C9 Refuse to Answer
When Su Shimann called Shen Ze, it was already past midnight.
Shen Ze, who had been playing outside with Mu Ling for the whole day, had just finished taking a hot bath and was lying on the bed.
When he heard the phone ring, he sat up and picked up the phone on the bedside table.
Seeing that it was Su Shimann calling, Shen Ze's face revealed a look of doubt.
"It's so late. Why did she suddenly call me?"
In Shen Ze's opinion, Su Shimann had always despised and hated him. She wanted nothing more than to cut off ties with him. Logically speaking, Su Shimann should not have contacted him now that they were divorced.
Shen Ze could not understand why Su Shimann would suddenly call him. But he was already disheartened, so he did not want to say anything to Su Shimann.
But after hesitating for a moment, he could not help but pick up the phone.
Su Shimann saw that Shen Ze picked up the phone and thought for a moment. Her tone was a little awkward as she said, "Shen Ze, I have something to ask you."
Shen Ze did not say anything and waited for Su Shimann to continue.
Su Shimann said in a deep voice, "You told me that my mother had friends in Tianze Group. I just asked her and she said that she did not have any friends in Tianze Group."
"I was able to successfully cooperate with the Tianze Group back then, was it because you had friends in the Tianze Group?"
Shen Ze thought Su Shimann wanted to ask him something important, but he did not expect her to only ask him if he had any friends in the Tianze Group.
How should he answer this question?
He was the boss of the Tianze Group, so he did not need to know friends.
Shen Ze really wanted to say that the reason why the Su's could successfully cooperate with the Tianze Group was because he was the boss of the Tianze Group.
However, when he thought of Su Shimann and Chung Faang looking down on him in their hearts and thinking that he was a poor and useless person with no background or connections, he gave up on the idea of explaining to her.
If he said that he was the boss of the Tianze Group, Su Shimann and her mother would definitely think that he was talking nonsense. Then they would mock and ridicule him, so why would he ask for trouble?
Shen Ze thought for a while and denied it with a self-deprecating tone, "I am just a country bumpkin with no background and no connections, so I can't have any friends in the Tianze Group, much less have the ability to facilitate cooperation."
Although Su Shimann did not believe that Shen Ze had such ability, she was still very puzzled and asked, "Then why did you lie to me that my mother had friends in the Tianze Group? Why can I use my mom's name to work together with the Tianze Group?"
When Su Shimann spoke to Shen Ze, she had already gotten used to using a high and mighty tone. Although her voice was not loud when she said these words, it was full of questioning.
Su Shimann's questioning tone made Shen Ze feel very uncomfortable.
Su Shimann still treated him as the Home Son-in-law who always answered questions and was submissive.
Shen Ze's lips curled into a cold smile. His tone was cold as he said, "Su Shimann, the answers to these questions are no longer important now. Furthermore, I have no obligation to answer these questions."
"I'm tired. I need to rest!"
After saying these words, Shen Ze did not give Su Shimann a chance to speak and directly hung up the phone.
When she heard the sound of the phone being hung up, Su Shimann was a little confused and at the same time a little angry.
Shen Ze did not answer her question. How could he directly hang up the phone?
Shen Ze's actions made Su Shimann a little unhappy, but she could not do anything about it.
Shen Ze had already divorced her. Just as Shen Ze had said, Shen Ze had no obligation to answer her question now.
Su Shimann thought of Shen Ze's obedience in the past, and he would never hang up on her. She felt even worse.
Chung Faang had been sitting next to Su Shimann and listening to the conversation between Su Shimann and Shen Ze over the phone.
"Shen Ze is ungrateful. In the past, he relied on our Su family to live. Now you ask him a few questions, but he did not cooperate. " He really has no conscience! "
Seeing that Shen Ze hung up the phone without answering Su Shimann's question, Chung Faang was so angry that her face turned green. She began to scold Shen Ze.
Su Shimann was very annoyed at the moment and did not want to hear Chung Faang cursing in front of her like a shrew. She shouted in frustration, "Mom, stop scolding!"
Chung Faang saw that Su Shimann was very angry and could only suppress the anger in her heart and did not scold Shen Ze anymore.
After that, Chung Faang's mind was once again placed on Su's Group. She said very anxiously, "Shimann, now it seems that we are unable to use Shen Ze to find a solution. What should we do now?"
Su Shimann had thought that Chung Faang had friends in the Tianze Group, and then she could use this to give the Su's a chance to live. But now, there was no hope, and she did not get an answer from Shen Ze. Now, she could not think of any other solution.
Su Shimann shook her head with a sad face and fell into silence.
Seeing that Su Shimann did not say anything, Chung Faang was so anxious that she frequently scratched her head.
After a while, Chung Faang seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said, "Shimann, I just remembered. When I was out playing yesterday, I heard that Shea Hao came back from studying abroad."
"Shimann, you can ask Shea Hao for help and ask him to use the Shea family's power to help our Su's get through this crisis."
Shea Hao was the Great young master of the Shea family, a wealthy family in Shu Capital. He had always admired Su Shimann, who was known as the number one beauty in Shu Capital.
Su Shimann heard him and rolled her eyes. Then, she whispered to Chung Faang, "Will Shea Hao be willing to help me?"
Chung Faang looked very confident. She said, "Shimann, everyone in Shu Capital knows that Shea Hao likes you. As long as you are willing to ask him for help, he will definitely help you."
"Helping Su's to come back to life is not a small matter. I think Shea Hao will not help me so much." Su Shimann said worriedly. She did not have Chung Faang's confidence.
Before she married Shen Ze, she still had some confidence. But now she was a divorced woman. She did not have any confidence that Shea Hao would be willing to help Su's.
Seeing Su Shimann's worried and hesitant expression, Chung Faang patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "Shimann, you haven't even tried it yet. How can you be disheartened first? You trust me. If I say you can, then you can."
"We can't find a better way now. Don't worry and hesitate. Listen to me. You go to Shea Hao tomorrow for help."
Su Shimann thought for a moment and gritted her teeth. She made up her mind and said, "Okay. I will go to Shea Hao tomorrow."
Seeing Su Shimann agree to go look for Shea Hao, Chung Faang felt the same as Su Shimann earlier. She felt that Su's had hope of reviving the dead.
Chung Faang cheered and said, "Shimann, I believe you will succeed tomorrow! You will definitely get Shea Hao to help our Su's!"
"I hope it is as you wish."
Su Shimann did not have confidence in herself. But she was still the same as Chung Faang. She hoped that she could convince Shea Hao to help the Su's Group tomorrow.
