"Sorry, maybe I haven't been sleeping well lately." Qin Xiangyi's act continued, and Xia Shang smiled slightly, indicating she didn't mind. After a few pleasantries, Xia Shang quickly escorted Qin Xiangyi towards the door.

But Qin Xiangyi's question remained unanswered, and she asked again, "Professor Xia, how did you know that person was a bad guy just now?"

"You mean Qianmian? It likes to follow me around. This time it just followed me to Ocean City," Xia Shang replied, clearing Qin Xiangyi's doubts. However, this response, coupled with the monster's destructive nature, was bound to send shivers down anyone's spine.

"Then... do many wanted criminals follow you?"

"About that. My profession has a pretty high chance of being remembered. Maybe they all think that if they kill me, they can become famous in this circle." Xia Shang was still smiling, but her expression clearly held many unspoken complexities.

Just as Qin Xiangyi was about to ask more, she realized they had reached the first floor. Xia Shang stood there, "Alright, I'll see you off here. Be careful on your way back." Xia Shang began to act like a caring elder, but Qin Xiangyi couldn't feel happy at all, forcing a smile.

"Okay, Professor Xia, thank you for chatting with me." With that, Qin Xiangyi politely bid farewell to Xia Shang and left Ocean Hotel...

Xia Shang watched Qin Xiangyi leave. Not long after, two men in black suits appeared. Upon seeing Xia Shang, they respectfully called out, "Miss."

"Miss, we are truly sorry that you encountered danger."

"It's fine. If I hadn't been alone, he really wouldn't have dared to show himself..." Xia Shang smiled faintly and handed the gold card she had just received to one of the men in suits, saying, "Inform the boss that I want this card canceled."

The man in the suit agreed immediately without any questions, as if Xia Shang had registered the gold card solely to lure Qianmian out. Once used, she would have no further connection to the establishment.

"Miss, is there anything else you need?" Seeing that Xia Shang didn't seem to be letting them go after discussing this matter, the man in the suit asked again.

Xia Shang nodded, her gaze returning to the direction Qin Xiangyi had left. She then said, "Go and meticulously sort through Qin Xiangyi's information again. There must be something about her that hasn't been uncovered yet."

The man in the suit nodded again and quickly left after receiving Xia Shang's confirmation. Xia Shang, however, remained standing there. She opened the box where she had placed the card and with a slight touch, the box emitted a faint glow. It turned out the box was also a voice recorder, capturing the conversation she just had with Qin Xiangyi.

Listening to the recording, a faint smile appeared on Xia Shang's lips. She muttered to herself as if in contemplation.

"It's been so long since I've encountered such an interesting opponent. Even hypnosis was ineffective. I really want to see how much more you're hiding." After her musings, Xia Shang finally turned with the voice recorder and headed upstairs.

The more collections and monthly votes, the faster the updates will be~

Chapter 71 [1] Someone's targeting me?

Xia Shang continued on her way until she arrived at the Qin family's banquet again and met Sister Zhang.

"Professor Xia, where did you go just now? I was looking for you everywhere." Sister Zhang looked at Xia Shang with a helpless expression, wanting to pull her to introduce her to others, but then remembered Xia Shang's condition of not being able to be touched.

"I felt a bit stuffy inside just now, so I went out for some fresh air," Xia Shang replied politely, maintaining a friendly attitude towards Sister Zhang.

"I'm truly sorry. I invited you here, but I didn't get to show you the person you wanted to see." Sister Zhang apologized, but Xia Shang smiled even more brightly, continuing to say politely, "No, I saw many interesting things. It suddenly made me feel that Ocean City is really wonderful."

Sister Zhang's confusion grew, but Xia Shang had no intention of explaining. Her gaze drifted towards the sky. The party was still ongoing, but the hearts of those present had drifted elsewhere. Sister Zhang also thought of Qin Xiangyi, but she was thinking of the beautiful Qin Xiangyi.

She wondered if Qin Xiangyi would call her, what they would talk about if she did, where they should arrange to meet next, or what might happen on such a night.

