What the old man said made a lot of sense, just like an open-minded and broad-minded patriarch.
But Shen Yi knew that his grandfather had never been the one who would allow his descendants to choose their own life paths at will.
If that were the case, Shen Jun would not have been sent to the military camp several times.
If that were the case, he would not have joined the military at such a young age.
If that were the case, Xiaozi would not have broken with her family.
He is a person with such a strong desire for control, so why would he say something now that would allow Shen Xinchen to make his own choice
The old man should know that this is clearly pushing Shen Xinchen into the fire pit.
Mr. Shen certainly had his considerations. If not, he would not have pulled the Shen family to its current status step by step in such a war-torn era.
Mr. Shen has a very good idea.
Shen Yi and Shen Zi are both close to Xinluo, needless to say.
And since he expressed his support for Lu Yuchen at the birthday banquet, he could no longer switch sides.
In the political circle, you either don’t take sides, or once you take sides, you cannot change your position.
Mr. Shen himself firmly stood on the side of Xinluo and Lu Yuchen.
But he also had concerns.
He was worried that if he put all his chips on Lu Yuchen's side, something might go wrong.
That's why, even though he knew that Lu Yishen might not be a good match for him, he still let Shen Xinchen keep the child.
In this way, Shen Jun, Jiang Yunwen and Shen Xinchen will naturally stand on Lu Yishen's side.
Mr. Shen found out the general situation of the Lu family's grievances.
No matter whether Lu Yuchen wins or Lu Yishen comes out on top in the end, only by not putting all their eggs in one basket can they ensure that their Shen family continues to be among the top families.
It has to be said that Mr. Shen is not only cruel to the descendants of the Shen family, but also cruel to himself.
He divided all the members of the Shen family, including himself, into two factions and put them in two camps respectively.
Such a drastic decision, although realistic and cruel, is the real way to preserve the family's glory.
Shen Jun, his biological son, Shen Xinchen, his great-granddaughter, and even Mr. Shen himself, are nothing more than pawns sacrificed for the family's glory.
"Okay, Ayi, since you can't stand Xinchen and Master Lu, you don't have to interfere in Xinchen's affairs from now on. Leave it to your father and Yunwen, they will take good care of Xinchen."
With the old man's words, Shen Xinchen felt as happy as if he had obtained an imperial sword.
"Thank you, great-grandfather. You are the best!" Shen Xinchen acted coquettishly and hugged the old man. Stupidly and ignorant, she just thought that the old man did this because he loved her.
Shen Yi could not disobey the old man's decision, and seeing Shen Xinchen's excited face, the last bit of sense of responsibility as a father in his heart disappeared.
"Well, in that case..." Shen Yi finally took a deep look at Shen Xinchen.
He originally thought that after what happened last night, his daughter would make some progress, but now it seems that he was just overthinking.
Shen Yi sighed in his heart and said to Shen Xinchen expressionlessly: "This is your choice. I hope you won't regret it in the future."
"I absolutely won't!" Shen Xinchen replied without hesitation, protecting her stomach.
If she were to abort the child and marry into an ordinary wealthy family, she would truly regret it!
Seeing Shen Xinchen so determined, Shen Yi nodded and said nothing more.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Shen Yi immediately stood up and opened the door, "It should be Xinchen."
However, when he opened the door, the person standing outside was the woman he had always been hostile to.
Shen Wan, looking excited, appeared before him.
Following behind her were Gu Xinheng, Gu Zonghan and Gu Zihan.
What surprised Shen Yi even more was Gu Xuaner who was standing next to Shen Wan and supporting her.
"Who asked you to come?" Shen Yi frowned with hostility on his face.
"I asked them to come." (To be continued)
