Chapter 61 Coward
Because the drone show that night was so spectacular, someone with ulterior motives filmed it and posted the video online.
Instantly, the hashtag related to Bai Zhenzhu's birthday surged to the top of Weibo's trending topics.
The mysterious man who chartered a luxury yacht and spent lavishly on his girlfriend's birthday has become a hot topic among netizens.
Bai Zhenzhu was lying on her bed in her dorm room scrolling through Weibo, and she would even give a like to a comment praising her good fortune.
Sitting in her chair, eating an apple, Yin Jiaxi said enviously, "Pearl, you finally did it! You finally made that high and mighty young master of the Shi family bow down to you! This drone show really caused a sensation across the country. If these female netizens knew that not only was there a drone show, but even that yacht worth over 100 million yuan became a birthday gift, they would be so jealous that they would want to smash their heads against their phone screens!"
Bai Zhenzhu stared blankly at the yacht key on the table, which reeked of money.
Shi Jin is really generous; he actually gave her a yacht as a birthday present.
Isn't it said that rich people are incredibly stingy?
"Pearl, you don't know how to drive a yacht, why don't you just sell it? That way you'll become a billionaire, and I'll be the billionaire's best friend! Hahaha, just thinking about it is amazing!"
"Yes, we should sell it."
Bai Zhenzhu also considered this issue. She had heard that the annual maintenance cost of a yacht alone could be hundreds of thousands of yuan, making it a veritable bloodsucker.
She has no money, so selling it to get cash would be the best option.
However, she doesn't know much about this, and she'll have to ask Fu Nansheng sometime.
"By the way, Pearl, what's your relationship with Shi Jin now? Is it ambiguous? Or are you already dating?"
Yin Jiaxi was also a little confused about the ambiguous relationship between Bai Zhenzhu and Shi Jin.
Bai Zhenzhu suddenly remembered Shi Jin's answer that night and immediately felt a little nauseous.
Shi Jin is like a rock in a latrine, both smelly and hard.
How can some men be so clueless about romance?
Bai Zhenzhu rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, "He's such a contradiction. He clearly likes me, but he insists on acting cool and saying nonsense like, 'Maybe he likes me.'"
"Could it be that he was hurt by Li Qianni, and now he's become wary of everything?"
"That only proves he's a coward! And I happen to hate cowards!"
...
Back in her dorm room, Shi Jin was followed by Qin Shen's probing and aggressive gaze.
He didn't take it seriously and started studying the case on his tablet.
Halfway through his research, he took off his glasses, put down his tablet, and prepared to stretch and take a break.
When I turned around, I saw that Qin Shen was still in the same pose and with the same look in his eyes.
He coughed twice on purpose, but Qin Shen didn't budge.
"Qin Shen! Do I have gold on my face?"
Qin Shen snapped out of his daze and said sarcastically, "It's not that you have gold on your face, it's that you own a gold mine. Giving away a yacht worth hundreds of millions just like that, ha, you really are generous!"
Shi Jin then realized what was going on with Qin Shen's strange expression.
Since Qin Shen brought this up himself, he needs to have a serious talk with him.
He tugged at his collar, turned his chair toward Qin Shen, looked him straight in the eye, and said seriously, "Qin Shen, we're good brothers, so I think it's necessary for us to have a deep and sincere conversation about the white pearl."
Qin Shen, abandoning his usual nonchalant attitude, replied more seriously, "Okay, let's have a dialogue!"
...
"Did you arrange for the drones?"
"Yes, it was my arrangement."
"The yacht was a gift from you."
"Yes, I gave it to you."
"You know I've already celebrated Pearl's birthday, so why are you celebrating her birthday again? Are you trying to embarrass me?"
"I didn't mean to embarrass you, I just wanted to celebrate her birthday."
"You like pearls?"
"..."
What does it mean by not answering?
"It's nothing, I just felt there was no need to tell you."
"Okay, I won't ask about that. What about Li Qianni? What are you going to do about Li Qianni?"
"From now on, her affairs are none of my business."
"So you still changed your mind after all, didn't you?"
"There was no such thing as being fickle; I simply came to a complete understanding of my own heart."
"So, deep down, you've fallen for your best friend's girlfriend?"
"Bai Zhenzhu is not your girlfriend!"
"She will be my girlfriend!"
"Oh, really?"
...
Li Qianni had just been discharged from the hospital when she saw the news online, as well as the grand drone birthday performance.
The three large characters "White Pearl" were like three thorns, piercing her heart and drawing blood.
Later, she asked Qin Shen if the yacht belonged to Shi Jin.
Qin Shen said yes, and added that Shi Jin had actually given the yacht to Bai Zhenzhu as a birthday present.
This made Li Qianni, who was already depressed, lose the will to live.
She hated it, but she was powerless to do anything about it, so she could only hide in her room and cry silently.
Later, her mother came in, locked the door, and whispered a few words in her ear, which gave Li Qianni, who was on the verge of death, a renewed hope for life.
"Mom, is this really going to work?"
Although Li Qianni is willful and domineering, she is still a law-abiding citizen at heart, and she really wouldn't dare to do anything too outrageous.
But she was tempted by her mother's words and began to feel restless.
The mother patted Li Qianni's hand and comforted her, "Nini, I've been through this before. Trust me, as long as this succeeds, Shi Jin will definitely come back to you, and that little bitch Bai Zhenzhu will definitely go to hell!"
Li Qianni gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with venom, and finally nodded, saying fiercely, "Mom, I want Bai Zhenzhu to go to hell, I want her to die without a burial place!"
“That’s right. You must remember that no matter what obstacles you face, Mom will make sure you firmly sit in the position of the young mistress of the Shi family. Shi Jin is just confused right now. Let’s help him get back on track. He will be grateful to us.”
"Yes, Mom, I'll do whatever you say. I'll do anything to get Shi Jin back by my side and to become the young mistress of the Shi family."
Then, encouraged by her mother, Li Qianni took out her phone and called Shi Jin.
Although the call didn't go through the first time, Shi Jin answered it the second time.
His voice was cold and indifferent. "Is there something you need?"
That tone was even more chilling than that of a stranger.
Li Qianni tried to ignore the coldness and instead said warmly, "Shi Jin, do you remember you promised me you would take me to a comic convention in the neighboring city?"
Shi Jin recalled that it was indeed true, but he had promised Li Qianni when he had feelings for her.
"Yes, I remember."
"Xue Ning just told me that the comic convention starts the day after tomorrow. I really want to go, but you know I'm a bit silly and have never traveled far from home before. I'd like you to come with me, okay?"
Fearing Shi Jin would disagree, she pleaded humbly, "Shi Jin, even if there's no possibility between us anymore, can't we even be friends? We're just going to a comic convention. As long as we have a clear conscience, are you afraid Bai Zhenzhu will misunderstand? Doesn't your Shi family's heir even have this much freedom?"
She was provoking him.
But the results were surprisingly good.
Shi Jin agreed.
"I can go with you, as a friend."
Shi Jin is a very trustworthy person. Since he made a promise to her before, even though time has passed, the promise is still a promise and should be kept.
"Thank you, Shi Jin."
Li Qianni excitedly closed her phone, then hugged her mother and said happily, "Mom, Shi Jin agreed! Can I really win back Shi Jin's heart?"
"Don't worry, Shi Jin can only be yours."
