Chapter 749 Good Family Conditions

"What exactly was my sister-in-law's status back then?"

Wang Yang suddenly realized that Shen Qiang had been unaware of his mother's true identity all these years.

“All I know is that her family is very well-off. She doesn’t dare to tell her family that she is married to my older brother, because if she does, there will be no future for them. So she has been hiding her identity. Only my older brother knows her true identity.”

Wang Yang smiled. It turned out that his mother had hidden herself so well in order to be with his father, just to prevent her family from finding her.

"That's why only the two of them know this secret, so I still don't know where she is. And over the years, I haven't found anyone else searching for them like I have."

Wang Yang nodded. His aunt and uncle had been searching for him, but they were doing it very secretly, meaning Shen Qiang was in the open while they were in the shadows.

So Wang Chunfang and the others traced the clue that Shen Qiang had been investigating, but Shen Qiang was unaware that there were others searching for these people just like them.

"So, after all these years, not a single clue has been found? It's been over 20 years, hasn't it?"

Shen Qiang sighed: "Yes, over the past 20 years, I have sent countless people out. As you know, I have grown step by step. At first, I only sent one person, but in the end, I sent out hundreds of people at a time."

Wang Yang also knew that with Shen Qiang's current power, sending hundreds of people to search both domestically and internationally would not be a problem.

“I’ve searched all over the country and abroad, but I still can’t find any news about them. I keep thinking, if they’re really no longer alive, they should at least leave some trace.”

This is what puzzled Shen Qiang the most. He had almost believed that they were no longer in this world, but even if they were, there should have been traces when they escaped. It's impossible that no one knew.

"Is it possible that they simply didn't want anyone to know, so they deliberately erased those traces?"

“You’re right, but there’s a problem. When they were being hunted down, their power wasn’t what it used to be, so it was very difficult, almost impossible, for them to erase their traces. You think they couldn’t have gone back to erase their traces when they were escaping?”

Wang Yang nodded. Shen Qiang's words made sense. It seemed that he had indeed analyzed things carefully over the years.

“But Uncle Shen, if we continue searching like this, we don’t know when we’ll find him, and Shen Qing’s marriage will be delayed.”

When this issue was raised, Shen Qiang looked regretful and guilty.

“Every time I say this, I feel especially guilty towards Shen Qing. Not only did I entrust her with the heavy responsibility of the company and make her bear so much, but I also made her wait for her fiancé who is very likely no longer alive.”

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Actually, many people are pursuing Shen Qing, Uncle Shen, you should know that. Besides, if that person really comes back, it might not be of much help to your company, so it's better to..."

Before Wang Yang could finish speaking, Shen Qiang immediately interrupted him.

“Wang Yang, you’re underestimating me. I’m waiting for him to come back not because I think he’ll be of any help to the company.”

"Why is that? Actually, we've been speculating about this a lot in private, and we've discussed it many times. Your good older brother must be an outstanding person, and you all think his son will be just as excellent, but that's not necessarily true. What if his son is just an ordinary person?" Shen Qiang smiled and shook his head: "That's why I said you really underestimate me. The reason I've been waiting for him isn't because he can help our company, or because he's a capable person, but because I want to keep my promise."

“Just because he has been on the run for so long, if he becomes homeless, I must find him and give him a home, just like my older brother did for me back then.”

Wang Yang finally understood Shen Qiang's meaning. These people had always thought that Shen Qiang wanted to wait for that person to return so that he could help save the company, thus lightening the burden on Shen Qing's shoulders.

But Shen Qiang meant that he was worried the person was mediocre, or even unable to support himself and living in poverty. If he found him, he could give him a better life.

"So many people have misunderstood Uncle Shen. You are such a loyal and affectionate person."

Shen Qiang waved his hand with a smile: "I can hardly be considered loyal and righteous. My good brother is the one who is. He has helped many people, but there are also many ungrateful people. When he was being hunted down, he must have asked many people for help. I was far away in Haicheng at the time, so he couldn't ask me for help. I don't know how many people betrayed him."

As he spoke, Shen Qiang sighed. When he first met my older brother, he didn't know who his brother's friends were. They only spent some time together before Shen Qiang returned, but he would never forget the kindness shown to him during that time.

“But Uncle Shen, I know you are a very loyal and affectionate person, but you still need to think more about Shen Qing. After all, she is a girl, and we can’t keep waiting like this.”

Shen Qiang sighed: "Actually, I've already set a deadline for myself. I've always told people that he'll come back before he turns 35, so if he really doesn't come back by 35, Shen Qing can go and pursue her own happiness."

Wang Yang suddenly realized that their marriage contract didn't actually include the age limit of 35; it was something Shen Qiang had made up himself.

"Oh, I see. No wonder I heard people outside saying that your fiancé would come looking for you before you turn 35."

“I also hope that he can come back before then, so that all my efforts over the years will not have been in vain.”

Wang Yang nodded: "I also hope that Shen Qing can understand your good intentions. But I know that she has always been very sensible, it's just that the pressure from the company is making her feel a little overwhelmed."

"Actually, I've always wanted to find someone to assist her, but there are very few people she would approve of. She herself is an exceptionally capable person."

Shen Qing is indeed a strong woman with high standards for herself. So even if that person came back, she might not necessarily be interested in him. Her relationship with him is entirely based on her father's promise.

"Wang Yang, I heard you don't want to be a doctor anymore. Do you have any other plans?"

"To be honest, I haven't decided yet. I've always been a doctor, so I'm very familiar with this field. I originally planned to start a business, but I don't have any connections."

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up when he heard that Wang Yang wanted to start a business.

"If you want to do business, I can help you. After all, the Shen family has some influence in Haicheng, so doing business is a piece of cake for us."

"I know, but I may not have much talent in this area. I only have this idea for now, and I haven't thought it through yet."
