Chapter 139 Slipped away right under his nose



All that could be heard on the other end of the phone was breathing. Lin Yisheng suggested, "Zhizhi, how about we go through the woods again?"

"No." The two words just slipped out.

Fang Zhi rejected her suggestion.

After the initial panic subsided upon hearing that her brother had brought people to the school gate, a determined look flashed in her clear eyes.

She took a deep breath. "Why should I sneak around? Isn't it human nature to be able to go wherever I want? Sister Lin, this time I'll leave through the school gate!"

The girl's soft voice carried a certain air of authority. Lin Yisheng was taken aback for a moment, then pouted her red lips, eager to try.

To walk away right under Qi Shen's nose is a true challenge to his authority; the young girl's courage is commendable!

"Okay, don't hang up, follow my instructions."

"Mm." Even though he knew the person on the other end couldn't see him, Fang Zhi nodded emphatically, as if encouraging himself.

Lin Yisheng gave Fang Zhi instructions over the phone on which direction to run when leaving the school gate. Fang Zhi gripped the phone tightly, listening intently and carefully, afraid of missing a single word.

-

Have you ever seen a rabbit run away?

The little girl moved like a rabbit, her two straight and slender legs moving quickly and nimbly.

Qi Shen sat in the car and watched as Fang Zhi peeked out from the side gate of the school and then dashed off to Conisegre, who was waiting for her.

It was the first time I'd ever seen her run so fast; even two bodyguards couldn't catch her, all just to avoid him.

The man's weariness from staying up all day and night vanished instantly, and the air in the carriage fell into a deathly silence.

You have to understand how much he resented the young girl's avoidance and desire to escape from him, especially after witnessing it with his own eyes...

Qi Shenjun's handsome face, flawless and expressionless, was blank as he pushed open the car door. His feet had just touched the ground when he prepared to negotiate with Lin Yisheng to bring Fang Zhi back.

As a result, the silver-gray sports car performed a beautiful drift, forcing the bodyguards to retreat repeatedly. Then, a slender hand with the middle finger extended out from the driver's seat.

The sarcasm was absolutely palpable.

Before he could take a step forward, the sports car sped away, leaving him only a dashing silhouette of its winged rear.

Qi Shen: "......"

His eyes were half-closed behind his glasses, and his downturned lips revealed his displeasure. He, a grown man, wouldn't hold a grudge against Lin Yisheng for her disdainful gesture.

What is he angry about?

What angered him was that Lin Yisheng had just taken her away right under his nose. What angered him was that she was the wife of his brother of many years, and because of Cheng Shiyan, he couldn't reprimand her.

If Lin Yisheng hadn't interfered, Zhizhi would have been taken back by him long ago.

It's fine not to help, but to hold him back is even worse.

This feeling of being restricted made Qi Shen feel a sense of frustration.

The two bodyguards returned empty-handed, not daring to look up at the man with his jade-like figure and cold aura, and whispered:

"Mr. Qi, I'm sorry, we didn't get to pursue Miss Fang."

The car had disappeared from sight. Qi Shen withdrew his gaze, his eyes falling indifferently on them.

The two bodyguards were even more ashamed.

The two of them couldn't outrun a little girl, especially in front of their employer, which made them feel very ashamed.

Qi Shen stood quietly in place, his face expressionless, his eyes deep and unfathomable. The more he thought about the scene just now, the more obvious the anger and gloom in his chest became.

Lin Yisheng's people can't get into his residence, and she's causing trouble at the school.

After a while, Qi Shen took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket and called Cheng Shiyan, who was on the other side of the ocean at that moment.

The man on the other end was clearly awakened from his sleep by the phone call, and his tone and attitude were extremely rude.

The two exchanged sarcastic remarks over the phone.

Not only did Qi Shen fail to get Lin Yisheng's contact information, but he was also ridiculed mercilessly by Cheng Shiyan.

Staring at the disconnected phone, the man's refined and handsome features were tinged with an almost imperceptible restlessness.

My phone chimed with a message.

Qi Shen assumed that Cheng Shiyan had a change of heart and sent over his wife's contact information.

When he opened the package, he found that another girl who had framed Fang Zhi had been caught, and his men were asking him if he wanted to take her back and lock her up with Fang Zhen.

After instructing Qi Shen to "take it back and lock it up together," he put the phone away.

Right now, it's time to clean up this nuisance that's bothering the young girl. His eyes flickered slightly, a shadow of gloom passing through them. He glanced at the bodyguard beside him and said, "Let's go."

-

The Koenigsegg cruised along the road with an air of nonchalance. Inside the sports car, Lin Yisheng glanced at the girl, who was still excited, and asked with a smile, "Feeling good?"

"Mmm! That feels good." Fang Zhi's eyebrows curved slightly, her serene and beautiful face beaming with a gentle smile as warm as a spring breeze.

Her brother wasn't a mountain weighing on her heart, omnipotent, or able to control her at any moment.

Now that she has truly escaped his pursuit, some of the resentment she felt from being oppressed in the past has dissipated.

She even felt less afraid now, just imagining her brother's dark face.

"As long as you're comfortable." Lin Yisheng stared straight ahead at the road, her tone lazy and casual. "Let's go, I'll treat you to a nice meal as a reward for your first successful rebellion."

“It’s not the first time,” Fang Zhi retorted gently. “It’s the second time.” Before the woman could ask, her clear and captivating eyes reflected a glimmer of light. “This is the first time I’ve secretly participated in the arts festival without telling my brother.”

"It was because of the performance that my brother wouldn't let me go to school and kept me locked up at home."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yisheng, recalling Fang Zhi's professional background, exclaimed in surprise, "You were the one who gave the final performance at Ocean University?"

"Mmm." Fang Zhi nodded gently, his clear black and white eyes fixed on the exquisite and radiant woman, his tone filled with a hint of joy, "Sister Lin, did you see it too?"
