Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 1.17

[Some people are always so self-righteous, unwilling to wake up. —Xunmi]

—————

"Yes, I believe Dad. Dad, don't be sad. Let's go inside."

Qin Huai Se smiled gently and charmingly, but the eyes hidden beneath her bangs had long been corrupted by darkness.

Her heart was screaming with murderous intent, and despite having planned everything in advance, unexpected things kept happening.

From that bitch's birthday party to today's complete failure, she's going crazy.

'Ding... Female lead's corruption level -70, danger level A. Please be careful, host.'

Xunmi leaned against the elevator wall, seemingly languid, her eyes lowered, making it impossible to discern her emotions.

Tan Zixi, who was a step too late, could only watch helplessly as the elevator ascended.

Feeling dejected, I took the employee elevator that had just come down next to me and followed after them.

[Tonight I hope to see the things I want, and I'll add another 100,000 to the reward.]

The woman in red stood by the window in the corridor, letting the sunlight, like a mischievous child, linger on her.

Okay, I'll wait.

The woman seemed to have given a satisfactory answer, and her expression softened considerably.

As Tan Zixi stepped out of the elevator, he saw Xunmi, who had just hung up the phone.

She leisurely tapped her pert nose with her fingers, a smile playing on her lips, her eyes gazing into an unknown place, as if she had seen something pleasing.

Tan Zixi walked over quietly and hugged Xunmi from behind.

He pulled her into his arms and let out a satisfied sigh.

Only when she's in his arms can she make him feel at ease. It seems we need to speed things up; those who need to be dealt with should be dealt with as well.

Each lost in their own thoughts, neither of them uttered a sound, and they embraced each other quietly and beautifully.

The unintentional aura they exuded shut out all the noise from the outside world, creating a private world for the two of them that no one could intrude upon.

"Brother Zixi, are you here to see Dad? Dad is already in his office."

But some people just can't stand this beauty and insist on breaking it.

Tan Zixi frowned deeply, turned around to look at the voice that had suddenly appeared, and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

"Who exactly are you? I always have to ask you that."

"Since you don't know who you are, then don't act like we're old friends."

"Also, I'm a human, not familiar with things, so please get lost."

His already bad mood worsened after he realized that the person causing the trouble was one of the people he had just planned to kill as soon as possible. He was practically ready to kill someone.

Qin Huai Se trembled uncontrollably, a mixture of fear, anger, and above all, sadness and hatred.

She had already selectively ignored what happened below, and then came up to see a scene that made her insanely jealous.

Suppressing her resentment, she just wanted to catch a few more glimpses of that god standing on the clouds, but...

She didn't understand why Brother Zixi treated Qin Xunmi differently.

She's clearly no match for me, so why, why?

Her lips were already marked with bite marks of varying depths, and even slightly broken, but she seemed not to notice.

Xunmi, on the other hand, laughed out loud without giving them any face.

She really didn't expect that the male lead's sharp tongue was even more powerful than a woman's; she was truly impressed.

Qin Huai Se pointed at Xun Mi with trembling fingers, unable to contain her anger: "You, you, what are you laughing at?"

"Qin Xunmi, don't be too smug. Your father will not hand over the Qin family business to you. You simply don't have the ability to manage the Qin family business."

"And how could you repay kindness with enmity? If it weren't for your father, you wouldn't exist."

Perhaps she was truly shaken by what had happened in the past few days, because Qin Huai Se had long lost her initial caution and prudence.

She couldn't help but feel her blood boil whenever she saw Qin Xunmi, especially since he was the person she had loved for so many years.

How could she remain calm when the person she had always been overshadowed by actually got what she had always dreamed of?

Xunmi looked at Qin Huai se with disdain: "Just now, Brother Zixi asked, do you know what you are?"

"If you don't even know what it is, what right do you have to talk to me?"

"It is nothing but a lowly, wretched creature, yet it dares to dream of climbing over its master."

"Qin Huai Se, do you think you're really the second young lady of the Qin family just because you have the surname Qin? How ridiculous."

"Guess if your dead mother got pregnant with you a month before you reunited with your father, while she was indulging in the erotic cave?"

With a wicked smile on her face and a malicious tone in his voice, she said, "Hmm... you can pray too."

"As for whether you are actually your father's child, a descendant of the Qin family, that remains to be verified."

She glanced mockingly at the middle-aged man who appeared in the doorway, satisfied with the man's shocked expression and his flustered retreat; it was incredibly satisfying.

To be honest, I never expected there to be such a secret.

If she hadn't thought of having someone investigate Qin Huai Se's mother while she was arranging for someone to ambush Fei Zhen Zhi last night, she wouldn't have known such interesting news.

Even the original work doesn't mention this, but searching for it seems too coincidental.

After Qin Huai Se's mother separated from Qin Sheng, she immediately went with a wealthy businessman.

Unfortunately, the man died soon after, and she began to wander again.

After the two met again, Qin Sheng did not investigate, and less than a month later, good news came.

Coincidentally, the other party had spent a month in the Ecstasy Cave because she had no money to support herself before meeting Qin Sheng.

The Cave of Delight, the Cave of Delight—you can tell what kind of place it is just from the name.

As for the outcome, we'll find out tonight.

Speaking of which, those two really are a bitch and a scumbag, a match made in heaven.

Tan Zixi's disgust deepened, and he wouldn't even look at Qin Huai se, as if she were some kind of highly contagious virus.

Qin Huai Se stood frozen in place. None of this was real, it wasn't real, it definitely wasn't real.

Yes, it must have been Qin Xunmi who said that on purpose to deal with me and seek revenge.

"Qin Xunmi, I never expected you to be so despicable and shameless. I thought you were a kind and good older sister."

"So that's why..." Before she could finish speaking, she was immediately interrupted by Xunmi.

"Stop! I don't need your hypocrisy. Get lost, or I'll tear your mouth apart."

"As expected, you can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth. No, you can't expect anything human to come out of a beast's mouth."

"You...you..." The little white flower swayed in the wind, seemingly about to fall over at any moment.

No one had the inclination to sympathize, nor was anyone willing to.

Xunmi pulled Tan Zixi past Qin Huai se and into the conference room, where everyone who was supposed to be there had already arrived.

Qin Sheng think he had a clever plan; did he really think he could use public opinion to force Qin Xunmi to compromise? Dream on!
