I Want a Lifetime with You
Chapter 511 Will Of Shi Yunsheng

Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 511

How can I not recognize him? Didn't Shen Shixiu say that he was not Shi Yu? How come he is now Shi Yu? What is he here for today? If Shen Shixiu is actually Shi Yu, why did he get adopted into the Shi family, considering that the Shen family was quite wealthy?

These were the questions that fleeted through Shi Nuan's mind at the moment. She had so many doubts that needed to be cleared up, but she knew now was definitely not the right timing and place for her to throw out questions. She swallowed up her confusion and nodded. "Uncle Shixiu, it's been a while. I'm just happy to see you after such a long time."

Shen Shixiu pursed his mouth in a half-smile. He stared meaningfully at Shi Nuan and said, "Nuan, I thought you'd forgotten about me." Then, he turned to Shi Jingzheng and Jiang Yu and greeted them. Shi Jingzheng's face fell immediately upon seeing Shen Shixiu. Meanwhile, Jiang Yu's reaction was no better than his.

Shi Jingzheng thought he had finally gotten rid of the biggest opponent in his life, but to his dismay, Shi Yu had come back again. Besides, judging from Shi Yu's current way of acting, it seemed like he had turned more patronizing than before.

Instinctively, Shi Jingzheng sensed an imminent threat to himself. However, he could not comment much seeing that there were a lot of onlookers on the scene. Hence, he merely nodded in response. "When did you come back? Why didn't you come home? It has been years since Dad last saw you. He misses you a lot."

"I've been back for quite some time. I've met Dad personally." Shen Shixiu's lips curled up. "It's just that Dad thinks that it's not convenient for me to come back anymore since I've entered adulthood. That was why we didn't inform you guys."

Shi Jingzheng froze. Although Shen Shixiu did not reveal much in his words, the overtones were clear. Shen Shixiu was implying that he had a narrow mind and could not tolerate his existence. Shi Jingzheng's face contorted in frustration, but he could only swallow the bitter bullet.

Uncle Yang rushed over when he saw Shen Shixiu. "Young Master, you're here!" "Mr. Yang, it has been a while." Shen Shixiu nodded in response. "I'm sorry I wasn't here when Dad passed away. Thank you so much for staying by his side and looking after him."

"No worries!" Uncle Yang waved his hands and said, "I didn't want to bother you at first, but your name was mentioned in Master's will. That's why I took the liberty to replace you."

"It's okay."

Others might not know about Shen Shixiu's identity, but Uncle Yang was surely not one of them.

He had been working for Shi Yunsheng for many years. It was no surprise that he also knew who Shen Shixiu really was.

Shen Shixiu did not need anything from the Shi family, but Uncle Yang still went to him privately in worry that Shi Nuan might get bullied here. Fortunately, Shen Shixiu was currently still in Jiang City. This fact had set Uncle Yang's mind at ease.

"Since everyone is here, let's begin."

"Wait, Ms. Shi Wei is still not here yet." Zhang Quan glanced around and asked, "Where's Ms. Shi Wei?"

Jiang Yu's face froze. "S-Shi Wei is busy and has no time to come back. Zheng and I are her biological parents, I'm sure we can be her representatives."

Zhang Quan frowned, but he nodded nonetheless. "Although it's against our protocol, I guess I have no choice but to relent."

With that, Zhang Quan got up and opened the will. "In accordance with the will left by Mr. Shi Yunsheng, his estate will be distributed as follows. The mansion at Hanlin District will be given to the eldest son, Sh Jingzheng, and his wife, Jiang Yu.

Meanwhile, the shares allocation remained unchanged. Five percent of the shares will be given to Mr. Shi Yu while one-quarter of the shares will be given to Ms. Su Nuan. As for Old Mr. Shi's personal bank account, 5 million will be allocated to his granddaughter, Shi Wei, while the remaining will be donated to charity."

"What did you just say?" Jiang Yu and Shi Jingzheng jumped up from their seats and looked at Zhang Quan in disbelief. "Could you perhaps have made a mistake somewhere?" "Everything is done correctly in accordance with Mr. Shi Yunsheng's will. He drafted this will one year ago. The allocation of the estate was designated by Mr. Shi Yunsheng himself when he was still alert."

"How can it be!" Jiang Yu found it hard to accept. "How can the old man be this foolish and give away all his shares to the outsiders. They're not even part of the Shi family. We're the Shi family members, the ones that share the same blood with him."

Jiang Yu could not believe that Shi Yunsheng would set up a will like this. She knew Shi Yunsheng was very fond of Shi Nuan, but she did not expect he would give all of his shares to the latter.

"It must be you! You must have done something, am I right?" Jiang Yu pushed the blame on Shi Nuan. "You must have said something to the old man to cajole him into drafting this ridiculous will." Jiang Yu was shocked beyond belief that she and Shi Jingzheng only received a mansion and Shi Wei only got 5 million.

"Mrs. Shi, please stop spouting nonsense. You're defaming my integrity." Zhang Quan glared at Jiang Yu coldly. "I'm done notifying the beneficiaries about the will. As for the handover, I will discuss it with all of you as soon as possible."

