Chapter 664: 650, Shen Yan’s Test (1)_1 Chapter 664: 650, Shen Yan’s Test (1)_1 It wasn’t until they had walked some distance that Ito Yukiko stopped in her tracks, turned to Ito Keiko and scolded, “Keiko, keep your feelings in check. Do you realize the expression you just showed may ruin our deal with JK International?”

“Sis, what’s gotten into you? I didn’t do anything.” Ito Keiko complained miserably.

“As a princess, you were shamelessly staring at someone else’s husband. Do you think this is appropriate?” Ito Yukiko chastised.

Ito Keiko firmly refused to admit her wrongdoing. She replied innocently, “Sis, I was just observing how affectionate CEO Quan and his wife are. I was just curious. You might be overthinking things.”

Knowing her personality all too well, Ito Yukiko didn’t feel like arguing with her, “Keiko, regardless of your intentions, if you’re thinking of getting involved with Jian Qing and her marriage, let me be clear, you have no chance.”

Ito Keiko bit her lip lightly, “Sis, are you fond of CEO Quan and worried that I will compete with you? Don’t worry, I have no such plans.”

From her perspective, Ito Yukiko’s efforts to get close to Jian Qing must be due to her attraction towards Quan Jingwu. She was trying to approach Quan Jingwu by cozying up with Jian Qing. After all, no woman in the world would be able to resist such a noble and perfect man.

Hearing her trying to turn the situation around, Ito Yukiko became fuming mad. Her voice became icy cold. “Ito Keiko, stop your nonsense. I’ve already warned you. Whether you listen or not is up to you.”

Once she finished speaking, she felt it was a waste of time even looking at her, and turned around to leave.

Taking a couple of steps, she paused and said without turning back, “There’s something you probably don’t know. Jian Qing is the new head of the Jian Family in M Country. If you dare to provoke her, the consequences will certainly be more than you can bear.”

Ito Keiko’s eyes widened as she watched her sister Ito Yukiko gradually walk away, remaining dazed for a long time.

“Young Master Shen, why didn’t Elder Master Shen come with you this time?” Ito Takahashi looked towards the man sitting in the wheelchair not far from him, his tone filled with respect.

Inside the spacious hall, a faint scent of tea permeated the air.

The man in the wheelchair held a white porcelain teacup. His handsome face was marked with the pallor of illness, and the occasional stern look in his eyes commanded respect.

He brought the teacup to his lips and took a sip before slowly saying, “My brother had some urgent matters to attend to, so he let me attend the banquet in his place.”

“I see. If there’s anything where we can attend to your needs, young Master Shen, please don’t hesitate to say,” Ito Takahashi replied with a hearty smile.

Shen Yan slowly curled his lips into a faint smile, expertly changing the subject, “I heard that the CEO of JK International has come here with his wife?”

Nodding, Ito Takahashi stroked his beard, “Our Ito Family has an important collaboration deal to discuss with JK International. CEO Quan holds all the cards.”

So, they needed to take good care of Quan Jingwu, lest they risk their upcoming deal slipping away.

With downcast eyes and long eyelashes casting a slight shadow, Shen Yan asked, “So, where are they?”

Living in the royal family, Ito Takahashi, who has seen countless people, easily detected Shen Yan’s interest in Quan Jingwu and his wife.

His gaze flickered slightly as he tentatively proposed, “This afternoon, our royal family arranged an event at the ranch. I’ve asked my daughter Yukiko to invite them. Young Master Shen, if you’re interested, you could also visit the ranch.”

Shen Yan quietly drank his tea, a veil of mist concealing his eyes made it hard for people to read his expression.

He didn’t speak, and Ito Takahashi didn’t push further, causing the atmosphere in the hall to become slightly awkward.

At this moment, a figure approached slowly from the door of the hall.

Ito Yukiko entered wearing a red kimono, the picture of elegance and propriety. Her hands crossed at her abdomen and her head slightly lowered, she spoke in a gentle voice, “Father, may I come in?”

“Come in.” Seeing Ito Yukiko, who could help break the awkward silence, Ito Takahashi quickly invited her in.

With light steps, Ito Yukiko walked into the hall. Seeing Shen Yan present, her eyes registered surprise.

She then inclined her body slightly towards Shen Yan, “Young Master Shen!”

Shen Yan nodded, responding with a faint smile.

Ito Yukiko turned back, looking up at the person in the higher position, “Father, I have just met CEO Quan and his wife.”

“Did you mention the horse race viewing to them?” Ito Takahashi subtly glanced at Shen Yan as he asked.

Ito Yukiko slightly shook her head, causing the hairpin among her locks to sway, “They refused.”

“Why, is there something they’re unhappy about with us?” Ito Takahashi asked, his voice dropping a tone.

“No, it’s because CEO Quan’s wife is pregnant, which makes things awkward for her,” Ito Yukiko explained.

“She’s pregnant?” Ito Takahashi exclaimed.

“Yes.”

Ito Takahashi certainly hadn’t expected that. But since they had refused, they couldn’t press the matter.

He looked to Shen Yan, somewhat hesitant, “What about you, Young Master Shen?”

“I’m feeling a bit unwell recently, so I’ll head over to the ranch this afternoon. Thank you, Ito Family Head, for your kindness.” Shen Yan put his teacup down and spoke in a warm and gentle voice.

Seeing the wheelchair he was seated upon, Ito Takahashi didn’t push the issue. He was perfectly aware of how much Shen Hua cherished his brother.

If anything occurred under his watch, he would have a hard time explaining.

“Young Master Shen, the view in our palace is beautiful. When you have time, you are welcome to wander and look around,” Ito Yukiko gently suggested.

Shen Yan hummed in confirmation and signalled to his assistant, A’er, with his eyes.

“Ito Family Head, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay long. We can discuss our collaboration another time.”

“Alright.” Ito Takahashi stood up and watched Shen Yan leave.

With an expressionless face, A’er nodded at Ito Takahashi, then steadily pushed the wheelchair out of the grand hall.

It wasn’t until they were well out of sight that Ito Yukiko asked, “Father, who was that young Master Shen? Why haven’t I seen him before?”

In the past, the one invited to their palace had always been Shen Hua, who got replaced this time.

“That’s Shen Hua’s twin brother; Shen Hua greatly values him,” Ito Takahashi explained, “In any case, we need to ensure he’s well taken care of and that he returns safely.”

Seeing the seriousness on his face, Ito Yukiko made a mental note of his words.

Ito Takahashi returned her gaze and looked toward her, “Yukiko, is there anything else?”

“Father, there’s something else which I’m not sure if I should share,” Ito Yukiko hesitated, looking at him.

“What is it?”

He was quite satisfied with Yukiko, his wife’s biological daughter, and her abilities.
