Chapter 242 - The Egoistic Shen Zhilan

"Stinky boy. Show me the apartment where you live."

Grandfather He said as he followed He Jian who had already come out of Mo Roulan's apartment.

Grandfather He frowned when he saw him typing something on the screen and the door opened. Only then did the old man realize that this was where He Jian lived currently.

However, before he could even glance inside the apartment, He Jian entered and then shut the door on his face.

Grandfather He stood at the door with a face full of shock and disbelief. 

Standing behind his master, Butler Zhang sighed seeing this.  Did the old man think that after whatever he had done, the young master will welcome him with his arms open?

Not only did he try to send away Mo Roulan without He Jian's knowledge, but he also didn't tell him that he had found her before him.   

Butler Zhang sighed again and then took some cotton out from the pocket that he had picked from Mo Roulan's house.

After that, he stuffed that cotton in his ears and could only hear the faint voice of the old man but couldn't understand anything. 

Butler Zhang saw Grandfather He suddenly turned to him with a red face and saw how his lips were moving frantically.

He didn't what the old man was saying but to no look suspicious, he nodded his head while patting the old man's back.

"I came all the way here to see him but he shut the door of his apartment at my face. That stinky boy…what does he take me for? A fool!"

Grandfather He looked at his butler with an exasperated face.

Butler Zhang thought that he must be self-pitying himself like every time so without hesitating, the old butler nodded his head with a sympathetic expression on his face.

Grandfather He's face went more red as he said

"So he does. How dare he take me as a fool! Do I look like a fool?"

Butler Zhang again nodded his head without any hesitation.

Grandfather He looked at his butler as if he had gone crazy. His face almost had an expression as if he had been betrayed by his lover.

He couldn't even shout as he didn't want to attract attention and let the people know that he had just been insulted by his own grandson.   

In the end, he threw away the butler's hand and then moved towards the elevator.                 

While Butler Zhang only thought that the old man was throwing tantrum and followed him silently.

Shen Yiling was sitting on the dining table with a frown on her forehead. 

It was nighttime and she was having dinner. However, the plated placed in front of her was still untouched even though a few minutes had passed already.

She swiftly turned her head around when she heard the sound of footsteps. Her eyes brightened a little when she saw her mother walking inside the Shen Villa.     

The past few weeks had been a little hectic for Shen family. After He Jian stopped Shen Enterprises products to go through his island, their products never reached the international market at the time and hence their company faced a huge loss.

Her father and mother had not been home for already a whole of two weeks now. Even her grandfather had to go to Shen company to help and assure the employees of the company sometimes.     

Inside her heart, Shen Yiling could not help but sneer at her own family's weakness.

So weak it was that with He Jian's one action, her mother and father are running with their tail between their legs.

That's why she wanted to marry a man like He Jian. A man who was so powerful…Shen Yiling would feel as if she was in the air whenever she imagined just what kind of life it would be after she became the daughter-in-law of He family.

However, currently, everything seems to be too far away from her reach because of this certain someone.

Shen Yiling hurriedly stood up from the table and then walked towards her mother.

"Mo, you are back. I had been waiting for you every day."

Shen Zhilan stopped when she saw her daughter.

Exhaustion could clearly be seen on her face. However, she tried to smile for her daughter and said apologetically.

"Sorry, Yiling. Mom was too busy and didn't get the time to call you and ask how you are doing."

Shen Yiling immediately shook her head and said sensibly.

"No need of sorry, Mom. You were also working. I can understand that we are in a critical situation. That's why I didn't even go shopping as I was very worried that it would only reduce the money that can help us."

Shen Zhilan was very moved seeing how sensible her daughter was. She couldn't help but hold her hand and say   

"You don't need to worry, darling. Although we are in a trouble, it is not big enough that we can't afford the money for your shopping. Also, we have already solved everything. Your grandfather arranged a helicopter with the help of the patriarch of He family and the products are back. Since we can't send them to the international market we will sell them like any other product. Although there will not be any benefit, we can only do this now."

Shen Zhilan smiled tightly. Her heart burned in a fire whenever she imagined the losses the company would face. Actually, it was not the loss of the money that pained her. It was her egoistic that had been completely slapped harshly because of this incident. 

She had been a very successful businesswoman for her whole life and she had never faced such a huge defeat.

And Shen Zhilan was a woman who could not accept defeat. However, this time she didn't have any other way except to accept it.

Hiding her emotions inside her heart, she patted her daughter's cheek as she said

"Go to the mall tomorrow and buy whatever you want."

Shen Yiling smiled happily at these words. However, her smile faltered when she saw that her mother was about to leave.

She immediately called out her and said

"Mom, did you find anything about Youlin?"

Shen Zhilan's eyes instantly went cold at these words. She sighed lightly and then said 

"Yiling, I don't want to talk about her right now. It is only because of her we are facing such a big trouble."

Shen Yiling felt very satisfied hearing these words. Fortunately, her mother didn't blame her for anything. 

After all, it was her idea to send that girl to prison by using Shen Youlin's matter. However, she still had to find out where Shen Youlin was so she tried to ask again. 

However, Shen Zhilan immediately raised her hand and said that she was very tired.

After that, she left from there while Shen Yiling glared at her back angrily.   

However, she could only whisper to herself

'Now, how can I find out where she is!'
