Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Don’t you want to know how Cheng Taibo is doing?” After saying that, He Sijun reached out and pulled Sheng Jiu into the elevator. When Jiang Pan came back to his senses, the elevator door had already closed.

He was the one who had brought Sheng Jiu here, so he had to bring her back. Otherwise, the Sheng family would kill him. However… Jiang Pan shivered at the thought of Shen Xiuwen’s unpredictable personality. He did not want to have any contact with him, so he decided to wait for Sheng Jiu in the hall downstairs.

He Sijun dragged Sheng Jiu into the elevator and out of the elevator. He dragged her all the way to Shen Xiuwen’s room. His actions were done in one go, not giving Sheng Jiu any time to react. When Sheng Jiu came back to her senses, she was already in Shen Xiuwen’s room.

Shen Xiuwen came to open the door with a towel wrapped around him. His abs and calves were all exposed in front of Sheng Jiu, which was a feast for the eyes. Sheng Jiu clicked her tongue. This man always showed off his figure in front of her.

“Wow, Fourth Master, you’re being so showy today?” He Sijun whistled.

“I’m going to change.” Shen Xiuwen ignored He Sijun. When he came out again, he was already dressed like an elite in a white shirt and a pair of black pants. His aura was very strong. His gaze fell on Sheng Jiu, as if to confirm whether she was injured.

Sheng Jiu felt Shen Xiuwen’s scrutinizing gaze and subconsciously lowered her head. Previously, she had pretended to be injured and cried out in pain on the mountain. Now that he was staring at her, it was as if someone had torn off her mask.

“Fourth Master, your abdominal muscles are really handsome.” He Sijun did not notice the strange atmosphere between Sheng Jiu and Shen Xiuwen. He opened a bottle of beverage and looked at his cell phone. When he saw the news about Shen Xiuwen, he even teased him. Just now, Shen Xiuwen had walked into the club topless, causing waves of howls. A group of people had taken photos and boldly uploaded them online. Although the Shen Corporation’s public relations department had immediately informed Shen Xiuwen and cleaned up the news online, those few seconds of popularity were enough to make Shen Xiuwen’s photos fly all over the Internet. Fortunately, Sheng Jiu’s face was covered in mud at that time, so her face could not be seen. Therefore, the audience’s attention was focused on Shen Xiuwen. No one paid attention to Sheng Jiu. Fortunately, the Shen Corporation’s public relations department was very professional and did not involve Sheng Jiu. Otherwise, if Sheng Jiu was also trending, the Sheng family would have objections.

“They want to raise fish in Fourth Master’s collarbone… and surf on Fourth Master’s abs… Tsk tsk, these young people really dare to think about our Fourth Master’s body.” He Sijun read out the comments online and even expressed his thoughts.

“He Sijun, do you want to taste Fourth Master’s fist?” Shen Xiuwen asked lightly.

“I don’t want to, I don’t want to. I can’t withstand Fourth Master’s fist. However, Fourth Master, why did you take off your shirt and come back naked?” He Sijun was very puzzled. Why did Shen Xiuwen, who had always been obsessed with cleanliness and cared about his image, appear in public with his bare upper body?

“My shirt was dirty.” When Shen Xiuwen said this, he looked at Sheng Jiu indifferently.

He Sijun: “Wasn’t it not dirty when we left?”

“Fourth Brother carried me out of the forest, and I dirtied his shirt with the mud on my body.” Under pressure, Sheng Jiu quickly explained the truth.

“In that case, Sheng Jiu, our Fourth Master sacrificed so much because of you. How are you going to compensate him?” He Sijun teased Sheng Jiu.

“I’ll compensate Fourth Brother with a shirt and a racing car.” Sheng Jiu had already made up her mind. She would compensate for dirtying Shen Xiuwen’s shirt and car.

“You dirtied these things, so of course you have to compensate. But what about the compensation for Fourth Master’s mental damage? Our Fourth Master’s reputation is the most important.” He Sijun did not expect this Little Fool, Sheng Jiu, to be so clear-headed that she even knew how to compensate for dirtying things.

“Fourth Brother, what kind of compensation do you want, or how much do you want?” Sheng Jiu asked Shen Xiuwen. Shen Xiuwen did not want Sheng Jiu to compensate him. It was just a piece of clothing and a car. He did not know how many limited edition luxury cars he had under his name. But if Sheng Jiu said that she wanted to compensate him, then he wouldn’t mind accepting the compensation. After all, he also had to think about the mental trauma he had to endure.

“Mental damage is priceless. Sheng Jiu, are you sure you want to compensate me?” Shen Xiuwen said lightly. He wanted to see what this Little Fool Sheng Jiu could compensate him with.

“As long as Fourth Brother wants it, I can compensate you with whatever I can do.” Sheng Jiu still wanted to take the initiative. She could not let Shen Xiuwen decide everything, nor could she let him call the shots like Cheng Xinkai in her previous life. If this happened again, she would again end up in a miserable state. It was enough that the same thing happened once. She could not repeat the same mistake.
