Evil Gang

The Shen family was shocked when they learned that Shen Chi and Su Nanxing were together. Shen Chi had not hidden it because of the medicine.

After all, Shen Can still had to be warned to be careful, didn't he? Once Shen Can was told, it would basically be impossible to keep it hidden.

They might as well make things clear directly, so they would not have to hear about it later through Shen Can's inner thoughts.

The Shen family did not say much. After all, the two young men had made up their minds, and there was no use interfering. They should just let things take their course. How would they know they were unsuitable if they never tried?

The next day, Shen Chi first went with Su Nanxing to see his grandfather. Su Nanxing's grandfather was very supportive of them.

"I still remember that this child ran up to us and asked which one of us was your grandfather, and whether he would do anything if you were bullied."

"Back then, I thought the two of you would definitely become good friends afterward. I just don't know why you failed to get along after returning to A City."

"Grandpa may not know what made you reach this decision, but Grandpa supports it."

"Of course, if he ever wrongs you, you must get out as soon as possible. Don't ruin yourself by getting too deeply trapped in the wrong relationship."

Other than him, Su Nanxing had no other elders. He had a father, but his father did not truly care about him, so some things could only be said by him.

Su Nanxing nodded solemnly. He understood his grandfather's good intentions. And his grandfather had truly treated him very well. At first, his grandfather had not known that he was being bullied.

His father was a very hypocritical person, seeming to care greatly about him. Yet whenever it involved that mistress's son, his father would always make him give way. Even after discovering that he had been bullied, his father treated it as a trivial quarrel between children, never knowing just how horribly he had been bullied.

Before long, Shen Chi returned. He had previously been sent away by the butler. Su Nanxing and Shen Chi did not leave until after accompanying Elder Su for lunch.

Once Su Nanxing got into the car, he began looking over work again. Ever since learning that, in the plot, his grandfather would pass away within two years, he had stopped letting him work so hard. He had even specially hired someone to make medicinal meals to nurse his body back to health.

Sooner or later, he would take over the Su Household's responsibilities. There was no way he would hand them over to that mistress's son. Besides, hadn't his grandfather always kept his father down precisely to pave the way for him?

The two of them went to the Shen Household for dinner, and most of the Shen family was there. Huo Huan was there as well. Since he came over to play often, he was already extremely familiar with the Shen Household.

Assistant He did not have time to pick him up every day, so Huo Huan now had his own driver take him back and forth. After Shen Mother learned this, she told him to stay for dinner whenever he came over to play.

During dinner, Huo Huan looked at the two of them in confusion. "Weren't you sworn enemies? How did you end up together?"

Ever since getting a tablet, he had gained a way to learn about the news. Among wealthy young masters, the ones featured most often in gossip magazines were the two of them, since they were both in the entertainment industry.

Su Nanxing told them about how Shen Chi had saved him. Huo Huan secretly glanced at Shen Zhuo. He was the same as them.

"Then how did you and Third Brother become sworn enemies?" Shen Can was also very curious. In the plot, they had appeared as sworn enemies from the start. Only when Su Nanxing stepped in to help Shen Chi had it mentioned that Shen Chi once saved him.

It never explained why they became sworn enemies again after that. He had guessed that something might have happened in between, but he did not know what exactly it was.

Once Su Nanxing explained, he finally understood. So it turned out Third Brother had brought it on himself.

Naturally, Shen Chi had to defend himself. "I actually meant to reconcile with you afterward. You were the one who started cursing at me every time you came over."

Shen Can silently thought, I can't even bring myself to criticize you, Third Brother. Su Nanxing must have felt completely disillusioned. He had kept you in his heart, grateful to you for so long, and looked forward to seeing you for so long.

Who knows how wonderfully he imagined you, only for you to be completely different from the person who had generously helped others before. He only asked a question, and you immediately snapped at him. You even narcissistically claimed he was hitting on you, and your tone was so irritating.

Who wouldn't get angry? And you were both young and cared about saving face. There was no way he wouldn't hold a grudge against you.

Su Nanxing did not spare Shen Chi's feelings as he honestly said, "You were completely different from what I imagined back then. Just take it as my revenge for having my illusions shattered. At the time, it felt like meeting someone from an online relationship in person and realizing it had all been a mistake."

It was normal that Shen Chi did not remember him, since he had certainly changed as he grew up. But Shen Chi had immediately said in a harsh tone that he had helped countless people, and that this way of striking up a conversation was too cliché. How could that not make him angry?

If he had not looked forward to meeting Shen Chi so much, or imagined him to be so wonderful and perfect, he would not have been angry.

But later, he came to understand that no one had only one side. It was just that he had only seen that side of Shen Chi, only learned about that side, and remembered it for a very, very long time. So it was normal that he could not accept it right away.

Lu Shao burst out laughing. This was far too funny. Luckily, he had never offended his wife anywhere before. Otherwise, not only would it have been utterly humiliating, it would surely be brought up all the time whenever the two of them argued.

Shen Ze glared at Lu Shao. He still had the nerve to laugh? Did he think he was any better? It was only after they got together that Shen Ze learned why Lu Shao had only ever let him scrub his back.

So Lu Shao had clearly had feelings for him, but deliberately kept him from knowing. Did Lu Shao know how many times he had been heartbroken before over believing there was no possibility between them?

As Shen Can ate, he suddenly felt that something was off. So now, does that mean only Fourth Brother and I are single? Oh my god, there are three couples in this family—no, four if you include Dad and Mom. The pressure on me is huge, okay?

And Fourth Brother actually has someone waiting for him too. Although I don't know whether they'll get together later, at least there's a possibility.

What about me? Can Can doesn't even have a single peach blossom. Once they all get into relationships, I'll still be a lonely single dog.

Hmph. When that time comes, I'm definitely moving out!! My career is my true love. With no one in my heart, drawing my sword comes naturally.

Several of them smiled silently. How could they possibly watch Shen Can remain single forever? If Shen Can could never meet someone he liked, they would definitely find a way to introduce someone to him.

After that, the conversation at the table returned to matters concerning Shen Father and Su Nanxing's work. Shen Yu also voiced his opinions.

After they finished discussing the yacht party, Shen Can's inner voice suddenly rang out, It's here. It's finally here.

Doesn't the plot have that whole scenario where he runs, the other chases, and he can't escape even with wings? And what is needed to make that happen? Our male lead needs influence in both the underworld and the legitimate world.

This is the male lead's first opportunity to get involved with that side. He saves the life of A City's underworld boss, who greatly admires him and even deliberately sends his daughter to stay by his side so they can get acquainted.

Shen Keke keeps running away largely because he gets jealous of this woman. Every time Shen Keke runs, Zhou Jingxuan chases him, but he never sends this woman away.

Their gang is truly evil and does everything—loan sharking, forcing women into sex work to earn money for them, trafficking drugs, and selling weapons. Beneath A City's peaceful surface, countless people have had their lives destroyed by them.

Huo Xi walked in just in time to hear that it was finally here. He had gotten home early today and stopped by to pick up Huo Huan. Of course, he also wanted to see what Shen Can was doing. He had not expected to hear this instead. Zhou Jingxuan certainly had some nerve, daring to get involved with anything.
