Shen Jiazhou snorted: "What kind of robber is so polite that he even says thank you after robbing someone?"
However, after glancing at Wen Shuqiao's fair palm, he slowly took off his wristwatch and placed it in her palm: "This is the most valuable thing I own. Here you go, kind robber, please let me go."
Wen Shuqiao was just joking. Looking at the watch in her palm, which had some weight to it, and which still carried the warmth of Shen Jiazhou's body, she realized that it was a genuine piece of jewelry.
She blinked: "Actually, I was just kidding."
"These days, you can't joke about robbery, can you?" Shen Jiazhou glanced at her sideways. "Or do you think my watch isn't worthy of your robbery?"
Although it wasn't as expensive as his treasured watch, it still cost him several hundred thousand yuan when he bought it, and it's definitely the most expensive thing he owns now.
He didn't bring his card.
Wen Shuqiao casually remarked, "Hmm? Isn't the most expensive one President Shen himself?"
Only after she finished speaking did she realize what she had said that was so careless!
Her ears started to burn, and when she looked up, she met Shen Jiazhou's probing gaze, as if to say, "You still say you're not after his good looks!"
Wen Shuqiao opened her mouth, but realized she would have been better off not saying anything. She touched the watch and shoved it back to Shen Jiazhou, awkwardly changing the subject: "Well, it's just that, um, the Shen family didn't ask you to go back?"
Both Mr. and Mrs. Shen came to visit, but Old Master Shen remained silent.
Wen Shuqiao had wanted to ask before, but she was afraid that Shen Jiazhou would be unhappy. But now she was really anxious and dared to talk about anything.
Looking at her trying to remain calm, Shen Jiazhou's smile deepened. He put the watch back on his wrist, looked at it, and thought, "Hmm, this watch looks really good today."
She then replied, "I don't know, I removed my SIM card and didn't reinstall it."
Wen Shuqiao had been looking at the road ahead, but upon hearing Shen Jiazhou's words, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at him.
Meeting his smiling eyes, Shen Jiazhou felt inexplicably good. He said, "There are other ways to find me besides calling. The Shen Group has a lot of things to do right now, so it's probably not time for them to contact me yet."
What's the point of contacting him? He's sold all his shares and issued his resignation papers. There's no use in contacting him now. Their more urgent task is to keep the others on their toes.
The president's departure is no small matter, especially considering Shen Jiazhou's recent rise to power. Backed by the Shen family and possessing considerable ability, his sudden departure has everyone watching closely.
But none of this matters to Shen Jiazhou anymore. The only thing he can do for the Shen family now is not to add fuel to the fire. As for the rest, let them do what they want.
Wen Shuqiao gave a dry "Oh," and said, "Well, that's pretty good."
What's so good about it...? She doesn't even know what she's good about.
Shen Jiazhou, however, seemed to have discovered something new. He couldn't help but look at Wen Shuqiao every few steps, and then he chuckled to himself, though he didn't know what he was laughing about.
