On that night, at the Huan Wolf Club.
When He Huai arrived, there was only Shen Qian in the private room. He looked around and asked, “Where’s Qin Zeyan?”
He wasn’t foolish enough to ask about Song Lin.
“I didn’t call Zeyan,” Shen Qian said as he took a clean wine glass, poured it to three-quarters full, and handed it to He Huai. “How does it taste?”
“Pretty good, 1 assume it’s a decent vintage?”
Shen Qian chuckled lightly. “Better than the Chateau Petrus you had last time?”
He Huai, of course, wouldn’t admit his wine was inferior. He replied seriously, “Each has its own merits.”
Shen Qian didn’t pursue the matter further about the wine. Instead, he casually remarked, “I saw your car at the Guangsha Office Building today.”

“Take it slow; no one’s competing with you.”
He Huai’s cheeks turned red from choking, and he avoided eye contact, “Um… you saw it all?”
“Saw what?”
“All Qian…” He put away his playful expression and suddenly became earnest. “I quite like Wan Wan.”
Shen Qian’s expression remained unchanged, but his grip on the highball glass subtly tightened.
“Like her? But didn’t I hear that you were entangled with a female student from Ning Da just last month?”
“That was…”
“That was what?” Shen Qian turned to look at him, his gaze carrying a chill, and a hint of dominance.
He Huai knew he was reckless and never felt ashamed of it, but now he suddenly felt that he wasn’t presenting himself well in front of Shen Qian. It seemed like he was being overshadowed, and he couldn’t catch his breath.
“I broke up with her a long time ago.”
“So?”
He Huai met his gaze. “1 now have the right to pursue Wan Wan.”
“Right?” Shen Qian lightly chuckled, seemingly unimpressed. “You’re so particular that even when you have plenty of options, you insist on choosing the absolute best one?”
He Huai might be naive, but he wasn’t foolish. He naturally detected the suspicion in Shen Qian’s words. “I’m serious.”
Shen Qian raised his glass and took a sip of red wine, his tone indifferent. “How long can your seriousness last?”

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“I can’t guarantee what will happen in the future; no one can predict the things that haven’t occurred yet. But for now,” He Huai emphasized each word, “I am absolutely certain that the person 1 want to spend the rest of my life with is Shen Wan.”
“You have a sudden whim, but you want her to pay for it with her lifelong happiness. What makes you think you can do that?”
He Huai furrowed his brow, looking at him with suspicion. “Why do 1 feel like you’re acting strangely today?”
Shen Qian’s gaze flickered slightly, and he covered his momentary lapse in composure with a sip of wine. Soon, his emotions settled. “I’m not ordering you. I don’t care about other women, but Shen Wan is off-limits.”

Shen Qian’s expression froze briefly.
“Sooner or later, Wan Wan will date someone. Why can’t she give me a chance? If we end up getting married, you’ll become my brother-in-law. That sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?” He Huai said, a hopeful smile lighting up his face as he imagined the future.
Shen Qian clenched the base of the glass, tightening his grip continuously, and then…snap!
“Damn! How did it break?” He Huai stood up in surprise. “You didn’t cut yourself, did you?”
“You two aren’t suitable.” Shen Qian tossed the broken glass aside and grabbed a tissue nearby to press on the scratched area. Soon, fresh red bloodstains soaked through. However, the expression on his face remained ice-cold, as if he wasn’t the one injured.
“All Qian, I don’t understand…”
“No need to understand, just do as I say.”
“Sorry.” He Huai lowered his gaze, “I might not be able to do that.”
Their conversation ended on an unfriendly note.
Shen Qian left first, and He Huai followed suit, exiting the club’s gates. He found his car and didn’t even care if the hood was clean; he just leaned against it.
The night breeze dispersed the scent of alcohol, and He Huai’s expression became clearer. The full moon hung high in the sky. He Huai stared at it blankly.. “That’s your sister, isn’t it?”
