At the moment Shen Qiang spoke, Bianyi's eyes sparkled with excitement. He stood up joyfully and said, "My dear boss, I didn't hear wrong, did I? You said why such beautiful treasures should be handed over to Qian Shanxue, which means you never intended to give them to Qian Shanxue."

Shen Qiang admired the exquisite floral porcelain bottle that Bianyi had carefully polished earlier, and he sincerely praised, "It's really beautiful, breathtakingly perfect. So of course I won't hand them over to Qian Shanxue, because with her character, she would definitely turn in such stolen goods."

"Exactly!" Bianyi exclaimed with bright eyes, excitedly saying, "Qian Shanxue is a foolish woman who only knows how to follow the rules. She would turn in the treasures, which would benefit those bastards who can't even keep track of their own treasures."

"It's precisely their foolishness and carelessness that have led to so many treasures falling into the hands of scum like Liu Chengye. Even if they retrieved them through the Dragon Group, they wouldn't be able to protect these treasures."

Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows with a smile, "There's no need for inexplicable excuses—greed or fondness, one way or another, these exotic treasures are in my hands, so I will definitely ensure their safety."

Bianyi laughed.

At this point, Shen Qiang's phone rang again.

Seeing Qian Shanxue's name on the caller ID, Shen Qiang gestured for Bianyi to stay silent.

"Hello, Colonel, what are your instructions?"

Hearing Shen Qiang's voice, Qian Shanxue on the other end of the phone said, "It's still about the stolen goods lost by Liu Chengye. We just received news that Heshenghe's woman, known as the beautiful heroic thief, took five days off last night and left the Provincial City. We suspect she is related to those stolen goods."

Shen Qiang looked helplessly at Bianyi, who was not embarrassed at all but instead seemed a little smug, and said, "Oh, so what do you want to do?"

"According to the procedure and convention, we have notified the Dragon Group members in Spring City to help monitor Jiang Hanyang. Meanwhile, we want to search Jiang Hanyang's residence and office, but according to regulations, we must have a search warrant, which obviously takes time."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang frowned and glanced at Bianyi, who was sitting on the desk with a mischievous smile, and said, "Okay, I understand. Today is the weekend, and there aren't many people at the company, so you can just start from the company. I will have my assistant send you the key to Jiang Hanyang's office, and then you can conduct the investigation yourselves. If Jiang Hanyang is unhappy about it, just say I'm investigating her."

"Alright, we will head to Heshenghe Building now, see you in five minutes."

As soon as Qian Shanxue hung up the phone.

Sitting on the desk, Bianyi's lips curled into a strange smile, and then he looked at Shen Qiang and raised an eyebrow, saying, "I want to split these jewels with you."

Shen Qiang was slightly taken aback and then laughed, "That's not the right answer, you should know very well that I have no intention of sharing them with you."

"Then your beautiful heroic thief will have to take the fall." Bianyi laughed cheerfully, "Because you can't bear to hand over these treasures to Qian Shanxue, it means you won't tell the truth, so Jiang Hanyang will definitely become the scapegoat."

With an arrogant look, Bianyi raised his eyebrows and said, "And very unfortunately, Qian Shanxue will arrive in five minutes, so you no longer have time to save Jiang Hanyang. So now you're left with an either-or choice: either split half of the treasures with me and have everything be fine, or try to keep all the treasures for yourself, let Jiang Hanyang take the fall, the Dragon Group will hunt her down, capture her, and maybe even interrogate her."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed, then nonchalantly raised his eyebrows and said, "A leopard never changes its spots. I won't give you a single one of these treasures."

With that, Shen Qiang transferred all the treasures from Bianyi's storage ring into his own, leaving only the documents and cash, and threw the ring back to Bianyi, saying.

"Not only that, since you like to play these little tricks with me, I'll give you a choice."

With a raised eyebrow, Shen Qiang leaned back in his chair and smiled, "One, obediently erase all traces of framing Jiang Hanyang. Two, be kicked out of Heshenghe."

"You think I care about Heshenghe?" Bianyi said, "I'm just a worker; I don't care at all about leaving here. But considering our partnership, I'm willing to lower my demands, for example, you give me a third of these treasures, and I'll ensure your beautiful heroic thief is safe and sound."

Shen Qiang chuckled, calmly saying, "I suggest you seriously think about what Heshenghe brings to you. Did anyone care about you before? But now, you're the president of Heshenghe, and wherever you go, there's a group of people respectfully calling you President Shen."

"A beautiful office, capable subordinates, handling assets worth billions, drinking top-quality tea, you can look down on those cultivators who used to intimidate you, and occasionally flirt with your beautiful secretary."

With his smile gone, Shen Qiang said calmly, "If you're kicked out of Heshenghe, then you lose all of that. No picturesque office, no powerful entourage, no secretary who tolerates your ambiguous harassment with a smile, and certainly no one calling you President Shen with respect."

"So now I'm giving you five seconds to think it over. If you defy my will, I'll kick you out, and then you'll be alone again, without friends, without partners, only endless loneliness, and cold treasures."

Looking at the shocked and somewhat nervous Bianyi, Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow and said, "Make your choice, time's up."

Sitting on the desk, Bianyi cautiously looked at Shen Qiang and said, "Are you serious?"

"I always keep my word." Shen Qiang said solemnly.

Bianyi looked at Shen Qiang for a full five seconds, then suddenly jumped off the desk and shouted furiously, "Shen Qiang! I've never seen someone as shameless as you! These treasures, I got them after planning everything. Now I just want a third, but you not only refuse, you won't give me a single treasure, and then you threaten me?"

"Is this even human?" Bianyi shouted, "Is there no rule of law anymore?"

Watching the furious and raging Bianyi, Shen Qiang's eyes curved into a smile, "Shut up, whether it's human or not isn't up to you to decide. But I want to remind you that the things you used to frame Jiang Hanyang probably aren't too shabby, because if they're worthless, they wouldn't be convincing."

Glancing at his watch, Shen Qiang laughed, "At this time, Qian Shanxue should already have arrived downstairs, so you probably have only a few dozen seconds left to take those things, because they're actually your real gain from this scheme."

Bianyi was startled, then excitedly exclaimed, "You mean to say, I can take the treasures I used to frame?"

"Yes, they're yours." Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow and smiled, "But if they fall into Qian Shanxue's hands, don't expect me to help you get them back."

In an instant, a light flashed in Bianyi's eyes and he burst into explosive laughter, rushing out of the office like the wind, leaving only a jubilant shout behind.

"Long live the boss! You're simply the best!"
