“It’s not because of me. I looked like a man yesterday, and I was with other players. I went over when I saw him suddenly hit someone. How could it be because of me?”
Shi Qian stared at Shang Sizhan and said again, “Master Zhan, don’t tell me you still think Jiang Ci likes me?”
Shang Sizhan looked at her without saying anything.
The whole world could tell that Jiang Ci liked her, but she couldn’t.
However, it was normal. Shi Qian could tell that Jiang Ci liked her if he initiated.
He paused for a few seconds. He said, “Be good for the next few days when I’m not around. Don’t mess around. I’ll video call you tonight.”
“Okay,” Shi Qian nodded.
In the evening, Shang Sizhan took a private jet to C Nation for a business trip.
Shi Qian drew comics alone in the study room.
She only returned to her room to sleep at eleven o’clock at night.
These days, Shang Sizhan hugged her to sleep almost every night. She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable being alone that night.
Shi Qian tossed and turned in bed for a long time before she slept. She woke up early and could not fall asleep again the next day.
She got up and went to school early.
It was rare for Shi Qian to come to the library. She stood before the bookshelf and wanted to find a book to read.
The voices of two girls suddenly sounded across the bookshelf.
“Eh?” A girl suddenly asked. “Why haven’t you been with Shi Muxue recently?”
“She didn’t come to school last week. I heard that she’s sick.”
“Sick? She was fine before. How had she become sick?”
The girl looked around and said in a low voice, “Don’t tell anyone else.”
“What?”
“Shi Muxue isn’t sick. The Shi family seems to have offended some big shot.”
“What? What big shot?”
“I don’t know! Our villa is adjacent to theirs. I heard from the property manager that a group of men in black broke into the Shi family’s house last week, although I didn’t see it with my own eyes.”
“How did they get in?”
“There was an explosion! They could have offended the person who blew their door open. They must be some big shot with an arrogant way of doing things. Moreover, someone had heard the gunshots.”
“Damn it! Who had the Shi Family offended? It’s over for them now!”
“Even if it’s not over, it’ll probably be difficult to remember in the future. So, I decided to stay away from Shi Muxue. I fear her friendship wouldn’t do any good.”
Shi Qian heard this and stopped holding the book.
She left the Shi Family that day, and someone else went to the Shi Family!
A group of men in black blew up the Shi family’s main door and barged in!
Such an arrogant move made her feel like someone from the King’s Garden.
Shi Qian suddenly remembered that Su Jinxuan had said that she had poisoned Shi Muxue. And then Baili Xi and Yan Yi mentioned a poison in the garden the other day.
He seemed to have understood something in an instant.
Someone must have poisoned Shi Muxue!
The woman Baili Xi talked about was probably her. She must be the female killer from the Ninth Province.
Shang Sizhan must have sent people there.
Baili Xi was the best at torturing people. Shi Muxue must have experienced a fate worse than death.
However, this was also her fault.
Shi Qian did not have any sympathy for her.
The girl’s voice sounded again.
“Who do you think the Shi Family has offended?”
“I don’t know.”
“I guess… It could be Shi Qian! Shi Qian had Young Master Sheng and Xu Muchen behind him. It would be easy for him to teach Shi Muxue a lesson!”
Hmm, that makes sense..’
