Chapter 147 - 147: You Don’t Like the Bracelet?
A wall lamp in the living room cast a faint, warm glow in the darkness, creating a dim halo.
Shen Qian changed into slippers and walked to the staircase. Unexpectedly, he heard a soft rustling sound coming from the kitchen. He casually draped his coat over the railing and followed the sound.
As he passed through the dining room, he could vaguely see some light. When he entered the kitchen, he discovered that the refrigerator door was wide open, and a slender figure was standing in front of it. The person had their back to the entrance, vigorously trying to unscrew the cap of a mineral water bottle.
Shen Wan paused, suddenly sensing the gaze from behind. She abruptly turned around, only to be met with the deep eyes of a man.
Their eyes locked, and neither of them spoke.
“Hand it over.” In the end, it was Shen Qian who broke the silence, extending his hand toward her. “The mineral water.”
Shen Wan had struggled to open the bottle several times, but in his hands, it became effortless. “Here you go.”
“Thank you.”
As she reached out to take it, Shen Qian’s gaze swept over her fair wrist, delicate and slender, but empty.
“Don’t you like the bracelet?”
Shen Wan hesitated for a moment. “It’s very beautiful.”
“Then why don’t you wear it?”
“It’s not convenient for work.”
“Starting tomorrow, wear it!” His tone was authoritative, leaving no room for argument.
Shen Wan frowned.
The man chuckled softly and reached to tuck a stray strand of her hair behind her ear. “Listen to me.”
“What if I don’t?”
Shen Qian remained calm and said, “Since you didn’t wear it because it’s inconvenient at work, does that mean you’ll wear it willingly if you don’t have to work?”
“Are you threatening me?”
“It could be seen that way.”

He chuckled softly, releasing her hand from its clenched position, smoothing it gently. His gaze was tender. “Wan Wan, 1 don’t ask for much. You’re very smart; you should know how to choose.” With that, he turned and left, gradually blending into the darkness.
Shen Wan stood in place, her eyes filled with uncertainty.
The following day, after having breakfast, Shen Wan headed to the garage to fetch her car. As she settled into the driver’s seat, the passenger door swung open, and the man smoothly joined her, finding his place. “This car is impressive.”
Shen Wan’s gaze turned cold. “Shen Qian, what exactly are you trying to do?”
“Call me ‘Brother’.”

“My car is in for maintenance, and it’s still early. Do you mind giving your ‘big brother’ a lift to the company?” He emphasized the words ‘big brother’ as if he were making a point.
Madman!
“And…” Shen Qian fastened his seatbelt. “You haven’t taken my words to heart.” Her wrist remained empty.
“Wan Wan…” He looked directly into her eyes, his gaze intense. “I don’t joke around.”
Gritting her teeth, Shen Wan reached into her bag, took out a velvet box, and threw it into his lap. “Here—take it back. I don’t want it!”
Shen Qian paused, then chuckled softly. His pleasure was evident, making him appear even more gentle. “So, you’ve been carrying it with you…”
He had spontaneously entered her car, and she must have intentionally put the bracelet back in her bag. There was only one possibility—
“In the future, you don’t have to hide it from your family. Even if they ask, you can tell them the truth.” Shen Qian took the Ares Tears from the box and personally put it on Shen Wan’s wrist. “If All Yan causes trouble, I will definitely handle her.”
Shen Wan sneered, “Handle her? Will you bear to? She’s your blood sister.”
The man didn’t even lift his head. “So are you. Well, it looks beautiful.”
As Shen Wan pulled her hand back when he released it, the platinum chain gleamed in the sunlight, complementing the sparkling diamonds, creating a radiant display.
She glanced at it only briefly and then looked away.
The red Maserati smoothly left the Shen family’s old mansion, heading towards the city center..
