In his palm was a gemstone necklace, gleaming in the sunlight.

Lin Qingtong was stunned for a moment. Was this a gift for her?

Shen Tingting noticed this and pushed Lin Qingtong forward a little, raising her eyebrows in a gesture.

Seeing that Lin Qingtong hadn't taken it yet, Shen Tinghe flicked his finger, turned his head, and his deep, hoarse voice came over.

"Do you like the gift I gave you?"

Lin Qingtong eventually took the necklace.

She held it in her palm; the warmth of Shen Tinghe's body still lingered on it, sending a warm current through her heart.

While the two were interacting, Shen Kaixuan had already taken all of Shen Erye's assets, leaving him with several million in savings, and then turned to look at Dongfang William.

Shen Kaixuan handed the black card to William Dongfang, saying, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Dongfang."

He then made a polite remark.

"You are welcome to visit our Shen family anytime."

He had only made a polite remark and never expected someone like William Dongfang to take it seriously.

William put the black card into his suit pocket, raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

"Is tomorrow okay? I'd like to attend the Shen family's banquet?"

His gaze lingered on Shen Tinghe's direction, and he went straight to the point.

"You and the beauty behind you come too."

Shen Tinghe's gaze deepened, and he decisively refused.

"Oh no, I just attended my own memorial service and need to rest for a while."

He said this in a very serious tone, with a touch of dark humor.

Generally speaking, people would mind saying such things.

But Shen Tinghe didn't mind.

Of course, he didn't mind someone like William from the East and spoke directly.

"Then I'll hold a memorial service for you tomorrow, you can come and attend."

He looked at the huge black-and-white photograph. "Is the size okay? Or could it be a little bigger?"

Lin Qingtong overheard his conversation with Shen Tinghe and thought to herself.

This guy is definitely a madman.

Shen Tinghe simply replied, "Do as you please."

William of the East didn't ask any further questions and left with his entourage in a grand procession.

Those present breathed a sigh of relief and took their leave.

Today was truly an absurd day. I thought I was here to attend a banquet, but when I walked in, I found out it was a memorial service.

They immediately thought Shen Tinghe was in trouble, but unexpectedly he came back to life.

The once powerful Second Master Shen was wiped out in an instant, and suddenly became a nobody in the Shen family.

The power center of the Shen family is being pulled back and forth between Shen Tinghe and Shen Kaixuan, and they are looking forward to seeing how Shen Kaixuan will deal with Shen Tinghe next.

They had expected to see some excitement, but Shen Tinghe simply led Lin Qingtong and Shen Tingting outside.

Shen Kaixuan didn't pursue the matter further, but simply told the guests to leave.

Only Master Shen sat on the grass, crying helplessly like a child.

Lin Jiaorui stood there, her face deathly pale. What was she going to do now? She thought she had hooked up with a rich man, but now she had nothing.

She placed her hand on her abdomen, which was devoid of warmth, and her eyes flickered slightly.

No, she wants to make a fortune off this so-called child.

Lin Jiaorui glanced around before her eyes locked onto Madam Shen.

She went up to Madam Shen and pleaded tearfully for mercy.

"Sister, please help me beg Master Shen for the sake of the child. Second Brother is still so young."

She reached out to pull Madam Chen, but as soon as she touched her, she shook her off, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Don't touch me, I'm dirty."

How dare such a despicable person call her "sister"? She even used her child to threaten her.

She had been hoping for trouble from that scumbag Second Master Shen for a long time, so how could she possibly speak up for him?

Lin Jiaorui's eyes flickered slightly, and she leaned to the side.

After she fell to the ground, she clutched her stomach and cried out in surprise.

"Sister, why did you push me? I was only trying to help my second brother. My stomach hurts so much."

"Help! My stomach really hurts so much, call and get me to the First Hospital."

Master Shen, who was standing nearby, came to his senses. The money was gone, but he still had an unborn son.

Perhaps he can turn his life around with his son, but Shen Kaixuan will never be able to have children.

He immediately rushed to Lin Jiaorui's side and scolded Madam Shen.

Why did you push her? Why blame others when you can't have children yourself?

Shen Yibo was not the biological son of Madam Shen, but rather the son of a woman Shen Erye kept outside the marriage.

Madam Shen's face was extremely ugly, and she spoke through gritted teeth.

“She was faking it; I didn’t push her at all.”

She tried to step forward and pull Lin Jiaorui aside to explain, but Second Master Chen slapped her across the face.

“If anything happens to the child, you’ll be kicked out of the Shen family.”

Divorcing in high society and returning to one's parents' home is an extremely difficult and ridiculed affair.

If she could have gotten a divorce back then, Madam Shen would have gotten rid of that scumbag man long ago.

But no, because their marriage was originally a business arrangement.

Master Shen carried Lin Jiaorui and walked outside.

Lin Jiaorui grabbed his collar and shouted, "Second brother, take me to the First Hospital. I have all my prenatal checkups there, and the doctors there are familiar with my situation."

Without suspicion, Second Master Shen got into the car, bypassing everyone else, and headed towards the First Hospital.

Sitting in the car, Lin Jiaorui pretended to have a stomachache, and Master Shen, who was beside her, analyzed the situation with concern.

"You absolutely must give birth to this child, you understand? This is the key to turning our lives around."

Lin Jiaorui was stunned for a moment, then pressed Master Shen for an answer.

Why do you say that?

A cold glint flashed in Master Shen's eyes. "Because my elder brother can't have children, and we are siblings from the same mother, sending this child to my elder brother might get us some company assets in return."

"So remember, this child must be saved."

Lin Jiaorui's face turned deathly pale; she never imagined that such a thing could happen.

She immediately grabbed Master Chen's hand and exclaimed, "My stomach doesn't hurt anymore, let's go back, everything's alright."

But Second Master Shen was not at ease and stared at her warily, questioning her.

"Weren't you just saying your stomach hurt? Were you lying to me?"

Lin Jiaorui panicked immediately and hurriedly shook her head in response.

"I'm not lying to you, why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, let's go to the hospital for a checkup."

Only then did Master Shen believe it, and he leaned back to one side, closing his eyes to rest.

Lin Jiaorui immediately contacted an acquaintance at the hospital and paid someone to make a fake report for her.

According to her plan, a suitable child would indeed come into her life after ten months of pregnancy.

Only one of her old classmates knew about the plan and helped with it.

No one expected Lin Jiaorui to be so audacious.

At the entrance of the Shen family villa, Lin Qingtong saw Second Master Shen carrying Lin Jiaorui away.

Suddenly, she saw something fall off Lin Jiaorui.

She picked it up and saw that it was actually a remote control.

The remote control only has the brand name on it, with no other words at all.
