470 The Madam!

Shen Yuansong looked at Shen Ruojing and said, “Jingjing, why don’t you bring the children and stay at the Shen Manor for a few days?”

Shen Ruojing. “?”

She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Why?”

Shen Yuansong said, “You don’t have to come with me, but I’m worried that she will secretly look for you. The Chu family is a new noble family in the capital, and their guards are not as good as the Shen family’s. You should bring the children to the Shen family first.”

Shen Ruojing looked at the old man and saw his serious expression. After that, she remained silent and said, “Okay.”

So, instead of entering the filming set, Shen Yuansong and Shen Ruojing left separately.

Chu Cichen hadn’t expected that after the three children went out for a while, Chu Tianye somehow decided to change his surname. Hence, Chu Cichen asked in surprise, “Why do you want to change your surname?”

Chu Tianye analyzed. “Brothers and sisters in other families often fight over inheritances, but our family shouldn’t face such things. Hence, I decided to sacrifice myself and go inherit the Shen family’s inheritance instead!”

Chu Xiaomeng quietly exposed him by saying, “Big brother just wants to go because the Shen family has more money!”

Chu Cichen. “..”

He twitched his lips and looked at Chu Tianye, thinking of the large pile of overseas investments he had… He originally thought that since Chu Xiaomeng only wanted to pursue a career in science and Chu Yu couldn’t currently tell what he liked or had any pursuit for money, only Chu Tianye could inherit his mantle. However, Chu Tianye actually went to the Shen family because he underestimated him?

Chu Cichen didn’t know what to say for a moment.

(Forget it, let him go.)

Chu Cichen decided that he would divide his assets between Chu Yu and Chu Xiaomeng. He would quietly compensate Chu Tianye later to make sure that the three of them had roughly equal.

Hence, Chu Cichen spoke, “Our family won’t have any disputes over inheritance. I will fairly and evenly divide it.”

Chu Tianye became anxious. “Dad, are you going to divide the Shen family’s assets as well? No way, no way, no way! It was given to me by my great-grandfather! I’m the only one who changed my surname! And the property should be centralized to ensure the stability of a corporation!”

The main successor of a wealthy family would often inherit 70% of the family’s assets to ensure that the family’s wealth would not be fragmented over generations, resulting in fragmented power.

This was also the reason why Shen Yuansong did not intend to hand over the Shen family to the three children.

Moreover, with so much wealth between the two families, even if Chu Xiaomeng and Chu Yu didn’t do anything, they wouldn’t have to worry about their food and clothing. There was nowhere to spend the extra money.

After Chu Tianye finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yu and Chu Xiaomen. “Are you two interested in making money?”

Both shook their heads.

Chu Tianye grinned and looked at Chu Cichen. “Dad, look, I’m the only one in the family who’s interested in making money~ We’re all siblings, so there’s no need to divide things so clearly~”

After speaking, he waved his hand. “Dad, don’t worry, I won’t let my brother and sister suffer when I make money!”

Chu Cichen. “…”

A flash of dim light passed through Chu Cichen’s eyes, and he smiled. “Are you sure you won’t regret it?”

“I won’t.”

“It’s up to you then.”

After Chu Cichen finished speaking, he saw Shen Ruojing packing her luggage and heading downstairs. He was taken aback and approached her, asking, “Are you going on a business trip?”

“No, Grandfather asked me to take the children to stay at the Shen Manor for a few days,” replied Shen Ruojing. She then waved her hand and led her three children outside.

Chu Cichen watched her leave and said to himself, “Jingjing, didn’t you forget something?”

After thinking for a moment, Shen Ruojing suddenly realized. “Oh, the first meeting! Chu Tianye, bring your puppy.”

“Mama, I told you it’s Shen Tianye~” Chu Tianye ran over, hugged his puppy, and eagerly wanted to ‘tour his own kingdom’.

“Let’s go~”

Shen Ruojing then took them out, and Chu Cichen was left behind. He felt angry and was gritting his teeth. Was she willing to take the dog but not him?

He stayed in place until he heard the sound of a car engine outside. After that, he quickly took a few steps and got into the passenger seat of Shen Ruojing’s car.

Shen Ruojing looked at him with confusion. “?”

Chu Cichen coughed and said, “I also want to stay at the Shen Manor for a few days.”

“…” Shen Ruojing rolled her eyes and said, “What about your luggage?”

“I’ll have the housekeeper pack it and send it over later.”

Hence, the group then went to Shen Manor.

–

On the other end, Shen Yuansong sat quietly in the car, looking ahead.

They soon arrived at Pulo Avenue, a mountain road. They followed the road up and soon arrived at a gate where well-equipped guards were checking identities. After verifying his identity, they let him in.

The car drove along the winding mountain road for fifteen minutes before finally reaching a villa covering thousands of square meters on the mountainside.

Although Shen Yuansong considered himself as the top family in the capital, he still felt inferior every time he came here. Land in the capital was scarce and expensive, so even though this place was in the suburbs, it was still costly. Only this particular family could afford to buy a mountaintop just to build a villa that they might not even live in for their entire lives.

When his car stopped at the entrance, he saw three cars with license plates from Beijing parked there already. He then quickly straightened his clothes and went inside.

A very professional and upright butler greeted him at the entrance and escorted him to the reception room. As soon as he entered, he saw a woman, wrapped in luxury clothes, sitting on the sofa in the upper area. Her face was weather-beaten, but she exuded an imposing aura. She was the same age as him, but because of good maintenance, she looked like she was in her fifties.

She had a pair of peach blossom eyes, and even though she was old, she still looked charming. At this moment, she was sitting at the top, looking at him.

Her majesty was like an ancient emperor, making people unable to help but kneel toward and worship her.

At the position below her, the heads of the other three major families in the capital had arrived and were sitting obediently there.

Shen Yuansong faced her intimidating gaze and said, “Madam, I apologize for being late.”

The noblewoman sneered. “As the top family of the capital, do you have the right to be late?”

Shen Yuansong immediately lowered his head and said, “I dare not.”

“I think you are very daring. I want to see your granddaughter, but you didn’t bring her, did you?” She spoke very fluent Chinese and was a classical beauty.

Shen Yuansong took a deep breath. “She has to care for her three children and couldn’t find time to come along.” He emphasized the word “children” intentionally before he looked at the noblewoman as he asked, “Madam, didn’t we agree on this?”

“Did we?”

The noblewoman suddenly fell silent, which made Shen Yuansong feel uneasy. After a full twenty seconds, she finally laughed lightly and pointed to the seat beside her. “Sit.”

Shen Yuansong breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he sat down, he heard a “bang” sound because the noblewoman slammed her water glass heavily on the ground. “You four, you’re all so bold…”

The four of them immediately stood up and respectfully looked at her.

Shen Yuansong’s heart clenched again. He was afraid that the noblewoman would go back on her word. But just when he was in a panic, the woman sitting at the top spoke coldly, “Old Bai, I know you have a connection with that wicked child, and now you dare to deceive me too?”

Shen Yuansong suddenly relaxed. It wasn’t his business…

He hurriedly looked at Bai Wei, who was sweating profusely. “Madam, how could I dare…”

“Then tell me, where is he?”

Shen Yuansong was also curious about where this big shot had been in China for so many years. While he was pondering, he suddenly saw the old man, Bai Wei, glancing at him…