Lost in thought, Sister Zhang couldn't help but look up at the sky, though their reasons for looking at the sky were entirely different...

Meanwhile, Qin Xiangyi had returned home. Although she wanted to stay out longer, this wasn't a game with no time limit; it was real life.

Most importantly, Jing Shuxuan would likely be back soon. Qin Xiangyi felt a bit uneasy. Although her relationship with Jing Shuxuan wasn't as close as one might imagine, out of politeness and good manners, Qin Xiangyi, who was living under someone else's roof, felt it was better to be well-behaved.

Upon returning home, Qin Xiangyi began to clean, striving to show her diligence when Jing Shuxuan returned.

Hua Nu chuckled from the side, thinking Qin Xiangyi was too timid.

Hua Nu: Flower Master, humans are usually afraid of us. It's a bit embarrassing for you to be afraid of humans like this.

Qin Xiangyi glanced at her, thinking that since no one else was home, she spoke, "What do you know? This isn't fear; it's respect."

Hua Nu appeared very confused, unable to comprehend what this abstract concept of human respect meant. Qin Xiangyi wanted to explain this vague concept, but when she turned around, she realized it was already past 12 o'clock.

Normal gatherings usually ended around ten or eleven o'clock, rarely past midnight. Qin Xiangyi began to worry about Jing Shuxuan's safety. Her thoughts raced, and finally, she couldn't help but call Jing Shuxuan.

The call was finally answered on the third try, and the person who answered wasn't Jing Shuxuan herself. The voice was somewhat familiar, and Qin Xiangyi paused before recognizing it as Sister Zhang's.

Qin Xiangyi gathered her emotions and then asked cautiously, "Auntie, is Sister Xuan here?"

Sister Zhang's voice was a bit low, and the surrounding noise was chaotic, with faint sounds of singing audible. It was clear that after dinner, some people would go to karaoke for entertainment. As some of the few beautiful women present, Sister Zhang and Jing Shuxuan, being from the collateral branches, had no choice but to follow along.

Whether Sister Zhang was doing so willingly or unwillingly was not within Qin Xiangyi's scope of consideration.

"Auntie?"

"Xuanxuan and I are at KTV, but Xuanxuan is drunk, and I can't get away to take her home." Sister Zhang continued to describe her current situation. The noise grew louder, and if Qin Xiangyi didn't have excellent hearing, she wouldn't have been able to understand what Sister Zhang was saying at all.

"Then Auntie, I'll go pick up Sister Xuan." Qin Xiangyi said helplessly, raising her voice to convey her intention to Sister Zhang.

"What... I can't hear you?" Sister Zhang was almost shouting, but her voice was still completely drowned out by the deafening music around them. After shouting a few times and realizing it wasn't getting through, Qin Xiangyi simply hung up the phone and sent Sister Zhang a text message.

Message: I'm coming to take Sister Xuan home. What's your current address?

Sister Zhang provided the address without hesitation, either because she too readily believed Qin Xiangyi had the capability, or because the situation at hand genuinely prevented her from leaving.

Qin Xiangyi found it a bit unexpected, but she figured that since Jing Shuxuan was ultimately Sister Zhang's future daughter-in-law, she wouldn't let Jing Shuxuan get into too much trouble.

Message: Okay, I'm on my way.

After receiving the necessary information, Qin Xiangyi went out again. Hua Nu and Shaoyao were still watching TV, looking completely unwilling to move.

"You two go into the Flower God Ring and read or rest for a while." Although Qin Xiangyi wanted to leave Hua Nu and Shaoyao at home, unfortunately, at this stage, the Flower God Ring didn't allow the flower people to act freely.

Qin Xiangyi had no true freedom, and the flower people were also completely bound and tied to Qin Xiangyi. Seeing that they seemed very interested in the TV program, Qin Xiangyi softened her tone.

Even if they were just tools, they seemed to have emotions as tools.

Hua Nu thought about it and agreed, quickly returning to the Flower God Ring. As for Shaoyao, she seemed to find it more interesting outside and stayed out, continuing with Qin Xiangyi.

