Mr. Zhan’s Little Demon is All Grown up

Chapter 9

Awkward

“Not bad!” Sheng Xiao turned to look at Shi Qian.

Shi Qian glanced at him from the corner of her eyes and said in an unmodest tone, “It’s alright,”

Lu Sizhe laughed.

‘This girl’s personality was not bad.

‘However, why did this tone sound so familiar?’

Shi Qian didn’t say anything. She stopped in her tracks and looked at the road in the distance.

Beside a black car.

Shi Yaorong and Song Yuzhi stood together. They talked and laughed. They looked like a loving couple.

After a while, Shi Muxue walked over to the two and excitedly called out for her parents.

Shi Muxue knew that Shi Qian watched from a distance. She hugged Shi Yaorong’s arm and said coyly, “Father, why did you come to pick me up?”

Shi Yaorong smiled amiably. “I’ve been away for so long. Of course, I miss my precious daughter. By the way, I’ve also brought you a gift.”

Then, the driver took out an exquisite box from the car.

Shi Yaorong took it and passed it to Shi Muxue. “Guess what it is? You’ve always wanted it.”

Shi Muxue’s eyes lit up as she smiled and said, “Is it ‘true love’? The latest necklace from ‘charm’?”

Song Yuzhi laughed. “See? I told you that your daughter could guess it right away.”

“It is ‘true love’?!” Shi Muxue looked so touched that she was about to cry. She said gently, “Dad, thank you!”

Shi Yaorong’s family of three got into the car after that.

Shi Yaorong overlooked Shi Qian, who was sparingly near.

Shi Qian retracted her dark gaze and continued to walk forward indifferently.

She knew that Shi Yaorong’s entire family had moved to the capital and had utterly ignored her existence.

Even though she had long since stopped caring about it, her chest still felt a little stuffy when she saw the family of three had such a happy time.

Sheng Xiao looked at Shi Qian with a complicated expression and caught up with her again. “Where are you going? Do you want me to give you a ride?”

Shi Qian smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes.

“Thank you, but it’s fine.”

She quickened her pace after that and left the school gate. She left the two behind.

At the king’s garden.

Shi Qian was about to enter the villa when she suddenly stopped. She turned around and walked towards the garden.

She picked a rose and sniffed it.

The fragrance of the flowers refreshed her. And it made her mood happy and swept away all her worries.

She had reached the end of the garden unknowingly and there was a bamboo forest in front of her.

She walked into the bamboo forest, and a place with hot air appeared not far away.

It was Shang Sizhan’s private hot spring.

She walked forward again.

“Who’s there??!” An icy voice suddenly sounded.

Shi Qian suddenly realized there was someone in the hot spring!

“Zhan… Young Master Zhan!”

Shi Qian quickly covered her face with her hands. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I… I didn’t do it on purpose!”

Why is the evil big boss in the hot spring?!

Shi Qian turned around and ran. She covered her eyes and couldn’t see the way. She hit her head against a wall after she ran a few steps.

“Oh!” Shi Qian felt the pain and immediately rubbed her forehead with her hand while she covered her eyes.

She finally realized that she didn’t hit a wall at this moment, but Shang Sizhan!

Wasn’t he still in the hot spring just now? How did he catch up so quickly?

Shang Sizhan wore a white bathrobe. His wheat-colored skin still dripped with water.

Shi Qian’s face was slightly red, not daring to look at him.

Shang Sizhan’s dark phoenix eyes looked at the girl in front of him. So it was her.

“Why are you here?” A low and magnetic voice sounded.

Shi Qian replied awkwardly. “I was just looking around and didn’t know you were here. I didn’t mean to peek at you. Please continue. I’ll leave immediately.”

With that, Shi Qian tried to run away again.

“Stop!” The man’s voice was authoritative.

Shi Qian was forced to stop in her tracks and lowered her head. Helplessness shrouded her face. She knew she was dead for sure.

“Young Master Zhan, I’m sorry!”

“If an apology works for everything, what’s the use of the law?”

Shi Qian was speechless.

She raised her head and looked at him. “Then… Then what are you going to do?”

A touch of evilness shrouded Shang Sizhan’s good looks and phoenix eyes as he opened his thin lips slightly. “You’ve seen me, so you have to take responsibility.”

Shi Qian was speechless.

Why did these words sound so familiar?
