Chapter 137 I'm Not the Only One



He said, "This meal is definitely not going to be very pleasant. I think if you go, Can Can will be happier."

Just as Wen Shuqiao was about to speak, Shen Jiazhou added, "Don't feel pressured. You can refuse. I'll find someone else to go with you later."

Wen Shuqiao asked curiously, "Who are you planning to call?"

“If you’re not going, then let Gu Xingyuan go,” Shen Jiazhou said. “He’s quite familiar with the Shen family’s affairs.”

When he starts cursing, Gu Xingyuan can still add a sarcastic remark from behind.

Wen Shuqiao said, "If I go, wouldn't it be bad if I overheard something I shouldn't have?"

“There’s nothing you can’t hear now.” Shen Jiazhou chuckled, but his tone was devoid of emotion. “Even if you don’t go this time, they’ll still come after you. The old man is planning to build an amusement park for Can Can, and he’s also going to revise the distribution of his estate.”

Can Can is a hot commodity right now. If you get Can Can, all the assets under his name will be transferred away in less than a year.

Wen Shuqiao exclaimed, "Wow, there's so much going on in wealthy families."

She asked, "Before Cancan turns eighteen, as his uncle, you should have been able to take care of things for him, right?"

It's no use them sticking to it.

Shen Jiazhou took a deep breath and said, "Cancan's nominal uncle is actually more than just me."

The microwave oven stopped working with a "ding," which made Wen Shuqiao look at Shen Jiazhou in surprise.

Not just Shen Jiazhou?

But in the novel, there's only Shen Jiazhou, right?

This time, Shen Jiazhou simply told the whole story: "After their divorce, Shen Fang got married not long after. His wife has a son who is only one month younger than me. He is also Shen Fang's son, named Xu Qingzhi."

Wen Shuqiao blinked. Xu Qingzhi?

Shen Jiazhou noticed Wen Shuqiao's confusion and explained, "It's an illegitimate child. Shen Fang was afraid that my mother would find out, so he didn't let his son outside take his surname."

After getting married, she wanted to change her surname back to Shen, but her grandfather did not agree. In fact, he still wanted to hide the scandal of Shen Fang's extramarital affair and childbirth.

Although everyone knows that Xu Qingzhi is Shen Fang's biological son, as long as he doesn't have the surname Shen, they can still maintain a semblance of civility.

Wen Shuqiao looked at him, but her mind was racing to find out who this person was. She was certain that there was no such person as Xu Qingzhi.

Shen Jiazhou met her gaze and continued, "The phone call that Shen Jiachen answered after his car accident was also made by Shen Fang."

He took a deep breath: "Shen Jiachen has more shares in Shen's than I do, but Xu Qingzhi doesn't. Shen Fang wants Shen Jiachen to give up some of his shares for his son, so he used me as an excuse to trick Shen Jiachen into coming back."

Wen Shuqiao suddenly felt a ringing in her ears; her thoughts were a bit jumbled. She said, "You mean..."

She couldn't continue; for an ordinary person like her, the answer was somewhat nauseating.

So the real reason Shen Jiachen was in a car accident was simply because Shen Fang wanted his shares so that his illegitimate son could get a ticket to the Shen family business.

Shen Jiazhou's tone grew colder as he cruelly and calmly recounted the truth of what happened back then: "He even knew very well that Shen Jiachen would be leaving that day."
