NOVEL NEXT Chapter 570: The Complicated Chen Family
Chen Shiwei looked at Wu Meilian and smiled, but said nothing. Things had reached this point, and Chen Shiwei had no other choice but to bite the bullet and move forward. He would never forget these hatreds, nor the humiliations. Although Chen Yuanzhong was Chen Shiwei's father, for Chen Shiwei, he had long lost any feelings for him.
Including this family, Chen Shiwei had no feelings at all. His feelings for this family were even less than for people like Aunt Wu and Poison Dragon. Otherwise, Chen Shiwei would never have done such an absurd thing. Of course, Wu Meilian herself was also a tramp, but it's not surprising. "At thirty, a woman is like a wolf; at forty, like a tiger." At this wolf-like, tiger-like age, she was unfortunately married to a man who was impotent. Affairs were inevitable, even if she hadn't met Chen Shiwei, she would have hooked up with some other man!
Thinking of this, Chen Shiwei felt a chill in his heart. He didn't know how many men that woman had found outside. The thought of him just having been with a public bus that many men had ridden filled him with sorrow for Elder Chen. As the wife of a once-renowned man like Chen Yuanzhong, she never loved him. What she truly cared about was the stench of money and wealth.
This kind of love is sorrowful, but of course, these things were no longer so important for Elder Chen, as he was already old!
Meanwhile, Lin Mu was in the top-floor CEO office of the tallest building in Wancheng, Yunhai Mansion, facing the beautiful Miss Su. Lin Mu gently took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, exhaled a beautiful smoke ring, and said loudly,
"Haha, Miss Su, let me tell you some good news. That kid Chen Shiwei is scared and has run back to his father. Haha, who would have thought Chen Shiwei would have his day? Over the past few days, the industries under Chen Shiwei have shrunk dramatically. If things continue at this rate, Chen Shiwei will be finished soon!"
Lin Mu said, throwing away the cigarette butt, and casually grabbed a slice of watermelon, stuffing it into his mouth and chewing away.
"Chen Shiwei might not be finished so quickly. His old man is there; he won't be finished that fast. His old man's strength should not be underestimated, but from what I understand, Chen Shiwei seems to have some conflict with his father, Chen Yuanzhong!" Sophie said.
"A conflict? What kind of conflict?" Lin Mu asked, puzzled.
"These are things from years ago, I'm not sure, but I've heard my grandfather talk about it. Back then, Chen Yuanzhong was also a significant figure in Wancheng. Years ago, he and my grandfather each had their areas in Wancheng. I've heard my grandfather say that it seemed like Chen Shiwei's mother was forced to death by Chen Yuanzhong, and it was because of another woman!" Sophie said.
"Oh? So, you mean Chen Yuanzhong's current wife isn't Chen Shiwei's biological mother?" Lin Mu was truly unclear about the Chen Family's matters.
"Of course, Chen Yuanzhong's current wife, Wu Meilian, is only in her thirties. Chen Shiwei is almost thirty. How could she be his biological mother?!"
"Wow, what was the situation back then? Would Chen Yuanzhong really force his wife to death for another woman?" Lin Mu asked in disbelief.
Sophie rolled her eyes at Lin Mu, "Aren't all you men dogs, disregarding everything when you see a pretty woman? At that time, Wu Meilian was a mistress, beautiful as a flower, using her beauty to seduce Chen Yuanzhong. But in the end, she was discovered by Chen Shiwei's mother. Wu Meilian's intervention caused conflicts in the family, and eventually, Chen Yuanzhong wanted to take Wu Meilian as a second wife. Chen Shiwei's mother didn't agree and threatened with death, but for Chen Yuanzhong, it was useless. In the end, Chen Shiwei's mother jumped off a building in anger!"
"Wow, mistresses are the worst!"
"Hmph, aren't you men all the same, thinking only with your lower half!" Sophie rolled her eyes again at Lin Mu.
"Uh... you can't make blanket statements. There's an unprecedented good man sitting right in front of you!" Lin Mu said, patting his chest.
"As if!"
"And then what happened?" Lin Mu asked again.
LIN Mu had to understand more about Chen Shiwei's story. Knowing his character made it easier to deal with him. Maybe he could even find a breakthrough!
"What you see now is the result. As far as I know, ever since Chen Shiwei left the Chen Family, he hasn't stepped foot into it for probably over a decade now. Although he stays in contact with Chen Yuanzhong, it's only through phone calls!" Sophie said.
"Haha, who would've thought Chen Shiwei had such a story!" Lin Mu laughed.
"Currently, all of Chen Shiwei's power is mostly due to his own efforts. Although there's some help from Chen Yuanzhong, it can't be separated from Chen Shiwei's hard work. Who knew that after all this hard work, he'd run into a freak like you!" Sophie said, giving Lin Mu a glance.
"Heh, it was he who provoked me first. My principle is, if people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If someone dares to provoke me, I will definitely destroy them!" Lin Mu grinned.
"After all these years, and now Chen Shiwei returns to the Chen Family, it seems you've pushed him into a corner!" Sophie said.
Lin Mu nodded, "That's true. From what I know about Chen Shiwei, if it's like you said, Chen Shiwei wouldn't return to the Chen Family unless it's a last resort."
"Don't underestimate Chen Yuanzhong. He's an old-timer who has remained undefeated all these years with his skills!" Sophie said.
"Yes, that's true, but I'm currently interested in whether this old hatred will be ignited with Chen Shiwei's return to the Chen Family, and his attitude towards Wu Meilian. When Chen Shiwei left the Chen Family, it was definitely with a grudge. Now that he's back, there might be some interesting developments!" Lin Mu grinned.
"Are you suggesting Chen Shiwei might act against his father, Chen Yuanzhong?" Sophie asked.
"I'm not sure, it's just a guess. Chen Shiwei is someone adept at patience. Although he hasn't done anything to the Chen Family over these years, who knows what's in his mind? Could it be he's always been holding this grudge? Given the situation now, he might act against Chen Yuanzhong or Wu Meilian!" Lin Mu analyzed.
"Acting against Wu Meilian is possible, since she is the direct cause. But against Chen Yuanzhong, that's unlikely, right? After all, Chen Yuanzhong is his biological father!" Sophie questioned.
"Haha, that's what I don't understand. No matter what, he is Chen Shiwei's father. Acting against him seems unlikely, but anything is possible!" Lin Mu said meaningfully.
