The girl left without looking back.
Her figure was tall and straight, and there was a trace of wildness in her elegance.
Only the black-clothed man watched her gradually walk further and further away, until her back could no longer be seen.
This-this, she left just like that?!
Was his familyâs young miss cheated by someone?
No, no, no.
How could he think of his young miss like that?
His young miss was a famous child prodigy in the ancient martial arts world. She was a genius!
But..
The man in black carefully looked inside the car.
Very good. The car window went up again.
He couldnât see anything.
Adjusting his emotions, he was a little hesitant.
âYoung miss, how about this subordinate follow her and invite Miss Qin over again?â
His words did not receive any response from the person in the car.
The black-clothed man was feeling a little apprehensive. Was his young miss angry?
Then did his words work or not? Should he go and bring her back again?
Qin Yiyi chuckled, âYou can come and try!â
The car drove off in a rush.
This gave the black-clothed man a big fright. Then, without thinking, he ran toward another car not far away.
âFollow me.â
They were Missâs guards!
Miss had come out against the masterâs wishes.
If anything happened outsideâ¦
No matter what Miss said, but these people⦠if they failed to protect their master, it would be difficult for them to die even if they wanted to!
Shanghaiâs most famous wealthy Villa District, somewhere.
Inside.
A girl with a cold face sat on the sofa. She looked at the person standing in front of her with a malicious gaze.
âAre you saying that big brother Shang takes her to school and spends the night at her house?â
Crack.
The teacup in the girlâs hand shattered into powder!
Standing beside her was a young man. He was dressed luxuriously and looked to be from an extraordinary family background.
But at this moment, he stood in front of the girl like an obedient pet.
The master was furious, and he did not dare to breathe loudly!
In fact, he was even more afraid that the other partyâs delicate hand would directly crush his head!
His head was not much tougher than that teacup, right?
If he could not pinch it into powder, he could not even pinch it until it was deformed.
The girl was very angry.
But she seemed to have thought of something, and she forcefully suppressed her anger.
âLetâs leave brother Shangâs matter for now. But you should carefully get someone to keep an eye on that girl. If you have any news, let me know immediately.â
Did she really think that she could follow brother Shang just because she had a bit of beauty?
She was just a plaything!
With this thought in mind, the girl paused for a moment. Her cold voice was filled with impatience.
âYou must have called me here for something. Speak.â
After being mentioned by the girl, only then did the young man suddenly remember the purpose of his visit.
He organized his words in his mind and spoke with a probing tone, âThat, the thing Miss Ming asked someone to give me last time was very useful, butâ¦â
Ming Binglan frowned slightly and looked at the young man with a look of direct displeasure.
âAs a person, donât be too greedy.â
âBe careful of being too greedy and losing your life.â
This was a naked threat, or rather, a warning.
The young man standing in front of her instantly broke out in cold sweat.
He was afraid that Ming Binglan would crush his head in the next moment!
If it were any other time, he might have already found a random reason to run away.
But when he thought of the purpose of his visitâ¦
He braced himself and opened his mouth, âMiss Ming, donât be angry. Please listen to me. I just want to ask you. The thing you gave me was said to be 100% effective, but in reality, itâs useless. Moreover, my grandfather and the others are all fine. Thereâs no sign of any ill health at all.â
These words caused Ming Binglan to be slightly startled, and then her voice became even colder.
âYou mean to say that the thing I gave you is fake?â
âNo, no, why would I think that?â
The young man was extremely anxious. He raised his hand and swore. From the looks of it, he was afraid that if Ming Binglan said anything more to reprimand him, he would have to kneel down to her.
Fortunately, the other party only looked at him with an ice-cold expression.
âThen what exactly do you want to say? Just say it.â
âI want to ask Miss Ming. If that thing really loses its effect, is there anything else that you can give me? Just a little more?â
He grinned lightly, âJust a little more will do.â
âI wonât let people really eat it to death. Just like before, my grandfatherâs body is getting worse and worse. Itâs best if heâs bedridden. Also, just let that little brat get into trouble everywhere.â In this way, it wouldnât be long before the entire Gu family would be his!
âYes, there is. However, what are you going to exchange for it?â
Ming Binglan looked at the young man in front of her and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Her eyes were filled with unconcealed disdain.
What noble family? His noble family and family background⦠they were only so-so, okay?!
Yes, indeed, there was no one who could compare toâ¦
âAh, you still want to exchange for it?â
Hearing this, Ming Binglan raised her eyes and laughed.
