novelIf You Really Feel Sorry for Him, Why Don't You Take Care of it?

"This is also your home. You can arrange it yourself. You don't need to ask me." The old man waved his hand."I'd also like to meet Lawyer Shen and thank him properly. Ask Yufei to arrange dinner and have Eighth Brother and Qiqi join us."
"Okay." Sheng Bowen nodded.
"Hurry up and go wash up. Get rid of the bad luck on your body."
"Then, Grandpa, I'll go wash up first..." Shen Bowen dragged Ren Yufei back to their room.
"I'll go prepare some clothes for you to change into. You should go in quickly." Ren Yufei quickly went to the wardrobe and took out his shirt, pants, and clothes.
Sheng Bowen hugged Ren Yufei from behind and put his chin on her shoulder."I'm sorry, Yufei."
"What's there to be sorry about? It's not your fault." Ren Yufei couldn't help but soften her tone as she felt his hug.
"It's because of my weakness that I've become a target for others time and again. I've brought endless trouble to the Sheng family and even to Eighth Brother." Sheng Bowen's voice was hoarse. One could tell how much he had gone through in the detention center these past few days."I won't do it again in the future."
"What are you talking about? Go take a shower..." Ren Yufei turned around and gave him the clothes.
"But I miss you." Sheng Bowen refused to let go and pulled Ren Yufei into the bathroom."Let me hold you. Only then will I feel at ease."
Ren Yufei didn't know what had happened to him in the center or how upset he was. Therefore, she could only take off her clothes and use her body to warm her husband and comfort him.
"I'm here, we're all here. No matter what you become, I'll always be by your side. I won't leave You."
Sheng Bowen's eyes reddened, but he did not let Ren Yufei see them. He turned around and just hugged and kissed her passionately.
After not seeing her for several days, his body and mind had missed her so.
And so, in that bathroom, Sheng Bowen relieved the pain of missing her. He wanted Ren Yufei countless times until she passed out.
Then, Sheng Bowen carried her to bed and changed into a fresh set of clothes. He went out and called Sheng Xiao."Lawyer Shen is coming to our house for dinner tonight. Grandpa wants you and Xiao Qi to come over as well."
"You invited him?" Sheng Xiao asked.
"Since they treat me as a target, how could they be so kind as to let me out? So, why don't I take the initiative and find out Shen Yu's flaws earlier?" Sheng Bowen replied calmly."Eighth Brother, you also know that he treats me like a gullible little mouse. Since Huang Yao is about to be merged with Zhongteng, let me do something for myself. Let me continue to be that mouse that's at the mercy of others."
"Although what you said makes sense, you don't need to get involved in this muddy water anymore. Not for Huang Yao."
"I'm already in the muddy water."
"What happened in the past few days?" Sheng Xiao asked Sheng Bowen because he could clearly feel that Sheng Bowen's mentality had changed.
"Nothing..." Sheng Bowen said."I just don't want to continue being Sheng Kai's weapon as a means to take revenge on the Sheng family."
"You can try, but don't act rashly."
"Okay, see you tonight."
After the two hung up, Sheng Xiao immediately looked at Xu Che beside him."Go and find out what happened to Third Brother in the detention center for the past few days."
No matter how kind a person was, after being bullied for a long time, he would know how to fight back.
Did Sheng Kai really want his life that badly?
..
At night, in the luxurious living room of the Sheng family's home.
As there were important guests arriving and them wanting to celebrate Sheng Bowen's return home, the whole family sat around a long dining table.
Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi were among them.
"It's all thanks to Lawyer Shen's help that I was able to get out so smoothly this time. Let me toast to you." On Sheng Bowen's left was Ren Yufei, and on his right was Shen Yu, arranged to show as if it was convenient for him to take care of his benefactor.
"I was hired by CEO Sheng at his expense. This is all part of my duty. Third Young Master, you really don't have to be so polite." Shen Yu's behavior was completely different from when he was with Sheng Kai. In front of the Sheng family, he was refined and polite.
"Lawyer Shen, you're so young but you're already so capable. This old man is really envious of you." As Old Master Sheng spoke, he pointed at the Sheng brothers around the table and said, "All of you are useless. You only know how to anger me."
"Old Master Sheng, you flatter me."
"Since you're here, don't be shy. If you have anything you want to eat, just tell this old man."
The atmosphere...
Seemed very relaxed.
Everyone in the Sheng family really treated him like a benefactor. However, it was not surprising that no one else in the Sheng family knew about him. The main thing was how Sheng Xiao viewed him.
"The old man seems to like you very much. When you have time, feel free to come visit."
Shen Yu carefully observed every move and expression of Sheng Xiao's, but he could not find any flaw or clue that hinted at his distrust toward him.
"Since Old Master Sheng is so kind, I won't be disrespectful." After Shen Yu said that, he picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Sheng Bowen's."Don't worry, I'll definitely do my best in this lawsuit."
"Grandpa, since I'm handing Huang Yao to Eighth Brother, it won't be good for me to make an appearance. So, I don't want to go back to Huang Yao for the time being. Is that okay?"
"Do whatever you want." The old man did not object.
After Sheng Bowen heard this, he immediately smiled and turned to Shen Yu."Shall we play golf tomorrow? It's been a long time since I've gone out with my friends."
"Sure thing."
Shen Yu readily agreed.
By getting close to Sheng Bowen quickly, he could gain his trust as soon as possible. Then, the second step of the plan would be even easier to implement.
However, Mu Qiqi did not say anything throughout dinner, which made the old man feel strange.
"Xiao Qi, you're always chattering. What's wrong today?"
"You lousy old man. You set Third Brother free and threw Xiao Xiao to the fire again. How can I be happy? The shareholders of Huang Yao always fail to do their jobs and ruin things, yet they're good at spouting nonsense. I'm annoyed just by looking at them." Mu Qiqi sounded displeased.
"If you really feel sorry for him, why don't you take care of it?"
"Forget it..." Mu Qiqi immediately admitted defeat."Let him do it."
"With Eighth Brother in charge, Sheng Kai won't be able to cause any more trouble. I'll be able to go fishing with your grandfather in peace..."
Even Sheng Kai's matters could be taken care of in front of him. From the looks of it, the Sheng family did not have their guard up against him at all.
This way, the game would be fun.
..
Late at night, Shen Yu returned to his villa from the Sheng family's home. He saw Sheng Kai sitting on the sofa without a sound.
"What's wrong? Where's the woman you prepared for me?"
"You went to the Sheng family for dinner?" Sheng Kai felt very uncomfortable."Whose side are you on?"
