Shi Qian came back to the villa in the North Garden.
She went straight upstairs and pushed the door open to enter the room.
A figure rested on the sofa.
Shang Sizhan was reading a book. He wore a bathrobe, and his hair was slightly wet. It seemed that he had just showered.
He heard the commotion and looked up at her.
Shi Qian smiled slightly and walked over to him. She was about to sit beside him when the monstrous big boss suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms. The refreshing fragrance of shower gel immediately wafted into her nose.
âWhere did you go?â Shang Sizhan asked.
Shi Qian leaned against the manâs chest and smiled awkwardly. âSouth Garden.
I went to ask Baili Xi what happened in the afternoon.â
âI told you not to go!â
âYes, I understand,â Shi Qian nodded.
Shang Sizhanâs slender fingers slid down her face. He said, âSo⦠What should you do next?â
Shi Qian blinked and looked at him. She pondered for a moment. She spoke slowly. âNext time, Iâll tell Director Han I have a boyfriend. And I plan to marry next year. Iâll tell him not to let his imagination run wild.â
Shang Sizhan heard this, and the corners of his lips immediately curled into a charming arc.
Shi Qian saw that the monstrous big boss finally smiled. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
She has settled todayâs matter.
The next morning.
Shi Qian had nothing to do and tidied up his small study room.
She opened the drawer. She suddenly saw a small black box inside. She hesitated for a moment but eventually took the box out.
Then, he sat on a chair and opened the box. Shi Qian took out an ancient-looking black gemstone ring.
Shi Qian stared at the fingernail-sized black gemstone on the ring. She fell deep in thought.
Two years ago, that man gave her this ring for safekeeping. He said he would come to collect it later. It had been two years, but the man had not come to look for her. She did not know what had happened to him.
Someone suddenly knocked on the door while she pondered. âMiss Qianqian, itâs me. Zhui Ying. Are you busy?â
âCome in,â Shi Qian immediately said when he heard it was Shadow Chaser.
She placed the ring into the box and returned it to the drawer as she spoke.
Zhui Ying pushed the door open and walked in.
âWhatâs wrong?â Shi Qian looked at Shadow Chaser.
Zhui Ying looked at Shi Qian with a complicated expression. He moved his lips. It was like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
âWhatâs with the hesitation?â Shi Qian was puzzled. âWhat do you want to say?â
He hesitated for a moment. Zhui Ying finally spoke. âMiss Qianqian, Iâve found somethingâ¦â
âWhat is it?â
âThe time you broke your leg a year ago⦠It wasnât because of racing, was it? Itâs because of Master Zhan. You used your car to block the car that crashed into him.â
Shi Qian perked open-mouthed and wide-eyed.
She deleted all the surveillance records at that time and even made a fake racing video to make everyone believe that racing had injured her.
âHow did Zhui Ying find out?â
âWhat nonsense are you spouting?â Shi Qian denied it.
âMiss Qianqian, I wonât dare to speak nonsense before you if I donât have enough evidence. Iâve recovered the video you deleted.â
âWhy did you recover the video from a year ago?â
âI was investigating something else and accidentally discovered someone tampered with a surveillance system that day. Later, I restored the scene through the application program you gave me.â
Shi Qian was bereft of speech.
It was a program that she had designed herself. She had sent it to Shadow Chaser to make it easier for him to track the images. She did not expect this guy to use that program to recover those she had erased!
Why did she feel like she had shot herself in the foot?
âMiss Qianqian, this subordinate must report this matter to Master Zhan,â Zhui Ying said..
