Chapter 1811: The Eccentric Sheng Family
Dingsheng Group.
Zihan ran off as soon as he got off work, running faster than a rabbit.
Sheng Hanyu stood by the window with a gloomy face, looking out with great displeasure.
Parked at the main gate was a flashy, limited-edition red sports car, and standing beside the car was a young girl with a hot figure, blonde hair, and blue eyes.
This car had been waiting there for half an hour.
He guessed it was waiting for his good-for-nothing son, Sheng Zihan.
This was not the first time he had seen such a scene; it was basically always waiting for Sheng Zihan.
He guessed right; as Zihan walked out of the company, the girl immediately rushed up and hugged him.
The two of them soon got in the car and left.
Sheng Hanyu threw a teacup: "This rebellious son, he's getting more and more outrageous!"
"Corrupting morals, ruining the family reputation."
He was helpless against his son, but when he got home, he lost his temper at his wife.
"Your son is too out of line, are you going to manage him or not?"
Shi Youxuan asked: "Which one are you talking about?"
There were several sons in the family, and not one of them was worry-free, but asking like that was clearly a question she already knew the answer to.
Who else could it be?
Although the children were all troublesome, the one giving the most headaches lately was the youngest son, Sheng Zihan.
He had been getting more and more outrageous lately, and rumors about him were flying all over Jiangzhou, almost overshadowing Yulong's heroic deeds.
There was no helping it; heroes were meant to be admired.
And gossip... was a human instinct!
Especially gossip about the children of the wealthy and celebrities; it was even more eye-catching.
If one was both a child of the wealthy and a celebrity, they naturally carried their own traffic, and every move they made was even more attention-grabbing.
And Sheng Zihan had been acting far too excessively lately.
He went on dates with different girls almost every day, and the embarrassing part was—the girls were the ones paying for the dates!
Now it had gotten even worse; he was even charging an appearance fee.
Shi Youxuan advised her husband: "Don't be angry, I'll lecture him when he gets back."
In truth, she didn't have much confidence either; she had spoken to Zihan not once or twice, but every time he had some excuse to brush her off.
They waited until midnight.
Zihan finally returned.
He pushed the door open and entered the hall, just about to head toward his room, when he was startled by a sinister voice.
"You're back—"
The tail of the note was drawn out, quite chilling.
Zihan had never expected that there would still be someone in the living room at this hour!
The family should have been asleep long ago, so how could there still be someone?
"Who?" His voice trembled.
"Me—hey, can you not even recognize my voice?"
He recognized it; it was his mother's voice.
"Oh! Scaring people to death is a real thing, Mom, why are you sitting here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
His mother stood up from the sofa and asked righteously: "Did you do something shameful? If you didn't do anything shameful, what are you afraid of?"
"Mom, my dear mother, can you turn off the flashlight? You can't do this."
Shi Youxuan was wearing a snow-white pajama set, her long hair draped behind her shoulders, and her face was deathly pale.
Her complexion was pale because she had a facial mask on, and she hadn't turned on the lights, using the flashlight to shine up at her own chin, making her look like a ghost.
"If you didn't do anything shameful, what are you afraid of?"
She didn't turn off the flashlight function and continued to speak in a sinister voice.
Zihan had been timid since he was a child; he had been scared out of his wits by his mother just now, so he quickly turned on the light, and it finally wasn't so chilling anymore.
"Why turn on the light? It disturbs others' rest, turn it off." His mother said with displeasure.
Zihan had been obedient since he was a child, but this time he couldn't listen to her no matter what; turn it off? Why would he turn it off?
If the light was off, his soul would be gone.
"No, I can't take it if you scare me, I'm timid."
"You don't even want to listen to me anymore, is that it?"
"Go to the Study."
Zihan obediently followed his mother to the Study; as long as she didn't dress up as a ghost to scare him, he could agree to other conditions.
But he had rejoiced a little too early.
The lighting in the Study was very bright, but his mother's attire was still quite chilling.
It wasn't just that her attire was chilling; she seemed to feel it wasn't enough and even demanded to play some music!
"I'll play some music to relax my nerves, you don't mind, do you?"
Before Zihan could express his opinion, the music was already playing.
It was the theme song from the famous TV series "Strange Tales of Liaozhai".
As soon as that music started, Zihan wanted to bolt out the door.
But Shi Youxuan had been prepared; the door was already locked, and she was blocking the entrance, leaving Zihan with nowhere to escape.
Sheng Zihan made a bitter face and bowed with cupped hands to beg for mercy: "Mom, Mother dear, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong, please spare me... No, you can hit or scold me all you want, just don't torture me in this way... No, educate me, I really know I was wrong!"
Sheng Zihan was incoherent, and by the end, he was almost crying.
"Where were you wrong?"
His mother's tone was still as sinister as before, and Sheng Zihan was scared to death.
"I shouldn't change girlfriends so frequently, I will definitely change, I definitely will!"
"Words are not proof, sign here."
Shi Youxuan seemed to perform magic; she took a piece of paper from her bosom and shoved a Hallucinogenic Pen into her son's hand, telling him to sign.
She had been prepared long ago, coming fully equipped.
"You can't do this, dating is a personal freedom, I am an adult now..."
Although he was very afraid, he still maintained a final shred of "sobriety" and was unwilling to sign.
The Sheng Family house rules advocated for liberal education; as long as the children were not breaking the law after reaching adulthood, the parents could not interfere with their freedom.
This was also the reason why Sheng Hanyu was so angry and couldn't stand the way Sheng Zihan dated, yet still couldn't interfere!
But he hadn't expected that his mother would actually use such a method to manage him.
It was too unscrupulous... No, she had too many ways.
Shi Youxuan continued to threaten him; if Sheng Zihan didn't sign, that was fine too, but she would go to his room to tell ghost stories, every day.
Sheng Zihan signed the paper then and there, unwillingly, and only then did he return to his room.
Shi Youxuan returned to the room, and Sheng Hanyu was not yet asleep.
He asked his wife: "How did your talk with him go?"
His wife triumphantly took out the paper Sheng Zihan had just signed and placed it in front of him: "See for yourself, he agreed to change."
"Is this thing of yours useful?" Sheng Hanyu was skeptical.
Shi Youxuan said: "It's useful for a short time, but useless for a long time. Haven't you heard that it is easier to change rivers and mountains than a person's nature?"
Sheng Hanyu:...
Since she knew it was useless, why did she still do it?
Shi Youxuan said: "It's fine if it's useful for a short time, it saves you from being angered to death all at once."
Sheng Hanyu:...
Did his wife mean that she was going to torture him for a lifetime?
Sheng Zihan was indeed well-behaved for a week.
Every day, he went out to work just like his father, and they returned together in the evening.
He never went out on dates with messy girls again.
However, one week later.
He wanted to move out to live on his own.
"Mom, Dad, I am an adult now, I want to move out and live by myself."
"You are so stingy, you'll have to pay rent if you move out, and the rent for a good place isn't cheap." His mother hit the nail on the head.
"You don't need to worry about that."
"I bought an Apartment in Zuoyuan; the property there won't depreciate, and I can wait for it to appreciate before selling it."
