Pak!
A crisp sound of slap resonated. Shen Linyu was looking at his father, eyes wide, cheek red and swelling, and asking himself why his father's palms hit him straight in the face.
He was having a hectic day in the office when he received a call from Shen Zhaohui. It was a rare occurrence that his father would contact him personally, so when this happened, he canceled the entire schedule he had the entire day and went straight to the Shen Mansion.
Shen Linyu could still remember the smugness he felt a while ago because he thought his father would praise him because his scheme seemed effective. Just a little nudge, and he's sure that Shen Yuan will come rolling back to them, having no choice but to do what they planned to do to expand their family's company.
But why is he being slapped right now? His father didn't give him time to sit on the couch.
