Chapter 65: Brother Jin’s Wife
A few days later, when Grandpa Shen returned to Dragon City from S City, he officially invited Jing Xun to visit the Shen family.
Two days later, it would be Grandpa Shen’s birthday, and they would also… announce the date of marriage. They went to Shen’s house in advance to meet Shen Yijin’s other family members.
Jing Xun had no objection.
The last time he went to see Grandpa Shen in S City, he still felt nervous. But visiting the Shen family mansion, Jing Xun felt nothing.
The main reason was that he had already met Grandpa Shen, and he had also seen how amiable the other party was, so he no longer felt nervous and scared.
As for the rest of the Shen family, sir never mentioned them, and Jing Xun simply didn’t think about it so much.
He defaulted going back to Shen’s house to see Grandpa Shen, and at most he would see Shen Bohan’s mother again, that was, Shen Yijin’s stepmother.
But after arriving at the Shen family, Jing Xun realized what “big household” meant.
The Shen family’s main residence was located on the edge of the fourth ring​ road. It was not quite a suburb, but covered an area of no less than several thousand square meters.
Usually when you walked by and looked inside the fence, you could only see a green meadow surrounded by a large area of green trees. People who didn’t know might think it was a small park.
However, after walking to the main entrance, driving in and turning two corners, you could see a building comparable to a white castle, located right in the middle of the lawn.
The car was parked in front of the magnificently decorated retro building, and naturally there were housekeepers and servants who came to open the door and welcome them into the house.
When walking into the open door, you would once again be frightened by the prosperity inside.
This “castle” appeared to have at least three floors. The overall architecture design was Western-style, but the decoration and furnishings incorporated many mysterious and charming oriental elements.
It should have been specially designed by a professional. The entire villa was gorgeous but not extravagant, low-key and luxurious, which was in line with the temperament of the two richest men in the Shen family.
It was the first time he saw such a simple but stylish villa. After entering the door, Jing Xun inevitably looked around a few more times.
At this time, on the wide spiral staircase, a middle-aged man happened to come down from the upper floor.
Seeing them appearing at the door, the man speeded up his steps and shouted rather eagerly: “Ah Jin, you’re back.”
This man was not as tall as Shen Yijin, but his appearance was somewhat similar to Shen Yijin.
Jing Xun heard sir greet him: “Second uncle.”
The person who was called Second uncle greeted him enthusiastically: “You haven’t been home for a while.”
When he came closer, and saw Jing Xun, he was taken aback: “…this is Xiao Xun, right?”
A moment of amazement flashed in the man’s measuring gaze. After it passed, he quickly said enthusiastically: “The old man told me about you as soon as he came back. This morning he kept saying again and again that Ah Jin is bringing you back, and he was in a much better mood!”
Jing Xun smiled and greeted him, also calling out second uncle.
Shen Yijin rarely mentioned the people and affairs of his family. He only told him that he didn’t need to worry about anything on the way there, and just behave like he usually did at normal time.
So Jing Xun greeted this second uncle politely, as he usually did with others.
This smiling tiger-like second uncle was also a part of the scum gong’s small group in the original book—— he was dissatisfied with the fact that Shen Yijin was put in power by old man Shen once he returned to the country and took charge of most of the Shen family’s industries. He made many small movements behind the scenes to harm Shen Yijin.
But the second uncle himself was an extravagant and licentious dandy. It was not that old man Shen didn’t give him a chance, but unfortunately, in the past ten years, apart from spending public funds to eat, drink , and squander, he hadn’t done anything decent except fighting with his own brothers.
That’s right, perhaps all the wealthy and influential families were facing the same problem, that is, brothers fighting each other.
Before Shen Yijin came back, the second uncle and Shen Yijin’s father had a fight for the Shen family’s business.
Then Shen Yijin’s father had an accident and became a vegetable. His second uncle, who had no rivals in the Shen’s family, went on a rampage for a while.
