Chapter 360: Borrowing Strength
Shen Zhuo sighed deeply, and his voice softened a little when facing his daughter.
"Nian'er, I understand your concerns. The reason why I hesitate is precisely because I have considered all this. Cooperation with Lin Yeken is indeed full of uncertainties, and we, the Shen family, must remain vigilant."
Shen Nian's mother had been listening to the conversation quietly, and now she gently interrupted.
"Nian Nian, your dad is right about this..."
Shen Zhuo nodded, his eyes turned to the window, the wisdom of the decision-maker flashing in his eyes.
"I will put the interests of the Shen family first. If the cooperation with Lin Yeken is really carried out, I will ensure that it only benefits the Shen family and does no harm."
Shen Nian's eyes became deep in an instant, and her mind seemed to drift in another direction.
She thought of Jiang Yuzhu, an existence that she had always been unable to ignore.
Shen Nian's heart was full of jealousy, and Jiang Yuzhu's position in Pei Jingchuan's heart made her unhappy.
Her eyes gradually revealed a hint of conspiracy.
"Dad, since Lin Ye is willing to propose cooperation, we may be able to take advantage of this opportunity." Shen Nian's voice had a hint of cunning, and her eyes flashed with complicated emotions.
"Perhaps we can use Lin Yeken's help to solve Jiang Yuzhu's obstacle."
Shen Zhuo's face turned serious in an instant, and his eyes flashed with anger.
He stood up and spoke in a low voice. "Nian'er, your current thoughts make me very disappointed. The Shen family will never use such despicable means to achieve their goals. Jiang Yuzhu is innocent, and we cannot hurt her because of personal jealousy. You should leave now and be well. Think about your actions.”
Shen Nian's face turned pale due to her father's rebuke, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.
As a typical eldest lady, she was not used to being criticized so harshly.
She stood up, a defiant look on her face.
"Okay, Dad, if you think I'm wrong, then I'm leaving."
Shen Nian's voice was filled with obvious dissatisfaction. She turned and walked towards her room with fast and powerful steps.
Shen Zhuo and his wife looked at each other, helplessness in their eyes.
After her daughter left, Shen Nian's mother quietly expressed her opinion to Shen Zhuo.
"Although Nian'er's method is too extreme, her concerns may have some validity. We can indeed consider cooperating with Lin Ye, but we must be very cautious to ensure that it will not have any negative impact on Shen."
Shen Zhuo's brows wrinkled slightly, his eyes revealing deep thoughts.
"You mean, we can have some secret cooperation with Lin Yeken without revealing our identity?"
Shen Nian's mother nodded, her voice low.
"Yes. If we can remain cautious enough, even cooperation with Lin Yeken can ensure our safety. In this way, even if the Pei family discovers something, it cannot be traced directly to us."
Shen Zhuo stood in front of the window, looking through the night, immersed in his own thoughts.
His heart was indeed full of contradictions.
For many years, although Shen's position in Linchuan's business community was prominent, he had been suppressed by the Pei family to some extent, which inevitably made him feel a little unfair.
After some deep thought, Shen Zhuo finally slowly turned around and faced his wife, with a light of determination in his eyes.
"You are right. We can indeed consider some covert cooperation with Lin Yeken, but we must be extremely cautious to ensure that all actions will not reveal our identity."
Shen Zhuo continued: "In the past few years, our Shen family has indeed been under the influence of the Pei family. If we can slightly change this situation through this cooperation, it may be helpful to our future development. But We must remember that at all times, the interests and reputation of the family are paramount."
After hearing this, Shen Nian's mother showed an expression of relief, but also some worry.
"I understand your decision, and as long as we can remain cautious, I believe this cooperation will be beneficial to us. But we must also be careful to avoid any possible risks."
On the other side, Pei Jingchuan and Gu Qiyang made an appointment to meet in a private room of a high-end club.
This club is famous for its luxury and is a meeting place for many celebrities in the city.
The interior of the private room is luxuriously and elegantly decorated, with soft lighting reflecting exquisite furniture and artwork, creating a comfortable and private atmosphere.
The air is filled with soft music and the aroma of high-end red wine, giving people a sense of tranquility and relaxation.
Pei Jingchuan is sitting on the sofa, his posture is elegant and calm, and his eyes are deep, revealing his calmness and calmness as a business leader.
Although he looked cold on the outside, in his heart he was carefully considering his next strategy and actions.
Gu Qiyang is completely different, with a casual attitude, but at the same time he is smart and astute.
He sat opposite Pei Jingchuan, holding a wine glass in one hand and tapping the table gently with the other.
In the warm atmosphere of the club's private room, Gu Qiyang put down his wine glass with a hint of concern in his eyes.
He looked at Pei Jingchuan with a hint of seriousness in his tone.
"Jingchuan, after Pei Shangde's suicide, do we need to make some proper arrangements for his family? They should be abroad now."
Pei Jingchuan took a deep breath, his eyes showing a hint of complicated emotions.
He said slowly: "Qiyang, I have arranged manpower to ensure that Pei Shangde's family is properly taken care of abroad. At present, letting them stay abroad is the best choice. They can have a calmer life there. Environment, away from the strife and stress here.”
Gu Qiyang nodded, with a hint of approval in his eyes.
"It's good to do that. At least, they can get some peace over there."
Pei Jingchuan's eyes were calm and far-reaching, as if he was thinking about bigger things.
"Every decision may affect the fate of many people. As a member of the Pei family, even if it is a tragedy like Pei Shangde, we must take responsibility and ensure that his family receives the care they deserve."
In the bustling city center of Linchuan, Pei Yanqing and Mengling walked into a high-end shopping mall.
The mall has luxurious decorations, soft lighting, and a dazzling array of counters of various high-end brands, attracting customers.
Pei Yanqing was dressed casually and appropriately, and his expression was full of expectation.
Meng Ling is dressed simply and elegantly. She has a gentle temperament and a gentle smile.
The two of them were walking in the central hall of the mall, and the lively scene around them was in sharp contrast to the shopping crowd.
Pei Yanqing asked Mengling softly: "Mengling, what kind of things do your parents like?"
When Meng Ling heard Pei Yanqing's words, she seemed a little confused for a moment.
She stopped and turned to him, uncertainty flickering in her eyes.
"Yan Qing, you mean... you want to see my parents?"
