Chapter 91 Playthings
It was rare for Shen Que to handle business at the media company today and not go to the new headquarters of Shen Group.
He leaned back in the large boss chair, his white shirt sleeves casually rolled up to his elbows, revealing his sturdy forearms.
He was looking through a report.
The office door was knocked twice symbolically and then pushed open.
"elder brother!"
Shen Nian'an flew in like a cheerful little bird.
Her face was filled with the charming smile that she only showed when facing her brother. There was no trace of the arrogance and coldness she had shown in Lin Shu's lounge.
She walked over to the huge desk, placed her hands on the polished surface, leaned forward slightly, and her big eyes flickered: "What are you busy with?"
"Will you have dinner with me?"
Shen Que raised his eyes and saw his sister, a sincere smile appeared on his face.
He put the report down casually and asked: "Why are you here?"
"What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."
Shen Nian'an walked around to the back of the desk, naturally half-leaned on the armrest of Shen Que's boss chair, and pulled his arm.
She said in a coquettish tone: "Whatever, listen to me."
"but……"
She changed the subject and asked casually, "Brother, I heard that Brother Chengyu hasn't been visiting Yunque much lately?"
"You still come home on time every day? Is that true?"
Shen Que's eyes dodged for a moment.
"Huh? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
He avoided the important issues.
"Oh, I'm just curious!" Shen Nian'an shook his arm, his voice delicate and soft.
"I heard that Brother Chengyu seems to have changed his personality?"
"Brother, you have the best relationship with Brother Chengyu, you must know!"
"Is he...hiding a mistress in his golden house?"
She asked innocently, but her eyes were fixed on Shen Que.
Shen Que looked at the curiosity on his sister's face, as well as the nervousness behind the curiosity, and felt inexplicably irritated.
He didn't want Nian An to know about Su Qianqian's existence, and he didn't want Nian An to target the girl who was too clean.
Even Su Qianqian's existence is indeed an obstacle to Nian An's plan to marry into the Gu family.
"cough."
Shen Que cleared his throat, his tone nonchalant and frivolous, "Cheng Yu has a new person by his side, who is very caring. He has indeed been staying at home recently."
He observed his sister's reaction, and when her smile faded, he immediately added, "But it's just a prettier canary. The novelty hasn't worn off yet."
"Nian'an, remember what I said. No matter how beautiful a bird is, it can't fly into the family of a true tycoon."
Shen Que looked at Shen Nian'an's still angry eyes and knew that she didn't listen.
His tone became serious, with a tone of admonition: "The Gu family, the Shen family, the Zhou family, the Qin family... a few generations ago, they were all aristocratic families that valued lineage and had strict rules."
"Although the old rules are mentioned less frequently in the decades since the new era, the things deep down cannot be changed."
"A woman you love and a wife you marry are two completely different things."
"Even if Cheng Yu dotes on her now, he's just keeping her as a toy for fun. She can't threaten your position."
Shen Que didn't want his sister to be confused when Cheng Yu was in a bad mood. That would be too worthless.
Not only will you offend people, but you will also let others take advantage of you.
His eyes sharpened, with a warning in them: "So, Nian'an, don't touch Cheng Yu's people."
"I'll get you anything you want, as long as you're obedient, okay?"
Shen Nian’an listened to his brother’s words and lowered his eyelashes, his long eyelashes covering the haze in his eyes.
Her nails quietly pinched the palm of her hand, causing a stinging pain, and the jealousy and resentment that was churning in her heart were forcibly suppressed.
She wasn't particularly bright.
But Shen Nian'an knew very well that everything she had today, and the fact that she could stand out in the socialite circle, was not due to her biased father, but to her brother in front of her, who was ruthless and had firmly controlled the Shen family's emerging industries.
To her, her brother’s words are like an imperial decree!
Since my brother said so, it means he is sure.
The woman hiding in Brother Chengyu's house was just a plaything in the end.
She took a deep breath, and when she raised her head again, her face was covered with a sweet and innocent smile again, as if the temptation and resentment just now had never existed.
"I know, brother!" Her voice was sweet and crisp, full of trust.
"I'll listen to you, brother. I don't care what kind of canaries Chengyu raises. I'll be the one standing by his side in the end anyway!"
She silently recited the principles her brother had taught her: Take it slow! The result will be perfect!
It doesn't matter, she can wait.
When Brother Chengyu loses interest in that bitch, she will have plenty of time and means to make that ignorant thing disappear without a trace.
"That's right."
Chen Que looked at his sister's instantly brightened face, smiled with satisfaction, reached out and rubbed her hair, and said lovingly, "Let's go, what do you want to eat?"
"Brother, take you to that newly opened French restaurant?"
"Okay, okay!"
Shen Nian'an immediately became excited and held Shen Que's arm affectionately, as if the topic about Gu Chengyu just now was just an insignificant chat between siblings, and she had thrown it out of her mind in the blink of an eye.
She chattered about what dishes she would order later, looking carefree.
Shen Que let her hold his arm, a smile on his lips, but a hint of complexity flashed through his eyes.
I hope...
That Su Qianqian was really just a plaything that Cheng Yu picked up on a whim.
Otherwise, he didn't know what he would do.