Xiangyi took out the skateboard from the Flower God Ring and started the car's navigation. She put on her hat and began to speed through the city.

The KTV wasn't far, and since Xiangyi occasionally used the skateboard to cheat and fly short distances, she saved a lot of time. In less than ten minutes, she arrived at the KTV.

The surrounding noise was deafening. Xiangyi disliked clamor, and the cacophony of music made her uncomfortable. Shaoyao was even more bothered, and in the end, she told Xiangyi that she needed to go back.

Xiangyi didn't stop her. Even without the Flower People present, Xiangyi was capable of self-defense and felt no fear in this ordinary beginner village, Ocean City.

She walked a few more steps, and a yawning waiter approached. Xiangyi explained that she was looking for someone and was quickly led to room 419.

It was a number full of innuendo. Xiangyi paused as she looked at the doorplate, and through the glass, she saw faint figures inside.

Shuxuan sat there with her eyes closed, looking very uncomfortable. Zhang Mou stood guard beside her. Although there was a smile in her eyes, she was clearly on alert for anyone trying to harm Shuxuan.

From this information alone, Xiangyi could see how protective Zhang Mou was. Being considered one of her own by such a woman would be nothing but beneficial, as they would be absolutely loyal.

Unfortunately, Xiangyi hadn't had a good start with Zhang Mou, and their destinies were set to be antagonistic. It was destined that Zhang Mou would only be a tool.

The more collections and monthly tickets, the faster the updates~

Chapter 72 [2] XX, It's So Wonderful!

Xiangyi didn't go in. She stood at the door and sent Zhang Mou a message first, informing her that she had arrived. Seeing that Zhang Mou hadn't reacted, Xiangyi called her.

But it was so noisy inside that even with Zhang Mou's music turned up, she couldn't hear anything. In the end, Xiangyi had no choice but to open the door and go in.

The adults from the Qin Family looked at Xiangyi with confusion as she entered, some even whistling at her flirtatiously, as if they thought she was a special service staff. Not only that, but she also saw the uncle with the broken hand, who was staring resentfully at where Zhang Mou was and continuously drinking.

Looking further, Xiangyi discovered the Qin Family's twin siblings, Qin An and Qin Ren. The younger ones seemed reserved, as if they had been forced to experience all of this.

Of course, the twins didn't recognize Xiangyi in her current state. Instead, an ordinary girl approached her, acting friendly towards Xiangyi.

Xiangyi had no recollection of this ordinary girl, and beneath the friendliness was a chilling coldness, as if she looked down on Xiangyi.

The abandoned daughter of the Qin Family, truly lives up to her reputation.

Xiangyi sighed inwardly, then perfunctorily dealt with the girl and quickly walked over to Shuxuan and Zhang Mou.

Up close, Shuxuan's condition was even worse. Xiangyi frowned slightly but still politely greeted Zhang Mou.

"Auntie."

"Can you take her away by yourself?" Zhang Mou didn't waste any more words, worried that Xiangyi couldn't take the drunken Shuxuan home alone.

Xiangyi didn't reply. She reached out and pulled Shuxuan up. Even though most of Shuxuan's weight was on Xiangyi, Xiangyi still appeared at ease. Zhang Mou seemed to remember that Xiangyi had awakened as a Chosen One. She pursed her lips and finally said nothing, making a waving gesture.

Xiangyi didn't stand on ceremony. She wanted to leave, but then she saw the gaze of the uncle whose hand she had broken. His eyes seemed somewhat hollow, but his focus was still on Zhang Mou, as if he planned to carry out some scheme that night.

"It seems that breaking one hand wasn't enough." Xiangyi couldn't help but sigh. Even though the noisy sounds drowned out her words, the twin siblings seemed to have noticed.

Xiangyi no longer understood what kind of characters these twins were. Thinking that she had been noticed, she slowly left the room.

As she closed the door from the outside, the noise inside lessened considerably. Xiangyi supported Shuxuan and continued forward, feeling movement behind her.

