“Who?”
“It’s me.” Shen Qian.
Shen Wan could only temporarily put down her phone and walk to the door, but she didn’t rush to open it. “Is there something you need?”
“The documents that Mingya sent over this afternoon, Steward Zhou asked me to deliver them.”
Shen Wan opened the door and reached out to take them.
However, the man pulled them back, not intending to hand them over.
“You…”
In that instant, the man pressed forward, and Shen Wan took a step back. He took advantage of the situation to squeeze through the door, and with a push and a thud, the door closed.
Shen Wan frowned. “What are you doing?”
The man approached calmly, still holding the documents. His face was calm and rational, and his eyes, hidden behind his glasses, were as gentle as a stream and as deep as an ancient well.
“The documents that were delivered this morning, you didn’t go to the company today.” He stated it as a fact, without any hint of inquiry, because he had already made up his mind.
The man scanned the surroundings calmly, and finally, his gaze settled on her.
Shen Wan instinctively clenched her fist. The look in his eyes made her sense danger on a primal level.
“A new dress?” The man chuckled lightly and casually placed the documents aside, his whole demeanor suddenly becoming restrained.
At these words, Shen Wan was momentarily stunned. She looked down at the long dress she was wearing. She had bought it in the city earlier in the morning, intending to change into it when she got home. However, with her right hand being inconvenient, she couldn’t be bothered to change, so she simply wore it and went to sleep.
Before going downstairs, she had thrown on a knit cardigan and left it unbuttoned, so the dress inside was visible at a glance.
“What exactly do you want to say?” Shen Wan looked at him coldly.
Shen Qian asked, “Is it fun?”
There was no need to answer, as he continued, “It must be fun, otherwise why would you be so engrossed and stay out all night?”
Shen Wan’s gaze flickered.
Caught off guard by the man, her face suddenly darkened. “Speak! Where did you go last night? Who were you with?”
Shen Wan raised the corners of her mouth sarcastically. “Are you questioning me?”
“That’s right!”
“What right do you have?”
“I’m your brother!”
“Even a real brother wouldn’t pry into such matters. What right do you, someone who came out of nowhere, have?!”
“Shen Wan, you seem to have forgotten. This is the Shen family, and your surname is Shen!”
“And so what?”
The man sneered twice, and his eyes towards her were frosty. Wherever his gaze passed, it was cold. “And so what?” He countered, then suddenly chuckled deeply. “I don’t care about your reasons or excuses. Since you bear the title of a Shen family lady, please pay attention to your every word and action, don’t give people a reason to criticize you, and tarnish the family’s reputation!”
Shen Wan was amused by his repeated high-handed remarks. “I admit I didn’t come back last night. But even my older sister isn’t always at home when she’s busy. According to your logic, she’s also tarnishing the family’s reputation, isn’t she?”contemporary romance
“Ah Ru has property near the company, do you?”
“I don’t, but I know where there are hotels.”
Shen Qian’s gaze darkened. “So, you went to a hotel last night?”
“I was just giving an example.”
“In any case, there won’t be a next time!”
Shen Wan sneered, clearly not taking his words to heart.
The man’s gaze hardened, and he raised his hand to hold her chin. “Do you hear me?”

He suddenly tightened his grip. “Shen Wan, I’m asking you, do you hear me or not?!”
“Shen Qian, what gives you the right?” She enunciated each word through gritted teeth.
Meeting those stubborn and bright eyes, a trace of embarrassment flickered across the man’s face. “You want to gain the approval of the circle, and I went against everyone’s opinions to let you attend the anniversary party….”
