Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

Chapter 85: Picking Up a Person

The ink bamboo on Xia Wanyuan’s paper was thin and tall. Its branches were proud and snow-white, and it looked as if it was made up of a noble man’s heroic spirit. It was not something to be trifled with.

A top-notch painting, the object in the painting, was a fusion of the artist’s state of mind. From Xia Wanyuan’s ink bamboo, one could clearly sense the integrity in her heart.

The signature was signed off with the words’ Yuan Wanxia ‘.

Elder Zhong happily took Xia Wanyuan’s calligraphy and painting away. He wanted to take a look more, but he didn’t.

It was almost noon. Madam Zhong had wanted to ask Xia Wanyuan to stay for lunch, but something had cropped up at the office.

Having never eaten at a university campus before, Xia Wanyuan ordered a meal in the canteen.

As she arrived early, most of the students had not ended their classes. There were very few people in the canteen. Xia Wanyuan sat in a cubicle in the corner of the canteen with a tray of food.

“I’m sorry, brothers. Back then, we were classmates. Everyone trusted me. We started our first step in this place. Now that the company has failed, everyone here will drink this glass of wine and treat it as a closure.”

The cubicle was not very soundproof, so Xia Wanyuan could clearly hear the conversation in the private room next door.

“Brother Shen, if not for their power and influence, with your ability, how could you not win against them?!”

“Alright, they’ve already sued me in court. I won’t be able to win the lawsuit. I sold the property, divided it into six parts, and transferred it to your account. In the future, find a stable job.” The person who spoke seemed to be extremely depressed, and there was obvious fatigue in his voice.

“Brother Shen!” The others wanted to say something else, but they were stopped.

“Here, drink this.”

The sound of glasses clinking could be heard. Even though the others were extremely reluctant, Brother Shen still resolutely chased everyone away.

Xia Wanyuan was forced to listen to the entire conversation. She slowly chewed on the food in her mouth.?This person called Brother Shen was quite responsible.

In the private room next door, everyone left. Shen Qian leaned against the window and looked at the juniors coming and going on the school path.

Ten years ago, he was once the pride of this school.

At the beginning of his graduation, he gathered a group of ambitious classmates who had the same thoughts and set up their own company.

In the past ten years, he had not slept well almost every night and had spent all his energy and effort on the company.

Fortunately, his hard work had paid off. His company’s performance rose steadily. As a new talent in the industry, his rise naturally attracted the attention of some established corporations.

The market was only so big, and his company’s performance was getting bigger and bigger, which inevitably violated the interests of others.

During a recent bid, because of the land that he was bidding on, the company that competed with him had spent a lot of money to bribe his employees and steal the proposal.

They had even framed the accusation that the finance department was faking it and sued him in court.

The other party was rich and had made sufficient preparations. He had no means of retaliating.

At the thought of this, Shen Qian clenched his fists. He had been conscientious all these years and had done every project he had, but all he had received in return was wasting years of hard work and a boundless prison life.

At this moment, his phone lit up and a message popped up.

“Brother Shen, I don’t want to give birth to the child. I’m sorry.”

Shen Qian read the message and her eyes turned gloomy. It was as if the last light in his life had been extinguished.

In just a few seconds, Shen Qian looked as if he had changed into a different person. His face was filled with a deathly aura, making it impossible for anyone to think that this person was the high-spirited president of the campus ten years ago.

“What was the name of your previous company?”

A clear female voice suddenly came from above.

Shen Qian suddenly raised his head. An extremely beautiful woman was standing in front of him, standing in a dazzling manner. Her entire person was like the first snowflake on the peak of a snow mountain. She had a hint of coldness, but she was also extremely mysterious and moving.

“You are?” Shen Qian frowned in confusion.

“We’ll meet in a while. Tell me first, what was the name of your original company?” Xia Wanyuan pulled out a chair and sat opposite Shen Qian.

“Hui Yue Technology.”

Although the woman in front of him appeared out of nowhere and the questions she asked were also baffling, Shen Qian felt a calming force from her, making him trust this person a little more in his heart.

Xia Wanyuan took out her phone and searched for Hui Yue Technology. A lot of reports were released.

As the CEO of Hui Yue Technology, Shen Qian naturally had a lot of information. Xia Wanyuan picked a few and read them.

Seeing that the beautiful woman before her was looking at her phone after asking for the company’s name, Shen Qian asked curiously, “Excuse me, what’s the matter?”

After Xia Wanyuan finished reading the information about Shen Qian, she raised her head and looked straight into Shen Qian’s eyes.

“I’ll save you from prison.”

Shen Qian’s eyes widened abruptly, but then he frowned tightly. “I don’t think I have anything else worth your help? Besides, I don’t believe you have such great ability.”

Xia Wanyuan looked at Shen Qian, who was still thinking calmly despite being extremely depressed. She was impressed.

Xia Wanyuan did not bring any documents with her, so she searched for the Xia family’s company on her phone and showed the company’s situation to Shen Qian. “This company is bankrupt.”

“I know.” The Xia family was considered a rather large corporation in the industry, so Shen Qian naturally knew about it.

“I’ll be the biggest shareholder of the Xia family next week, and I’ll be injecting it with 60 million dollars. I need a manager.”

“Everything you say is incredible.” Shen Qian had never seen anyone as good-looking as Xia Wanyuan, nor had he ever seen someone so inexplicable. However, looking at those eyes that were as clear as ice, Shen Qian said word by word, “But I want to believe you.”

People said that the eyes were the windows to the soul. From Xia Wanyuan’s eyes, Shen Qian could see the confidence to control everything.

“Leave me your number.” Seeing how straightforward Shen Qian was, Xia Wanyuan felt that she had not misjudged him.

“See you at the Xia family company next Tuesday at 10 pm.” After receiving Shen Qian’s number, Xia Wanyuan stood up and left.

When he got home, if not for the string of numbers that appeared on his phone, Shen Qian would have suspected that he was hallucinating.

But no matter what, he secretly hoped that this woman would bring him light, even though he still did not know her name.

Until Monday night, Shen Qian did not receive a call from Xia Wanyuan. Shen Qian looked at the night sky outside the window and laughed at himself. As expected, he was imagining things.

The phone rang.

“Hey! Brother Shen, did you know?! The other party withdrew the lawsuit! !…”

“….”

The next day, at the entrance of the Xia family company, a man in a suit looked up at the building with determination and ambition.
