As soon as Ahri left the underground parking lot, her phone rang.
It was Shen's father calling. He asked, "Did he see it?"
"No."
Ahri burst into tears; she felt so useless.
Hearing Ah Li crying on the other end, Shen's father said, "Then take a taxi back. Don't embarrass me in public."
After finishing his sentence, Mr. Shen hung up the phone.
Ahri stood by the roadside, wiping away tears with a tissue in her hand, her eyes red and swollen, waiting for a car.
Mo Yanqing stood on the top floor and looked down. Even though the cars below looked like matchboxes, he could still spot Shen Changli standing there waiting for a car at a glance.
Mo Yanqing disapproved of Shen's father openly displaying his schemes, but she became friends with Shen Changli.
Shen Changli is a strange girl. In front of outsiders, she pretends to be madly in love with him, but when no one is around, she really doesn't like to have anything to do with him.
When he was in school, he received several love letters from Shen Changli. When he opened them, there was only a blank piece of paper inside.
Mo Yanqing was so angry she almost laughed. What on earth was this person trying to do?
Later, at a class reunion, many people got Shen Changli drunk and made him take the person back.
As a result, after everyone left, Shen Changli grabbed him crying and said, "Mo Yanqing! Do you know how much I hate you? You are a chosen one, you are the future heir of the Mo family, so it's my right to revolve around you and chase after you!"
Shen Changli, an adopted daughter of the Shen family, owes much of the Shen family's current success to selling their daughters for personal gain.
Mo Yanqing knew that his parents also disapproved of the Shen family's behavior and had repeatedly told him not to get involved with Shen Changli.
That time, Shen Changli got drunk and said a lot. She hated her identity and hated her life that revolved around him.
Whether it's kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, high school, or university... no matter which school or class Mo Yanqing attends, Shen Changli will work hard to get closer to him, to become his deskmate, and to become his classmate.
This is because the Mo Group is the leading conglomerate in S City. Like a vast financial empire, it stands tall in the heart of this bustling metropolis, becoming the city's economic pillar and a symbol of wealth. Its influence is profound and widespread, not only nurturing the city's prosperity but also leading the development trends of numerous industries.
At that time, Mo Yanqing really disliked girls who cried and sobbed. He left her his phone number and said, "If your family asks you to come see me again in the future, just call me. I'll help you if I can."
However, Shen Changli rarely called him, and even when she did come to see him, she always pretended to be someone who was trying to pursue him.
This is because someone will hide in the shadows and secretly observe everything that happens between Shen Changli and him, and then report it to Shen's father.
He could only remain cold and indifferent, showing no kindness whatsoever.
Shen Changli understood that she would be shameless and persistent, like a fly that couldn't be driven away, following him closely.
When there were only two of them, she returned to normal.
Shen Changli would say back then, "Thank you, Mo."
Mo Yanqing only said, "Find a chance to leave that home. I get tired just looking at you like this."
However, what Mo Yanqing didn't know was that this was also how Shen's father had instructed the original owner to act.
Ah Li scrolled through her phone, even knowing that Mo Yanqing had left his phone number with the original owner, which Shen's father also knew.
Ah Li sighed. Mo Yanqing was a nice person, so she decided not to cause him any trouble.
The car arrived quickly, and Ahri got in and went home.
Back at the Shen family home, Ali gave the documents to Shen's father, including the exclusive elevator card.
Father Shen looked at Ali with great satisfaction and said, "When the time comes, find an opportunity and say that I want to introduce you to an old man in the real estate industry so that he can become your boyfriend."
Ah Li responded, "Okay."
Father Shen added, “If you mess it up, then you, the old man, will go and see him.”
Ah Li shrank her shoulders and secretly glanced at Shen's father. When she saw him suddenly looking over, she bit her lower lip and said, "I understand."
"Alright, go ahead."
Father Shen waved his hand, dismissing Ah Li.
After Ah Li left, her body trembled uncontrollably. The butler glanced at her and then went into the study.
Ahri went back to her room and locked it.
That's terrifying. What if she ends up with an old man?
Ah Li sat in the chair, thinking: An old man is fine, if I outlive him, I'll be a rich woman right away, and then... young and handsome men, cute little puppies, and fierce little wolves, just thinking about it is exciting.
In the beginning, the original owner's approach to Mo Yanqing was of her own free will, and her crying in front of Mo Yanqing was also an act.
The original owner coveted the Shen family's money, wealth, and connections; she wanted to find a rich husband through the Shen family.
She didn't want to go back to the orphanage, didn't want to live a poor life. She was used to the life of a rich young lady, and she couldn't bear to become a pitiful wretch again.
Ah Li raised her hand and touched her face. It's a good thing for a person to be able to bend and stretch when things happen.
In the Shen family, the original owner had her own art studio, and she loved painting.
The paintings are always brightly colored.
Ahri also painted a brightly colored garden, in which lived a beautiful little princess who met her prince.
Shen's father came in, looked at the painting Ah Li had drawn, and said, "Are you planning to post it on WeChat Moments?"
Ali put down her pen, sat up carefully, and said, "No, I just wanted to draw."
Father Shen picked up a paintbrush from the side and dipped it in paint.
The next second, he took the paintbrush and made a heavy stroke on the painting.
