She filled the teapot to seven-tenths full, then closed it.

Lifting the teapot, she brought it closer and took a whiff, smiling as she said, “It smells wonderful.”

Zhou Chi wasn’t a tea connoisseur, nor did he particularly enjoy the bitterness of tea. However, upon hearing her praise, it didn’t seem quite as difficult to endure. He took a sip, pursed his lips, and then took another sip.

After repeating this a few times, he finally ran out of patience, casting a cautious glance at Shen Wan.

“Speak your mind.”

Zhou Chi grinned. “I have a few questions.”

“Go ahead.”

“Why did you bring up the topic of shares just now? Clearly, you didn’t want them, yet you mentioned it, which could be annoying.”

“Who found it annoying?” Shen Wan lowered her eyelids slightly, continuing to savor her tea.

“Oh! Didn’t you see the other guy? His eyeballs almost popped out!”

“I saw him. It means my request was indeed a bit unreasonable.”

Zhou Chi furrowed his brow. “If you knew it was unreasonable, why bring it up?” Shen Wan wasn’t one to make jokes, and today’s occasion was almost like a formal negotiation. There was no reason for you to make a mistake.

“I was just curious about Yi Hong’s reaction.” Shen Wan gently placed her teacup down.

“So, you were testing him with this approach?”

“You could say that.”

Zhou Chi clicked his tongue. “Aren’t you afraid things might go wrong…?” If Yi Hong had refused, the situation would have been extremely awkward, and there might not have been any further discussion.

“That just proves 1 don’t need to make any more requests.” Shen Wan’s lips curved with a hint of confidence, a shallow arc that revealed her unwavering certainty. “But in reality, it turns out I didn’t misjudge him initially.”

When she chose Yi Hong as the instrument to pierce Tian Shui Real Estate, she had carefully considered his personality. If he had been treacherous or petty, it would have meant she had made a mistake. Fortunately, the outcome was favorable, and she wasn’t disappointed.

Zhou Chi gulped down the tea that had cooled a bit. He didn’t quite understand these intricate matters; he felt like Shen Wan’s thought process was fundamentally different from his.

“You stay and take over the team as soon as possible.”

“Cough, cough, cough…” Zhou Chi choked on his tea, his cheeks flushed, his dark eyes filled with incredulity. “What did you just say?!”

“Stay here, manage the transfer of shares, and from now on, take charge of this team as both an investor and a leader. Redirect your game, the one with the foxes, towards developing a large-scale competitive mobile game.”

“You want to give me the shares?!”

“Why not?” Shen Wan found his startled reaction amusing. “Shen Qian has already grown suspicious of me. He’s been testing me openly and discreetly, and even this trip to Beihai was only possible because he went abroad. If I were to receive such a generous favor from Yi Hong without reason, wouldn’t that expose me directly?”

“But you can’t just give them to me…” Zhou Chi muttered quietly.

“Why not?”

“Aren’t you afraid I might embezzle them?”

“You?” The young girl assessed him with her beautiful eyes. “I’m afraid you don’t have the ability.”

Zhou Chi:”…”

“Even if you did embezzle them, it wouldn’t matter,” she changed her tone. “I have ways to make you return them.”

“Please, stop right there, all three of you! You can’t go in!” The waiter blocked the entrance, wearing a fearful expression but refusing to yield.

Through the corridor lay the Tea Room No. 7, scattered in the backyard, isolated from each other, and strictly off-limits to outsiders. It had an extremely high level of privacy, making this tea house, known as “Shang Yuan”, the perfect venue for informal negotiations in Beihai.

“Get out of the way.” Despite his doll-like face, his expression turned grim, and even his whimsical mushroom-shaped haircut couldn’t disguise the chilling aura he emanated..
