Rebirth: Different Way [(重生) 殊途]

Chapter 84

After separating from Wang Changlin at the cemetery, Shen Xi made a phone call to Lao K on the way home.

When the call was answered, before Shen Xi could say anything, Lao K already said, "Xiao Xi, have you seen the news?"

Shen Xi was stunned, "News? What news?"

"You don't know?" Lao K was very surprised and soon realized that Shen Xi was not calling him for that, so he immediately said with concern, "What's the matter? What happened?"

Shen Xi said softly, "Nothing, I've just met Wang Changlin." At once, Shen Xi told him about Wang Changlin and Han Rou; it was something he could only tell Lao K and no one else.

Lao K was astonished, "It's really him, no wonder!"

Lao K did not clarify no wonder what; he and Shen Xi both knew the answer in their heart. If Han Rou's baby was really Wang Changlin's, then many of the things he had done would make sense. But when Lao K thought of how many times he had investigated Wang Changlin without finding any clues to this matter, he couldn't help but be wary of Wang Changlin.

"Xiao Xi, are you sure you want to transfer the shares in your hands to him, just in case?"

Lao K's concern was palpable, and Shen Xi explained softly, "This matter is not harmful to us. These shares were originally intended to be transferred out, it just happens that this person will be Wang Changlin. What's more, I'm not giving them away for nothing, we can still make a profit with these shares. As for your concern that he will use the shares for other purposes, it doesn't matter to me. All I want is for the Shen family to go bankrupt and be left with nothing. If Wang Changlin is capable of turning Shen Group into Wang Group, what does it have to do with us?"

With Shen Xi's explanation, Lao K also felt that this was indeed the case. Shen Xi's choice was in their best interest at the moment, but Lao K still had some concerns about Wang Changlin. However, as Shen Xi said, even if Wang Changlin had other plans in addition to avenging the Han family, what did it matter? As long as he and Shen Xi had the same goal of dealing with the Shen family, it would be fine.

With this in mind, Lao K did not raise any objection, "Xiao Xi, you decide."

Shen Xi gave an "en", "By the way, what was the news you mentioned just now?"

Back to the topic, Lao K gossiped eagerly, "Zhou Mingmei broke the news about Chu Qianqian's existence and involved Fang Yun in it, and now the newspapers are in an uproar."

The news was not a surprise to Shen Xi as he had already planned to reveal the existence of Chu Qianqian through Zhou Mingmei, "Has there been any mention of the marriage?"

"Don't worry, the news has been released, now it's up to Chu Qianqian." Shen Xi had already made the preparations when he made his plans before. If Zhou Mingmei talked about Chu Qianqian's marriage with Shen Dehan in anger, naturally everything would be fine; but if she didn't say anything, the news would also be released anyway.

Having said that, Lao K couldn't help but add one more sentence, "After this matter is over, what arrangements do you have for Chu Qianqian?"

Shen Xi had already thought about this question, "Send her abroad just like Chang Lei, and then arrange for her to come back if she wants to after the wind dies down in a few years."

"That's good." Lao K agreed. If their plan went well, it was indeed not suitable for Chu Qianqian to stay in China anymore and she would need to go abroad to avoid the limelight for a while.

The contribution of Shen Xi and Lao K in this matter was unknown to outsiders. At this time, everyone's attention was focused on the scandal of Shen Dehan and Chu Qianqian. Compared to the previous scandals of the Shen family, this one was obviously more interesting. Not to mention the huge age difference between Shen Dehan and Chu Qianqian, just the fact that Chu Qianqian's face was identical to Fang Yun was enough to create a huge buzz. When Shen Dehan had kept Zhou Mingliang who looked similar to Fang Yun by his side under the banner of being nostalgic for his dead wife, although it was unfair to Han Rou, many people privately praised him for his love and affection for Fang Yun. But now, Chu Qianqian's existence was a slap in Shen Dehan's face. The love and affection that he had back then now seemed to be nothing more than a lust for young beauty.
