The next morning, Chen Fang woke up, quickly washed up, went downstairs, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Suddenly, a loud "bang" was heard.
It was the sound of a door closing. Shen Fang turned around and saw that it was Shen Lanlan. Shen Lanlan was still sleepy. Shen Fang walked up to Shen Lanlan and smelled strongly of alcohol.
Shen Lanlan smiled at Shen Fang and said, "Good morning, Uncle. What delicious food have you made? I haven't had breakfast yet."
At this moment, Shen Kun, sporting an afro, also came downstairs and saw Shen Lanlan.
"Hey, Lanlan, you're back! Did you get drunk again last night?"
Shen Fang looked at Shen Lanlan speechlessly.
"What are you doing, an 18 or 19-year-old girl like you who doesn't come home every night?"
Shen Lanlan pouted: "It's not every night, it's just once or twice."
Shen Fang glared at Shen Lanlan.
Are you talking back to me?
Shen Lanlan quickly waved her hand: "I was wrong, Uncle, I shouldn't have stayed out all night."
Shen Fang rolled his eyes at Shen Lanlan. This child was hopeless. If it were a boy, Shen Fang wouldn't care. He could just laze around, chasing girls as he pleased, since he wouldn't suffer any losses. But Shen Lanlan had grown up following him around since she was little, practically like his little sister. This was unacceptable.
Shen Fang pulled Shen Lanlan to the sofa.
"Lanlan, how can you do this? A person should have value in this world. How can you live like this, indulging in a life of luxury and debauchery every day?"
"Uncle, let me ask you, why do people work so hard? Isn't it for a better life?"
Shen Kun nodded: "Of course."
Shen Lanlan smiled: "Since I already have a life that most people never have in their entire lives, why should I work hard? I was born in Rome, isn't it good to just live a life of luxury and indulgence? Uncle, you are a genius, you are destined for great things. I just need to follow behind you, cling to your leg, and I'll never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of my life. Besides, starting a business is a waste of money. Didn't you say that rich kids should stay at home obediently and not go out to start businesses, or they'll squander the family fortune? I'm just following your teachings, being a good-for-nothing, and living a good life. I'm being so obedient, aren't you happy?"
Shen Fang gave Shen Lanlan a tap on the back of the head. She's quite the chatterbox.
Shen Lanlan looked aggrieved after being hit, pouting, "Why did you hit me?"
Shen Fang was furious: "You mean that because I'm too successful, you don't need to work hard? The reason you don't work hard is because you have a good background. You don't start your own business or work because you want to lie down and be a good-for-nothing, and not squander your money? What kind of twisted logic is that?"
Shen Lanlan pouted: "Isn't this all what you said? Have you forgotten that 5 years ago you put your arm around my shoulder in our village and said that you would definitely let me be a good-for-nothing who just lazes around and that you would lead Shenjia Village to glory? Now everything you said has come true. Shenjia Village is glorious, and I just want to be a good-for-nothing. It's because you let me be one."
Shen Fang stroked his chin: "Is that so?"
Shen Lanlan nodded: "It was you who said it yourself. There were many people there at the time."
Shen Fang... it seems there really is such a thing. Back then, he tricked the people of Shenjia Village into starting a business with him, and then he bragged that Shen Lanlan wouldn't have to go out to work and earn money anymore, and could just stay at home and be a good-for-nothing who does nothing but eat and wait to die. It turns out that's where the source of all this lies.
Chen Fang... "Ahem, Lanlan, I was just bragging and fooling people back then. How could you take it seriously? Everyone should have a goal in life."
Shen Lanlan started throwing a tantrum: "I don't care, I don't want you to tell me that you want me to be a good-for-nothing. I just want to live a life of leisure and wait to die. I'll listen to you. Uncle, how can you change things so easily? I've been playing around for years. Now you want me to change? How can you do this? You don't keep your word."
Shen Fang... I'm so pissed...
“Lanlan, you can live your whole life without doing anything, and you can never spend all the dividends from the village. But if you do this for a long time, you will feel empty inside. This won’t do.”
Shen Lanlan shook her head: "I won't listen, it's just nonsense."
What the hell is this? How dare they be so audacious?
Shen Lanlan picked up Shen Lanlan and slapped her buttocks a dozen times.
The blows were so hard that Chen Fang's hand hurt.
Shen Lanlan started to whine.
Shen Fang said coldly.
"You'll stop giving me pocket money from now on."
Chen Lanlan, tears streaming down her face, cried out, "You hit me! I'm going to tell Grandma! You have no conscience! You promised to raise me! Waaaaah..."
Shen Fang was speechless; that brat was hopeless.
Shen Kun chuckled and said, "Third Uncle, your method is useless. Watch me."
Shen Kun sat down on the sofa and patted Shen Lanlan on the shoulder.
"Lanlan, do you know that your great-uncle recently made over 1 billion yuan? He even gave Liu Qianqian a supercar, a luxury watch, and a Porsche. You've always wanted one, haven't you? If you're good, your great-uncle can get you one too. It'll be so cool to drive it around like that."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lanlan immediately stopped crying.
"More than 1 billion, Uncle, you've made so much money, why won't you buy it for me? I'm your own granddaughter."
Chen Fang.....“The watch!!!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Lanlan immediately hugged Shen Fang's leg, crying and making a scene.
“I don’t care, I want it too. You’re so good to your great-aunt, you can’t treat her like this by driving her around.”
