"You can live here first." The Shen family's father and son took Shen Yu, who was crying all the way, to a luxurious apartment purchased by the Shen family on the Bund. Accompanying him were Shen Yan and Mrs. Liu, who had been working in the Shen family for decades.
"You just had surgery and need to recuperate. Don't think too much. Your sister will come over to accompany you often. When mom calms down, maybe you can go back." After all, he is a son who has been raised for 19 years. Even if he becomes an adopted son overnight, as long as this adopted son is not born from Mrs. Shen's affair, Father Shen still has the patience of a kind father.
Shen Yu was holding a family photo of five members of the Shen family in his arms, his eyes were swollen from crying. Being held in Chen Yan's arms, he nodded with sobs: "Mom, will you really forgive me?"
"Of course." Before the Shen family father and son could speak, Shen Yan spoke with great distress and persuaded: "Mom loves you so much, how could she bear to drive you out. She is just too angry now and can't change her mind for the time being. When Mom calms down, she will definitely miss you very much."
"When will mom calm down?" Shen Yu held the family photo and looked at his father and elder brother with tears in his eyes: "Will mom calm down if I find the real Shen Yu?"
This sentence made everyone silent. The Shen family father and son frowned, and their calm eyes swept over Shen Yan. Chen Yan pursed her lips feeling guilty and embarrassed, and for no reason she felt angry towards her own brother whom she had never met.
"I want to stay here tonight to accompany Xiaoyu." Shen Yan hugged Shen Yu and said angrily: "Anyway, Mom only cares about that son now, and doesn't want Xiaoyu, and even doesn't like me anymore. I don't want to go home either--"
"Shut up!" Shen Yan was interrupted by the furious father before she could finish her words: "If it wasn't you, how could this happen? That's your own brother. He has been missing for 19 years because of your prank, and I don't know what kind of difficulties he has encountered. Don't you feel a little guilty?"
"What's the use of feeling guilty? It would be bad if you compensate him properly after you find him back. We are the Shen family. If a poor boy who is struggling somewhere knew that his biological parents are the chairman of the Shen Group and the daughter of the Ye family, he would be overjoyed. You should think about what to do if you really find him back. Dad and eldest brother should know the temperament of the men in the Shen family best. Don't bring back a brother who is obsessed with money and wants to come back to fight for the family property. Then the Shen family will be in turmoil."
Hearing the angry rebuke of Shen's father, Shen Yan not only did not reflect on her mistakes in the past, but instead argued: "I really don't understand. Why is mom so determined to find that person back? Is our Shen family really short of a son? Xiaoyu is so well-behaved, so cute, and has lived in our family for 19 years. He is already a member of our family. Instead of trying every means to find an unknown outsider everywhere, you might as well persuade mom to accept Xiaoyu again. Anyway, China is so big and has so many people. There is not much hope of finding a baby lost 19 years ago. Instead of letting mom hold the fantasy of finding her own son, it is better to let her accept the reality. I don't understand, if that person can't be found in this life. Can mom still make a fuss for the rest of her life? Will our Shen family have to live in the shadow of not finding that person from now on?"
After coming out of the apartment, the Shen family father and son were silent all the way, and the atmosphere in the car was unusually quiet. It seemed that even the sound of breathing rising and falling in the chest could be heard.
After a long silence, Father Shen finally coughed lightly and broke the silence in the car: "Although Yanyan's words are too extreme, some things she said are true. It has been nineteen years. Back then, a baby was still in swaddling clothes. No one knew what he would look like, let alone where he is now. If you want to find someone, I'm afraid the hope is slim."
Chen Chen smiled slightly when he heard this. Her eyes were slightly drooped, and her thick eyelashes formed two shadows under her eyelids.
"No matter what, we still have to try our best to find him. After all, he is the flesh and blood of our Shen family. How can we let him live out there? If he is living a good life, that's fine. If he is not living a good life, maybe finding his relatives will be the motivation for him to continue living."
"But what if the child is really a bad person like Yanyan said?" Father Shen sighed. What kind of temperament do the men in the Shen family have? He has a strong desire for control, is highly aggressive, shrewd, and acts decisively. And interests come first. Just like Chen Yan said, if the real Shen Yu was a greedy waste with great ambitions but little talent, and he was trying to fight for the family property by relying on the few drops of blood in his body and was determined to cause unrest in the family, they might as well raise a well-behaved adopted son.
——Over the years, he spent a lot of effort in cultivating Shen Chen, and deliberately raised Shen Yu to have a naive character, just to avoid the unpleasantness of brothers fighting each other.
