Perhaps it was Ling Shen's sincere attitude, much like that of a real estate agent, that moved Qian Sui, and she finally stopped being so resistant to him.

The Emperor asked, "What use are you now?"

Qian Sui asked this question from the bottom of his heart. After all, Ling Shen had said that he was still useful, so Qian Sui was bound to ask him what use he was.

Ling Shen was somewhat bewildered by Qian Sui's question.

As the young CEO of the prestigious Ling Group, he has a constant stream of people fawning over him and admiring him.

He never imagined that he would be reduced to having to explain to the Emperor that he was still useful.

Seeing that Ling Shen didn't answer, Qian Sui gave him a look that said, "I knew you were useless."

Upon seeing this, Ling Shen quickly said, "For example, I can take you home, or you can use my secret base at school."

After thinking about it, Qian Sui realized that it made some sense.

Seeing that Qian Sui's attitude had softened, Ling Shen continued, "Besides, it's so late now, it's inconvenient for you to go home by yourself."

The Emperor said, "I can ask Xiao Liu to come and pick me up."

Ling Shen lied without batting an eye: "It's so late, Xiao Liu should be off work by now. If you ask him to pick you up now, you're just asking him to work overtime. He's probably already on a date with his girlfriend somewhere."

Although he was a little confused by Qian Sui's question, Ling Shen was a seasoned veteran in the business world, and it was more than enough for him to fool the naive Qian Sui.

Sure enough, after hearing Ling Shen's words, Qian Sui gave up the idea of ​​asking Xiao Liu to pick her up.

Ling Shen pressed his advantage: "So, I'll take you home. Besides, your friend Luo Xinyue just asked me to take you home. If I don't take you home, your friend will blame me."

Qian Sui originally wanted to insist on going back on her own, but when Ling Shen mentioned Luo Xinyue, Qian Sui gave in.

Seeing that it was getting late, Chisui waited for the doctor to finish treating the puppy's injuries and give it a quick wash. After confirming that the puppy was alright, she followed Ling Shen out of the pet hospital.

The driver was already waiting at the door, and Qian Sui and Ling Shen sat in the back seat.

After getting in the car, Qian Sui gave the address of her older brother Qian Ci. Upon hearing this, the driver stepped on the gas and headed towards that address.

Chitose played all day and went through so much, so she's been feeling sleepy for a while now.

So Chisui didn't say much along the way.

Ling Shen's usual way of interacting with the driver is in silent mode; when Qian Sui doesn't speak, the car becomes quiet.

Qian Sui always rode in Xiao Liu's car to and from school, so even at night, when the car arrived near her older brother's house, Qian Sui could recognize him.

When the driver brought the car to the vicinity of the elder brother's house, Chitose, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

Let's stop here.

Ling Shen glanced outside. Although they had arrived at this villa area, they were still some distance from Qian Ci's house.

Ling Shen then said, "We're not home yet."

Chitose: "Yes, we're not home yet, so we have to get off the bus."

Ling Shen was a little puzzled: "Why? I can take you to your doorstep."

Qian Sui was very frank and didn't intend to hide anything, so she said, "I can't go to my doorstep, or my older brother will find out."

Ling Shen's brow twitched. Well, he was being disliked again.

The driver glanced at Ling Shen, and only after receiving Ling Shen's signal did he pull the car over to the side of the road.

Qian Sui opened the car door and got out, saying to Ling Shen, who was sitting in the back seat, "Thank you for taking me home. I'll treat you to dinner next time you have time."

Ling Shen smiled and nodded: "Be careful on your way home."

Chitose hummed in agreement, then turned and walked towards home.

Ling Shen watched Qian Sui walk towards home until she was out of sight, then said to the driver, "Let's go home."

Qian Sui said she was with her friends, so Qian Ci assumed that Qian Sui would come back with Luo Xinyue, and waited in the living room.

As soon as Chitose arrived at the door, the family's nanny said, "Mr. Chitose, Miss Chitose is back."

Qianci immediately got up to greet Qiansui. Qiansui lifted her skirt and ran to Qianci, throwing herself into his arms and saying, "Big brother, I'm back!"

Qianci was overjoyed to be embraced by Qiansui, but after Qiansui let go of him, Qianci saw Qiansui's clothes.

Her light-colored dress was stained with blood and other dirt, making it look dirty.

Qianci immediately frowned and tensed up.

"What happened? Are you hurt?"

Chisui shook her head and explained, "This is blood from the dog. I took it to the hospital, and that's how my clothes got dirty."

Qianci breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Remember to have someone accompany you next time you go out. It's so chaotic outside, what if you encounter danger?"

Qianci knew that Qiansui had learned martial arts on Mount Tian, ​​but in his eyes, his sister would always be his sister, and her fighting ability would always be at the level of an infant.

Qian Sui patted his chest and said, "I'm fine. Those people who tried to bully me were all chased away by me."

Qianci: "Bullying you? Who did it?"

Qian Sui told Qian Ci about everything that happened to her in the alley after she saw the puppy that day. After she finished speaking, she took out her wallet and handed it to Qian Ci, saying, "But brother, I don't have any money left. Could you give me some more?"

Qianci always gave Qiansui a lot of pocket money, but Qiansui basically had no expenses.

If Qian Sui asked him for money normally, Qian Ci would be happy.

But now that something like this has happened, Qianci's face darkened.

Chitose encountered such a thing in that place.

Although Chitose was not injured, and she mentioned it so casually, it means she was not affected in any way.

But Qianci was still worried.

He needs to investigate the situation in that area.

Qianci has always been decisive and efficient at work, but he didn't want to show it in front of Qiansui.

He smiled indulgently, reached out and ruffled Qian Sui's hair, and said, "If you run out of money, just ask your big brother. I'll give you as much as you need. Go upstairs and take a shower and change your clothes. You're all dirty, just like a little dog."

Qian Sui nodded and obediently went upstairs to wash up.

After watching Qian Sui go upstairs, Qian Ci returned to her study and began contacting her assistant.

"Go check the alley next to the night market near the university town tomorrow, and try to get the surveillance footage from there."

Qianci's assistant wasn't surprised to be assigned a task late at night, but he was puzzled as to why Qianci wanted to investigate a particular place.

The assistant asked in confusion, "Is it a new project?"

Qianci: "No, but that place can't be kept."

They robbed the emperor of his money and harmed his family. It's wishful thinking to think that this place can be preserved unscathed!

The assistant didn't understand the ins and outs of the matter, but hearing Qianci's tone, he knew he had to take it seriously.

He said, "Understood, I'll take care of it tomorrow."
