Stand-in Exit, Tycoon Boss Anxious Crazy-Chapter 71 – Happy New Year’s Eve
The Shen family was bustling with rare excitement today.
On New Year's Eve, the entire family returned to the old house for a reunion dinner.
Old Mr. Shen was particularly happy today. "It's rare for everyone to come back. Let's have a reunion dinner. Now that I'm old, I don't have many expectations, just hoping to see my children and grandchildren all around."
Old Mr. Shen had two sons and a daughter: the eldest son Shen Congyan, the second daughter Shen Meng, and the youngest son Shen Chun.
Shen Congyan, being the eldest, had once been the hope of Old Mr. Shen, who wanted to groom him as his successor. Shen Meng married early through an arranged marriage, and Shen Chun had no ambition, preferring to dabble in the arts.
However, Shen Congyan, despite his ambition, lacked the ability and often caused more harm than good, ruining several important projects. It was then that Old Mr. Shen began to look among his grandchildren for a new successor.
And it was at that time that Shen Yanshi caught his eye.
"As long as Dad is happy! If you like, we'll come back often to visit you." Shen Meng always had a sweet tongue.
Shen Meng's two children also sensibly chimed in, "We'll come back often to take care of Grandpa!"
Old Mr. Shen nodded with a smile, "Good, good."
Zhu Hongyu smiled and said, "When Dad has great-grandchildren, New Year's Eve will be even more lively."
"Then Jun and Yanshi should hurry up and start families. I'm getting old and don't know how much longer I can wait. At least let me hold a great-grandchild."
Shen Jun smiled and said, "Mom and Dad are already helping me find a match. I'll strive to get married next year and fulfill Grandpa's wish."
Zhu Hongyu immediately said, "Jun is really sensible. Even though he's busy with business, he never messes around with dubious women outside, and he's not even concerned about marriage. A few days ago, I told him that his grandfather is getting old and he should at least let him hold a great-grandchild. Jun immediately said to let me handle it and arrange it for him."
Old Mr. Shen stroked his beard and nodded, "Jun is sensible."
Old Mr. Shen glanced at Shen Yanshi, who was sitting to his right, and his face darkened. "You should also find a proper person to marry soon. Stop being so unreliable. You're already twenty-eight. At your age, your father could already walk!"
Shen Yanshi glanced at Zhu Hongyu and responded lazily, "Hmm."

Shen Congyan got angry at his perfunctory attitude and put down his chopsticks to scold him.
"When will you be as sensible as your brother? You never consider the elders and always go against us! You made a scandal with a little star that everyone knows about, and you ruined the marriage with Zhao Jing! You're the only one who can make your grandfather angry."
Shen Yanshi sneered, "Dad, your memory isn't great, is it? Last time, second brother almost messed up the Hongrui City project, breaking the funding chain and nearly losing billions. Grandpa was furious."

"You!"
Shen Jun's face changed, and he glanced awkwardly at Old Mr. Shen.
Old Mr. Shen's face darkened as he slammed his chopsticks on the table. "Enough! Even a reunion dinner can turn into a battlefield. Are you all afraid that I'll be too happy and wish for my death?"
The room fell into a dead silence.
It wasn't until Zhu Hongyu awkwardly laughed and tried to smooth things over, and Shen Meng quickly had her two children lighten the mood, that the atmosphere slightly improved.
Shen Yanshi found it extremely boring.
A group of people with their own agendas forced to sit at the same table for a reunion dinner.
His phone buzzed, and he opened WeChat to see a message pop up in his pinned conversation.
"Happy New Year's Eve."
He raised an eyebrow slightly and smiled faintly.
He put away his phone, stood up, and said, "Something urgent came up at the company. I need to go handle it. I'll leave first."
Shen Congyan angrily said, "What's so urgent during the New Year?"
Shen Yanshi smiled lightly, "They said there's a problem with the Hongrui City project. I'm going to check it out to avoid another mess like last time."
Shen Congyan was choked with anger, and Shen Jun's face turned extremely ugly.
Old Mr. Shen waved his hand, too tired to say more. "Fine, fine, you go."
Shen Yanshi nodded slightly, grabbed his coat, and opened the door to leave.
