Chapter 795  : He Followed Closely Like a Shadow (19)

Night had fallen.

Villa 18 was shrouded in darkness. Although the lights along the corridor turned on automatically when they drove in, they weren’t bright enough to illuminate the interior of the house.

Puzzled, Shen Zihao raised an eyebrow. The car came to a stop and Shen Liangchuan got out.

Shen Zihao could only follow.

After this, he saw Shen Liangchuan walking into the house.

Frowning, he followed behind.

When Shen Liangchuan arrived at the door, he turned to look at his younger brother and said, “My guess is that when Shen Xiu went home, he was flustered and exasperated. He must have cursed and swore that I was disobedient and disrespectful to the elders, and that I even wanted to hit him. Am I right?”

After all, they were father and son and had lived together for more than ten years. Shen Liangchuan knew his own father very well.

Shen Zihao spoke up for Shen Xiu, “No matter what, you shouldn’t hit Dad. He is elderly after all. Besides, the other day he sprained his back when you shoved him. He has been complaining of backache recently.”

Shen Liangchuan snorted coldly at these words. At the same time, he walked into the house and turned on the crystal chandelier in the living room.

The soft white light from the crystal chandelier flooded the room at once with light, making it look as though it was daytime. It also showed the sorry state that the house was in, as Shen Zihao took in this terrible sight.

He stared in disbelief at the scene with widened eyes.

The glass coffee table in the room had been shattered and glass was strewn all over the floor.

Smashed drinking glasses and vases littered the floor, among fine glass shards and powder.

The sofa set had been damaged. There was no way anyone could live in this house in such mess.

Shen Liangchuan laughed sarcastically and said, “This is what he and his men did.”

“And all because I went to pay a New Year pay to Granddad?” He took a step forward, looked at Shen Zihao and continued, “I hadn’t returned even once to the old family home after leaving the Shen family eight years ago. You yourself heard it, it was Granddad who called me and asked to see me. And what did I say during the visit? He thought that I was lusting after the Shen family’s inheritance, huh!”

Shen Zihao’s face turned red at his brother’s tone of ridicule.

Shen Liangchuan stared straight ahead as he continued speaking, “It was the festive season and the housekeepers had gone home. How do you think we could continue to live here? So that same day, we had to move to the other villa. You only worry about your father being embarrassed, but have you thought about Mom?”

“There are no security officers in the house, only three women without bodyguards. He and seven or eight other men rushed in and started to destroy everything. If it were you, what would you do?”

If someone were to do the same to him, surely he would have instructed his men to fight back.

When he thought about it, Shen Xiu had only injured his back. Then it seemed that Shen Liangchuan had been merciful.

At this thought, he frowned.

Hearsay was never the same as seeing it with one’s own eyes.

The picture that his dad had so lightly painted when he had talked about breaking a few things in the house had made him think that he had only broken a few drinking glasses. He would have never have imagined the scene he was looking at right now.

Now, Shen Zihao could no longer utter those pleas.

In a conundrum still, he saw Shen Liangchuan turning around to leave the house.

He stood among the chaotic mess in the house and sighed deeply.

Then he turned and followed his elder brother.

When Shen Liangchuan returned to Villa 8 with his brother, the three women, who were quite distractedly eating, immediately stood up. The men had returned very quickly.

Xia Yehua had a deeply concerned expression on her face, but seeing that there were no hints of a fight between the boys, she was relieved.

As she was about to speak, Shen Liangchuan took a step towards her and said, “Mom, can you show your back?”

She paused.

He took another step towards her and supported her, as he lifted the back of her blouse.
