Chapter 411: Chapter 0411: Lacking Manners (Second Update)

Shen Yaoyao wasn’t wrong, although Chu Ge didn’t own any substantial company, in Shanghai, his assets were far richer than those of any one company.

But Chu Ge was certain that Shen Yaoyao didn’t know about this, her saying he owned a company was purely nonsense.

A hint of suspicion and envy flashed in Shen Mimi’s eyes, even though her boyfriend came from the wealthiest family, lately, he had always given her the wrong impression of being idle.

And several times he had actually asked her for money!

Although suspicion flashed in Shen Mimi’s heart, when she thought about his explanation – that he was too extravagant with money and his family had set limits on his card – she didn’t think any further.

Shen Mimi suddenly realized that she didn’t even know what Lin actually did for work, seeing that the Lin Group had so many enterprises, yet she had never asked.

"Shen Mimi, do you have any more private questions? If not, please step aside! I’m taking my boyfriend to meet my grandfather," said Shen Yaoyao, her tone somewhat cold.

Shen Mimi hummed sullenly and unwillingly moved to the side, letting them enter the villa.

The living room was filled with people. With every step closer, Shen Yaoyao’s heart grew more tense.

She was still holding onto Chu Ge’s arm, and Chu Ge could clearly feel her grip tightening, almost to the point of pain.

Chu Ge cleared his throat and, turning his head to look at Shen Yaoyao, whispered, "Are you this nervous?"

His voice was very low, audible only to the two of them. Shen Yaoyao glanced up at him and then pursed her lips, of course, she was nervous, she hadn’t been home in a long time.

She didn’t even know whether her grandfather or father had forgiven her.

Standing at the door, Shen Yaoyao took several deep breaths before she finally gathered the courage to push the door and enter.

As she walked into the living room, she immediately saw an elderly man with white hair and a face full of age, sitting right in the middle of the sofa, looking pale and sickly, utterly spiritless.

The moment Shen Yaoyao saw her grandfather, her eyes instantly reddened, she wanted to call out to him, but her choked words got stuck in her throat.

Suddenly, Shen Mimi jumped out from behind her and shouted to the people who were talking in the living room, "Grandpa, Dad, Uncle, Yaoyao is back!"

Her voice was loud and heard by everyone present.

Shen Fang’s hand, which was about to take a sip of tea, shook, spilling a bit of tea, but he quickly regained his composure.

Shen Fang slowly drank his tea, not even glancing at Shen Yaoyao, as if he hadn’t heard Shen Mimi’s announcement.

Shen Yaoyao stood there awkwardly alone. If not for having Chu Ge by her side, she might have really turned around and left at that moment.

"Grandpa, Mom and Dad, I’m back," Shen Yaoyao took a deep breath, calming her emotions.

However, after Shen Yaoyao finished speaking, it was as if the people there hadn’t heard her at all, continuing with their business as usual.

Only Shen Yaoyao’s mother, Su Fanglan, with her slightly red eyes, looked at Shen Yaoyao. She stood up from the sofa, unable to hide her excitement, and said to Shen Yaoyao, "Silly child, you finally know to come home!"

Because of her mother’s words, Shen Yaoyao felt even more wronged. She cried and threw herself into Su Fanglan’s arms, her voice choking as she said, "Mom, I missed you so much."

"Alright, alright, good child, knowing to come home is enough." Su Fanglan patted Shen Yaoyao’s back, after all, she was a part of her flesh and blood, no matter how rebellious she was back then, she could never truly be ruthless.

Su Fanglan took a deep breath, then turned her head and gave a look to her husband, "What the hell are you still sitting there for? Your daughter has brought her husband home! Stop acting already!"

Su Fanglan blatantly called him out, "Weren’t you just fussing about how Yaoyao hasn’t come home yet? Now that she’s back, you’re putting on airs."

Shen Hua sat on the left side of the sofa, pinching a cigarette between his fingers, took a fierce drag, and then looked up at Shen Yaoyao. His eyes were slightly red—how could he as a parent not worry and feel heartbroken when his daughter had such a strained relationship with the family and hadn’t come home for so many years.

"She’s back, so what’s there to fuss about?"

Shen Hua, after all, couldn’t let go of his pride and responded grumpily.

Shen Yaoyao placed her hands demurely in front of her, carefully stepped forward, and called out, "Dad."

Shen Hua took another puff of his cigarette. He did not look up at Shen Yaoyao, but from his grunted response, a choke could be heard in his throat.

Shen Yaoyao called out to mom and dad, but at this moment, Old Master couldn’t sit still.

He cleared his throat with a light cough, his demeanor indubitably authoritative, "What, after so many years away you only remember your parents and not me, your grandfather?"

Having heard her grandfather finally willing to speak to her, Shen Yaoyao burst into tears with a loud wail.

While sobbing, she stammered, "No, it’s not like that, Grandpa is the most important person in my heart."

"Hmph! If I’m so important, why didn’t you come home after being in Su City for so many days? You even stayed at someone else’s house; do you not have a home of your own, or do you no longer consider this your home?"

Shen Fang, somewhat exasperated, spoke. Shen Yaoyao was the apple of his eye, and when he heard she had come back to Su City, his joy was beyond words.

But after waiting two days without her coming home, only then did he find out she had stayed with the Tang Family!

Feeling somewhat wronged, Shen Yaoyao pouted, "I was worried Grandpa was still angry with me, and I didn’t dare to come back."

"Hmph!" Shen Fang snorted lightly but said nothing further.

Seeing this, Su Fanglan knew the old man had already let go of his anger, quickly stepped forward and pulled Shen Yaoyao to sit on the sofa, "Good child, now that you’re back, you should come home. This is your home, and it will always be."

"Mom..." Shen Yaoyao felt an unprecedented sense of happiness. She originally thought her family would reject her, but to her surprise, they still loved her the same as before.

The atmosphere suddenly became very harmonious, but on the other side, it turned a bit weird.

Shen Mimi felt rather displeased seeing that the Old Master didn’t blame Shen Yaoyao at all.

With slight annoyance, she said, "Ms. Yaoyao has been out there for so long, only remembers her own parents, and has forgotten all about us sisters and her uncles."

Shen Mimi’s remark made the faces of the other elders present darken.

Shen Tong, her father, nodded in strong agreement and said, "Yeah, Yaoyao, ever since you entered the door, you haven’t even looked straight at your Second Uncle, not to mention calling me Second Uncle. All these years of learning outside, haven’t you even grasped basic manners?"

Shen Yaoyao had never held much affection for this part of the family.

Now hearing them say this, out of respect for her parents, she didn’t argue and simply obediently called out, "Second Uncle."
