Ling Shen's car was parked on the side of the road, but now there was a traffic jam and the traffic was at a standstill.
Ling Shen glanced at Qian Sui, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said to the driver, "Wait for me up ahead, I have something to do."
As he spoke, he opened the car door and got out.
Qian Sui was sitting by the roadside, looking down at the puppy in her arms while wondering when Luo Xinyue would come.
Just then, a person's feet came into view.
Chisui paused, shifting her gaze from the puppy in her arms to the pair of feet that appeared in front of her.
Shiny leather shoes, neatly clean trouser cuffs, and above that, a pair of long, slender legs.
Does it look familiar?
When Qian Sui looked up again, she met Ling Shen's smiling eyes.
Ling Shen remained as languid as ever, taking everything in stride. He stood before Qian Sui, one hand in his pocket, a smile playing on his lips.
He looked at Qian Sui: "Little friend, what are you doing here?"
Chisui paused, her expression turning somber again. She looked at the puppy in her arms and said, "The dog is injured."
Qian Sui felt sorry for the little dog in her arms, but she didn't know that in Ling Shen's eyes, she looked like a wounded kitten.
Ling Shen noticed the puppy in her arms; it was dirty and covered in blood.
Ling Shen has never had any pity for the weak, because when he was weak, no one pitied him either.
Because of what he experienced in the past, he has some emotional barriers and a weak ability to empathize.
If he encountered this puppy alone, he wouldn't pay any attention to it.
But now, because of Qian Sui, Ling Shen has taken a liking to this little dog.
Because this is something that Qian Sui cares about, he did this for Qian Sui's sake.
Ling Shen squatted down to be at eye level with Qian Sui. He reached out and rubbed Qian Sui's head, comforting him, "Don't worry, I'll take you and it to the hospital, okay?"
Ling Shen said, but his gaze never fell on the puppy.
Yes, he wasn't worried about the puppy's life or death; he was only worried about Qian Sui's emotions.
Although Qian Sui had previously said she would keep her distance from Ling Shen, she couldn't care less about that now.
Once Ling Shen takes her to the hospital and gets the puppy treated, it's okay to keep our distance.
After all, my master said that things should be used for their purpose, and we should associate with people who can help us.
Ling Shen reached out to Qian Sui and pulled her up from the ground. He was about to take her to find the driver when Qian Sui stopped in her tracks.
"What's wrong?"
Ling Shen realized that Qian Sui was not moving, so he asked.
Qian Sui said, "I'm waiting for my friend. We'll go together when she arrives."
"friend?"
Ling Shen had previously heard Lu Jiayan say that Qian Sui had a very good relationship with the principal's daughter, Luo Xinyue, and that Luo Xinyue was probably the only one who would get together with him on weekends.
Ling Shen: "Then let's wait for her for a while."
Ling Shen had just finished speaking when he heard footsteps from the side.
Luo Xinyue was worried about Qian Sui, so she didn't even notice who was next to Qian Sui. She rushed over and looked at Qian Sui.
"Are you alright? I was so worried about you, I thought you'd been kidnapped! I told you, there are a lot of people here, and it's a lot of trouble, so don't wander off!"
Luo Xinyue was half accusing and half worried. She looked at Qian Sui and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was alright.
After Luo Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief, she noticed the person standing next to Qian Sui.
She glanced at it and was immediately stunned.
This person looks somewhat familiar.
Luo Xinyue took another look, and after confirming who was standing next to Qian Sui, her legs went weak.
Ling Shen?!
Luo Xinyue looked at Ling Shen with a surprised expression: "Ling... Senior Ling Shen?"
Ling Shen nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Qian Sui looked at Ling Shen, then at Luo Xinyue, and asked, "You two know each other?"
Luo Xinyue wailed inwardly, "I'm the one who should be asking this question!"
Luo Xinyue stood next to Qian Sui and said, "Senior Ling Shen is from our school."
The unspoken meaning of this statement is: apart from being students at the same school, I have absolutely no connection with him, and the further away we are from him, the better.
It wasn't that Luo Xinyue had any issues with Ling Shen, but she simply felt that Ling Shen was too oppressive. Being around him always gave her the feeling of walking on thin ice.
Luo Xinyue secretly tugged at Qian Sui's sleeve, as if she were about to drag Qian Sui away at any moment.
Ling Shen and Luo Xinyue didn't have much interaction, limited to her being the principal's daughter. But in the few times they met, Ling Shen could sense that Luo Xinyue was somewhat resistant to him.
Strictly speaking, most of the people around Ling Shen fall into two categories: those like Shang Anqi, who fawn over Ling Shen.
Another type is like Luo Xinyue, who has no conflicts of interest and doesn't think about currying favor with Ling Shen, so she can stay as far away from him as possible.
Ling Shen saw that Luo Xinyue wanted to run away with Qian Sui, so he looked at Qian Sui and said, "Since your friend is here too, let's go, otherwise the little dog won't be able to hold on."
Ling Shen used the puppy as the ending, knowing that Qian Sui would be worried about the puppy's condition and wouldn't think about leaving with Luo Xinyue.
As expected, after Ling Shen finished speaking, Qian Sui turned to look at Luo Xinyue with a worried expression and said, "Xinyue, we need to take the puppy to the hospital. Ling Shen said he has a car, so it will be faster to get to the hospital."
This is a dilemma.
Luo Xinyue glanced at the puppy in Qian Sui's arms, then cautiously glanced at Ling Shen out of the corner of her eye.
Ling Shen stood under the curb, still the same height as them.
Even though Ling Shen was smiling and politely inviting them, Luo Xinyue could still feel the immense pressure emanating from him.
Luo Xinyue lamented inwardly: The consequence of not checking the almanac before going out today is that I ran into Ling Shen!
Qian Sui didn't notice Luo Xinyue's predicament. The little dog in her arms whimpered again, sounding like it was in pain, and Qian Sui panicked immediately.
Seeing this, Luo Xinyue gave in.
Although rumors say Ling Shen is terrifying, Luo Xinyue has known him for so long and has never heard of him harming anyone who hasn't provoked him.
Luo Xinyue nodded and said to Ling Shen, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Ling Shen."
Ling Shen chuckled: "No trouble at all."
There was a traffic jam earlier, so Ling Shen told the driver to drive to the intersection ahead and wait. Qian Sui was holding the puppy, and Luo Xinyue was holding Qian Sui's arm. They walked on Qian Sui's left, and Ling Shen walked on Qian Sui's right. After walking a few dozen meters, they saw Ling Shen's driver.
Luo Xinyue was very perceptive. Since Ling Shen knew Qian Sui, Luo Xinyue sat in the passenger seat, while Qian Sui and Ling Shen sat in the back seat.
The driver was slightly surprised to see Ling Shen bring two girls with him.
He had been driving for Ling Shen for so many years, and let alone girls, not even a female creature had ever gotten into his car.
The driver couldn't help but take another look at Qian Sui and Luo Xinyue.
The driver snapped out of his daze and asked, "Mr. Ling, where are we going?"
Ling Shen said, "Go to the hospital."
