Chapter 637: Chapter 637: When You Have Raised a Dog

Shen Jianhua gasped for air, his anger barely contained, "If she wants to open a store or become a big boss, that’s fine by me. From now on, she has nothing to do with us. She is her own person, we are ours. Let her do as she pleases; if she becomes rich, I won’t ask about it, if she starves, I won’t care."

Now, Shen Mianmian thinks she is someone just because she has some money and opened a small vegetable shop. When she encounters difficulties in the future, grows up, marries, and is looked down on by her in-laws because she has no parents, she will regret it.

Having traditional beliefs, Shen Jianhua was convinced that a woman without her parents’ support couldn’t lead a good life and would be bullied and disrespected by her in-laws.

"Uncle, are we really going to ignore her from now on? Sister is being too selfish, how could she take the money and live independently, without giving any thought to showing filial piety to you and Aunt? At the very least, you raised her for so many years!" Zhou Siyu felt dissatisfied and tried to stir Shen Jianhua’s emotions with her words. Why should Shen Mianmian get away with stealing money and severing ties with the family, and instead of living miserably as she should, it seemed like she had escaped the countryside and started living a better life early?

Shen Jianhua snorted coldly, "If she had any regard for me as her father, she would never have done such a thing. I should have never allowed her to attend school in the first place."

If Shen Mianmian hadn’t been educated, she wouldn’t have come up with so many clever schemes.

"Uncle, it’s too late for all this now, isn’t it?" Zhou Siyu spoke as if she was indignant on behalf of Shen Jianhua, "We should think about what to do in the future. If Sister doesn’t care about the affection you gave her in raising her, shouldn’t she be made to pay back her upbringing costs to you?"

"What upbringing costs?" Shen Jianhua, furious, took a heavy breath, "The police told me that since she is a minor, I should provide her with living expenses. If it weren’t for severing our relationship, I would really have to give her money every month. She was first in the city on her examinations, so everyone pays more attention to her. Plus, with He Nan backing her, we couldn’t win no matter where we took the fight."

If she were truly his beloved daughter, having achieved such outstanding academic results, Shen Jianhua would have joyously thrown a banquet. Unfortunately, she was just an ungrateful wretch.

"So we’re just going to let it be?" Zhou Siyu was unwilling to let it go.

Shen Jianhua sighed, "What else can we do? Over the years, your aunt and I haven’t really spent much on her, just provided her with meals. Let’s just think of it as having raised a dog that ran away!"

He was uneducated, and his words were harsh.

Zhou Siyu realized that Shen Jianhua truly had no intention of looking for Shen Mianmian anymore. She was frustrated but powerless. With a big boss backing Shen Mianmian, they simply couldn’t fight her.

"Uncle, sister may be heartless, but I won’t be. From now on, I will be your daughter, and you will be my father. I will take care of you and Aunt in your old age; I won’t let you live worse than anyone else."

Now that Uncle had cut ties with Shen Mianmian, he would only have to provide for her. No matter what, her life would definitely be better than before.

"That’s right, that’s right," Shen Jianhua nodded repeatedly on the phone, "Hearing you say that makes Uncle very happy, Siyu. Study hard. As long as you get into university, even if I have to pawn everything I own, Uncle will support you."

Shen Mianmian no longer had anything to do with him. In the future, for old age care, he could only rely on Zhou Siyu. The child had always been well-behaved; his efforts had not been in vain.

"Don’t worry! Uncle, I will definitely study hard. I want to get into Beijing University and become the pride of our village."

Zhou Siyu said more pleasing words, touching Shen Jianhua deeply, and only afterward did she hang up the phone.
