As soon as Shen Hanshi opened the door, he saw Shen Wangjing sitting on the sofa in a suit.
Unlike his usual formal demeanor, Shen Wangjing leaned back on the sofa, his head slightly lowered, his angular face gloomy and uncertain. Even standing in the hallway, Shen Hanshi could clearly see a nearly burnt-out cigarette between Shen Wangjing's fingers. With the sound of the door closing, the long ash finally fell into the ashtray on the coffee table. There had already been several burnt-out cigarette butts in that ashtray before Shen Hanshi returned.
"Baby, I'm back." Shen Wangjing pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and stood up.
"Dad." Shen Hanshi, who had been expressionless just now, smiled when he saw his father, and he threw himself into Shen Wangjing's arms.
"Dad, why did you come back so early today?" Chen Hanshi raised his head and looked at his father, joy overflowing from the corners of his eyes.
Shen Wangjing is usually still in the company at this time, but no matter how busy the company is, Shen Wangjing will rush back to have dinner with him.
"Come out for dinner with me today and I'll introduce someone to you." Shen Wangjing's black eyes looked deeply at Shen Hanshi.
"Do you want to change clothes?" Chen Hanshi was wearing a school uniform today.
"Whatever, just having a meal." Shen Wangjing glanced up and down at his son.
"Then I'll change my clothes." Chen Hanshi changed out of his school uniform and put on a slightly more formal outfit that highlighted his slender waist and long legs.
After going downstairs, Shen Wangjing opened the passenger door for Shen Hanshi first, just like he did when he drove himself, and then sat in the driver's seat.
Shen Wangjing is extremely serious and meticulous in his work, and he clearly rewards and punishes his subordinates, but he can be said to be doting on his son, and he always obeys Shen Hanshi in everything.
Shen Hanshi's mother was a classmate of Shen Wangjing in the class next to her, and was one of the many girls who liked him when they were in school.
Shen Hanshi's mother was a bit vain. The young and beautiful girl coveted the Shen family's money. Like many other young girls who were just beginning to fall in love, she was madly infatuated with this cool and handsome boy. She even resorted to some despicable means to secretly get pregnant with his child, in an attempt to enter the Shen family's house legitimately and become Mrs. Shen.
After knowing that she was pregnant, she did not tell anyone. Instead, she took the money that Shen Wangjing had given her and secretly hid in another city to take care of the baby. She did not inform Shen Wangjing until the day of delivery.
Unfortunately, this shrewd woman didn't expect that she would have a difficult delivery. She didn't even have the chance to see the man she loved so much and her newborn son, Shen Hanshi, for the last time before she passed away. When Shen Wangjing rushed to the small hospital, he only saw Shen Hanshi being hurriedly carried out of the delivery room.
Shen Wangjing took the baby from the nurse's hands, and his usually calm black eyes were now a little rippled.
Shen Wangjing couldn't help but think, perhaps this was the bond of blood. Before this, he had never imagined what his child would be like. Who knew, suddenly one day, this child was in his arms, small and soft, needing his care.
Shen Wangjing took Shen Hanshi back to the Shen residence and announced to the outside world that Shen Hanshi was the legitimate grandson of the Shen family. As for the identity of Shen Hanshi's biological mother, the Shen family members kept silent tacitly.
Shen Wangjing initially wanted to follow his mother's advice and leave Shen Hanshi at the Shen residence to be raised by his parents. But who knew the little boy, before even a month old, had already learned to recognize people. Perhaps it was because the first person he saw upon entering this world was Shen Wangjing that he instinctively became attached to him. Shen Wangjing had only been with him for a few days, but he couldn't leave his father anymore.
As soon as Shen Wangjing handed him over to his mother, the little guy burst into tears, as if he didn't want his father to leave him. Seeing Shen Wangjing stop by when he heard the crying, Shen's mother coaxed her precious grandson while comforting him, "Wangjing, this child is amazing. He knows how to recognize people in just a few days. Don't worry about going to work. The child will be fine after crying for a while."
Shen Wangjing watched the child's tiny body struggling desperately in Shen's mother's arms, and when he thought of the things that the company had not dealt with in the past few days and the large and small meetings that were still waiting for him, he left without looking back.
At night, Shen Wangjing was still working overtime in the brightly lit office when he suddenly received a call from Shen Zhai, "Wangjing, the child has been crying all day since you left today, and he spit out the milk he was feeding. Now he seems to be a little hot. Do you want to call a doctor to take a look?"
