Chapter 385 - 385 Father Jing Is That Big Shot!

385 Father Jing Is That Big Shot!

“Shut up!”

Shen Yuansong angrily berated and stopped the butler from continuing.

The butler’s mouth opened and closed. After that, Shen Yuansong immediately pointed at him and shouted, “Old thing, you better shut up! Cough cough…”

Shen Yuansong began to have a fit of coughing.

!!

Only then did the butler sigh and keep quiet. He walked over and supported Old Master Shen by his arm.

Shen Yuansong only recovered from his coughs after taking a few deep breaths. He then clutched the butler’s hands tightly. “You are not permitted to say anything! Since we are not going to be re-acquainted, she is not someone from the Shen Family and has no need to know all these!”

Shen Yuansong only sent Shen Ruojing out after the butler nodded.

After they left, Shen Ruojing looked at the butler. “You should have something to say to me, right?”

“Correct!” The butler looked at Shen Ruojing. “Although my master didn’t allow me to speak, I still have to say a sentence…”

“It is all for your own good that he refuses to acknowledge you as his biological granddaughter today.”

Shen Ruojing nodded to express her understanding.

The butler respectfully sent her off, with Shen Ruojing in the lead while he lowered his head and followed behind her.

Just when the two walked toward the entrance, they coincidentally saw Shen Jiayi who was sending Wen Yuyi away. She frowned after she spotted Shen Ruojing and the butler.

At this moment, the butler saw Shen Ruojing’s motorbike lying on the ground.

He immediately took two steps forward to help her pick it back up before saying, “Miss, please.”

Shen Ruojing walked over and took over the bike. Just when she was about to get on it and leave, a voice filled with the tone of reprimanding rang out behind her.

“Shen Ruojing, hold it there!”

Shen Ruojing calmly turned her head and saw Shen Jiayi pointing at her angrily. She scolded, “Do you know who he is? He is my grandfather’s butler! In the Shen Family, his status is very high and even I have to be polite to him. Who are you to let him pick your motorbike up for you?”

Shen Yuansong’s butler, Uncle Liu, had accompanied Shen Yuansong for decades.

The Shen Family had no matriarch, so Uncle Liu was the one responsible for all matters of the family. In fact, he even had the right to execute decisions without seeking approval first.

Hence, everyone in the family knew that Uncle Liu’s status was akin to the family’s matriarch.

Shen Jiayi spoke with contempt, “Do you think Uncle Liu is a servant? What a country bumpkin, you don’t even have any insights into the greater picture. You best apologize to him right now!”

The butler. “…”

He quickly waved his hands. “Fifth Miss, I’m indeed a servant of the family…”

“Still, you are someone that reports directly to grandfather. For people like us, we have always been respectful of you, so in our hearts, you are already someone akin to an elder!” Shen Jiayi interrupted him.

“…” The butler had a look of difficulty on his face as he looked at Shen Jiayi.

He was indeed only loyal to Shen Yuansong, but Shen Ruojing was his young miss too!

Sadly, he couldn’t say this. He could only feel depressed.

As for Shen Ruojing, she didn’t think too much about it. Uncle Liu was in his fifties and was a man. Logically, he should have greater strength than her.

So, when the bike was on the ground, it was only gentlemanly from her point of view that Uncle Liu helped her. It had nothing to do with whether he was a servant or not.

After all, Shen Ruojing had never looked down on the servants of the Chu Family. Everyone was merely working a job.

If these people didn’t work, how would she have so much spare time to retire?

Hence, Shen Jiayi’s behavior was completely ignored by her. She merely glanced at her and coldly said, “Ugly people will always be up to tricks!”

Shen Jiayi. “?”

This was the first time someone had scolded her in public.

As a result, she jumped out in anger and was about to continue her tirade against Shen Ruojing, but Shen Ruojing already swung her leg over the seat and sped off.

Bzz~

The engine sound rang out and a spiral of black smoke blasted out of the exhaust, directly spraying Shen Jiayi. She was so frightened that she took a step back. After that, she wanted to curse but when she lifted her head, Shen Ruojing had vanished in the distance, leaving her behind.

Shen Jiayi. “…”

The lips of Uncle Liu who was at the side curled slightly when he saw this scene. After that, he heard Shen Jiayi’s angry voice ringing out. “I’m truly speechless! She’s an excellent specimen of a female gangster!”

Upon hearing this, Uncle Liu’s mirth slowly faded and a hint of coldness could be seen in his eyes.

His miss’s identity was so noble, yet she was being insulted by a cousin from a side branch. How depressing!

He sighed and returned to the room. He then saw Shen Yuansong sitting there calmly. After that, Uncle Liu sighed again.

Uncle Liu immediately walked toward Shen Yuansong and spoke, “Sir, the young miss has left.”

Shen Yuansong suddenly asked, “Do you think she would be happier if she grew up in the Shen Family?”

Uncle Liu immediately laughed. “Didn’t you always say that Chu Cichen is a very good candidate for a grandson-in-law? This could be considered as having your wish fulfilled!”

Shen Yuansong lowered his eyelids. “You should know I’m not talking about Shen Ruojing. I’m talking about her mother, Shen Qianhui!”

Shen Yuansong spoke with pity in his tone, “If Qianhui grew up under her mother’s care or under my care, there would be no need for her to marry a small-time actor!”

After saying this, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth. “A small-time actor that has to marry into his wife’s family. How weak is that?”

Uncle Liu immediately consoled him, “At the very least, he looks handsome. I think the little young miss resembles her father more. If not, how could she be so pretty?”

Shen Yuansong paused. “She resembles her father? You are correct, she looks completely different from Yun Yi. On the other hand, Qianhui bears a striking resemblance to Yun Yi…”

As he said this, he paused again and asked, “Ruojing resembles her father?”

His mind spun and he seemed to think of something.

Actually, ever since he first saw Ruojing, he already found her very familiar.

...

Her most striking features were her pair of peach blossom eyes…

In his impression, there was another man with such eyes. That man would often narrow his eyes and scheme against others…

Shen Yuansong started slightly as though he had discovered something!

He swiftly looked at the butler and asked, “That small-time actor who is Qianhui’s husband, do you have his photo?”

(It can’t be, right? Could he be that big shot?)

The butler immediately spoke, “I do, let me bring it for you.”

He walked up and soon returned with a file in his hand. The file contained Shen Qianhui’s information, and Jing Zhen’s photograph was within as well.
