Shao Zhanlin paused as he hung up the phone, pursed his thin lips slightly, and asked again.
The old man didn’t delay any longer and said bluntly:
"It's not the Huo family's thing. Although you said that the child in Qin Yawei's belly is not yours, you can't bear to let others know the inside story. As the rumors outside have become more and more intense in the past few days, more and more people have come to me to inquire...
"
"I know you don't care about other people's eyes, but being silent all the time is not the answer. Find a time, and you still have to explain it well so as not to make people laugh."
What he said was that Shao Hongjun actually believed that his eldest grandson was sensible.
But as an elder, he always has to show his attitude.
As for what Shao Zhanlin would do after hearing this, he wouldn't care too much.
After all, no matter how frustrating the process is, Shao Zhanlin will handle it well in the end.
All he had to do was wait peacefully.
Those old guys in Naihe Group.
Whenever there was any disturbance, they would come to him to check for news, which made him very annoyed.
But he can only bear it.
You can't let your eldest grandson be busy dealing with the group's affairs, and the family home will not be peaceful?
Shao Hongjun sighed lightly. In order to allow his eldest grandson to have time to pursue his wife, his old bones really endured too much.
…
The news that Qin Yawei was pregnant with Shao Zhanlin's child and was eventually abandoned has actually been circulating on the Internet for some time.
It's just that netizens believed in Shao Zhanlin's character before and scoffed at such rumors and dismissed them.
I forgot about it once I heard it and didn't take it to heart at all.
However, no matter how strong the fortress is, it cannot withstand the erosion of wind, frost, rain, and snow.
No matter how unwilling those netizens were to accept it, they could not stop the three of them from becoming a tiger. Over time, all the falsehoods became true.
In recent days, this has caused quite a stir on the Internet.
Otherwise, Shao Hongjun would not have bothered to remind Shao Zhanlin.
Shao Zhanlin's eyes narrowed slightly. He had certainly heard about the rumors, and he knew what the Huo family had planned. They were just using the power of public opinion to put pressure on him.
So as to achieve his goal of marrying Qin Yawei to him.
The only thing he couldn't figure out was...
As the person involved in the pregnancy, Qin Yawei should know very well who the biological father of the child is.
But they allowed the Huo family to spread rumors like this. Was it because they didn't know about the family's little moves, or did they have other plans?
Shao Zhanlin originally wanted to let the bullets fly for a while to see what other tricks they had.
But judging from the current situation, it was obvious that that was all, so he didn't have to hold back his strength and be merciful.
Thinking of this, Shao Zhanlin was silent for a few seconds and responded in a deep voice:
"I understand. I will handle this matter."
The magnetic low voice was both a declaration and a promise, used to comfort the old man's heart.
This will prevent him from having to worry about the younger generation's affairs even at his old age.
Shao Hongjun wasn't too anxious at all, he just called and mentioned it in passing.
But when he heard that his eldest grandson deserved it, he was extremely happy and praised:
"Just be sensible."
After saying this, Shao Hongjun told Shao Zhanlin not to forget to take his great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters back to his old house for dinner on weekends.
After receiving Shao Zhanlin's assurance, he ended the call in a comfortable mood.
As soon as he put down the phone, he saw the butler hurried in from outside. After standing in front of him, he bowed his body and said to him respectfully:
"Master, several shareholders of the group have come over and are waiting outside. They said they have something to discuss with you. Do you want to see them?"
The old housekeeper inquired cautiously. After all, he knew his old man's temperament and was most impatient of such frivolous entertainment.
So whether or not to meet him or not depends on his will.
As expected, Shao Hongjun immediately frowned upon hearing this, remained silent for a while, then waved his hand with a bad expression:
"See you, see you. Let them all go back."
Shao Hongjun said it simply.
There was a bit of impatience in his voice.
The old housekeeper did not leave immediately, but asked worriedly:
"What if they really have something important?"
The old housekeeper was slightly hesitant. He had heard that the news about Queen Qin's pregnancy had already made a big fuss on the Internet.
If this continues, I'm afraid it will affect the group's share price.
So it is no wonder that the shareholders of the group came to give the old man eye drops, hoping that he would come forward to calm the turmoil.
"snort."
He was answered with a clearly audible cold snort. Shao Hongjun blew his beard and glared:
"What important thing can they have? They just took advantage of that old woman from the Huo family and came to me to act as a lobbyist for the Huo family."
Shao Hongjun simply sneered at the old woman's methods.
On the one hand, he poured dirty water on the Shao family mercilessly, but on the other hand, he was worried that things would get too big and the in-laws would become enemies instead of becoming friends.
So I found a bunch of people to act as peacemakers.
But she didn't want to think about it. If the child really belonged to their Shao family, how could he just sit back and watch?
Even if the eldest grandson's legs were broken, he would not be allowed to behave in such a chaotic and irresponsible way.
However, that old woman from the Huo family was very self-centered when she was young. In recent years, she has acted more and more without thinking.
He actually revealed the news directly and let it rot and stink in the Internet public opinion.
Just to force Shao Zhanlin to submit.
It's absolutely disgusting.
The more Shao Hongjun thought about it, the more angry he became, and he muttered angrily:
"You want my eldest grandson to be the receiver for his granddaughter for free? She is so beautiful!"
"This old lady from the Huo family really gets more and more ignorant as she gets older."
Originally, he didn't want the relationship between the two families to get too ugly because of the late Mr. Huo's friendship with him.
If there are conflicts, let them go as much as possible.
But obviously——
Blind tolerance does not lead to mutual respect, but to the old woman's right to push herself to the limit.
If that's the case, then he doesn't need to tolerate the other party anymore.
Shao Hongjun thought in a not-so-good mood.
After listening to his analysis, the old housekeeper gradually realized the purpose of those people outside the door.
As the manager of the Shao family, he naturally would not favor outsiders. After sorting out the grievances, he bowed down and planned to retire and send away those shareholders.
But at this moment, I heard Shao Hongjun say:
"Send them back and tell them that they don't want to follow others' opinions. The things they are concerned about will be solved soon."
At this point, Shao Hongjun paused and then added:
"If they are holding the Shao family's rice bowl but looking at the Huo family's rice bowl, then leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, when I deal with them, don't blame my old man for smashing their food."
Shao Hongjun's voice is light.
There seems to be no waves, but every word is as heavy as a thousand pounds and extremely intimidating.
Even the housekeepers who had been with him for many years straightened their backs and prepared for the attack.
It looks like it can be transformed into an unsheathed sword in his hand at any time, and he can strike wherever he points.
This is the friendship and tacit understanding established over the years by two masters and servants who have a life-long friendship.