"Wait." Jiang Yu grabbed Zhang Quan's hand and said, "You're with them, right? You guys must have worked together to tamper with the old man's will. How much are they paying you?" "Mrs. Shi, please show some respect!" Zhang Quan pulled away from Jiang Yu and exclaimed, "It has nothing to do with me as to why Old Master Shi has distributed his assets this way. I was hired to execute Old Master Shi's will. I'm merely carrying out my duty. Mrs. Shi, if you insult me ever again, I will sue you for defamation." "You..."

Just as Jiang Yu was about to say something, Shi Jingzheng grabbed her hand. "Mr. Zhang, can you guarantee that this will is genuine?"

"Why? Mr. Shi, you don't believe in me?" Zhang Quan pulled a long face. "If you have doubts about the authenticity of the will, you can always replace an attorney to verify the validity of the will or sue me. I don't mind meeting you at the court. My job today has finished. Please excuse me now."

With that, Zhang Quan shot Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu one last look, nodded, and left.

In fact, Shi Nuan was quite surprised when she first heard about the will. Besides those shares she received the first time, Shi Yunsheng had actually given some of the remaining shares to Fu Chengyan a couple of days ago. Shi Nuan thought that he would give the rest of the shares either to Shi Jingzheng or Shi Wei. At the end of the day, Shi Jingzheng and Shi Wei were still Shi Yunsheng's biological descendants.

Shi Nuan did not expect that Shi Yunsheng would distribute his assets to her and Shen Shixiu but left almost nothing for Shi Jingzheng and Shi Wei.

Shocked, Shi Nuan looked at Shen Shixiu with mixed emotions.

Meanwhile, Shen Shixiu was apparently calmer than Shi Nuan in contrast to the latter's surprised look. He retracted his gaze and turned to Shi Nuan. "I have no use for these shares. How about this? I will transfer my shares from Father to you after Mr. Zhang settles all the procedures."

Shi Nuan was dumbfounded once more. "This is too much, Uncle Shixiu!"

Shi Nuan was not interested in the inheritance. "Granddad left this for you. How can you give it to me?" "Silly. I have no use for this." Shen Shixiu reached his hand out and gave Shi Nuan's head a light pat. "Since Father gave this to you, you should just accept his gift. I'm pretty sure he has his own reason."

"Haha. His own reason." Jiang Yu interrupted Shen Shixiu with a sneer. "Shi Yu, you made a promise to Zheng back then that you would never come back again and you would not take anything from the Shi family."

"Indeed. I didn't come back until now. Have you seen me in the Shi residence over these years? If Father hadn't passed away, I would never have come back here. I have no interest in taking the shares anyway. I will give mine to Nuan. Do you have any problem with that?" "Yes, of course. Didn't you hear us just now? She is not part of the Shi family. She is the daughter of Su Huaibei. Who gives the right to her to take stuff from the Shi family?"

Shi Nuan's brows knitted into a frown. "Mrs. Shi, what do you mean?"

"Give back the Shi family's belongings!"

"So, you're coming after the shares that I now hold?" Shi Nuan quirked up her brows.

"Yes. Not only that, return those shares that were given to you by the old man previously." Jiang Yu glared at Shi Nuan condescendingly.

Shi Nuan found the situation hilarious. She had no interest in taking those things, but she changed her mind upon looking at Jiang Yu's hideous face.

Granddad must have known about Jiang Yu's and Shi Jingzheng's true colors. That's why he didn't give them the shares. Since this was the old man's last wish, Shi Nuan decided that she would never hand over the shares easily to Jiang Yu and Shi Jingzheng. "What if I don't want to?"

"Then don't think you can leave here today!'

Jiang Yu stared at Shi Nuan with a gloomy expression. Soon, the Shi residence was surrounded by a group of hooligans. They barged in through the doors, each holding a weapon in their hands. Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu were soon surrounded on all sides.

"Shi Nuan, if you know better, hand over the shares of Huancheng now. Otherwise, I can't guarantee your safety. Who knows what these hooligans will do to you?" A sardonic grin crept up Jiang Yu's face. Her eyes were fixed on Shi Nuan as she said, "Think about it. You're now of noble status. The heir of the Fu clan is in your belly now. You could get anything you want after you got married into the Fu clan. Why do you still want to snatch away what belongs to us?"

Shi Nuan frowned hard. She never expected Jiang Yu would behave in such an underhanded way.

Shi Jingzheng was taken aback by the hooligans' arrival as well. He turned to Jiang Yu in shock. "What're you doing? Are you mad? Why did you get these people here?"

Jiang Yu shot daggers at Shi Jingzheng. "You're such a coward. Don't tell me you want Huancheng to fall into Shi Nuan's hand? We have so many people here today. There's no need to be scared of them." She did not think that Shi Nuan and Shen Shixiu could outmatch them, especially when they were greater in numbers.

Jiang Yu had pried around and knew that Shi Nuan came here alone today. Fu Chengyan was caught up in something else and wasn't able to attend the reading of the will. That was why she dared to make such a bold move.

"Shi Nuan, the most sensible action for you right now is to hand over the shares. Otherwise, it's hard to say what will happen to you later!"
