“If you didn’t draw this, then where did it come from? If you can tell me, all this money is yours,” Chen Yunzhong said, placing several hundred-yuan bills in front of her.
They want to buy her information for just a few hundred dollars. Do they have some misunderstanding about the word "information"?
Sheng Qian picked up the money on the table and said, "I found it."
"you……"
Meng Sui suddenly stood up, propping himself up on the table, his eyes somewhat cold.
Chen Yunzhong pressed his arm and looked at Sheng Qian, saying, "You're lying."
"I did find it. I found it in the county town. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourselves. Anyway, I don't know who drew it." Sheng Qian counted the money in her hand, which was exactly six hundred yuan.
Meng Sui frowned. "What kind of answer is that?"
They even dared to take the teacher's money.
As expected, they had the wrong person. This woman was simply greedy and not a genius at all.
How could he have assumed it was drawn by Sheng Qian back then?
He's blind.
Meng Sui felt disgusted when he saw Sheng Qian counting money.
Chen Yunzhong didn't care about the few hundred yuan, nor was he angry about it. Instead, he gently suggested that Sheng Qian stay there for a few days.
Sheng Qian put the money in her pocket.
He said that as long as she could explain it, the money was hers, and wouldn't she be stupid not to take it?
"I have other things to do, so I won't bother you any longer. Thanks."
Sheng Qian patted her pocket and walked past them with a smile.
“Teacher…” Meng Sui looked at Chen Yunzhong.
Chen Yunzhong shook his head, staring at Sheng Qian as she swaggered away: "Let her go."
"Are you just going to give her a few hundred yuan for nothing?"
We haven't gotten anything out of them yet.
Chen Yunzhong said, "We haven't confirmed whether she has left the Long family. Whether what she says is true or false is secondary; getting involved with the Long family is a big problem."
Meng Sui suddenly remembered that Sheng Qian was backed by the Long family.
"Should we go to the capital to investigate?"
"The people have already arrived in Xuan City; we won't find anything by going to the capital."
“Teacher, I’ll go and keep an eye on her myself.” Although he no longer believed that it was Sheng Qian who drew it, he still felt something was off.
Chen Yunzhong also sensed something was amiss and immediately nodded, instructing Meng Sui to keep an eye on Sheng Qian.
As soon as Sheng Qian stepped out the door, she saw a wide road ahead with no cars in sight. Turning back, she saw Meng Sui coming out, so she went back inside.
Meng Sui was frowning as he looked at her.
"Since you brought me here, you should at least take me back."
Meng Sui also kept an eye on Sheng Qian, and with a cold face, he had someone drive over to take Sheng Qian away.
Upon arrival, Sheng Qian asked the car to stop, opened the door, and walked into the bustling market without looking back.
Meng Sui sat in the car, staring at Sheng Qian's back for a long time before letting the car drive away.
Sheng Qian entered the market and wandered around for a while.
We ate dinner out casually, and when we returned to the hostel, we saw a few people walking around outside the door.
Dai Jianwen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Sheng Qian.
"Miss Sheng."
Seeing their expressions, Sheng Qian smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I won't sell you out."
Dai Jianwen said apologetically, "We are worried about Miss Sheng."
"Have you had dinner?" Sheng Qian asked.
"We've already eaten," they all replied in unison.
Sheng Qian pointed upwards, "Let's go up first and talk about it later."
The group followed behind her, and the innkeepers cast disdainful glances their way over.
A beautiful girl followed by several men—it's impossible not to have some thoughts.
She's clearly not a respectable girl.
Not to mention this era, even in later generations, there would be no shortage of rumors and gossip.
In no time, the area around the inn was buzzing with gossip.
The person being spoken of was Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian stood in the corridor outside. The inn was not well-built and was not soundproof.
So Sheng Qian simply let them stand outside. These rooms were theirs anyway, so she didn't have to worry about anyone passing by and eavesdropping.
"What did you see when you went out today?" Sheng Qian asked Dai Jianwen.
Dai Jianwen recounted what he had seen, all of which were ordinary things that one could easily observe.
So there's nothing surprising about it.
They didn't encounter any trouble and had a peaceful day.
Sheng Qian said, "Since we can't find what we want in Xuan City, let's go directly to the county town tomorrow."
"I will follow Miss Sheng's arrangements."
They were originally working alongside Sheng Qian.
They did whatever Sheng Qian told them to do.
Therefore, no business opportunity was found.
Sheng Qian returned to her room, opened the small window, and saw a car parked not far away through the night.
It's obvious whose car it is without even having to guess.
She drew the curtains and slept soundly until dawn.
At daybreak, she left Xuan City with Dai Jianwen and the others, and Meng Sui followed them to the county town.
Upon arriving in the county town, Sheng Qian took them to find Ju Baifeng and bought a lot of things to thank him for his help last time.
Although I didn't use his connections, I still felt I had to thank him properly for his help.
"You slut, you seduced my man! Ugh, how shameless! I'll beat you to death, you whore!"
A figure lunged in front of Sheng Qian, and another woman, cursing, raised her fist and started hitting the person who had fallen.
The onlookers pointed and whispered about the woman on the ground.
"I didn't..." the woman on the ground whispered, her voice barely audible.
"Wow!!"
The child being held in someone's arms suddenly started crying.
Immediately afterward, another child ran over, crying with red, swollen eyes, and tried to tear at the woman's clothes, crying, "Don't hit my mom, you're a bad person..."
The little girl was weak, and as soon as they touched, the woman swung her hand and threw the little girl away.
The little girl was rushing towards Sheng Qian, who reached out and helped her up.
Upon closer inspection, it looked familiar.
