Chapter 1690: Chapter 1767: Obtaining the Resources
"Mm!" Shen Luhua nodded, "I believe you."
"Then, Aunt, please help me! I’m begging you, it’s a request from your nephew."
Shen Luhua had long guessed that Shen Ming had something to ask of her. The relationship between the aunt and nephew wasn’t good enough for him to come see her personally. Besides, shouldn’t he at least bring something when visiting someone? He came empty-handed, could that count as a visit?
"I’m just a rural woman now, I have nothing. How do you expect me to help you?"
"No, before grandpa died, he entrusted most of the Shen Family resources to An’an. But having them in An’an’s hands without use is just a waste. Only by handing them over to me can they truly be put to good use, and only then can our Shen Family make a comeback."
Shen Luhua was shocked; she wasn’t aware that the old man had given the resources to An’an before he died, and An’an hadn’t mentioned it to her either. No wonder it had driven Shen Ming to come humbly asking for help. But why did the old man arrange it this way?
An’an is very talented, but she’s just a little girl and didn’t intend to take over the Shen Family.
"Aunt..." Shen Ming’s confidence began to waver with Luhua’s reaction. He thought she was just a rural woman, and that his personal plea would easily achieve his goal.
But Shen Luhua’s reaction clearly showed she wasn’t an ordinary rural woman. Of course, how could he be so careless? The daughter valued by the old man wouldn’t be just anyone.
Shen Ming gritted his teeth, and with a thud, knelt on the cold ground, surprising the other diners and the boss.
"Hey, young man, what are you kneeling for?"
"That’s right, the ground’s cold, get up quickly."
The people around were concerned, some even tried to persuade Shen Luhua, unable to stand her indifferent demeanor.
"It’s past the new year, why do you still have him kneeling on the ground?"
"You’ve crossed the line!"
Seeing a rare opportunity, Shen Ming pleaded, "Aunt, your surname is also Shen. These things belong to the Shen Family. If they were given to any of my other brothers, I wouldn’t mind. Even in An’an’s hands, I wouldn’t mind, as long as An’an uses them."
"But An’an doesn’t use them at all. Do you want to watch grandpa’s lifetime efforts go to waste and see the Shen Family descendants live in disgrace forever?"
The last sentence struck the softest spot in Shen Luhua’s heart. No matter what Shen Ming was like, and how partial she was to An’an, her surname was still Shen, and the old man had passed away.
She was better aware than anyone of the kind of treatment the current Shen Family members would suffer.
"Get up now!"
"Aunt, does this mean you agree to help me?" Shen Ming was overjoyed, stood up eagerly, "Aunt, An’an is very stubborn, she’ll only listen to you."
"Alright!" Once Shen Luhua accepted, she suddenly felt all her strength draining away, exhausted, "I’ll write a letter to An’an and explain this to her."
"No, there’s no time." Shen Ming urged anxiously, "Aunt, please write the letter now, I’ll take it back directly."
"Alright then!"
Shen Ming came well-prepared, with a pen and paper at hand. As soon as Shen Luhua agreed, he immediately took out the materials and had her write a letter right away.
Only after receiving the items did Shen Ming finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Great, he finally got what he wanted. With his eyes lowered, he thought of the humiliation of kneeling earlier. His anger tinged his eyes red. To dare to humiliate him like this, just wait!
