Ling Shen had promised Qian Sui that he would tell her his birth date and time if she helped him through this ordeal. Now that the matter was resolved, he should keep his promise.
He looked at Qian Sui, who was only up to her shoulder, and said, "Should I tell you my birth date and time?"
Qian Sui looked up at him and nodded obediently.
Ling Shen smiled, but instead of answering her, he turned to Lu Jiayan and asked, "Are there any good dessert shops around here?"
Lu Jiayan's mind raced, and he answered, "Yes."
"Then let's pack a few portions and eat them at home."
"Yes, Mr. Ling." He had barely finished speaking when he quickly realized, "Huh? What's going on?"
He turned to look at Qian Sui beside him, then at the expression on his own little Ling Zong's face, confirming his suspicions.
It seems that Xiao Ling, the boss of his family, is planning to take the kitten home.
Even after getting into the car, Chitose hadn't quite grasped what was happening before asking, "Where are we going?"
Ling Shen only said one sentence: "Go home."
Chisui then realized something was wrong: "You don't know where my home is...?"
Then she realized what she meant and asked, "What would I do at your house?"
Ling Shen continued to deceive him: "Didn't you say that the Seven Killings chart is very important? Then how can I just casually talk about my birth chart outside? You agree, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Sui thought it made sense, so he sat quietly in his seat and stopped talking.
Ling Shen looked at Qian Sui and thought to himself: This child is too naive; he was easily fooled.
Looking at Ling Shen and Qian Sui in the rearview mirror, Lu Jiayan thought to himself: "My little Ling is too naive. She was fooled by her so easily. The girl isn't naive; she's capable of taking down a strong man with a single punch even in dangerous situations."
Ling Shen's house is on the top floor of a building in the city center. The building belongs to him, and he has reserved the top floor as his residence.
It's said that the city center is too noisy to live in and more suitable for commercial areas, but it is located on the top of a multi-story building, offering a bird's-eye view of the entire city. The noise of the city center is isolated at the bottom, and the prosperity of the city is fully visible from its bottom floor.
It is said that true hermits live in the city, and Ling Shen's residence is simply a paradise.
It was precisely for this reason that Ling Shen had almost never brought anyone back. It could be said that Qian Sui was the first girl he had brought here.
The private elevator went up, and the view gradually broadened. Although the Qian family was wealthy, Qian Sui had lived in the mountains for a long time and rarely saw such high-rise buildings. Now, seeing this scene, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Looking at Qian Sui peering out through the glass, Ling Shen inexplicably felt that building this house was quite worthwhile.
Ling Shen's house is decorated in a low-key yet luxurious style, using only black, white, and gray tones. It looks neat but inevitably feels a bit cold.
The house has a large terrace, a garden, and a private swimming pool. Chitose didn't run around looking around. After curiously observing for a while, she quietly sat on the sofa.
She sat upright, somewhat restrained, while Ling Shen next to her leaned casually against the back of the sofa, looking lazy and wild.
Lu Jiayan opened the dessert he had just bought and presented it to Qian Sui. Qian Sui thanked him, took a bite, and her eyes lit up instantly.
Ling Shen could tell from the expression that this dessert shop was indeed quite good.
While Qian Sui was eating, Ling Shen asked, "What does your family do?"
Qian Sui thought for a moment. She didn't really know what her eldest brother did, and besides her eldest brother, she also had another brother. To this, she answered honestly, "He does everything, sells a lot of things, and then makes money."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jiayan assumed that the girl's family might own a general store.
"How old are you this year?"
"18"
Ling Shen gave a meaningful "oh," a smile playing on his lips: "You're an adult now."
Lu Jiayan's lips twitched. Was his little Ling CEO about to commit a crime?
He had just seen it too. Qian Sui was no pushover. Although his little Ling had won her heart with desserts, if Ling really wanted to do something to her, this girl would probably take action.
President Ling is also quite skilled. Before officially taking over the Ling Group, he had participated in underground boxing matches and had even defeated professional boxers.
Thinking about it this way, if Qian Sui and his boss Ling were to fight, he probably wouldn't be able to stop them... Maybe he should run away first if things get bad?
But as it turned out, Lu Jiayan was overthinking things. Ling Shen asked her some more questions about her family, probably to probe her background. After he had asked enough, Ling Shen raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you want with my birth chart?"
Although she had said from the beginning that she wouldn't use his birth chart for anything strange, he was still very curious about what he would actually do with it.
Of course, as an atheist, Ling Shen did not believe that she could cause him any harm by taking his birth chart. If that were the case, what would be the point of all his efforts to expand his business empire over the years? He might as well learn metaphysics and then take the birth chart of any rising business tycoon.
What he was curious about wasn't what he could do with his birth chart, but what the Emperor would do with it.
Having spent so much time with her master, Qian Sui's mind was filled with various Confucian and Buddhist ideas. What she liked most, however, was the saying "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed," because little Qian Sui thought it was a very cool phrase.
She thought for a moment, then said very seriously, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
Ling Shen chuckled and lazily stretched, preparing to get up. Qian Sui panicked when she saw this; he wasn't planning to say anything.
