Qian Sui had saved Ling Shen's contact information by name, so his name popped up as soon as the phone rang.
Shang Ziyan glanced at the name on the list and her heart skipped a beat; her gaze changed slightly.
Qian Sui didn't react much. She put her phone away and said to Shang Ziyan, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."
Shang Ziyan's smile froze on her face.
"good."
After Qian Sui finished speaking, she turned around to answer the phone. Shang Ziyan's hand holding the phone froze in mid-air. After a moment of stunned silence, she finally withdrew her hand.
Shang Ziyan held her phone, her eyes fixed on Qian Sui's back.
The drama club members had almost all left, and there were hardly any people around, so Shang Ziyan didn't need to suppress her expression too much.
She has been trying to get closer to Ling Shen since she arrived at the school.
Even the last time she was injured, it was because the person behind her found out Ling Shen's whereabouts and made her deliberately wait at the school gate, and then pretend to faint in front of them.
They knew Ling Shen's personality; he wouldn't meddle in other people's business. But Lu Jiayan was different; he would get involved.
Moreover, as soon as she entered the school, she spread the news that she looked very much like Chisui, especially the beauty mark under her eye.
The organization behind her had long known the reason why Ling Shen was so kind to Qian Sui: it was because Qian Sui had the same beauty mark under her eye as the girl in his memory.
So as long as the news is released that she looks a lot like Qian Sui, Ling Shen will definitely notice her.
Moreover, judging from Ling Shen's reaction that time, she knew she had guessed correctly.
But that was the only time they met; Ling Shen didn't appear at school often.
Even if he says he'll come back to school, there are many courses he no longer needs to take.
Therefore, it is very difficult to encounter Ling Shen.
She put in so much effort and thought, but still made no progress.
However, Chitose easily obtained what she wanted but could not get.
As Shang Ziyan watched Qian Sui's retreating figure, her eyes sharpened.
Shang Ziyan gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles turning white.
Qian Sui didn't notice Shang Ziyan's gaze. She took her phone, turned around, and walked to a corner to answer Ling Shen's call.
As the emperor faced the wall, he seemed to be reflecting on his mistakes.
Chisui, her fingers resting on the wall, pressed the answer button and softly called out, "Hello."
Ling Shen's voice rang out from the other side, cold and composed.
Where are you?
When Ling Shen was driving, he saw Luo Xinyue walking alone, and he guessed that Qian Sui was not with Luo Xinyue.
But at this time, it was mealtime, and Luo Xinyue was free, but Qian Sui was still not by Luo Xinyue's side, so Ling Shen felt that something was wrong.
So Ling Shen called Qian Sui to ask what she was doing.
Ling Shen always felt that Zhang Shaochuan would go to see Qian Sui all the time, whether he had something to do or not.
He didn't want Qian Sui to have too much contact with him.
Chisui scratched at the wall with her hands, and said with her head down, "I'm in the small auditorium now."
Ling Shen: "What are you going to the small auditorium for?"
Many student organizations meet and apply for space in the small auditorium.
Logically speaking, Chitose wouldn't go there since she doesn't participate in any clubs or have any programs.
Upon hearing this, Chisui said, "I'll rehearse the program."
This was unexpected for Ling Shen. He asked in return, "A program? What program? Did Luo Xinyue pull strings to get your fortune-telling program approved in the initial review?"
Chitose: "......"
She felt somewhat uncomfortable hearing those words.
Chisui snorted and puffed out her cheeks, saying, "No way! I participated in the drama club's program."
Drama club?
Ling Shen became interested, a smile playing on his lips, and asked with great interest, "What's wrong? Does the drama club's script need a character who can play Tai Chi?"
Chitose: "..."
Qian Sui was a little annoyed; why did he always make fun of her?
Chisui snorted again: "That's not true!"
Ling Shen was just teasing Qian Sui. Seeing that Qian Sui was about to get angry, he went along with Qian Sui's words and said, "No, no."
Qian Sui didn't speak, but said, "Did you call me just to laugh at me?"
Ling Shen rested one hand on the driver's seat and answered the phone call using a Bluetooth headset.
Ling Shen adjusted his posture and said to Qian Sui, "I wanted to ask if you're free to have dinner with me."
Now that the rehearsal is over, Chisui is naturally free, but all she can think about is Luo Xinyue.
She bit her lip and said, "I'm free now, but I have plans with Xinyue..."
Ling Shen gets a headache just hearing the name Luo Xinyue now.
Not only do his brothers at home disapprove of his relationship with Qian Sui, but he also has to guard against Qian Sui being abducted by Zhang Shaochuan.
Even now, he's vying for Luo Xinyue's affections.
Ling Shen felt bitter.
Ling Shen gave a soft snort, ruthlessly shattering Qian Sui's expectations: "Don't even think about it. I just saw Luo Xinyue having dinner with someone else."
Chisui was stunned, somewhat incredulous.
That's exactly the effect Ling Shen wanted.
Ling Shen started the car and drove towards the small auditorium.
While driving, Ling Shen said to Qian Sui, "So don't bother thinking about having dinner with Luo Xinyue. If you want to eat, come downstairs later and I'll take you there."
Chisui didn't object, just said "Oh," and then said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
Upon hearing this, Ling Shen sensed something was amiss. Why was he in such a hurry to hang up?
Ling Shen retorted, "Why did you hang up?"
