Chapter 911 You Don't Understand
The three of them talked in the room for half an hour and finally decided that Shen Congyao should receive treatment at a hospital in Beijing first.
And use the best medical equipment; only if things really get to the worst point should we consider whether to go to Qin Ce.
In fact, Shen Boyan had no expectations for Qin Ce's so-called medical technology.
In his mind, everything in the medical field is the most authoritative and must be based on facts.
The claim that Qin Ce, a businessman, developed medicines and technologies is hardly credible.
Of course, Shen Boyan did not deny that there was another reason why he thought this way.
A maid knocked on the door. "Second Young Master, the Master wants you to go to the back garden. He wants to talk to you."
Shen Zhongting and Shen Jilan both turned their gazes to Shen Boyan.
Shen Boyan remained calm, his expression revealing no emotion.
Shen Zhongting reached out and patted his shoulder, advising, "Dad's health isn't good right now. If he tells you you don't love him, just pretend you didn't hear it and don't take it to heart."
He was afraid that Shen Boyan still held a grudge against Shen Congyao because of what had happened before.
Shen Boyan didn't know what Shen Congyaoyao wanted to say to him, but he had a general idea.
He nodded silently, then followed the servant to the back garden.
Shen Congyao sat back in his recliner. The weather in Beijing was cooler than in Chongqing, so a servant brought him a thin blanket to cover himself with.
When Shen Congyao saw Shen Boyan, a look of relief appeared in his eyes. He pointed to the chair in front of him and said, "Sit down."
Shen Boyan walked over and sat down.
Tea sets were placed on the small table in the middle, and the teapot contained Shen Congyao's favorite tea.
Shen Congyao picked up a cup and poured one for Shen Boyan. "Boyan, try this tea. It tastes quite good."
Shen Boyan glanced at it but did not take the teacup.
Shen Congyao's expression froze for a moment, then he belatedly said, "I forgot, you young people don't like to drink tea."
Both of them stared at the distant scenery and fell silent.
After a long silence, Shen Congyaocai slowly spoke, breaking the silence.
"Boyan, I know you hate me."
Shen Boyan didn't look at him, but said calmly, "You're overthinking it."
As children, we have the least right to hate our parents.
Besides, whether he hates her or not is irrelevant now; at least for Shen Boyan, he no longer cares.
Since the outcome is already unchangeable, the process itself is no longer important.
Shen Congyao turned his head and glanced at Shen Boyan. The person in front of him was clearly his own son, and the two had an inseparable blood relationship.
But at this moment, they are no different from strangers.
Shen Congyao seemed to recall some unpleasant memories, and a trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes.
"Your mother's death is a wound that I've never been able to erase from my heart all these years. I know you hate me because of this, but Boyan, I also have my own unavoidable difficulties."
Shen Congyao's tone was full of guilt and remorse.
But Shen Boyan remained unmoved. "I understand. You must have your own difficulties."
“No, you don’t understand,” Shen Congyao said. “You don’t understand how difficult it is to go from having nothing to gaining a foothold and a place in the capital.”
“Your mother suffered a lot when she was young. Back then, the Shen family was not well-off, and your maternal grandparents did not agree to us being together. But your mother insisted on being with me and accompanied me without hesitation. We started a business together and traveled all over the country.”
The Shen family's current success is inseparable from the support of Shen Boyan's mother.
Later, the Shen family prospered in the capital, acquiring businesses and status. They thought their hard times were finally over, but fate played a cruel joke on them.
Shen's mother's health was deteriorating, and even though Shen Congyao hired the best doctors for her, it was only a temporary solution.
“You always felt that I was too busy with company matters and neglected to care for your mother, which led to her dying with resentment.”
Isn't that so?
Shen Boyan silently twitched the corner of his mouth, as if mocking him.
Shen Congyao sighed deeply, his eyes slightly red. "When we first discovered Shen's Group, your mother and I thought that as long as we could make money, that would be enough. But we gradually realized that to establish ourselves in this city and stand out among the many outstanding companies, just making money is not enough. Especially after your mother got pregnant and gave birth to your older brother, I became more and more dedicated to my work. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that I was obsessed."
Shen Boyan listened quietly to Shen Congyao's words without saying a word.
Shen Congyao said that he actually knew that his mother's mentality had changed because of her illness.
Especially after giving birth to Shen Boyan, the symptoms became more pronounced. She was often absent-minded, had wild thoughts, and was sensitive and suspicious.
Shen Congyao knew better than anyone that Shen's mother acted this way because she lacked a sense of security and longed to be loved and accompanied.
Although at that time they were financially well-off and didn't have to worry about basic necessities like food and fuel.
But this is precisely the crux of the problem.
After hearing the doctor's diagnosis, Shen Congyao also considered putting everything aside and spending quality time with his mother.
But at that time, the Shen family was in a critical period of development and could not leave Shen Congyao.
Mother Shen did not want Shen Congyao to be affected by everything in the Shen family because of her, since the Shen family was the pillar of the Shen family and everything to Shen Congyao.
However, Shen Congyao did not truly abandon his mother, nor was he the kind of person who would disregard his family for personal gain.
Precisely because he cared about Shen's mother, he did everything he could to stabilize the Shen family and make things better for them day by day.
At the same time, they also look forward to Shen Boyan and Shen Zhongting growing up quickly so that they can take over the Shen family business.
However, later, when all three sons grew up, things did not go as smoothly and beautifully as Shen Congyao had imagined.
Despite objections, Shen Zhong went abroad, got married, and settled down.
Shen Boyan was young and impetuous. He originally wanted to train him for a few years, but he was too hasty and made things backfire.
Shen Jilan was immature, and even if he was forced to study economics, it was of no use.
Shen Congyao originally planned to hand over the company to one of his three sons, then put everything aside and stay with his mother.
But fate didn't give him time, nor did it give Shen's mother a chance.
For so many years, whenever Shen Congyao thought about how he didn't even get to see his mother one last time, the deep self-reproach in his heart kept him awake all night.
For several years, he even needed sleeping pills to fall asleep every night.
As Shen Congyao spoke, he became increasingly agitated and coughed several times.
"Boyan, I don't blame you for holding a grudge against me because of your mother. If you have to blame someone, blame me for being so arrogant and conceited, thinking I could handle everything..."
