At these words, Shen Liangchuan narrowed his eyes and fixed his penetrating gaze on Shen Xiu.
Laughing heartily, Shen Xiu patted Lu Nanze’s shoulder and remarked, “Now the world belongs to the young. Mr. Lu has good thinking and we, the Shen Family, are glad to be working with you.”
Lu Nanze smiled arrogantly and replied, “Thank you for the kind words, Uncle Shen.”
He turned to look at Shen Liangchuan and continued, “I heard that this is your eldest son.”
Before he could finish, Shen Xiu interrupted him, “Son? I have no such son. The only son I have is Zihao.”
At this point, he looked at the guests that had gathered and proclaimed, “I, Shen Xiu, will recognize that I’ve never had such a dishonourable son as Shen Liangchuan!”
Most of the guests were the elites of the industry.
When they heard this, they turned to look at Shen Liangchuan.
Qiao Lian stood by his side and clenched her fists tightly in anger.
Was this man his real father?
He seemed more like an enemy.
Did he not know that Shen Liangchuan was hitting a low point in his career? Yet this man was stirring more trouble!
No wonder Shen Liangchuan had trouble securing funds. Obviously, Shen Xiu was behind it all.
And now, after publicly embarrassing him, who would collaborate with Shen Liangchuan and invest in his company?
Qiao Lian harshly bit her lip and felt compelled to speak up, but Shen Liangchuan made an unhurried comeback, “You said the same eight years ago and everyone already knows it. Is there a need to repeatedly remind everyone? I think the guests who can make it to this event don’t have memory issues.”
Shen Xiu immediately narrowed his eyes upon hearing this retort. “You—”
“Mr. Shen, if there’s nothing else, I’m going in. I am not obliged to stand here and listen to your loud and arrogant tirade.”
Having said that, Shen Liangchuan walked towards the entrance of the venue with Qiao Lian.
However, as he walked past Shen Xiu, the latter reached out his hand and pulled him back.
With narrowed eyes, Shen Xiu gave Shen Liangchuan a hard stare and then finally shifted his gaze to Qiao Lian.
Lowering his voice, he said to Shen Liangchuan, “You unfilial son, getting yourself in such dire straits over a woman, is that worth it?”
Shen Liangchuan narrowed his eyes as he turned to look at the elder Shen.
Shen Xiu continued, “If you divorced this woman, Mr. Lu would give me all the profits of our project. And when that happens, I’ll take you and your Mom back, how’s that?”
Shen Liangchuan raised an eyebrow at this suggestion.
Staring directly at Shen Xiu, he suddenly asked, “And Mei Feng will agree to this?”
Shen Xiu sneered, “You think Mei Feng is like your Mom? This was her own suggestion! You are, after all, my son.”
Shen Liangchuan suddenly found this funny.
Shen Xiu was considered a successful man in the industry but at home, Mei Feng had him twirled around her little finger like a lost soul.
To think that she would suggest such a ridiculous idea.
Shen Liangchuan narrowed his cold and distant eyes and finally expressed his anger, “If you wish to have two women at your service, you should look for a young lady. My mother is not interested in you!”
Shen Xiu immediately fumed upon hearing this. “You—”
Ignoring him, Shen Liangchuan continued walking towards the venue.
It was only after he disappeared from their view that Shen Xiu took a few breaths and calmed down.
Lu Nanze smiled as he said, “Don’t worry, Uncle Shen. He’ll come looking for you when he hits a dead end.”
