After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 298 Meeting Zhang Shen

Ever since those incidents happened, Zhang Shen has been housed in a separate courtyard belonging to the Zhang family.

To date, the patriarch of the Zhang family is the first member of the Zhang family to come and visit him.

"grandfather!"

Zhang Shen's intense self-loathing dissipated considerably the moment he saw the old patriarch Zhang.

"grandfather!"

His eyes welled up with tears, and his voice choked with emotion: "You've finally come to see your grandson!"

Zhang Shen was completely unaware of the annoyance and heartache in the eyes of the old patriarch.

"Can I go out now? Grandfather must have already taken care of things."

Zhang Shen talked to himself, and soon breathed a sigh of relief.

"That makes sense. He was just killing a piece of trash, an ant, yet he dared to try and drag a genius down with him. What a pipe dream!"

Zhang Shen's back, which had been hunched over for several days, suddenly straightened up.

He said righteously, "That old bastard surnamed Su is also blind! His Majesty is obviously biased towards you, yet he actually thinks that by dragging me to an audience with the Emperor, he can convict me and the Zhang family!"

"This is simply unreasonable!"

Zhang Shen was even more delighted: "Can I go out now?"

He asked again.

The old patriarch Zhang did not answer, but he had already thought of things in a positive light.

"My grandson didn't say a word to anyone!"

Zhang Shen recalled his outburst in the street, during which he recounted many of his crimes: "That day on the street, he was only talking about the minor matter of me killing a few people."

He didn't think he had done anything wrong. He even felt that with the power of the Zhang family, even if he killed someone, he could simply pay some compensation and intimidate the victim's family, and the matter would naturally be dropped.

You can't fight city hall. Those ants wanting him to pay for their ants' lives is pure fantasy and overestimating his own abilities!
As for the rumors and gossip circulating on the streets, they are nothing to fear.

No matter how harshly they condemn him for his disregard for human life now, once they see him emerge unscathed in a few days, they will naturally know that he is someone not to be trifled with. Even if the evidence is conclusive and he has personally confessed to his crimes, it will be in vain if no one dares to touch him.

At that time, they will naturally know to restrain themselves.

"It concerns the core secrets of the Zhang family, and my grandson has kept his mouth shut and hasn't uttered a single word."

When Zhang Shen said this, he had calmed down considerably.

He stared at the old patriarch's expression, trying to figure out why the other party hadn't said a word since entering.

Do you want to discard him as well?

That won't work!

Zhang Shenwei's face darkened as he thought of Zhang Chi, who had been abandoned.

Although he didn't have much affection for his half-brother, in the end, Zhang Chi had only hurt Song Lan.

But Song Lan was already Zhang Chi's fiancée, and Zhang Chi was just joking with her; it didn't really cause any harm.

Ultimately, it was Song Lan who made a mountain out of a molehill and lacked any sense of female virtue, which led to Zhang Chi's downfall.

But instead of protecting him, his grandfather simply abandoned Zhang Chi, erased all his identities, and brought Liu Tian back.

From that moment on, Zhang Shen understood that if he wanted to establish himself in the Zhang family, he had to become the person with the most say in the family.

Otherwise, one must learn to lie low, and more importantly, to appear useful, very useful, useful to the Zhang family, and useful to one's grandfather.

When Patriarch Zhang heard Zhang Shen's "threat," his expression changed. His eyes became deep and unfathomable, as if he were looking at a dead man: "You really didn't say anything?"
