Chapter 490: A Conspiracy Emerges
Wenzhou Chen looked at the woman sobbing in his arms; in reality, he had always been annoyed by Chen Lingmeng’s entitled attitude, which Grandpa Chen had nurtured as naïve and innocent.
And Chen Lingmeng, being the adult she was, still lacked any real sense of proportion in her actions. She only knew what she wanted and what she didn’t, and every time she caused trouble, the mess was left for Wenzhou to clean up, even though he was already very busy with the affairs of the Chen Group.
Yet, whenever Chen Lingmeng got into trouble, he had to put aside the company’s business to deal with her array of chaotic issues, so often just thinking about Chen Lingmeng gave him a headache.
But he couldn’t show his impatience with Chen Lingmeng because Grandpa Chen still controlled the major power of the Chen Group and had already made his will.
Grandpa Chen had once shown Wenzhou his will; he would give Wenzhou ten percentage points of the shares, but the remaining nineteen percent went to Chen Lingmeng, indicating, without a doubt, that the future owner of the Chen Group would be Chen Lingmeng.
Therefore, even though Chen Lingmeng was a hopeless romantic, he had no choice but to play along with her, not to mention that Grandpa Chen had promised Wenzhou that if he took good care of Chen Lingmeng, he could inherit half of Grandpa Chen’s personal shares.
Wenzhou gently ruffled Chen Lingmeng’s hair; she cried sadly, her tears dampening the front of his shirt.
"Mengmeng, don’t cry. If you keep crying, your eyes will swell, and you won’t look pretty tomorrow. Didn’t brother promise you? I will definitely find a way to thoroughly investigate Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu and make sure they never meet again in this lifetime."
Hearing Wenzhou’s voice, Chen Lingmeng was as if soothed by a magic potion, and finally managed to sniff her sour nose.
She lifted her head with tear-blurred eyes and asked in a childish tone, "Brother, are you telling the truth? But how can you completely separate the two of them when Pei Yansi is so hopelessly in love with Shen Heyu?"
