Chapter 464: Pulling Strings (3)

“Qi Xia, perfect timing. We have a new student with us. Please show her to the first-year’s dormitory.” As soon as the Magus Division’s head saw his star student, a smile blossomed on his face.

Qi Xia was there to deliver something, so he did not expect to see that many people in the room. His eyes glimmered when he saw the pet.i.te figure amongst the crowd.

“Sure.” Qi Xia accepted the task with another smile.

Shen Jiayi could not hold herself back. She hurried toward Qi Xia. She was in such a rush that it was a miracle that she remembered how to behave as a fair maiden. She took small steps and twisted her waist as she sauntered toward Qi Xia. It was as if an engine powered her movements.

“Senior Qi, it is nice to meet you. I am Shen Jiayi. From today onward, I will be a student in the Magus Division. I’d appreciate your kind help in the future.” Shen Jiayi spoke in her sweetest voice as she wanted to make a good impression.

Qi Xia was startled for a brief moment before he glanced at Shen Jiayi, who looked as if she had dancing hearts in her eyes. Then he s.h.i.+fted his attention to Shen Yanxiao, who hid behind a young mind. No one could tell what was on Qi Xia’s mind.

“Nice to meet you.”

“Senior Qi, I have just reached the sixth rank. I still don’t know much about being a Magus. May I ask for your help if I were to encounter any problems in the future?” Shen Jiayi was utterly possessed by the romantic thoughts that she had for her senior. She continued to blink and make eyes at Qi Xia.

Qi Xia smiled at her, but he offered no reply.

“Qi Xia—that name sounds familiar. Is he from the Qilin Family?” Shen Yue had a more acute perspective. It only took him a moment before he guessed Qi Xia’s ident.i.ty.

He was the third young master of the Qiling family, and the public also knew him as the Qilin’s next Family Head. Shen Yue hoped that his daughter would have a relations.h.i.+p with Qi Xia. Shen Feng had already pa.s.sed the Vermilion Bird Family to Shen Yanxiao, and Shen Jiayi had always been obsessed with Shen Siyu, so she was unlikely to get ahead. However, if they were to ally with the Qilin family, then his daughter would have a chance to be the wife of the Qilin Family’s head.

Shen Yue had always engaged in fanciful dreams, and he had never stopped his daughter’s obsession with boys. He dreamt about the pretty picture when his daughter would marry Qi Xia in the future.

Shen Yanxiao was stunned into speechlessness when she noticed how Shen Jiayi behaved like a child with a crush. Shen Yanxiao remembered how Shen Jiayi had clung onto Shen Siyu, and it had been ‘Brother Siyu this’ and ‘Brother Siyu that’ just moments ago. How could she transfer that obsession onto Qi Xia in the blink of an eye?

Did she not s.h.i.+ft her love onto another person a little too quickly?

Shen Yanxia, who had zero experience in love, could not understand why those teenagers seemed to be obsessed with Shen Siyu and Qi Xia’s supposedly handsome features.

It looked like Qi Xia was entrusted with an important mission. He wore the usual smile that he reserved for such a situation, and then led the group toward Shen Jiayi’s dormitory.

Shen Jiayi no longer bothered Shen Siyu while they made their way there. Instead, she chatted on and on with Qi Xia.

Qi Xia’s smile stayed as it was. He did not appear to be annoyed or impatient with her, so it boosted Shen Jiayi’s confidence significantly.

However, Shen Jiayi did not know that Qi Xia was born with the smile of the angel Samoyed. He could always maintain that grin on his face, even if he had to face a pile of feces.

Shen Yanxiao followed them and observed, with amus.e.m.e.nt, how Shen Jiayi tried to build a relations.h.i.+p with Qi Xia. However, Shen Yanxiao did not give him any warning. She was eager to find out if that smiling b.a.s.t.a.r.d could deal with a boy-crazed silly girl.

Qi Xia completed his task when they reached the dormitory. Shen Jiayi had wanted to talk to him more, but he found an excuse for his departure. He left without any hesitation, but with a smile on his face.
