Sweet Chief Secretary - Chapter 515 - Interrogate Face to Face
At Shen’s old house, Shen Qiang grabbed Shen Mo’s clothes, his gaze looking ferocious, and he asked with his teeth clenched, “Shen Mo, you feel good now, huh?”
The child was at odds with his eldest brother just a few days after he came back. Did he find it hard to adapt to that land?
All servants in the room looked at him and wanted to stop them from fighting, but Shen Qiang’s look was a little scary.
They hesitated for a while and decided to go find Old Madame.
These children couldn’t be quiet for a while? The older they are, the more rebellious they become. Now even picking a fight, which was previously impossible. Old Madame sighed and went to the living room.
She had a headache. In the past few years, it was only Shen Mo and Shen Yan at odds, and their relationship seemed to get worse, but Shen Qiang still respected his eldest brother. What happened to this child today?
Old Madame knocked the ground with her walking stick, and yelled, “Stop!”

They ignored her, so Old Madame took a deep breath, and said again, “Stop!”
This time the two finally stopped, but Shen Qiang looked at Shen Mo defiantly, seeming as if he might pounce back at any time.
This child was famous for his tactful character. He wouldn’t be like this if he was not so angry. Old Madame knew him well, didn’t she? She beckoned to let Shen Qiang come over. “Tell grandma, what is going on?”
Shen Qiang came to Old Madame, but he did not speak, and his eyes stared at Shen Mo like a knife.
It’s blindingly obvious to tell from this expression that Shen Mo had provoked him. But Shen Mo was wronged. He got up early in the morning to notice the boy wasn’t right. Shen Mo thought he had been wronged outside and ignored him.
But after walking around a while, the kid directly punched Shen Mo without even one word, leaving Shen Mo wondering what’s happening.
After Old Madame asked, Shen Mo saw that Shen Qiang was silent, so he said, “Grandma, I really didn’t mess with him.”
Old Madame had always been biased in favor of the youngest grandson since he was little. In this old house, Shen Qiang was the overlord. No matter what was going on, Shen Qiang was in control. His one frown would mean that someone else did something wrong.
Shen Mo had to clarify the relationship first, so as not to be asked to apologize to the kid after being scolded by Old Madame later. It wouldn’t matter when he was a kid, but now Shen Mo was the president of several companies. He couldn’t lose his face.
“Shut up! No one’s asking you.” Sure enough, as soon as he spoke, Old Madame dissed him back, that’s typical of her in Shen Mo’s knowledge. Old Madame took Shen Qiang’s hand and asked gently, “Xiao Qiang, tell grandma, what did your eldest brother do? I will ask him to apologize to you.”
That’s exactly her reaction Shen Mo anticipated. He sighed silently in his heart, with his eyes still staring at Shen Qiang. Shame for him! A 20-year-old man acted cute in front of the elderly.
“What are you looking at, you bastard? In the presence of grandma today, we will never be brothers again.” Shen Qiang said and was about to rush to hit him.
“Stop!” The usual quarrels were commonplace, but today Shen Qiang had said too excessively. How angry was he that he even uttered this? Old Madame shouted and stood up, “What on earth happened? Tell me!”
Although Shen Qiang was young, he had always managed with things within reason. As a series of events happened in succession, Old Madame was really afraid there’s a big problem.
There was exactly a big problem. Shen Qiang pointed to Shen Mo, clenched his teeth and said, “This inhuman bastard didn’t have the ability to win my second brother, so he tried to start from his girlfriend, asking a few rascals to insult her. But fortunately, my second brother arrived in time.”
“What?!” Old Madame was dazed by his words. She was afraid of some big problem, and there’s really a stupendous one.
Who was Xia Yu? His sister-in-law, whom he should never do that to no matter how mad he was.
“You, you, you….” Old Madame pointed at Shen Mo for a long time and could not say anything.
Shen Mo was also listening to Shen Qiang to figure out what he would say to let Old Madame punish him. But as soon as he said this, Shen Mo was stunned.
Xia Yu was almost insulted, and it was directed by him?
The expression of Old Madame showed that she was convinced. Was him such a bastard in their eyes? Shen Mo was inflamed all of a sudden.
“Shen Qiang, shut up!” Shen Mo was furious on the spot. “This is what your good second brother has planned with you, isn’t it? Fine, give a dog a bad name and hang him, right?”
“Shen Mo, nobody’s gonna trust your trick of a thief crying stop thief. You thought that everyone was as unscrupulous as you? You even deliberately went to Zhang Hanyu at the uncle’s birthday feast, let him hurt Wanru and then hypocritically asked Zhou Yan to return Wanru back to Zhang Hanyu. How righteous you are! Spread rumors that my second brother stale scene from you and ingratiated himself with your friends.” Shen Qiang was so indignant that he poured out all his resentment, totally ignoring Old Madame’s presence.
“Shen Qiang, don’t think that you have grandma to protect you, so I dare not beat you! If you are not gonna finish your bullshit, don’t blame me for being too brutal.” At President Ning’s birthday banquet, Shen Mo was indeed suspected of tricking Shen Yan, which was all a trivial matter, but now Shen Qiang said that he had asked someone to insult Xia Yu, which went far beyond what he could bear.
