After Qin Yiyi beat him up, she directly threw him to the side of the road.
She slowly returned home, hiding her achievements and fame.
However, she had just come out of the alley and was thinking whether she should take a taxi back or go to the bus stop not far ahead.
A car slowly stopped beside her.
“Get in the car.”
Qin Yiyi looked at the person who got out of the car and was a little surprised, “Why are you here?”
Under the night sky, it was somewhat difficult to see Shang Jingheng’s face clearly.
Only his eyes were deep and distant, like the stars in the sky. At this moment, he had already gotten out of the car and helped Qin Yiyi open the door of the passenger seat.
“If you have anything to say, let’s talk in the car.”
Qin Yiyi acknowledged and obediently got into the car. Then, she glanced at Shang Jingheng. After thinking for a moment, she fastened her seatbelt.
“You’re obedient now.”
There was not a hint of emotion in Shang Jingheng’s voice.
However, instinctively, Qin Yiyi felt that this good-looking fellow in front of her was angry.
Her eyes turned and turned again and again.
In the end, it was Shang Jingheng who could not hold it in and spoke first, “Aren’t you going to ask me why I’m here?”
“Ah, I asked just now. Didn’t you tell me to wait until I got on the car?”
Qin Yiyi smiled at him. She thought for a moment and looked over.
“Did Ding Yi tell you?”
She originally wanted to come out on her own, but she didn’t expect to bump into Ding Yi when she went out.
Ding Yi was worried that she would come out alone, so he had asked to send her to the school gate…
Thinking about it, only that fellow could contact Shang Jingheng at any time, right?
“Yes, he said that you insisted on going out in the middle of the night. He couldn’t stop you, and you didn’t allow him to follow you. I was worried, so I came over to take a look…”
Shang Jingheng glanced at her and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he braced himself and opened his mouth.
“Um, I’m sorry. I set the GPS on your phone… I didn’t mean anything by it. I was just afraid that a girl like you would be in danger…”
He really didn’t mean anything by it. He was just worried that she would be bullied by the Qin family’s parents who weren’t willing to be good people.
At this moment, Qin Yiyi didn’t say anything for a long time.
Shang Jingheng’s grip on the steering wheel tightened, but he still forced himself to remain calm.
“If you’re angry, I’ll delete it right now. Yes, yes, delete it. Then, I’ll get someone to help you get a new phone…”
“If you’re still worried, you can go to various authorities across the country to test it…”
Qin Yiyi watched as Shang Jingheng forced himself to remain calm at the end of his sentence and couldn’t help but twitch her lips.
“It’s not a big deal. Why are you so nervous? I already know about the location tracking. Also, I’ve also helped you get a location on your phone.”
“The kind that can be shared.”
Shang Jingheng didn’t care about what Qin Yiyi said at the end. All he could think about was the first sentence.
‘What’s the big deal? Why are you so nervous?’
‘I knew it!’
The little girl knew it, but she didn’t show it to him…
In other words, the little girl wasn’t angry!
It was as if the heavy stone in his heart had been forcibly and decisively moved away.
He felt that even the air inside the car had become a lot fresher!
Finally, the car stopped at a private restaurant. “You must be hungry. I’ve ordered porridge here. Good supper. Let’s go have some and send you home.”
“Okay, I just happened to exercise and I’m a little hungry.”
These words made a strange flash in Shang Jingheng’s eyes, who was following behind her.
The so-called exercise of this young lady was… hitting people? !
Knowing that Qin Yiyi was not picky about food, but he liked delicacies that had both color, fragrance, and taste, Shang Jingheng specially instructed the shop to use jade bone porcelain for their dishes.
It looked very good with all kinds of dishes.
It made Qin Yiyi’s appetite soar, and her stomach began to growl.
“Have some porridge first. This is the seafood that was flown in. Have a taste. If you like it, I’ll get someone to send some over for you later.”
Qin Yiyi lowered her head and drank a mouthful of tea. Her eyes were filled with joy.
“It’s delicious.”
She drank a few mouthfuls to warm her stomach. Only then did she remember what Shang Jingheng had just said. She shook her head,
“Please don’t send it to me. I don’t know how to cook.”
She only knew how to eat. She knew how to burn the kitchen, but she didn’t know how to cook…
Shang Jingheng looked at her and chuckled. “I do.”
“Do you really know how to cook?”
“I really know how to cook.” The Shang family had been training their heirs since they were young, and cooking was one of their subjects!
Qin Yiyi gave him a meaningful look. However, when she thought of the noodles this man cooked last time, she felt that he should know how to cook.
She just didn’t know if it was delicious?
“You really cook it well? Don’t spoil the food.”
Qin yiyi advised him earnestly, “If you don’t know how to cook, then you don’t know how to cook. I won’t blame you or laugh at you. I’m still a girl, yet I don’t know how to cook either, see?”
“Just wait and eat.” He really knew how to cook!
Since he had said that, Qin Yiyi let him be. She drank a bowl of porridge. She rubbed her stomach and drank another bowl.
She wanted to put in a third bowl.
However, she was stopped by a slender jade-like hand holding her wrist.
“You can’t eat more tonight. If you want to eat, I’ll come with you tomorrow.”
Qin Yiyi sighed. “How old are you?”
“Twenty-six. Why?”
Shang Jingheng had a surprised expression. How old was he?
The girl rested her chin on one hand. Her voice was leisurely, as if it came from the sky.
