The wind was very strong in the evening and the sky was gloomy as if it was going to rain.

Yuan Ye was sleeping soundly in his dormitory. The dean specially called a doctor to give him an IV drip. Yuan Xiaoqi was still lying beside his bed, guarding him, and fell asleep unknowingly.

It was not late yet, but the lights were already on, and the entire flower box was immersed in a quiet atmosphere.

Even though there were still sounds of children laughing and making noise, it was as if covered by a gray filter, and all the human voices became blurred. Only the rustling of wind and plants was clear.

In the deserted yard, the windows of the studio were closed and no one knew where Ye Kong had gone.

Wen Can was sitting under the eaves when he suddenly heard someone say, "It's going to rain."

He turned his head and saw Tu Wan walking towards him.

She didn't look at him, but looked at the sky, walked slowly towards him and stopped beside him.

Wen Can withdrew his gaze, showing no intention of responding and a very cold expression.

Tu Wan glanced at him and suddenly smiled: "It's amazing. Half a year ago, I wouldn't have dared to imagine that Master Wen, who always treated people with impeccable manners and was known for his gentleness and power, would actually have a day when he would ignore everyone..."

Wen Can still didn't speak, as if there was no one around him.

Tu Wan didn't mind though.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Did you know that Wen's company has been holding shareholder meetings frequently recently?"

"..."

"Mr. Xiao Wen changed his previous low-key style of doing charity and diplomacy. He suddenly signed several large projects in a vigorous and resolute manner and transferred five or six senior executives to subsidiaries. At the same time, he also went to various branches for inspection. It is said that he cleaned up a lot of termites and sent several managers to prison..."

Tu Wan spoke in a gentle tone, as if she was having a polite and leisurely chat: "Now everyone has a new respect for Mr. Xiao Wen, and they all agree that the reason why Mr. Xiao Wen was so low-key in the past was actually to make way for his own son, so he deliberately concealed his shortcomings and even pushed forward. You..."

She paused, as if considering it before continuing, "Your mother was able to achieve such success and reputation only because Mr. Xiao Wen took the initiative to give in and supported her from behind. The reason why he chose to reappear in everyone's vision now is only because of your failure to recover and the lack of successors in the Wen family..."

At this point, she turned around, looked at Wen Can and asked, "Master Wen, you know that Wen's has always been the leader of Yuzhou. Although our two companies don't cooperate much, due to the size problem, the big moves of Wen's Group will inevitably affect each of us. I wonder what Master Wen thinks of the current development of Wen's Group?"

"Are you really going to quit completely and leave everything to Mr. Xiao Wen?"

"..."

After a long while, Wen Can asked in a deep voice, "Is this Miss Tu's personal curiosity, or is it a question raised by the Tu family... or more than just your family?"

"I can't hide it from you." Tu Wan smiled, "Of course, this is a common problem for several CEOs."

"What difference does it make? Whether I'm here or not, it doesn't affect the Wen family's status as the leader of Yuzhou."

"Of course there is a difference... at least that's the case for me." Tu Wan said, "Unlike those uncles and aunts who look up to Mr. Xiao Wen, I personally don't really believe in Mr. Xiao Wen's ability, so... if the Wen Group is really going to be handed over to Mr. Xiao Wen, I'm afraid I have to make some small preparations."

"..." Wen Can was silent for a long time, then raised the corner of his mouth and said coldly, "Wen Group has nothing to do with me from now on."

Although he had vaguely guessed it, when he suddenly heard the affirmative answer, Tu Wan still opened his eyes slightly in surprise for a while.

She glanced at Wen Can obscurely and said slowly: "I have a somewhat offensive question..."

"Then don't ask."

"..."Tu Wan smiled and swallowed his words.

The wind got stronger, and the branches swayed and rustled.

Tu Wan stood under the eaves and suddenly spoke again: "What are Master Wen's plans for the future? Do you want to become a second-generation rich man who just eats and waits for death? Like what we often see in the circle."

Wen Can's brows finally frowned slightly.

He turned his head and glanced at the woman. There was a hint of displeasure in his black eyes, but the innate pressure was very heavy.

Tu Wan smiled despite the pressure: "Can't I ask this?"

"I thought Miss Tu wouldn't have much curiosity - especially towards people who have nothing to do with her."

"That's how it was originally." Tu Wan said, "But who told you to get engaged to Ye Kong, and you haven't cancelled the engagement yet."

Wen Can was silent for a moment, then turned his dark eyes and looked at her seriously and coldly for the first time.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm really not gay."

Tu Wan made a gesture of surrender, then looked towards the shadows of the mountains in the distance, his tone still unchanged and gentle: "I just...will use my limited curiosity on the most special people."

Amid the whistling wind, the woman's voice was a little distant and indifferent, like water dripping from the sky: "You know, people like us who were born with everything in mind find it hard to find people and things that interest us. We've been treating money as a number since we were little, and taking the lives of the upper class for granted. Countless people have kowtowed in front of us, fawning and smiling, and even begging for mercy on their knees and barking like dogs... Over time, people's thresholds have become higher."

"Because it's hard to find something exciting that can get your adrenaline pumping, there are the most bad people in this circle - there are many who take drugs, have affairs, play all kinds of extreme sports and drown themselves, fall to death, or even explode to death..."

She suddenly stopped talking here, and then laughed: "Master Wen is in a higher position than me, and he knows more about these things than me. I don't think I need to explain more. So I think my curiosity about Ye Kong... or the feeling of many of us towards Ye Kong is similar..."

"Because she can bring unique stimulation - she doesn't need any external force, doesn't need a strong family background, doesn't need the power brought by a background, she only relies on herself..."

"She has the power to intimidate, protect, and... hurt others just by herself."

"It's dangerous, isn't it?" Tu Wan said with a faint smile on her lips, "But we like dangerous things the most."

"I just don't know... Does Master Wen think so too?"

She looked at Wen Can and said slowly: "If it was the old Master Wen, I might think you two are a good match, but can you really withstand her unconscious harm now?"

"Or is it that your engagement is just a facade, and in fact, neither she has any feelings for you nor you have any feelings for her?"
