Chapter 17

Disgraceful

When he saw s.h.i.+ Qians att.i.tude

s.h.i.+ Yaorongs expression darkened. He asked sarcastically, When did you come from the countryside? What are you doing in the capital?

s.h.i.+ Qian sneered when she heard this.

s.h.i.+ Yaorong asked her when she had come from the countryside.

He didnt even know that she had never gone to the countryside.

She coldly glanced at the two and left and did not say a word.

Stop right there! s.h.i.+Yaorong roared and was about to give chase.

s.h.i.+ Muxue immediately grabbed his arm and said apologetically, Dad, Im sorry. I shouldnt have kept it from you.

Xueer, what do you mean? s.h.i.+ Yaorong turned to look at s.h.i.+ Muxue.

Im sorry, dad. I knew that my sister was in the capital. I knew it when school started. Shes in her first year with me at the university. I shouldnt have kept it from you.

What? s.h.i.+ Yaorong asked in surprise. Youre saying that s.h.i.+ Qians at Capital University too?

Yes. s.h.i.+ Muxue nodded, then said, Dad, I didnt mean to hide it from you. I just wanted to persuade her to cut off contact with those people first, then persuade her to go home.

Those people? What do you mean by that? s.h.i.+ Yaorong asked with a frown.

It stunned s.h.i.+ Muxue for a moment. It was like she wasnt supposed to say that.

Its nothing, he immediately said. Dad, dont worry. Since my sister has come to the capital, Ill persuade her to come home. After all, were a family.

Xueer! What do you know? Tell me the truth! s.h.i.+ Yaorong said in a deep voice.

Dad, its nothing. Please dont ask.

Speak!

s.h.i.+ Muxue said in a low voice, Im not too sure either. Its just that last week. A hooligan who came to school and said in front of many students that my sister and him

s.h.i.+ Muxue deliberately paused. It was like she was too embarra.s.sed to say it out loud. Then, she continued. Sister seemed to have used that hooligans money. I advised her not to be involved with those people, to cut off contact with them, and go home quickly, but she didnt listen and said that it had nothing to do with us.

The entire school knows? s.h.i.+ Yaorong frowned.

Yes, many of our cla.s.smates saw it.

s.h.i.+ Yaorongs face was ashen. He gritted his teeth and said, This disgraceful thing! Your mom sends her money every month, and she still did such a shameless thing!

Dad, dont blame sister. She must be muddle-headed. Ill persuade her.

Whats there to persuade! s.h.i.+ Yaorongs face darkened, and a hint of heartlessness flashed in his eyes. Xueer, youre not allowed to tell anyone about your relations.h.i.+p with s.h.i.+ Qian. Theres no such person in the s.h.i.+ family!

The s.h.i.+ family had just moved to the capital, and their foundation needed to be more stable.

Especially since s.h.i.+ Yaorong wanted to work with the Su family recently. He could get close to the even more powerful Huo family than the Su family. That is if everything went well.

The Su family could be considered a sect name.

s.h.i.+ Yaorong was ambitious. He would never allow such a scandal to appear in the s.h.i.+ family at this time and let the Su family know he had such a disgraceful daughter.

Its fine if s.h.i.+ Qian doesnt want it!

s.h.i.+ Muxues eyes flashed with a smug smile.

Now that s.h.i.+ Qian had returned to the s.h.i.+ family, there was probably no chance of her getting married.

s.h.i.+ Qian walked into the cla.s.sroom and found a quiet corner to sit in.

Then, she took out her phone and tapped on the screen.

Not long after.

Sheng Xiao walked into the Computer Science cla.s.sroom and invited the girl beside s.h.i.+ Qian to sit beside her.

He cupped his chin and turned sideways to look at her.

There were shocked sighs all around.

Ill go! What was going on? Young Master Sheng, are you here to see s.h.i.+ Qian?

Shes already sitting next to s.h.i.+ Qian! I think somebody has s.n.a.t.c.hed our Young master Sheng.

s.h.i.+ Qian held her chin with one hand. And her phone in the other. She was in a daze and didnt notice that the person beside her had changed.
