Chapter 9

Awkward

Not bad! Sheng Xiao turned to look at s.h.i.+ Qian.

s.h.i.+ Qian glanced at him from the corner of her eyes and said in an unmodest tone, Its alright,

Lu Sizhe laughed.

This girls personality was not bad.

However, why did this tone sound so familiar?

s.h.i.+ Qian didnt say anything. She stopped in her tracks and looked at the road in the distance.

Beside a black car.

s.h.i.+ Yaorong and Song Yuzhi stood together. They talked and laughed. They looked like a loving couple.

After a while, s.h.i.+ Muxue walked over to the two and excitedly called out for her parents.

s.h.i.+ Muxue knew that s.h.i.+ Qian watched from a distance. She hugged s.h.i.+ Yaorongs arm and said coyly,Father, why did you come to pick me up?

s.h.i.+ Yaorong smiled amiably. Ive been away for so long. Of course, I miss my precious daughter. By the way, Ive also brought you a gift.

Then, the driver took out an exquisite box from the car.

s.h.i.+ Yaorong took it and pa.s.sed it to s.h.i.+ Muxue. Guess what it is? Youve always wanted it.

s.h.i.+ Muxues eyes lit up as she smiled and said, Is it true love? The latest necklace from charm?

Song Yuzhi laughed. See? I told you that your daughter could guess it right away.

It is true love?! s.h.i.+ Muxue looked so touched that she was about to cry. She said gently, Dad, thank you!

s.h.i.+ Yaorongs family of three got into the car after that.

s.h.i.+ Yaorong overlooked s.h.i.+ Qian, who was sparingly near.

s.h.i.+ Qian retracted her dark gaze and continued to walk forward indifferently.

She knew that s.h.i.+ Yaorongs entire family had moved to the capital and had utterly ignored her existence.

Even though she had long since stopped caring about it, her chest still felt a little stuffy when she saw the family of three had such a happy time.

Sheng Xiao looked at s.h.i.+ Qian with a complicated expression and caught up with her again. Where are you going? Do you want me to give you a ride?

s.h.i.+ Qian smiled, but the smile didnt reach her eyes.

Thank you, but its fine.

She quickened her pace after that and left the school gate. She left the two behind.

At the kings garden.

s.h.i.+ Qian was about to enter the villa when she suddenly stopped. She turned around and walked towards the garden.

She picked a rose and sniffed it.

The fragrance of the flowers refreshed her. And it made her mood happy and swept away all her worries.

She had reached the end of the garden unknowingly and there was a bamboo forest in front of her.

She walked into the bamboo forest, and a place with hot air appeared not far away.

It was Shang Sizhans private hot spring.

She walked forward again.

Whos there??! An icy voice suddenly sounded.

s.h.i.+ Qian suddenly realized there was someone in the hot spring!

Zhan Young Master Zhan!

s.h.i.+ Qian quickly covered her face with her hands. Im sorry! Im sorry! I I didnt do it on purpose!

Why is the evil big boss in the hot spring?!

s.h.i.+ Qian turned around and ran. She covered her eyes and couldnt see the way. She hit her head against a wall after she ran a few steps.

Oh! s.h.i.+ Qian felt the pain and immediately rubbed her forehead with her hand while she covered her eyes.

She finally realized that she didnt hit a wall at this moment, but Shang Sizhan!

Wasnt he still in the hot spring just now? How did he catch up so quickly?

Shang Sizhan wore a white bathrobe. His wheat-colored skin still dripped with water.

s.h.i.+ Qians face was slightly red, not daring to look at him.

Shang Sizhans dark phoenix eyes looked at the girl in front of him. So it was her.

Why are you here? A low and magnetic voice sounded.

s.h.i.+ Qian replied awkwardly. I was just looking around and didnt know you were here. I didnt mean to peek at you. Please continue. Ill leave immediately.

With that, s.h.i.+ Qian tried to run away again.

Stop! The mans voice was authoritative.

s.h.i.+ Qian was forced to stop in her tracks and lowered her head. Helplessness shrouded her face. She knew she was dead for sure.

Young Master Zhan, Im sorry!

If an apology works for everything, whats the use of the law?

s.h.i.+ Qian was speechless.

She raised her head and looked at him. Then Then what are you going to do?

A touch of evilness shrouded Shang Sizhans good looks and phoenix eyes as he opened his thin lips slightly.Youve seen me, so you have to take responsibility.

s.h.i.+ Qian was speechless.

Why did these words sound so familiar?