Most importantly, he had to consider Shen Chen's attitude. For the Shen family, having an excellent heir is enough.
Chen Chen curled his lips, half of his outline hidden in the night, and said calmly: "Don't worry, father. After all, he is the flesh and blood of our Shen family. As long as he is found, I, as the eldest brother, will naturally teach him well."
The men in the Shen family have a strong desire for control and put profit above all else. But the man who can be the head of the Shen family is definitely not a waste who is only afraid of his own bloodline. Shen Chen has been following his father in handling group affairs since he was in junior high school, and is now the executive president of Shen Group. I have seen many storms over the years. I'm almost thirty years old, how could I possibly worry about a child who has just become an adult?
"Don't worry, father. If I can be usurped by a 19-year-old kid as the heir, I will let him be the CEO of Shen Group." Shen Chen closed his eyes and felt the black Maybach speeding through the night. He asked calmly, "Or does father not have confidence in the heir you personally taught?"
"Of course not." Father Shen's eyebrows stretched, he knew that the son he taught himself would never let him down: "Since you are so confident. I will teach you to do this. It would be best if you can find someone, but if you can't, you should also be mentally prepared. After all, nineteen years have passed."
Chen Chen said nothing. His long fingers tapped absentmindedly on the door handle. I was secretly calculating in my heart.
Father Shen was silent for a moment. I couldn't help but ask again: "Where are you going to start?"
After all, he is his biological son. Although Father Shen said that he didn’t care, he was actually very concerned about him. After all, even the adopted son can live a glorious life under the care of the Shen family, so how can Father Shen bear to let his own son wander around?
Whether the person has a good character or not, and whether he or she will cause trouble to the family, are all troublesome things that you need to worry about after you get to know each other. But before finding the person, as biological parents, we just want our child to return safely.
As the heir trained by Father Shen, Shen Chen certainly understood what Father Shen was thinking. If the entire Shen family, Shen's father, Shen's mother, and even Shen Yu are looking forward to finding the child, and Shen Yan is the one who least wants the person to be found, then Shen Chen is the one who is truly indifferent to this matter.
It doesn't matter whether you can find it or not. He will do his best to do it, but that's it. In Shen Chen's view, finding the child back is just a responsibility. After all, the eldest brother is like a father. Since he is going to inherit the Shen family, he should ensure the interests of everyone in the Shen family. Otherwise, there are so many people in the Shen family, many of whom are smart and talented. Why must he be the heir?
"I have sent someone to contact the police. We are ready to take this opportunity to cooperate with the police and build a DNA database for missing children with funding from the Shen Group. The father's DNA will be entered into the gene bank first. At the same time, a reward of 5 million will be offered to anyone who provides clues. At that time, the Shen Group will hold a press conference with the Shanghai police to let all enthusiastic people help us find the child. At the same time, we will try our best to help other parents who have lost their children and help them find their own children."
"We can join hands with the police to set up an anti-trafficking fund. We can also have the Shen Group take the lead in organizing several charity auctions and cocktail parties. The Shen Group donates 10 million yuan to the anti-trafficking fund every year to help parents who have lost their children find their children free of charge."
Chen Chen arranged in an orderly manner: "I have communicated with Mr. Tan. Although they don't know the background of the surrogate woman, they still remember that the surrogate woman came to Shanghai to work. It seems that she came here with her sisters from the same hometown. After that group of people came, they basically worked as female workers in factories, and some worked as nannies. I will find a way to contact these people. It would be best if I could find the surrogate woman's hometown. As long as I find this woman, I can at least know the whereabouts of my younger brother. It's a pity that technology was not developed 19 years ago, there were no surveillance cameras, and there was no way to get a photo of the surrogate woman."
Father Shen nodded silently. He didn’t expect that his eldest son had arranged so many things in just a few days. And he arranged things so neatly. I can't help but feel emotional.
"This idea of cooperating with the police to establish a gene bank for lost children is really great. Not only can the police cooperate with us in finding children, but it can also promote the positive image of Shen's Group and its social contribution. If necessary, I can accept interviews from reporters. I believe that most parents who have lost their children feel the same way. Although it is painful, if Shen's Group can help more people find their children, it will be a great merit."
Hearing that Father Shen was always concerned about the gene bank, Shen Chen smiled slightly.
This is the man of the Shen family.

Note: In reality, the anti-trafficking NDA database was established by the Ministry of Public Security in May 2009. When I was looking up information before, I really thought the coincidence was incredible_(:з」∠)_
