Chapter 75: Chapter 075 He Just Wants to Know Where She Is

The elders from the Jiang Family and the Shen Family had long intended to forge a good relationship between Qin Jin.

Operating in City C for many years, the two families, led by the Jiang Family, had always wanted to get closer to the Shen Family ever since Jiang Meili took a fancy to Shen Han in America.

The Jiang clan had been doing business for several generations in City C and had deep roots, but it was a pity that among the new generation, there were more women than men, and few outstanding ones. Currently, the family’s position in City C was solely supported by the old foundation.

In contrast, the Shen Family, although it had been managed for only two generations, had risen to become a highly sought-after new elite in City C after years of dedicated effort. In particular, the third-generation successor Shen Han, who had just returned from studies abroad, despite his young age, acted with extreme prudence and maturity. He had already secured a position in the company shortly after his return, and his future prospects were boundless.

Therefore, the parents of the Jiang Family were pleased to see their daughter growing closer to Shen Han.

However, the daughter who returned from the Shen Family that evening seemed to be in a bad mood, and Jiang’s mother, sitting on the living room couch, watched her deep-in-thought daughter as she went upstairs, feeling somewhat worried.

...

“Didn’t she visit the Shen Family today? Why does she look so unhappy when she comes back? Did the Shen Family make her lose face?”

Jiang’s father looked down at the newspaper, and without raising his head, frowned and said in a deep voice, “Nonsense, what kind of family is the Shen Family, how could they make her lose face.”

Jiang’s mother pursed her lips, “Then look at how she came back, with such a dark face; I don’t know what happened.”

Jiang’s father turned a page and lifted his head, “What else could it be? Every time she’s not happy, it’s because of that kid Shen Han.”

“Did the two have a quarrel?” Mentioning the future son-in-law, Jiang’s mother grew even more worried; she quite liked the child from the Shen Family.

“Wait a bit, then go probe for some information.”

“That’s a good idea.”

Jiang’s father absentmindedly turned on the television, which happened to be broadcasting emergency news about an earthquake. The news not only reported on the disaster caused by the earthquake but also especially thanked the first batch of enterprises that had donated relief materials and funds.

Jiang’s father squinted at the television for a while, noticing that the Shen family’s name was prominently out there, and the scale of their materials and funds was not small at all.

Jiang’s father remarked, “This lad Shen Han, though a novice, is acting far more reliably than some old-timers in the Shen family.”

“Talking about an earthquake, there comes an earthquake; the heavens really don’t want people to live peacefully. Just look at these poor people, tsk tsk, it’s too frightening,” Jiang’s mother said sympathetically on the side.

Jiang’s father watched the latest news for a while and then made a phone call to his secretary.

The content of the phone call was concise, decreeing that the Jiang Family would also donate relief supplies, standing with the people in the disaster area through thick and thin.

As for the scale of the donation, that was simple, just match the Shen Family’s scale.

With this, the Jiang and Shen families’ actions in supporting the disaster area were so in sync that they were bound to have a considerable impact on both the business community and the society of City C. To the outside world, the harmonious steps of the two families would naturally lead to much speculation from the uninformed.

And such ambiguous speculation played right into Jiang’s father’s hands; whether the union between his daughter Jiang Meili and Shen Han came to pass or not, it could still stir up some waves. These minor ripples that would not affect the overall situation were just what he needed to probe the Shen Family’s attitude.

His daughter, Jiang Meili, certainly wouldn’t easily suffer the whims of another family.

The Jiang Family’s stance was clear on this night, while the parents from Shen Family were also at a loss, unable to understand why their son suddenly postponed his visit to the Jiang Family and his intentions.

Upstairs in the bathroom, Shen Han stood under the showerhead, the warm water flowing from above, cascading down his well-built upper body, tracing the clear-cut lines with a glistening sheen.

Even the steam-laden moisture, permeating the air, could not extinguish the restlessness in his heart at that moment.

For two whole days, he had made over a hundred phone calls, from initial hidden anger to eventual calm; he no longer cared why she wouldn’t answer his calls, he just wanted to know where that girl Su Shu was.