âWhat, young master Gu wants to eat for free?â
She shook her head and said coldly, âYou must remember, others are afraid of the Gu family, but Iâ¦â
Not Afraid!
Gu Yukui shook his head without thinking.
âNo, no, thatâs not what I meant.â
âItâs best if itâs not what you meant.â
Ming Binglan nodded and looked over calmly.
âI have a lot of things that are useful to you, but itâs still the same old rule. Equivalent exchange.â
âBut I already⦠I donât have anything in my hands now.â
The last time was also a chance meeting with a friend.
He only met Ming Binglan after traveling a few times. At that time, when Gu Yukui saw such a young and beautiful girl, he had some thoughts in his heart at first.
But later, Ming Binglan casually used some tricks to scare him to death.
Respectful!
Until now, even though he clearly knew that Ming Binglan disdained and looked down on him, but he could only endure it.
Who asked Ming Binglan to really be able to help him?!
But Ming Binglanâs words made him worry. After racking his brain for a long time, he still couldnât think of what else he could take out to move this woman in front of him!
Ming Binglan just let him think.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Until the time it took to finish a cup of tea.
She raised her eyebrows and spoke in a cold voice.
âI know what youâre thinking. If I help you achieve what you want, youâll give me one-third of the Gu familyâs property.â
âWhat did you say?â
Gu Yukui was shocked when he heard this and even his voice became louder.
He subconsciously wanted to blow his top with her.
The Gu family was his!
Why should he give it to her?!
But when he raised his head, he saw Ming Binglanâs cold, ice-like eyes.
He took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
âMiss Ming, canât you change your condition?â
âYes.â
Ming Binglan nodded happily. âSpeak.â
Gu Yukui,ââ¦â If he could say it, why wouldnât he have said it earlier?!
Ming Binglan glanced at him indifferently, stood up, and walked out of the room.
âThink about it carefully, and contact my assistant when youâve thought it through.â
Gu Yukui looked at the other partyâs back and his eyelids twitched. His heart steeled, and he blurted out.
âMiss Ming, wait a momentâ¦â
Ming Binglan, who was walking outside, curled the corner of her lips slightly, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
She knew it!
The two of them had been going back and forth, and no one knew about it.
Qin Yiyi naturally didnât know either.
Moreover, even if she knew, she couldnât be bothered with it.
What did it have to do with her? !
It was the 30th day of the Lunar New Year.
After having breakfast, Grandma Fang, Grandpa Fang and Qin Yiyi didnât go out. They drank tea and watched TV at home, and then went to prepare the new year goods.
After buying a lot of New Yearâs goods, Qin Yiyi arranged the fruits and sweets.
When he turned around, Old Master Fang was already in the kitchen, rolling up his sleeves and starting to kill chickens and fish.
She wanted to go over and help.
However, her grandpa thought that she was a timid girl and a hindrance, so he kept shooing her out.
âGo and talk to your grandma. Grandpa is here, you donât have to.â
Qin Yiyi knew what her grandfather was thinking, butâ¦
If her grandfather knew that she had not only killed chickens and fish, but had also personally killed more than one person⦠what would her grandfather think of her?!
Grandfather Fang: That must be because that person had committed a heinous crime, which was why his familyâs little girl had no choice but to act.
Yes, her granddaughter was doing it for the public!
The doorbell rang.
Grandpa Fang looked outside. âWho would come at this time?â
It was the New Year. Who wouldnât be busy in their own home, or hiding in leisure, and even come to visit?
His gaze fell on Qin Yiyi. âWhat are you still standing there for? Go open the door.â
Grandpa Fang felt that it should be that rascal surnamed Shang.
Sigh, although he really didnât want him to come over, at least he looked like a good person during this period of timeâ¦
However, Grandpa Fang felt that he was thinking too far ahead.
How old was Yiyi? She hadnât even graduated from high school. No matter how young the head of the Shang family looked, he should be at least 30 years old?
How could he fall in love with a little girl?!
His mind spun a few times, but in the end, Grandpa Fang still felt that he had to suppress this thought.
Just like his own granddaughter.
He couldnât see anything, so he didnât know anything!
Qin Yiyi opened the door, and the people standing outside were actuallyâ¦
Qin Jiatong and her family of three!
Her gaze swept past Mr. Qin, and she let out a rare chuckle. The corners of her mouth curled up with ridicule,
This father of hers really only had interests in his eyes.
