The video that the Pei family had someone release was surveillance footage from the day Qin Sheng left the Pei family, but it only captured the part from when Qin Sheng broke Pei Yu's hand to when Qin Xuehua was so frightened by the fruit knife in Qin Sheng's hand that she kept backing away.
Anyone who watched that video would think that Qin Sheng was being aggressive.
But now a Weibo account called "Husheng No. 1" has posted the complete surveillance video, from Pei Yu breaking into her room in the middle of the night until Qin Sheng left the Pei family.
The video is long, but the creator thoughtfully included a speed-up button in the upper right corner, allowing you to watch the entire video in just five minutes.
Qin Sheng read it carefully.
She watched the video play automatically again, her light-colored lips pressed into a straight line.
This video was not uploaded by Zhu Xiyuan.
The thought had barely crossed my mind when Zhu Xiyuan called.
Qin Sheng glanced at Xu Xiao not far away, but didn't look away, and answered the phone directly.
"Boss, someone released the video before me. Do you know who it was?"
Qin Sheng guessed what was going on, but didn't say anything, only simply saying, "No malicious intent."
That's fine.
Seeing that she seemed to know what was going on, Zhu Xiyuan didn't bother to investigate further and changed the subject: "Um, boss, the matter of Xuan Shen is a bit troublesome."
Qin Sheng's gaze sharpened: "Hmm?"
“No matter how much we offered before, the Wen family refused to sell us the Scrophularia. This time, I brought over a Turtle Herb from the QS base to exchange with the Wen family, and they finally relented.”
"but?"
Zhu Xiyuan touched his nose, his voice weak: "At the last minute, the Wen family went back on their word, saying that the Scrophularia ningpoensis was no longer in their hands."
Qin Sheng wasn't surprised, and simply asked, "Have you found out where it is?"
"The Qin family, the Qin family in Ancheng."
"To be precise, it's the second branch of the Qin family. The items should be in the hands of Second Master Qin right now."
Zhu Xiyuan rubbed his temples, his eyes full of confusion: "I wonder what method Master Qin used to get the Wen family to give him the things?"
Zhu Xiyuan really couldn't understand it.
The Qin family, although it is said to be the most powerful family in Ancheng, is incomparable to the Wen family, a century-old family of medicine, which is a well-established family that ranks among the top in Tiandu.
Under normal circumstances, let alone trading precious treasures like Xuan Shen, it would be difficult for the Qin family to even establish a relationship with the Wen family.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but mutter, "Speaking of which, why is it Ancheng again? What's with all this lately..."
He was halfway through his sentence when Zhu Xiyuan suddenly realized something and looked down at his phone screen.
It was pitch black.
The call has ended.
Zhu Xiyuan: "..."
Can't you spare him a few more minutes to listen to his rambling?
There's no love left!

The video on her phone was still playing automatically. Qin Sheng had her head down, and her half-drooping eyelashes covered her eyes, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Xu Xiao had been scrolling through Weibo, feeling excited, when she looked up and saw this scene. She paused, and involuntarily lowered her voice: "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
Qin Sheng looked up: "It's nothing."
Then he clicked on the second trending topic.
It was a Weibo post from "Husheng No. 1", and the link was to an audio recording.
Qin Sheng nodded, and Liang Shuzhen's sharp curses immediately reached his ears.
She listened for a couple of sentences and then exited the interface, immediately clicking on the third item.
This time it wasn't "Husheng No. 1"; the Weibo post was made by a Weibo account called "Little Fairy's Face Dog".
[I'm just a nobody, and I was initially too afraid to speak up, but I couldn't stand it anymore! What do you mean by "violent Chi Zishan"? The truth is completely different! To find out the truth, please watch the full video!]
Qin Sheng's eyes flickered, and she reached out to open the video.
Unlike the high-definition quality of the first video, this video is not only slightly blurry, but the picture is also shaky, clearly indicating that it was filmed secretly.
The video not only captured the entire process from Chi Zishan's provocation to Qin Sheng kicking over the security guard and leaving, but it also included sound.
Although it was somewhat chaotic, one could still faintly hear Chi Zishan's disdainful sneer and curses.
Qin Sheng read it from beginning to end, and then followed the Weibo post to the blogger's homepage.
She stared at the Weibo account that displayed "386 followers | 0 following," and after a long while, a faint smile suddenly appeared on her lips.
Xu Xiao had been watching her closely and naturally didn't miss that smile; she was stunned.
Having known Qin Sheng for over five months, this was the first time she had seen such an obvious expression on her face, and... it was actually... a smile?
Xu Xiao was not surprised; in fact, the Qin Sheng she remembered was truly cold.
It wasn't the aloof or cold kind of thing, but rather a detached indifference towards everything, as if nothing in this world could bother her.
She couldn't help but ask, "What's making you so happy?"
Qin Sheng had already composed herself. She hummed in agreement and casually replied, "There's a girl who looks a lot like you."
He paused, then added, "It looks pleasing to the eye."
Xu Xiao's fingertips twitched.
Finally realizing that, in Qin Sheng's eyes, "pleasing to the eye" was probably already a very high compliment.
Qin Sheng followed the Weibo account of "Little Fairy's Face Dog" to find her IP address, wiped out all related information, and then put away her phone and got up.
"They're gone."
Where to?
Xu Xiao asked instinctively, only realizing she had overstepped her bounds after she finished speaking, and glanced at Qin Sheng nervously.
Fortunately, Qin Sheng didn't mind.
She paused for a moment, then casually said, "Go where I need to go."
