Chapter 859: Chapter 859: Uprooted
The elevator arrived, and Ye Shu released her hands, giving Sheng Kun a cold glance, “Sheng Kun, I’m not clear about the feud you have with the Old Mansion, nor do I want to know. Anyway, from now on, the matters of the Old Mansion have nothing to do with me, not one bit, so please stay away from me, otherwise, I fear you can’t handle the game!”
Sheng Kun watched Ye Shu walk out of the elevator, observing that graceful back, and said softly, “You and your mother are alike, both so elegant, it’s just a pity your mother wasn’t as decisive and strong as you…”
As Ye Shu drove back to Heng Kong Entertainment, her thoughts became clearer. She felt that today’s incident went wrong because she was too complacent.
From discovering Du Shiniang’s private meeting with the investment consultant, to Bai Yueru’s involvement in stock transactions with Trading Bank, to Ye Shu’s interference, leading to an unexpected stock surge!
All signs indicate that this was Du Shiniang luring her, step by step pushing her into a position of opposition with Bai Yueru. Moreover, Du Shiniang and Sheng Kun must have an unspeakable connection!
With Bai Yueru’s limited intelligence, even Du Shiniang alone could leave her utterly defeated, let alone having a crafty Sheng Kun outside. The uprooting of the Sheng Mansion is only a matter of time…
But none of this concerned her anymore; she couldn’t be bothered with so much. Finally, she could focus entirely on Heng Kong Entertainment, leaving family affairs for others to worry about.
After Bai Yueru returned to the Old Mansion, she closed the door and locked herself tightly in the room.
She thought of that tape recorder, of the secret between Ye Shu and Xiao Kai, of how Ye Shu deliberately hindered her today to prevent her from making a name for herself. So she found that tape recorder, picked up a hammer, and smashed it into pieces!
Unless the Old Lady personally revealed the truth, this secret, Ye Shu would never know. Let her keep worrying forever!
Sheng Shaochen received a call and hurried back to the Old Mansion. Seeing Du Shiniang standing in front of his mother’s room, and his mother Bai Yueru’s door tightly closed, he asked, “What on earth is going on?”
Du Shiniang whispered, “Mom is probably too upset today, she doesn’t even want to eat, and she’s not responding when called. I’m afraid something might happen, so I called you.”
Sheng Shaochen walked over and kicked the door open. Upon entering, he saw Bai Yueru curled up on the bed, sobbing with her back to him.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Sheng Shaochen reached out to gently shake his mother’s shoulder.
“Leave me alone!” Bai Yueru pushed her son’s hand away.
Sheng Shaochen frowned deeply, sitting by the bed, “I’ve never seen you like this since I was a child. Tell me, what’s bothering you?”
“Is it useful to tell you? Just go, go, go!” Bai Yueru said as she suddenly got up, tears streaming, holding her son’s arm to push him out the door.
“Mom, if you keep this up, I’ll really leave!” Sheng Shaochen held his mother’s shoulders down, pressing her to sit back on the bed.
Bai Yueru looked more and more wronged, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but it’s useless even if I do. This is all women’s business. It’s better if you, a big man, don’t get involved.”
“Women’s business?” Sheng Shaochen laughed, “Could it be related to Ye Shu? What did she do to you?”
