Sit at the wrong table on a blind date, get married to the heir of a billionaire family

After being pulled away by the middle-aged elders and questioned, Wenwen returned to the dining table.

She lowered her head and sat next to the boss. Shen Tulong asked:

"What did they tell you?"

Wen Wen's face flashed with embarrassment, and she quietly reminded her boss:

"They are very worried about your marriage. They want... they want to solve it for you as soon as possible."

Unexpectedly, Shen Tulong's face was very calm.

"Help me solve it as soon as possible?"

He snorted coldly.

Wen Wen half covered his ear with her hand and reminded him, "What they mean is... they want to introduce you to someone to marry right away!"

Shen Tulong hummed indifferently.

It's not just the first or second time, he's already used to it.

Shen Tulong knew clearly that these aunts and uncles in his hometown just wanted to force their relatives' daughters into his hands to be Mrs. Shen.

"They think I can do whatever they want me to do."

How ridiculous!

Wen Wen took a look at Shen Tulong's calm and resolute profile, and actually felt a little sympathy for him.

It turns out that even a boss as powerful as him would have such trivial troubles.

Shen Tulong told Wen Wen: "Don't worry about me, eat first."

"Stay in the old house tonight and help clean the ancestral hall tomorrow."

This time when Shen Tulong came back, in addition to participating in the worship ceremony, he also participated in the most important part, donation.

The original ancestral hall was too old, so my third uncle advocated renovating it.

As the most successful person here, Shen Tulong naturally has to set an example in terms of donations.

In addition to rebuilding a new ancestral hall, we also need to repair family genealogies and the like.

Shen Tulong plans to contribute around 100 million to 200 million. He hasn’t figured out the details yet, but it won’t be more!

This amount of money is just a drizzle for him, not a lot of money.

Since he grew up here, he is well aware of the bad nature of his relatives. No matter how much he gives, these elders will not be grateful and think that it is what Shen Tulong deserves.

Who made him such a big boss now!

If you don’t spend enough, they will gossip about you!

If you spend too much, someone will definitely pocket the money!

After comprehensive consideration, one million or two million is just right, neither more nor less.

It would be both prestigious to go and avoid gossip. If there is any surplus money, it is not impossible to give it to the third uncle as the village's public funds.

Wenwen had never eaten such a lively meal.

There were all kinds of talk at the dinner table, and the elders were all laughing happier than each other.

Everyone sighed with compliments like "Tu Long is really promising" and "Being a big boss is different!"

She listened to Shen Tulong's words and kept her head down eating so that she could work tomorrow morning.

After the meal, there were complicated greetings.

Shen Tulong took Wenwen back to the old house where he grew up.

The old house was renovated several times a few years ago and is now a relatively retro house.

The bricks and tiles used inside are of the best quality, and even the blue bricks in the yard are arranged in an ancient and exquisite manner.

You can tell at a glance that no one lives here permanently.

Wen Wen couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Shen, you rarely come back, right?"

Shen Tulong stepped into the yard, and wherever his eyes looked, they were filled with memories.

“Sometimes I come back once a year, sometimes only once every few years.”

Wen Wen looked at the furnishings in the yard and said, "But this house is kept very clean. Is there someone taking care of it?"

"Well, I pay for it to be cleaned regularly."

Wenwen: Oh, it’s true!

"Did you grow up here as a child? I'm so lucky! This yard is just like in TV dramas, spacious and artistic!"

The entire courtyard is beautifully maintained, and every flower and plant looks like it came out of a painting.

Shen Tulong walked into the center of the yard and smiled faintly.

“These were all redesigned later.”

He spoke softly, "This yard used to be very shabby. We didn't even have a washing machine at home, just a large water tank. In the middle of winter, my mother would often squat in the yard to wash clothes... At that time, she was the only one who supported the family. I often helped her wring out the clothes, wipe the table and sweep the floor."

Wenwen never expected that behind her boss's glorious life, there was such a miserable childhood.

She blurted out subconsciously: "Where's your father?"

As soon as the question was asked, Shen Tulong's face instantly turned cold. It was obvious that he was very resistant to this question.

His father is the man that Shen Tulong has hated extremely since he was a child.

Wen Wen realized that she had said too much and quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry! I think I asked a question I shouldn't have asked. It involves privacy. If you are not in a position to answer, forget it."

Shen Tulong was silent.

In the past, whenever someone asked about his father, he would resist.

But today, he has let go of many things, and it makes no difference whether he says it or not.

"Speaking of my father, I rarely saw him since I was a child. While my mother and I were struggling to survive, he had already started a new family with his mistress and was living a luxurious life in the big city."

Wen Wen was speechless. She didn't expect this to be the answer.

Although Shen Tulong looked calm when he talked about this, as if he was telling someone else's story.

But Wenwen could imagine that such a strong man must have suffered a lot in his childhood due to the lack of his father's companionship and support! This journey was indeed not easy.

Shen Tulong walked forward and checked every brick and tile of the renovated house.

"Later, as soon as I earned some money, I renovated this yard from top to bottom. I added all sorts of automated appliances, and from then on, washing clothes and cooking were no longer such a chore... Unfortunately, it was too late by then."

"Mom was in the late stages of cancer. She didn't even have the chance to see the new house I built before she passed away on her hospital bed."

When Wen Wen heard this, she felt a huge sense of guilt.

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't have asked that... It brought back sad memories for you. Blame me for not being able to speak."

Shen Tulong smiled faintly:

"What does it have to do with you? Even if you don't ask, these things exist objectively - they weren't caused by you."
