The living room fell silent. Shen Jiazhou picked up his teacup again and took a small sip.
Until Shen Fang asked, his voice trembling slightly, "Is it really... his son?"
Shen Jiazhou lazily raised his eyelids and looked at him: "What, do you think he still has descendants, and regret not letting them die together?"
"Shen Jiazhou!" Shen Fang's eyes reddened considerably: "Could I really harm my own son?!"
Of his three sons, the eldest, Shen Jiachen, was his favorite, because he was the child of Zhou Yue when they fell in love. But fate is unpredictable, and who could see his pain?!
Old Master Shen stood up and walked to Shen Jiazhou: "Quickly, I need to see that child! Jiazhou! Take me there now!"
Shen Jiazhou put the teacup aside and sat on the sofa without moving: "Grandpa, please calm down."
Tears streamed down Old Master Shen's face as he choked out, "How can I stay calm! That's Jia Chen's child!"
Shen Jiachen's passing is a rift in their hearts. He was such an outstanding and sensible child from a young age! He even had an heir!
Shen Jiazhou leaned back on the sofa and asked, "Grandpa, have you considered how the children will manage after you come all this way with such a grand gesture?"
Shen Fang said, "Of course we'll bring them back! Our Shen family has so many resources, raising a child is more than enough!"
Shen Jiazhou ignored Shen Fang and whispered to Grandpa Shen, "Grandpa, if you come here like this, everyone will know he's here. Maybe before you even leave the child's house, other people will come with you."
"Have you ever wondered why Shen Jiachen won't let us know about this child's existence?"
After being told to sit down, Grandpa Shen calmed down a bit. Shen Jiazhou said, "Sit down, Grandpa."
Old Master Shen pursed his lips and sat back down on the sofa.
He turned to the butler standing beside him and said, "Go and get my oxygen machine."
He needs time to process this; the news is just too big for him.
The butler was also shocked by the news. Only after hearing Mr. Shen's instructions did he go to the side and push his oxygen machine over.
After taking in oxygen and feeling a bit better, Old Master Shen continued, "What's the child's name?"
Shen Jiazhou said, "Cancan just turned four."
"Cancan? What a good name. You can tell from the name that he's a well-behaved child," Old Master Shen murmured.
Shen Fang opened his mouth, but knowing that Shen Jiazhou didn't like him, he moved his lips slightly and listened quietly for a while.
Grandpa Shen asked impatiently, "Is that girl in the photo your sister-in-law?"
"No," Shen Jiazhou said. "My sister-in-law passed away due to illness, and Cancan is now living with her aunt."
Shen Jiazhou answered truthfully that there was nothing to hide about this matter. Even if he didn't say anything, Old Master Shen would definitely have someone investigate once he found out that it was his great-grandson.
Grandpa Shen sighed, "He's a good kid too."
They also had a wonderful great-grandson.
Old Master Shen sighed and turned to look at his son.
Shen Fang is not as agitated as before. Now that he has calmed down, it's hard to tell what he's thinking.
Old Master Shen knew his son's temperament very well. He coughed lightly, not looking at Shen Fang, but at Shen Jiazhou: "Jiazhou, when can I see him? Have you told him that Great-Grandpa also likes him? No, no, what does he like?"
Before Shen Jiazhou could speak, Old Master Shen gestured for him to stop. He turned his head and said, "Go and find a lawyer for me. I need to reorganize the assets under my name!"
He originally intended to leave Shen Jiachen's part to Shen Jiazhou after his death, since the two brothers were so close they were practically one. But now that Cancan is here, things are different.
The housekeeper went to make a phone call.
Grandpa Shen continued, "I bought another piece of land recently. I originally planned to rent it out, but now I've changed my mind. Could you spare some time tomorrow to help me contact a few architects and designers? I want to build an amusement park for Can Can!"
"Dad," Shen Fang couldn't help but speak up, "Weren't you going to rent that piece of land to Qingzhi?"
Grandpa Shen glanced at him and said, "I'll find a good one for Qingzhi later. I'm going to give that piece of land to Cancan."
Shen Fang wanted to say something more, but he was stunned by the look in Old Master Shen's eyes.
Shen Jiazhou scoffed inwardly. Just a moment ago he was incredibly excited, but now he's already scheming for himself.
He hadn't expected Shen Fang to be particularly fond of the child, but this was far too blatant.
Shen Jiazhou said, "Grandpa, don't worry, Cancan won't be going back to the Shen family."
"Not going back to the Shen family?" Old Master Shen frowned. "If he doesn't go back to the Shen family, does that mean he's going to live with his aunt?"
“Yes,” Shen Jiazhou said. “Cancan is now registered under the same household as her. According to the above-mentioned relationship, Cancan can also be considered her son.”
"Of course, we, the Shen family, should raise our own children!" Shen Fang said. "Can Can is Jia Chen's son, and as his father and grandfather, I naturally have the obligation and the right to bring him back to the Shen family!"
He thought for a moment and then said, "Your aunt is free right now, so she can help take care of Can Can. He's in kindergarten now, right? Whether it's picking him up from school or his nutrition..."
"Is your next sentence going to ask me to pass on Shen Jiachen's inheritance to you? Or to your stupid son?" Shen Jiazhou interrupted Shen Fang: "I said, Cancan will not return to the Shen family. If you can't hear me, you can get out."
Shen Fang clenched his fists tightly. What kind of son would dare to speak to his father like that?!
