Chapter 26: Chapter 26

Shen Qingyue’s eyes were filled with a hint of coldness. “What do you say? Let’s calculate properly then. How much money did you take from Grandfather in the past?”

“You…” Shen Xiang hesitated for a long time but could not come up with a rebuttal.

“Enough arguing,” Shen Jun’s voice was not loud but carried a strong sense of intimidation. “Qingyue is right. After all, you have to repay the borrowed money. Having more loan agreements is just an additional procedure. Let’s listen to Qingyue.”

Shen Xiang’s eyes darkened. “I… I’m just angry that she doesn’t trust me!”

Shen Jun was also displeased. “Whenever you spoke about trust in the past, did Qingyue not believe you?”

After all, Shen Jun could not even remember how much money he had lent to his younger brother.

Shen Xiang was afraid that he would not be able to get any more money from Shen Jun, so he reluctantly fell silent.

After finishing the meal, Shen Xiang led his family respectfully to see Shen Jun and Shen Xun off.

Once they were gone, Shen Yiyan could not hold back anymore. “Shen Qingyue is becoming more and more unruly. She stole my project, and now she’s targeting Grandfather! She wasn’t like this before…”

Shen Xiang also cursed, “Hmph! Yiyan, you have to stand up for yourself and gather all those old folks from the board of directors to your side. When my brother dies, Shen Group will definitely be yours. That brat can dream all she wants about inheriting the Shen family.”

Shen Yiyan nodded heavily.

…

On the way, Shen Jun finally asked, “Didn’t you used to like your Granduncle? What happened today?”

Shen Qingyue leaned her head on her grandfather’s shoulder. “As you said, that was in the past. Granduncle has too many twisted thoughts. He claimed to have lost money in an investment, but who knows where that money actually went! You already know what Shen Yiyan has done. Their family is not as honest as they seem.”

Hearing this, a faint smile disappeared from Shen Jun’s face. “If it weren’t for you discovering it, I would have never thought that Yiyan would do such things right under my nose…”

Shen Qingyue initially mentioned that Shen Yiyan embezzled company funds, and he did not believe her until she presented the evidence. He treated Shen Yiyan as a family member, but not only did Shen Yiyan want to profit for himself, he also aimed to take over the company. It chilled his heart. No matter what, he established Shen Group as a foundation for his own children, not for charity.

Shen Qingyue held his hand. “Grandfather, if we hadn’t discovered their ambitions in advance, we wouldn’t be prepared.”

Shen Jun sighed and reluctantly nodded.

At this moment, Shen Qingyue’s phone rang. It was a message from her assistant. Wei Jiu’er had taken care of the news.

Shen Qingyue raised an eyebrow. She had already cooperated with Wei Jiu’er for the act today, and this woman still had not given up? Did she really think Shen Qingyue was afraid? Shen Qingyue thought about sending a message to her former husband as a response, but as soon as she had that thought, she saw Qin Zhen standing at the entrance of the old Shen family mansion. It was obvious that he was waiting for her.

The driver naturally noticed and asked Shen Jun, “Sir, it’s Mr. Qin… Should we stop?”

Shen Jun?snorted. “Ignore him.”

However, Shen Qingyue said, “Grandfather, I have a few words to say to him. Please go inside first.”

Shen Jun was worried. “You won’t regret it, will you?”

Shen Qingyue smiled wryly. “It’s about something else.”

Shen Jun hesitated and nodded.

Shen Qingyue got out of the car. “Mr. Qin, what brings you here so late?”

Qin Zhen looked at her with a solemn gaze. “Have you seen the news?”

“Yes,” Shen Qingyue naturally knew what he was referring to.

Qin Zhen frowned. “Before the divorce, you were already involved with that man, right?”

The news was taken down too quickly, and he did not see anything clearly. This could only mean that someone felt guilty and covered up the news. And the only person capable of removing the news was Shen Qingyue.

Shen Qingyue, after making a sarcastic remark, did not wait for Qin Zhen to say anything and directly said, “Those photos were taken secretly at the Moonlight Bar last night. You were there too.”

Qin Zhen had specifically gone to Shen’s house last night to confirm that Shen Qingyue indeed hadn’t spent the night outside. Thinking of this, a stone dropped in Qin Zhen’s heart. He warned her again, “You just divorced me. It’s best to stay away from other men and not embarrass our families.”

Shen Qingyue sneered, “You shouldn’t be saying that to me, especially since you, Mr. Qin, had an affair while still married. Do you really need to tell me these things?”

Qin Zhen’s face turned ugly. “Wei Jiu’er and I didn’t do anything that night at the hotel!”

“Oh,” Shen Qingyue clearly did not believe his words. Qin Zhen felt a tightness in his chest. They were already divorced, so why bother explaining anything?
