Chapter 537 Probationary Period (Completed)
Chapter 537 Probationary Period (Completed)
A woman who does great things has a will as strong as steel. How could she be bound by such petty love affairs?
Jiang Huashan breathed softly, and her wrist, which seemed to be broken at any bend, pressed against Shen Guiling's shoulder irresistibly.
Shen Guiling saw her intention and placed his hands on both sides of Jiang Huashan's head to resist the push from his shoulders.
There is no fish that won't bite the hook in this world, only bait that is not attractive enough.
Shen Guiling looked into her eyes and took the initiative to speak before she could refuse, "I will help you kill Shen Che?"
Kill whom? Jiang Huashan was stunned, a little bit unbelievable. Is this guy addicted to killing?
Shen Guiling's eyes were gentle as she lowered her head to tidy up the loose hair on her cheek. She spoke casually, "You now know that Shen Che is the man behind Shen Zhi. I guess you will definitely take action next. When you instigated Zhou Yanheng to kill Shen Zhi, it was simply because you didn't want Grandpa to know that this matter had anything to do with you. Shen Zhi was like this, let alone Shen Che."
"What does this have to do with you?"
Jiang Huashan frowned and wanted to slap his hand, but Shen Guiling grabbed it and pushed it back.
"Of course it's related. If you don't want Grandpa to know that you're involved, you must cooperate with others. There are only a handful of people in Jinggang who have the ability to kill Shen Che and are willing to work for you. Shen Lanxi does have this ability, but he was raised under the Shen family's training since he was a child. What Shen Che is doing now is not beyond his tolerance, so he will definitely spare Shen Che's life."
"Zhou Yanheng is also a good candidate, but he is extremely ambitious. Working with him is like trying to get the skin of a tiger. You have to be on guard against being bitten by him at all times."
Jiang Huashan finally understood what was going on. After all this time, this guy was still promoting himself.
She raised her eyebrows and deliberately provoked, "What about Shen Qingyu?"
Shen Guiling curled his lips and said, "There are a lot of fish, and he can't do it either. The reason you looked for Zhou Yanheng in the first place was because you didn't want the Shen family to be involved, right?"
"Yeah." Jiang Huashan nodded confidently, "So you can't do that either, because you are also a member of the Shen family."
She didn't want to lay the groundwork for the future split of the Three Idiots by dealing with Shen Che's affairs. That would be more trouble than it would take.
Shen Guiling moved his fingers slowly up along her fair wrist. When their palms touched, he corrected her in a low voice, "No, I can do it. Only I can do it."
“…” Jiang Huashan looked at him expressionlessly.
Shen Guiling was amused by her, and his brows relaxed immediately. "What are you thinking? I'm serious. I can do it."
Who is thinking wrongly?
Jiang Huashan squinted her eyes, "What's okay? You're not a member of the Shen family?"
In fact, she already had the answer to this question in her heart. She asked this deliberately to see what Shen Guiling's attitude was towards the Shen family. Did he really regard the Shen family as his home, or was it just a stepping stone for him to ascend to the sky?
"Of course I'm a member of the Shen family." Shen Guiling's face showed no flaws, and the dark fire burning in his eyes looked a little sinister. "So, how about letting Shen Qian help us kill him?"
If Jiang Huashan had been more attentive, she would have easily noticed how sinister the word "we" was, but she had no time to care about such trivial matters at the moment. Her eyes lit up, "What a good idea!"
It's obvious that Shen Qian is a bad guy. There's no doubt that he must have contributed to Grandpa's death. However, he is currently in a high position. If something happens to him, the Shen family's position in the political arena will also be threatened. Therefore, to deal with Shen Qian, we must wait until the third generation of the Shen family has established a firm foothold.
but……
If he could make the dead second generation of the Shen family kill each other, not only could he clear himself of the issue, but he could also break the possibility of their future alliance to murder Grandpa!
What a great idea! Why hadn't she thought of it before?
Jiang Huashan revealed an expression even more sinister than Shen Guiling's. "How do we kill him?"
Shen Guiling smiled, and his fingertips, like a viper, slithered into Jiang Huashan's fingers, interlocking theirs. "Choose me."
I knew this guy had bad intentions.
Seeing Jiang Huashan's hesitation, Shen Guiling retreated to advance and started a new round of sales pitch, "Let's try it once, just once. If you don't like it, I will never mention it again."
Jiang Huashan's eyes darkened, and the ripples in them returned to calm in an instant.
After a long moment, the other hand on the shoulder, with fingers slightly bent, changed from pushing to grabbing, and dragged Shen Guiling's shirt in front of him, "You can try it."
The sudden success made Shen Guiling a little overwhelmed. A whole galaxy suddenly lit up in his deep eyes, and he put his hand on her forehead and wanted to kiss her.
Jiang Huashan tilted her head and looked at him with a squinting gaze, "I haven't finished yet, it's just the probation period."
Shen Guiling didn't care about these details at all, "Okay."
