Hearing the noise, Qin Zhen turned in their direction and caught sight of Shen Qingyue’s figure. His pupils contracted slightly, and he walked briskly toward them with Wei Jiu’er in tow.

Upon hearing the words “President Qin,” Shen Qingyue’s eyes turned a bit colder.

Meanwhile, Yan Xi, intending to disgust Shen Qingyue, began to praise Qin Zhen and Wei Jiu’er, “I’ve heard that President Qin is a young talent. Seeing him today, he truly lives up to his reputation, pairing perfectly with Miss Yan! You two are indeed an ideal match!”

Shen Qingyue sneered, “Are you acting as the host here?”

Yan Xi choked. It was her first time attending such an event, and she was unclear about many things. All she could think of was to disgust people. Little did she know, she now seemed affected and artificial, especially since she was the center of attention, humiliating herself.

Qin Zhen kept his eyes fixed on Shen Qingyue, completely ignoring what Yan Xi was saying.

Wei Jiu’er was constantly attentive to Qin Zhen’s emotions and naturally noticed, yet she maintained a smile, “Miss Yan is being too kind. No, I should call you Miss Shen now; after all, you are the true heiress of the Shen family.”

Even though Yan Xi was naive, she sensed that Wei Jiu’er was similar to her in status. She immediately laughed, “Grandpa is in the hospital, so he hasn’t officially changed my surname yet. So, calling me Miss Yan is still acceptable for now. Once he does, you can address me as Yan Xi. But what about you, Sister Qingyue? How should people address you in the future?”

Shen Qingyue remained indifferent, “Indeed, it’s difficult to decide. So, just call me Qingyue. After all, you’re not worthy of the Shen surname.”

Yan Xi’s face turned ugly. “Qingyue, I am Grandpa’s true granddaughter, a child of the Shen family. When you say such things, it seems like you want to fight me for the family fortune…”

Shen Qingyue spoke frankly, “Yes, I do have that intention. What can you do about it?”

Upon hearing this, Yan Xi couldn’t maintain her smile any longer. “Shen Qingyue, Grandpa’s shares are all in my hands now. What can you use to compete with me? What qualifications do you have to fight with me? The Shen family originally belonged to me!”

There were many journalists present at the scene today. Yan Xi’s voice suddenly rose, and several reporters discreetly gathered towards them.

Yan Xi noticed the reporters approaching and tried to control her expression. “Qingyue, what I mean is, Grandpa has already given me the shares of the Shen Group in his hands. I am the largest shareholder of the Shen Group. Are you displeased with me saying these things? I know you don’t like my presence, but I am innocent too…”

Shen Qingyue smirked, her expression ambiguous. “Are you unaware of whether I’m pleased with you or not?”

Yan Xi couldn’t believe Shen Qingyue dared to speak like this, especially in front of the reporters.

Shen Qingyue turned and walked away without wasting more words on her.

“Shen Qingyue!” Qin Zhen had been watching her the whole time. Seeing her leaving, he instinctively wanted to stop her. But then, he fell silent because he didn’t know what else he could say to her.

Shen Qingyue sneered, “What advice do you have, President Qin?”

Qin Zhen struggled to find the right words, “Yan Xi is the true heiress of the Shen family. What she said is not wrong. The Shen Group originally belonged to her. It doesn’t seem appropriate for you to fight with her.”

Although he came up with this on the spot, it had always been his sentiment.

Regardless, Shen Qingyue had occupied the position of the Shen family’s Young

Miss for over 20 years, essentially stealing twenty years of Yan Xi’s life. Now that things were back where they belonged, what grounds did Shen Qingyue have to make a fuss?

“President Qin, if you can’t speak properly, just keep your mouth shut. No one needs your opinion,” Shen Qingyue spoke slowly and calmly, “Shen family matters don’t concern you, an outsider.”

Qin Zhen’s expression was complicated. “Am I an outsider?”

Shen Qingyue countered, “What do you think you are? What does the Shen family’s business have to do with you? You know nothing, yet you’re here voicing your opinions. It seems like you have a lot to say, doesn’t it!”

Qin Zhen stuttered, “You…” But he knew they were already divorced. The Shen family’s matters had nothing to do with him. Still, hearing her explicitly deny their connection made him uncomfortable.

Shen Qingyue glanced at Wei Jiu’er, who was standing beside Qin Zhen with a dark expression.

“President Qin, speaking so intimately with your ex-wife in front of your fiancee, aren’t you afraid she might get the wrong idea? Or perhaps…” She mocked him slightly, “Are you naturally inclined to be cheap, Qin Zhen? Do you enjoy disappointing the people around you? Is it that domestic flowers lack the charm of wild ones?”

Qin Zhen could not bear it anymore, but Shen Qingyue did not give him a 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝑏𝓃𝑜𝑣𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

chance to speak. She retorted sharply and walked away.

In Shen Qingyue’s opinion, Qin Zhen was indeed being cheap.. If he didn’t provoke her, everything would be fine, wouldn’t it?
