After the servants had left, only the two of them remained in the spacious living room.

One had deep, inscrutable eyes, with emotions that were hard to discern. The other had a cold gaze, accompanied by a hint of sarcastic smile.

“Is Mingya such an eyesore to you? Is it necessary to ruin it?” Shen Wan’s smile was cool. “Or perhaps…” She paused, her smile turning colder. “Is it me who truly bothers you?”

Shen Qian furrowed his brow and spoke in a low voice, “Regardless of whether you believe it or not, that’s not my intention.”

“Then what is your intention? Sending someone to initiate the bankruptcy proceedings at Mingya, expecting me to come find you, and having your secretary wait in advance to trap me, is that your idea of fun?”

The man moved his lips slightly, saying, “I just wanted you to give me a call voluntarily…”

But Shen Wan didn’t. In the end, it was him who compromised first and called her to come home.

Clearly, he set the stage, yet the one party meant to enter the scene was still lingering outside the plot. It was indeed both laughable and ironic.

Shen Wan questioned, “What exactly do you want?”

“I regret it.” Shen Qian looked at her, his eyes deep as the sea.

The woman furrowed her brow, not understanding his meaning.

“I shouldn’t have agreed to let you work outside in the first place. Wouldn’t it have been better for you to stay at home peacefully and just be the third lady of the Shen family?”

“Just because of this ridiculous reason, you want Mingya to go bankrupt?” Shen Wan couldn’t believe it. “You clearly know that waiting for the right moment to sell Mingya not only helps you get rid of the burden but also allows you to recoup the losses from previous years. But by declaring bankruptcy directly, not only will there be no profit, but there’s also a risk of losing everything! Even in this situation, you still insist on going your own way?”

Shen Qian’s gaze darkened for a moment, and he suddenly asked, “Did you really only attend vocational school?”

While this information might be considered fundamental for seasoned business professionals, the fact that it was coming from someone with only vocational school education and zero prior experience in company management, and yet they were able to seamlessly apply it to the Mingya situation, was truly remarkable.

Shen Wan’s eyes flickered slightly, but she didn’t appear guilty. Instead, she raised a faint smile.

“Brother, do you think I’m dumb?”

Shen Qian squinted his eyes.

“Not knowing something in the past doesn’t mean I don’t know it now. Even if I don’t know it now, it doesn’t mean I won’t know it in the future. Learning is endless, and people don’t stay in one place forever.”

“Heh…” Shen Qian chuckled softly, a clear sense of pleasure in his eyes. “Wan Wan, how many surprises can you still bring me?”

She didn’t avoid the situation, which was unusual for her. Instead, she lifted her chin slightly and said, “Make sure you pay close attention and see clearly!”

The man’s smile deepened. “Then I’ll look forward to it.”

“Don’t worry, Mingya won’t let you decide its fate with just a single word, and I won’t play along and go home as you wish, becoming a canary in a cage.”

A canary?

Shen Qian was momentarily lost in thought. So, that’s what she thought…

However, according to the determined Shen Wan, this was the first time he had seen her like this—so headstrong, assertive, and unbridled, yet not reckless, but composed and cautious, planning every step.

At that moment, she seemed to be radiating brilliance.

It stung Shen Qian’s eyes, and yet he couldn’t help but want to keep looking, to understand this woman, to see through her…

“What’s going on here…” Shen Chunjiang, who had just entered the house, sensed the tension between the siblings and spoke immediately.

Shen Qian turned to look at his father, suppressing any excess emotions in his eyes, and offered a warm smile. “I’m currently discussing the matter of Mingya’s bankruptcy with Wan Wan.”

Shen Chunjiang raised an eyebrow and turned his gaze to his daughter.

Shen Wan lowered her head obediently. From a distance, she still appeared to be that pure, delicate, and fragile white flower.

But Shen Qian knew—she was not!
