Chapter 290 Shen Zhong and his wife
Carrying the gifts given by Wu Jinyu, Lu Jiu and his friends started their return journey after staying for a few days. Nothing happened on the way this time, and the group returned to Yanjing smoothly.
After returning to the destination, Shen Cheng went to report the details of the mission to his superiors.
Lu Jiu followed Shen Jufeng back to the Shen family, but unfortunately they were unlucky. When they returned, they met two people they had not expected to appear.
The army car dropped them off in front of the villa. Jiang Wanwan waved to them and left without being a third wheel, while Shen Jufeng held Lu Jiu's hand tightly and took her home.
A car stopped behind them and a handsome and elegant middle-aged man got out. Then a woman in gorgeous clothes got out. She looked extremely beautiful.
When the man saw the familiar figure in front of him, his originally calm expression suddenly turned gloomy, "Chen Jufeng!"
She called her boyfriend by his full name and in such an aggressive tone. Lu Jiu thought someone was looking for trouble, so she turned around and saw a middle-aged man and woman.
Although Shen Jufeng hadn't heard this voice for a long time, he still knew who was calling him. He turned around and saw that it was indeed the familiar person.
"Mr. Shen."
The handsome uncle's face twisted for a moment, "What an unfilial son! That's how you address your own father."
Lu Jiu took a look and found that this was the father who had a very bad relationship with Shen Jufeng. When she saw the face next to him, she knew who Shen Jufeng looked like. His mother was indeed very beautiful, and even at her age, she was still very attractive.
The woman's words ruined her pretty face. "Oh, he's vying with you for the position of power. He doesn't even consider you his father. He even treats me, his mother, with disrespect."
Shen Zhong retorted, "It's all because of your inferior genes."
Li Shuxue was furious. "What good is your Chen Zhong? I think he is most like you in his bones."
Shen Jufeng didn't want to listen to the couple's quarrel, as they always blamed each other endlessly.
Lu Jiu followed him without saying a word.
The Shen Zhong couple were still arguing when they saw the protagonist they wanted to mock turned and walked away. They immediately became furious, "What kind of attitude is this? We are still standing here!"
Unfortunately, the other party ignored them and quickly walked back home.
The couple felt embarrassed and their anger soared as they hurried to catch up.
·
When she saw Shen Jufeng sitting on the sofa peeling an orange, Li Shuxue lost her ladylike demeanor and shouted, "I'll just say you're an ungrateful person. I worked so hard to give birth to you, but this is how you treat me."
Shen Jufeng continued to peel the fruit in his hand slowly and methodically.
Shen Zhong's face was gloomy. "How did you come back?"
Lu Jiu has gained some new insights. It turns out that not all parents love their children.
Shen Jufeng finally looked up at them, "What are you doing here?"
Li Shuxue shouted angrily: "This is the Shen family. Your father is the eldest son of the Shen family. It is natural for us to come here."
Shen Jufeng put the peeled orange in Lu Jiu's hand and said, "Grandpa has already told me that he didn't let you live here, so what on earth are you doing here? If you still want to talk nonsense, get out now."
Chen Zhong was stunned for a moment. His son looked almost the same as before the apocalypse, except that there was an outsider here. He couldn't afford to lose face, so he changed the subject. "Did you come back because of this girl?"
Lu Jiu frowned, but Shen Jufeng's hand covered her clenched hand, so she opened her hand and interlocked her fingers with his.
The couple also sat down and looked at her with a critical gaze.
Shen Jufeng: "I don't want to ask for the third time, what do you want to say here."
Li Shuxue originally wanted to mock Shen Jufeng and ask if he relied on Lu Jiu to come back, but when she heard him say that, she swallowed the words she was about to say.
Chen Zhong put on the airs of an elder and finally told them the purpose of their visit today. In fact, they had already known that Shen Jufeng was coming back today and had been waiting in the villa area before.
"You know how long you've been missing. The Shen family needs someone to take charge. The old man found that person somewhere, but you're back. And since you took so long to come back, you probably haven't started your career yet. You might not be very clear about the situation in Yanjing, but you just need to understand that the Shen family's business cannot be left to outsiders."
Shen Jufeng's expression was normal. "Mr. Shen is still the same as before. He always misses the point when talking about things. If the Shen family doesn't hand over the management of you to professionals, how can it be given to you?"
The veins on Shen Zhongqi's forehead bulged. Wasn't this a mockery of his lack of ability?
"You are just an ordinary person. If you want to take charge of the Shen family again, the people below may not accept it. And your uncle is devoted to the army. Do you really want the Shen family you have developed to be handed over to outsiders? Now that the old man is still alive and can keep things under control, what about in the future?"
Lu Jiu understood that he meant to give the Shen family to him, how could he say it.
Not to mention that Shen Zhong doesn't have the ability, and his relationship with Shen Jufeng is so bad, not to mention that Mr. Shen is still here.
Lu Jiu looked behind the couple. Li Shuxue was initially displeased that this girl, who came from nowhere, was staring at her. But after a closer look, she realized that she wasn't staring at her, but...
"You know I'm still alive, yet you're still thinking about the future of the Shen family after I die."
Li Shuxue was so shocked that she stood up immediately. When she turned around, she saw Mr. Shen, whom she had always been afraid of. When she first climbed up to Shen Zhong and came to the Shen family, the look in Mr. Shen's eyes made her scared. The old man saw what she was thinking at a glance, but did not stop Shen Zhong from marrying her.
Shen Zhong also quickly stood up, "Dad."
Although Mr. Shen is old, his aura remains unchanged. "What did I say at the beginning? The Shen family inheritance has nothing to do with you. Give up that idea. Why do you think the world has changed and my words are no longer effective?"
Shen Zhong lowered his head, sweat dripping from his forehead. "Dad, I'm also thinking about the Shen family. Do we really want an outsider to manage the Shen family forever?"
Old Master Shen snorted, "Don't even mention that Xiaofeng is back now. Even if he never comes back, the Shen family will always be managed by Tao Wenhua. It's not your turn. Get out!"
Shen Zhong didn't dare to disobey the old man. He didn't dare to say a word and went out as if he was running for his life.
·
After seeing the annoying Shen Zhong and his wife leave, the old man sat down with a kind smile on his face, "Sorry to have embarrassed you, Xiaojiu. You and Xiaofeng are together as a business between the two of you. Don't worry about Xiaofeng's parents."
Lu Jiu just squeezed Shen Jufeng’s hand, “I know.”
Seeing their tightly clasped hands, Mr. Shen nodded with satisfaction. "I thought it would take a long time for you to resolve the matter in the western region this time, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon."
Shen Jufeng did not hesitate to praise Lu Jiu, "It's still thanks to Xiaojiu. She was the one who caught those two people."
Then I told Mr. Shen what happened at that time.
Finally, it was also said that they would follow Chen Cheng to the eastern area first, and then go all the way east to the edge of the earth.
Old Master Shen stroked his beard and said, "Speaking of going to the edge of the earth, I've heard that the authorities have this intention before, but it has never been implemented. It's just that the journey is long, and we don't know how dangerous it is. You must be careful along the way."
I have reached the end of the story. Although the progress is fast, I have finished what I need to write. It should be finished by the end of this month. I will also start to refine the next book. I don’t know if you want to read a long novel or a novella. You can leave a message.
