Chapter 372 Price
"The young lady is very talented. It was because of her appearance that the celebration ceremony could not proceed, and the jurisdiction of the three states was retained for you, sir."
The attendant said, "But it is precisely because of the appearance of the young lady that there are some rumors that are unfavorable to you. The young lady is your sister. According to the division of the inheritance rights of the Sheng family, she also has half the inheritance rights among the younger generations of the direct line."
"In this direct lineage, you and she are the only ones with the surname Sheng."
If it weren't for Jiang Zhiyue, the inheritance rights of this direct younger lineage would definitely fall to Sheng Huaian.
The attendant is Sheng's father's man. He has watched Sheng Huaian grow up since he was a child, so naturally his thoughts are more inclined towards Sheng Huaian.
Jiang Zhiyue's reputation is rising, overshadowing all the young talents in Brandenburg, which will undoubtedly endanger Sheng Huaian's position.
Sheng Huaian's frivolous face suddenly became gloomy.
Gently raising his dark eyelids, he looked at the attendant, "If you were not my father's man, I would almost think you were trying to sow discord."
"As my father's subordinate, are you unwilling to acknowledge her identity like them, or do you not take me seriously?"
The attendant was startled and quickly knelt down.
"Master, I am loyal to you and would never dare to have any other thoughts."
Sheng Huaian leaned on the sun lounger in front of the window, his two straight long legs elegantly crossed together.
He raised his eyebrows, and a playful expression appeared on his face again. His high brow bones looked even deeper under the light and shadow.
He seemed nonchalant, but deep in his pupils, the oppression in his blood still flowed.
Although Sheng Huaian restrained this aura, it forced him to look like most people and avoid revealing the arrogance common among aristocrats.
However, once someone touches his reverse scale, the hidden majesty will instantly erupt.
"She is my sister. Don't let me hear anyone talking about her. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Go to the Qin family immediately and bring her back. Don't let me see her in contact with those unclean men."
The blue and white porcelain cup on the marble table shattered.
Sheng Huaian stood up suddenly, striding away. The blue and white porcelain cup he casually dropped fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
The scalding hot tea and porcelain fragments spilled all over the servant.
The servant's eyes were filled with fear and intent, and he stared at the man's receding back for a long time.
.......
"You really want to draw a line between you and me?"
"Okay, let's do it again tomorrow."
On the way home, Jiang Zhiyue's mind kept surfacing with Qin Si's words.
She straightened her messy clothes, re-combed her hair, and tried to get everything back to normal.
But those lingering on the lips, collarbone, and even... Jiang Zhiyue's breathing stagnated slightly, and the curve of her chest rose and fell uneasily.
Those are traces that can't be erased.
Qin Si is an inhuman beast. Although he tries to reveal a trace of human characteristics, his actions will eventually expose what is innate in his bones.
Jiang Zhiyue should be thankful that the man was injured. Although it seemed like a simple flesh wound, it was actually a broken bone that forced him to give up hunting her at the last moment.
Jiang Zhiyue escaped from the clutches of the beast as quickly as possible.
She finally told Qin Si what she hadn't finished.
If she could only choose one, she would choose Chu Junyue.
The light in the whole room seemed to dim, and the light could not reach the sofa. The man's handsome face was covered with an unreal shadow.
The shadow devoured him.
Jiang Zhiyue longed to stand where the sunshine fell.
In the deep darkness, it seemed as if he would pounce on her and bite her to pieces in the next second.
Jiang Zhiyue continued to make it clear that she came here to draw a line between them, that he should go his way and she should go hers, and that they should never disturb each other again.
"Don't get hurt for anyone again." Jiang Zhiyue might as well say it more firmly.
"You need a wife, a companion, a girlfriend who is compatible with you, and I can't be that person, and I don't have the energy to do that."
The Qin family needs to expand their influence in the world, and their support for the Bai family is nothing more than an attempt to push the Bai family to the forefront and make them their official white gloves.
It’s such a simple truth, even Jiang Zhiyue can see the twists and turns in it, how could Qin Si not know it?
"The Qin family has strict rules. The promises made by those in power are not allowed to be easily changed by the younger generation. If you want to violate the agreement, you will pay a thousand times the price."
Qin Si couldn't bear it.
This strictly hierarchical family is a nightmare for women and a testing ground for men.
Although Jiang Zhiyue didn't know what specific price Qin Siruo would have to pay if he decided to break off the engagement, in short, the worst outcome was that he would be ruthlessly abandoned by Qin's father.
A paranoid person like Qin's father has always regarded him as a "work" that he has cultivated with countless efforts.
If this "work" dared to go against his wishes and insisted on acting according to his own ideas, no one could imagine the terrible consequences.
At first, she deliberately avoided Qin Si and avoided any connection with him, also out of fear of this family.
She treated the wound on his shoulder as a way of repaying his kindness. She opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw those dark eyes, she chose to keep silent.
Just as she was about to leave, Qin Si reached out and grabbed him again.
He made her request that if she wanted to clear the line, she must come to him again.
The Qin family all keep their promises, so she might as well trust him again.
On the way, news came from Qin Si.
He seldom uses social software, and his profile picture on the LINS he registered on is always pitch black, and his profile is empty and bare.
As for the home page, there is no picture.
He never likes anyone's posts or browses anyone's work. He obviously has no interest in social networking.
Jiang Zhiyue's cell phone suddenly rang, and there was a message from Qin Si.
She was a little puzzled. She had clearly set her account to hidden, but he still found it.
On LINS, the number of views of a personal homepage is public to everyone. Not only can the visitor's homepage see it, but the homepage of the person being visited will also display this information.
Jiang Zhiyue's homepage showed that Qin Si had browsed all her posts, and browsed them repeatedly.
When I opened Qin Si’s personal homepage, the page seemed particularly empty, without a single photo to embellish it.
However, at the top of the page, it clearly showed that he had viewed her posts many times, making her his favorite object.
At the same time, several pink love hearts appeared on the homepage of LINS, and the software was inviting them to establish an intimate relationship.
Jiang Zhiyue felt the screen was hot and she wanted to warn the man to stop his boring and childish behavior.
The next second, without knowing when, Qin Si suddenly changed his profile picture.
A pure sky blue.
