Chapter 16 (2/2)

—————————–

Elder Shen lives in an upscale district in the city.

The land price and scenery here are not as good as those of Shen Yu's suburban villa, but people are not very fond of the cold when they are old, and the atmosphere here is lively, the traffic is convenient, and the other old residents can mingle in the square.

Who can imagine that Elder Shen, who was a business tyrant more than a decade ago, had now integrated into an ordinary person's life, playing chess, walking around and mingling in the square every day, and then calling Shen Yu to urge him to give this grandpa a great-grandson. It was truly a life of leisure.

When Uncle Zhang drove to the parking lot of the Elder Shen's residence, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

Shen Yu got out of the car and tidied up his own clothes and then tidied Tang Li's. Then he told Uncle Zhang to go out and get himself something for dinner and to use Shen Yu's personal credit card to pay. Afterwards, he could pick them up when called.

Uncle Zhang responded affirmatively.

Shen Yu was a little nervous when he took the elevator upstairs. He gently pinched Tang Li's hand.

Tang Li looked up at him.

“We're having dinner here tonight. If Grandpa Shen or anyone else tells you anything, don't pay attention to it.” Shen Yu looked at Tang Li's bright eyes and said with a light smile, “We'll go home after dinner.”

Tang Li wrinkled his face and nodded very seriously.

Shen Yu touched Tang Li's head and said, “My Chestnut is really good.”

Tang Li squinted, like a pet enjoying his master's touch. Subconsciously, he raised his face and rubbed Shen Yu's palm. After he asked, “Do I need to pretend to be sick?”

Shen Yu was stunned, “Hmm?”

He did not understand what Tang Li meant.

Tang Li said, “If you don't like to stay there, I can pretend to be ill later so that you can find an excuse to leave early.”

Shen Yu: “… It's all right.”

Despite the light expression and att.i.tude of Shen Yu, in his heart, he was shocked.

He admitted that the main reason why he brought Tang Li was that he could use Tang Li's discomfort as an excuse to get away from the dinner arranged by Elder Shen as soon as possible, but he never told Tang Li this idea.

After all, Tang Li is so small that he might not necessarily understand what Shen Yu meant.

Unexpectedly, Tang Li didn't need his explanation at all. Shen Yu's purpose was a.n.a.lyzed from his words and deeds.

At the same time, Shen Yu's eyes that were looking at Tang Li, held mixed feelings – the smart and precocious little villain made him feel intimidated.

Shen Yu took the hand of the little villain and found Elder Shen's house with a familiar ease. The servant who came to open the door belonged to Elder Shen's house.

Although Elder Shen is not critical of this urban living environment, he would never allow himself to feel any unneeded discomfort in life. As a result, there are more than ten servants and cooks who directly worked for him.

“Mr. Shen is here.” The servant who opened the door laughed and said, “Come in quickly. Elder Shen has been talking for a long time. Miss Yang is here too.”

Shen Yu grinned bitterly when he heard Miss Yang's name.

He led Tang Li to the living room, and saw Elder Shen sitting on the sofa, talking up a storm and staring at him. Beside him, sat a beautiful girl with long black hair, looking like a little jasper spirit.

Without waiting for Shen Yu to speak, Elder Shen jumped up angrily and rebuked him with an tone of exaggerated hatred: “Do you know what time it is, boy? It's ten past seven! You let me wait here with Little Yang. You must be really mad at me!”

Shen Yu knows that Elder Shen is an irritable character, so he was not annoyed after being scolded. He turns his head to the beautiful girl and smiles politely. “Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the journey here.”

The girl did not expect Shen Yu's first sentence after he entered the door to be directed at her, suddenly a little fl.u.s.tered the girl quickly stood up, and with red cheeks, both flattered and shocked, she said: “Oh, it's no problem at all, I have also just arrived.”

Shen Yu nodded calmly: “That's good.”

“What's good?! You've got a pretty girl waiting for you, so you're dare to say it's good?!”

When Master Shen finished his angry speech, he suddenly saw Tang Li standing beside Shen Yu, expressionless. In a flash, all the fire disappeared completely and Elder Shen's whole face bloomed with joy.

“Ah, Chestnut! Come over here. Are they still wearing school uniforms nowadays? Is it hard to study? Have you adapted to the new environment?”

“The new school is very good. Thank you, Grandpa Shen.”

“Chestnut is so sweet. I wish I had a great-grandson who is as obedient and sensible as Chestnut.” Elder Shen laughed, glancing at Shen Yu, who pretended to be deaf and dumb, while reaching out to touch Tang Li's head.

Elder Shen's hand had not yet touched Tang Li's hair, when suddenly the little villain backed away.

“Grandpa Shen.” Tang Li said solemnly, “The teacher said that a man's head cannot be touched casually.”

Elder Shen was stunned, and then he was laughed in amus.e.m.e.nt: “Good, no one can touch the head of our mighty Chestnut.”

Before long, the servant announced that dinner was ready.

The group headed to the dining room. The table was already full of delicious food. There were no special delicacies. Instead, they were all home-cooked dishes.

Elder Shen's eyes s.h.i.+fted between Shen Yu and the girl. Suddenly, he thought of something good. He turned to Tang Li and spoke in a kind tone, “Chestnut, this is the first time Grandpa Shen has gotten to see you. Come and sit with Grandpa Shen. Grandpa Shen will tell you a story.”

As he said this, Elder Shen grabbed Tang Li's hand and winked at Shen Yu.

If Elder Shen and Tang Li sat on the same side, then Shen Yu can only sit on the opposite side with the girl.

Shen Yu felt helpless. Although he rejected the blind date, he could not help giving the girl some face. He sighed and manipulated the wheelchair to the opposite side of the table and made a gesture of invitation to the girl.

“Thank you.” The girl lowered her head and was too shy to look directly into Shen Yu's eyes. She was just about to sit down when suddenly, a black shadow flashed across her eyes.

The girl paused for a moment. When she finally responded, she found that the chair next to Shen Yu was already occupied by a cold-looking boy dressed in his school uniform.

Tang Li sniffed, looked up pitifully at Shen Yu, and said in a childish tone that Shen Yu had never heard before: “Big brother, I want to sit with you.”
