Chapter 729: Chapter 438: Untouchable, Preparing to Go Abroad, Manager Fang Minhui

Red bills scattered over him, Shen Yaode’s smile gradually froze, and his wife He Juying’s face turned even darker and more terrifying.

Actually, Shen Heping was secretly delighted too, but he still stood up to smooth things over, frowning as he scolded his son, “Yuan, what are you doing? How can you treat your uncle like this!”

Old Shen was indeed an old drama bone; Shen Yuan really wanted to laugh, but at this moment he had to play along and said, “Ah, sorry Uncle, I just didn’t hold it steady.”

Shen Yaode laughed awkwardly, “It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ll just pick it up.”

After finishing his words, Shen Yaode actually bent down to pick them up, but He Juying, unable to hold it back, kicked him. To be bullied to this extent and still not dare to turn his face, really spineless!

He Juying looked at the indifferent family and couldn’t swallow her pride, sarcastically saying, “Yuan makes so much money, willing to donate to strangers, but unwilling to support our family, it wouldn’t sound good if word spreads, would it?”

Li Hongjuan glared, “What does my son’s earnings have to do with you? He can spend it however he pleases, and you have no right to morally kidnap him,” as she was about to retort, Shen Yuan stepped in front of her smiling, and said:

“Aunt is right, I’ll send 200,000 to my uncle’s family tomorrow, no investments nor loans, just as a thank you for looking after me and my sister back then.”

He Juying choked, struggling to breathe, her chest even started to ache.

Shen Yaode carefully picked up the money and put it in his pocket, he opened his mouth wanting to say something more but He Juying couldn’t suppress her anger anymore and vented it all on Shen Yaode.

“Let’s go, what else is there to say! You have embarrassed us to this point, I told you not to come but you insisted!”

He Juying directly dragged Shen Yaode away by the hand.

Li Hongjuan was never going to send them off, as soon as the two of them walked out, she directly closed the door saying delightedly: “Dealing with these kinds of people requires this kind of method, being easy-going like your father, they would come again next time!”

Shen Heping squinted slightly, “Well, you can’t really say that, face still need to be maintained. One plays the good cop, and the other plays bad cop.”

Shen Yuan nodded, “Mom is right, be a bit harsher this time, and they won’t come back next time. It’ll also deter other relatives who might think of sponging off us.”

Li Hongjuan raised her hand and flicked Shen Yuan’s head, “You’ve got some nerve, appearing on the news and newspapers and not telling your parents, not returning home for a month or two, do you even have your parents in your heart? Huh?”

“Ouch, why are you still hitting my head at this age?”

Shen Yuan rubbed his head, in apparent pain, “I’ve been busy, but here I am, back to see you now.”

Li Hongjuan doesn’t care whether Shen Yuan is a big boss outside, a billionaire, or how high his status is, the moment he steps into this house, he is her son.

She scoffed, “Hmm, probably did something guilty again, or perhaps planning to go on a long trip, so you thought of visiting.”

Ji Ya, witnessing her boss being reprimanded for the first time, struggled to hold back her laughter.

As the saying goes, ‘A mother knows her son best’, Shen Yuan did not plan to hide, “I’m going on a business trip soon, probably about a week.”

“Where to?”

“Japan.”

“Going that far. Is it absolutely necessary?”

Li Hongjuan, although harsh with her words, was ultimately the worried mother of her own son, after getting a confirmed reply, she said with concern, “It’s not peaceful overseas now, your father keeps hearing about wars here and upheavals there, you must be careful. Research the local news and information before going, and try not to go out at night….”

All Shen Yuan could hear was nagging, “Alright mom, it’s Japan, not the Middle East, it’s not as chaotic as you think.”

Seeing that Shen Yuan wasn’t listening, Li Hongjuan further instructed Ji Ya, “Little Ya, you must keep an eye on him and not let him mess around, it’s not like it is here, the rules are different, and since the place is unfamiliar, you won’t find acquaintances easily if something happens.”

Ji Ya agreed one by one, reassuring her, “Don’t worry aunty, we will bring a translator and bodyguard for this trip, and will have everything planned beforehand–schedules and hotel bookings will be finalized before we leave.”

Shen Yuan, not wanting to listen to the women nagging, went to sit next to Old Shen, “Old Shen, have many people been visiting recently?”

“There have been some.”

Shen Heping began counting on his fingers, “It started with people from the district office, and then people from the district’s investment attraction office also came, and afterwards, when our relatives and friends found out, basically there would be one or two groups every day.”

“Either they come for favors, or to burn incense, basically all bringing gifts.”

As Shen Heping said this, his face looked somewhat flushed. Although those visits were purpose-driven, he indeed enjoyed these recent visits, feeling a vague sense of holding power.

Unexpected that at this age, he could still indulge in the thrill of bureaucracy because of his son.

“You haven’t accepted any gifts, have you?” Shen Yuan asked.

Shen Heping shook his head, “Of course not, after accepting them, it’d be hard to refuse their requests for help. I understand this principle.”

“That’s good. It should just be during this period, afterwards, I’ll no longer let them put me in the news or anything like that.”

“Better keep a low profile, the tall tree catches much wind.”

As much as he enjoyed it, Shen Heping hoped more that his son could continue to develop steadily.

…..

Shen Yaode and his wife took the elevator to the first floor, and He Juying still felt unsatisfied, grumbling, “Look at what kind of relatives these are, worth at least several hundred million, donating 10 million or millions abroad, yet so stingy to relatives, refusing even to lend or invest!”

Shen Yaode helplessly said, “Just accumulate some virtue, would my cousin have lent us the startup capital otherwise, would we have been able to start our car wash business? And it was all because you insisted last time to force them to pay debts, weren’t things going well before? If we didn’t press for the debt, wouldn’t they have agreed to invest or lend?”
