Upon hearing the man's words, Fang Zhi's pupils contracted sharply, and the word "no" slipped out without thinking.
Seeing her like this, a cold glint flashed in Qi Shen's eyes. He had someone speak to the head of the department.
Young girls are not allowed to participate in activities that require them to appear in public.
She kept everything from him so well, from rehearsals to the performance, that he suspected someone was helping her. He just hadn't had time to investigate who that person was. He deliberately brought up the class to test Zhizhi, and the result was just as he expected.
"Don't want to? Zhizhi made her brother angry and sad, so she has no right to bargain anymore." Qi Shen lifted Fang Zhi's chin, staring straight into her eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Get in the car or go to class?"
The man's demeanor suggested he was serious and would stay with her, meaning he meant what he said.
In the face of absolute power, ordinary people appear weak and insignificant. With just a word he utters, he can inflict devastating damage on her teacher without even lifting a finger.
Fang Zhi dared not gamble, but she was unwilling to give up.
Rainwater falls to the top of the umbrella, condenses into a jet of water following the curve of the umbrella's bottom, and keeps pounding downwards.
In the misty, blurry rain, the two stood facing each other in a stalemate. Qi Shen, a patient and aloof hunter, looked at the stubbornness in the girl's eyes as if he were admiring the scenery. Fang Zhi, on the other hand, resisted stubbornly with a sudden surge of courage.
The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.
Qi Shen's handsome, refined eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of aggression. "Zhizhi, have you made up your mind?" His gaze swept past the girl's shoulder, looking at the students gradually emerging from the direction of the teaching building. His voice was gentle and casual as he asked, "Or do you want to wait for your classmates to come out and see us?"
The man's words served as a wake-up call for her.
She can stay out of her classmates' sight, but what if the teacher sees her after leaving the classroom? The teacher will definitely come over and ask her about it.
No, the teacher has already helped her too much, giving her opportunities and bearing the pressure to keep it from the department head, etc...
She can't drag her down with her anymore.
Fang Zhi's initial enthusiasm dissipated, all his strength drained away, and he withered rapidly like a flower contaminated with poison, saying in a hoarse voice:
"I'm getting in the car."
"Have you thought it through?" Qi Shen smiled, his slender fingers gently tracing Fang Zhi's eyebrows and eyes. "Although I hate being watched, and I especially dislike the fact that Zhi Zhi is the one being watched, I'll make an exception for today."
Fang Zhi's eyelashes trembled. She didn't understand what he meant, but her intuition told her that there was a deeper meaning in his words.
She looked up at him, not daring to miss a single emotion on his face. Her reflection was reflected in his dark eyes, which were twisted into a strange vortex.
Qi Shen also gazed intently at her.
Claws of jealousy and fear burst forth from his chest, tearing at his heart and soul.
If you don't keep a close eye on her, she'll be snatched away by someone else.
Like Jiang Yuze, if he hadn't discovered it in advance and cut off their contact, who knows what would have happened?
A soft chuckle escaped his throat, Qi Shen's voice was indifferent:
"Your performance at the arts festival was so wonderful, I'm sure many people are curious about you and want to get to know you and be your friend. Why don't we take this opportunity to let them know that you're taken?" As he spoke, he tightened his grip, and a red mark appeared at the corner of the girl's eye, her skin already fair and thin.
Fang Zhi shuddered. "No."
It was obvious that something was wrong with him at the moment. His gentle demeanor and mild tone were just a facade. If you looked closer, you would see a coldness and a desolate view of everything as lifeless.
Who knows what he might do when her classmate arrives? She didn't even dare to think about it.
Fang Zhi raised her hand and grabbed his arm, her lips pale. "Brother... let's go back and talk about it... okay?"
Looking down at the girl holding his hand, Qi Shen remained silent for three seconds before his thin lips parted slightly and uttered a "Okay".
The students who had been chased away by bodyguards once stood discreetly in the corridor, several dozen meters apart.
They could only see Fang Zhi's back as she got into a car with a tall man whose face they couldn't make out.
"The goddess is leaving already? How boring."
"What a waste of my early morning wake-up call, let's go, let's go."
"But aren't the other students in this class still having class?"
Not only students from other departments, but even students in her own class didn't understand why Fang Zhi suddenly left, considering that she had never missed a single class since enrolling.
In the corner, Guo Shuyao typed "Let them start" on her phone and sent it to the person opposite her.

The car doors closed, creating a private space. The surroundings were eerily quiet. The driver started the vehicle as quietly as if he were invisible. This time, the Bentley was in front, with the bodyguard's car bringing up the rear.
After getting into the car, Qi Shen's dark emotions, stemming from seeing the video of her dancing, his journey there, and the crowd of people who came to see him, were no longer concealed.
Fang Zhi was pressed forcefully against the carriage wall by him. His breath and his body were like an indestructible city wall, trapping her in a corner. His kisses, without restraint, were wantonly and fiercely devouring her sweetness.
In a daze, I realized that I felt like prey with a wild beast biting my neck, unable to escape.
When the man finally released her, she realized that her lips were incredibly swollen and red. She pressed her hands against his chest, pleading with extremely uneven breaths, "Brother, can we talk?"
"Okay." Qi Shen held her chin with one hand, agreeing readily. His gaze swept over the pitiful little face before him, his handsome eyes still tinged with a hint of melancholy. "What does Zhizhi want to talk about?"
Before the girl could speak, he continued:
"Do you want to talk about how to deceive your brother? Or are you planning to talk to your brother about letting go of the people who helped you?"
