Just then, Li Hongxia and Shen Yurong returned from the court. Upon seeing them, Gao Muyun rushed forward and asked with concern, "How did it go? Is there a result?"
Shen Yurong's gaze swept past her and went straight to Shen Jiahao on the sofa: "12 years, are you satisfied?"
Shen Jiahao showed no remorse: "She only lost 12 years of freedom, but the company lost nearly 100 million overnight!"
After losing such a large sum of money, do you really expect him to spend more money to bail people out?
He would never do such a stupid and worthless deal.
"I have a very important guest today, don't go crazy here with me," Shen Jiahao said coldly.
Shen Yurong glanced lightly at everyone in the room.
Zhang Yuan crossed his legs, displaying arrogance and rudeness.
Even when his elders were sitting opposite him, he remained arrogant.
Shen Jiahao looked at Shen Yurong with reproach and dissatisfaction.
However, when she looked at Zhang Yuan, there was also a hint of flattery and ingratiation in her eyes.
Shen Xinrou sat on the sofa with her head down, and you could not feel any of the joy or sorrow that love should have on her.
Gao Muyun remained very low-key.
After Zhong Yan was arrested, she became the sole mistress of the house.
But she was very clever, showing none of the arrogance or swagger that comes with rising to power. She remained kind to the servants in the house, winning their hearts.
Li Hongxia, on the other hand, maintained the attitude that "we are all one family".
Now she has no other desires but to protect her Shen Xu.
May he grow up safe and healthy...
...
Looking at the people in the room, all of whom harbored ulterior motives, Shen Yurong suddenly felt a chill run through his body.
He ignored Li Hongxia calling him from behind and left home without looking back.
He drove aimlessly along the road.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at Ning Wan's takeout restaurant.
After escorting Ning Wan back, Shen Fu left for the company.
There were only Ning Wan and Xu Xiufeng in the boxed lunch shop, busy serving the lunchtime customers.
When Shen Yurong arrived at the shop, he met Ning Wan's rather surprised gaze. He said in his usual tone, "I'd like a bowl of noodles."
Ning Wan hesitated for a long time before finally asking, "You're not planning to smash up my shop, are you?"
Shen Yurong looked at her expressionlessly and said, "I just came out of the courthouse and I don't want to go back in."
Hearing this, Ning Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She went to the kitchen and cooked a bowl of seafood noodles for Shen Yurong, then went back to her own business and ignored him.
Ning Wan waited until the busiest time at noon had passed before looking back.
Shen Yurong had already left at some point.
From that day on, Shen Yurong would come to the store to sit for a while every noon.
I always order just one bowl of noodles.
Ning Wan was always worried that he would deliberately cause trouble in the store, but she was clearly mistaken.
Shen Yurong would always sit quietly in a corner, and after finishing his noodles, he would leave quietly.
A week passed just like that, and Shen Yurong successfully gained five pounds...
...
Experiments have shown that eating pasta really does make you gain weight easily...
...
On the eighth day, Shen Fu took the initiative to find Shen Yurong and asked, "What exactly do you want to do? Coming to the store every day is affecting the customers' appetite."
Shen Yurong was stunned for a long time before he gradually realized what was going on: "...Are you insulting me, saying I'm so ugly that it makes people lose their appetite?"
“Otherwise?” Shen Fu didn’t beat around the bush and said, “If you want to take revenge on me and oppose me, there are plenty of ways. But please come directly at me.”
Such a despicable method has always been his specialty.
How can we let others take away our privileges?
"No, that's not what I meant..." Shen Yurong quickly explained, "I just wanted to come and take a look around..."
He used to have few true friends.
He has quite a few drinking buddies.
However, Zhong Yan had always opposed his association with those scoundrels.
Annoyed by the nagging, Shen Yurong simply stayed at home.
Later, I became obsessed with playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) and watching family dramas at 8 pm, which made me even less inclined to go out.
When Zhong Yan was in trouble, he not only couldn't find a way to save her, but he also had no one around to discuss things with or offer advice.
This also made Shen Yurong realize that his knowledge was limited and his understanding was even more shallow.
At this time, he especially admired Shen Fu.
At such a young age, when he didn't understand anything, he achieved everything he has today through his own hard work.
During his time at Ning Wan's shop, Shen Yurong experienced a long-lost sense of peace and tranquility.
Many customers come to the restaurant every day, but Ning Wan can always call out the name of every single one of them.
She treated them like both a close sister at home and a caring friend away from home.
Ning Wan's cooking skills are excellent, and the food prices are very cheap.
A bowl of seafood noodles with meat and shrimp costs 15 yuan, and a boxed meal with two meat dishes and one vegetable dish also costs only 15 yuan, with free refills available.
In this small boxed lunch restaurant, 15 yuan is enough to fill your stomach.
The guests chatted while they ate.
They'll talk about how nice the weather is today, and how much work they have to do.
They would ask each other which stores were having sales and which stores had the best deals.
Their conversation revolved primarily around life.
There's not so much deceit and backstabbing; I just want to live a simple life.
Buy a car and a house, and watch your child get into university and make a name for themselves.
Compared to them, Shen Yurong felt that his own hardships were nothing but whining.
