Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Shen Qian and Tan Yao exchanged a glance. Shen Qian picked up his chopsticks and started eating, while Tan Yao hesitated for a mont. Seeing the other two had already begun eating, did he really want to just sit there?
He gritted his teeth and decided to eat as well.
Midway through the al, Lushen was considerate and asked, “Would you like so wine?”
Shen Qian politely declined.
Naturally, Tan Yao didn’t drink either, and of course, Lushen didn’t ask him.
What kind of wine could a dog drink?
After two bowls of rice, Lushen felt full and suddenly beca excited. “I haven’t asked why Young Master Shen, who usually stays in Ning City, ca all the way to Jingping?”
Tan Yao’s gaze darkened, and he tightened his grip on his chopsticks.
Shen Qian wiped his mouth with a napkin, then his hands, and finally discarded the napkin with graceful and dignified movents.
Although he knew that Lushen was deliberately touching his sore spot, he didn’t get angry. He responded calmly, “I ca to discuss so business.” “Oh?” Lushen raised an eyebrow and grinned maliciously, showing his teeth, “Did you make a deal?”
“No.”
“Well, that’s a pity…” Lushen spread his hands, coupled with a smirk that was far from regretful. It was more like gloating!
“Lushen, don’t go too far!” Tan Yao couldn’t bear it anymore and slamd the table, standing up.
The smile on Lushen’s face vanished instantly as he gave Tan Yao a chilling look. “Who do you think you are? I’m talking to soone with the surna Shen. What right does a dog like you have to speak?”
This was the true nature of the young dandies in Jingping—capricious, arrogant, and domineering!
If I want to scold you, I’ll scold you. Do I need to choose the right mont?
Tan Yao retorted, “Rubbing salt in the wound! You’ve gone too far!”
“Wound?” This description seed to please Lushen, and his icy expression gradually turned into a smile. “It seems that the Haihai Developnt Project has hit your master quite hard, huh?”
“Shut up…”
“Ah Yao, please leave.” Shen Qian spoke calmly.
“President Shen!”
Although his deanor remained gentle, Shen Qian was also very firm, “Leave.”
Tan Yao lowered his head and bowed, then left.
Lushen leisurely took a sip of tea and grinned, “Even disobedient dogs need to be properly trained. It’s to prevent them from biting randomly.”
“You should identify the dog’s owner before disciplining it,” Shen Qian said coolly. “Seventh Lord, you seem to be a bit lacking in self-awareness.”
Lushen’s gaze suddenly darkened. “Are you warning ? Don’t forget whose territory this is. If you don’t understand that, it seems you’re getting bored of living.”
Shen Qian showed no fear of his threat. “I know you invited here just to enjoy a good laugh, but unfortunately, Seventh Lord will be disappointed.” “Tsk, not necessarily. I heard that before this, you were always confident that the Haihai Developnt Project was a sure thing for Tian Shui. Now that it’s gone sour, I wonder how Young Master Shen feels about it?”
“Heard?” Shen Qian raised an eyebrow. “Heard from whom?”
Just as Lushen was about to respond, Shen Qian added, “Shen Wan, perhaps?”
This ti, Lushen froze.
At that mont, Shen Qian’s suspicion was confird!
His heart ached fiercely.
Why did it have to be you?
Lushen cleared his throat, concealing his emotions, and decided not to reveal Shen Wan’s involvent for now. “Young Master Shen, you’re quite the joker. What does your sister have to do with ?”
“It would be best if she doesn’t.”
Shen Qian’s eyes grew dark, with a hint of gloom. Shen Wan, you’re truly remarkable to have Lushen covering for you.
“Sneeze…” Shen Wan, who was far away in Ning City, rubbed her nose.
“I’ve had my al, and I’ve been your guest. If Seventh Lord doesn’t have any other matters, I’ll take my leave.”
“Why the rush? Don’t tell you’re going to run out of here and find a secluded corner to cry in?”
Shen Qian’s eyes remained indifferent, and he chose not to respond to Lushen’s provocations, which only added to the irritation..
