Chapter 398 The Person Hiding Behind It
was the evening of the weekend, and it was time for the Shen family to have a meal together again.
But compared with the past, Shen Yumo was missing from the Shen family’s dining table.
"Aunt, where is Aunt Yumo doing?" Chaoxia pouted and asked Li Yufei in disappointment.
Li Yufei felt a little sad when she heard this question, but on the surface, she still smiled and rubbed Zhaoxia's chubby face with her hands, and asked with pity: "What's the matter? Just go find my aunt."
"Where's your aunt Yumo? She's out for something recently!"
"But I'm not looking for my aunt, I'm missing Aunt Yumo!" Chao Yun, who was standing not far away and playing with a small ball, also said seriously.
This situation made Li Yufei's heart twitch, and a tear almost rolled down.
This stinky guy Cheng Xuyuan has really done a lot of harm to people!
The other members of the Shen family were speechless at this time. They looked at each other, not knowing how to explain to the children. The only sound in the house was the TV.
Shen Yunliang sat in the living room a little lonely. He felt that his daughter Shen Yumo's life was too hard and tiring, with ups and downs. It had only been a short time since she returned home to reunite with her family, and now she was thousands of miles away from home again! Thinking of this, he felt more and more distressed.
"News Broadcast" has now become a must-watch program for Shen Yunliang every day, or it can be said that it has become a must-watch program for most families with televisions.
"...Ms. Fang of Shaw Brothers Films donated a teaching building to Yenching University on behalf of the company's founder... and hoped that Yenching University would..."
"…at the donation ceremony, Ms. Fang mentioned…she was very grateful to Mr. Cheng Xuyuan for allowing the company to…give in return for the gift of a papaya…"
…
Looking at the blurry figure of Cheng Xuyuan on the phone screen, Shen Yulin sighed and said, "Cheng Xuyuan is really willing to give up."
"This is 150,000 Hong Kong dollars!"
Shen Yushu, who was sitting next to his brother, also sighed with emotion: "For Cheng Xuyuan, he has no shortage of money!"
"As far as I know, Ms. Fang did not intend to donate to build a teaching building for Yenching University when she came here this time."
"It's just that Cheng Xuyuan authorized the adaptation for one yuan, which made Ms. Fang and her company make this decision."
"This time, he has made an outstanding contribution to Yenching University."
Shen Yulin sighed and said nothing.
Shen Yushu said to Shen Yunliang who was sitting next to him, "Dad, I heard that many people have proposed to let Cheng Xuyuan join the Literary Association and gradually train him. Is this rumor true?"
Shen Yunliang said calmly, "That's true."
"But Old Zhang invited Cheng Xuyuan, and although he agreed to join, he was unwilling to care about other matters of the Literary Association."
"So, so far, this is still wishful thinking."
After hearing his father's comments, Shen Yushu was speechless.
He works diligently and willingly, and really wants to take on more important responsibilities, but he has no chance. However, he is extremely reluctant.
Could it be that this was the difference between me and Cheng Xuyuan? The news changed to something else, and the dullness at home began to break.
Just as the family was getting ready to eat, the phone suddenly rang.
Shen Yulin was closest to the phone. After answering the call, he heard the voice on the other end of the line and exclaimed, "Yumo, where... where are you now?"
After hearing Shen Yulin's words, the Shen family members, who were originally busy with their own things, also came to the phone.
Li Xueling, in particular, took a few quick steps to her son's side and signaled Shen Yulin to give her the phone quickly.
Shen Yulin naturally did not dare to disobey his mother's request, and quickly handed the microphone to Li Xueling.
"Yu Mo, are you doing well in the East China Sea? When can you come back?" Li Xueling's voice was filled with tears.
"Mom, I'm fine, don't worry." Shen Yumo said, "I'm a little busy with work at Shanghai Literature and Art right now, but everyone is very nice to me, and I'm living a fulfilling life."
"You and my dad, please take care of yourselves too!"
Li Xueling nodded excitedly and said, "Your father and I are getting along very well. We are planning to visit you in a few days!"
"No need, Mom, I'm fine." Shen Yumo said, "Where's my dad? Mom, can you let my dad answer the phone?"
In fact, Shen Yunliang had already reached the phone a long time ago, but unlike Li Xueling, he did not snatch the phone from Shen Yulin's hand without saying a word.
When he heard his daughter calling him at this moment, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
He took the phone from his wife who was a little reluctant to leave and said, "Yumo, Dad is fine. You just went there, are you used to the food?"
"It's good. I like the food here."
“Especially the fish here, it’s very delicious.”
After Shen Yumo finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, didn't you say that there would be no room for me in this room allocation? Why did you allocate me a small two-bedroom apartment?"
Shen Yunliang was stunned when he heard this question.
He is also concerned about his daughter's housing.
Knowing that a new residential building had been built near Shen Yumo's new unit, he wondered if he could provide a place for his daughter to live there.
However, the response was no.
He knew the reason very well for this response. Apart from the fact that his daughter's qualifications were indeed a bit shallow, there was a more important reason, which was that he and the other girl were just nodding acquaintances.
With no other options left, he could only give up.
