There is a store diagonally across the street from Nanyi High School, which is also well-known in the capital.
Shen Mo bought it for An Ci once before, and An Ci liked it the first time she ate it. After that, every time she went back to the capital for the New Year, Shen Mo would often buy it for her.
There were not many people in the store at this time. Shen Mo ordered a strawberry flavored one, paid and left in a hurry.
Watching him return to the car, Shi Che glanced at what was in his hand, twitched his lips, and smiled a little helplessly.
He really gave him a difficult problem.
After Shen Mo fastened his seat belt, Shi Che started the car and left.
Half an hour later.
The car drove into the underground parking lot of a hotel.
Shen Mo left everything in the car and got off without taking anything.
Shi Che closed the car door and walked to his side. "Which floor?"
Shen Mo said, "The thirty-ninth floor."
The two looked at each other, and Shi Che raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "Let's go."
With a "ding" sound, the elevator stopped on the 39th floor.
The elevator door opened and looking out, I saw bodyguards in black standing on both sides of the corridor.
It’s a big scene.
But it's normal, after all, the old man's identity is there.
Shi Che walked out, and Shen Mo followed behind him. He lowered his eyebrows and the expression on his face was unclear.
He was stopped by the bodyguards after taking only two steps.
"Who are you two?"
"Let's go find Mr. Custer." Shi Che said calmly.
The bodyguard said, "Please wait a moment, we will go and inform them."
After saying that, he asked his companions to look after Shi Che and the others while he took out his cell phone and went aside to make a call.
Shen Mo glanced at the top suite at the end of the corridor and looked away absentmindedly.
After a while, the bodyguard came back after making a phone call.
He looked slightly respectful, "Please come in, both of you."
Shi Che and Shen Mo walked over, and just as they got close, the door opened.
What caught their eye was a middle-aged man in a black suit, his brown eyes looking at them with inquiry.
The next second, his gaze passed over Shi Che and stopped on Shen Mo's face, with a gleam of light in his eyes.
"Hello, Master Shen Mo, I am Lorraine. The master has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in." He leaned sideways and raised his hand to make a gesture of invitation.
Shen Mo followed Shi Che in with an expressionless face. The suite was very large, and Lorraine took them to the living room.
As soon as he stepped into the living room, Shen Mo noticed someone's gaze on him, and he looked up.
The curtains were closed, and the luxurious crystal chandelier reflected a soft light, shining on the old man's aged face. The blue eyes were staring at him, with a calm expression but with a sense of majesty that came from without anger.
The first time Shen Mo saw this man was in a photo. That time, he went to his father's study to look for books and accidentally saw a group photo. The photo only contained his father and the old man in front of him.
Later his father told him that the man in the photo was his grandfather, the head of the Custer family.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other.
After a few seconds, Mr. Custer shifted his gaze to Shi Che and smiled meaningfully.
"I didn't expect Karen to leave her son to you. Young man, you are quite capable."
He was able to evade the Custer family's search for so long without leaving any trace.
Shi Chequan thought he was praising him and smiled calmly, but he rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
If I had given the key to your Custer family, Xiao Mo would not have survived to this day and would have been torn to pieces by that group of ambitious people.
Mr. Custer turned his gaze back to Shen Mo, and said in a gentle tone, "Shen Mo, can we talk alone?"
He had a kind smile on his face, like an ordinary grandfather who loved his grandson. However, Shen Mo knew very well that the man in front of him had nothing to do with kindness.
Even his father said that the old man's heart was cold and could not be warmed up.
Shen Mo nodded. Old Master Custer smiled with satisfaction and turned to look at Shi Che. "Please wait a moment, Mr. Shi. I want to talk to you later."
Shi Che had no objection. He came here today mainly to support Shen Mo.
Old Master Custer winked at Lorraine and said, "Lorraine, make Mr. Shi a cup of coffee."
Lorraine replied yes, took Shi Che to the living room next door, and closed the door.
Old Master Custer pointed to the sofa opposite him and said, "Sit down."
Shen Mo was not reserved either. He walked over and sat down. The grandfather and grandson faced each other and suddenly fell into silence.
After a long while, Mr. Custer seemed to lose his patience and spoke first, "You look a lot like your mother."
Especially her eyebrows and eyes, which looked exactly like Shen Qing's, but upon closer inspection, she had some of Karen's charm.
Shen Mo didn't respond. He lowered his eyes with a dull expression.
Mr. Custer didn't feel embarrassed and continued to talk to himself, "Karen didn't tell me about your existence. I didn't know about your existence until the year he died."
After a pause, he changed the subject, "Has Karen ever mentioned me to you?"
Shen Mo still didn't speak.
Old Master Custer didn't care. "We arranged a marriage for your father, but he refused. He said he already had someone he loved and was determined to be with your mother."
He observed the changes in Shen Mo's expression as he spoke, "I think Karen should have told you more or less about what happened later. I strongly opposed him being with your mother and asked him to choose between the position of heir and your mother. As you can guess, he chose your mother."
"Because of this incident, I had a very unhappy relationship with him and even severed our father-son relationship."
There was no trace of emotion in Shen Mo's eyes. His father had mentioned some of these things to him before. He had been investigating the Caster family for the past two years and knew even more.
