After Shen Shi inherited all of the old man's shares, the person who was most furious was Shen's father.

The matter between Lin Han and Qi Xingxin was already a significant blow to him, but with the passage of time, it gradually wore off.

Now it's been dug up again and is still spreading like wildfire in the industry.

Although the divorce is now a thing of the past, these kinds of scandalous news stories about wealthy families have always been a hot topic of gossip.

Shen's father has also been ridiculed by people, some calling him a "sucker" and others calling him a "fool who was played by a woman."

In short, his reputation in the business world is roughly equivalent to that of Ramrett.

The more you lack something, the more you pay attention to it; Shen's father was particularly concerned about external opinions.

Because of their excessive attention, almost every word of these sarcastic remarks reached his ears.

The rumor that angered him the most was that Shen Shi was not his son.

Shen Shi and he had already done a paternity test, this is a completely false rumor.

But this absurd rumor angered Mr. Shen so much that he smashed several cups at home and didn't leave the house for a while.

He thought that since he was in such a miserable state, the old man should at least comfort him by giving him some property or a luxury car.

However, to his surprise, the old man gave all the shares to Shen Shi!

Let alone all of them, even one percent of the shares was something Shen's father wouldn't even dare to dream of.

The old man actually transferred it all to his son!

He has no position, no shares, and isn't it the age-old tradition for sons to inherit their fathers' businesses? Why did it fail for him?

Does that mean that if a son is disappointing, the father can give him no points at all?

Of course, as a rich second-generation who relies on his father for a living, even if Shen's father was angry, he didn't dare to argue with the old man.

So he angrily went to find Shen Shi.

"Your grandfather gave you all the shares?" Shen's father stormed into Shen Shi's study and questioned him.

Faced with his father's sudden accusation, Shen Shi nodded matter-of-factly, crossed his legs, and said casually, "Of course."

Upon seeing Shen Shi's attitude, Shen's father became furious and pointed at Shen Shi's nose, roaring, "Go tell your grandfather you don't want it! Or transfer half of it to me and your brother."

Overcome with excitement, Mr. Shen's face turned bright red with anger, and he slammed his fist on Shen Shi's desk, making a loud banging sound.

Unlike his father's anger, Shen Shi found his father's furious appearance amusing.

A man over fifty years old who has accomplished nothing still has the nerve to ask his son for things, and then he really couldn't help but laugh.

"What... are you laughing at..." Shen's father, who was in the middle of a rage, was bewildered by Shen Shi's laughter. He immediately had a bad feeling and his imposing manner diminished considerably.

"Laughing at you, my dear father." Shen Shi stood up expressionlessly, looking his father in the eye, and said in a cold tone, "To be honest, don't you also think you're quite ridiculous, huh?"

After finishing speaking, Chen Shi tilted his head in confusion, expressing his doubt.

These words undoubtedly struck a chord with Shen's father.

His life was a joke; apart from having a good father, he accomplished almost nothing.

But the truth only made people angrier. Losing his temper, Shen's father became unrestrained and cursed at Shen Shi with a ferocious expression: "You don't even know if it's true or not, it's none of your business to talk about what Lin Han had with some wild man."

Upon hearing this, the previously intense atmosphere suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

This incident is an indelible pain for Shen Shi. Even now, he still remembers the scene when his drunken father grabbed his neck and called him a "bastard" when he was young.

The suffocating pain permeated his entire childhood.

Beneath the calm surface lurked a dangerous undercurrent; Shen Shi's icy gaze shot towards his father.

He walked step by step toward his father. In the quiet room where you could hear a pin drop, the sound of his shoes rubbing together was amplified infinitely.

"What...are you going to do..." Seeing Shen Shi closing in step by step, Shen's father sensed the danger and couldn't help but back away: "I'm your father, do you have a death wish to lay a hand on your old man!"

Shen Shi's fierce and unfamiliar expression terrified Shen's father, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

"Didn't you say I was a bastard?" Finally, with nowhere left to retreat, Shen Shi grabbed his collar and slowly tightened his grip.

Looking at Shen's father's face, which was red from being strangled, Shen felt a strange excitement, and then tightened his grip even more.

"What...do you want to do..." the father asked with difficulty, struggling to catch his breath.

Seeing his father, who was so cowardly he was about to wet his pants, Shen Shi patted his purplish-red face and said with a relieved tone, "If Shen Tianqi didn't have you as his father, I might really hate Lin Han."

After saying that, he released his grip, and Shen's father fell to the ground, panting heavily.

Despite the pain in her throat, she retorted fiercely in a hoarse voice, "You don't despise Lin Han? Your mother is a disgrace! A disgrace to the Shen family!"

Shen's father could not tolerate anyone praising Lin Han, especially since that person was Shen Shi.

Lin Han's deception and betrayal of him are unforgivable. His failed life is all because of this woman; she ruined him!

Shen Shi saw through his thoughts at a glance, forcing Shen Tianqi to look directly at him, his smile like Satan in the night.

"Why are you so resentful? You should be grateful to my mom, shouldn't you? Her existence gives you an excuse for your failed life, isn't that a good thing?"

As Shen's father's face grew paler, Shen Shi continued his merciless critique, saying, "After all, it's hard to make you admit you're a piece of trash."

Then, as Shen Shi had hoped, he saw that his father's face was deathly pale, and he was slumped on the ground, unable to utter a single word.

The source of my childhood pain turned out to be so fragile.

"Haha." Shen Shi laughed triumphantly twice, ignoring his father who was dejected and disheartened, and pushed open the study door and walked out.

The argument between the father and son alarmed the entire Shen family, and eventually even the old man found out.

However, the old man, who always believed that harmony in the family brings prosperity, did not react at all this time.

He knew this grandson he had raised himself; he was a kind-hearted man, and as long as his bottom line wasn't crossed, Shen's father would be financially secure for the rest of his life.

Sigh! You reap what you sow. I can't control them for many more years anyway, so I'll just let them do whatever they want.

The old man decisively chose to go on vacation abroad.

While Shen Shi became the largest shareholder of the Shen family, Jiang Beiwan took advantage of Qi Xingxin's downfall to become the head of the Jiang family.

Qi Xingxin was sentenced to 25 years in prison for multiple crimes, including instigating murder, tax evasion, and money laundering.

Given his age, he was basically destined to die in prison.

Jiang Beiwan hated his father to the core, and didn't even hire a defense lawyer for him, choosing instead to let him spend a few more years in prison.
