Zheng Ling was a smart person. Shen Yin only hinted that she wanted to buy some well-known brands, and she immediately understood. She brought Shen Yin to a few luxury shops and bought a lot of clothes and jewelry. Zheng Ling only stopped when Shen Yin was so tired that she was panting and could not walk anymore. Then she brought Shen Yin upstairs to find a hotpot restaurant for dinner.

When Lian Jing called, Shen Yin was cooking beef with Zheng Ling.

“When are you coming home?” Lian Jing narrowed his eyes and looked at his son, who had gone home to take a shower and change his clothes. He was talking to Shen Yin on the phone with one hand and grabbing his son’s shoulder with the other.

It was a little noisy on Shen Yin’s end, so she could not hear the voice on the other end of the line clearly. After listening carefully, she realized what he was asking and shouted, “I’ll go back after dinner. You and Grandpa can eat first. You don’t have to wait for me.”

Lian Jing closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His tone was filled with anger and grievance. “Alright, you’d better not come back!”

With that, he hung up the phone and glared at his son angrily. He said angrily,

“How can you refuse to go home every day?”

“Daddy.” Shen Nian helplessly pushed away his hand that was gripping him more and more tightly. He rubbed his shoulder that was hurting and complained, “You can’t vent your anger on me just because Mommy isn’t back.”

Lian Jing snorted and looked at the bag in his hand. He frowned and asked,

“What is this?”

“It’s a tonic for Cheng Mu. I asked Grandpa Butler for it.” Shen Nian looked at Butler Chen confidently.

Chen Fa quickly braced himself and nodded. “Yes, Young Master is very good at taking care of invalids. President Lian has taught him well.”

Lian Jing did not say anything. He was not a petty person and would not care about some nutritional supplements. However, he used to be the most important person in the family, and now he was the only one who had nothing to do. For a moment, he felt a little disappointed and waved his hand in frustration. “Go ahead. Remember to keep a distance from the Cheng family’s girl. You know what I mean.”

“Okay.” Shen Nian nodded slightly. He knew very well how big the conflict between his biological father and the Cheng family was. Naturally, he would not provoke Lian Jing. When Cheng Mu was discharged from the hospital, Shen Nian planned to go back to ignoring her and never interacting with her again.

Lian Jing watched his son leave. His gloomy gaze landed on the watch on his wrist. Just as he was about to return to the study to continue dealing with documents, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs.

Old Master Lian hobbled down the stairs with his walking stick.

Lian Jing frowned and stood up to help him up. There was a hint of reproach in his tone. “Grandpa, why didn’t you take the elevator down?”

“I want to exercise more. It’s also good for my body. If I keep lying down, I won’t have any strength left.” Old Master Lian panted as he was helped to the sofa and sat down. Butler Chen hurriedly came over to pour tea for the two of them.

Old Master Lian took a sip and heaved a sigh of relief. He placed the document bag on the coffee table. “Your Auntie and Uncle came to visit me yesterday and gave me this. You’ll understand after taking a look.”

Lian Jing frowned and did not look at the documents. Instead, he looked up at Chen Fa calmly. “Uncle Chen, did the two of them meet Shen Yin when they came?

“Uh.” Chen Fa paused for a moment, his eyes subconsciously asking for the Old Master’s opinion. Seeing the other party’s calm expression, he immediately understood that Old Master Lian was not going to get involved. He hurriedly nodded respectfully and said, “They saw her. But only Eldest Miss, Young Master and Miss Shen were alone in the living room. Eldest Miss had sent all the servants away on some pretext. At that time, I was in Old Master’s room, so I didn’t hear what they said.’

“Ok.” Lian Jing had a rough idea of what was going on. He then reached out to pick up the document. After reading the first page, he threw it on the ground angrily. “They’ve gone too far.”

Chen Fa hurriedly bent down to pick up the documents and placed them back on the table. He smiled and tried to smooth things over. “Eldest Miss has President Lian’s best interests at heart. If President Lian doesn’t like it, just ignore it.”

“She’s not that kind.” Lian Jing snorted coldly, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.

If Lian’e knew the boundaries, their relationship would not have become so fraught over the years.

Lian Jing was a lone wolf. Ever since he took over the Lian family’s business, he had never allowed anyone to criticize him. Even Old Master Lian could only give him a few tactful words of advice, what more Lian’e, who had always coveted his assets.

It was a pity that she did not understand that they each needed their own space. She insisted on stirring the pot and make things difficult for him whenever she could. He could overlook anything else, but this time, she had targeted Shen Yin. He could not be blamed for acting ruthlessly.

Of course Old Master Lian grasped Lian Jing’s meaning. He had personally groomed this grandson. No one understood Lian Jing’s personality and temperament better than him.

Although this matter struck Lian Jing’s nerve, for the sake of the Lian family, he had to ask, “Lian Jing, have you really decided to marry Shen Yin?”
