Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Discard it, Dirty Eyes Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Discard it, Dirty Eyes Sitting at the conference room at the top of the company, heads bowed, scribbling on documents, no one dared to steal a glance at Qi Si, who was on the phone.

Qi Si expressionlessly hung up the chaotic call and swept his icy gaze across the room, “Continue.”

The person reporting at the front immediately reopened their mouth, mechanically continuing the report.

Bai Family.

Madam Bai received a phone call late at night from Zhao Qiong, who was crying about the day’s events and complaining about being punished by her father to face the wall and reflect.

Her aunt doted on her the most and would certainly stand up for her.

Madam Bai frowned upon hearing this, “Are you causing trouble outside again? Haven’t I told you, those female stars in the entertainment industry are filthy, and those willing to follow you likely have ulterior motives. You can play, but there’s a limit. Don’t always cause trouble for your father.”

“I really didn’t cause trouble, that Shen Yan is different, she almost ruined me…” As soon as the words came out, he felt ashamed and swallowed them back, “Auntie, please talk to my dad, I really know I was wrong.”

His main worry was that he might be sent to the countryside to farm by Zhao Yi.

Madam Bai glanced into the living room, where cheerful conversation could be heard, and realized she couldn’t manage this nephew any longer, “It’s not a big deal, just apologize to your dad properly. Staying at home for a few days is for your own good. I have guests over, so I won’t talk anymore.”

“Guests? Last time you said a future cousin-in-law was coming to Shen City, could it be…”

Zhao Qiong’s gossip-hungry heart was ablaze with curiosity.

Just as he wanted to ask for more details, Madam Bai hung up the phone.

*

The Bai family living room was full of joy.

Three generations were seated inside, centering around Bai Zhong’s girlfriend, Shen Ning.

The Bai family was very satisfied with Shen Ning.

Father Bai, seeing Madam Bai come in, casually asked, “What is it, so late? Work-related?”

“It’s little Qiong, he caused trouble today and got punished by his dad.”

“Zhao Qiong should really rein it in,” Father Bai wasn’t too fond of the trouble-making Zhao Qiong, “Who did he provoke this time?”

“A female celebrity.”

Upon hearing it was a female celebrity, the Bai family’s expression soured.

Finding trouble with women then running back to the elders for support, Zhao Qiong was truly despicable.

A younger family member, curious, asked, “Aunt, which female star has Cousin Zhao taken a liking to this time?”

“It seems to be someone named Shen Yan…”

“Snap.”

The cup in Shen Ning’s hand struck the table.

Making a slightly heavy sound.

“What’s wrong?” Bai Zhong immediately grabbed her hand, asking with concern.

Shen Ning shook her head, seeming a bit dazed.

This was the second time.

Hearing the name Shen Yan.

The Shen Yan she knew had died more than a decade ago.

*

The next day.

Protests arose from the entrance of the Zhao Family.

The protests were ineffective.

Zhao Qiong was promptly packed off to the countryside.

Yet Shen Yan, earnestly attending a lecture at Shencheng University, was none the wiser.

During the break, Lin Shuangxu handed Shen Yan a large bag of items.

“What’s this?”

Irritated, Lin Shuangxu said, “Love letters.”

Shen Yan: !!!

Lin Shuangxu: “These people pick the cheapest gifts for confessions, just sending over paper. What does that mean? Zero-cost courtship? It’s not the same as it was a decade ago…”

Shen Yan, who had never received love letters, expressed a desire to see them.

“A big bag of paper, you could probably sell it for a few nickels,” Lin Shuangxu said disbelievingly, “I’ve given it to you, deal with it as you see fit.”

Shen Yan merely pulled out two or three letters from the large bag, “The rest, just burn them.”

Lin Shuangxu wanted to ask what she planned to do with the two or three letters but didn’t, “Okay, I’ll give them to the recycling auntie.”

Then, Lin Shuangxu couldn’t resist adding a complaint, “Nowadays, how do these college boys court like kindergarteners? In university, just do a part-time job and you can afford some decent gifts. Like my roommate, who is also pretty, there are all sorts of weirdos chasing her. They text her every day, so stingy. When they go out to eat, my roommate even has to pay. Afterward, they still have the nerve to ask my roommate for gifts…”

Shen Yan had already begun reading the contents of the love letters.