Grandpa and Grandma were, after all, his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Old Tai Shan. But look at how long they had been here.
He only showed his face now!
Moreover, 99.99% of the time, the purpose of this trip was probably to visit his grandparents.
Both parties stood there without moving for a moment.
In the end, it was Mrs. Qin, Fang Yingxue, who had no choice but to pull the corners of her mouth and reveal a smile that was even uglier than crying. âYiyi, why didnât you tell me you had moved? Fortunately, your sister happened to come here a few days ago for some matters and saw you. Otherwise, your father and I would have been hard pressed to find you. Oh right, where are your grandparents? They should be at home. You wonât let your father and I stand outside the door and talk during the New Year, right?â
Before she could finish her sentence, she had already raised her feet and walked into the room.
Qin Yiyi wanted to stop her.
She could indeed stop them.
Howeverâ¦
Thinking about the identities of the two old people who lived in the room, Fang Yingxue was their biological daughter after all.
Perhaps, the two old men wanted to take a look at their daughter or live with Fang Yingxue?
Qin Yiyi wanted to make the two old people happy.
So, really, no matter what the two old people thought or didâ¦
She would support them and wouldnât stop them.
âDad, Mom, what are you doing? Aiya, Mom, why are you sitting on the floor? Itâs so cold.â
When Mrs. Qin entered the room, she saw old lady Fang sitting on the floor mat, happily playing with the building blocks.
She couldnât care less about the matter of the old lady hitting her last time.
All she wanted to do was show off a little in front of Mr. Qin so that his anger towards her would dissipate a little.
She rushed over with a look of surprise, pretending to be a good daughter as she reached out to pull old lady up.
The result wasâ¦
Smack!
Old Lady Fang directly reached out and slapped the back of her hand.
The old ladyâs hand strength was not small.
Now she was angry that she had rushed over and overturned the wooden block castle that she had painstakingly built.
It would be strange if she didnât hit her!
With a slap, Old Lady Fang glared at her angrily.
âWhat are you doing? Canât you see that Iâm building blocks? Donât be an eyesore!â
Seriously, she had spent so much effort to build it with Yiyi just now!
Fang Yingxue, ââ¦â
She lowered her head and looked at the red patch on the back of her hand. The veins on her forehead were throbbing.
She couldnât wait to turn around and leave.
She didnât want to suffer this humiliation!
But when she remembered what Mr. Qin had said to her earlierâ¦
She rubbed the space between her eyebrows and squeezed out a smile again. âMom, How old are you? Why are you sitting on the ground?â
She didnât know how Old Qin would look down on her again in his heart!
Her birth in the Qin family had always been a big problem. In the past, when old Mrs. Qin was around, she had often looked down on her because of this.
When she returned to the Qin familyâs old residence during the New Year, that old thing just watched people make fun of her.
She did not treat her like a daughter-in-law at all!
These few years, she had finally let the other party go. Even Fang Yingxue herself felt relieved in her heart.
And because Mr. Qin and his father did not have a good relationship, they rarely returned to the old residence.
Fang Yingxue made her own decisions in her own family.
She raised her head high.
She raised her head high!
It also caused her attitude to change quite a bit compared to the past few years.
Now, her mother despised her again and again, and even attacked her.
Her eyes were full of gloom, but she couldnât help but endure it. âMom, let me help you up. See, our Tongtong has been talking about missing you guys. You should at least have a good chat with Tongtong, right?â As she spoke, she waved at Qin Jiatong, âTongtong, come over and greet your grandmother.â
âHello, grandmother. Is grandmother stacking blocks? Let me help you.â
It had to be said that Qin Jiatongâs brain worked very quickly.
She instantly thought of a way to get along with Old Lady Fang to suit her interests!
After receiving a delighted nod from old lady Fang.
Qin Jiatong even looked at Qin Yiyi with some joy, with a hint of provocation.
Look, so what if you tried your best to please Grandma and Grandpa?
She just casually said that she would play with Grandmaâs building blocks, and Grandma immediately accepted her happily!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was because of her own charm and pleasing personality!
Qin Jiatongâs voice became more and more obedient and cute.
âGrandma, what do you want to build? Letâs build a castle?â
It seemed like a castle was built just nowâ¦
Then she would help Grandma build a bigger and more beautiful one.
When the time came, she would let grandma compare in her heart which granddaughter was better and which one could make her happier!
Qin Yiyi looked at this scene and found it a little funny.
