Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099-Selfish
Shen Hong also agreed with Shen Tong’s idea, but when he thought about leaving the Xu family, he was a little reluctant.
The Xu family treated the mother and son very well. Jing Yunzhao treated him like a cousin, Grandpa Xu and Second Uncle Xu treated him very politely and happily, as if they were family. Xu Yuanze was even more so. The two of them usually played chess and practiced martial arts, and they got along very well. Once they moved away, no one else in the country would be able to chat with him as happily as they did.
Shen Hong was a little disappointed, but he still followed his mother’s wishes and prepared to talk to Mayor Xu about this matter first.
After dinner, Shen Hong organized his thoughts. After some consideration, he said,”Elder Xu, Eldest Uncle Xu, Second Uncle Xu, Mother and I have been bothering the Xu family for a period of time. I think…I’m moving out in the next two days, so I wanted to discuss it with you…”
The old man’s face twitched as he glared at Xu Yuanze.
He had finally seen a decent grandson at his age, but in the end, his “useless” son did not even dare to acknowledge his grandson.
Xu Yuanze’s entire body stiffened, and his expression turned strange.
The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point. Jing Yunzhao took a bite of the big apple in her space and sank into the sofa without saying a word. Xu Yuancheng glared at Xu Yuanze with a provocative look on his face.
“Is it because the Xu family didn’t take good care of you?” Xu Yuanze asked after some thought.
“Of course not. The Xu family treats me and my mother like family, which makes me very touched. It’s just that it’s been a long time. Now that Auntie and Uncle have divorced, I’m afraid it’s not suitable for us to continue living here.”Shen Hong continued.
Xu Yuanze thought for a moment and felt that what he said made sense.
However…
“There’s nothing inappropriate about it. You’re friends invited by Zhao ‘er, so what does it have to do with Chen Xi? Just continue to live there. Recently, Chen Xi has been living well outside. If you go out, wouldn’t you be throwing yourself into a tiger’s den?”Xu Yuanze suddenly felt that not dealing with Chen Xi for the time being was a good thing.
“Uncle Xu, after all, I have the ability to protect myself. With me around, I will definitely not let mommy fall into danger again…”
“You can’t be so sure. You still have to go to work. It’s impossible for you to follow your mother twenty-four hours a day. She’s already worked very hard to take care of you and support you all these years.”Xu Yuanze said sincerely.
Although he hated Shen Xi, he felt deeply guilty towards Shen Tong.
This woman had given birth to a son for him and educated him to be so successful…
Back then, it was because of him that Shen Tong did not have a bright future. All these years, he had skyrocketed, but this woman had suffered all kinds of grievances.
Xu Yuanze’s words made Shen Hong feel strange. Shen Tong was not around at the moment, so Shen Hong thought for a while and asked bravely,”Uncle Xu, you…Did something happen to my mommy… Special meaning?”
Xu Yuanze’s lips twitched as the old man shot him a threatening look.
At this time, of course, he had to admit that with their recent friendship, how could Shen Hong not help? Wouldn’t he not have to move away?
Xu Yuancheng nodded in agreement.
Jing Yunzhao did not expect her cousin to be so direct. She was looking forward to hearing his answer.
“To be honest, I admire your mother very much. She is an outstanding woman and deserves my admiration.”Xu Yuanze finally opened his mouth and said,””I do have my own selfish motives for wanting to keep you alive…”