“Shen Yan, I like you, just like my belly which clings tightly to me, loving me deeply! You are my bottom lip, and I am your top lip, lips pressing against lips…”

Shen Yan: …

Don’t say it.

She felt a bit nauseous.

*

Qi Si came to pick someone up.

He had waited for quite a while before he saw a figure approaching, studying earnestly in the campus’s lights.

Qi Si put down his phone and stared through the glass window at the slim figure walking in the night.

The words Liu Su said that day suddenly popped into his head.

His temples began to throb slightly.

He raised his hand to press against them.

Shen Yan opened the car door and sat down, not even looking up, “Mr. Qi.”

Qi Si turned to see her still studying and asked the driver to turn on the car’s light.

Shen Yan finished the last letter and glanced to meet Qi Si’s dark gaze, “Mr. Qi, do you have something to say to me?”

The two were close, and the paper in Shen Yan’s hand was spread out, allowing Qi Si to see the nauseating and explosive words on it…

“Shen Yan, you are my goddess, I want to hear you hum…”

Qi Si’s brow twitched fiercely!

“What is this?”

He couldn’t help it, Qi Si asked in a deep voice.

“Oh, a love letter.”

“…”

Love letter…

She’s reading in college.

Do college students still fancy such childish things?

“Lin Shuangxu was right, they’re quite bizarre.”

Qi Si said coldly, “Throw it away, it’s an eyesore.”

Shen Yan crumpled the paper into a ball and tossed it aside.

When he got home, as he got out of the car, Qi Si coldly glanced at the crumpled paper lying in the corner.

Shencheng University just recruits those with no class, all spouting frivolous nonsense.

Liu Su had run off who knows where, and dinner was still just Shen Yan and Qi Si.

After dinner, Qi Si answered a phone call.

It was from his assistant.

“…President Zhao came over personally today, hinting around about the issues with several of the Zhao Family’s projects.” The assistant didn’t know why Qi Si had suddenly targeted the Zhao Family’s business.

The Zhao Family was completely bewildered!

Qi Group stood tall in Shen City, their business growing ever larger, and their influence increasingly formidable.

Just by speaking out, they could inflict substantial damage upon the Zhao Family.

Zhao Yi had long heard that the person in charge of Qi Group was ruthless and unyielding, not sparing anyone’s feelings when he took action.

The key point was that the head of Qi Group had such capability that it frightened people.

“Qi Group doesn’t need a reason to act.”

The Zhao Family, ignorant of what trouble they had stirred up, was already in deep water.

After hanging up the phone, the assistant gave a stern reply to the Zhao Family.

In one sentence: No reason needed to take you down!

*

The Zhao Family, after much back and forth, still failed to stabilize the losses of several projects, and the flaws that Zhao Yi had managed to handle were unexpectedly disrupted.

He was completely frazzled by the chaos.

Finally, Zhao Yi sought his sister, Madam Bai.

He knew that the mere mention of ‘Qi Group’ was like a crushing mountain, and though he was internally seething with rage, he had to swallow it down.

He couldn’t afford to confront them directly!

After hearing the whole story from Zhao Yi, Madam Bai’s brow furrowed tightly.

In the end, she agreed to step forward and mediate.

Offending the newly-arrived Qi Group wasn’t beneficial, and even though Qi Group was powerful, to Madam Bai, the Bai Family was the local serpent of Shen City, and even if Qi Group was a dragon, it would have to coil.

She believed that Qi Group would give some face to her intervention.

The next day.

The assistant conveyed to Qi Si that Madam Bai wanted to meet him.

Qi Si, of course, had no time to meet these high-society ladies.

In the end, Madam Bai did not meet with the head of Qi Group, as the rumors had suggested.

Madam Bai’s expression tightened after receiving the reply from Qi Group’s assistant, looking rather unhappy.

Shen Ning, sitting together with her, saw this expression and knew that Madam Bai had not succeeded in arranging the meeting.

Since it was the Bai Family’s private matter, Shen Ning, accompanying her, didn’t ask further.

Madam Bai turned around, putting on a gentle smile, “The person I’m meeting is also busy at the moment, so why don’t I take you around Shen City! Then we’ll go to Shencheng University after that.”

Shen Ning was acquainted with a professor at Shencheng University, and during this visit to Shen City, she also planned to pay a visit to her elder.
