NovelEnglishChapter 98: Selfish (1)
Naturally, Old Master Chen was the one who was most pleased when Ye Sui and Chen Shu came back safely. While other Chen family members had their own thoughts, formal ceremonies still had to go according to the Chen family’s rules.
Although they gave gifts with smiles on their faces, Ye Sui could see that they were merely keeping up appearances.
Ye Sui didn’t care what these people thought. She knew how great Chen Shu was, and everyone present couldn’t compare with him.
At the beginning of the meal, while others chatted and laughed, Ye Sui and Chen Shu remained silent and took care of each other’s foods.
This calm was quickly broken when a person casually mentioned, “Ye Sui, you are in a wheelchair. It must have been inconvenient for you to come back.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I was near Lu City at the time. I would have picked you up if I knew.” The person’s words were pleasant to hear, but it was only a verbal courtesy.
Ye Sui’s face changed slightly. She could discern that the man was accusing Chen Shu of being incapable. The man’s tone reminded her of their rumors about Chen Shu depending on his wife.
“How can it be troublesome?” Ye Sui’s voice was a little cold as she blurted out, “I came back on my husband’s private jet.”
Ye Sui just wanted to show off her husband, but she accidentally mentioned his wealth.
She tilted her head and looked at Chen Shu. Her hand reached out and touched his hand.
Chen Shu had seen through Ye Sui’s thoughts and did not refute her. She wanted to defend him wholeheartedly, which he fully understood.
Private plane?
Chen Xiu’s movements froze, along with his chopsticks. His uncle lived on the Chen Family’s trust fund. It was nowhere enough to buy a private jet, not to mention the maintenance cost.
Chen Xiu and Chang Ying glanced at each other. He felt that he had guessed right earlier. Not only did his little uncle make money, but he also made a load of it.
Although they had rejected the idea that Chen Shu was Huarui’s president, it was an absolute fact that he had made some achievements in his career.
Everyone at the dinner table was stunned. Hadn’t Chen Shu accomplished nothing in the eyes of the Chen Family? Since when did Chen Shu not only make money but could also afford a private jet?
Was it because of Ye Sui?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOld Master Chen looked at Chen Shu. His eyes contained praise but also concealed deep meaning. He then rebuked the unkind relative from earlier.
At the end of dinner, Ye Sui was called to the study alone by Chen Shu’s father.
Old Master Chen clearly remembered the fortune-teller’s words: his youngest son would have a great calamity before the age of thirty. If he didn’t get through it, he would die.
The Chen Family had never disclosed Chen Shu’s identity because he did not want to let exposure affect his life and death. Old Master Chen had no other wishes, only hoping that Chen Chul could live a safe life.
And what Ye Sui said at the dinner table let him know that his youngest son was competent. Without relying on the family’s strength, he still had a successful career.
The heir of the Chen Family was not set in stone yet. Maybe it was time to reconsider it.
Old Master Chen did not ask Ye Sui about Chen Shu’s business. He believed that even if Chen Shu made money, it would not be comparable to the billion-dollar Chen Group.
Old Master Chen: “I’ll find an opportunity to disclose Chen Shu’s identity to the media.”
Ye Sui lowered her eyes and said after contemplating, “It’s not necessary.”
Old Master Chen was startled. He didn’t understand why Ye Sui would refuse such a request.
