Gentle Beast [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 96
See the parent article (below)
The old man Shen is already seventy years old this year.
Although he is consciously maintaining health and exercising, he is not as energetic as he was when he was young.
Especially the children and grandchildren of the family are not worried, fighting openly and secretly for this little family property.
He has been shrewd all his life, how can he not see the tricks?
The round table is covered with various delicacies, and even the air is full of the aroma of food.
It’s a pity that the Shen family was busy fighting at home, and not many people focused on dining.
Only Ye Liuying, as half of Shen’s family, ate a few more chopsticks with gossip.
Shen Xingzhou was feeding her thoughtfully.
He enjoys it, and treats everyone else as air.
After dinner, Old Man Shen took Ye Liuying to the study, and Shen Xingzhou followed him cheekily.
On the contrary, it made the mood of those who stayed outside complicated.
“Do you know how to play chess?” Old Shen simply felt that the people outside were annoying.
He would have a lunch break later, so he just brought Ye Liuying in to talk.
“It will be…” It’s not too powerful.
Ye Liuying looked at the white jade chessboard in front of him hesitantly, not knowing much about her own strength.
However, before she could speak, Shen Xingzhou smiled and put her on her shoulder, “It’s okay. Grandpa is a famous stinky chess player, you can just play with him casually.”
“You stinky boy.” Old Shen gave Shen Xingzhou an angry look.
Shen Xingzhou hurriedly coaxed the old man to sit down, “I haven’t played chess with Ah Ying before. Grandpa, you got ahead of me.”
“It’s not a good thing to play chess with you.”
The old man Shen retracted his gaze and turned to chat with Ye Liuying, “Don’t worry about those people outside, they won’t affect you. Wait for me…”
When he got together, Shen Xingzhou knew what he was going to say later, “Grandpa, you can live a long life, don’t curse yourself.”
“Girl, come first.” Elder Shen gave the black child to Ye Liuying, picked up a white chess and held it in his hand, “Let’s ignore him.”
Shen Xingzhou, who was ignored, touched his nose.
He glanced left and right, and decided to sit down beside Ye Liuying.
Shen Xingzhou’s chess skills were much higher than those of the old and the young. After watching it for a while, he knew that the two were about the same level.
“Who did you learn from, Ah Ying?” He didn’t care too much about the outcome, but instead started chatting with Ye Liuying.
“A classmate.” Ye Liuying watched the chess game intently, and only took the time to reply to him after she made her move.
The simple four words made the vinegar king squinted, “…male or female?”
He asked seriously, but Ye Liuying didn’t think anything was wrong.
“Male classmate.” She said casually.
“A high school classmate?” Shen Xingzhou was particularly serious about such trivial matters, “Why didn’t I hear you mention it?”
In fact it is.
Ye Liuying didn’t have many friends, and the few he knew were only after she went to college.
I really didn’t hear much about her mentioning high school.
What classmate would teach her to play chess?
Shen Xingzhou frowned, realizing that the problem was not simple.
“Why are you a big man like a mother-in-law?” The old man Shen who watched the whole process rudely watched the excitement.
Ye Liuying held back her smile and looked at Shen Xingzhou, silence is better than sound.
In front of the old man, Shen Xingzhou couldn’t say much.
“I’ll just ask.” He touched his nose, a little faceless.
“I think you are idle.” Old Shen looked at Shen Xingzhou lightly as if he was implying something.
Ye Liuying vaguely sensed the old man’s implication.
On the other hand, Shen Xingzhou pretended to be stupid and said, “Grandpa, don’t dislike me, I will rush back tomorrow afternoon.”
The old man Shen didn’t say much.
But Ye Liuying could feel that the old man was not disappointed.
Fortunately, the old man was used to this kind of Shen Xingzhou, and when he finally won chess, he felt happy.
“It seems that your classmate is not very good.” Shen Xingzhou said with a smile.
“…” Is this thing unresolved?
Ye Liuying pretended not to hear, and listened carefully to what Mr. Shen said.
The old man has always been very generous to the younger generation he values.
Different from the time they met at Zhong’s house, Ye Liuying accepted Shen Xingzhou’s marriage proposal some time ago, and the meaning of visiting the door was very different.
No matter how the Shen family disagreed, they all gave her a greeting.
What’s more, he was the only old man in the family who really loved Ye Liuying, so the gift he gave was naturally extraordinary.
The precious white jade antique jewelry box contains a set of gem-set gold heads.
The craftsmanship is exquisite, and it makes people reluctant to take their eyes off when they are opened.
This is what even the dressing box gave her.
Ye Liuying couldn’t refuse, so she could only politely thank Mr. Shen.
“Grandpa really likes you.”
When Shen Xingzhou and Ye Liuying left the study, they whispered in her ear, “That’s the jewelry my grandma used.”
Ye Liuying tilted her head to look at Shen Xingzhou, “Why do I feel that you are more nervous than me?”
He reminded her over and over again.
Grandpa loves you.
Grandpa loves you very much.
Grandpa really likes you.
She was almost brainwashed by him.
“That’s not right.” Shen Xingzhou took Ye Liuying’s hand, “Look at the sweat on my hand.”
Ye Liuying didn’t care about this, “Then you still pull me?”
She pretended to be disgusted, but she was pulled even tighter by Shen Xingzhou, “Let you feel my nervousness.”
“Your mother doesn’t seem to like me very much.” Ye Liuying recalled the meal just now and frowned.
