Chapter 1310: The Wedding (5)

Upon arrival at the old home, Shen Liangchuan found the Senior Master practicing t’ai chi in the courtyard.

As he had been very busy lately, Shen Liangchuan had not visited the old man for a while.

Now that he saw the Senior Master, he realized that his grandfather’s hair had turned completely white.

Even though the old man’s complexion didn’t seem very much out of the ordinary, it did look like his body was weakening.

Likelihood was that Shen Xiu’s death had taken a big toll on him.

The young man sighed.

Although he had not spent a lot of time with his grandfather as he was growing up, the fact was that every time he visited the old man, he would show great fondness for him.

And although the Senior Master had not intervened when Shen Xiu kicked his mother and him out of the family, it would be a lie to say that Shen Liangchuan had no affection for the man.

Seeing that his grandfather was still exercising, he walked towards the coffee table by the side and picked up a tea cup.

Once the old man finished his set of moves, Shen Liangchuan walked up without a word and handed him the tea.

The old man paused as he looked at the tea cup.

He reached out for the drink. Looking at Shen Liangchuan and pointing to the bench by the side of the courtyard, he said, “Take a seat.”

Shen Liangchuan walked over and sat down.

The Senior Master sat next to him and started unhurriedly, “I’ve always believed that a leader needs to be cold and unemotional. When your father kicked you out, I knew but I did not intervene. The reason was firstly to allow that experience to shape you. Secondly, I felt that your father had always felt inadequate and lacked confidence next to you. And I wondered if he would grow to be more responsible without you around, so I did not interfere in this matter.”

“But now that he has died, I suddenly realize I actually do care for him. Sometimes, being alive is far more important than being capable.”

“I’m beginning to even wonder if I had made a mistake. I had always felt that your father had a lot of time still. I thought that once the both of you had reconciled, he’d realize your capability and would come to accept you. But sigh… life is unpredictable!”

Shen Liangchuan nodded as he listened to the old man talking.

The old man continued, “In recent years, your father became increasingly ridiculous. It was all because of Mei Feng’s instigation. That’s why there’s the saying that if one were to take a wife, then it should be a virtuous wife. Choosing a wife is extremely important.”

Shen Liangchuan was slightly surprised by his remark. The old man continued, “So have you given careful consideration to marrying this young caster?”

Shen Liangchuan replied, “Granddad, we are already married. This event is but a wedding.”

Senior Master Shen waved his hand and continued, “I don’t really want to hear all that. As long as there was no wedding, a quiet divorce is always possible. My only question to you is, are you sure this woman is the one?”

Without a moment of hesitation, the young man replied, “That is right.”

The old man snorted coldly and made a gesture. Butler Cai walked up almost immediately with a doc.u.ment in his hand.

Pointing to the doc.u.ment, he told Shen Liangchuan, “This is the doc.u.ment for the transfer of the company shares. If you’re willing to take a woman with a good family background instead, I will transfer my company shares to you. This will give you the official capacity to make decisions. But if you insist on marrying this girl, then I will treat you like your father, you will only have the management authority before I die, and no actual shares. You can take a day to think about and weigh the two options…”
