Wasting Money to Become an Immortal-Chapter 341: It’s better to know
With the sincere look on his face, it really seemed like he was pouring his heart out.
If one didn’t know better, they would have been fooled by him.
After all, he really seemed like he was in love with the one that he was professing to.
While Family Head Shan wasn’t happy that he had blamed the family for this, he was still impressed by his fourth son. In the end, it turned out that his ability to play with women had worked in their favour.
Following his son’s performance, Family Head Shan suddenly bowed his head and said, "Daughter in law, it was all my fault. I didn’t recognize what a good and virtuous woman you are, so I was the fool when I sent you away. As long as you’re willing to forgive us, I promise that we can be a family again, your daughter will even become the head of the Shan Family and lead our family to a bright future."
The way that he said this was as if the Shan Family still had value.
Only, what value did the Shan Family have now that it had been condemned like this?
However, if one thought about it...with the power that Bing Xin had and the connections that she had made, it might be possible for the Shan Family to rise again.
That was the thought that had passed through Family Head Shan’s mind when he had seen Bing Xin. It was just that it seemed very unlikely that they would be able to convince Bing Xin to come back to the Shan Family.
But it was different if her mother was here.
With the charm of his fourth son, it was possible as long as he helped him.
Perhaps it would even be possible for the Shan Family to become even more powerful than it was before.
But first they had to trick this foolish woman.
They had done it before, so they could certainly do it a second time.
With the two of them working together, it really seemed like they were sincere about becoming a family again.
As they were doing this, the eyes of Bing Xin’s mother couldn’t help trembling.
She just looked at Fourth Master Shan who was looking at her with his charming smile.
Even though he was now a middle aged man, that didn’t mean that he had stopped taking care of his appearance. At the same time, he had been a cultivator which also helped him become more handsome.
Even if his cultivation level wasn’t high, it was still enough for him to look handsome at his age.
He really was a man who was born to manipulate women.
The most important thing was a lack of emotions.
One might think that this would be the biggest handicap, but it was actually his greatest advantage. After all, emotions only got in the way of manipulating women since he might actually be moved by the women that he wooed.
Instead, lacking emotions made it possible for him to trick women without a single care in the world.
So he had no intention of actually taking responsibility for Bing Xin’s mother.
He just wanted to use her for his own gains.
Namely, he could become the head of the Shan Family as long as his daughter supported him. She didn’t want to stay here since she would want to follow the young master that could even command the Roaring Tiger Emperor.
Since she was his daughter, naturally he would be the one that took over for her and would become the head of the Shan Family.
Both of them had their own delusions, it was just too bad that none of them would come true.
After they had said their fill, the two of them just looked at Bing Xin’s mother and waited for her response. She had been standing there silently looking at the two of them while they said all of this.
They couldn’t help feeling that it was strange since she now had the same look that was on her face as Bing Xin.
She was just looking at them with a calm look on her face.
At the same time, it seemed that she was holding Bing Xin’s hand.
They didn’t think too much of this earlier, but now that they saw her holding Bing Xin’s hand like this, it really seemed like there was something off...
It seemed like she was drawing power and confidence from her.
Fourth Master Shan wanted to say something, but Bing Xin’s mother cut him off as he opened his mouth by saying, "I guess you never really loved me..."
Her voice trailed off as there was sadness that filled her eyes.
Fourth Master Shan and Family Head Shan were shocked to hear this.
They couldn’t believe that the woman that had been putty in their hands was now acting this way. They just couldn’t believe that this foolish woman who they had played with and thrown out was actually now seeing through them.
Fourth Master Shan recovered first by saying, "No, it’s the truth. You are the only one in my heart, I just couldn’t come for you because this old fool has been suppressing me all these years."
Family Head Shan had a very ugly look on his face when he heard his son betraying him like this, but there was nothing that he could say. Even if he wanted to say something, it wasn’t as if he had anything that he could say to save himself.
It was just too bad that Bing Xin’s mother wouldn’t be fooled that easily.
She just looked at the two of them with a sad and disappointed look. After squeezing Bing Xin’s hand one more time, she turned around and no longer looked at the two of them.
The expressions on the faces of Fourth Master Shan and Family Head Shan dropped when they saw this.
"It’s better to know than to wonder about something forever. Now you have your closure."
