The Cherished Old Time - C204
The sickroom was silent, only the sound of heavy breathing could be heard.
Everything was peaceful and peaceful until Yu Meng broke the silence.
Shang Hui saw that Yu Meng’s eyes were filled with nervousness, and felt his heart warm up. He called her name softly, hoping to let her feel at ease.
“Are you alright?”
Shang Hui shook his head, Shang Wujin’s voice sounded beside his ears.
“Miss Yu said it already, a tiger doesn’t eat its prey. Am I really going to do this to my own son?”
Yu Meng turned around and looked at Shang Wujin who had a gentle face. She kept reminding herself not to be fooled by his hypocrisy and kindness.
“Not necessarily.” As long as Shang Hui was fine, she had nothing to fear. “Your son is lying on the sickbed, don’t you know how much you have tortured him?”
It seemed that Yu Meng’s attitude was too aggressive, Shang Hui couldn’t help but remind her.
“Little Meng, don’t talk to my dad like that.”
It seems that you don’t care about Shang Wujin. On the contrary, he is curious.
“You’re not afraid of me anymore?” Shang Wujin reminded her: “You almost died in my hands.”
Yu Mengmeng couldn’t help but furrow her brows as she recalled the events that had transpired that time. Her tone sounded indifferent.
“Do you want to kill me or do you want to kill me? It has nothing to do with whether I’m afraid or not.”
Shang Wujin looked at Yu Meng meaningfully.
“I seem to understand why my son likes you so much.”
Yu Meng said bluntly, “You don’t understand.”
Shang Wujin raised his eyebrows, “Oh? “Why?”
“Because you don’t know what love is.”
“Yu Meng!” Shang Hui was finally unable to endure it any longer and berated Yu Meng harshly.
However, Shang Wujin raised his hand at this moment, making it suitable for Shang Hui to remain calm. “It’s fine, I want to hear what she has to say.”
“I have nothing to say.” Yu Meng said lightly, “Everyone’s way of life is different. Some people live for the sake of their name. Some people live for the sake of standing at the peak of power. Some people live just for the sake of being happy and doing what they like with people they like. “Therefore, people like you and me are fundamentally different, there’s no need to continue.”
Shang Wujin looked at Yu Meng, appreciation slowly appearing in his eyes.
This woman was independent, brave and loyal. The most important thing was that she was smart and would not waste her energy on things that she did not need anymore.
After a long while, Shang Wujin finally spoke.
“I have seen all of your actions in this period of time. But I am not biased towards any person, nor is more so than Shang Duo, nor towards Shang Hui. ”
Yu Meng remained silent as she listened.
“In the end, whoever can survive and place what I want in front of me will become the successor of the merchant.”
Shang Wujin said as he shook his head in disappointment.
“Unfortunately, none of them managed to accomplish that.”
A large portion of the Shang clan’s underworld resources had been taken by Tan Yubai, it could be said that their losses were extremely heavy.
“The Shang family has always been strict with their rewards and penalties. If you do something wrong, you will still be punished.”
Yu Meng frowned. “What do you want?”
“I’ll give you three days. Either return the goods from the merchant or give me a satisfactory answer.”
In the end, it all came to an end because of her dreams, and it still made sense.
“Dad …” However, Shang Hui, who was beside her, could not bear to let Yu Meng bear such a huge pressure. He opened his mouth, wanting to help her take it off, “I can … …”
“Alright.”
Yu Meng interrupted Shang Hui and stared at him, “Three days, I will give you an explanation.”
Yu Meng took one last look at Shang Hui, then looked around and slowly retreated behind his.
Standing in the doorway, she suddenly said her last apology.
“I’m sorry, we shouldn’t have interfered with each other’s lives in the first place.”
The words were said for Shang Hui to hear, but she left the room after she finished speaking, not giving Shang Hui the chance to reply.