That was until Shen Yijin came back from abroad.
Since the senior who used to tell Jing Xun stories was sir’s big fan, so in this section of the Shen family storm, he unconsciously said a lot when telling stories——
It was said that before sir returned to the Shen family, almost everyone forgot that the Shen family had such a grandson.
After learning that the family property he had been struggling with and yearning for a few years was suddenly passed over to the third generation by the old man… The second uncle naturally couldn’t stand this grievance, and loathed to part with those family property.
In the beginning, he didn’t put Shen Yijin in his eyes. He had competed with Shen Yijin, but no matter which industry under the Shen family’s banner, he didn’t know as much as Shen Yijin. In terms of talents and comprehension, he couldn’t be compared, and was even less comparable in terms of employing people.
——During the period of rampage before, the second uncle had offended quite a few people.
He also thought about using some small means to pull this nephew of his into the water.
But every time, Shen Yijin knew and resolved it in advance. In the end, there wasn’t even a splash.
On the contrary, sir had been doing well in Dragon City in the past two years. He not only took over 80% of the Shen family business, but also transferred several companies he opened abroad back to the country.
Among them, Yiwei Technology, the most famous and most prestigious, had also become the leader of the domestic emerging technology industry…
The second uncle who was “suppressed” in succession had to learn to hibernate.
On the surface, he was a smiling tiger. He didn’t do anything proper besides stirring up troubles, so he looked no different from before.
Actually, he had not given up his position as the future head of the Shen family.
This appeared to be the reason why the second uncle would cooperate with Shen Bohan and his mother, whom he once looked down upon.
This previous situation was placed in the original work, mainly to add an opportunity for the scum gong to become more powerful.
It was said that in the later stage of the commercial war, several people were also splashing a few waves, but at that time Shen Yijin didn’t take it seriously.
By the time the final villain turned black, the second uncle’s downfall was also tragic and bleak…
The current plot was nowhere near there.
But Jing Xun, who knew the plot, felt that if he prevented the second uncle from forming an alliance with Shen Bohan, perhaps it could indirectly affect the direction of the plot, and prevent sir from blackening…
But how to stop it?
Sir was not close to the second uncle.
Even if Shen Yijin hadn’t said it, Jing Xun knew that during the two years he was in power in the Shen family, what the second uncle had done behind his back was more like a stumbling block and not fair competition.
This couldn’t be blamed on sir.
Shen Yijin and his second uncle seemed harmonious on the surface. Out of the mentality of protecting his shortcomings, Jing Xun was not very warm except for his politeness.
After saying a few words with the second uncle, he followed Shen Yijin upstairs to see Grandpa Shen first.
He hadn’t seen him for a few days, but Grandpa Shen was as vigorous as ever.
Although he changed into a formal and majestic Tang suit, and sitting in the study with the head of the family demeanor, the kindness in the eyes of the old man could not be hidden.
This made Jing Xun feel warm.
“Wait a little while and eat first, after that let Ah Jin take you around for a stroll.” Grandpa Shen said to Jing Xun, “If there’s no urgent matter, stay here with grandpa tonight.”
When he said this, of course Jing Xun could not refuse.
Immediately after that, Shen Yijin talked about work with his grandpa again.
It was just that the topic this time was specifically about Jing Xun’s upcoming AI laboratory.
“Good.” After hearing Shen Yijin’s words, Grandpa Shen looked very happy.
Although he didn’t understand much about science and technology, he also knew that intelligent AI is the core competitiveness of the future. This was what he had always encouraged Shen Yijin to do.
As for Jing Xun’s ability, he also knew it from the beginning.
“Fortunately, there is Xiao Xun who can help Ah Jin. Grandpa feels very relieved.” Old man Shen said: “There is only Ah Jin in this family who can handle business matters, but Grandpa is sometimes afraid of exhausting him. Now that Xiao Xun is here, Grandpa is at ease.”
