Chapter 592: The Frightening Stare

s.h.i.+ Peng was clearly his biological son. He looked exactly like him when he was young.

He did not understand. As his son, why was his temperament so odd? He was not ambitious at all.

“Am I really the gate to the future of the s.h.i.+ family? Why do I feel that the s.h.i.+ family does not place the hope on me or Qing Qing but Chenxi? Dad, since you have your own plan, then nurture Qi Chenxi well. Qing Qing and I will not join in the fun. In the future, you can utilize all the resources of the s.h.i.+ family on Chenxi. Qi Minlan and you have been blaming me for not willing to help Chenxi. This time, I’m being generous. I promise that I will not stop you from giving all of what the s.h.i.+ family has to Chenxi. Although Qing Qing is a lady, her temper is strong. I believe she’ll be able to create a bright future for herself through her own efforts.”

Hence, he did not yearn for anything of the s.h.i.+ family, and nor did Qing Qing.

“You, you’re resenting me for disliking the fact that Qing Qing is a granddaughter and not a grandson? Even if this is so, she’s also my biological granddaughter, right? Am I not good to her?” Old Master s.h.i.+ was driven mad. How could a true man who did great things take issue with such trivial matters?

Didn’t he treat Chenxi well for the sake of the s.h.i.+ family?

When Chenxi married Zhai Sheng and lent the s.h.i.+ family a helping hand thereafter, would he, an old man who had one of his legs in the coffin, truly gain anything from this? From all perspectives, wasn’t he doing it for the sake of his son, s.h.i.+ Peng?

As for Qing Qing…

As long as Chenxi was around, regardless of who Qing Qing was married to in the future, the other party would have second thoughts on bullying Qing Qing once he took her family status into account.

Qing Qing had been shortchanged a little now. Nevertheless, she would enjoy great happiness in the future. How was it possible that he would not be good to his son and granddaughter?

Was it meaningful to compete for temporary gains?

“s.h.i.+ Peng, you’ve always been a smart child. I’m really very disappointed that you’ll think in such a way!”

“My father, you’re not the only one who’s disappointed. Me, too. Since we’re so disappointed with each other, let’s not force each other then. When Qing Qing was five years old, you punished her and made her run until she fainted just because she s.n.a.t.c.hed a doll from Qiu Chenxi. Do you know how bad my heart ached back then?”

The matter that was still fresh in s.h.i.+ Qing’s memory, her father, s.h.i.+ Peng, had never forgotten it too.

“You, you still bear a grudge against me regarding this? This young brat, without your father, would you be born to this world? Is your father or your daughter more important? Moreover, nothing happened to Qing Qing, right? We’re soldiers. Don’t we already know that this will happen if we run too much at one go? We’ll be fine after resting for a while, won’t we?”

“Dad, if I was the one who s.n.a.t.c.hed toys from Qi Minlan in the past and Qi Minlan cried, would you punish me and make me run until I fainted in order to appease Qi Minlan?” s.h.i.+ Peng asked coldly.

“…”

On the other end of the phone, Old Master s.h.i.+ was silent.

This was because he knew. He would not!

Hence, all being said, Old Master s.h.i.+ still disliked s.h.i.+ Qing for being a granddaughter and not a grandson. He chose to punish s.h.i.+ Qing without hesitation for the sake of building a good relations.h.i.+p with Qiu Chenxi, and due to the relations.h.i.+p between Qiu Chenxi and Zhai Sheng. This was so that Qiu Chenxi would take a liking to her maternal grandfather.
