Chapter 17 is betrayal



As the male protagonist of the original novel, Qiu Changfeng was able to lead the Langting Qiu family to become the top of the five major families. Naturally, he has his advantages.

Romantic, unrestrained and uninhibited, this is Qiu Changfeng's external image.

But beneath this person's seemingly arrogant and unruly appearance, he actually has a heart that is eager to eliminate evil and hates evil.

Strictly speaking, Qiu Changfeng and Xie Beiming actually belong to the same category: kind-hearted and honest.

It's just a different form of expression.

And to be fair, in her previous life, even though Shen Qiqi died under Qiu Changfeng's sword, she did not have much hatred towards him.

In her previous life, she was controlled by the Fire Lotus bloodline. Although she did not commit crimes and bring disaster to the people, it is an indisputable fact that she practiced evil arts.

Those who have different ideas cannot work together.

There is nothing wrong with Qiu Changfeng, who belongs to the righteous camp, wanting to kill her, a half-evil monster.

And thinking back carefully to the past, in her previous life, although Qiu Changfeng disliked her, he did not chase her with a sword in hand, shouting and killing her like other righteous people, as if he was determined to kill her.

On the contrary, there was one time when she was almost caught, and it was Qiu Changfeng who secretly created an opportunity for her to escape.

Even when she was surrounded by hundreds of Xuanmen families, her cultivation was wasted and she was imprisoned in a mass grave waiting to die, it was Qiu Changfeng who pleaded for her in front of the hundreds of Xuanmen families.

But in the end, she was tricked by Shen Ning'er, making Qiu Changfeng mistakenly believe that she had not changed her evil nature, so he stabbed her to death.

Therefore, Shen Qiqi did not have any hatred towards Qiu Changfeng.

Of course, there is no love either.

He is Shen Ning'er's official male partner, and she doesn't want to be so ignorant as to come between them like she did in her previous life.

As long as Qiu Changfeng doesn't become her enemy, she, Shen Qiqi, won't care about the hatred of being pierced through the heart by a sword in her previous life.

However, Shen Qiqi did not bear grudges, but Qiu Changfeng insisted on settling the score with her for the damage to Shen Ning'er's reputation.

The young man, who used to be so dashing and uninhibited, now had a gloomy expression and sneered, "No need to investigate. I know who's right and who's wrong. Ning'er just used a few of your spirit stones. I'll pay her back for her!"

After saying that, he summoned a storage bag, raised his hand and threw it towards Shen Qiqi, who reached out to catch it.

It feels heavy in the hand, and even through the storage bag, you can feel the rich spiritual energy released from it.

Shen Qiqi lowered her eyes and looked at the storage bag in her hand, her brows twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

Even though this bag is only the size of a palm, it doesn’t seem like it can hold many spirit stones.

But this is a storage bag, and its storage capacity cannot be calculated by its external size. Judging from its weight and the richness of the spiritual energy, Shen Qiqi feels that the spiritual stones contained in it are probably enough for her to supply spiritual stones for ten years.

As expected of the Langting Qiu family, whose businesses are spread all over the world, they are bold and domineering in their actions.

Shen Qiqi was shocked.

Across from him, Qiu Changfeng was holding his Yuehua Sword, looking at Shen Qiqi coldly. Seeing her staring at the storage bag in amazement, the young man showed contempt in his eyes.

With just such a small amount of spirit stones, this woman was so happy as if she had ascended to heaven. No wonder she abandoned Xie Beiming, who was obviously very outstanding, and insisted on marrying him. She probably went after his family's property.

As everyone knows, in addition to providing daily offerings to the people in the area under his jurisdiction, the Langting Qiu family also has businesses all over the country.

Thinking that Shen Qiqi's so-called admiration for him was fake and her coveting of his family's property was the real thing, Qiu Changfeng felt as disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly, and snorted coldly: "Shen Qiqi, are these spirit stones enough?"

Even a fool could hear the sarcasm in his words.

Shen Qiqi raised her eyes, glanced at him, and nodded with a smile: "Well, that's enough. Young Sect Master Qiu is indeed generous."

"Of course. I'm not like some people who, for the sake of trivial interests, would turn their backs on their relatives. They would even scheme against their own sister and even betray her..."

Before he could finish his words, Qiu Changfeng suddenly widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief, "Chen Qiqi! What are you doing!"

"As you can see, I'm rewarding my servants." After stuffing the bag of spirit stones, which was quite abundant, into Qingluo's hands, Shen Qiqi took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped her hand that had touched the storage bag, while wondering:

“Since those spirit stones were returned to me by Little Sect Master Qiu on behalf of Shen Ning’er, they are mine. Is there any problem with me rewarding my maid with my own things?”

"...No problem!" Qiu Changfeng gritted his teeth.

"If there's no problem, then why is Young Sect Master Qiu reacting so strongly? Is Young Sect Master Qiu dissatisfied with my reward to my servant?"

Qiu Changfeng: “…”

Of course he is dissatisfied!

This woman actually gave such a large bag of spirit stones to a servant casually... It was a bag of spirit stones, not snacks!

And why did she keep wiping her hands... What was she complaining about?!

Anger flashed on Qiu Changfeng's handsome face, his teeth clenched his cheeks, and the breath coming out of his nose was heavy and deep. The look he gave Shen Qiqi was like a whip, as if he wanted to hang her up and whip her.

It's so abominable. He hasn't even disliked her yet, but this woman dares to dislike him first!

However, this was the first time that Qiu Changfeng, who always attracted the attention and screams of girls wherever he went, was despised by a woman like this!

Especially the woman who despised him, and who was going to be officially engaged to him tomorrow.

This was the first time Qiu Changfeng had been humiliated in front of a woman. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The stubbornness of a young man suddenly rose. He sneered and said to Shen Qiqi, "Second Miss Shen, you have misunderstood. I have no complaints. I was just wondering, since I have already returned the spirit stone to you on Ning'er's behalf, should you also give Ning'er an explanation?"

A sentence said with gnashing teeth.

Especially the phrase "Second Miss Chen", it felt like rolling over a knife edge, and it sent chills down the spine of the listener.

Shen Qiqi glanced at Qiu Changfeng suspiciously. For a moment, she wondered if Qiu Changfeng had been possessed by someone else.

Moreover, the person who took over his body had serious mental problems.

Although she and Qiu Changfeng had not yet officially gotten engaged, the two families had already exchanged engagement letters and even tokens of engagement, so they were just going through the motions.

But now, Qiu Changfeng was not only paying off Shen Ning'er's debt because she came to question her late at night, but also kept calling her "Ning'er".

Those who didn’t know would think that Shen Ning’er was his fiancée.

Although Shen Qiqi no longer had any interest in Qiu Changfeng, she was still furious at his blatant betrayal.

That's right, betrayal.

Obviously she is Qiu Changfeng's fiancée, but Qiu Changfeng defends Shen Ning'er so much and even yells at her to give Shen Ning'er an explanation. What else can this be but betrayal?