"You mean, you got a separate house?" Shen Yunliang asked with some disbelief.
"Yes, I just received a notice this afternoon, Dad, don't you know about it?" Shen Yumo asked puzzledly.
Shen Yunliang was stunned for a moment and thought, that friend clearly said it couldn't be done, so why is he doing it now?
It seems that there is an opportunity.
This is really great! "Dad really doesn't know, but this is a good thing." Shen Yunliang said: "You have a place to live, which is much better than living in a dormitory. Your mother and I don't have to worry about you getting along with your roommates."
"Dad, thank you! You should take care of yourself too, and don't worry about me!"
Listening to his daughter's words, a hint of tenderness flashed across Shen Yunliang's eyes.
He said in a deep voice: "Yu Mo, why are you still saying thank you to your father? As long as you can live well over there, Dad will be relieved!"
"Don't worry, Dad will try to go on a business trip to the East China Sea in the near future."
Hearing that Shen Yunliang was coming, Shen Yumo seemed to be embarrassed and said: "Dad, it's such a long distance, and you are not young anymore, don't run away."
"I'll go back to see you during the Chinese New Year."
Shen Yunliang's nose was sore and he almost burst into tears. His precious daughter was away alone and was still worried about his health, but he said ruthlessly: "Don't worry about this. I will go when I have the chance."
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, I'm hanging up!"
Shen Yumo called and the phone bill was not cheap. Shen Yunliang didn't want his daughter to spend too much on long-distance calls; secondly, he was also planning to call an old friend to ask about the situation.
"It's nothing, but you and my mom must take care of yourselves." When Shen Yumo said this at the end, he actually felt like crying.
"Well, remember, Yu Mo, you should eat more too." Shen Yunliang said, "Put aside the unhappy things."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yunliang looked at Li Xueling who was sitting beside him wiping her tears and said, "It's a good thing that Yumo called. She got a room and doesn't have to share a dormitory with others."
These words really made Li Xueling show a hint of relief.
Hu Chunli said: "Yu Mo was able to get a place to live so quickly, all thanks to you, Dad."
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for young people to get a house."
Although Shen Yunliang had some opinions about his daughter-in-law Hu Chunli, he felt that what his eldest daughter-in-law said made some sense.
He said in a deep voice: "I'll call the boss and thank him."
"It would be fine if I didn't know about this, but now that I know about it, I have to thank them."
As he spoke, he picked up the phone and asked for a number.
It took three or four minutes before the call was connected.
The boss on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "Old Shen, you really impressed me!"
Hearing this, Shen Yunliang was stunned.
He felt that there was something else behind Mr. Dong's words, but he didn't know what he was talking about.
"Boss, given our friendship, you shouldn't flatter me. Brother, let me tell you, I will always remember your help to Yu Mo."
"I really appreciate your kindness. Next time we meet, I will have a couple of drinks with you and thank you in person."
Shen Yunliang's voice was full of infectiousness.
But the boss was a little confused and said, "Old Shen, what great favor are you talking about? I didn't do anything to help the child."
"What do you mean by that?"
After hearing what the boss said, Shen Yunliang was also surprised: "Boss, didn't you help Yu Mo with the house division?"
"Why, do you still want to do good deeds without leaving a name?"
Hearing this, the old boss was stunned for a moment, then said: "Old Shen, didn't you ask Old Zhang to confirm the allocation of housing for Yu Mo?"
Hearing what the boss said, Shen Yunliang was stunned.
He hurriedly asked, "Are you saying that this matter was confirmed by Lao Zhang from above?"
The old boss calmed down at this time and asked back, "You don't even know this, do you?"
"You really don't know? There's no need to hide anything between us."
Facing his old friend who was doubting him, Shen Yunliang said solemnly, "I really don't know."
"But apart from you, who else could have asked Old Zhang to come from such a long distance in Beijing to ask for a favor?" Old Dong said, "I thought you had persevered and found Old Zhang!"
As Shen Yunliang listened to Old Dong's words, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
He knows a lot of people who can push this matter forward.
However, there is probably only one person who can do this to Shen Yumo! Thinking of this, Shen Yunliang's heart was churning like a storm.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you, Boss. I kind of understand what's going on now!"
"From now on, Yu Mo will still need your care. She is still young and away from home. If she makes any mistakes in the future, please bear with her!"
The old boss smiled and said, "This is as it should be. She is your daughter and also my niece."
"Don't worry, if anything happens, I will inform you as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yunliang ignored his family's inquiring looks and made another call.
A few minutes later, a trace of emotion flashed in Shen Yunliang's eyes. After thanking him, he put down the phone and said to Li Xueling who looked puzzled: "Yu Mo's house was entrusted by Cheng Xuyuan."
When Li Xueling heard this, a strange look flashed across her face.
Finally, she said nothing, stood up and went to the kitchen.
Shen Yushu and Shen Yulin looked at each other quickly, but did not speak immediately.
Half a minute later, Shen Yushu asked, "Dad, are you going to tell Yu Mo about this?"
Shen Yunliang hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Let's not let her know about this for the time being."
"Since your sister wants to start a new life, let's follow her instructions. It would be best if she always thinks that I did it."
"Save yourself from any further complications!"