“I thought you were sixty-two.”
Shang Jingheng, “…”
After dinner, the car drove straight back to Qin Yiyi’s house.
At the door.
Shang Jingheng watched as Qin Yiyi opened the door and turned on the lights. He stood at the door without moving.
“Rest early. I’m leaving first.”
Qin Yiyi leaned against the door and stood casually. When she heard this, she raised her eyebrows.
“Leaving just like that? Are you really not going to ask me what I was doing at night and why I hit that person?”
“Everything you did was definitely right. But…”
He sized up Qin Yiyi a few times before reaching out and pulling a strand of hair from her forehead to her ear.
“Next time, if you want to hit someone, just tell Ding Yi. Don’t do it yourself.”
“You’re a girl. You can’t just hit people at random.”
Qin Yi rolled her eyes secretly. She had killed quite a number of people in the alternate dimension before.
Forget it, forget it. I won’t tease this fool anymore.
She nodded her head and accepted this matter. However, what she was thinking in her heart was not something Shang Jingheng could know.
She waved at Shang Jingheng and was about to close the door when she suddenly remembered something.
“Do you have something to do the day after tomorrow? I want to meet Grandpa Gu. Do you want to come?”
Shang Jingheng nodded without thinking. “What time? I’ll pick you up.”
“We agreed to meet at ten in the morning. If you’re not free, I’ll…”
“I’ll pick you up at nine in the morning the day after tomorrow.”
He watched as the door closed in front of him.
Shang Jingheng pursed his lips. He suddenly felt a little unhappy and stood there for a few more seconds.
He turned around and entered the elevator not far away.
Downstairs, Ding Yi was waiting for him in the car. When he saw him walk over, he opened the car door neatly.
“Please, sir.”
Shang Jingheng glanced at him. “Drive.”
The car was halfway through.
Shang Jingheng, who was used to closing his eyes and taking a nap after getting into the car, suddenly opened his eyes.
“Ding Yi, looking at you now, are you very old?”
“Old?”
Ding Yi, who was holding the steering wheel, almost knocked the car against the barriers!
Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough to turn the steering wheel back in time.
When the car was back on the road, he opened his mouth with a look of surprise. “Sir, you look like you’re only in your early thirties at most. You’re really not old.” Actually, his own sir did not like to smile. His boss had a straight face. In addition, he looked a little weak due to his health and did not look good. Otherwise, he would definitely be a few years younger! As for looking like he was in his thirties, Ding Yi really felt that he was not old!
Moreover, no matter how old his master was, he was still the brightest old man on the street.
But who knew that Shang Jingheng was not satisfied.
He glanced at Ding Yi coldly and slowly leaned against the back of the seat.
Ding Yi: I suddenly felt chilly just now. Was it a little cold?
Qin Yiyi won first place in the competition and ran to Teacher Zhou’s office a few days later.
“Teacher Zhou, I need to take a leave of absence for something tomorrow.”
Teacher Zhou didn’t ask much. He only asked her a few questions before he granted the leave. “Take care of yourself outside. If you have any problems that you can’t solve, you can call me.” Teacher Zhou definitely said this from the bottom of his heart, although.. he did not know if he could really help Qin Yiyi.
However, it was just one sentence.
It was something that many teachers could not say or think of.
Qin Yiyi’s heart was warm, but her tone was as unhurried as ever.
“Don’t worry, Teacher Zhou. I won’t be polite to you. I’m just afraid that you’ll find me annoying when the time comes.”
Teacher Zhou rolled his eyes. “If you know, then don’t cause trouble. If you have nothing to do, do your homework at home. Try to get into a good school when the time comes.”
“Got it.”
Qin Yiyi suddenly gave a military salute, then turned around and left.
Teacher Zhou, who was behind her, was speechless,
This child!
9:50 am.
Qin Yiyi and Shang Jingheng’s car stopped in front of the Gu family’s old residence.
It had an ancient flavor.
It was carved with Jade.
They hadn’t even entered the Gu family’s courtyard when they felt a pure and simple aura.
However, this aura didn’t seem right?
The old butler of the Gu family personally came to welcome them. When he saw Shang Jingheng, he didn’t feel surprised. He was polite and respectful, but there was warmth in it.
“Mr. Shang, Miss Qin, please come in. The old master has been waiting for you all morning.”
“Thank you, Uncle Butler.”
When Qin Yiyi heard Shang Jingheng’s address, her eyes narrowed.
This address was not something an ordinary person could accept, and Shang Jingheng was not someone who would be so courteous to just anyone.
There was only one possibility:
The Shang and Gu families had a very good relationship!
As she muttered in her heart, Shang Jingheng had already turned his head to look at her.
“When I was young, I lived in the Gu residence for a period of time. It was this Uncle Butler who took care of me…”
Qin Yiyi became a little curious when she heard this.
Shang Jingheng had actually lived in the Gu residence before?
Just as she was thinking about this, a car had already arrived. The butler personally drove the car and drove the two of them for about ten minutes.
The car finally stopped in front of a small courtyard.
“Mr. Shang, Miss Qin, the old man is waiting for the two of you inside. Please go ahead.”
After pushing the door open and seeing the environment inside clearly, she raised her head to look at the surrounding sky. It was not until she saw the old man sitting under the grape trellis in the courtyard that Qin Yiyi’s eyelids instantly twitched. Slowly, a hint of surprise gathered in her eyes.
it was actually the Feng Shui Bureau?
