Chapter 426 Patience Exhausted
Shen Jiheng's willingness to hand over the assets he controls indicates that he intends to break away from the Shen family.
Han Xi knew that all of that was his hard work, and making this decision was not easy.
If Bo Siye is willing to let go, past grievances can be wiped clean.
However, he shook his head and said unwillingly, "That's not enough. I want you to leave with nothing."
This is completely putting Shen Jiheng in a difficult position. Just because he occupies this position doesn't mean he should be given everything.
Shen Jiheng's patience was almost exhausted, and his gaze turned cold.
Bo Siye said, "Do you know how I've spent the last twenty years? Ask the person lying there how many times I've escaped death to stay alive."
The old man didn't dare to face his questioning at all, and lowered his head in remorse, saying, "It's my fault, it has nothing to do with Ji Heng."
"How can it be unrelated? Everything you've done is to protect your grandson, dragging other people's children into misery. Yes! I admit the Shen family is unforgivable, they are evil, but why are you dragging me into it!"
Bo Siye had experienced the ruthlessness of the Shen family firsthand, and had almost died in their assassination attempts several times, which is why he had never given up and was determined to take revenge.
But he shouldn't have to bear these things in the first place. Why should his life be stolen?
A flash of pain crossed Shen Jiheng's eyes as he said, "It's no use making a fuss now. I've done everything I could."
"You haven't experienced my pain, so of course you can talk so easily. If you don't comply with my demands, I will never let it go." Bo Siyue's attitude was clearly provocative.
Han Xi stepped forward, her brows furrowed slightly: "If, as you say, Ji Heng leaves with nothing, then you should also give up everything the Bo family owns. That would be fair."
After all, it wasn't Shen Jiheng who caused this mess; both of them are victims. Why should Shen Jiheng bear the brunt of it all alone?
Bo Siye looked at her with disappointment, "Han Xi, you always side with him and never consider me. The Bo family got its current status through my own hard work. What does he have?"
"Then go and find out that ten years ago, Shen Qingzhou almost bankrupted the Shen Group, leaving it heavily indebted. It was Ji Heng who saved it. This has nothing to do with the Shen family."
Han Xi was biased towards Shen Jiheng, but he also viewed the matter from a fair perspective.
She hadn't expected Shen Jiheng to take the initiative to compromise this time.
She understood that Shen Jiheng was doing this to repay Bo Siye for the suffering he had endured for her sake, a fact that made Han Xi feel sorry for him.
"I don't want anything from the Bo family." Shen Jiheng conceded again, surprising everyone.
If Bo Siye accepts Shen Jiheng's proposal, he will be able to control half of Shen's businesses, and with the addition of the Bo family's assets, he will become the richest man in Chongqing.
The summit he had always dreamed of reaching was now right before his eyes.
However, he couldn't be happy at all. He shook his head, determined not to let Shen Jiheng relax like that.
"Not only these, but everything that belongs to me will be mine, including Han Xi. As for you..." Bo Siye said stubbornly, looking at the old man. His eyes no longer held the respect he once had, but were filled with nothing but hatred.
All that was heard was Bo Siye saying, "I want you to atone for your sins with your death before me."
After he finished speaking, the ward fell into a deathly silence.
Han Xi couldn't stand it anymore and was about to go over to argue when Shen Jiheng's fist was already one step ahead, hitting Bo Siye directly in the face.
“You’ve missed all your opportunities. People shouldn’t be so pretentious. If that’s the case, then take what you want with your own abilities. Whether it’s the Shen family’s assets or Han Xi, you can’t touch them.”
Originally, Shen Jiheng genuinely wanted to return what belonged to him and let go of past hatred.
However, Bo Siyue's attitude completely angered him, so he had no choice but to go back to the way he came.
The old man hurriedly said, "Don't fight anymore. If my death can resolve this hatred, I'm willing to accept it."
Shen Jiheng looked at him seriously and said, "From now on, you are not to interfere in anything, nor can you stop it. What you need to do is take good care of your health and live on."
Although he harbored resentment, Shen Jiheng understood and was grateful.
Bo Siye gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Very well, now that you grandfather and grandson have recognized each other, I've become a laughing stock. I will absolutely not let this go. I will take back everything that belongs to me."
There were no more words to persuade him, so Han Xi said no more.
Seeing Bo Siye leave angrily, Han Xi knew that trouble was about to break out again.
However, since his future targets will all be Shen Jiheng, his life will inevitably undergo earth-shattering changes.
Seeing the old man in pain, Han Xi took a deep breath and walked over.
“Grandpa Bo, things have come to this, so don’t think too much about it. Just do as Ji Heng said and focus on getting better. I’ll come see you again.”
The old man looked at her with red eyes and choked up, saying, "Han Xi, thank you for everything you've done, whether it's for Ji Heng or the child, I'm very grateful."
Han Xi forced a smile, knowing how much her elders valued the child.
It was precisely because of this that the old lady couldn't accept that her hard-won great-grandson had suddenly become someone else's.
"I'll bring them to see you once you're feeling better. You're safe here now, so just rest and don't do anything foolish, or Ji Heng will worry."
Although Shen Jiheng didn't say anything, Han Xi knew that he cared.
The old man looked at Shen Jiheng, but Shen Jiheng avoided his gaze and quickly walked out.
It's not so easy to accept; both sides need time to process it.
Han Xi gently patted his hand and said tenderly, "Don't worry, I'll stay by his side and come see you again tomorrow."
The old man's eyes were full of gratitude, and he nodded in agreement.
Han Xi chased after him, and Shen Jiheng was waiting for her at the door.
Han Xi stepped forward, took his hand, and asked, "Where are we going next?"
Shen Jiheng smiled and said, "We'll split up. I'll take you to the hospital, and you can wait for Grandma to wake up over there. I'll go back to the company to make some preparations."
He still cared about the old lady's condition, but in the current situation, he felt somewhat uncomfortable staying with the Shen family.
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions. I'll let you know as soon as Grandma wakes up."
Shen Jiheng rubbed her head and said, "You've worked hard."
Han Xi shook her head. She knew that the person who was having the hardest time right now was Shen Jiheng. He would soon have to face the storm ahead, and she was worried that he would get hurt in this struggle.
Han Xi hugged him and said, "Ji Heng, if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask me. Don't forget that I still have Han Shu Group, which is also your support."
Shen Jiheng's pupils dilated, flashing bright light, and he gently pulled the person into his arms.
Even if he really loses everything, at least Han Xi is still by his side.
"It's so good to have you."
Han Xi snuggled against him. She knew Shen Jiheng was suffering inside, and this was the only way she could comfort him.
The car stopped in front of Hengtian Hospital, and Han Xi looked at him: "Are you really not going to get out and take a look?"
Having arrived here, Han Xi could see the worry in his eyes; he must be very concerned about the old lady's condition.
Shen Jiheng calmly shook his head: "It is said that Shen Mu and the others are also here. My appearance at this time may not be a good thing."