“She doesn’t like me either.” Shen Xingzhou shrugged nonchalantly, “She didn’t dare to show us a face anyway.”
He was used to this kind of treatment.
But Ye Liuying saw him at home for the first time.
No wonder Shen Xingzhou said that he was not very willing to stay here.
Except for the old man Shen, he doesn’t seem to care about anyone in this family.
Ye Liuying saw it in her eyes and couldn’t help but pulled Shen Xingzhou’s arm and said, “You bow your head.”
“Huh?” Shen Xingzhou hummed in confusion.
She didn’t need to say more, he just lowered his head in cooperation.
“I’ll be with you in the future.” Ye Liuying gently touched Shen Xingzhou’s head, her voice screaming softly.
Shen Xingzhou’s heart moved, and he hugged Ye Liuying with one hand in a conditioned reflex.
“Are you in such a hurry to marry me?” He was not formal, but the corners of his mouth raised high but revealed his good mood.
If Ye Liuying could see it, he would probably laugh at him.
Laugh like a fool.
“Shameless.” Ye Liuying broke away from Shen Xingzhou without much effort.
After all, it was in the Shen family’s old house, so it was a little bit bad to be seen by the Shen family.
Shen Xingzhou didn’t have any worries in this regard, and swaggered to the front hall.
Shen Zhining left beforehand.
Shen Zhishan’s family has no patience, they have all left, and now there is only one Shen Xinghui who still lives in the old house.
“Second aunt, don’t be angry.”
Shen Xinghui is young, and he has learned 100% of the kung fu of talking to people and talking to ghosts. “Brother Xingzhou will definitely listen to your words…”
“Who is your brother?” Shen Xingzhou heard this sentence as soon as he came out.
He frowned and looked at Shen Xinghui with a little disgust in his eyes.
“…I’m sorry.” Shen Xinghui lowered her eyes and recognized her mistake quickly.
“Xinghui is your sister no matter what.” Shu Rou couldn’t see it, she put on a mother’s posture, “You have a better attitude.”
Shen Xingzhou taunted the corner of his lower lip, “You are generous.”
“What’s your attitude?!” This is not the first time that Shu Rou has been cold-faced by Shen Xingzhou.
It doesn’t matter if her husband doesn’t love her, her son is getting farther and farther away from her.
“So you don’t have to be difficult for yourself to get along with me.” Shen Xingzhou ignored Shu Rou and took Ye Liuying out of the old house.
Shu Rou was so angry that she almost smashed the cup on the table.
“You raised a good son!” She looked at Shen Zhixing angrily, as if she was unwilling to maintain her superficial calm.
“You also know that you didn’t raise him.” Shen Zhixing was still indifferent.
His thoughts are deep, and he doesn’t mind marrying a vase, but now he feels more and more stupid about her.
As long as she is smarter, she should think about how to save her son.
She was fine, and she pushed people away with all her might.
Shen Zhixing didn’t want to talk to Shu Rou any more, he turned around and caught up with Shen Xingzhou.
Tongcheng in July and August is the hottest time.
The old house has its own dark and cold attributes, and even the wind blowing on the front is much cooler than other places.
“Azhou.”
Shen Zhixing stopped Shen Xingzhou before he went out.
“Wait for me for a while.” Shen Xingzhou said to Ye Liuying comfortingly.
He stopped and turned around to see Shen Zhixing, but there was not much reaction on his face.
“What did Grandpa say to you?” Shen Zhixing stood in front of him and asked tentatively.
Shen shi is still in the hands of old man Shen.
But the old man lacked energy, and he started planning to give up his power last year.
And the heir he was most satisfied with happened to be his son.
Shen Zhixing is only in his forties now.
He still has spare energy, and being crushed by his son is not a situation he likes to see.
“I heard that your little lover is pregnant?” Shen Xingzhou asked without answering.
What was said at the dinner table was so stupid.
It’s no wonder that Shen Zhixing would be willing to have another child with Shu Rou.
Shen Xingzhou watched the women around Shen Zhixing change one after another.
The current one is undoubtedly the most capable, and he is still able to conceive his child.
“Grandpa left it to me, I can’t give it to outsiders.”
Shen Xingzhou did not intend to listen to Shen Zhixing’s explanation, and left without hesitation.
The car stopped at the door.
Ye Liuying sat in the co-pilot and could see Shen Zhixing not far away.
“Are you really going to have a younger brother or sister?” She was forced to listen, and she couldn’t help but be curious.
“That woman is very evil.” Shen Xingzhou shook his head, “It’s not certain that she will be born or not.”
Ye Liuying has a half-sister herself.
She originally thought that Zhong Ji was quite scum, but compared with Shen Zhixing, it was a bit underwhelming.
It’s really a hard-to-read scripture for every family.
“Don’t be sad.”
Ye Liuying turned sideways and stroked Shen Xingzhou’s hair again, “Even if she was born, she certainly wouldn’t look as good as you.”
“Are you still addicted to touching?” Shen Xingzhou grabbed Ye Liuying’s hand.
“You won’t let it touch?” Ye Liuying asked with a deliberately stern face.
Shen Xingzhou also had no reason to refuse.
He blinked his eyes, and leaned his head in unprincipledly, “As long as you like it.”
“I don’t like it now.” Ye Liuying said, turning her face away.
“Then I like to be touched by you, okay?”
Shen Xingzhou followed the shameless principle to the end, “You can touch wherever you want.”
“…” No I don’t want to.