He agreed and wanted to kiss her.
All he could think about now was kissing her.
Jiang Huashan put her hand on his chin and said, "There are conditions for the probation period."
Shen Guiling looked at her and said, "Okay."
She hasn't said anything yet, what's good about it?
"During the probation period, no intimate behavior is allowed. Only business matters can be discussed."
The key right now is to find a way to get rid of Shen Che. Being affectionate at this time will only affect the speed at which she draws the sword.
Shen Guiling restrained his smile, stared at her for a while, then slowly stood up and took a step back.
"it is good."
So straightforward? No hesitation at all. He's truly someone who can accomplish great things.
Jiang Huashan slowly sat up, holding onto the tabletop. He tapped the tabletop with his clenched palms, looking businesslike. "Now, tell me how you plan to trap Shen Qian? I'll give you some advice. If it doesn't work, I can even give you some pointers."
Do you really think he's just a trainee fish in a pond? The abacus beads are flying all over his face.
Shen Guiling put on a gentle and polite appearance, "Shen Qian is narrow-minded and extremely suspicious. If he knew that Yao Ge had been doing drug business with Shen Che behind her back, he would never let it go."
"Even so, he might not kill Shen Che. If I were Shen Qian, these handles would be enough to make Shen Che have no chance of recovery. I would definitely stand by and watch. There is really no need to risk being disliked by grandfather by murdering his brothers."
Over the years, the reason why the second and third branches have been at odds with each other is that the biggest point of conflict is nothing more than the division of power in the Shen family. If Shen Che loses his voice in the Shen family, he will no longer be a threat to Shen Qian. The second branch's ruthless pursuit of him will only arouse the old man's vigilance and be counterproductive. Shen Qian has been navigating power politics for many years and will not fail to see through this.
Shen Guiling smiled and said, "In theory, that's true, but... we still have one thing we can use."
Jiang Huashan narrowed her eyes. "You're deliberately keeping me in suspense. Ten points will be deducted! Warning, your probation period will end with zero points. You're unqualified."
"..." Shen Guiling was caught off guard, his expression dazed, "What's the full score?"
"Eleven points." Jiang Huashan raised a finger, "You have one point left now."
It’s time to let Jiujiuyu taste the feeling of being dissatisfied with the points he earned.
"..." No matter how good-tempered Shen Guiling was, he was still amused by her unreasonable deduction system. Did this mean that as soon as he said a word, 90% of his points were deducted by this ancestor?
"What? You seem dissatisfied. If you don't accept it, you will be deducted points."
Shen Guiling pinched his brows and said, "I accept."
Jiang Huashan, "Then continue."
Having learned from previous experience, Shen Guiling got straight to the point, "We can use Shen Nian."

Summer Garden.
There were bruises of varying sizes on Bai Mi's face. His waist was like a fully drawn bow, ready to be released. With a kick of his long legs, he climbed directly onto the three-meter-high courtyard wall.
"The Shen family is just a small family, and you still want to trap me?"
The autumn sun is gentle, and the bleak autumn wind blows across his proud brows.
next second.
"What the hell is this?"
Why is there a yard behind the wall? Not only that! But there's another wall behind the yard? Walls within yards, yards within walls, endlessly, like Russian nesting dolls. For someone with poor navigation skills, this is a hellish escape.
There was a brief freeze on Bai Mi's handsome face. Just when he was still hesitating whether to continue to break through, a black shadow suddenly rushed onto the courtyard wall. When he came to his senses, he felt a piercing pain in his calf and fell backwards uncontrollably.
Fortunately, he was in good physical condition and had quick reactions. When he fell, he supported himself on the ground with his backhand and rolled several times before he was able to relieve the force of the collision. However, his palm was not so lucky. Sparks flew from his palm and his skin was torn.
Bai Mi stared at the wound for a long time, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Shen Lanxi walking in from the blocked courtyard gate.
Another tough guy.
He pretended to be nonchalant and patted the dust off his knees. "Oh~ I thought it was someone else? It turns out to be Commander Shen. Why are you here? Where's Shen Guiling?"
Shen Lanxi walked into the octagonal pavilion without looking around. After taking a seat, she looked Bai Mi around slowly before speaking, "You seem very interested in Shen Guiling?"
Bai Mi had only said it casually, but he hadn't expected Shen Lanxi to be so perceptive. A hint of sarcasm appeared on her face. "Of course I'm interested. He's brought shame upon our Bai family. Not only me, but everyone in the Bai family is very interested in him now. What? Are you jealous?"
Shen Lanxi raised her hand.
Gao Zhi took off the nunchaku from his waist and swept it across Bai Mi's lower abdomen. Bai Mi's face changed drastically and his handsome features wrinkled.
Gao Zhi was aloof throughout the whole process. He took advantage of Bai Mi curling up and hunching his back to strangle his neck with his nunchaku and dragged him to the pavilion.
