C19 Let Us Be Friends?

Lan Lingyu looked at Shen Ziang's narrowed eyes that were exactly the same as Ye Nanxuan's. She couldn't help but sigh, which alerted Shen Ziang's senses. He crashed back to reality.

"Auntie Lan?"

"Your mother is fine now, so don't worry. I'll go and buy some food. Don't just wander around. Tonight, I'll stay here and look after your mommy. Later I'll send you back home to rest. Don't be scared."

Lan Lingyu touched Shen Ziang's head, feeling a little pained in her heart.

This brat was naughty and had all kinds of tricks up his sleeve, but he was still a child after all. Seeing his mother unconscious, he couldn't help but panic. However, this was a hospital and there were diseases everywhere. Shen Mannge was sick. She would not want Shen Ziang to fall ill too.

"I'm not afraid. Auntie Lan, I'll leave my mother in your hands."

Shen Ziang bowed in the direction of Lan Lingyu.

Lan Lingyu was startled by the gesture.

"You brat, what are you doing? Your mother and I are best friends, so you can be assured that I will take care of her. You have to be careful alone at home. Lock the door from inside when you enter, okay? Don't open it no matter who it is. Call me if there's anything."

Lan Lingyu was worried about Shen Mannge and uneasy about Shen Ziang remaining at the hospital. She could only relax if Shen Ziang returned home.

Shen Ziang was lost in other thoughts, so he didn't raise any objections at the time.

He nodded and said, "I know. Auntie Lan, don't worry. I will take care of myself."

"Good boy!"

Lan Lingyu looked at Shen Mannge, who was still unconscious. She told the nurse to take care of her for the time being. She took Shen Ziang to the cafeteria to eat because she was worried that he had not eaten much.

When Shen Ziang returned home, Lan Lingyu instructed him about a few things in the house before leaving in a hurry.

The moment Lan Lingyu left, Shen Ziang turned on his computer.

He remembered that there were surveillance videos at home. If he wanted to know what had happened to his Mommy during the day, he would have to look at the camera footage.

He started the video, and saw Ye Nanxuan bullying Shen Mannge. Shen Ziang's small hands clenched tightly and his eyes turned furious.

His so-called father left them five years ago, and he was still bullying Mommy. What did he want? Why should he even bother with them?

Shen Ziang turned off the surveillance footage and quickly hacked into Hengyu Group's corporate network. He browsed their online chats and read that Shen Mannge had crossed paths with a woman called Chu Mengxi when she went to the company. Chu Mengxi had publicly intimidated her. Ye Nanxuan had been with them at the time. People in the chat said that Chu Mengxi was Ye Nanxuan's fiancee. She was the future wife of the CEO of Hengyu Group.

Shen Ziang suddenly thought about Ye Rui.

Could it be that Chu Mengxi is Ye Rui's mother?

Was she the same woman who had ruined his mother and father's marriage? Was she the one who made his mother leave?

Shen Ziang's small fist hit the table.

Damn it!

It boiled his blood to think of it.

But why did his Mommy go to the tattoo parlor?

Shen Ziang could not understand this at all. He could not tolerate others bullying his mother, especially Ye Nanxuan!

It seemed like Ye Nanxuan had still not learned his lesson from last time.

Shen Ziang's lips curled. He wanted to hack Hengyu Group's system again, but suddenly remembered that last time he was almost discovered. He thought for a moment before turning the computer off.

He took out his cell phone and searched for Ye Rui's number. He had exchanged numbers with the boy today. Shen Ziang quickly dialed it.

"Hey, who is this?"

A young boy's voice came from the other side.

Shen Ziang said coolly, "It's me, Shen Ziang."

"Ziang? You called me! Great! Do you want to spend some time with me? Let's be friends?"

Ye Rui asked him eagerly.

Because he was a part of the Ye Family, all other children treated him with respect, but no one dared to make friends with him. Only Shen Ziang, who had arrived to school today itself, had no qualms sharing his things. He had ignored Ye Rui when he tried to talk to him.

Ye Rui felt that Shen Ziang was very interesting. He insisted on being friends with Shen Ziang. However, Shen Ziang had refused. Now that he had called him, Ye Rui was overwhelmed and asked him to be his friend again.

Shen Ziang replied, "You said you're Ye Family's eldest grandson? You were bragging earlier that you are the Hengyu Group's successor. That can't be right."

"I am right! My mother said that I'm the only child in the Ye Family, and that Hengyu Group will be all mine in the future!"

Ye Rui could not help but shout when he heard Shen Ziang questioning his identity as the company's successor.

But Shen Ziang only said, "Who knows if you are bragging or not. Tomorrow is the weekend. If you really are the successor to the Hengyu Group, then let me come with you to take a walk around the company. If I see that others treat you with respect, I will believe you. Of course, if you're only showing off, you can just tell me right now."

"Fine! I'll take you to my Dad's company tomorrow. I'll be waiting for you in front of the kindergarten at eight in the morning."

Ye Rui did not want others to doubt who he was, so he immediately invited Shen Ziang.

Shen Ziang's smile widened.

"All right, it's decided then. I'll see you in the morning."

Shen Ziang smiled like a fox as he hung up the phone. His smile was at odds with his young face, for it looked rather evil. His plan had set in motion.
