Chen He also laughed and said, "Old Madam, you are just an elder of mine. You are not important enough for me to sacrifice my marriage to be filial to you."
This is quite blunt and unpleasant to the ear.
But when Zhong Pingting heard this, she was not angry at all, but laughed instead.
"I feel really comfortable talking to you, kid. You're genuine and honest, and you know when to act and what to do. You know when to advance and when to retreat, and you're also stubborn enough to face challenges head-on."
"Your parents don't have these qualities in you. I think your grandmother taught you these good qualities through her words and deeds."
Chen He couldn't listen any longer and interrupted Zhong Pingting: "Old Madam, please stop flattering me. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
"You..." Zhong Pingting shook her head and laughed.
She once again held Shen He's hand.
Chen He lowered his eyes and looked at her silently.
Zhong Pingting's eyes gradually became solemn and heavy. She held Chen He's fingers tightly and whispered, "Your second and third uncles are good sons, good fathers, and good husbands. They both have some wisdom, but they lack the courage that a head of the family should have."
"As for your second aunt, although she is upright and courageous, she is a woman of courage but no strategy. Your third aunt is good in all aspects, she is both smart and courageous, and has determination. But she..."
"With her body, there's no telling how many years she can last."
"As for Sri and Jinyan..." Zhong Pingting looked up at Chen He and gave him a helpless smile, sighing, "You should have noticed that although they are all outstanding, none of them is suitable to be in charge of a large family."
Hearing this, Chen He vaguely guessed the purpose of Zhong Pingting keeping her to talk.
"Our Shen family is still lacking a leader."
"I don't have much time left to live." Zhong Pingting's eyes grew serious. She solemnly asked Chen He, "Chen He, are you willing to take over the Shen family, lead your brothers, and continue to lead the Shen family?"
Shen He's breathing became heavier.
"Old Madam, you think too highly of me. I'm only a little older than Jinyan and the others, just a child."
"I think my second uncle and third uncle are more suitable to be the head of the family than me."
Zhong Pingting smiled bitterly and pulled Chen He to sit on the small stool next to them.
He said with a frown, "More than two months ago, at my birthday party, seven or eight pharmaceutical company CEOs came. They all extended olive branches to Jinyan, but Jinyan rejected them all. Do you know what this means?"
Of course Shen He knew.
She said: "This means that Jinyan has become a recognized rising star in the medical field. He is dazzling enough and has been noticed by the medical community."
Nodding, Zhong Pingting asked again: "What do you think about this?"
Chen He pursed his lips and said nothing.
"Just tell me."
Shen He said truthfully: "This is not a good thing."
"The more unattainable something is, the easier it is to be destroyed." Chen He's eyes were full of sorrow when he said this.
In the previous life, Mu Tingyun was able to use frame-up methods to send Shen Jinyan to prison. There may not be other forces behind this that fanned the flames.
For the genius that cannot be obtained, it is ruined.
No one should expect to benefit.
Human hearts are sometimes so sinister.