“Did you do it or not!” Old Madame was also trembling with anger. Although Shen Qiang was a little slick and sly, he would not make fun of such a big thing.
Xia Mingde was very unhappy because the two brothers fought each other last time. Although he did not explicitly say that Xia Yu was not allowed to contact Shen Yan, he said nothing about the engagement.
If something unpleasant happened again, not to mention that the marriage was over, she’s afraid that even she could not protect Shen Mo if Xia Yu’s families come troubling.
Why couldn’t this child spare me worry? Ningjing died young because of their relationship and that’s why President Ning hadn’t been to Shen Family for years.
Then it’s Xia family now. Was he trying to let all in the Shen Family stay at home?
“Grandma, you believe whatever he said? In your heart, I am such a vile person?” It seemed blindingly obvious that Old Madame believed him, and Shen Mo almost faint with anger.
She even said that he himself was her biggest pride, to whom she had high hopes for. But when a callow kid told tales, she herself followed interrogating him.
Was this what she called belief? Or the tide had turned? Grandma didn’t care about him anymore? Shen Mo stared at her with disappointment seared in his eyes.
But how could Old Madame listen to what Shen Mo had said? She only knew that if this matter was true, Xia Mingde would soon come here. Then not only would Shen Mo’s reputation be destroyed, but the reputation of the whole Shen family would also be undermined.
“Xiao Mo, everyone always says that I spoil you too much, and I will respond that they are just jealous of you. Now it seems they are right. I’ve spoiled you too much to make you lawless now.” Old Madame ignored what Shen Mo said because She was very disappointed with Shen Mo.
“Oh, did you spoil me? Why didn’t I feel it?” When Shen Mo heard the old lady’s tone, he knew that she had determined that he had done it, so he couldn’t help stricken by sorrow. “You say you spoiled me all the time, it is because I’m so capable that when you bring me by your side, others will compliment you. And once I can’t satisfy your vanity, will you take me with you?”
He felt himself, other than the other people, also wronged, as everyone in trouble came to him because he’s the eldest son. The moral was that the eldest son always shouldered the most.
But when it came to enjoyment, why did no one come forward and say that you are the eldest son and you deserve the most?
“You, you, you!” Old Madame obviously did not expect that Shen Mo would say something like that. She examined her conscience, thinking that she had taken him alongside to train him.
But he saw her that way. Old Madame was really disappointed.
“Little Mo, are you crazy?” The three grandchildren in the living room had quarreled for a while. First Madame, Second Madame, and Shen Yang and his husband who were resting in rooms also hurried out hearing the news.
Especially First Madame was stupefied by Shen Mo’s words. They swallowed their pride for so long, seeing the time of fruition approaching, but now what happened to this child? Why is this child so stupid, saying that in a time near success?
“How dare you talk to your grandma like this? Apologize to your grandma, hurry!” Old Madame pulled Shen Mo’s arm.
But then Shen Mo was dominated by anger, and he had been almost out of breath after retaining his feelings for so many years. Now he finally vented all out but still could not let it go. It’s impossible for him to apologize now.
“Xiao Qiang, it must be you who provoked it. I don’t even know what to say about you. You have just come home, and you made everyone in turmoil. If you do this again, I will send you abroad.” Although Shen Yang didn’t listen to what they were saying, she was sure, according to past experience, Old Madame was standing for Shen Qiang again.
Nobody knows a son better than his mother does. This kid was really a bit smart, so Old Madame liked him and cared about him a bit more. But now he had already grown up, so it’s improper to keep his tantrum.
“Xiaoyang, don’t blame Xiao Qiang. Xiao Mo is his eldest brother and he should behave like that. But he even beefed with his little brother, which was not what he should have done.” First Madame said while smiling obsequiously.
She had been bearing the aggressive manner of Shen Yang and her son in the Shen Family for long. But just as she just said, what could she do? Shen Yang, her husband and her son were all shareholders of Shen Group, whose votes were significant to Shen Mo.
So she must behave obsequiously, remaining humble and good.
“Humph!”
“Humph!”
Hearing First Madame’s words, Shen Mo and Shen Qiang were both not satisfied.
In these years, what his mother said most in front of Shen Mo was to tell him to endure, and he did as she ordered, but as a result, everyone in the family kept bullying him.
Shen Mo had had enough of this, so he didn’t need to endure anymore.
As for Shen Qiang, despite young, he’s as canny as his nickname. He had long been resentful about what First Madame did secretly, though she always talked sweet in front of them.
Her two-faced manner really taught the eldest brother, who originally had a good nature, into someone like this.
Second Madame and Qi Guoqiang, who was standing beside silently, looked at each other, understanding it’s useless to mediate casually today since there seemed to be great enmity between the two brothers.
“Xiao Qiang, you are younger, so we want to hear what you did to provoke your eldest brother first.” Qi Guoqiang knew Shen Mo somewhat. Although he was a bit narrow-minded, he still managed with things within reason. If someone was to blame, it must be his own son.
