Chapter 93 - 93: Selling and Marrying Daughter

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shen Wan’s peaceful days didn’t last too long because—

Suddenly, Shen Zongming returned home.

In the afternoon, Shen Wan received a summons to the study. Strictly speaking, it marked the first occasion she had a one-on-one conversation with her grandfather, Old Master Shen.

“Grandfather.”

“Do you know what people are saying about the Shen family in public?”

Shen Wan shook her head, her gaze calm.

Facing Shen Chunjiang, she could play soft and submissive to gain his sympathy, but facing Shen Zongming, she knew that wouldn’t work. She had to stand strong; otherwise, she would be at his mercy.

Because her grandfather’s resolve was even stronger and more unyielding than her father’s.

At this moment, Shen Wan appeared outwardly gentle, but there was a glint of stubbornness in her eyes. She was like a swaying plant in the wind, holding onto the soil firmly, with her stem straight.

Shen Zongming couldn’t help but give her an extra glance. In his memory, this granddaughter of his had skilled hands for embroidery but tended to be too introverted, appearing somewhat dull and rigid for her age. However, now, she gazed at him with an extreme calmness, accentuated by a hint of sharpness in her eyes.

Shen Zongming’s expression darkened suddenly, as he deliberately intensified his aura of authority. Yet, the young girl remained steadfast, her eyes possessing a purity that was almost pristine, a bright shade of black with a subtle touch of depth.

Old Master Shen was somewhat surprised, but more importantly, he felt… excited. Nevertheless, he maintained a stern expression and asked, “It’s been rumored outside that the Shen family wants to use you to win the favor of Quan Ranting in exchange for benefits. What are your thoughts on this?”

While Shen Wan had already guessed that the events at the party wouldn’t be easily overlooked, especially when it involved someone like Quan Ranting, she didn’t expect the rumors to be this harsh, even implicating the entire Shen family.

She thought to herself, “This is fantastic!”

“I don’t really understand these matters, and 1 don’t have much of an opinion,” Shen Wan said softly, her eyelids drooping slightly, appearing obedient and well-behaved.

However, Shen Zongming wasn’t willing to let it go. “It’s okay; just speak your mind.”

After a moment of contemplation, the young girl said, “1 believe that the Shen family wouldn’t abandon their principles and integrity to seek temporary gains, nor would Quan Ranting compromise his principles for one woman, no matter how much she catches his eye. So, regardless of what people are saying, it’s all empty talk without any evidence.”

“So, your suggestion is to let it be?”

Shen Wan shook her head. “I’d like to say, don’t pay it much mind. As for whether we should intervene or not, that’s your decision to make.”

Shen Zongming smiled, taking a closer look at his granddaughter for the first time. “You’re very clever, and you know how to strike a balance.”

The young girl quickly wore an expression of pleasant surprise, striking the right balance to cater to her grandfather’s modest ego without compromising her own dignity.

Certainly, the Shen family wouldn’t resort to trading their daughter for prestige, and Quan Ranting wouldn’t be foolish enough to agree to such a proposition. But what if it’s not about selling a daughter but getting her married?

Shen Wan’s eyelids twitched.

Old Master Shen continued, “1 heard that on the night of the party, Quan Ranting personally invited you to dance the opening dance, and after it ended, he followed you as you left the scene. Is that true?”

“…Yes.”

Given that he’s interested in you, and you don’t have any aversion to him, why not think about nurturing this into a romantic relationship?

It wasn’t about being lovers, not a casual fling, and not a sex partner available at his beck and call. Shen Zongming was actually suggesting that she pursue a legitimate relationship with Quan Ranting!

Shen Wan was momentarily stunned. She was both surprised and amused.

Should she say that Shen Zongming was too naive, or was he just too confident?

What gave him the right to manipulate Shen Wan? And where did he get the confidence that Quan Ranting would definitely take the bait?
