Mrs. Lu, Mr. Lu will come back and spend the night tonight.

If she really wanted to understand, he should give her a clear answer.

When Shen Li asked this, Shen Xingchen looked up at him and said, "Of course I have figured it out. Of course I really want to be with you."

Ever since she was old enough to understand, she has never thought of anyone other than Shen Li.

Shen Li is by her side in all her life plans.

Unless he doesn't want her.

Shen Xingchen made a firm choice. Shen Li smiled and rubbed her hair: "Are you stupid?"

Although he knew her answer and how she would respond, Shen Li was still moved.

He also didn't expect that his feelings would end up with Shen Xingchen.

The night is very quiet.

The two hugged each other tightly for a long time. Shen Li kissed her face and said, "Let's go to sleep."

"I'll sleep at my uncle's place."

"Row."

Shen Li agreed.

It seems that this is also a habit of theirs.

Holding Shen Xingchen in his arms, Shen Xingchen seemed very tired tonight. She did not make any trouble, so Shen Li just held her quietly.

That night, he thought a lot, all about their future and their future.

In the next two days, the old man and the old lady lived here, and Shen Li and his family came back early, so Shen Li also went home on time.

That night, after the family finished dinner in the restaurant, when Shen Li went upstairs to rest, Shen Mingchuan suddenly called him: "Shen Li, come to the study for a moment."

Listening to his father's words, Shen Li glanced over there indifferently, and finally went into the study with him.

Before the father and son opened their mouths to speak, Shen Li had probably guessed what was going on.

As expected, when he closed the door and pulled out the chair outside the desk and sat down, Shen Mingchuan did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "What's going on between you and Xingchen? What are you going to do?"

Shen Mingchuan did not give Shen Li any orders immediately. He just asked for Shen Li's opinion first.

Shen Li remained calm in response to Shen Mingchuan's question.

Because everything was as expected.

He said: "I want to be with Xingchen. I will handle it well. It shouldn't have a big impact."

Even though his father didn't explain the whole matter, Shen Li knew it was about this, so he answered straightforwardly.

However, as soon as Shen Li finished speaking, Shen Mingchuan's expression changed instantly and he became angry.

“Won’t it have a big impact?”

"How many people outside are staring at the Shen family and at you and Beicheng? Don't you know it in your heart? Do you think that you and Xingchen are just a matter between the two of you? It's still the business of the entire Shen family and the Shen Group."

"You have taken care of Xingchen for more than ten years, and Xingchen has called you uncle for more than ten years. Who in and out of the circle doesn't know this?"

"You suddenly want to be with Xingchen and marry her. How do you want the media and others to comment on this? What era is this? Is our Shen family still raising child brides?"

"Even if you don't care about your own face and reputation, and don't care about the criticisms of others, shouldn't you at least consider the company's stock, consider the meals of so many people in the company, and consider the face of me and your mother?"

"Are you going to give us some face?"

It's not that I want to break them up forcibly, it's just that the situation between him and Xingchen is really difficult to handle, and the media hype is very strong now.

A single word or a little rumor can cause big changes in the stock market.

Does he think life is just about love?

After hearing Shen Mingchuan's words, Shen Li remained silent.

Shen Mingchuan had thought about the issues he raised for a long time. In fact, what they care about most is everyone's pointing and comments.

Shen Li’s silence made Shen Mingchuan less angry.

He came here and he knew very well that when it came to emotions, he often found it difficult to control himself.

Looking at Shen Li, Shen Mingchuan said earnestly: "Xingchen is still young and naive. I hope you can be more sensible. I hope you won't put this little love affair first. I hope you can think about me and your mother."

"I'll deal with this matter as soon as possible. Your mother and I won't talk to Xingchen, so as to avoid making her feel bad."

After Shen Mingchuan finished speaking, Shen Li still chose to remain silent.

He agreed to be with Xingchen and accepted being with Xingchen. He made a lot of mental preparation and considered it seriously.

Last night, he thought seriously about their affairs and the future.

But now, after Shen Mingchuan's words, Shen Li seemed to have been beaten back to the time before liberation.

It’s not that he felt that his idea was wrong, nor did he feel that he shouldn’t be with Xingchen, but what Shen Mingchuan said was right. What happened between him and Xingchen was not just a matter between the two of them.

Even ordinary people's marriage involves two families, let alone him and Xingchen.

Even so, Shen Li still didn't want to give up. He wanted to put the eyes and opinions of the world behind him.

However, he could not change his parents' minds, nor could he change the old man and the old lady's minds.

Shen Li didn't finish speaking, so Shen Mingchuan didn't say much either. He just said, "It's getting late. Go back to your room and get some rest."

"Yeah." Shen Li responded lightly, then got up and went back to his room.

My mood is more complicated than in the past few days.

Sitting on the bed and flipping through a book, after a while, there was another knock on the door. Shen Li looked up and saw Shen Xingchen poking his head in again.

Seeing Shen Xingchen coming over again, Shen Li smiled and moved to the side: "Come here."

Even though Shen Mingchuan had just talked to him, Shen Li did not reject Shen Xingchen's approach. He still welcomed her with a smile as before.

Shen Li asked her to come over. Shen Xingchen smiled happily, then went into the house, closed the door, and ran over.

Climbing onto the bed, he naturally snuggled into his arms, without any unfamiliarity.

As usual, Shen Li put his arm around Shen Xingchen's shoulders and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.

Burying her face in Shen Li's chest, Shen Xingchen didn't play tricks on her like usual, but just asked.

"Uncle, why is life in this world so complicated? Why can't it be simpler? Why can't we just focus on ourselves?"

After Shen Xingchen finished speaking, Shen Li looked down at her: "Why did you suddenly think of asking these questions? Did something happen?"

Rubbing her face against his chest, Shen Xingchen said, "No, it's just that after my internship at the hospital, I saw a lot of things and I felt emotional."

Shen Li smiled: "So this is how people are. Most people are like this. If you really only focus on yourself and only be yourself, then the world will be very indifferent. Everything has two sides. You can't just look at one side."

"Yeah." Shen Xingchen nodded.

However, she did not tell Shen Li the real reason why she asked those questions.
