Shen Qingqiu raised his eyebrows slightly and held his cell phone on the table, "Mr. Shang, are you here to ask me for a crime?"

"In your eyes, I am the kind of person who can't tell the difference between right and wrong and can't tell the truth clearly?!" Shang Jingzhou smiled gently on the corner of his mouth, and he walked to the single sofa in the rest area to sit down.

Shen Qingqiu looked at him, with a cramped smile in his eyes, "People can change."

What's more, she broke the plan for the merchant to marry. Even though Shang Jingzhou and Mr. Shang would not say anything, the rest of the merchant could not be relieved.

Shang Jingzhou looked at her, and a hole flashed through his eyes, "Marriage is just a means, not the only way out for merchants."

The implication is that the successful marriage between the merchant and the Pei family is just an icing on the cake.

Shen Qingqiu was not surprised to hear his words.

Merchants are at least one of the four major families. If the family’s rise and fall are completely dependent on marriage, then merchants do not have to participate in this chamber of commerce.

"Why did it come so late?" Shen Qingqiu raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

Shang Jingzhou said: "I have a social event before going out."

As he said that, he pulled out a rectangular velvet box from his pocket.

The lid is opened and there is a bracelet with various gemstones inside.

Under the light, the gemstone reflects a colorful and gorgeous light.

"I accidentally saw a bracelet that suits you very well, so I bought it." Shang Jingzhou noticed Shen Qingqiu's slightly frowning brows, but did not give her a chance to refuse. He said in a gentle voice: "We haven't seen each other for so long, just treat it as a gift I gave you. There is no need to have any psychological burden. Come on, I'll help you put it on."

Shen Qingqiu pursed her lips and did not stretch out her hand for a long time, "Mr. Shang..."

"Qingqing, do you have to see me like this?" Shang Jingzhou looked up at her, and a look of injury flashed through his eyes. "You are following me and Azhao, and they call me Brother Jingzhou."

Speaking of this, Shen Qingqiu had no choice but to let him wear a bracelet for him.

Her fair wrists are surrounded by bracelets inlaid with various gemstones, making them even more colorful under the light.

A smile melted in Shang Jingzhou's eyes, "It really suits you."

In the conference room.

People from the four major families are discussing the business territory behind Haicheng.

Sitting in the main seat, Fu Tingshen crossed his legs, held his hands together on his legs, his posture was indifferent, and his body exuded a terrifying sense of oppression, which made people dare not take it lightly.

The people present knew that if the Fu family in Independent Province wanted to interfere in Haicheng's business, they could not stop them.

But the man in front of me is different.

The Huasheng Group he currently controls seems to be not as large as the Qin Group, but it involves many industries under its name.

Whether it is emerging industries or traditional industries, they are comparable to the Qin family in the business world.

It is no exaggeration to say that he has the local economic reputation in his hands.

Everyone was waiting for Fu Tingshen to make one or two opinions in a timely manner.

But Fu Tingshen stared at his phone all the way, and a vague chill flashed deep in his eyes, which made the atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly become solemn.

Everyone exchanged glances with each other inexplicably, only Mr. Shang looked proud.
