Chapter 22
Secretly Drink
“Silly girl, what are you thinking? The Sheng family! It was one of the top noble families in the imperial capital, and the threshold was as high as the clouds.
“Not to mention Shi Qian has nothing now. She wouldn’t be able to match up to the rich even if she were the young lady of the Shi family.”
Shi Muxue looked at Song Yuzhi and felt that what she said made sense.
Her initially restless heart had calmed down at this time.
“But I still hate seeing Shi Qian’s face!”
Song Yuzhi held her hand and spoke again. “Shi Qian will never be successful. You are the only young lady of the Shi family.”
“Your father has discussed a collaboration with the Su family recently. If we get in touch with the Su family in the future, then we might be able to get close to the Huo family, who is behind the Su family.
“The big four families are out of our league. But the Huo family, which is second only to the big four families, is something we can still look forward to. I heard that the Young Master of the Huo family is about the same age as you. Xue’er, you must work hard to have a chance to rise above the rest.”
Shi Muxue looked at Song Yuzhi. Her lips moved, but she did not speak.
She thought differently from Song Yuzhi. She was arrogant and had her eyes on the four great families.
It was Sheng Xiao, the Crown Prince of the Sheng family.
At night.
When Shi Qian returned to her room, she turned on her computer to search for information and found the things on the school forum.
The onlookers still chatted.
They made all sorts of guesses about her fate.
Shi Qian looked at the posts on the forum and casually deleted all the content. She closed it after that.
Everyone’s page instantly changed to 404!
Then, she was dumbfounded …
“What is the situation?”
Shi Qian closed her computer and went to the bathroom after.
She lay on the bed but could not fall asleep after the shower.
She sat up in frustration and got out of bed after a while.
She walked to the closet, put on a thin shirt, walked out of the room, then went downstairs.
Shi Qian walked to the wine cellar and gently pushed open the large wooden door.
She thought to herself. ‘It’s already past 11 O ‘clock. Young Master Zhan should be asleep by now. He shouldn’t be in the wine cellar, right?’
She walked in while she thought of it.
In the study room.
Shang Sizhan pondered on some documents.
Butler Yan Yi knocked on the door and walked in. He hesitated for a moment and nodded. “My Lord, Miss Qian Qian has just gone to the wine cellar. She’s even tiptoed around. It looks like she wants to secretly drink some wine.
When Shang Sizhen heard this, he placed the documents in his hand. Starlight flashed in his dark eyes, and he seemed to smile.
“Let’s go over and take a look.”
Shang Sizhan stood up and strode out of the study room with his long legs.
Shi Qian didn’t know much about wine, so she was dazzled by the rows of wine racks and the variety of wines.
She had never drunk alcohol before.
Before she was 18, Shang Sizhan forbade her from drinking. After that, she had not drunk either.
Suddenly, she felt sparingly guilty running to the wine cellar to get wine.
However, she thought that she was already an adult anyway. Young Master Zhan probably wouldn’t care if he saw her.
She walked to a shelf of red wine and glanced at the wine.
She randomly picked a bottle in the end. She held it in her arms and quickly walked out.
Just as she reached the door, she suddenly remembered she had no bottle opener in her room.
He turned to look at the wine-tasting table.
A small, exquisite black shelf on the table with a decanter hung on it.
Shi Qian ran over with the wine and decided to open it before leaving.
She placed the wine on the table, picked up the wine opener, and began to open the wine.
Figures pushed the wooden door halfway open.
Then, two tall figures walked in.
It was Shang Sizhan and Yan Yi!
Shi Qian was stunned!
