Chapter 138: Shen Wansan (Part one)

It was Xu Chengs first time going to Shen Yaos place. Her place was at one of the more luxurious neighborhoods of villas in the city. He also hadnt seen Shen Yaos father before, but the boss man was clearly no simple guy, since not even West Gate dared to offend the Shen Family.

Shen Yaos sports car arrived at the door. The maid opened the electronic door, and she was overjoyed upon seeing Shen Yao. Young Madam, you are back! Ah, I have to go inform the master!

No need, Shen Yao faintly said, but the maid still went in and called Boss Shen.

The car was parked in the garage along with a dozen other famous cars, all of which were the limited edition cars that her father bought for her every birthday. However, ever since Shen Yaos big brother died from a tragic accident, she also left this home. She hadnt driven those cars for a while now.

Shen Yao brought Xu Cheng into the main hall. The entire villa was extremely big, with a private garden as well as an indoor pool. After coming in, Xu Cheng noticed Shen Yao looking around, so he asked curiously, When was the last time you came back? You dont seem to recognize your own house anymore.

Ever since I got a career that could support myself, I rarely came back. Shen Yao sighed, and then she looked at the nanny at home and said, Aunty Liu, can you prepare two guest rooms for my friends? They will be staying here for the next few days.

Aunty Liu nodded and went upstairs.

You should sit down first, I will go and take a shower first. Shen Yao smiled at Xu Cheng and then went upstairs to the bedroom that she hadnt returned to for years.

The maid poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xu Cheng. Xu Cheng was pretty bored as he sat on the sofa in the living room. Not long after, a Maybach came into the gate, and before the driver that got out could get to open the door for his boss, a middle-aged man with a sizeable belly ran straight in.

Daughter!

However, he didnt get to see Shen Yao right after coming in, instead seeing Xu Cheng sitting on the sofa. Then, a sense of vigilance immediately rose in his heart. It was the feeling that his baby daughter was about to be stolen by someone.

He narrowed his eyes and checked Xu Cheng out, and Xu Cheng was also checking him out.

Shen Yaos dad didnt rush to talk to Xu Cheng first but directly asked the maid, This is?

Xu Cheng didnt wait for the maid to answer and said, Im Shen Yaos friend.

Friend? Boss Shens face immediately turned dark as he asked, Normal friend or

Normal friend, Xu Cheng replied.

Oh really? Boss Shen snorted. My daughter hadnt brought any men back home ever, are you really just a normal friend to her?

Xu Cheng nodded.

Whats your name? Boss Shen asked.

Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng replied, neither haughty nor humble.

Boss Shen nodded, and then he immediately asked the maid, Wheres my daughter?

She went to take a shower.

Boss Shen sighed and sat down onto the sofa. He still couldnt help but check Xu Cheng out more. After awhile, he seemed to mumble to himself, Looks like my daughters still mad at me. First time back after so many years, and she just directly brought a guy home.

Speaking of this, he suddenly looked up, his sharp eyes interrogating Xu Cheng as he directly asked, Brat, are you thinking about courting my daughter?

Xu Cheng didnt reply right away. He raised his tea cup and took his time to take a sip. Only after slowly savouring it did he faintly look back at Boss Shen and ask, Mr. Shen, what makes you say that?

Chapter 138: Shen Wansan (Part two)

Right now, who doesnt know that I only have my baby daughter left after my eldest son died? In the future, she will for sure be the heir to all of my wealth. Just that alone, isnt it already tempting enough for you to court my daughter? Boss Shen snorted.

Xu Cheng faintly smiled. He placed his cup down, looked at Boss Shen, and said, I can understand your concern about your daughter getting tricked, and I can understand that you suspect other people are getting closer to your daughter with ulterior motives. But, I also realized why Shen Yao doesnt have many male friends. Mr. Shen, have you thought that you being so wary of the people around her will make her feel like a flower in a greenhouse? Do you know that she also wants to go and see the outside world?

Boss Shen: What qualification do you have to dare to talk to me like this? Are you teaching me how to raise my own daughter?

Xu Cheng politely smiled. I just wanted to remind you as a friend of hers.

Brat, theres no such thing as a pure friendship between men and women. I dont care what your motive is behind getting closer to my daughter, but you should stop while you can. Dont wait until I do something crazy to protect my daughter.

Shen Wansan! Now I know why you always have no real friends. At this moment, standing by the stairs, Shen Yao had already changed into a dress.

Xu Cheng was just taking another sip when he directly sprayed out the tea upon hearing the Shen Wansan name. (TL note: Wansans direct translation is ten thousand three.)

Shen Wansan saw his baby daughters darkened face and immediately smiled awkwardly as he tried to suck up to his daughter, My baby girl, you are finally willing to come back to see me now?

Shen Yao rolled her eyes at him and snorted. Then, she walked over and introduced him to Xu Cheng, This is my dad, Shen Wansan.

Then, she also introduced Xu Cheng to her dad, This is my friend, Xu Cheng. I also have a good female friend that will also move in with us. Shen Wansan, if my friends are not comfortable living here for the next few days, then I really am not coming back to this home anymore.

Shen Wansan immediately replied, Of course! They will definitely be comfortable. If anyone dares to not please our guests, then I will fire them!

Then, he looked around at the dozen of maids and said, Got it?

Yes, Master, the dozen maids all bowed and replied.

Shen Yao then looked at Xu Cheng and said, My dad can be quite troublesome, I hope you can understand.

Xu Cheng awkwardly laughed and said, Its all good, Uncle Shens just doing his job as a father. But, is Uncle Shen really called Shen Wansan?

Shen Yao looked at her dad from the corner of her eyes and said, Thats the new name he adopted after going to a fortune teller. He said something along the lines of being able to become very wealthy with those numbers in his name.

Speaking of this, Shen Yao scornfully squeezed out a bitter smile. So, he made a lot of money, but he lost his beloved daughter and son. In the end, this house is so big for no purpose, and its just ice cold.

A hint of guilt flashed past Shen Wansans face. Yaoyao

Whatever, Im not going to bring up the past. Lets go, I will show you your room. Shen Yao didnt seem to want to spend more time with his dad, so she dragged Xu Cheng upstairs.

Halfway up, she said to Aunty Liu, My friend Ran Jing will come in a bit, you can directly take her upstairs.

Aunty Liu nodded.

After Xu Cheng and Shen Yao went up, Shen Wansan said to the driver, Go and check the background of the brat that came with my daughter. How come you guys didnt tell me when a strange man appeared in her life?

The driver awkwardly replied, Boss, didnt you tell us to stop monitoring her since you were scared of Young Madam getting angry? We were also afraid that Young Madam wouldnt come home again if she gets angry, so we stopped looking after her
