Chapter 245: Your Selfishness
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
No one dared to ask Shen Yu about what had happened to him at that time, because as soon as they asked, Shen Yu seemed to have gone crazy. Several times, he even began to hurt himself. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital to be resuscitated.
“Millie, you don’t know how surprised and relieved we were when we found out that Xiao Yu was willing to talk to you, so we tried every means to keep you in the Shen family. To Xiao Yu, you are the most special person.”
Emily’s body stiffened. The most special person? But didn’t Shen Yu have someone to accompany him now? How could she still be the most special person?
“Grandpa, this happened when we were young. Brother is much better than before, and he’ll be better and better in the future. Actually, I just wanted to come up and ask you, did you already know who the person who wanted to hurt Brother was?”
A trace of inquiry flashed through Emily’s eyes. Shen Yan had been the head of the Shen family for so many years. How could such a smart person not know who was behind this?
Shen Yan looked at her with wide eyes. He did not expect Emily to ask him this question. He thought that Emily came up to ask Shen Yan about the past. So, when did she find out?
“When did you find out?” Shen Yan sighed deeply. It seemed that he had underestimated the little girl in front of him. She was actually so smart.
“Perhaps I had some doubts since Brother had to rush back in such a tense environment. My brother is not a person without filial piety. Even when Grandma was unconscious, he still insisted on rushing back. That can only mean one reason. The person that Brother wants to deal with is abroad. Or rather, the person who has been dealing with Brother is abroad.”
Emily touched her chin and continued, “So you’re saying that the people who wanted to deal with Brother in the first place were my uncle’s family?”
A trace of surprise flashed across Shen Yan’s eyes. That was why Shen Yan had been hesitating. It was not because he could not find the person who hurt Shen Yu, but because it was someone that Shen Yan was unable to hurt. After all, it was the flesh and blood of his closest relative.
Shen Yan was surprised. Emily had guessed it right away. Shen Yan sighed deeply as if he had aged a few years. That was also the reason why Joseph had moved overseas the moment Joseph had arrived at the Shen family.
The first son of the Shen family had been driven overseas by Shen Yan because he knew that the first son would not let Emily off the hook once she was able to treat Shen Yu’s illness. In the eldest son’s eyes, he would never let Emily off the hook. Only when Shen Zhe and Shen Yu were having a hard time would he feel better.
“Grandpa, are you still unwilling to admit it? Actually, you know in your heart that although Brother is fine, Big Brother is really sleeping in the ICU. Do you really have to wait until something happens to Brother before you can understand?”
“How dare you!” Shen Yan patted the bedside table hard. He suddenly thought of Old Madam Shen, who was still unconscious, and a trace of worry flashed across his eyes. Emily also looked anxiously. Only seeing that Old Madam Shen did not wake up did she feel relieved.
“Grandpa, can you not be so stubborn? Actually, you know a lot of things very well in your heart, but you are not willing to admit it. I don��t know what exactly happened that year, but if you had made a move from the beginning, then Brother and I would not have fallen into such a dilemma.”
Emily took a deep breath and said everything that she wanted to say. Although this might anger Shen Yan, there were some things that Emily still had to say. This was for the good of everyone in the Shen family.
“Is this the attitude you have when speaking to your elders?” A cold light flashed in Shen Yan’s eyes. Perhaps even Shen Yan didn’t expect that Emily would speak to him so impudently.
“I’m sorry, Grandpa. I was just too angry. I thought of Sister-in-law’s worried look, Grandma still lying down, and even Xiao Lu’s eyes were swollen from crying. Second Aunt and Third Aunt did not say anything in their hearts, but they were also extremely worried. Why did Second Uncle and Third Uncle investigate outside every day for so many years?”
The more Emily spoke, the angrier she got. She simply told him everything she wanted to say. She took a deep breath and continued, “Grandpa, do you really think that Second Uncle and Third Uncle are so stupid that they haven’t found anything after so many years? I think you know very well what they are after. It’s just that you don’t want to admit it.”
“You… You…” Shen Yan pointed at Emily, but in the end, he helplessly put his hand down, waved his hand, and said weakly, “You go out first, I’ll think about it.”
Emily thought for a while, but she didn’t continue to persist. Instead, she went up to Shen Yan and checked his pulse. Seeing that Shen Yan was just a little anxious, she felt relieved and left. After all, she was probably the person that Shen Yan did not want to see the most right now.
“Old man….”
