Having her own mobile phone has really made things much more convenient for Lin Wanxing.
He often reads current events on his phone; recently, the Fang and Chen families are going to hold an engagement banquet.
Lin Wanxing was scrolling through her phone when she saw gossip accounts starting to analyze the couple's relationship.
The young master of the Fang family and the daughter of the Chen family are destined to be together; they have known each other since childhood and are childhood sweethearts.
The media has recently been focusing on these two people, frequently digging up old stories to praise Chen Xueping.
These media outlets report on these kinds of things to grab attention; the affairs of various prominent families always pique the public's curiosity.
In media reports, Chen Xueping is a beloved little princess. She is beautiful, gentle, and introverted, while the young master of the Fang family is a dissolute playboy who later reforms for the sake of the little princess.
The playboy reforms for love and becomes the princess's personal knight.
The media always comes up with such boring and unrealistic headlines, such as "Repenting for Love."
The two even staged a love story that resembled a novel, making countless unsuspecting people envious of their divinely redeemed love.
Lin Wanxing scrolled through various edited videos released by gossip media outlets.
What kind of princess is Chen Xueping? The words "gentle and reserved" don't apply to her at all.
She bullies her classmates at school and her mentally challenged younger brother at home. It's ridiculous that such a vicious person is regarded as an innocent little princess.
Money really can make the devil turn the millstone; these media outlets that have taken money are truly disgusting.
Lin Wanxing took a deep breath, biting his lip, unable to calm his emotions for a long time.
Tears welled up in her eyes. Chen Xueping was the apple of her eye, but what about herself? What was she?
The thought that he would always be a fool who couldn't be brought to the table was a lifelong disgrace for Chen Shuhua, a stain on his life that he was unwilling to face.
He is the rightful young master.
The Lin family was the culmination of her mother and grandfather's life's work, yet in the end, it benefited someone else.
Lin Wanxing wiped away his tears, put away his phone, and turned to walk downstairs.
Shen Huai'an was watching his dog cruelly tear apart a pheasant on the golf course. This private golf course used to be a place Shen Huai'an visited every day, but he rarely came here after his leg was injured.
The dog he kept was too fierce. The beast had a terrible temper. Apart from wagging its tail at Shen Huai'an, no one else could get close to it.
After it bit someone last time, Shen Huai'an locked it in a cage in the stadium.
It was only afraid of Shen Huai'an, and it always restrained its temper when facing its master.
Shen Huai'an sat in the rest area of the stadium, watching his dog frantically chase its prey. He placed his cane beside the chair, feeling extremely relaxed at that moment.
"Hello, Mr. Shen."
Shen Huai'an looked at the person who had come and smiled and nodded at him.
Fang Shiming came to see Shen Huai'an this time because of the project in the new city development zone. The Fang family plans to build a commercial center in the new city, and it is necessary to consult Shen Huai'an for this matter.
Shen Huai'an knew that Fang Shiming must have heard some news to come here, otherwise he wouldn't have come to him for no reason.
Shen Huai'an gestured for Fang Shiming to sit down, and asked him very politely, "Mr. Fang, is there something you need from me?"
Fang Shiming disliked beating around the bush and wasting time, so he went straight to the point: "Mr. Shen, the reason I'm here today is to discuss a collaboration with you, concerning the new urban area."
“Mr. Fang, you know my current situation. I have no say in the group. This project in the new urban area will probably fall into my elder brother's hands soon. I am focusing on recuperation now, and I don’t have time to do anything else.”
Shen Huai'an shifted the blame to Shen Taimin, but what he really meant was that he wanted to win over the Fang family.
If they turn to Shen Taimin, it means that the Fang family intends to stand with Shen Taimin.
Shen Huai'an knew that Chen Shuhua was very close to his elder brother, and the Chen family was about to form a marriage alliance with the Fang family, so they were very likely to be on the same side.
That's why Shen Huai'an brought this up; he wanted to test the Fang family's opinion.
Upon hearing this, Fang Shiming immediately understood everything. Now that the new urban area project was in Shen Huai'an's hands, what was the point of seeking out Shen Taimin?
Everyone here is a seasoned shrew in the business world, and they can all understand the unspoken message. Fang Shiming also knew that Shen Huai'an was testing the Fang family's stance.
Judging from the current situation, Shen Huai'an is indeed at a disadvantage.
The third and first branches of the Shen family are united, while the second branch only has Shen Huai'an and a few other unknown members. It's obvious to outsiders who will win in this internal family struggle.
However, the more obvious something is, the more complicated it often is; what you see in front of you may not be the truth.
The Fang family only wants to remain neutral; they don't want to get involved in this matter.
Fang Shiming said, "Mr. Shen, you are joking. Everyone knows your abilities. Now that the project is in your hands, it's just a matter of saying who you want to cooperate with. We just want to create a win-win situation."
“If the project were to end up in your brother’s hands in the future, we would go to him. But for now, the project is in your hands.”
They're all old foxes; they're being very cautious in their words, trying not to offend either side and avoiding getting involved with either.
Shen Huai'an smiled, picked up a pack of cigarettes from the table, and handed it to Fang Shiming.
Fang Shiming waved his hand and said he didn't smoke.
Seeing his expression of refusal, Shen Huai'an couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
He lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth. "Let's talk about the cooperation later when everything has settled down."