“……”
Although it was not obvious, Jing Xun still heard a trace of vicissitude and distress in the other party’s tone.
He really loved Shen Yijin dearly.
Jing Xun couldn’t help but glance at sir, and said to the old man: “I will always be there…with him. Grandpa, don’t worry.”
Anyone could feel the sincerity inside his words.
Perhaps he rarely saw such a simple and straightforward youth, Grandpa Shen couldn’t help being amused.
The trio chatted for a while, and when it was almost time for dinner, Grandpa Shen asked them to go downstairs first to let Jing Xun meet the rest of the family.
So Jing Xun, who returned to the first floor, met the second uncle’s wife, the second uncle’s sons and daughters, and several of Shen Yijin’s uncles, and their children and grandchildren.
There were a lot of people.
The parents of these uncles were from the same generation as grandpa Shen, and they ventured into the market together.
It was just that most of these people had passed away. Some families moved out very early, but were called back today. Some had always lived in the Shen family mansion, including their children and grandchildren.
Anyway, back on the first floor, seeing those people in the living room, Jing Xun was still deeply surprised by the “size” of the Shen family.
…If he didn’t have a good memory, he might not be able to recognize everyone after two days.
Not to mention, the relationship between these people was even more complicated.
Who belonged to which small group, which group had the same goal, therefore they automatically formed an alliance…
Some could be seen, some could not.
It may also be for this reason that old man Shen would rather go to S City to guard a holiday resort to spend his old age, rather than staying at home.
But no matter what, what to say or not to say, during the time when old man Shen hadn’t come down and Shen Yijin was bringing Jing Xun downstairs, everyone’s eyes and topics were almost all around him.
——Sir’s achievements over the past two years alone were enough to shock everyone here.
Maybe some people were still not convinced, but they must be polite and courteous on the surface. Seeing Shen Yijin show great concern toward someone for the first time, they didn’t dare to show any dissatisfaction.
Jing Xun, who was suddenly taken home by Shen Yijin, became the object of more people’s attention and scrutiny.
After all, today was a family dinner. Logically speaking, even if it were Ah Jin, he shouldn’t have brought an outsider back.
After all, before this, Shen Yijin had never brought anyone back.
Besides, whether it was purely from the appearance of Jing Xun, or from the position where he and Shen Yijin were sitting next to each other on the same sofa, it meant that this young man was not ordinary.
It is too unusual!
Although they were curious in their hearts, most people were just spectators, talking about irrelevant topics, and occasionally asked for Shen Yijin’s opinions. They did not dare to ask him who the handsome young man he brought back was.
Only those who were bold, outgoing and talkative, or who didn’t know what fear was, would dare to ask Shen Yijin about Jing Xun’s identity.
For example, a five-year-old daughter of his uncle’s family dared to come over and grab Shen Yijin’s legs, asking him crisply, “Brother Jin, who is this beautiful brother?”
The little girl with pigtail braids raised her neck, her eyes full of childlike innocence.
Shen Yijin, whose knee was grasped, maintained his original posture without moving.
Not only that, he also lowered his eyes to look at her, and answered seriously: “This beautiful brother is brother Jin’s lover.”
“……”
There was a sound of breathless gasping everywhere, and in a moment of silence, only the little girl’s voice still remained clear: “What does lover mean ah?”
Shen Yijin replied: “It’s a lifelong partner.”
“Huh?” The little girl tilted her head, and her braid on one side almost tilted into the sky. Obviously, she didn’t understand it.
The others were in deep shock. Even the family and the nanny who looked after the little girl forgot to come forward and take her away.
At this time, Shen Yijin glanced at Jing Xun.
Immediately, his eyelids drooped, and a textured voice sounded, with an untraceable laugh: “It means Brother Jin’s wife.”
Jing Xun: “……”
Fortunately, the little girl didn’t ask what wife meant.
