She smiled, and a touch of something different appeared on her once reserved and distant face—a playful and mischievous glint.
“Sixth Lord seems to really enjoy meddling in others’ affairs.”
“Anything related to you isn’t considered meddling.”
Shen Wan’s eyes slightly dimmed, and her smile faded.
However, Quan Banting took the opportunity to close the half-step distance he had opened earlier, his tall figure casting a shadow over the slender woman, from a distance, they seemed to merge into one, intimate and entwined.
A scorching breath sprayed against Shen Wan’s ear, carrying a powerful aggression and an undeniable presence. He said, “How do you feel about the proposal I made last time?”
“I’m curious about you.” 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t
“So?”
“Do it with me again.”
Recalling the conversation between the two at the annual banquet, Shen Wan still remembered the man’s expression at the time—dead serious, with a hint of curiosity, even though the words were explicit, they didn’t come out of his mouth with any hint of lewdness or obscenity; instead, it sounded as if he were discussing an academic issue with utmost seriousness.
How did she respond?
“Given Sixth Lord’s current status, isn’t it easy for him to find women?”
“It’s different.” He looked at her intently, his pitch-black pupils bathed in a warm glow under the light, softening their sharpness, becoming restrained and profound. “Those women are not you.”
Shen Wan couldn’t read the emotions in his eyes and muttered, “You’re sick,” before hastily leaving.
As she reflected on it now, she understood that back then, she had felt a subtle urge to escape.
What Shen Wan didn’t know was that the man watched her retreating figure until it completely disappeared from his sight, then muttered as if in a dream, “Indeed, I am sick…”
Back to the present, Quan Banting repeated an old tune, and Shen Wan stared at him for a while before suddenly speaking—
“Hey, do you like me?” Her tone rose at the end, filled with playful mockery, and her eyes revealed undisguised amusement.
The man paused, like?
His cold and stern jawline appeared even more aloof, and a soft hum escaped his nostrils, carrying the arrogance and dominance unique to those in power, tinged with a subtle disdain, “Are you worthy?”
Shen Wan’s smile remained unchanged, her gaze calm and unaffected, as if the one being underestimated and even humiliated wasn’t herself. “In that case, I have even less reason to agree to your conditions. After all, you don’t like me, and I don’t like you.”
Quan Banting’s brow furrowed slightly. Although he knew it was true, when the woman casually said, “1 don’t like you” as if it didn’t matter, he still found it grating.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Shen Qian about your meeting with Yi Hong?”
“If Sixth Lord enjoys being a gossipmonger, then I have nothing to say.”
The man’s gaze darkened abruptly. “Are you the mysterious person behind Yi Hong?”
Shen Wan didn’t respond, acting as if she didn’t understand.
“Is the Plot Seven’s case also your handiwork?”
Shen Wan didn’t give a reply. .𝒎
“Do you want to deal with Shen Qian or even the entire Shen family?”
She remained silent, only her eyelashes quivered slightly.
“Heh…” The man chuckled softly, his deep voice spreading gradually in the air, with a resonance that plucked at heartstrings. “Interesting!”
“If Sixth Uncle has no other instructions, 1’11 take my leave.” Shen Wan turned around, and just as she had taken three steps, she was blocked by two of Quan Banting’s subordinates.
Chu Yujiang looked at her in surprise. Since he had been facing away earlier, he could only see the woman’s graceful figure. Now, as she turned around, her entire face was exposed to the sunlight.. It turned out to be the Shen family Third Lady—the woman who had once shared an intimate moment with the Lord at the Hot Spring Villa! He had recently investigated her background and naturally recognized her!