Accompany her.
I hope you can still keep smiling later!
Mrs. Qin was also very happy. Her own Tongtong was obedient and adorable, and she was sensible enough to help her mother out of trouble!
When she looked up, she saw Qin Yiyi sitting on the other side of the sofa with her head lowered, playing with her phone.
Her face couldnât help but darken. âQin Yiyi, whatâs wrong with you? Canât you see that your father, sister, and I just came in from outside? You donât even know how to bring us slippers, much less serve tea?â She frowned tightly, her tone was full of disdain. âAs expected of a wild girl who grew up in the countryside. She doesnât have any rules at all!â She once again proved that her judgment was right. This girl was indeed not likable!
Qin Yiyi curled her lower lips. It would be wrong if she didnât say anything.
If she continued to pretend that she didnât hear anything, she didnât know what Fang Yingxue would continue to say.
However, before she could say anything, the kitchen door was pushed open with a bang. Old Master Fang, who was wearing an apron, walked out with a kitchen knife in his hand.
That postureâ¦
It was as if he was going to fight with someone!
Fang Yingxue was shocked and her legs started to go weak. âDaddy, what are you going to do with the knife?â
Qin Yiyi chuckled when she saw this scene and winked at Grandfather Fang mischievously.
Grandfatherâs outfit was really handsome!
Grandfather Fang glared at his granddaughter and turned to snort coldly at Fang Yingxue.
âWhat are you guys doing here? If thereâs nothing else, hurry up and leave.â
âDad, how can you talk like that? Old Qin and I brought Tongtong here to see you guys.â
Mrs. Qin felt that she had suffered another blow.
It was the 10,000 points kind.
âNow that youâve seen us, you can leave.â
After a pause, old master Fang added, âThereâs no need to come again in the future.â
It wasnât sincere filial piety, respect, or companionship.
He didnât want any of it, whether it was his own wife or his own!
Fang Yingxueâs face was a little green, âDad, Whatâs wrong with you guys? My mom is like this, and youâre like this too. I didnât do anything wrong, so what right do you have to treat me like this? Have you and my mom forgotten that Iâm your biological daughter?â As she spoke, she even raised her hand and pointed at Qin Yiyi, who was sitting at the side, leisurely playing with her phone. âShe just wants to use you two to anger me. Do you think this wretched girl is truly filial to you? Thatâs all fake.â
This wretched girl didnât even care about her biological mother.
Did she really think that she would be filial to two old people who would only become a burden to her?
Thatâs impossible, alright?
Yet, her parents, who wouldnât change their minds, actually believed her.
This could be counted as pushing her biological daughter out!
Was she really⦠crazy?
âHurry up and leave.â
Old Master Fangâs voice was somewhat stifled.
Glancing at Qin Jiatong, who was playing with Old Lady Fangâs wooden blocks, he felt slightly gratified in his heart.
No matter what, this child was his granddaughter.
To be able to play with an old woman without feeling disgusted, it seemed that there was still a trace of redeeming quality to her character.
In the next moment, Old Master Fang saw Qin Jiatong secretly cast a malicious and angry gaze at Old Lady Fang, who had just overturned the castle model she had just built.
Old Master Fang, ââ¦â
Alright, he retracted that trace of thought!
Shaking his head, he realized she was indeed evil from the root. It was also fortunate that this girl Yiyi had grown up by the old coupleâs side since youngâ¦
But why did their daughter, who was perfectly fine, become a completely different person?
âWeâre going to eat. If thereâs nothing else, you can leave.â
Disheartened, old master Fang directly chased them away.
What daughter, what granddaughter? It was better not to have them!
When Mrs. Qin heard this, she became anxious. âDad, how could youâ¦â
Beside her, Mr. Qin raised his hand and patted her arm. He spoke with a smile on his face, âDad, Yingxue and I were too busy, so we neglected you and mom. We didnât do well in the past, but now that weâve realized our mistakes, why donât we hurry over to make up for it? âDad, youâre an elder. You should at least give us juniors a chance to turn over a new leaf, right?â His gaze fell on Qin Yiyi, who was sitting steadily on the sofa. Did Mr. Qin really not have any thoughts in his heart?
He, as her father, had been standing there for a long time.
The darn girl actually didnât say a word. She didnât even have the mood to ask them to sit down or to help them pour tea.
