Is Chapter 50 worth it?
Actually, Shi Jin didn't see it. Later, a very gentle and elegant woman came out from the side door.
Her name is Mu Wanqing, an English teacher at Peking University.
She naturally walked to the man's side and intertwined her fingers with his.
Bai Zhenzhu, however, immediately released the man's arm, demonstrating her keen perception.
She looked at them with an expression of both envy and blessing.
Then she said in a sweet voice, "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm going back to school now. You two finally got a break, go enjoy your time together, I won't bother you anymore."
The man called "Brother" is Bai Zhenzhu's older brother, Bai Juncheng, who shares the same parents. He excelled academically from a young age, skipping grades to become the youngest postdoctoral fellow at Peking University's medical school, and later worked as a surgeon at Kyoto First Hospital.
He and Mu Wanqing met through a friend's introduction. They shared similar interests and values, and quickly established a relationship that developed steadily.
Today is the first time Bai Zhenzhu has met her future sister-in-law. Although she still feels that Mu Wanqing is not good enough for her overly outstanding brother, she is still barely acceptable.
Before leaving, Bai Juncheng instructed, "Don't cause trouble at school, study hard, and call me if you need anything, or you can contact your sister-in-law."
Mu Wanqing chimed in, "That's right, Pearl. You can call me anytime if you have any problems with your life or studies. I'd be happy to help you."
"Okay, brother and sister-in-law!"
After watching her brother and sister-in-law get into the car, Bai Zhenzhu stopped smiling and took a taxi back to school.
...
"Young Master Shi, what's wrong? Why are you so gloomy?"
As soon as Shi Jin returned to the dormitory, he sat down in a chair, his lips drooping, staring blankly at the book "Macroeconomics".
What frightened Qin Shen the most was that Shi Jin actually started sighing; this was truly something he had never seen before.
"Young Master Shi, did I do something wrong again?" Qin Shen asked cautiously.
Suddenly, Shi Jin turned his head and looked at him with a very strange and intimidating gaze.
Then a deep, magnetic voice rang out, containing an almost imperceptible chill, and asked indifferently, "Have you been in contact with her recently?"
"Huh? Who is it?" This abrupt question left Qin Shen even more confused.
Shi Jin's eyes grew even deeper, and Qin Shen finally realized who he was talking about.
He suddenly realized and said, "You mean Pearl? Of course I still keep in touch with her. I even went with her to volunteer at the stray dog rescue center the day before yesterday."
"A stray dog rescue center? Who? White Pearl?"
Shi Jin seemed to have heard a ridiculous joke, asking three questions in a row, his face full of disbelief.
"Yes, Mr. Shi, you have no idea how kind and loving Pearl is. She prepares lots of food for the dogs, bathes them without getting dirty or tired, and regularly donates to the rescue center. Pearl only has a few thousand yuan of pocket money each month, but yesterday she donated ten thousand yuan all at once. To be honest, I feel quite ashamed. I spend all my money on eating, drinking, and having fun, and I've never done anything so meaningful before..."
"The day before yesterday was the first time I saw so many disabled and abandoned dogs. I was deeply shocked. I realized that there are so many little lives in this world that need to be rescued..."
Qin Shen was shocked, as was Shi Jin.
This was the first time he had ever heard that Bai Zhenzhu had such a kind side.
He really finds it hard to equate that ruthless, scheming woman with that kind woman who loves animals.
"Young Master Shi, I have truly fallen in love with Bai Zhenzhu..."
Shi Jin stared blankly at Qin Shen, his eyes deep and unfathomable, his dark pupils concealing a bottomless, unfathomable river...
Meanwhile, Bai Zhenzhu, after seeing her brother and sister-in-law, was lying in bed, covered in rashes, breathing heavily in discomfort.
Yin Jiaxi tenderly applied medicine to her, saying, "Pearl, tell me, you know you're allergic to dog hair, why did you still insist on going to that stray dog rescue center? Aren't you afraid of dying there?!"
Bai Zhenzhu said weakly, "If you don't go into the dog's den, how can you catch the dog? If I don't do this, how can Shi Jin know how kind and innocent I am?"
"But I don't understand, if you want Shi Jin to know about this, why did you go with that idiot Qin Shen?"
"You don't understand. Shi Jin is a very smart and sensitive person. Being too deliberate will only arouse his suspicion. Isn't it more convincing to hear it indirectly from a good friend?"
“But is it worth it to sacrifice your own body to do these things?” Yin Jiaxi still couldn’t agree with her radicalism.
Bai Zhenzhu sneered and didn't rush to answer.
After a few seconds of silence, he finally spoke: "It will be three months in a week..."
"Huh? What three months?"
Bai Zhenzhu didn't say anything more, closed her eyes, and prepared to get a good night's sleep.
...
The following evening, Shen Yifan hosted a party at Dusk to celebrate his relationship with Li Tiantian.
Shi Jin didn't want to go at first, as he still had an economics case to work on, but he couldn't resist Shen Yifan's persistent pleading, so he went anyway.
As soon as he entered the private room, he saw Shen Yifan holding the shy Li Tiantian and drinking a toast together, surrounded by a group of friends cheering him on.
Shi Jin looked away, found a seat a little further away from them, and took a sip of a glass of Romanée-Conti.
It seemed that everyone in the private room, except for him, was quite happy.
But why is he unhappy?
It seems to have started around noon today after I saw the white pearl.
At this moment, a young master who was on good terms with Shen Yifan sat down and said to Shi Jin with a fawning smile, "Young Master Shi, drinking alone is so boring. Let me find you a few clean girls."
This young master can't be described as completely ignorant, but he's certainly a well-known playboy.
Shi Jin glared at him with disdain and said coldly, "I only like to drink alone."
The young master left dejectedly and turned to find the hostesses who were serving him drinks.
Midway through, Shi Jin decided to go out for some fresh air.
The people in the private room were all drunk and playing very recklessly. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he decided to leave to avoid seeing them.
It wasn't that he was antisocial; rather, he had always been aloof and arrogant since childhood, and couldn't stand the extravagance and decadence of the world.
Many people who don't know him might assume that someone from such a family background must be a playboy who preys on women.
But in reality, he's never even been in a relationship; he's just an innocent, adorable puppy.
He had just stepped outside when he was stopped by a sexy and alluring older woman who appeared slightly tipsy.
Suddenly, a strong scent of perfume wafted into his nose, almost bringing tears to his eyes.
"Little brother, how about having a drink with your sister?"
The older woman, still believing herself to be incredibly charming, smirked and flirted.
Shi Jin scoffed disdainfully, "They really overestimate themselves."
He doesn't like older women with such heavy makeup, okay?
"Excuse me, ma'am, could you please move aside?"
The older woman was so shocked that she immediately sobered up; this was the first time someone had ever called her "auntie" in a bar.
She was so angry she was jumping up and down, but Shi Jin didn't give her a chance to speak at all. He pushed her away and walked forward coldly and ruthlessly.
"Who are you calling an old auntie? Hey? Explain yourself clearly, don't leave yet!"
The older woman wanted to chase after him to continue arguing, but her friend persuaded her to stop.
"My dear aunt, what are you doing? That's the young master of the Shi family! Of all people to mess with, why did you have to provoke him? Get out of here! If you don't want your family's 4S store to go bankrupt tomorrow, you'd better get far away from here!"
Finally, the older woman was lifted up by her companions and carried back to the private room...
