Chapter 899: It Wasn’t Her (18)

Shen Zihao looked at Mei Feng with a puzzled expression. “Why would I need their family’s help?”

Mei Feng answered through gritted teeth, “Senior Master is on the brink of bringing Shen Liangchuan back into the Shen family! How could you not be anxious?”

Shen Zihao was at a complete loss now. “What is there to be anxious about?”

“Senior Master is going to hand over the lead of the Shen family to Shen Liangchuan! Your father has been nothing but anxious these days. The head of this family should belong to your father, and he will pass it on to you.”

Shen Zihao listened to this with a great realization. “Hence, you feel that I am no match for Shen Liangchuan. That’s why you wish to find me in-laws that will secure my position, right?”

Mei Feng nodded.

Shen Zihao clenched his fists tightly and said, “I understand now, Aunty Mei.”

Thinking that he was no longer angry, Mei Feng hung her head and sighed deeply. “Zihao, I- I know that I’m wrong thinking this. But I have to do this for you and your future. Nuannuan’s parents cannot benefit you in any way and will only become a burden to you. Shen Liangchuan is so strong, I’m just afraid that you won’t be his match… that in the end, you will have nothing.”

She raised her hand to wipe her tears.

Then, raising her head to look at Shen Zihao, she added, “Zihao… I did all of this for your own good.”

Looking up, she thought that she would find Shen Zihao’s forgiving gaze but unexpectedly, she was confronted with his determined expression.

Stunned, the next thing Mei Feng heard coming from Shen Zihao was, “Aunty Mei, although we’re not mother and son, we have a similar relationship. I thought that you understood me well enough, even if some things were left unsaid. But now, let me tell you my thoughts.”

Suddenly, Mei Feng had a bad feeling about this.

Shen Zihao continued, “First of all, I’m a man. Shen Liangchuan did not marry a wife that came from a powerful family. Why should I depend on my wife to fight my battles?”

Mei Feng was stunned to hear this.

Shen Zihao continued, “Secondly, I’ve never thought about fighting for anything! All I can do is be the best person I can be. I’m sure Grandad values people’s abilities. Besides, the Shen family was built generation upon generation, by our grandfathers. This family belongs to them and he can give the power to whoever he wishes. Why would I need to fight for it?”

Mei Feng was once again stumped. She hesitated for a moment and then said, “Zihao, all of the money… Don’t you want any of it? You…”

Looking at her steadily, Shen Zihao said after a pause, “Aunty Mei, even if my big brother takes over the lead of the Shen family, I’m still part of the family. He won’t banish me. Isn’t that so?”

Mei Feng was left speechless.

She looked at Shen Zihao.

At this point, she suddenly realized something.

The boy who had been following her lead all this time was now a grown-up.

She widened her eyes as she saw Shen Zihao looking at her with an unmistakable expression of disappointment. “Finally, Aunty Mei, all of these were your own assumptions. Did you ask my opinion when you did these things?”

“Even if you didn’t agree, you could’ve told me directly. Such unscrupulous means…”

Shen Zihao frowned deeply and did not continue.

He stood up and said, looking at Mei Feng, “Aunty Mei, I’m sorry, I cannot see eye to eye with you.”

When he stood up to leave, Mei Feng started panicking. She asked, “Where are you going?”

“Nuannuan is my wife. I’ll go where she is. I’ll go and look for her.”
