Chapter 37

Shen Yichen frowned as he looked at the bullet screen comments.

Early love relationship?

With who?

That Dong Nuo?

In the past few days' programs, the way Dong Nuo looked at Shen Yue was indeed strange. What is Shen Shuangyi doing? Are he just going to let those two be so close right under his nose?

Or could it be Shang Junyu? Shang Junyu is quite good-looking, it's easy for a young girl like Shen Yue to be tempted.

But 16 years old going after a 12 year old...

Shen Yichen started thinking about calling Shang Siyin to get her to better supervise her younger brother, tell him not to casually seduce underage girls.

Just as Shen Yichen was watching the bullet screen comments and mentally twisting Shang Junyu and Dong Nuo into a knot hundreds of times, his assistant finally explained the situation clearly.

Turns out the early love interest was not Dong Nuo or Shang Junyu, but Shang Junyu.

Shang Junyu huh, then that's fine.

After the incident with Shen Yue, Shen Yichen had already thoroughly investigated the "love-hate relationship" between Shang Junyu and Shen Yue. This matter, it's not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either.

It started because Shen Yue's irresponsible parents took her to an amusement park to play before, but got too caught up in their fun and forgot about Shen Yue.

Shen Yue wandered the amusement park alone and met Shang Junyu, who took her to the help station, preventing things from getting out of hand.

Up to this point, the two's encounter was still very normal, but Shen Yue, whether because she lacked love since young or was too lonely, after meeting Shang Junyu, she dove right in, wanting to stick to Shang Junyu every moment.

If she didn't see Shang Junyu for a long time, her complexion would turn very poor, she wouldn't even eat, very similar to some kind of withdrawal.

The family couldn't stand to keep watching, so they communicated with the Shang family, hoping they could get Shang Junyu to accompany Shen Yue more, and the Shen family would show its thanks to the Shang family to some degree.

The Shen family could provide a lot of help to the Shang family, they naturally wouldn't give up this golden opportunity.

Although the process sounded like they were selling their son, as long as the result was good, neither family would mind.

With Shang Junyu's company, Shen Yue did indeed seem much better.

She had a smile on her face every day, didn't cause any trouble at home, which made Shen Yue's parents who already liked enjoying their couple time even less inclined to manage Shen Yue. They just thanked the Shang family for their efforts for Shen Yue's sake, and the Shen family would periodically give the Shang family something. Until recently, when Shen Yue being bullied was exposed, those irresponsible parents finally realized what they had done.

Over these years, with huge amounts of money, they had raised someone who abused their own daughter.

In others' eyes, Shen Yue's reliance on Shang Junyu might be called liking, called budding feelings, called puppy love, but in Shen Yichen's eyes, Shen Yue's emotions weren't that shallow.

If you had to put it to words, it was a place to put her feelings.

A salvation she sought for emotions she didn't know where to place.

Shen Yichen understood this feeling very clearly.

He was his parents' first child, the first child they raised without any experience.

Maybe because they lacked experience, his parents were very attentive to him at that time, unlike now when they washed their hands of everything.

But he didn't need this attentiveness.

He knew from a very young age the inheritance system of the Shen family - the capable inherit.

He followed his father, watching him handle the company's affairs every day, and grew greatly interested in inheriting this behemoth in the future.

Coincidentally, he was also very talented.

"Yichen, you calculated this?"

That day, when his father excitedly held the financial statements he had prepared, still immature but already showing his brilliance, and said to him that he would definitely become the next heir of the group.

Then, Shen Yichen dove right in, and by the time he came to his senses, his parents had completely let go of him.

"We don't worry about Yichen at all, he can do anything well, if you go find him he'll think you're annoying instead."

"Yichen is very capable, anything we give to him to do he'll definitely do well, sigh, but this child is becoming harder and harder to approach."

He had become the child of someone else's family in others' mouths, and also lost the right to be cared for.

He thought he was the only one like this in the family, until that time, when his two younger twin brothers who were two years younger found him, their eyes filled with disgust.

Especially Shen Shuangyi, who cried and wailed, "I hate you! Hate you! Why are you so good at everything! Why am I not as capable as you!"

It turns out, because he was too outstanding, his parents thought there was no way the ordinary Shen Shuangyi and the quiet Shen Shuangchen could surpass him, so they lost interest in cultivating them, just letting the twins do whatever they wanted every day, only caring about their own happiness.

Shen Shuangyi and Shen Shuangchen were the Shen family's children, but it didn't matter if they weren't.

Shen Yichen saw the loneliness in the twins' eyes, the same as his own loneliness.

"Big brother, should we have not been born then? The Shen family only needs you alone anyway."

That day, Shen Shuangyi's words reminded him that he was the big brother, Shen Shuangyi and Shen Shuangchen's brother. The feelings Shen Shuangyi desired but never had, perhaps, he could make up for them.

After all, he also knew the feeling of loneliness.

After that, that unrestrained couple gave birth to two more younger brothers. As expected, these two younger brothers were also raised poorly.

One, although smart, was extremely sensitive, unwilling to interact with others, shutting himself away.

The other, although showing extreme talent in medicine, had antisocial personality disorder, and would cause huge trouble if you didn't pay attention.

At that time Shen Yichen was only 15, but had the mind of a 30 year old.

He also had a younger sister.

His younger sister was different from them. From birth she had received all of their parents' love, received the thing the five of them had desperately desired but found hard to obtain. So at home, besides their parents, the five of them didn't like Shen Yue.

Whenever Shen Yichen returned home he would intentionally avoid places Shen Yue was.

Seeing his parents fussing around Shen Yue, he felt he didn't belong.

But his parents' novelty with Shen Yue only lasted less than five years. After he truly took over the company, with his father having no more worries, he spent all day lovey-dovey with his mother, naturally he had no mind to manage Shen Yue either.

When Shen Yichen returned home again, he saw the familiar loneliness on Shen Yue's face.

And the smugness on the other brats' faces.

Shen Yichen himself didn't have much feeling about it, but he also didn't want to manage Shen Yue like he did the other brats.

Because Shen Yue was afraid of him.

Just leave it be.

But that day after Shen Yue fell into the water, whether because she still wasn't clear-headed, she actually overcame her fear and approached him.

He had intended to ignore her, just wanting to quickly complete his task and leave, but Shen Yue asked him,

"Big brother, what did you eat today?"

In that moment, Shen Yichen was stunned.

How long has it been since someone asked him this?

In the outside world he was passed off as omnipotent, but no one knew that even he would be tired after continuously working for three days.

If he didn't eat, his stomach would hurt too.

Something he hadn't had for so long, once he came into contact with it again he became extremely greedy for it.

Whether it was him or Shen Yue.

This was the road the Shen family members were fated to walk.
