Chapter 324:1 Can Give You Whatever You Want by Today, so Why Should I Wait Until Tomorrow?

After the old lady left, the air in the living room seemed to have dropped to freezing point.

The atmosphere was a little too depressing, making Sang Qianqian let out a soft sigh.

Even she, an outsider, was dumbfounded by the scene just now and was on tenterhooks.

She had heard Old Lady Zhen say that Zhen Zhu was rebellious, but she had finally seen it with her own eyes today.

Her brother had also been rebellious back then, but he didn’t dare to act as recklessly as Zhen Zhu did. This was no longer rebellion, but disobedience.

Every family had their own problems. Outsiders might’ve known how grand and powerful the Zhen family was, but they wouldn’t be aware of the problems within the family.

“I don’t care about what you said to Zhen Yiping,”

…..

Zhen Zhu broke the silence and stared at Shen Hanyu with her smoky eyes. “The Zhen family can’t meddle in my business, so you’d better not meddle in it as well.”

“You seem to have forgotten,” Shen Hanyu said coldly. “When I brought you back, I told you that you can only be the eldest daughter of the Zhen family. Other than that, there’s nothing else for you to choose.”

Zhen Zhu snorted. “What big words. I’m still going to choose another path, so what can you do about it?”

“Since Uncle and Grandmother can’t control you, I’ll do it instead.” Shen Hanyu’s voice was calm. “I’m not them. You can try and see what the consequences are.”

Zhen Zhu rolled her eyes at him and turned to leave.

Shen Hanyu did not ask the bodyguards to stop her. He whispered a few words to Tang Bochuan, who nodded and left.

Old Lady Zhen was in a bad mood because of Zhen Zhu. “I know that Hanyu brought Zhuzhu back with good intentions, but Zhuzhu is really disappointing. Yiping and I have thought of all the ideas we could think of in the past two years. Alas, this child has given up on herself and is beyond saving.”

The old lady stroked the cat on her lap and sighed. “In the future, don’t waste your time on Zhuzhu anymore. You will only make yourself suffer.”

“How did Aunt pa.s.s away?” Shen Hanyu asked.

“When ZhuZhu was 12, her mother went on a trip abroad and the helicopter crashed.”

Old Lady Zhen gave a vague answer and changed the topic, “At that time, Zhuzhu was still very sensible. She was like a little adult and would coax her sister to sleep every night. She also knew how to care for me and her father. She even told me that she would study hard in the future and help her father with the company’s matters so that her father wouldn’t be so tired. Who knew that after her 14th birthday, she would suddenly change into a different person and make a fuss about studying abroad? Alas, she had a big fight with your uncle over the choice of her major, and things got out of hand from there…”

Shen Hanyu fell into deep thought and did not say anything.

Sang Qianqian could not help but ask, “Did anything happen when Zhuzhu was fourteen?”

She used to perform well, but her personality suddenly changed when she was 14. From a doctor’s point of view, it was likely that something had caused this major change within Zhen Zhu’s demeanor.

“There was nothing much that year, but during the first year, your uncle was so busy with the company’s affairs that he eventually overworked himself. I also fell sick, so Yishu brought Zhongjin to live at home and helped take care of me.”

Old Lady Zhen thought for a while. “Zhongjin is a few months younger than Zhuzhu. He’s always been spoiled at home and has a very naughty personality. Zhuzhu didn’t like him very much and got into a few arguments with him. Other than that, there wasn’t anything much.”

The old lady didn’t say what it was about, but it was probably just a conflict between teenagers. It wasn’t enough to make Zhen Zhu change her personality.

As for why Zhen Zhu’s mood had changed so drastically, even Sang Qianqian could not figure it out.

On the way back, Sang Qianqian asked Shen Hanyu, “Are you really going to meddle in Zhen Zhu’s affairs?”

Shen Hanyu smirked. “Well, do you want me to interfere or not?”

Sang Qianqian hesitated for a moment before she answered honestly, “I don’t know.”

That girl’s personality was like a Porcupine, and she was not easy to get along with. Even Zhen Yiping could not do anything about it, so if Shen Hanyu were to interfere, it would probably cause endless trouble.

But looking at her condition, if Shen Hanyu didn’t do anything, her life would be ruined.

“The Zhen family is in too big of a mess. If Zhen Zhu is willing to come back…”

Shen Hanyu turned his head to look at the girl. “I’ll have more time to spend with you.”

The matters behind the Zhen family were too complicated.

Many years ago, Zhen Yiping had trusted people he shouldn’t trust and suffered a great loss. The Zhen family had almost changed hands, so he and the old lady didn’t trust anyone easily now.

At the moment, the only person they could trust was Shen Hanyu.

Although Shen Hanyu had only agreed to help Zhen Yiping, if there was no one in the Zhen family who could take on the responsibility, Zhen Yiping would have to leave this matter to him sooner or later. By then, it would be even more difficult for Shen Hanyu to leave.

This huge industrial empire was like a machine that was always running. Once you were involved, you would be pushed forward involuntarily.

Shen Hanyu did not mind, but Sang Qianqian would definitely have to bear even more of what she was not supposed to.

That would not be the life she wanted.

“You want Zhen Zhu to go back to the Zhen Group?”

Sang Qianqian was taken aback. She felt that Shen Hanyu was being a little too optimistic.

After today’s tense situation, Zhen Yiping’s trust in Zhen Zhu had dropped to the freezing point. It would be difficult for Zhen Zhu to return to the Zhen family in the future, so how could she manage the company’s business?

“Zhen Zhu is not completely hopeless.”

Shen Hanyu pulled Sang Qianqian closer to him and said, “I’ve seen the project proposals she worked on when she was working at the Zhen family’s company. She has a lot of good ideas. If I can train her well and correct her att.i.tude, she might be able to take charge in the future.”

“If you say so, then I’ll be more at ease.”

Sang Qianqian leaned into his arms. Shen Hanyu’s judgment of people was never wrong. “But Zhen Zhu is so stubborn. Will she listen to you?”

Shen Hanyu didn’t think much of it. “She’s just a little girl. How stubborn can she be?”

He had plenty of ways to make her submit.

It was already evening when they returned home.

Shen Hanyu said that he would make dinner for Sang Qianqian, so he really did roll up his sleeves and cook a table full of dishes for her.

Sang Qianqian was leaning on the sofa reading a book. As she read, she fell asleep.

In her daze, she felt someone gently kissing her forehead and saying in a low and gentle voice, “Get up and eat.”

She closed her eyes and hummed in acknowledgment. Instead of getting up, she moved closer to him and found a comfortable position. Then, she leaned against him lazily like a cat and continued to sleep.

Shen Hanyu chuckled. He picked her up and carried her to the dining table. “Look at what I’ve made for you.”

The aroma of food finally woke Sang Qianqian up. She rubbed her eyes and stared at the table full of food in a daze.

Every dish was the name she had casually mentioned when they had gone down the mountain in the afternoon. Some of them were because she really wanted to eat them, while some were just deliberately mentioned to make things difficult for him because he threw her ice cream away.

She didn’t expect him to remember every dish so clearly and even cook them.

However, before she fell asleep, she had clearly told him to only cook a few dishes.

“Didn’t I tell you to just make a few?”

Sang Qianqian’s heart ached for him. “You’ve been busy for so long, aren’t you tired?”

“I’m not tired.”

Shen Hanyu said casually, “I can give you whatever you want by today, so why should I wait until tomorrow?”
