Shen Qingyue was initially very nervous because she knew her father well.
In the past, whenever she went to Shanghai, it was because something big seemed to be happening in Beijing.
Shen Baichuan was afraid that his siblings would be implicated, so he arranged for them to go to Shanghai. At least if something really happened, they wouldn't be immediately controlled by others.
Of course, they receive the most comprehensive protection and support in all aspects. There won't be any problems just because their location has changed.
Moreover, Shanghai is where the Shen family rose to power. They are the true local tyrants in Shanghai, unmatched by any powerful force!
Therefore, leaving the siblings in Shanghai is the safest option.
As for why the Shen family came to the capital, it was naturally because this was the center of power and the gathering place of all the powerful families.
It's much more convenient to do things in the capital. After developing to a certain level, they also want to have their own place in the capital.
In fact, they had already done it a long time ago.
However, we've encountered some minor troubles, so we must make the most thorough preparations.
Regardless of how others view his two children, Shen Baichuan values them very much.
Outsiders have many misunderstandings about her daughter; they only look at appearances, so he knows his daughter has suffered a lot of injustice.
In the end, he sent Shen Qingyue to Shanghai so that his daughter could be better protected there.
Therefore, whether in the original storyline or in their encounter in this life, Shen Qingyue has never actually suffered any injustice at Yingcai's hands.
In her past life, all the grievances she suffered came from Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen's later miserable life was naturally due to the suppression he suffered at the hands of the Zhao family. But it's also possible that the Shen family was seeking revenge for their daughter.
Under this double blow, it's difficult for Zhao Chen to get back up.
Therefore, in this life, he not only got rid of the Zhao family's entanglement, but also gained the attention of the Shen family, and the situation naturally changed greatly.
However, Shen Baichuan now needs to confirm one thing:
"Yueyue, you can do whatever you want, but Dad needs to figure out whether he's after your money and family background, or whether he truly loves you?"
Hearing her father's words, Shen Qingyue said with great certainty:
“Dad, he had no idea who I was before, let alone what our family does.”
“He just thought I was an ordinary fat girl. He was really good to me. He helped me lose weight, taught me how to study, and genuinely cared about everything about me.”
“That kind of genuine concern can’t be faked; I can feel it. He likes me a lot too…”
At this point, Shen Qingyue couldn't help but blush a little.
This was truly the first time she had ever said this in front of her father.
After all, nobody liked her before. Being able to treat her as an equal is already quite good.
Zhao Chen was the first person who wholeheartedly accepted her, helped her, and cared for her.
Moreover, she really likes him, which is quite rare.
Shen Baichuan then waved his hand:
“I know you care about him, but there are just too many people in this world who are good at pretending.”
"I need to meet this kid in person to make sure he's genuinely good to you and isn't after us or anything else before I say anything else..."
"Also, do you know what this kid's background is, what his family does?"
This time, Shen Qingyue's younger brother jumped out again, raising his hand and saying:
“I really have the right to speak on this because I watched my brother-in-law rise to prominence.”
"At the same time, I also know what my brother-in-law's family does, but they are a very bad family and have hurt him a lot. My brother-in-law is really something else..."
“My sister really hit the jackpot this time. To be honest, I don’t think my sister is good enough for him.”
Shen Qingyue was genuinely annoyed at this point, and yelled at her younger brother, "Shut up!"
Shen Qingyue is usually gentle and considerate in front of Zhao Chen, but when she is with her younger brother, she really can't suppress the fire in her heart.
This guy is a real troublemaker; he's everywhere...
Upon hearing this, Shen Baichuan became interested. He raised his hand and gestured for Shen Qingyue to calm down. He suggested that things could be discussed slowly and there was no need to rush.
Then he had his son have a good talk with him.
So, it didn't take the young man long to tell Zhao Chen all about his background in the Zhao family.
After hearing all this, Shen Baichuan raised an eyebrow without changing his expression and couldn't help but say:
"Judging from the snippets you've shared so far, this kid is indeed quite good."
"He's a ruthless person with great perseverance, ruthless to his enemies, and even more ruthless to himself. Whether or not he has the help of the Shen family, he's destined for great things..."
"I feel like what you know isn't the most comprehensive. There are definitely some things about this kid that you don't know."
"Alright, let's leave it at that for now."
"However, Xiaoyue, I still want to see him in person."
"There's still some time before your school starts, so let him come to Beijing to see us when he has some free time."
"This is the person you chose, and he will also be my future son-in-law."
"Seeing how determined you are to marry him, I'll have to examine his character even more carefully."
Hearing her father's words, Shen Qingyue pouted and said, "Dad, please don't make things difficult for him..."
"My daughter has finally met someone she loves, and who truly loves her too. If I miss out on Zhao Chen, what kind of person can I find..."
At this point, Shen Qingyue's eyes couldn't help but redden.
Upon seeing this, Shen Baichuan couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Oh my, my precious daughter has finally learned to fight for her own happiness."
“I’m glad you have this idea.”
"I thought you would always stay under my wing and be protected by me, just like before."
"Now you dare to stand up and protect the person you like."
"That's good, but your performance makes your father quite jealous."
"You've never protected Dad like this before..."
To be honest, although Shen Baichuan was very open-minded, he still felt like his own cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
It's just that this cabbage of mine is too fat; it's good enough that even a pig is willing to root for it.
In short, he has mixed feelings, but he is also very happy.
My daughter has found someone she likes. This young man seems pretty good, so let's meet him.
If it's worth cultivating, he might as well invest in it in advance.
But then he thought about it and realized that the other party was actually connected with Alice, the daughter of the Qi family, which made him a little wary.
The Qi family has expanded rapidly both domestically and internationally due to their marriage alliance with the Williams family.
However, it is also because of their relationship with the Williams family that they have always found it difficult to enter the core of the domestic government.
This is a double-edged sword.
However, the Qi family has very high standards. The fact that their daughter seems to value that young man proves that Zhao Chen is indeed worth investigating further!