If she wasnât still useful, heâ¦
Forget it, forget it. He still had to endure it for now. âFather, I didnât know when you and mom came over. I only heard about this two days ago. So when I was free, I immediately brought Yingxue over to see you guys, right? Itâs not a good idea for you and mom to stay here. Sheâs still a child. How about this, Dad? Iâll bring you and mom over to our house now. We can have a good family reunion and have a New Yearâs Eve dinner togetherâ¦â
Old Master Fang waved his hand. âYou guys should leave quickly.â
He had seen through this son-in-law from the very beginning.
Profit was everything!
Donât look at how he was laughing and talking to you, talking about Daddy this, Daddy that.
In reality, you didnât know how he was scheming against you in his heart.
Such a person was tiring!
It was better to have less contact with him!
âYiyi, take your grandmother to wash her hands. Itâs time for her to take her medicine.â
Qin Yiyi nodded and put her phone to the side. âGrandmother, letâs go wash your hands and take your medicine.â
âNo, itâs bitter.â
Old Lady Fang turned her head with a look of disdain and reached out to pull Qin Jiatong.
âHey, why did you overturn my building blocks?â
âYou young lady, why are you so bad? Hurry up and apologize to me.â
Qin Jiatong was startled by the pull, and then she almost subconsciously opened her mouth.
âGrandma, youâre wrong. I didnât overturn your castle. Moreover, your castle was overthrown by yourselfâ¦â
âWhat did I knock over by myself? I didnât knock it over. Yiyi, donât you agree?â
Old Lady Fang Interrupted Qin Jiatongâs words and was very angry.
âHow can a child like you lie? Those who lie arenât good children. Weâre the most obedient, and we never lie!â
Old Ladyâs expression was so proud that Qin Jiatong wanted to cry.
Full of grievance!
Just now, Qin Yiyi came over to ask Grandma to wash her hands and take the medicine.
The old lady should have been angry for a moment. With both hands, she overthrew the zou-shaped castle that she had painstakingly built.
Why did she turn around and say that she did it?
âGrandma, you overthrew it yourself. I didnât lieâ¦â
âWhich family are you from? You are so insensible. Why are you always talking back to an old woman like me? You have no discipline.â
The old lady shook her head as she spoke, mumbling to herself.
âSigh, young people nowadays are getting more and more unruly. They donât know how to respect their elders at all.â
Qin Jiatong,ââ¦â
âItâs better for us to be good and obedient, Yiyi. Why did you call for Grandma just now? Letâs go quickly.â
This little girl looked about the same age as their familyâs Yiyi.
But she was not half as good as her!
She had to send them away quickly. Wouldnât her Yiyi become bad if she followed them?
The old lady thought as she went forward to protect Qin Yiyi behind her, as if she was afraid that Qin Yiyi would pick up the bad habits of Qin Jiatong.
She did not hide her thoughts and actions at all.
When she looked at Qin Jiatong, she was full of dislike. She had made Qin Jiatong feel wronged.
She raised her head, her eyes brimming with tears. âGrandpa, Grandma, sheâ¦â
âIs there anything wrong with what your Grandma said?â
Old Master Fang looked at this granddaughter who didnât look very similar to Qin Yiyi and had a personality that was completely different from hers. His tone was indifferent and distant.
âSince you donât sincerely want to accompany your grandma, then why did you come here after being wronged? Why didnât you leave?â
Pausing for a moment, the old manâs expression was calm.
âIâve already said it before. The old woman and I are not here to look for you. Neither of you need to come.â
âDad, What are you saying? You are my parents. In the future, if you really have any problems, could it be that you are counting on Qin Yiyi, this girl?â
Mrs. Qin was so angry that her lungs were about to burst with fire. How could her father be coaxed by this wretched girl, Qin Yiyi, to the point that he did not recognize his own family?
âWhen the time comes, she wonât be reliable. Wonât you come looking for me in the future?â
âThereâs no need for you to care about us in the future.â
Old Master Fang looked at Mrs. Qin indifferently. âThereâs no need for that now. In the future, when weâre old and sick, even if we starve to death, thereâs no need for you to come looking for us.â
The two of them trusted their own judgment.
One was a good child.
Even if they were really unreliable in the future and didnât care about them, it was still their own choice.
âDad, you, youâve been brainwashed by her. Qin Yiyi, what did you give your grandfather to make him listen to you so obediently?â
Mrs. Qinâs eyes were sinister as she glared fiercely at Qin Yiyi.
âIf you donât explain clearly, Iâll call the police right now and say that youâre a murderer!â
