"Aren't we going to Wangyue Tower? Why don't you leave?" Xiao Qingyi looked at Shen Qingwu who had stopped in confusion.
"Qingqing, this Shen Qingwu is just trying to take advantage of you. The food at Wangyue Tower is so expensive that the Shen family can't afford it. Besides, I heard that Shen Qingwu has a big appetite."
Seeing them stop, the girl behind them, who was unwilling to go home today, spoke again.
Shen Qingwu glanced at Xiao Qingyi with a complicated expression, then turned back to glare at the person who refused to give up, and said mercilessly:
"Yes, yes, my Shen family is poor and can't afford the food at Wangyue Tower. I just want Xiao Qingyi to pay for me. You are noble, and you don't intend to trick people into going to the jewelry store to pay for you."
Young girls are thin-skinned after all, and they felt very embarrassed when their hidden plots were exposed in front of them.
“Stop arguing, I’m inviting Miss Shen to dinner today to make amends, and there are so many people watching.”
"If there is really a problem with the Shen family in the future, the emperor will know what happened today, and with the testimony of all the sisters and the people, I believe he will not implicate my Xiao family."
Xiao Qingyi's young face was full of seriousness, and she bowed in the direction of the palace in a formal manner.
Everyone was silent.
"Okay, you guys go back first today. We'll come out and play together again when we have time." Xiao Qingyi smiled harmlessly at the little sisters.
Several little girls also wanted to go to Wangyue Tower to eat.
But since Shen Qingwu was there, they really didn't dare to speak and could only leave angrily.
"Let's go to Wangyue Tower." Xiao Qingyi turned around and said to Shen Qingwu innocently.
Shen Qingwu's eyes swept across a private restaurant next to her. At the half-open window on the second floor, Chu Guannan was sitting in front of the window, gently waving a folding fan and raising his eyebrows at her.
"Okay." Shen Qingwu retracted his gaze and looked at Xiao Qingyi with a smile.
Just now, what she saw in Xiao Qingyi's memories was:
More than 80% of the Xiao family's assets are now in the hands of fourteen-year-old Xiao Qingyi, rather than her brothers who seem smart and capable.
The seemingly delicate and gullible little white rabbit is actually the real person in charge of the Xiao family. Xiao Chen has already given half of the power to her.
No matter how much the Xiao family dotes on their daughter, they will definitely not destroy the family foundation that has lasted for hundreds of years. There is only one answer.
…
Moon-Watching Tower.
"This is my family's property. I heard from the waiter before that you have a big appetite."
Xiao Qingyi took Shen Qingwu to her exclusive box.
"Recently, Wangyuelou has introduced several new dishes. Please order more of the ones you liked last time."
Xiao Qingyi was very enthusiastic. She pulled Shen Qingwu to sit down, had someone serve wine, and then placed the menu in front of Shen Qingwu.
"These sample pictures of the dishes were all drawn by my third brother. He's good at drawing. Do they look exactly like the real thing?"
Her expression was full of pride, she showed off without any concealment, and her eyes were full of expectation, telling you to praise your brother quickly.
"If there was only this piece of paper on the table, I would think that a dish had already been served." Shen Qingwu nodded in agreement, his face full of sincerity.
His hands were not idle either. He picked up the feather pen and ticked off the ones he thought were delicious last time.
"How come you have such a big appetite? I've never heard of you like that before."
While waiting for the food to be served, Xiao Qingyi sat next to Shen Qingwu and looked at her curiously.
He also poured her a glass of wine and asked, "How much can you drink?"
"I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk." Shen Qingwu thanked him with a smile.
"Are you really Shen Qingwu?" Xiao Qingyi moved closer with her big eyes.
Shen Qingwu raised his glass to her and asked, "What do you think?"
"I've seen you on the street before. You were wearing gaudy clothes and heavy makeup, which made people unable to look at you. Others bullied you, but you just laughed foolishly." Xiao Qingyi couldn't help but close her eyes when she thought of that scene.
Shen Qingwu laughed and shook his head.
Xiao Qingyi continued seriously, "But now you can not only talk others speechless, but also beat them so hard that they can't fight back, and you don't get punished at all. You're really amazing."
She looked at Shen Qingwu with admiration, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Are you really not afraid of becoming the target of public criticism, causing public outrage and bringing disaster to the family?"
"Before, when everyone ganged up on me, no one asked anything. Now I'm just bullying them back on equal terms. Why should they ask? You can't turn against them just because they can't take a beating like me, right?"
Shen Qingwu poured himself a glass of wine, looking relieved as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Xiao Qingyi burst out laughing and quickly took a sip of wine to suppress it.
"But your worries are justified. Some people have already said that my father is collaborating with the enemy and committing treason." Shen Qingwu smiled indifferently.
When he turned his head to look at Xiao Qingyi, his expression suddenly became serious, "By the way, if I didn't do this, would the Shen family be fine?"
Xiao Qingyi felt burned by her deep eyes and quickly looked away.
He lowered his head and drank to make up for his previous evasion, shook his head slightly, and whispered, "I don't know either."
She took a sip of wine gracefully, looked up at Shen Qingwu, and asked her, "You just said Song Siwei is not worthy of me, what do you mean?"
"Do you think he deserves it?" Shen Qingwu asked with a smile.
Xiao Qingyi nodded vigorously, with a gleam in her eyes, "Of course, he is the eldest son, and I am just a business girl."
"In terms of identity, he was indeed born into a good family, but what about him as a person?" Shen Qingwu asked.
She was really puzzled. It seemed that Xiao Qingyi really fell in love with Song Siwei.
But what did she see in him?
Is it reckless or stupid to fall for Song Siwei?
Xiao Qingyi tilted her head and looked at Shen Qingwu for a long while before speaking, "I still think you are not Shen Qingwu. How could Shen Qingwu ask such a profound question?"