Bai Mi hissed in pain, showing no fear even when he was forced to kneel. "Shen Lanxi, kill me if you dare. What's the point of tickling me?"
Shen Lanxi's expression was indifferent. "Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Shen Garden?"
"Huh? Purpose?" Bai Mi asked provocatively with half-open eyes, "Didn't your old man already ask about it yesterday? Was I not clear enough, or is the old man too old to remember..."
"boom--"
Before he could finish his arrogant words, Gao Zhi punched Bai Mi in the side of the face.
Speaking rudely to Shen Zhuang in Shen Garden is simply seeking death.
Bai Mi groaned, and looked at Shen Lanxi with a dark and terrifying look in his eyes. "What do you want to ask?"
Shen Lanxi, "I don't want to ask anything." After saying that, she lowered her eyes and looked at her phone.
Gao Zhi understood what he meant and grabbed Bai Mi's neck and started beating him.
Previously, when Jiang Huashan was in the Bai Palace, the queen deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb and made her suffer in the palace. Now it is time for the Bai family to taste the feeling of being trampled on.
Shen Zhuang was not in a position to lower his status and meet a junior, but other people in the Shen family could. He specially asked Shen Lanxi to come and interrogate people, intending to give him a taste of his own medicine.
It just so happened that Shen Lanxi was in a bad mood, so she carried it out thoroughly.
Bai Mi originally planned to fight with Gao Zhi, but after being punched a few times, he became completely obedient and just held his head to protect his vital parts.
The light and shadow on the ground shift from east to west...
"Click——"
With a crisp sound, a piece of the nunchaku broke, and Gao Zhi slowly withdrew his hand with a cold face.
Bai Mi's scalp was numb with pain. He gasped a few times and yelled at Shen Lanxi, "Every wrong has its perpetrator. Are you so capable that you can go to Country S and kill that bitch Bai Diya?!"
Shen Lanxi didn't even raise her eyelids and continued to stare at her phone.
Bai Mi was even more furious, his eyes blazing with light. "You bastard! You beat him up like this and you still dare to ignore him?!"
After repeatedly confirming that there was no information, Shen Lanxi stood up and raised her eyes without any warning. Her anger automatically shifted to what was in front of her. "You don't have to tell me, as long as you can endure it."
Bai Mi had dealt with Shen Lanxi before and knew that he was not easy to fool, so he sneered and did not respond.
Shen Lanxi said, "It seems that we can only ask the Queen of the Bai family to come in person."
Bai Mi's face was gloomy. His grandmother was old and rarely appeared even at state banquets in recent years. Shen Lanxi dared to think about it.
Their eyes met briefly. Shen Lanxi looked indifferent, and Bai Mi was afraid that he would see something, so he pretended to be defiant.
After a moment, Shen Lanxi withdrew her gaze, turned around and left the pavilion without saying a word.
Bai Mi turned sideways, motionlessly watching his back as he walked away, and his fingers supporting the ground unconsciously tapped the ground.

"Master."
After leaving Xia Garden, Gao Zhi immediately threw away the broken stick in his hand and followed Shen Lanxi happily, "Did Miss Jiang reply?"
Shen Lanxi stopped and looked at him expressionlessly.
"..." Gao Zhi's mouth twitched, and he coaxed her, "Young Master, don't be anxious. Miss Jiang is probably taking a nap at this time. When she wakes up and sees your sincerity, she will definitely be angry..."
"..." Shen Lanxi didn't want to be comforted, so she interrupted coldly, "Send someone to keep an eye on Xia Yuan."
Gao Zhi immediately became serious, "Master, don't worry. I've made all the arrangements. Not even a fly can get in."
Shen Lanxi, "What I mean is, I want you to let the fly in."
Gao Zhi was stunned for a moment, then reacted with a subtle expression, "Master, do you want to follow the clues to find out?"
Shen Lanxi nodded. "Bai Mi's words are evasive and his behavior is suspicious. He's obviously hiding a secret. But there's one thing I can't figure out. The Bai family has always acted recklessly. Who is Bai Mi protecting?"
Gao Zhi frowned, a little bit unbelieving, "Protection?"
Shen Lanxi said, "The Bai family's first navy flag has just been seized by the Shen family. This is such a great humiliation. If you were Bai Mi, what would you do if you knew there was a traitor causing trouble in Shen Garden?"
"Of course I'm happy to see it happen and I'm waiting to watch the fun." Gao Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned to look at Shen Lanxi, "Why would he tip off Shen Guiling? Young Master, are you saying that the person Bai Mi is protecting is Shen Guiling? That's impossible, right? After all, the culprit who snatched their royal flag is Shen Guiling."
"If it's not Shen Guiling, then there's another explanation. Bai Mi has reached a cooperative relationship with a member of the Shen family in Shen Garden, and Qiu Yuan's betrayal is also part of the cooperation." Shen Lanxi raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Qiu Yuan. "As for which one it is, we'll know after we investigate."
