Shen Wan silenced her phone and closed her eyes. By the time she opened them again, the bus had reached its final stop, and it was the driver who eventually roused her from her nap.

“Miss…”

“Hmm?”

“We’ve arrived.”

She looked out the window and asked, “Where is this?”

The driver mentioned the place’s name.

“Oh, I’ve never heard of it.” She remained calm.

The driver sighed,”…”

Shen Wan took out two coins and handed them to him, “Could you please help me with the fare? I’ll go back.”

“There are still two buses in front of me, and we’re queuing up! If you want to go back, you’ll have to go to the front of the line,” the driver patiently explained.

Shen Wan thought for a moment, “Your car will have to go back the same way, right?”

“That’s right, but…”

“That’s fine then. I’m not in a hurry. I’ll wait in line. Oh, please help me with this…” Shen Wan handed him the coins.

The sympathetic driver gave her a look, thinking she was just another girl with a clouded mind due to a breakup.

“Alright, I’ll leave the air conditioning on for you. If you want to sleep, go ahead, but please don’t do anything foolish!”

Shen Wan raised an eyebrow in confusion.

Experiencing the sensation of riding a public bus, she returned to the place where she had boarded it by 4:30.

Without any hurry, Shen Wan hailed a taxi and gave the driver the address of her old residence.

During the ride, her phone received numerous calls, and its battery eventually died, shutting off automatically.

At 5:30, the taxi stopped at the large iron gate. Shen Wan got out of the car, still arriving at her destination forty minutes ahead of her usual time.

She couldn’t care less.

“I told you to come home quickly, but did you take my words lightly?”

Just as she was about to change her shoes, Shen Wan experienced a sudden tug on her right hand. Luckily, it was her wrist that got caught, sparing her injury from being touched. The interrogation began immediately, leaving her no time to respond.

The man held her delicate wrist, steadily tightening his grip. His once gentle eyes were now burning with anger. Although he tried to restrain himself, he couldn’t hide his irritation.

“Brother,” Shen Wan tugged at the corner of her lips, “now it’s my turn to ask you, can you hold back?”

The man’s body stiffened.

Shen Wan’s smile faded, and her expression turned completely cold. “Let go.”

He didn’t move.

“You’re making my injury worse”

The man furrowed his brow and instinctively loosened his grip. “What injury?”

Shen Wan pulled her hand free, took off her coat, and hung it on the coat rack. Her elbow, covered by gauze, was exposed to the man.

“What happened?”

“I fell.”

“What did the doctor say?” His frown deepened.

“I won’t die.”

“…When did it happen?”

Shen Wan replied calmly, “Two days ago.”

It was the night she didn’t return home.

Shen Qian fell silent.

Shen Wan walked past him into the living room and asked, “Why did you target Mingya?”

“A company that has been losing money for years announcing bankruptcy is reasonable,” Shen Qian said, glancing at her injured right hand, which was hidden under the bandage. He couldn’t tell how serious the injury was.

“So, it had to go bankrupt, not sooner, not later, but precisely when I took over. What do you intend?” Shen Qian’s expression darkened.

The two of them had reached the middle of the living room, where a few servants were cleaning. They perked up, their curious gazes directed at the siblings as they engaged in an unpleasant conversation.

Shen Qian’s face became even more somber. “Leave.”

Of course, he wasn’t addressing Shen Wan.

The servants quickly understood and filed out of the room.

“What’s going on with the Young Master?”

“It’s rare to see him losing his temper at home.”

“Even the Second Lady is afraid of the Young Master. Do you think the Third Lady will come out crying?”

“I heard something about ‘bankruptcy’ just now. Who’s going bankrupt?”

Where there are people, there’s gossip, and the servants were no exception.

Judging by the Young Master’s expression, it seemed that the Third Lady might not escape unscathed this time..
