Chapter 806 Fishing Scheming Boy X Indifferent Uncle 40
Shen Xi was sitting in the room, his mind still immersed in the series of events that had just happened. There was a gentle knock on the door, and the nanny's voice came from outside the door: "Young Master, come downstairs for dinner, the master is waiting for you." Shen Xi responded, stood up, tidied his clothes, and walked downstairs steadily.
When he arrived at the restaurant, he glanced at the table and found that only Shen Fang was sitting there quietly. Shen Fang at this moment was completely different from when he faced Shen Wenshan before. There was no trace of anger. His face was full of tenderness, and his eyes showed the special kindness of an elder to a younger generation.
"Xixi, come and have dinner. Grandpa and your second uncle have talked so much, you must be hungry, so eat quickly." Shen Fang greeted her with a smile, his voice full of concern.
Shen Xi responded politely, "It's fine, Grandpa." Then he walked to the seat next to Shen Fang and sat down. He looked around and found that someone was missing, so he asked, "Where's Second Uncle? Isn't he staying for dinner?"
Shen Fang picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly, "He said he doesn't want to eat, he has something else to do at the company."
"Oh. Okay." Shen Xi responded in a calm tone.
Shen Fang kept an eye on Shen Xi from the corner of his eye. When he mentioned the company's matters, there was no extra reaction on Shen Xi's face. He neither asked questions eagerly nor showed excessive curiosity.
This calmness and composure made Shen Fang admire him even more. He thought to himself: "The child is very smart. He can keep his composure when facing topics related to interests, but I don't know what his actual ability is."
An old fox is still an old fox after all. As the person in charge of the Shen family for so many years, he is still very good at judging people.
After just two days of getting along, he was already able to conclude that Shen Xi definitely came back not just to see him as he said.
He couldn't explore the deeper reasons, but it was enough to show that he was not simple.
This discovery did not make Shen Fang feel bored, but happy instead.
After all, a simple child cannot be the heir, so what if he is a little scheming? Only smart people are worthy of being his heir.
"Xixi is a sophomore now, right?"
“Yes, the Department of Financial Management.”
Shen Fang nodded thoughtfully: "Then the sophomore courses should be very tight, why does it seem like Xixi doesn't have any classes normally?"
Shen Xi understood that he was trying to find out his own strength indirectly.
This will just make him more determined to change his heir.
“I had applied for exemption from the exam before, and I had already completed the sophomore courses and taken the exam, so I didn’t need to go to school again.
I had no money before, so in order to survive, I could only try to spare more time to work.
And the younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage also need money to improve their lives.”
Killing two birds with one stone, it not only shows that he is not a stupid person, but also shows that even though he is so poor, he will not forget his roots and still has good intentions.
As people grow older, they will gradually tend towards this kindness.
What's more, Shen Fang is an old man who does charity every now and then.
Just these words directly raised Shen Xi's status a little bit.
"okay."
Although he didn't show it on his face, he had already started praising him in his heart.
"Life in the orphanage is very hard. Xixi, tell grandpa the name and address of the orphanage later. I will help them."
"Thank you, grandpa."
The two talked about the orphanage for a while, and then got the topic back on track.
"Since Xixi doesn't have to go to class recently and is free, why don't you go to the company with Grandpa?
Grandpa can also ask you to manage the company, so it will be convenient for you to join the company in the future."
In response to his invitation, Shen Xi did not agree directly, but mentioned Shen Wenshan hesitantly.
"No need, Grandpa. Second Uncle doesn't seem to welcome me, so I'll just stay home with you.
If I were brought into the company, my second uncle would probably..."
Shen Fang shook his head and interrupted him: "As long as grandpa is still alive, he wouldn't dare to do anything to you.
Listen to Grandpa and go to the company with him. Grandpa will teach you how to manage family affairs, which will make things easier for you in the future."
He didn't say directly that it was for the convenience of helping Shen Fang manage the business, or did he say it was for the convenience so that his subordinates wouldn't say anything when he took over directly in the future?
He did not directly state the bigger reason because he himself was not clear about it at the moment.
Although Shen Wenshan is indeed not as good as Shen Xi, he does not know how to read people's expressions, does things rashly, and may even be less capable than him.
But after all, he grew up by my side, so he knows him better.
Therefore, the final destination of the heirs still needs to be examined.
