"Yes."
Since they were in the library, all the students attending the lecture had consciously put on earphones to avoid disturbing others.
However, you can always encounter people without any sense of propriety.
After being punished, Shi Qingyue got angrier the more she thought about it. She had clearly done nothing. Why should she be punished?
And when something so serious happened to Shi Wan, the school not only didn't say a single word of blame but even comforted her.
Why?
Seeing Shi Wan sitting there quietly attending the lecture made Shi Qing burn with anger. She just wanted to tear the person in front of her to pieces and let everyone see her true nature.
But here, she wasn't stupid enough to shout and scream. Instead, she walked up to her and gently tapped on the table.
"Mom and Dad want you to go home."
Shi Wan looked up at her and didn't say a word.
"You..."
As soon as her voice came out, it immediately attracted the attention of other students.
"If you don't go back, Mom and Dad will come to find you themselves."
After saying that, Shi Qing turned around and left. Anyway, she had delivered the message. Shi Wan was a person who hated trouble, so she would definitely go back.
Then, she just had to wait and watch the show.
How dare she scheme against her? Did she really think she was a member of the Shi family?
"Wanwan, did she ask you to go back because of what happened yesterday?"
"Yes."
It was nothing more than that they felt embarrassed and wanted to teach her a lesson for their precious daughter.
Zheng Zhi said worriedly, "Are you going back?"
"No."
She still had something to do tonight.
Zheng Zhi nodded, wanting to say something but stopping. The Shi family really treated Shi Wan badly. If she went back, she would probably just get scolded.
"Miss Shi!"
As soon as Shi Wan walked out of the school gate, she saw Yu Chen getting out of the car. He was handsome, dressed in a suit, and stood out in the crowd. Not to mention that he had been on the news before. As soon as he called out, many people recognized him.
Then they saw Shi Wan, and the looks in everyone's eyes instantly changed.
Shi Wan said calmly, "What's the matter?"
"My father has woken up. He really wants to thank you in person and also hopes to get to know you so as to avoid offending his benefactor in unnecessary situations."
He had come to look for Shi Wan many times before, but he had never seen her. This time, he had just come with the mentality of giving it a try.
Unexpectedly, he really ran into her.
"No need."
"Miss Shi, my father's health..." Yu Chen stepped forward and said in a low voice, "We also hope you can go and take a look. The consultation fee and such will not be less."
Shi Wan looked at him for a few seconds and suddenly smiled, "Okay."
This was just one of her little hobbies.
"Please."
"Sir, why did the young mistress..."
"Let's go."
Shen Siyan retracted his gaze from Shi Wan. His deep, black eyes unconsciously filled with chill. The narrow space instantly became cramped, making it hard to breathe.
The driver didn't dare to breathe loudly. As soon as they arrived at the Shen family's house, he immediately drove the car away.
This journey had been so suffocating for him.
He didn't expect that the sir, who was always called a good-for-nothing, could have such an imposing manner.
...
It was already ten o'clock at night when Shi Wan got home.
Thinking that Shen Siyan still needed treatment, she went straight to his room.
However, there was no one in the room.
Had he not come back yet?
After thinking for a while, just as she was about to leave the room, she bumped into a man's chest when she turned around.
"Ouch—" She covered her forehead and looked up. "Is your chest made of stone? You almost gave me a concussion."
Shen Siyan looked down at her. "Will you lose your memory?"
"Memory loss? Have you watched too many TV dramas?" She continued to rub her forehead. "A concussion is the mildest type of cranial injury. It will heal in at most thirty minutes. Memory loss is caused by damage to the hippocampus and cerebral cortex. Watch less TV dramas."
The man didn't say a word. He reached out his hand and gently rubbed her aching forehead.
"What did you do today?"
He had waited for her for so long. Was the Yu family really that good?
She actually didn't want to come back!
"I had something to do." Thinking that he was afraid that the treatment would be delayed, she added, "Don't worry. Missing a day or two won't matter."
Shen Siyan's face darkened. The air around him seemed to be shrouded in a low-pressure area. He pursed his thin lips tightly and looked at her coldly.
Was the Yu family ranked higher than him?
Was the Yu family more important than him?
As soon as this thought popped up, Shen Siyan was startled by himself.
Why had he been having such strange thoughts recently?
Was it because he was too idle?
Shi Wan was confused by his look. "What's wrong? I'm telling the truth. It won't delay your treatment."
"Do whatever you want."
As soon as the man, whose mood had been a little better, heard this, his anger flared up instantly. He left coldly with a single sentence.
"Wait!"
The man stopped in his tracks. Was she going to explain?
"This is your room."
If someone was going to leave, it should be her.
The man's face suddenly darkened. He turned around and gritted his teeth. "Shi Wan, can't you say something nice?"
Shi Wan looked confused. "..."
What had she done wrong that she needed to say something nice?
"Aren't you usually quite smart? Why are you...?" The man opened his mouth several times but finally only said, "Aren't you afraid that they will come and bully me if you come home so late?"
Shi Wan was stunned for a few seconds. "You're right."
Although the old master was protecting him, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't come up with some dirty tricks.
If the poisoning incident hadn't been detected before, this man would have been in a small box by now.
Seeing that she agreed, Shen Siyan pressed on. "Yes. Don't come home too late next time. It's too dangerous."
Mainly, those men outside might have some dirty thoughts when they saw a woman walking alone.
Especially the men from the Yu family.
After giving Shen Siyan another treatment, Shi Wan dragged her tired body back to her room and fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
Shi Qing waited outside the school for a long time but didn't see Shi Wan. After asking around, she found out that she had already left.
She stamped her feet in anger. When she got home, she immediately complained.
"That damned Shi Wan is so ungrateful! Not only did she disobey our order, but she also didn't even tell you when she left. Does she still consider us her parents?"
As soon as Li Zhaofeng heard that her daughter had been wronged like this, she couldn't hold back.
Shi Qing wiped away her tears aggrievedly. "Mom, you don't know how excessive she is. It's fine that she made me get punished by the school. I told her your message, but she ignored me and even said a lot of mean things. She even... even cursed you!"
Li Zhaofeng had no good feelings for the daughter who had just come back. She even hated her to the extreme.
"Mom will teach her a good lesson later. She's so ill-mannered!"
Shi Qing hugged her and said coquettishly, "Mom, what's the deal between her and Yu Chen? Will she bring disgrace to our Shi family later?"
"Don't worry. Others don't know that she's a daughter of the Shi family."
Shi Qing hesitated. "But... the people in my school know. She stole my limelight as soon as she came. I want everyone to know that she's from the countryside and be looked down upon."
"Do whatever you want. Mom won't object."
