Murong Jing retracted her gaze and continued eating as if nothing had happened.
She was already used to the nickname of the female devil given to her by the outside world, but she did not expect to hear it from a student today.
After lunch.
Shi Qian sent Murong Jing to the school gate.
Murong Jing stopped in her tracks and looked at Shi Qian with a reluctant expression. âBaby, Iâm going back to North America. Remember to miss me.â âYouâre going back?â Shi Qian was stunned.
âYes.â
âAlright.â
Murong Jing nodded. âIâm done here. I have to go back to the headquarters.â âWhy didnât you say so earlier? I would have treated you to a big meal to fulfill your wish!â
Murong Jing giggled. âIâve eaten too many big meals these few days. Itâs good to improve my diet before I leave.â
âBe careful on the road. I will find time to visit you.â Shi Qian smiled.
âReally? Donât lie to me!â
âItâs true. However, I couldnât be sure when it would be.â
She would have to wait until Shang Sizhan went to North America for a business trip. She could forget about taking a step out of the capital by herself. âIsnât it the same as not saying anything?â
Shi Qian smiled.
After Murong Jing left.
Shi Qian walked back to school.
Many people around her quietly looked at her and whispered to each other.
These people had gossiped about Shi Qian behind her back for a long time. So they couldnât bother her.
âCould the man who kept Shi Qian be the CEO of Chuangyue Company, Xu Muchen? Didnât they say that Xu Muchen and his wife love each other very much?â
âThe upper-class people and celebrities in the entertainment industry are all the same. They all love each other before a scandal is exposed.â
âThat country bumpkin Shi Qian has some tricks up her sleeves. She managed to hook up with a big shot like Xu Muchen.â
âEven Young Master Sheng has fallen for her, let alone Xu Muchen!â
âThis woman is a scourge!â
The girls talked enthusiastically when they suddenly felt the air around them colder.
Then, they noticed Sheng Xuâs murderous gaze.
The girls immediately shut up and ran away.
Lu Sizhe stood beside Sheng Xu.
âPeople relentlessly spread scandal about Shi Qian. Do you think itâs true that she knows Xu Muchen?â
Sheng Xu retracted his gaze. âI donât care if she truly knows Xu Muchen, but the rumors are lies.â
Lu Sizhe smiled.
âNonsense!
âWith his arrogance, how could this married man be Shi Qianâs lover? Were all the other men dead?
âEven if she doesnât choose me, it canât be that Xu Muchen. Besides, Jiang Ci liked her too. They had known each other since high school. Wouldnât Shi Qian choose the more powerful Jiang Ci if she were that kind of woman?â
Lu Sizhe nodded.
The two walked, and Sheng Xu suddenly changed direction.
âWhere are you going?â Lu Sizhe asked.
âI will look for Shi Qian.â
âDidnât you publicly say you wonât pursue her anymore?â
âI have something else to discuss with her.â After that, Sheng Xu left and didnât look back.
Shi Qian was in the classroom. Sheng Xu had not been visible since morning, suddenly appeared.
He sat beside her again.
âSheng Xu, what are you doing?â
Sheng Xu turned to face her and gravely said, âThink about what I told you this morning.â
âWhat words?â
Sheng Xu was speechlessâ¦
âShi Qian, stop pretending. I talked to you this morning, and youâve already forgotten about it!â
Shi Qian recalled the scene in the morning and then remembered.
Sheng Xu said he would protect and send her to and from class.
Consider my head!
In that case, Master Zhan would explode!
