Chapter 37: Specially Renovated the Basement for You
When Shen Yanzhou returned to his office, Yue Ping handed over a file.
“President Shen, weâve found some clues. Mr. Linâs biological family is very likely the Su family of the Vanho Group.”
“Oh?” Shen Yanzhouâs brows twitched. “The Su family?”
As he spoke, he opened the file.
Inside were household registration records, hospital birth certificates, and other documents.
There was also a photograph of the Su family head’s son, Su Jincheng.
When he saw that face, Shen Yanzhouâs peach blossom eyes narrowed.
“Twins?”
It was a face almost identical to Lin Yuanâs!
Although the Su family was considered wealthy in the Imperial Capital, they weren’t ranked very high.
Unlike the top few families who had been rooted in the Capital for generations, the Su family was relatively new.
Old Madam Su and the Old Master had started from scratch years ago in a small city, selling snacks at a roadside stall, and gradually expanded.
It was only thirty years ago that they moved from a second-tier city to the Imperial Capital.
Although they caught several business waves and grew larger, they had never quite managed to integrate into the top-tier elite circles of the Capital.
Thus, the Su family had very little presence in Shen Yanzhouâs world.
That was why he had never known of the existence of that Young Master Su.
Yue Ping said, “Yes. Back then, Madam Su gave birth to twins, but for some reason, only one child remained in the house later.”
“This matter was kept strictly secret from the public, so no one knows the specific reason.”
Shen Yanzhouâs long index finger tapped rhythmically on the desk.
“Go handle two more things.”
As he spoke, he opened a drawer and took out a small transparent plastic bag.
Inside was a single strand of hair.
He handed it to Yue Ping.
“First, go to an identification agency and do a paternity test between Lin Yuan and the Su family to confirm it.”
“Second, find a way to find out the real reason Lin Yuan was abandoned in the mountains back then.”
Yue Ping nodded. “Yes, President Shen.”
After Yue Ping left, Shen Yanzhou lit a cigarette and fell into deep thought.
Although the Su family was second-rate in his eyes, they were still a wealthy house.
The exteriors of wealthy families were always glamorous, but he knew better than anyone what kind of filthy nature lay within.
Lin Yuan had grown up in the mountains; he was pure and kind-hearted.
If he suddenly entered that environment, with the surging undercurrents inside a wealthy family, he might not necessarily be able to cope.
If the Su family had lost him by accident back then, his life might still be manageable.
But if there was some other hidden truthâif they had intentionally thrown him awayâthen what awaited him upon his return would be endless schemes and calculations.
He decided not to tell Lin Yuan about this yet.
He couldn’t let him go back to live that kind of life.
He had to clear everything up and sweep away all obstacles for him before sending him back.
His baby could only be bullied by him. No one else could touch him!
The thought of Lin Yuan made his heart tighten uncontrollably again.
That little thing was truly exhausting!
Why was he always so disobedient? Why did he always want to run away, to leave him?
Should he be even stricter with him, so he wouldn’t dare have such thoughts again, or should he take a step back as Lu Huaiyuan suggested?
Shen Yanzhouâs mind became a mess again.
Lin Yuan stayed in the hospital for three days.
During these three days, Shen Yanzhou was a man of his word; he didn’t show up once.
Lu Huaiyuan took excellent care of Lin Yuan in every aspect.
Lin Yuanâs mood improved, and his body gradually recovered as well.
On the evening of the third day, Lin Yuan had just finished some fruit and was chatting with Lu Huaiyuan.
The ward door opened, and Shen Yanzhou walked in from outside.
The moment he saw him, the smile on Lin Yuanâs face vanished.
His entire body became slightly tense.
“Ge…” He gave a low greeting.
Shen Yanzhouâs peerlessly handsome face carried a faint smile.
“Xiao Yuan, Huaiyuan says youâve recovered. Iâve come to take you home.”
Lin Yuan lowered his head.
An irrepressible panic rose in his heart.
Lu Huaiyuan stood up and said to Shen Yanzhou, “Heâs just recovered. He needs to rest quietly for a few more days after returning.”
After saying that, he lowered his voice and added, “Don’t make things hard for him.”
Shen Yanzhou nodded. “Alright.”
Shen Yanzhou handed a carry bag to Lin Yuan.
“Change your clothes. Letâs go.”
Lin Yuan slowly took off his hospital gown and changed.
He was led by the hand by Shen Yanzhou, dragging his steps as they left the ward.
After getting into the car, Shen Yanzhou didn’t speak. He helped him buckle his seatbelt and started the car, driving onto the main road.
Lin Yuan shrunk into the passenger seat, trying his best to press his body against the door side.
He lowered his breathing frequency to the minimum.
This was because he felt that the manâs current mood wasn’t quite right.
Although he maintained a warm, shallow smile on his face, there seemed to be something terrifying hidden beneath it.
As they grew closer to the villa, Lin Yuanâs small heart tightened more and more.
“Ge, regarding what happened that day… I… I know I was wrong…” He finally couldn’t take it anymore and apologized.
Shen Yanzhou gave a muffled hum. “Thereâs no rush now. Weâll talk slowly when we get back.”
This made Lin Yuan even more nervous.
He bit his lip, his expression looking quite poor.
Soon, the car reached Junting Shengshi Villa.
After parking in the courtyard, Shen Yanzhou took Lin Yuanâs hand and led him straight toward the back courtyard.
A strong sense of unease immediately rose in Lin Yuanâs heart.
“Ge… where are we going?” he asked in a small voice.
Shen Yanzhou glanced at him, his tone flat. “Weâre going to find a quiet place to have a good talk.”
Lin Yuan instinctively tried to pull back the hand being held, but it was in vain.
Shen Yanzhou felt the motion and gripped his hand even tighter.
Entering the first floor of the small building in the back courtyard, Shen Yanzhou led him down a flight of polished marble stairs and opened a door.
Lin Yuan had never been to this place before.
When he realized this was the basement, his heart trembled.
“Ge, letâs… letâs go back to the room in the front courtyard to talk, okay?” His voice was also trembling slightly.
Shen Yanzhou chuckled and shook his head.
He gestured with his chin toward the interior of the room. “I specially renovated it for you. Go in and take a look.”
When Lin Yuan walked into the basement and saw the scene inside, his face instantly turned deathly pale from fright.
The space here was very large.
Only a few orange spotlights were on, emitting a dim, soft glow.
…
…
Lin Yuan felt as though his scalp were exploding.
Extreme terror clouded his mind, and he turned around, wanting to run out.
Naturally, he was caught by Shen Yanzhouâs large hand and pulled back.
“Xiao Yuan, why are you running?” Shen Yanzhou lowered his eyes, his gaze coldly fixed on the boy’s face.
At this moment, Lin Yuan was pale, his eyes frantic like a startled fawn.
“Ge… Ge, didn’t you say you wanted to talk? We… we can’t talk here!”
His voice was thin and trembling, his face crumpling.
Shen Yanzhou sneered. “Talking here will be more effective!”
As he spoke, he gripped Lin Yuanâs shoulders and led him inside.
…
“Ge, no! Let go!” Lin Yuan tried to struggle, but he was held fast by Shen Yanzhou.
…
A haunting voice came through the dim light: “I had this custom-made just for you. Do you like it?”
