"He's not very bold, but he dares to mess with anyone. How did University A end up taking in such a jerk this year?"

His face was full of disgust, and He Qingfeng and Jiang Xin beside him also looked disgusted.

Zhu Luoxing smiled and said, "University A only accepts top students, not scumbags."

University A: "..."

Although it makes sense, I still feel that these words don't sound very pleasant.

The matter was now resolved. Qi Jiu smiled as she looked at Leng Ruona, who was still somewhat angry.

"Don't be angry. If you lay a hand on him, would Xiao Chuan still be alive? Murder is illegal in China."

As if to comfort her, Qi Jiu reached out and patted Leng Ruo's little head.

Zhu Luoxing was stunned when she heard this. "Sister Qi, are you serious? Xiao Chuan is a boy, how could he get beaten up by the girl next to you? Is it really that exaggerated?"

Perhaps because they are used to a peaceful life in China, they feel that there is still a certain distance between them and matters of life and death.

However, Qi Jiu and Leng Ruo are different, after all, they just dealt with a serious murderer a few days ago.

The girl looked at him seriously, "Not only can you fight, you can kill."

Just kidding. They've been training since they were kids. Dealing with someone like Xiao Chuan is a piece of cake.

If Leng Ruo had a knife on him, he probably would have pulled it out already.

However, since the meaning wasn't explicitly stated, Zhu Luoxing, though expressing her incomprehension, didn't say anything more.

After a long day of classes, I had just returned to my dorm and my phone was already buzzing in my hand before I could even put it down.

The girl looked at the caller ID, walked to the balcony, and closed the balcony door behind her, her voice unconsciously lowering.

"how?"

She narrowed her eyes after hearing what the person opposite her said, then lowered them to look at the students coming and going downstairs, and hummed in agreement.

"wait for me."

When Qi Jiu arrived at the foot of Xingyue Tower, the sky was dark, and Wang De was already waiting at the door.

When he saw the familiar black car, he immediately jogged over to it.

"You've arrived."

Qi Jiu nodded, and was about to toss him the car keys so he could park the car, when she stopped in her tracks and paused.

The dim lighting made her vision a little blurry, but even so, she could still make out the figure opposite her. The one who could bring clarity to her world.

“Ah Lin”.

The man strode out of the dimly lit environment, carrying something in his hand, and arrived in front of her in a few steps.

"Do you think you're made of iron if you don't eat?" Although the tone was a bit fierce, you could still hear the concern in his voice.

The girl subconsciously looked down at the chat history between the two people on her phone.

Qi Jiu: I have to go to the company in a bit.

Ah Lin: Have you eaten?

Qi Jiu: No rush.

Then this scene appeared.

She chuckled, "Well, here you are?"

Inside the office, Qi Silin slowly arranged the food that Xinglan had brought back on the table next to him, while Qi Jiu sat in front of the desk holding the contract.

His face was expressionless, as if this was the only expression one would use in an office setting.

"The Shen family will be back tomorrow to discuss cooperation?"

Qi Silin slowly walked to her side, looked at the large characters on the contract, and raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Um."

"The Shen family doesn't know your identity?"

Do you remember when they first met, they brought their parents along? He didn't pay attention at the time, thinking that the time when they discussed the contract in Xingyue would be the time when her true identity was revealed.

Upon closer reflection, it didn't quite make sense; it seemed like the incident when their parents were called in had already given them away.

Speaking of this, Qi Jiu smiled helplessly. "Sisi helped me conceal my identity."

Qi Silin understood.

"alright."

Wang De stared in disbelief at the contract that had already been handed to him. "You've already made your decision so quickly?"

“I read it once at home, in front of Mr. Shen, and he even asked me to make corrections. The version you see now is the one I revised myself.”

Wang De: "..." Alright.

After Wang De left, Qi Jiu looked at the food already laid out on the table and subconsciously glanced at the person next to her.

Under the light, his dark eyes gleamed.

Her image was reflected in his eyes.

Perhaps he was really hungry, Qi Silin looked at his girlfriend who had started eating without saying a word and fell into deep thought.

Looking at the food that was gradually disappearing, he spoke softly.

"Qiqi, recently there's a group in H Continent that has broken through the ranks of many multinational corporations. They have some connections and have survived for quite some time by acquiring other people's groups."

The girl swallowed her food, her expression unchanged, as if she knew about it.

"Starfall?"

Although she has been attending classes recently, she has not been unaware of this. The multinational corporation that has been rising rapidly is called 'Starfall', and it has been making some big moves recently, acquiring quite a few companies.

But if it comes to real skill, she wouldn't even consider 'Starfall'.

“Yes.” The man nodded. “The owner of ‘Starfall’ is somewhat cunning. You are the representative of the Star Moon China branch, so it’s always better to be careful.”

It's not that I think Qi Jiu is incompetent, but being careful won't hurt.

Qi Jiu nodded. "Don't worry."

The air in the office was rather hot, and Qi Silin seemed a little restless, tugging at his collar, the corner of his shirt having been lifted up at some point.

The girl wiped her mouth with a tissue, looked at the scar on his waist, and remembered what had happened before.

"Ah Lin, how did you accidentally bump into something and get such a big scar?"

Qi Silin subconsciously touched the scar on his waist, his eyes filled with complex emotions, as if he were thinking of something. But when he looked up, all his emotions vanished.

"I accidentally bumped into the blade, and I don't know who put it there."

Qi Jiu looked at him and smiled. The blade was a blade, but she didn't know if he had been careless.

She took a long stride to his side, bent down, and slowly ran her fingertips over the scar, then gently stroked it, as if observing something.

"Have you found the culprit?"

Perhaps it was because her fingertips moved lightly and gently that Qi Silin felt a tickle in his waist and his breathing suddenly became a little unsteady.

"No, she got away; she's rather cunning."

His dark eyes seemed to be filled with a deep, unfathomable light, as if he were thinking of something.

Qi Jiu chuckled at the answer, her expression intriguing. While cunning was mostly used to describe foxes, she liked it too.

What she didn't notice was that the man's breathing was becoming increasingly unsteady.

Qi Silin looked down at her as she bent down and gently stroked the scar on her waist. At the same time, her breath made her waist itch.

The veins on his neck were bulging, as if he was enduring something.

Damn it, is this guy doing this on purpose?

Before the girl could make any further moves, she felt the man beneath her suddenly sit up straight, his eyes filled with a hint of aggression as he looked at her.

The next second, she felt her wrist being grabbed and pulled towards the desk.
