A sharp pain struck the man’s heart, his eyes filled with anger. “Shen Wan, how dare you?!”

“I told you not to, but you made me throw it.”

The expensive bracelet now lay silently on the carpet, no matter how exquisite its design or how dazzling the diamonds, it was now left in the company like some dust.

Just then, the door swung open, and an unexpected guest forcefully entered.

“Shen Qian, do you think that by hiding in your father’s territory, I wouldn’t dare…” Lushen gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with fury. However, in the next moment, he abruptly halted, lifted his foot, and cautiously took a step back, bending down closer to the ground.

Shen Qian’s expression darkened as he approached with big strides.

But Lushen was quicker. As soon as he confirmed that the shiny object was the “Ares Tears”, he swiftly grabbed it with lightning speed and tucked it into his pocket. He didn’t care about its ownership; it was his now.

If it weren’t for maintaining his own image, Lushen might have burst into laughter.

Isn’t there a saying that goes, “you will find what you’re looking for without much effort”?

Yep, that’s it!

He briefly looked at Shen Wan, who was nearby, without giving her much notice, simply putting on an act. Afterward, he transformed his previously angry expression upon entering into a smile, as if he were relishing a pleasant breeze. “Seeing that Director Shen has guests, I won’t intrude any further. I’ll bid you farewell.”

“Hold on—”

Lushen’s figure froze.

“If the Seventh Lord wants to leave, that’s fine, but please return the item to me first.”

“The item?” Lushen turned back, facing him with a mischievous look, hands outstretched innocently. “What item?”

Shen Qian didn’t lose his temper at Lushen’s insolent demeanor. He calmly said, “Seventh Lord, do you want to see the surveillance footage?”

Lushen’s expression darkened abruptly. “If what you’re calling the ‘item’ is the bracelet I just picked up, then I’m sorry, but 1 may not be able to give it to you. After all, the rule of ‘finders, keepers’ applies to things found on the ground.”

“So, Seventh Lord not only excels at coercion and temptation but also at speaking falsehoods with open eyes.”

In recent days, Lushen had used various tactics to pressure him into handing over the bracelet. From using the Lan family’s reputation to exert pressure on some of Tian Shui’s crucial business partners to the current situation of confronting him at his doorstep, it had been a constant barrage. Shen Qian had to consider his relationship with Quan Hanting on one hand and listen to Lushen’s constant complaints on the other. It was becoming increasingly exasperating.

“I originally thought that someone who could be on familiar terms with Sixth Lord Quan and Third Lord He would be a big shot. 1 never expected him to be a scoundrel who loves to take advantage and even argues unreasonably.”

“Shen Qian! Watch your mouth! I had my eyes on the bracelet first. If it weren’t for the auction being postponed, you wouldn’t even have the qualification to touch it!” Lushen’s eyes blazed with anger, but his gaze remained arrogant and haughty. It seemed as if looking down on others had become a habit engraved in his bones. He let out a cold laugh.

“What are you, anyway? Do you think you’re worthy of mentioning my Third Brother and Sixth Brother?”

Shen Wan stood to the side, watching the verbal exchange between the two. She could probably guess the identity of the newcomer, and it seemed that the source of the dispute was the bracelet she had thrown away.

Even though she was insulted by the words of the other party, Shen Qian’s face never showed any anger. “I just want the bracelet.”

Assertive and resolute, he wouldn’t back down.

Shen Wan frowned. The Shen Qian in her memory shouldn’t be like this. “He” was usually calm and adaptable, and he would never offend someone like Lushen, who had a deep background, over a mere bracelet.

A cunning strategist, an almost perfect opportunist… These labels could all be accurately applied to him..
