Chapter 8 Don't cry, I'll take you home
xplanation! Otherwise, we will definitely raze the Zeng family to the ground today!"Other powerful figures also chimed in, their words laced with impatience!In fact, long ago...Then they were going to...At the Shangguan family dinner, no one spoke a word. Everyone was just bowing their heads and eating, creating an eerie silence. The exquisitely prepared, high-end dishes tasted bland in their mouths. Time seemed to drag on, making it a torturous experience.
After finishing the meal, Elder Shangguan called his three sons to his study.
The expressions on the faces of those in the living room were varied. Each person wore a different mask, hiding their true thoughts and feelings within.
About 20 minutes later, the three people walked down.
The old man's steward said to let Shangguan Jingyan and his three grandsons go up.
Then a few more people went up. Qi Shuhua pulled Shangguan Ting and asked the old man something. Shangguan Ting's face wasn't very good, he didn't say much, just let Qi Shuhua be quiet for a while.
After ten minutes or so, these people also came down.
Shangguan Jingyan and Shangguan Jingchen are already married, Shangguan Jingnan is only in college. The housekeeper told Tan Qingwu and Su Man to go upstairs.
Tan Qingwu understood. The old man should talk to them separately.
In the study, Old Master Shangguan's voice was hoarse and heavy with weakness.
"Qingwu, Xiaoman, please sit down."
Suman sat on the sofa, sweetly asking the old man how his health was and if he had rested well.
While Tan Qingwu only cried out, "Grandpa."
She's not as sweet-talking as Sumana.
But the old man didn't care about this, he chatted with them for a few sentences.
The steward brought out two brown paper bags. Old Master Shangguan was too weak to speak. Hejia, his right-hand man, spoke for him, "Young Mistress One, Young Mistress Two, these are for you. Inside are shares of the Shangguan Group. Please choose whichever you like."
Su Man asked, "Choose one Uncle He, are these two different"
He Xun, "almost..."
Hearing this from He Guanjia, Su Man's expression grew serious. You see, even a fraction of Shangguan family's shares is incredibly important.
It has been two years since she married the second young master of Shangguan, and she has also spent some time in the Shangguan family. She acted coquettishly towards He Guanjia to get closer to him. Su Man felt that she was different from Tan Qingwu. Although the Tan family's power was much stronger than the Su family, she had been in the Shangguan family for two years and was relatively familiar with the people of the Shangguan family, while Tan Qingwu probably hadn't even seen Mr. Shangguan a few times before.
But He Xun did not tell Su Man which shares were more, he only urged Su Man, "Second Miss, have you considered it"
Seeing her flattery fail, Su Man casually picked one.
Upon opening it, 5% of the shares were found.
"That's not bad either! She happily expressed her gratitude to the old man and then looked at Tan Qingwu, "How much is yours Open it up and let me see!"
Tan Qingwu had no interest in these shares, nor did she open them immediately. She looked at Old Master Shangguan, "Grandpa, you called us up here just to give us shares" But she saw that the few people who came down before her had come empty-handed.
She lowered her head, staring at the leather paper bag in her hand and pondering slightly, "I just joined the Shang family recently. This share, it's better to keep it with Grandpa for now."
Saying that, he placed the shares on the tea table.
Su Man let out a disdainful snort. "So you also know that you've only just arrived here recently. That makes sense, after all, the Shangguan family isn't like your Tan family. A distinguished Miss Tan can't even control her own husband."
Tan Qingwu's face turned cold, "Su Man, I was speaking with Grandpa. Is it your turn to interrupt No wonder they say the Su family from Jiangnan is a small, insignificant family that can't get on stage. I really hadn't heard of such a Su family before, but now it seems so. Not even considering that I was talking with Grandpa, just based on status alone, I am still your elder sister-in-law. You are so disrespectful and rude, aren't you" go on like this anymore! If we keep doing this, we're sure to be exposed! The Detective Department is already onto us!""Yeah! Several missions failed in a row! This makes it hard not to suspect that...
