Chapter 175 A Game of Chess



Lin Wanxing casually picked a small flower on the path to the ancestral hall and gave it to Shen Huai'an.

"For me!"

Lin Wanxing nodded emphatically.

Shen Huai'an was somewhat confused: "Why are you giving it to me?"

"Because you did a good job today, I'm giving you a little flower as a reward!" Lin Wanxing smiled sweetly, his eyes always so innocent, like the best reward a child could give him.

"You'll get a little flower if I behave well? How did I behave well?" Shen Huai'an took the little flower from his hand and asked him softly.

He needs to listen carefully to which of his behaviors are considered good behavior by the stars.

Lin Wanxing said seriously, "I thought you would forgive Shen Taimin again this time, and even speak up for him at the last moment, but you didn't. You did a good job in that respect."

"Second brother, one cannot be too kind. Being too kind is not good. You have no idea how worried I was for you just now. I was afraid you would forgive Shen Taimin."

"Thank goodness you didn't, I'm relieved. Now I can rest assured that Shin Tae-min will never harm you again."

So that's what he was worried about. Now that things have come to this, how could Shen Huai'an possibly still speak up for Shen Taimin?

Lin Wanxing skipped and hopped happily, "Hurry up and go eat, I want steak and lava cake."

Shen Huai'an followed Xingxing at a leisurely pace, leaning on his cane.

When Shim Tae-min takes out the ledger, then everything he has done today will have succeeded. That ledger is everyone's Achilles' heel; if Shim Tae-min takes out the ledger, he will be courting death.

Over the years, Shen Huai'an had figured out these people's minds. He could subconsciously know what they wanted to do with their every move and word.

From the moment Xie Xiaodong appeared at the old mansion's birthday banquet to the old woman sending Xie Xiaodong to the group, everything was aimed at her.

The old woman wanted to use Xie Xiaodong to monitor her, and even, if necessary, have Xie Xiaodong stab her in the back.

Xie Xiaodong lived up to expectations, constantly causing trouble for him. In the end, he even took the risk of stealing documents and colluding with Shen Taimin to cause him a car accident.

However, the old woman miscalculated; while they were placing the chess pieces, they were unaware that their game had only just begun.

Shen Taimin's weakness is his arrogance. He has been holding back for so many years after obtaining the account book, thinking that if he can bring me down today, he can become the heir, then take out the account book, and then naturally control the Shen family.

He oversimplified things. The old man originally intended to hand over the account book to Shen Huai'an, but Shen Huai'an didn't make it back in time, so he could only hand it over to Shen Taimin.

This thing has its advantages and disadvantages. Anyone who dares to take it out in public will become the target of public criticism. The old man trusts Shen Huai'an and thinks he will not let this thing see the light of day.

But later, when he became seriously ill, he had no choice but to entrust the care to Shim Tae-min.

This also pushed Shim Tae-min's arrogance to its peak, because he had this thing in his hands, so he always acted without any scruples.

His arrogance led to his downfall, but he should also thank another person.

"Wanxing, go back to the car and wait for me. I'm going to talk to Xiaoting. It was a last-minute decision for me to let Xiaoting take over the project today. I haven't told Xiaoting yet. I need to ask her if she's willing to go to the group first, and then I'll arrange a position for her."

Lin Wanxing thought for a moment. His second brother was very thoughtful in everything he did, and Shen Zhiting was also benefiting from his influence. "Second brother, do you want me to come with you?"

"No need, it's not far, and my leg is much better recently." Shen Huai'an knew that Xingxing was worried about him.

Lin Wanxing nodded seriously, "Go ahead, but come back quickly, I'm hungry."

Lin Wanxing was preoccupied with food, and he couldn't wait to go to that restaurant.

Shen Huai'an found Shen Zhiting on the other side. Shen Zhiting already knew about her father's situation. Her great-grandfather was going to drive her father out of the Shen family and remove his name from the family genealogy.

Shen Zhiting wondered if this matter would implicate her.

Being expelled from the family is a big deal; it means her father will never have the chance to return to the Shen family again.

Just as she was feeling troubled, Shen Huai'an arrived.

"Second Uncle, how is it going?" Shen Zhiting asked worriedly.

Shen Huai'an looked at her and said, "Your father's matter has been resolved. Don't worry, your father is your father, and you are you. I can tell the difference."

“You’re a good child, but you haven’t been valued all these years. Your second uncle agreed to take over your father’s Greenland project at the ancestral hall today. I don’t know if Xiaoting wants to go to the group. Don’t worry, I will have someone take you there.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiting's worries immediately dissipated. "Second Uncle, thank you. Of course I'm willing to go to the company."
