Second Son of Shen Family coldly snorted, "Big brother, did you hear what he just said? It’s clear he doesn’t respect dad or either of us older brothers."
Shen Juanzhi, completely unyielding, found their attempt to use their seniority to pressure him laughable. He only acknowledged them as brothers by name, otherwise they meant nothing to him. "In short, I have one thing to say—if you want my company, forget about it. I advise you, don’t harbor thoughts you shouldn’t, otherwise, I can’t say what I might do." He thought they were fools to try to snatch the company from him, probably having forgotten how he dealt with them in the past.
Although Shen Juanzhi was the youngest, he was the boldest, fearing neither heaven nor earth, daring to do anything. Since childhood, neither of his older brothers was a match for him.
Second Son of Shen Family, enraged, jumped up and cursed, "You ungrateful brute, devoid of all moral principles. These years, if it weren’t for the Shen Family’s covert support, could your company have reached its current size? If it weren’t for your identity as the Third Young Master of Shen Family, who would partner with you? You achieve a little success and then fail to recognize your own parents and brothers!"
"Since you think so little of my company, why bother coveting it?" Shen Juanzhi raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm, "Or is it that in your eyes, even the trash in someone else’s hands still smells sweet?"
Second Son of Shen Family was infuriated once more!
"Fine, you won’t listen to me, then let father come and speak to you himself."
He couldn’t believe that the third would not obediently hand over the company when the time came.
Second Uncle Shen spat out his words and left hastily.
Uncle Shen looked at Shen Juanzhi, then back at the other, speaking with a face full of confusion, "Ah, look at the mess this has become, we’re all family, why can’t we speak nicely?" He then turned to Shen Juanzhi, "Third, father hasn’t been well lately, you should visit more often. We’re all blood, what can’t be resolved? Are you really going to hold a grudge against him for a lifetime? And recently, dad always mentions you, he clearly misses you and Wei, as his children, we should lower our heads first, just to please the old man."
His big brother usually acted the good guy, but what he truly desired, probably only he knew.
Shen Juanzhi sneered, "Big brother’s words are so carefree, expecting me to use the company I’ve painstakingly built over more than a decade just to make an old man happy. Forgive me, brother, I can’t do that. I think I’d rather continue being the unfilial son!"
Uncle Shen’s expression turned awkward, he said sheepishly, "I’m just concerned about father’s age, worried about his health. Well, never mind, if you have your plans, just forget what I said just now. Aside from the company matter, you should still visit dad."
"I got it!" Shen Juanzhi replied dismissively.
He actually thought the old man was quite healthy, given he still had the energy to scheme for his daughter and the company.
Uncle Shen knew he wasn’t welcome to stay, so after a few brief words, he left.
Only after the group had left did Shen Weiyi come downstairs.
Shen Juanzhi looked at his beloved daughter and said, "Don’t worry, as long as I’m alive, no one can take what’s yours."
"But they will go back and badmouth you in front of the old man," Shen Weiyi wasn’t worried about losing her possessions, but was concerned that the relationship between Shen Juanzhi and the old house would deteriorate further.
She didn’t mind, but was afraid that one day Shen Juanzhi would regret it.
"The old man has long since branded me as undutiful. They think they can take my stuff? Even if the old man himself comes, I won’t agree. All this is for your dowry."
"My dowry, I will earn it myself one day!" She didn’t necessarily need to rely on her father!
Shen Juanzhi: "Then spend it all, I’ve worked hard so others won’t benefit from it."
