Chapter 349: Disliking Me, Huh?

Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Disliking Me, Huh?

Honda Sakura said this with a hint of viciousness in her gaze, mentioning that the seniors had not been dealt with at the Public Sea meeting, which is why the higher-ups decided to change the plan and develop a base in Su City.

But now, the situation in Su City was controlled by the Shen Family and the Tang Family. Initially, the plan was to have Xiao Jingsheng marry Tang Xin and use the Tang Family’s influence to eliminate the Shen Family. However, from the information she intercepted today, there seemed to be a trend of cooperation between the Tang Family and the Shen Family.

They had finally managed to drive a wedge between the two families; they absolutely could not allow them a chance to merge again.

Xiao Jingsheng, glancing at his irate mother, slightly frowned and left without saying much.

When Chu Ge and Nangong Man Sha returned to the hotel, they happened to encounter the three Japanese men leaving the hotel.

The groups just brushed past each other, and the three Japanese men, chatting away in Japanese, quickly left the hotel.

Nangong Man Sha stood still, frowning as she watched their departing figures, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing that she hadn’t followed, Chu Ge stopped and asked with a puzzled expression, "What’s wrong?"

Nangong Man Sha glanced around, then pulled his hand and quickly stepped into the elevator.

Now alone in the elevator, Nangong Man Sha finally exhaled slowly, her expression solemn, "I just heard those Japanese talking about Mr. Tang. It seems like his sudden illness was their doing!"

Chu Ge felt no surprise, leaning casually against the wall with a faint smile curving his lips, "It seems these people still haven’t given up, hoping to stir up trouble in Su City."

Chu Ge had already guessed their real purpose, hence he felt even more at ease.

They were just a few ninjas, not worth fearing.

Seeing his unsurprised demeanor, Nangong Man Sha paused, "Did you already know?"

Chu Ge nodded, "I asked Mr. Tang directly while treating him."

Although Mr. Tang did not explicitly state that it was those three Japanese who had poisoned him, Chu Ge already knew in his heart that these Japanese were behind it.

Nangong Man Sha pouted, crossing her arms, slightly exasperated she sighed, "You had me all excited to tell you like I was revealing a treasure, and here you knew it all along. If you knew, why didn’t you tell me?"

Chu Ge didn’t respond; he wanted to, but there was no time.

They had come straight from the hospital to the hotel; he couldn’t possibly have told her in a taxi, could he?

Just then, Chu Ge’s phone rang, interrupting their conversation. Seeing the name on the display, a smile appeared on his face.

Nangong Man Sha, noticing his expression, felt slightly jealous, and with a tint of sarcasm asked, "What, is it your little lover calling?"

Chu Ge gave her a smiling look, "What little lover? This is my fiancée!"

Nangong Man Sha felt even more jealous.

They walked out of the elevator, and although the phone had stopped ringing, Chu Ge immediately redialed the number.

Within three seconds, Mu Bingtong answered the phone.

"I was in the elevator just now; the new number isn’t very good," Chu Ge explained.

Unable to hear what was said on the other end, Nangong Man Sha followed Chu Ge, only seeing his shoulders shaking with laughter, looking incredibly joyous.

Really, over just a phone call? Pfft.

Nangong Man Sha sneered lightly, then strode into the room and forcefully closed the door behind her.

The sound was loud, and just as Chu Ge was about to open the door, he was startled by the sudden noise, and when he turned back, the door opposite was already shut.

"What happened?" Mu Bingtong asked in confusion on the other end of the phone.

Chu Ge smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, just a little wildcat knocked something over."

Listening from behind the door, Nangong Man Sha heard the words ’little wildcat,’ and immediately stomped her feet in anger. Although she knew he couldn’t see her expression through the door, she couldn’t help but make a face at it.

At the same time, Shen Congwen returned to the Shen Family’s house and saw multiple elders sitting in the hall with somewhat grave expressions as soon as he entered.

Sitting in the highest seat was the Old Master of the Shen Family, Shen Congwen’s grandfather, Shen Wei Qian.

Shen Wei Qian looked at Shen Congwen with a face full of anger, and said with a resonant voice, "Where did you go?"

Shen Congwen glanced around lightly, his gaze finally resting on Shen Conghai in the farthest corner, who was looking at him with a face full of schadenfreude.

Shen Congwen understood, it turned out Shen Conghai had tattled.

"I went to Old Master Tang’s birthday banquet," Shen Congwen answered truthfully.

Since Shen Conghai had already disclosed his whereabouts, there was no need for him to keep it a secret any longer!

As expected, Shen Wei Qian became enraged upon hearing this, slamming the table and shouting, "Who allowed you to go! Ah?"

Shen Congwen stood straight in the middle of the hall, "I went on my own."

"You!" Shen Wei Qian didn’t expect Shen Congwen to admit it so directly, but then he thought about it, knowing that it was just his grandson’s nature, and he sighed silently.

"Congwen, how can you be so foolish? Knowing full well our Shen Family and the Tang Family are at odds, you still thought of going to celebrate his birthday?" This was said by Shen Congwen’s second uncle, Shen Xianming.

Shen Congwen nodded slightly and said indifferently, "It’s precisely because of the years of discord between our Shen Family and the Tang Family that our family seems grand but is actually hollow inside."

Both the Tang Family and Shen Family seem prosperous, but they could no longer withstand any big storms and could face bankruptcy with just a slight mishap.

Shen Congwen glanced sideways at his second uncle, Shen Xianming, "Second Uncle, have you not noticed that your living expenses have been reduced a lot recently? The Shen Family no longer has surplus money to support idleness."

Shen Xianming’s face turned ashen, trembling with anger as he pointed his shaking hands at Shen Congwen, "How dare you, Shen Congwen, think that your second uncle can’t manage you? Huh? Showing such disrespect! Do you know who you are talking to?"

Shen Congwen stubbornly turned his head away; he of course knew who he was talking to.

Shen Xianming, who was brought into the family by the grandfather and raised with hardships, not only showed no gratitude but also wanted to reap without sowing, having never worked and always relying on his family, was a true parasite.

And yet, the grandfather had no way to deal with him.

Seeing he couldn’t persuade Shen Congwen, Shen Xianming turned his accusations toward Shen Congwen’s father, Shen Xianli.

"Big brother, you see, this is the good son you’ve raised, showing no respect to his second uncle at all!"

Already troubled by Shen Congwen’s matter, Shen Xianli grew even more annoyed as he listened to Shen Xianli rambling on.

"Congwen is right. If you would actually go out and get a job instead of always staying at home and leeching off us, he wouldn’t speak to you like this!"

Shen Xianming didn’t expect Shen Xianli to side with Shen Congwen and was momentarily speechless, repeatedly nodding his head, "Fine! Fine, you all just despise me."
