If Zhang Shaochuan were to tell Qian Sui about his relationship with Ling Shen, he really wouldn't know where to begin.
After pondering for a long time, he finally spoke: "Ling Shen is a freak. Before the age of ten, he was a prodigy. His parents were both very famous people in various fields. But when he was ten, he witnessed the tragic death of his parents. It is said that he was traumatized and became withdrawn. For the next eight years, he was never seen in the public eye. Everyone thought he had disappeared."
Qian Sui listened attentively, the image of Ling Shen appearing in her mind. He smiled so leisurely and casually now, it was impossible to see the image Zhang Shaochuan was describing.
Zhang Shaochuan continued, "But when he was eighteen, Ling Shen came back and forcibly took back the Ling family from others. He spent more than half a month establishing himself in this school and set many records that no one has broken since. I admit that Ling Shen is indeed very outstanding in some aspects."
This was the first time Qian Sui had heard news of Ling Shen.
She knew his destiny beforehand; it was a Seven Killings destiny, which inherently possessed the demeanor of a king.
She had never known what made him so remarkable, and when she heard Zhang Shaochuan say this, although she was somewhat surprised, she still silently thought to herself, "That's how it should be."
He was meant to be this good.
After all, he is a person with the Seven Killings destiny.
After praising Ling Shen, Zhang Shaochuan started to criticize him. He slapped his thigh and said, "Actually, it's just that Ling Shen, that freak, doesn't dare to face me head-on. He's been avoiding me and doesn't dare to compete with me. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel so frustrated."
Hearing this, Qian Sui finally understood the relationship between Zhang Shaochuan and Ling Shen.
After she stayed on the mountain with her master, every year someone would come up the mountain to challenge her master, saying that they were stronger than her master.
But he was always refused entry to the mountain gate by his master and never even saw his face.
Later I heard that the man kept shouting outside that his master was afraid of him and didn't dare to fight him, and kept using his master's name to swindle and deceive people.
Zhang Shaochuan was still muttering to himself when Qian Sui stood up and patted him on the shoulder.
Seeing that Qian Sui was about to leave, Zhang Shaochuan also stood up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Chisui stretched and said, "Let's go back and rest. I'm sleepy. Do you want to come back to the girls' dormitory with me?"
Zhang Shaochuan paused in his steps.
Since Qian Sui is going back to the girls' dormitory, Lu Jiayan can't go, and Zhang Shaochuan doesn't need to go with her either.
He sat back down in his original seat.
Qian Sui took two steps forward, then suddenly remembered something. She turned back and said, "Could you borrow those cookbooks for me? I want to look at them when I'm hungry."
Zhang Shaochuan: "......"
Watching Chisui's departing figure, he couldn't help but mutter, "She really is a country bumpkin. All she loves is looking at recipes. She has no culture at all."
Chitose did not head towards the girls' dormitory after leaving the library.
The cocktail party is tonight, and Luo Xinyue has already gone home to prepare.
Since Luo Xinyue wasn't in the dormitory, Qian Sui didn't really want to go.
But Chitose was indeed a little tired and needed a place to rest.
She stood at the library entrance for a moment, then suddenly remembered the key and address that Lu Jiayan had given her before.
That was Ling Shen's secret base.
Lu Jiayan had told her that if she had nowhere else to go, she could go there.
Although Ling Shen blocked her.
But there shouldn't be any problem with him going to his secret base to rest.
After much hesitation, Qian Sui still headed towards Ling Shen's secret base.
Ling Shen always chose very secluded locations, such as the rooftop of a building, where you had to walk up a small staircase after taking the elevator.
Qian Sui arrived at the door and opened it with the key Lu Jiayan had given her.
As soon as you push open the door, all you see is black, white, and gray tones, which look neat yet cold.
It looks exactly like the house where someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder lives.
Qian Sui walked a few steps inside, and there was a large classroom that Ling Shen had turned into his secret base. It was filled with various pieces of furniture and some of Ling Shen's belongings.
The black bookshelf was filled with books, including foreign classics and some domestic books.
Chisui walked over and stood in front of the bookshelf for a while.
Qian Sui has read many books, but there are quite a few books here that Ling Shen has never read before.
Chitose, out of curiosity, picked up a book and casually flipped through it.
There was also a piano in the corner, covered with black velvet.
Qian Sui then remembered that Luo Xinyue had mentioned that Ling Shen's mother was a very skilled pianist, so Ling Shen inherited his mother's talent and had been playing the piano very well since he was a very young age.
As Qian Sui looked at the piano, she suddenly wondered what it must have been like when Ling Shen sat here playing the piano.
Because the piano was placed near the window where the sunlight was excellent, Chitose went over, sat on the piano bench, and flipped through the book in her hands.
After reading a few pages, Chisui closed the book again. She lifted the velvet cloth covering the piano, opened the covers on the piano keys, and then played a note with her fingers.
The emperor had grown tired of listening to Shusu play the guzheng and xiao every day on the mountain, so seeing a new instrument naturally brought him a sense of novelty.
Chitose put the book in her hand aside and began to explore the piano keys.
Chitose had never studied piano, so what she played at first was completely melody-less.
She simply pressed each and every key.
However, Chitose had a good ear for music, and her teacher had taught her some music theory before. So after she figured out the pitch of each note on the piano, the music that Chitose played gradually became melodic.
Qian Sui doesn't have any other special skills, but she can do well in anything she's been exposed to since childhood, as long as it interests her.
Although she figured out the tricks, Chisui was still a novice and got tired of playing it after a short time.
Although there are many strange things here, Chitose always feels sleepy in the afternoons during the summer.
She sprawled on the sofa reading a book. It was quiet there, and before long her eyelids grew heavier and heavier.
She took out her phone and glanced at the time. It was 3:30 PM. She could sleep for a little over an hour and then go home.
After checking the time, she subconsciously clicked into her chat history with Ling Shen.
The red exclamation mark above is very eye-catching.
Chisui pouted, acting a bit like a child.
That was too much, so I just blocked her.
Chisui looked around and suddenly felt a little vengeful, thinking that when she left, she would take everything with her.
When Ling Shen returned and saw that the place had been emptied, he felt a sense of relief.
With this thought in mind, Chitose felt much happier and fell asleep on the sofa in a cheerful mood, the book in her hand still covering her stomach.
But what she didn't know was that while she was asleep, someone entered this secret base...