Shen Wangjing heard the anxious voice of Shen's mother and the faint cry of the child on the phone, and quickly picked up his coat, comforting Shen's mother by the way, "Mom, don't worry, I'll call the doctor. I'll be back now."
When Shen Wangjing arrived at the Shen residence, the doctor was already taking Shen Hanshi’s temperature.
"How is the doctor? How is my grandson?" Mother Shen listened to the weak cry of the child beside her, and she was very anxious. I hope nothing happens to such a young child.
"It's nothing serious. He has been crying for too long and has a low fever. Wipe the baby's body with warm water several times and let him drink more water to ensure he is well hydrated. Also, comfort the baby and tell him to stop crying. Such a young child can't stand crying all the time." The doctor put away the equipment after saying this.
Shen Wangjing leaned over to touch the baby's head, and it was indeed a little hot. But the magical thing was that as soon as Shen Wangjing's hand touched the baby's head, the baby stopped crying.
Shen Wangjing looked at the little man lying on the bed with a complicated expression, then picked up the child with tears on his face, looked at the child's unsteady breathing, and gently patted his back with his hand.
Seeing that the baby stopped crying, Shen's mother, who was standing next to her, quickly asked the confinement nanny to make some milk powder for the baby, and asked the nanny to bring some warm water to wipe the baby's body and change his clothes.
"Mom, you go and have a rest. The confinement nanny and I will be here." The baby opened his big watery eyes in Shen Wangjing's arms, looking so cute and lovely.
"Okay, you should go to bed early after the child falls asleep." Mother Shen was still a little worried about the baby, but Father Shen next to her saw that his wife had been worried all day, and kept persuading her to go to bed early.
Mother Shen followed Father Shen back to the room reluctantly.
After the baby recovered from his illness, Shen Wangjing originally wanted to take the baby back to the apartment from the Shen residence, but Shen's mother was worried, so Shen Wangjing also lived in the Shen residence. He only brought him back to the apartment when Shen Hanshi went to school.
Taking advantage of the interval between traffic lights, Shen Hanshi stretched out his hand to play with Shen Wangjing's big hand with distinct joints, just like he did when he was a child.
Shen Wangjing let Shen Hanshi's white and slender fingers touch the back of his hand, and rubbed Shen Hanshi's red fingertips when the green light was about to come on.
“Baby, how are you doing at school recently?” Shen Wangjing put his hands on the steering wheel.
Shen Wangjing was raised strictly according to the standards of a wealthy heir from a young age. Although he had a loving mother, Shen's mother, he also had to endure hardships. Shen Wangjing graduated with honors from a prestigious foreign university and immediately inherited his own company upon his return, shouldering the responsibilities of the family. He became a famous young man in Beijing.
Shen Wangjing personally took care of his only child, Shen Hanshi, from childhood to adulthood, and raised him from infancy. However, he did not strictly require him to follow the standards he had when he was a child. Shen Hanshi came from an aristocratic private school and had never suffered any hardship in studying, but fortunately, he inherited the high IQ of the Shen family and his grades were very good.
"Not bad." Even in an aristocratic private school full of young masters and young ladies, Chen Hanshi's family background is among the best, but he has always been very low-key in school. In addition, he is relatively cold in school, so few people dare to approach him.
As soon as Shen Wangjing drove the car into the hotel, Shen Hanshi saw through the car window a graceful young woman standing at the hotel gate looking forward to it.
Shen Hanshi's originally happy face turned cold. He saw the woman's eyes light up when she found Shen Wangjing's car coming in.
Shen Wangjing got out of the car to help Shen Hanshi open the door.
Before Shen Hanshi got out of the car, the woman who was at the door of the hotel just now was already standing next to Shen Wangjing in an intimate manner.
"Wangjing, this must be Hanshi, he's even more handsome than you!" The woman smiled generously at Shen Hanshi, full of charm.
"Baby, this is Miss Yang."
Chen Han pursed his lips and said coldly, "Hello."
Shen Wangjing noticed his beloved son's little mood and calmly put his hand on Shen Hanshi's waist and hugged him. He said to Yang Xin, "Xiao Xin, let's go in first."
"Okay, I've already ordered the dishes. They're all the ones Xiaohan likes to eat, as you always told me." Yang Xin kept smiling and didn't mind Chen Hanshi's cold attitude towards her at all. After all, she was about to get married with Shen Wangjing, and by then she would be Chen Hanshi's stepmother. It was normal for Chen Hanshi to be on guard against her.
