“Grandfather, I know everything that has happened over the years. If it weren’t for my parents taking me in back then, I don’t know what I would have done.”
Liang Yutang was visibly surprised. He slowly asked, “You’ve remembered everything?”
Everyone here knew about Shen Roujia’s past.
Shen Roujia curled her lips into a slight smile and said softly, “Over the years, I’ve kept track of who has treated me well and who hasn’t.”
“Grandfather, you probably already know about my brother’s situation. I’m using this opportunity to help clear the obstacles in his path.”
Liang Yutang frowned, “But you’re just a Miss...”
Shen Roujia slightly furrowed her brows. “Grandfather, this is something I have to do. My brother has sacrificed so much for us over the years. I can’t just run away. Even if I have to leave eventually, I need to do something first.”
Hearing this, Tu Lie’s thoughts grew even stronger. He cleared his throat, as if unintentionally interrupting their conversation.
“And who is this?” Liang Yutang asked.
Shen Roujia’s expression didn’t change as she introduced him, “This is a merchant who’s traveling with us.” 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
Liang Yutang scrutinized Tu Lie, whose distinctive appearance made it clear he was a foreigner.
“A foreign merchant?”
Tu Lie placed a hand on his shoulder and bowed slightly, “Sir.”
Liang Yutang nodded, “Would you like to come inside and discuss things?”
Shen Roujia glanced at Tu Lie and suddenly smiled. “Grandfather, you know I’m always careful about the people I bring. You can trust that everyone here is reliable. Let’s speak openly.”
Liang Yutang paused, then nodded, “That works.”
