Chapter 221 Money Isn't Everything



Qiansui's phone dinged.

The phone screen lit up. The car was already dimly lit, and when the phone lit up, Chisui subconsciously looked down at it.

Normally, when Ling Shen is talking to Qian Sui, Qian Sui will definitely reply to Ling Shen first before looking at her phone.

But now, when Qian Sui hears Ling Shen mention Shang Ziyan's name, she doesn't really want to pay attention to him anymore.

So Qian Sui chose to ignore Ling Shen's words and looked down at her phone.

Chitose opened WeChat and saw that it was a message from the boy she had just added on WeChat.

He asked, "Have you gone home yet?"

Qian Sui pursed her lips and replied to the boy herself, "Just about to go back, still on my way."

The boy sent an "Mmm" emoji, then asked, "My name is Li Shu, what's your name?"

Chitose sent his name over.

Ling Shen had good eyesight, and because he was paying attention to the matter, he saw all of Qian Sui's conversation with the boy Ang.

Ling Shen was immediately consumed by jealousy.

Ling Shen snorted and then said, "Don't add just anyone in the future. Some people are just trying to scam you out of money."

Qian Sui didn't even look up before replying, "It's okay, my brother is rich."

Ling Shen: "......"

Ling Shen was speechless at these words.

Ling Shen gritted his teeth and said, "Even if you have a lot of money, you can't let yourself be cheated."

Since Qian Sui didn't reply, Ling Shen felt like he had suffered a loss in silence.

Ling Shen added, "There are a lot of bad people on the internet, so you have to be careful."

Chisui hummed in agreement and replied, "It's alright, my brother will protect me."

Ling Shen: "......"

Ling Shen felt somewhat aggrieved after being killed twice in a row.

Ling Shen felt that no matter what he said, Qian Sui's reply would still be the same, so this time Ling Shen didn't beat around the bush and just said it directly.

"This person clearly has ulterior motives towards you. You should delete him."

Just as Ling Shen finished speaking, Qian Sui finished replying to the boy's message.

Qian Sui put down her phone, turned to look at Ling Shen, her expression indifferent, revealing little emotion.

Before Qian Sui could even speak, Ling Shen sensed something was amiss.

Sure enough, the next second, Chitose spoke.

Chitose said, "I want to make friends too."

Ling Shen didn't speak.

Qian Sui chuckled softly, then looked at Ling Shen and said, "I make my friends, and you can make yours. It doesn't prevent us from still being friends."

Although Qian Sui didn't mention Shang Ziyan's name, Ling Shen really felt that Qian Sui was hinting at something about Shang Ziyan.

Ling Shen felt a tightness in his chest.

He wanted to explain to Chitose, but he knew he couldn't tell her yet.

......

The atmosphere along the way was rather strange. Ling Shen escorted Qian Sui to her doorstep.

After getting out of the car, Qian Sui politely nodded and bowed to Ling Shen, saying, "Thank you for taking me home."

Ling Shen: "......"

Despite the sweltering heat, Ling Shen felt a chill run down his spine.

After saying that, Qian Sui turned and left.

At the entrance, the Qianci family's butler, still sporting a professional smile, looked at Ling Shen.

Ling Shen watched as Qian Sui entered the house, then looked away. He suddenly met the butler's gaze, and Ling Shen felt somewhat embarrassed.

The butler, being an experienced man with his age and life experience, immediately noticed the odd behavior between Qian Sui and Ling Shen and asked directly.

"Is Miss angry?"

Ling Shen: "......"

He was reluctant to admit it, but he knew he couldn't hide it from the old butler.

Ling Shen didn't answer, so the butler took it as a tacit agreement.

The butler smiled and continued, "Young people have their disagreements, that's normal. If a girl is angry, just coax her a little and she'll be fine."

The butler's words did make sense, but Ling Shen wanted to coax him, but Qian Sui wouldn't give him the chance.

Seeing that Ling Shen didn't react, the butler continued, "So, Mr. Ling, you've already coaxed Miss Qian Sui, but she's still angry, is that right?"

Ling Shen: "......"

Ling Shen was utterly speechless. This old man not only hit the nail on the head, but also rubbed salt into his wound.

The old butler noticed that Ling Shen's expression was a little off and continued to ask, "Actually, girls all like gifts. If you can't coax them, just give them a gift."

Ling Shen: "......"

Ling Shen gritted his teeth. Couldn't this old bastard shut up?

The old butler noticed the change in Ling Shen's expression and looked incredulous: "Could it be that even after you've spent money to coax Miss Qian Sui, she's still the same?"

Ling Shen maintained his smile and said to the butler, "Yes, what's wrong?"

The butler clicked his tongue twice and said, "Nothing much, it's just that you've taught me that money isn't everything."

Ling Shen: "..."

Ling Shen felt incredibly frustrated today; taking Shang Ziyan shopping for clothes had already been a nightmare for him.

He was neglected by Chitose, who then introduced other boys to him.

In the end, he was humiliated by Qianci's steward.

A little voice inside Ling Shen screamed: I've never been wronged like this in my entire life!

......

Chitose returned home, but she was still not in a good mood.

The eldest brother, Qianci, was in the living room talking to the nanny when he saw Qiansui pass by. He originally just wanted to take a look and say hello to Qiansui.

But when Qianci turned her head to look, she was stunned.

It wasn't that I found it strange, but rather that it was a pleasant surprise.
