As for Chen Chen, who was aware of the situation, he was convicted of harboring a criminal and sentenced to three years in prison.
When Shen heard the news, he was deeply saddened.
Chen Chen followed Qi Xingxin, only to end up with nothing, and all his efforts resulted in this outcome.
Shen Shi couldn't understand why Chen Chen would help Qi Xingxin cover up a serious crime when he knew Qi Xingxin had committed it.
Success brings no benefit and leaves you living in constant fear, while failure leads to imprisonment. It's clearly a losing proposition.
Even though they are related by blood, they haven't spent much time together in a foreign country. How can family ties be so powerful?
Just like Shen Shi couldn't understand why Chen Chen had shielded him from the wine bottle.
Shen Shi almost perfectly inherited Lin Han's indifference, but luckily he was born into the Shen family and met Lu Yuning.
With the arrival of the New Year, everything has undergone tremendous changes.
The biggest change was in Shen Yuanyang. After his experience at Lai'er Mountain, he became a man who could protect his lover from the wind and rain, and then naturally proposed to Jiang Beiwan.
Jiang Beiwan, who was now in charge of the Jiang family, nodded excitedly as he looked at Shen Yuanyang, who had grown up.
"I originally thought that this day would never come for us, but thankfully you've grown up and haven't let me down. Jiang Yuanyang, I love you!"
Jiang Beiwan couldn't help but cry with emotion, and Shen Yuanyang's eyes also welled up with tears. He hugged her and solemnly promised, "Beiwan, thank you for always believing in me and supporting me silently behind the scenes. Believe in me again! Shen Yuanyang will make you happy for the rest of your life!"
The couple's sincere affection moved everyone present.
Among them was Lu Yuning. While wiping away her tears, Shen Shi listened to her sob as she said, "Waaah~ Such a touching love story."
Looking at the little girl with red eyes, Shen Shi helplessly touched her brow and said, "Are you so touched that you made our Ningning cry?"
Lu Yuning heard the teasing in Shen Shi's tone, punched his chest with her small fist, and said in a soft, coquettish voice, "You're so annoying."
Chen was very happy to be hit, so he grabbed her little hand, smiled, and kissed it repeatedly.
The following summer, the Lai'er Mountain project gradually took shape, and the place became a popular tourist attraction nationwide, with an astonishing daily flow of visitors.
The initial investment was quickly recouped, and the projected profits were even more astonishing.
The resort project he invested in also started operating thanks to Qin Bochuan's tireless efforts.
Since the resort opened, it has not attracted many visitors because tourists have been drawn away by Mount Leigh.
Although the profits aren't great, over the years, you should be able to break even.
Therefore, Shen Shi's investment was not a loss.
Qin Bochuan didn't lose out either, even though the project, which involved a large investment, didn't bring him much return.
But this defeat changed his previously unruly personality and also taught him some real skills.
For example, how to negotiate with material suppliers to reduce costs when short of money, and how to act subservient to investors.
These were all areas he had never been involved in before. Once he figured out the ins and outs, he would be capable enough to manage a small company like the Qin family.
Shen Shi had no worries about Qin Bochuan's growth. The two were not even in the same league. For the Qin family to compete with Shen Shi was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
The following summer, Shen Shi and Lu Yuning held their wedding in Hawaii.
The style was a beachfront open-air setting that Lu Yuning liked. When the two exchanged rings and said "I do," Shen Shi felt that everything was perfect.
Having you love me is the greatest fortune of my life.
Three years later, the old man passed away. This self-made man who built his business empire from scratch lived to the age of eighty-three.
All the prominent figures in City A came to pay their respects.
With the passing of the old man, Shen Shi became the true ruler. Under his leadership, the Shen family's development gradually diversified, and its business empire expanded more and more.
By the time Shen Shi turned thirty, the market value of the Shen family business far exceeded that of the old man Shen when he was alive.
After the old man passed away, he had no choice but to rely on his son's father. After making a few troubles, he eventually realized the situation and calmed down.
Lin Han got divorced again, but for the successful director Lin, it was a trivial matter.
Lin Han did not achieve her dream of becoming a world-renowned Best Actress, but she won a very prestigious award by making a documentary.
This delighted her, who had a lifelong passion for film, and she immediately transitioned into directing.
With her passion and tireless efforts, Lin Han's feature film was shortlisted for an international film festival.
In recent years, the relationship between the mother and son has improved considerably. When Lin Han attended the film festival, she even called Shen Shi.
His mother's vigorous vitality filled him with admiration. "I wish Director Lin all the best and hope you succeed in your endeavors," Shen Shi said to Lin Han over the phone.
"Haha." Looking back on her life, having given birth to such a good son was one of the few good things she had done.
Regardless of what others say about her, Lin Han said with a carefree tone, "So what if I didn't win it? I'll film it for another twenty years!"
Shen Shi smiled after hearing this; this was indeed Lin Han's personality.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Shi inexplicably thought of Chen Chen. His three-year sentence had long passed, but he had disappeared without a trace.
I also had someone check, but the results were all over the place. Some said he went to Europe, while others said he was in Singapore.
Some even said he had been imprisoned again, but this was later confirmed to be a rumor.
The world is so big, finding someone is like finding a needle in a haystack. Our friendship was just a sham anyway, so when things got heated, I just gave up on looking for them.
