Chapter 415: Ask the girl what she wants?
"Feng Mu, make me a bowl of knife-cut noodles."
Shen Rang and Shen Jiao returned to Dongyuan one after another. As soon as Feng Ma came out of the room, she heard Shen Rang's rough shouting.
Shen Jiao kicked off her high heels and lazily lay down on the sofa, "If you want to eat, go back to your courtyard."
Shen Rang pretended not to hear and added, "Add two eggs."
Aunt Feng agreed with a smile and turned to look at Shen Jiao, "Miss, would you like to eat something too?"
Shen Rang poured himself a cup of hot tea and said, "Eat something. You didn't eat a single bite of dinner just now."
Shen Jiao pinched her brows and shook her head, "I can't eat it."
Mother Feng didn't say anything else and turned to go to the kitchen to prepare something.
Seeing this, Shen Rang stood up and poured her a cup of hot tea. "What's wrong? Are you still worried about Shanshan and Sui'er?"
Shen Jiao paused, raised her eyes coldly, and said, "There must be a traitor in the Shen family."
Shen Rang's expression changed. Without saying anything, he lowered his head and pushed the teacup in front of Shen Jiao.
Shen Jiao frowned and tilted her head to look at Shen Rang. "Any clues about the sniper who ambushed the China World Trade Center two years ago?"
Shen Rang shook his head. "The Dark Hall has been investigating for two years, and they've only found the body of a foreign male. They're clearly wary of us."
After hearing this, Shen Jiao's eyes were filled with disappointment. "Even the Dark Hall can't find any information. Could it be that it's really so close?"
Shen Rang lowered his head and drank his tea. "It's no use thinking too much now. I've discussed it with the old man and dispatched a team of secret guards from the Dark Hall to protect Shanshan and Sui'er's safety at all times."
Shen Jiao's expression eased slightly.
After a while, Aunt Feng came in with a bowl of fragrant mutton sliced noodles.
Shen Rang had been hungry all night and had no resistance to the delicious food. He ate up all the noodles and soup in no time.
Shen Jiao looked disgusted and said, "Don't dirty my cashmere carpet."
Shen Rang didn't care. He stood up and laughed. "You're rich now, and you still bother me with this? By the way, I came here today to discuss with you. The F Country Coalition Government has been dissolved. Now the local military government of Jiji Island is in charge of the F Country government. We previously secretly assisted the local government in seizing power and sponsored them with a lot of arms. Commander Jiji agreed to sell us the F Country Main Mountain Mining Area and the Black Triangle's ruling area."
Shen Jiao waved her hand. "I don't care about these things. If you want money, bring me the general ledger. If the amount is not large, I will transfer it to you first."
Shen Rang nodded, "Okay. I'll come find you later."
After finishing the important matters, Shen Rang comforted Shen Jiao a few more words. Shen Jiao thought he was nagging and directly drove him out.
Aunt Feng went into the living room to clear the dishes.
Shen Jiao stood up and sat up. "Auntie Feng, have someone check what Fifth Brother has been doing recently?"
Feng Ma's eyes were filled with shock. After she came to her senses, she immediately turned around and closed the main hall door. "Miss, do you suspect the young master?"
Shen Jiao didn't hesitate at all at this moment, and said coldly, "No! I suspect everyone in the Shen family. But... I'll start with the fifth brother."
Feng Ma felt a little reluctant. Madam Li had given her a new life. Shen Che and Shen Rang were both Madam Li's sons. Feng Ma naturally didn't want to see them turn against each other.
Shen Jiao sighed softly, "For so many years, Fifth Brother and I have shared weal and woe, and we share the same interests. He knows best how much wealth I have."
"I really don't want to suspect my own brothers of the worst, but the current situation doesn't allow me to hesitate. Shanshan and Suir's lives cannot be affected by any change. If I can't protect them, what's the point of keeping mountains of gold and silver?"
"Find out Fifth Brother's innocence. If I have wronged him, he can beat me or scold me as he pleases. If I have really misjudged him, I cannot make the same mistake again."
Mother Feng lowered her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Yes."

At this time, the atmosphere in the main hall was no longer as cold as before. Shen Zhuang looked at his three little granddaughters with a smile on his face.
"You were frightened by what happened at the villa. To express my apology, I will agree to one request of yours. You can have whatever you want."
Fu Suier was overjoyed. "Really? Grandpa, I want to participate in the Youth Cup held by the Whale Harbor government. My mother won't let me sign up. Can you sign me up?"
The Youth Cup is a gathering of outstanding young people organized by the Whale Harbor government. Every year, the government invites talented people from all walks of life to guide the public to reflect on and explore various social phenomena through debates and speeches.
Fu Suier had previously told Shen Jiao that he wanted to participate, but Shen Jiao refused all of Fu Suier's social activities for safety reasons.
This request was unexpected. Shen Zhuang pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, Grandpa will sign you up."
In the past few years, Fu Suier has grown up happily. Among her three granddaughters, she is the only one who chose a military and political school. You must know that once you enter this threshold, your career in officialdom is basically determined.
Before this, Shen Zhuang had never thought of handing power to a girl, but when he saw Fu Sui'er reaching the peak step by step, he finally realized that he was narrow-minded.
Shen Mianzhi hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to say, "Grandpa, I want to learn shooting and free fighting."
"What to learn?" Shen Zhuang suddenly felt a little regretful that he had just said so much.
Shen Mianzhi, "If possible, I would also like to be a branch hall master."
Shen Zhuang, “…”
Two years ago, Shen Mianzhi asked him for a fair chance to compete. She originally thought that this child would give up after coming into contact with the Dark Hall, but she didn't expect that she was not only not afraid, but also became more and more courageous.
Shen Zhuang frowned, "Learning skills and becoming a branch hall master are two different things. You can only choose one."
Shen Mianzhi thought about it, his eyes wandering for a moment, "Then I'd better become a branch hall master. If I become a branch hall master, I must learn some skills."
"..." Shen Zhuang was at a loss for words and turned to look at Jiang Huashan. "Xiao Hua'er, what about you? Don't say anything that will embarrass Grandpa again."
Jiang Huashan grinned and said, "I don't want anything, I just want Grandpa to be safe and healthy."
