Chapter 595: 581, What did you hear (1)_1 Chapter 595: 581, What did you hear (1)_1 Jian Qing’s eyebrows arched slightly in amusement, “Bai Jue, you’re obviously jealous.”

“Heh!”

Bai Jue chuckled with disdain, “With the countless beauties in my harem, why would I be jealous of you? That’s a joke.”

“Get out of the way, don’t block my video.”

Jian Luo pushed him away with clear revulsion. Bai Jue, unprepared, almost tumbled off the sofa.

“Sis, when are you coming back?” Jian Luo asked.

Jian Qing watched Bai Jue’s frustrated expression and laughed softly, “A few more days.”

Upon hearing this, Jian Luo looked disappointed, “I see.”

“You should stop wearing that bothered expression.” Jian Qing teased him, “If Black Jack saw it, he’d think I bullied you.”

Jian Luo’s ears turned red, and he looked embarrassed. “Sis!”

“I can hear you, you don’t have to shout.” Jian Qing continued to tease him.

“Sis, I’ll chat with you later, grandpa is calling me.” Unable to win against his sister, he decided to retreat tactically.

The screen went black, and Jian Qing chuckled.

She turned around to meet a man’s deep gaze, smiled pulling up the corner of her lips, “Am I that scary?”

Quan Jingwu laughed softly. His finger traced her nose lightly, “Not at all.”

She smiled, “I thought so too.”

“It’s chilly outside. Let’s go inside.” Quan Jingwu suggested.

Just as the two returned to the living room, they saw Rhee and several others all dressed up and ready to go out.

“Little Qingqing, want to go with us to shop for New Year’s goods?” Upon seeing Jian Qing, Rhee quickly approached her, took her hand, and asked.

“Sister-in-law, let’s go together. There will be lots of delicious things to buy.” Quan Yifei tempted as she tied her scarf.

Jian Qing’s eyes sparkled with joy, “Sure.”

“I’ll accompany you.” Quan Jingwu warned, a hint of annoyance in his cold eyes.

“Jingwu, you don’t need to come. It’s not suitable for you to follow us women shopping.” Rhee said seriously.

If he came along, wouldn’t she feel his naturally cold presence all the way and even fail in holding Little Qingqing’s hand?

Quan Jingwu ignored her, keeping his gaze locked on Jian Qing.

Rhee was helpless and discreetly tried to signal to Jian Qing. Jian Qing’s lips curved slightly.

She looked up at Quan Jingwu, her eyes filled with amusement, “Xiaojing, stay at home and help out, mom and I will go shopping.”

Rhee nodded approvingly from the side.

Quan Jingwu reached out and gently patted her head, “I’ll get your coat for you.”

“Sure.”

In the car, Quan Yifei was driving, and Weng Ya sat beside her. In the back row, Rhee and Jian Qing sat together.

Jian Qing rolled down the car window. The streets were full of red lanterns and decorations, a festive mood was in the air.

Upon reaching the shopping center, the bustling crowd left Jian Qing somewhat bewildered.

She and Quan Jingwu both disliked such lively places. Along the way, she mostly followed quietly behind Rhee and the others, watching them shop for New Year’s goods.

In the underground garage, a figure in black quietly approached Quan Yifei’s car. He glanced at the surrounding cameras. His face was concealed behind a mask, and his mouth curved up into a cold smirk.

He ducked under the car, and after a while, he re-emerged.

The vibration from his phone echoed ominously in the silent garage.

The man took out his phone. A flash of respect crossed his face, obscured by the brim of his hat.

He hurriedly answered the call, “Master!”

It wasn’t clear what the person on the other end of the call was saying. The man lowered his voice, “Everything has been taken care of. I understand. It will not be noticed by anyone.”

After the call, the man adjusted his hat and quickly left the garage.

— Break —

All was silent. The sea wailed, and the wind roared.

The sound of waves echoed around the island and into the well-arranged villas on it.

“Knock, knock, knock–”

The rhythm of the knocking echoed like waves against the shore.

“Come in!”

The cold voice exuded a chilling aura, palpable even through a closed door.

The man’s long, well-proportioned fingers grasped the doorknob, he turned it gently, pushing the door open.

He walked in slowly, his footsteps barely audible.

The silent study room was filled with the faint aroma of ink.

He looked up, his gaze falling on the straight-lined figure in front of the desk.

“Brother!”

The man’s soft voice was like a gentle breeze in March.

A moment later, the office chair spun around, revealing a man under the light.

Shiny short black hair, slanted brows, sharp black eyes, clear-cut features covered in a layer of frost. Resembling an eagle in the night, cold, proud, and dominant.

Shen Hua, the man with the highest authority on the island.

“Ayan, didn’t you forget what I said last time? Who authorized you to leave the island repeatedly?” His aura turned cold and intimidating.

Shen Yan met his gaze. His agate-black eyes shone with a hint of darkness, “Brother, I heard it at the door just now.”

He got straight to the point without showing any fear.

Shen Hua’s eyes flashed with a spark of interest, “What did you hear?”

“Did you do something to her?” Shen Yan asked, his voice carrying a hint of anger.

Shen Hua asked, “What are you talking about?”

“Did you notice her a long time ago and have ideas about her again?” Shen Yan asked sharply, his usual calm demeanor shattered.

He should have guessed that he wouldn’t give up that easily. What he didn’t expect was that he still held onto that obsession after so many years.

They both owed her and couldn’t harm her dear ones. He wouldn’t let him do it, never.

Shen Hua’s face turned cold, “Shen Yan, watch your tone.”

“Brother, you hurt her before. Are you planning to make another mistake?” Shen Yan’s eyes revealed sadness as he asked.

“Seventeen years have passed. Can’t you let go of your obsession?”

Before he could finish his words, Shen Hua stood up abruptly, his hand slammed on the table.

“Bang–”

“Shen Yan, don’t forget, I’m your brother. I’m doing this all for who?”

Looking at his cold, dark eyes, Shen Yan smirked sarcastically. “Brother, don’t use me as an excuse. You know why you’re doing this.”

“Shen Yan!” Shen Hua exclaimed in displeasure.

“Brother, I’m begging you. Please don’t harm the people closest to her. Leave Jian Qing and Jian Luo alone.” Shen Yan softened his tone and begged.

Shen Hua’s cold gaze fixed on him. His eyes were full of displeasure. “So what will you do? The doctor already said you can’t delay any longer. A few years ago, I agreed not to touch those siblings because of you. Now, you’re begging me again. What should I do? Watch as you die?”

If it weren’t for him, he would have kidnapped the siblings long ago. How could he let them grow up? By now, their feathers had grown full.

Just thinking about them being the children of her and another man, he couldn’t help but want to kill the damned ones.
