Chapter 183 The truth about old friends
Li Siheng's question made Li Tingmo snort in disdain.

"No matter how much Shen Jinci dotes on Bian Yue, he can't joke about the entire Lixing. He is in a high position. If Bian Yue can let it go, why should he care about it? Annoying everyone would be a loss for him."

Li Tingmo said this and looked at Li Siheng with a serious face, "You just heard what Bian Yue said. I advise you to give up as soon as possible and stop having any more delusions!"

Li Siheng did not answer Li Tingmo's words. He remained silent and just covered his fist and coughed softly.

Su Youxue came down from upstairs and saw Li Siheng's frail appearance. She stepped forward with concern and said, "Mr. Li, I'll take you upstairs to rest."

Li Siheng let him talk and supported him, walking upstairs.

Li Tingmo looked at the two people's backs and frowned unhappily.
Shen's Manor, study.

The sun is rising.

Shen Zhaoli sat on the sofa, legs casually crossed, looking at the man standing in the middle, "This is the Dai Jiangqing you asked me to find, the personal assistant of Shen Shu back then."

Shen Jinci stood behind the desk in the dark, the light fell on him, and his expression was unclear.

It was unclear whether he was listening to Shen Zhaoli's words, as his expression was dull.

As for the man standing in the middle, called Dai Jiangqing, he already had a head of silver hair and looked old and haggard, like an ordinary old man. How could he look like the man who drank tea in the past?

It was only about 8 years ago, but he had already aged greatly and looked terrible.

At this moment, he was looking at Shen Jinci with a horrified look, his lips trembling subconsciously.

Shen Zhaoli noticed his abnormality but said nothing. He just stood up slowly and said, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You guys chat slowly."

Shen Zhaoli got up and left, closing the door for the two of them.

Dai Jiangqing's emotions finally exploded after Shen Zhaoli left.

As the door closed, he looked at Shen Jinci with fear on his face, and words of begging for mercy came out of his mouth.

"Mr. Shen Shen, what do you want to see me for? Don't worry, I have kept my mouth shut for so many years and never mentioned anything about you to anyone else." Dai Jiangqing trembled and said in a hoarse voice, "You will always be Mr. Shen."

Shen Jinci looked at Dai Jiangqing with a dull expression. His eyes had a kind of silent control and pressure that made people feel a heavy sense of depression.

He spoke in the same indifferent tone, "When Shen Shu died, you left the Shen family immediately. To do this, you even gave up all your connections in Hong Kong. You were willing to let your lifelong struggle turn into nothing. I knew that you must have hidden a lot of things from me."

Dai Jiangqing was shocked by Shen Jinci's words, and the panic in his eyes became more serious. "Mr. Shen, after all, I have been with Mr. Shen for his entire life. I know too many things. I dare not stay, and I know that you will definitely not tolerate me."

A new emperor appoints new ministers, and Dai Jiangqing understood this.

Shen Shu's power was unshakable back then, and as his most trusted confidant, he also enjoyed great glory.

But Dai Jiangqing understood how dangerous the man in front of her was. Between saving her life and power, Dai Jiangqing chose the former without hesitation.

"But no one in the Shen family has any say about you now. Those things that happened to Mr. Shen are all in the past. You really don't need to take them to heart."

Dai Jiangqing said this and raised two index fingers, "Mr. Shen, I will keep everything to myself and I won't let you worry about it."

Shen Jinci took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and lit it carelessly. After a long silence, the cigarette on his fingertips was half burned, and he pinched it out with force. He looked at Dai Jiangqing and said in a deep voice: "At the beginning, did the Shen family know that the Bian family was going to be in trouble?" "Mr. Shen" Dai Jiangqing's face was obviously horrified. He looked at Shen Jinci uneasily, and his voice trembled even more. "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"You just have to answer me, don't you?"

"Mr. Shen, these things have nothing to do with you. Now the Bian family has disappeared. Are you investigating this to... to fight for the young master?"

The young master that Dai Jiangqing mentioned was the real Shen Jinci. And Dai Jiangqing's answer also indirectly confirmed Shen Jinci's problem.

There is a high probability that the Shen family also knew about the disaster that happened to the Bian family and even the death of Bian Yue’s parents.

Shen Jinci frowned, his handsome face gloomy. He stared at Dai Jiangqing and asked in a cold voice, "Why are you standing up for him?"

"Mr. Shen, please don't ask. These things really have nothing to do with you." Dai Jiangqing's forehead was sweating with nervousness, his voice was tense, and his breathing was particularly rapid. "Why... why are you suddenly pursuing these things?"

"Bian Yue is my wife."

Dai Jiangqing looked at Shen Jinci with disbelief.

"Are you going to take everything that the young master likes for yourself?" Dai Jiangqing threw away his fear at this moment. He said in a trembling voice with some indignation, "You already own the entire Shen family, and everything that the master has worked so hard for. Why are you still not satisfied?"

All awe comes from fear, but only the anger at this moment is a true feeling from the heart.

Shen Jinci knew that if the world knew the truth, they would only think that he was usurping the throne and his behavior was despicable.

But Shen Jinci didn't care. He looked at Dai Jiangqing coldly, "Is it your turn to question my affairs?"

Dai Jiangqing broke out in a cold sweat on his back and said quickly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, that's not what I meant."

"At the beginning, did that person know that the Bian family was going to be in trouble?"

Shen Jinci's questions were sharp.

Dai Jiangqing looked at Shen Jinci in horror. Light and shadow floated on his body, and for a moment, they illuminated all the emotions on his face.

With just one glance, Dai Jiangqing seemed to see the dead Shen Jinci, the real young master of the Shen family.

They have exactly the same face, so why does one look like a peerless gentleman, while the other one is so chilling, like a jade-faced Asura from hell?

Dai Jiangqing turned pale and murmured, "You are asking this now..."

"I don't want to hear your excuses. I want the result. I can tell you that if I don't get the answer I want today, I won't let you leave." Shen Jinci said coldly, "There are so many places in the Shen family. I can always find one for you to stay until you die."

Dai Jiangqing showed fear on his face, and there was a deep struggle in his eyes. After a long while, he said, "The young master knew it at the beginning."

Shen Jinci was surprised by this answer.

He had been mentally prepared from Shen Zhaoli's hints, but at this moment, the truth was so sordid.

Shen Jinci clenched his fist under his suit jacket, his voice as cold as ice: "Doesn't he love Bian Yue? He just looks at her like this?"
