“Pfft.” Xuan Sheng laughed. Back then, when he was investigating Xia Wanyuan’s information, he had not taken it seriously. He did not expect that Xia Wanyuan was actually Xia Yuanqing’s daughter.

However, this canary was quite an ambitious canary. The Xia family was so big, could this little canary eat it?

“Ask the investment department to come back. I’ll go there myself.”

Xuan Sheng retracted his legs from the table and threw the documents on the table. He picked up his coat from the back of the chair and strode out. His assistant hurriedly followed him.

“I don’t have any requests for you. Just do whatever you want.” Xia Wanyuan called Shen Qian to her office and discussed the company’s plans with him.

Shen Qian had a lot of experience. He started from scratch and the company developed from a small studio to having close to a thousand employees. Shen Qian knew basically every job well.

This meant that he was a leader who was extremely close to the bottom. This was extremely valuable to the higher management of the company.

Xia Wanyuan admired Shen Qian greatly. This person was ambitious but not greedy. He was capable and had a good character. He was a rare talent.

If not for the coincidence that allowed Xia Wanyuan to bump into him in his most pathetic state, Xia Wanyuan would never have the confidence to make such a talent work for her willingly.

While chatting with Xia Wanyuan, Shen Qian kept refreshing his understanding of this woman in front of him.

Xia Wanyuan had a big picture view that many people her age did not have. It was as if she was born to be in power, and she had the confidence to control anything and everything.

After half an hour, Shen Qian was already extremely convinced of Xia Wanyuan.

“Thank you for saving me from prison, Chairman Xia. To me, you’re equivalent to giving me a new life. I will work hard for you.”

After the company went bankrupt, he did not want to implicate his brothers who had followed him since graduation. After giving everyone a generous severance fee, he asked them to leave.

His girlfriend, who he had loved for many years, was already pregnant with his child, but she had proposed to break up with him at this moment.

From a privileged person to a successful entrepreneur, there were countless flowers on the way.

However, when he reached the lowest point, it was this woman who reached out to him.

Xia Wanyuan had given him a lot of power and almost had no restrictions on him. This made him very touched.

“If your performance this year reaches the target, I will give you 10% of the company shares.”

“This?!” Shen Qian was someone who had been tempered in the business world and had never been shocked by Xia Wanyuan’s spending.

The Xia family’s business was not small. Taking into account the 10% shares, it was actually much more valuable than the company he had founded. In the ten years he had been in the business world, he had never met such a boss.

“Do your job well. You and this company will be together for glory and for destruction. I believe in you.” Xia Wanyuan smiled at Shen Qian trustfully.

10% shares was indeed a lot, but compared to a loyal and capable manager, it was nothing.

From Shen Qian’s firm and grateful gaze, Xia Wanyuan knew that the shares she had given were worth it.

“Alright, I’ll leave the company to you in the future. A partner will come over later, I’ll go with you to take a look.”

Just as Xia Wanyuan finished her sentence, a message came from the front desk saying that the partner had arrived at the meeting room.

Xuan Sheng sat in the meeting room, twirling the pen in his hand.

The door creaked open. Xuan Sheng looked up and met a pair of familiar eyes.

Shen Qian?

Xuan Sheng recognized Shen Qian. They were both newcomers in the business world and were familiar with each other. Although Xuan Sheng had never interacted with Shen Qian before, he knew that he was a very capable young man.

Shen Qian pushed open the door but did not enter directly. Instead, he stood at the door and welcomed the person behind him.

Touching that pair of familiar peach blossom eyes, Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow.

“Miss Xia, what a coincidence.” Xuan Sheng found it interesting again. He knew Shen Qian. He had always been arrogant and very capable. How could he be so respectful to Xia Wanyuan? Moreover, he could tell that Shen Qian’s respect came from the bottom of his heart.

“Mr. Xuan.” Xia Wanyuan’s clear voice fell into Xuan Sheng’s ears. Xuan Sheng’s heart itched. It had been a few days since he had seen this little canary, and he actually found it exceptionally pleasant to listen to.

“I heard that Miss Xia has become a major shareholder. Congratulations.”

“Mr. Xuan, you have good eyes and ears.”

Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, the corners of Xuan Sheng’s lips curled up, and his eyes were filled with smiles. This little canary actually mocked him.

Xia Wanyuan looked straight into Xuan Sheng’s eyes. Xuan Sheng looked uninhibited, but the depth hidden in his peach blossom-shaped eyes could not be underestimated.

Xia Wanyuan sat opposite him, her aura not at all inferior.

Today, Xia Wanyuan was dressed in a black windbreaker, making her look extremely cold. Her originally noble temperament was accentuated.

“I’m here today because of the development of the mountain resort.”

Xuan Sheng was caught off guard and started to negotiate.

At this moment, he stopped being cynical and started talking about the contract he had signed with Father Xia in the past. He had a meticulous mind and strong logic.

“I’ve already finished my request. If there’s no problem, we can renew the contract or I can withdraw my investment directly.”

Xuan Sheng looked at Shen Qian. Shen Qian had just taken over the company and didn’t know much about the Xia family’s situation. However, from what Xuan Sheng said just now, there wasn’t much of a problem.

“How should the subsequent arrangements be divided?” Xia Wanyuan, who had been listening quietly, suddenly asked.

Shen Qian didn’t know much about the project, but Jun Shiling had once told Xia Wanyuan about this important project, so Xia Wanyuan quickly followed Xuan Sheng’s train of thought and found the problem with the contract.

Xuan Sheng looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise. His plan could be said to be perfect. Even Shen Qian could not see the flaws in this plan, yet Xia Wanyuan could point them out.

“Miss Xia, what do you think?” Xuan Sheng sat up straight and faced Xia Wanyuan, beginning to listen to her opinion seriously.

]”Since neither party is willing to take over the subsequent arrangements, why don’t…”

Xia Wanyuan explained the plan in an orderly manner according to her train of thought. The more Xuan Sheng listened, the brighter his eyes became.

“Miss Xia is truly unexpected.” After Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, Xuan Sheng applauded humbly. “Let’s do as Miss Xia suggested. Let’s have a pleasant cooperation.”

Who would have thought that Xuan Sheng, who was initially planning to withdraw his investment, had become the first client the Xia family company had to welcome after restarting?

After the meeting and both parties had signed their names, Xia Wanyuan prepared to leave.

Looking at Xia Wanyuan’s perfect profile as she lowered her head, Xuan Sheng’s eyes were filled with interest.

“Miss Xia.”

Xia Wanyuan raised her head. Her almond-shaped eyes were moist and her aura was clear.

“Miss Xia, have you raised canaries before? Canaries are quite interesting.” There was a smile in Xuan Sheng’s peach blossom-shaped eyes and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “I like them very much.”
