Chapter 245 Some things should end here
The butler was waiting on the side, respectfully calling him "Young Master".
Sheng Huaian raised his eyebrows, Lin Xian'er bit her lip and called him brother softly.
The man directly threw the car keys to the housekeeper, and pretended not to hear the word "brother".
When he is in a good mood, he might even look a little more friendly, but when he is in a bad mood, no one's words will work.
Sheng Huaian combed his hair with his hands. His smoky gray hair was flowing and carefully styled with hairspray, but his face was still so dazzling.
He was tall and straight, with long legs. When he passed by Lin Jun, Lin Jun seemed half a head shorter than him.
"A rare guest." He sat on the sofa opposite Grandpa Sheng, crossed his legs, and looked lazily.
"How can you talk like that?" Mr. Sheng was slightly displeased, "Xian'er is calling you."
"No, I can't bear to be called brother by the eldest lady of the Lin family." Sheng Huaian always speaks harshly, and smiled at Lin Jun: "My own brother will be jealous."
Lin Jun stared at him coldly. Old Master Sheng glanced at him. Lin Jun smiled and said, "My cousin is really funny. He can always turn a pleasant gathering into something full of gunpowder."
"What's wrong with your face? Did you walk too much at night and get beaten up?" Sheng Huaian had bad intentions and took out a lighter and cigarette from his pocket. When he was about to light it, he finally gave up smoking.
"That's right, Jun'er, what's going on your face?" Old Master Sheng stared at him with a frown.
There was a bruise on Lin Jun's forehead and an obvious scratch on his lips, which could easily be overlooked if one did not look carefully.
Lin Jun's mouth hurt when he spoke, and this was all thanks to Chu Junyue.
Upon learning that Qin Si and others were going to the casino, he threatened the train conductor to leave early. Unexpectedly, Chu Junyue came over. At first, he didn't take any action. He just asked, was Chu Junyue stopping the train from leaving to protect his brothers or for Jiang Zhiyue?
"She's just a lowly maid. Brother-in-law, if you like this kind of role-playing, there are plenty of women in my club. I can introduce a few to you without telling Xian'er."
After saying this, he was beaten by Chu Junyue.
Afterwards, he reminded Lin Xian'er with his man's intuition, but he didn't know whether Lin Xian'er cared or not.
After all, during the holidays, Chu Junyue never followed Lin Xian'er to visit the old man, but just asked someone to send a gift.
Lin Jun sneered and said, "Some blind thugs have fled to the capital. I don't bother to fight with them."
"The mobs will only grow larger and larger." Grandpa Sheng said, "So I came back in person this time to make sure that there will be no unrest in our territory. But I also rest assured that both of your uncles are capable."
Mr. Sheng’s eldest son and daughter were born to his first wife, while his second daughter and youngest son were born to his second wife.
The current head of the Sheng family is terminally ill and has reached the late stage of treatment. He does not have much time left. Mr. Sheng plans to transfer power to his youngest son. Once the approval from the Presidential Palace is issued, the matter will be settled.
The more critical the moment, the more anxious he became.
Old Master Sheng patted Sheng Huaian and said, "Don't be too sad about your father's affairs. I won't tell you about the past, but you should go to places like clubs less often and stop causing trouble for your father."
This is about the incident some time ago when Sheng Huaian was secretly photographed in a nightclub. The club was Lin Jun's territory, so how did the photos get leaked?
The man smiled but said nothing.
Mr. Sheng was silent for a moment, "You are still investigating that matter. After so many years, do you have any news?"
When we started talking about serious matters, everyone around us pricked up their ears.
Lin's mother also sat opposite the sofa. She was a tall lady, young and graceful. The Lin siblings inherited her most obvious feature, which was her arrogant, cold-blooded and icy eyes.
Lin's mother's smile was very friendly and sad.
"Father, you and Big Brother have always had something on your mind. We, the younger generation, understand this. We don't know how Sister Yue'er is doing..."
Sheng Yue, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, was lost by a servant when she was less than five years old. Her whereabouts and life or death are still unknown.
Speaking of which, this was because the Sheng family was too powerful back then, and Old Man Sheng governed the three states very well, which to a certain extent offended the local dignitaries and made enemies with others.
According to the maid who was arrested afterwards, she dared to take the risk only because someone offered 30 million yuan.
The remittance account came from overseas. The enemy that Grandpa Sheng found out met with a car accident abroad not long after. Everyone said that it was God's will that he deliberately lost someone else's child, and he ended up getting retribution for it.
The clues ended here. The original wife tried hard to track down the murderer, but she had white hair at the age of 30 and passed away within a few years.
Mr. Sheng knew that he had let his wife down and continued to investigate. However, due to his busy official duties and the fact that he would have to rely on his mistress to manage the large family within a few years, he married a new wife after being persuaded by everyone.
Later, as he was blessed with a son, his new family and child filled his heart. He began to forget about his eldest daughter who brought him painful memories and took away his wife.
Old Master Sheng didn't want to mention it, as if as soon as he closed his eyes he could see his wife's blaming expression and resentful eyes.
Mr. Sheng was silent for a while, choking with sobs as he spoke.
"No matter what the result is, your father can't bear the blow. Huai'an, he handed this matter to you, because he doesn't trust me as a father."
He almost let it go.
But this matter became the eldest son's obsession.
"People always have to look forward." Mr. Sheng wiped away his tears, "Some things should end here."
......
The day of the trip arrived.
Xiao Jingrun made the appointment very early in the morning. Jiang Zhiyue didn't want the man to pick her up at the door of Gu's house, so she took out her cell phone, hesitated for a long time, edited a text message and sent it.
This time, the other end didn’t reply immediately.
Gu Zhaoye did not rest during the holidays and went to the company with his father. Jiang Zhiyue was worrying about how to tell him, so it would be better for them to stagger their meeting opportunities.
When she left the servants' building, Mrs. Tang, who lived across the street, followed her downstairs, "Hey, Zhiyue, wait a minute!"
This maid building is where gossip gathers.
Jiang Zhiyue had been Gu Zhaoye's study partner since she was a child, and she had been talked about by countless people behind the scenes, especially those who had children at home, who always thought that she had taken their daughters' place.
Mrs. Tang was one of them, so she often came to harass Jiang Wanrou to borrow things, saying that they were given to her by the Gu family anyway.
Jiang Zhiyue didn't want to pay attention, but the other party refused to give up and said gloatingly: "Have you heard? Madam is going to find a fiancée for the young master. This time it's not the old lady's idea, but Madam herself."
Jiang Zhiyue didn't say anything.
The maid showed a look of regret, "What a pity, some people claim to be childhood sweethearts, but still end up with nothing!"