When they arrived at the private room, Yang Xin naturally sat next to Shen Wangjing.
"Xiao Han, this is the gift I prepared for you. Don't blame me for taking so long to meet you. After all, your father and I have been together for a while. I should have told you earlier. In fact, I have wanted to get to know you for a long time." Yang Xin stood up and handed the gift she had prepared long ago to Chen Hanshi.
Chen Hanshi sat still, and he said coldly, "Auntie, you have been with Dad for a long time. Are you Dad's girlfriend? Dad didn't even tell me." Chen Hanshi seemed to be talking to Yang Xin, but his eyes were staring straight at Chen Wangjing who was standing next to him.
"Baby, I'm sorry. I was wrong about this." Shen Wangjing knew he was wrong, and patted Shen Hanshi soothingly with his big hands.
Yang Xin also smiled apologetically, "Xiao Han, your father didn't tell you because he was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it. Don't worry, even if your father and I are together, his love for you will only increase, not decrease."
Chen Hanshi didn't want to be in vain, so he stood up and said, "Thank you Aunt Yang for the gift. I feel a little unwell today, so I'll go back first. You and Dad can eat slowly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Hanshi pushed open the door and walked out regardless of the two people's dissuasion.
"Xiao Xin, I'm sorry, I'll go see him first." When Shen Wangjing saw Shen Hanshi running away, he quickly stood up, said something to Yang Xin in a hurry and chased after him. He thought Shen Hanshi would be angry, but he didn't expect Shen Hanshi to react so violently.
As soon as Shen Hanshi entered the elevator, Shen Wangjing chased after him.
Shen Wangjing anxiously pressed the elevator door with his hand and apologized in a low voice: "Baby, it's Daddy's fault. Daddy shouldn't have kept it from you. Don't be angry, okay?"
Shen Hanshi looked at Shen Wangjing indifferently, the corners of his eyes slowly dyed red, and the sourness in his heart could not help but rise up. He was angry and upset, "Dad, why did you look for other people behind my back? When we were young, didn't you say that you would be fine with me? Why do you want to abandon me now that I'm so old? Don't you want me anymore?"
Shen Wangjing felt like needles pricking him when he heard these words. He walked over and hugged Shen Hanshi, lowering his head and couldn't help but kissing Shen Hanshi's hair.
"Baby, how could Daddy abandon you? You know Daddy loves you the most. No one can take your place, not even Daddy's girlfriend."
"You are lying. I don't want you to have a girlfriend. Why do you want to have a girlfriend? Isn't it good for there to be only the two of us in this family?" Chen Hanshi said stubbornly.
“Baby, calm down. Daddy really didn’t lie to you. Even if I get married, we are still a family. Aunt Yang will treat you well and she will take care of you.” When Shen Wangjing noticed that Shen Han wanted to break free, he hugged him even harder.
Whenever Chen Hanshi heard Shen Wangjing say the word "marriage", it felt like someone was kneading his heart. He let Shen Wangjing hold him tightly, his eyes looking at his disheveled reflection on the smooth floor, "Dad, can't you really break up with her? Isn't it good for the two of us to be together? You clearly know that I like you, that kind of like."
When Shen Wangjing realized that Shen Han had broken the window paper between them, he suppressed the turbulent emotions in his chest and said cruelly, "Baby, this is wrong. I am your father."
"Okay, you go and accompany Aunt Yang first. I want to be alone." Shen Hanshi's heart died. He didn't have any energy to listen to anything Shen Wangjing said.
Shen Wangjing didn't want to let go of Shen Hanshi, but he had no other choice.
“Go ahead, let me be alone for a while.” Shen Hanshi broke away from Shen Wangjing and said weakly.
Shen Wangjing finally let him go, "Then be careful and stay home. I'll ask someone to pick you up. Don't run around. I'll be back soon."
"Don't ask anyone to pick me up, I'll go back by myself." Chen Hanshi didn't want people around him to see him in such a mess.
“Then promise me that you will go home early.” Shen Wangjing knew that Shen Han had already made up his mind and could only compromise.
Shen Hanshi watched Shen Wangjing walk out of the elevator, his whole body releasing all the strength. He leaned against the elevator, afraid that Shen Wangjing would get suspicious, and pressed the button to go down one floor at random.