Shaoyao: Flower Master, those twins are following us again.

Xiangyi hummed, having already noticed, but she pretended not to and continued pulling the two forward, reaching the elevator.

She went down the stairs, and the twin siblings followed, flanking her on either side.

"Are you trying to pick a fight?" Xiangyi glanced at them and couldn't help but ask.

"Why?"

The twins spoke simultaneously, unable to understand Xiangyi's sudden question.

Xiangyi explained, "Don't you know I'm Xiangyi, and I'm here to avenge Prince Qin?"

The twins exchanged glances and then burst into laughter.

"Prince Qin isn't worth our effort."

"Yeah, I just saw that you and this sister looked like you were having a hard time, so I came out to help."

The twins explained their reason for coming out, but Xiangyi didn't believe them at all.

In her understanding, there were no good people in the Qin Family. Of course, even if there were, they had died young like the original Xiangyi.

"You don't believe me?"

"You seem to know who I am and saw me pulling Sister Xuan. You don't look like you're here to help." Xiangyi shook her head, feeling that the siblings were cunning.

The twins exchanged glances and then smiled brightly at Xiangyi, saying, "We actually want to be friends with you."

Xiangyi found it even more baffling, but remembering that Huangquan had said these siblings could predict the future, she became even more vigilant.

"Sorry, I don't make friends with people surnamed Qin."

"But you can't deny that you carry the blood of the Qin Family."

"Sister is right!"

The siblings went back and forth, but their genders seemed completely reversed. Although they were both good-looking, Xiangyi still felt repulsed.

If these two could truly predict the future, Xiangyi would eventually have all her secrets exposed by being too close to them.

Thinking this, Xiangyi decided to find a proper reason to refuse them.

"The requirements for being my friend are very strict. Do you know Zhang Mou, Mrs. Zhang?"

"I know, Qin Tianzhu's wife has a very interesting name," the twins replied. Hearing their father's name made Qin Xiangyi feel incredibly awkward.

She knew she shouldn't have used the naming tool for everyone. She thought Qin Tianzhu was funny before, but now...

Qin Xiangyi forced a smile and said, "If you want to be friends with me, you first have to be friends with Mrs. Zhang. I have a task for you tonight. If you can safely escort Mrs. Zhang home, we can take our friendship a step further."

Recalling the reaction of the uncle with the broken hand earlier, and Zhang Mou's lonely state, Qin Xiangyi decided to protect Zhang Mou before she received Zhang Mou's last kiss.

The twins looked at each other and readily agreed. Seeing this, Qin Xiangyi took the initiative to add the twins on WeChat, marking the first step in their friendship.

"Alright, I'll take Sister Shuxuan and go now." After finishing everything, Qin Xiangyi smiled faintly. Even though the uncle hadn't done anything that night, Qin Xiangyi could confidently proceed with her next plan.

The three waved goodbye, and Qin Xiangyi hailed a taxi to return home. She changed Jing Shuxuan's clothes, wiped her down casually, and after a lot of fuss, it was already past three in the morning.

Jing Shuxuan was completely unaware of her surroundings, looking like a sleeping beauty. Qin Xiangyi sat by the bed, about to check the time, when she noticed a WeChat message.

The message was from Qin An, one of the twins. She thought it was just a friendly greeting after adding her, but when she opened the interface, Qin Xiangyi saw a picture.

The picture showed the same uncle with the broken hand, but unfortunately, his other hand was also broken. He was in pain, and even more horrifyingly, the background was a police station. It seemed the uncle couldn't control his thoughts and was beaten by the two people tailing and protecting Zhang Mou, who then sent him to the hospital.

[WeChat]Qin An: As you said, I broke his other hand too. Hehehe, are we friends now?

Qin Xiangyi remembered her own feelings at the KTV. She thought it was just a fleeting thought, but she never expected the twins would actually hear her and carry out her wish.

[WeChat]Qin Xiangyi: Wait, aren't you going to get in trouble?

[WeChat]Qin An: Teaching a dog from our own family a lesson will at most earn me a few scoldings from my grandpa.
