Chapter 2: He came back crying, like a lapdog.

He started to evade the question, saying, "Have you thought this through? If you don't give me the money today, I won't take your money again, even if you beg me on your knees!"

Hearing Wan Jun's harsh words, Shen Baisu was overjoyed. "Really? That's wonderful!"

Wan Jun: "You...you'll regret this!"

After angrily uttering a few words, Wan Jun turned and left without looking back, though he walked rather slowly.

Shen Qi left a deep impression on Wan Jun, making him certain that Shen Baisu was just being petulant and would definitely regret it.

So, when he left, he deliberately slowed down, waiting for Shen Baisu to call him back.

Seeing his snail-paced movements, Shen Baisu mercilessly exposed his true intentions, "Why are you walking so slowly? Are you waiting for me to call you back?"

"Don't wait, I won't call."

"..."

Wan Jun began to panic. He suddenly quickened his pace, as if he were sprinting, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

**
Shen Baisu did not linger any longer; she left the bar and returned to the Shen family home.

Having not returned to the Shen family for hundreds of years, Shen Baisu felt a little melancholy as he stepped through the gates.

"Oh! You're back from being a simp?"

Just as she was vaguely recalling the past, Shen Baisu suddenly heard a teasing voice. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a boy wearing a baseball uniform and holding a can of cola standing at the kitchen door.

"Shen Mingyu?"

Shen Baisu retrieved the name from her memory.

With his name in hand, Shen Baisu quickly remembered his identity information.

Shen Mingyu is her half-brother.

Of course, he was not an illegitimate child, and Shen Baisu was not an illegitimate daughter.

Their father had been married eight times. Shen Baisu's birth mother was Shen's father's third wife, and Shen Mingyu's mother was Shen's father's... I think it was his fourth or fifth wife.

Besides Shen Mingyu, Shen Baisu also has many half-siblings.

Shen Baisu and Shen Qi rarely returned to the Shen family and didn't interact much with their siblings. Because there were so many siblings, Shen Baisu had difficulty matching names with people.

She might not have been able to remember the name of anyone else. The reason she was able to remember Shen Mingyu so quickly was because Shen Mingyu and Shen Qi didn't get along. They often argued and even fought a few times.

As for why...

It is because of Wan Jun.

Shen Mingyu is a celebrity who debuted at the same time as Wan Jun. They often competed for resources and eventually became rivals.

Shen Qi was a sycophant to Wan Jun, which naturally made Shen Mingyu resentful. Coincidentally, Shen Mingyu was Wan Jun's mortal enemy, and Shen Qi also disliked him. Therefore, the two had always been irreconcilable enemies.

Seeing that Shen Baisu didn't recognize him, Shen Mingyu snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "What? You've been bewitched by this pretty boy, and you don't even recognize me?"

Both of them knew perfectly well who the pretty boy Shen Mingyu was referring to. In the past, Shen Qi would have been so angry that she would have argued with Shen Mingyu on the spot.

But Shen Baisu wouldn't; how Shen Mingyu addressed Wan Jun was none of her business.

After staring at Shen Mingyu for two seconds, Shen Baisu said to him, "Your pants fell down."

Shen Mingyu: ?!
He looked down subconsciously.

Then he realized he had been scammed.

He looked up angrily, "Shen Baisu, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he realized the person in front of him had disappeared.

Shen Baisu was walking upstairs.

Watching her retreating figure, Shen Mingyu said viciously, "Shen Baisu, you damn simp! Just you wait, you'll get what's coming to you sooner or later." Shen Baisu didn't even turn her head.

After returning to her room, Shen Baisu immediately opened the window.

She sat down on the ground, crossed her legs, and began to meditate.

She didn't know why the sect had suddenly appeared in her space, nor did she know how to send it back.

The only course of action now is to seize the time to cultivate ourselves.

Only by improving one's cultivation level can one hope to lead the sect back to the Immortal Cultivation Continent.

Otherwise, her uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters would be homeless and pitiful.

Shen Baisu silently recited the incantation and tried to guide the Qi into her body. When she sensed spiritual energy entering her body, Shen Baisu couldn't help but feel happy.

Great, I can cultivate again.

"Young Master, you're back?"

As soon as the young man in the suit and tie entered the living room, an aunt came over and handed him slippers.

The young man's name was Shen Wenxu. He was the eldest son of the Shen family and the son of Shen's father's first wife.

After changing his shoes, Shen Wenxu walked into the living room and glanced upstairs. "Is Shen Baisu home?"

The aunt shook her head. "No, I haven't seen Miss San for several days."

Shen Wenxu frowned slightly.

Didn't Assistant Lin say she was at home?

Did he go out?
"Shen Baisu? Didn't she come back the night before last? And then she went out again?" Shen Mingyu appeared on the second floor, leaning on the railing of the corridor with his elbow, looking down at the first floor with a nonchalant air. "She really can't stay at home for even a day."

The aunt was slightly surprised. "Has the Third Miss come back? Did she go out early yesterday morning? I haven't seen her for the past two days."

Shen Mingyu clicked his tongue softly, "He came back, just the night before last. He came back crying, like an abandoned lapdog. He looked like a sycophant who got rejected again."

"I thought she was going to stay home and grieve for a few days, but I didn't expect her to go out again."

"This is really something. It turns out that being a simp can make you thick-skinned. She's getting more and more shameless."

It's no secret that Shen Baisu is a sycophant to Wan Jun. It's not a secret in the Shen family, in Yaocheng, or even in the entertainment industry.

Despite being an outsider, Shen Baisu is more famous than some celebrities because of her sycophantic behavior, which has earned her a large number of haters.

Originally, Shen Baisu's act of being a simp for someone wouldn't have become known to the entire internet, but who told her to fawn over a celebrity.

Wan Jun is no ordinary celebrity. He is a top star who has amassed millions of fans in just two and a half years since his debut. Because of her sycophancy towards Wan Jun, Shen Baisu has been on the trending topics several times, and over time, she has gained a large number of haters.

After hearing Shen Mingyu's words, Shen Wenxu frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Meeting Shen Wenxu's deep and cold gaze, Shen Mingyu dared not look directly at him, but since it concerned Shen Baisu, he did not back down. "How can you say such nonsense? This is the truth."

"Brother, if you don't believe me, why don't you call her right now and ask her? Maybe she's shamelessly licking some guy's boots right now."

Shen Wenxu frowned even more deeply.

He stared at Shen Mingyu for a few seconds, and only after noticing that Shen Mingyu was looking around and avoiding eye contact did Shen Wenxu take out his phone.

The call was dialed, but Shen Baisu did not answer for a long time.

Just as Shen Wenxu was about to hang up, he heard Shen Mingyu's voice coming from upstairs.

"Huh? Why is there a ringing bell in Shen Baisu's room?"

"When did you sneak back?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wenxu immediately strode upstairs.
