Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 14 Call the Police
Fang Tian was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth. They had already made a scene, and Qin Zhao had just asked her to go back to the classroom together.

They even said it wasn't safe to go back to the classroom with her, but it would be safe to be with the three of them in a dark and shabby place?
Why is Shen Yanci not safe?

"I feel most unsafe when I'm with you," she complained. If Shen Yanci really wanted to kiss her, she would be overjoyed.

"Then don't come out with me."

Qin Zhao, who was walking ahead, suddenly spoke up, her expression as calm as her tone, "If you're afraid, then don't go out alone with men."

Her eyes were dark and bright, her brows were relaxed as she glanced at her sideways, and there was a bruise on the corner of her mouth. The light from the corridor lamp cast a glow on her face.

She was surprised to find that Qin Zhao's features were quite beautiful, but she was too thin, frail and thin, and didn't look very elegant.

In particular, she always had a kind of... withdrawn, slightly decadent, and indifferent attitude that didn't belong to her age group, which was quite annoying.

In the bright light, a few students were playing around.

Fang Tian snapped out of her daze, her face suddenly burning. She must have been crazy to think Qin Zhao's features were handsome.

Fang Tian looked at the displayed figure and muttered, "How inexplicable."

...

The three people, who had been unfairly accused, looked at each other in bewilderment.

Chen Yu put his arm around Shen Yanci's shoulder: "Weren't we just insulted?"

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly, looked at Lin Shi, and said calmly, "It's his personality."

"..."

Chen Yu, recalling what had just happened, patted Lin Shi on the shoulder: "No, you were too ruthless just now. Was it really necessary to hit her? Even if she's your own brother, you didn't have to lay a hand on her."

"How was I supposed to know she wouldn't even dodge?" Lin Shi said, looking annoyed. Wasn't she quick and agile when he asked her for a hand earlier?
"Besides, I didn't use much force. Who knew she was like a thin piece of glass, shattering at the slightest touch."

Lin Shi felt a little uncomfortable, when Shen Yanci suddenly said, "Since you know it's glass, don't touch it."

"Okay," Lin Shi replied impatiently.

...

Shen Yanci finally messaged her, but instead of replying to her previous message, he started a new topic.

The message is simply: "Come to the connecting corridor."

Qin Zhao disliked Lin Shi, and consequently, he didn't want to get involved with anyone around him.

But considering that Shen Yanci was injured because of him, he still kept the appointment.

Qin Zhao saw him from a distance.

He wasn't wearing his school uniform, leaning on a cane with his left hand, lazily gazing into the distance. His figure was upright and unrestrained, his hair was fluffy and smooth, and the evening breeze blew through his hair and the hem of his clothes, the wind itself adding to his languid youthful charm.

A moon hangs in the night sky, hazy and indistinct, visible but unattainable.

Qin Zhao suddenly felt that he was very much like the moon.

It looks close, but it's actually very far away. She can't get close to it or touch it; it's another world that doesn't belong to her.

Shen Yanci seemed to have noticed her and turned to look at her.

Qin Zhao just stared at him, forgetting the past.

He lifted his eyelids slightly, his voice clear and pleasant: "Aren't you coming?"

Qin Zhao walked away in a daze, seemingly lost in thought, like a machine whose spring had been pulled out, unresponsive.

By the time she came to her senses, Shen Yanci was already standing in front of her.

She let out a soft "ah" and looked up at him.

"You can even space out while standing here." Shen Yanci raised an eyebrow, her tone slightly upturned.

Qin Zhao blinked slightly, shifting his gaze: "Is there something you need from me?"

It must be about medical expenses.

Shen Yanci's lack of response to his messages likely stems from the same reason Lin Shi: she doesn't want to talk to him.

Just as she was about to speak, a plastic bag with a pharmacy logo was handed to her.

Qin Zhao was taken aback for a moment, then didn't answer.

Shen Yanci hooked the plastic bag with his index finger and moved it closer to her hand: "It's for you."

For her?
Qin Zhao hesitated for a moment, then took it. Inside were some medicines for bruises and sprains, the packaging still intact, so there was no possibility that they were used to harm her. Why would Shen Yanci give her medicine?

It was all to mess with her.

She squeezed the handle of the plastic bag, making a very faint rustling sound. After thinking for a few seconds, she came to an answer.

Be polite before fighting.

Shen Yanci came to discuss compensation with her.

She said thank you and then organized her words: "I'm so sorry I caused you trouble that day. Give me the receipt, and I'll pay for all your medical expenses. As for lost wages... you can ask for them. I'll agree to anything within reasonable limits."

She didn't expect to be able to tackle Shen Yanci. When she jumped down, Shen Yanci was still a little further out under the tree. She didn't expect him to actually come out to meet her.

Within reasonable limits, she emphasized each word.

They almost had "Don't try to scam me" written all over their faces.

What kind of person do you take him for?
"Do you think I have that much free time?" Shen Yanci glanced down at the crutch under his arm. "You come here with a disability and strong will to ask you for lost wages."

Qin Zhao clutched the plastic bag in her hand, silently looking at him for a few seconds: "Isn't that right?"

"..."

"You don't accept payments via WeChat, isn't that because you feel it's not enough?"

Her serious expression silenced Shen Yanci.

"How many do you want?" Qin Zhao looked at him and asked tentatively.

She moved a little closer, her bright black eyes widened and then returned to their original state, vividly resembling a little dog eagerly watching its owner.

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly, leaned down, and lowered his voice: "I want it? You can't afford to pay for it."

The distance between the two people immediately shortened, especially when they lowered their voices, as if whispering in each other's ears.

Qin Zhao felt a sudden shiver run down his spine. His mouth opened slightly, and after a pause, he emphasized, "Therefore, it must be within a reasonable range."

"And," she pursed her lips, her voice lowering, "if it's too much, can it be paid in installments?"

Shen Yanci's move was quite clever. He first brought her medicine, then talked about money. How could she possibly refuse him directly?

Looking at Qin Zhao's conflicted and troubled expression, Shen Yanci suddenly felt like teasing him: "One million, how long do you plan to split it?"

! !
Take less?

Qin Zhao's eyes widened. She had expected it to be a considerable expense, but she hadn't imagined it would be this much: "You can't just extort me like this because you sent me medicine."

She read online that 2 was already too much for her to bear, but she never expected Shen Yanci to be so heartless.

She grabbed Shen Yanci's hand and returned the medicine to him.

They even took two steps back.

She knew that Qin Qiong and Lin Zheng must be quite wealthy, and that giving her two thousand yuan a week for living expenses was something she wouldn't even dare to dream of under normal circumstances.

How did Shen Yanci manage to ask for one million?
He's even more ruthless than Lin Shixin!

Shen Yanci looked at the person who had suddenly become wary and slowly said, "The treatment fee, tool fee, nutrition fee, and follow-up physical therapy fee will be 50,000. The rest—loss of classes, loss of wages, compensation for inconvenience in daily life, and compensation for mental distress."

The listed expenses were all quite normal, but she really couldn't agree with the amount: "It can't be more than a million, can it? Can you generate that much money in a month?"

“My stock account makes an average profit of 200,000 a day.” He pretended to think. “There are also some competition awards that can’t be compensated with money.”

Qin Zhao didn't know if Shen Yanci was telling the truth or not, but even if he was, he said, "Does your injured foot affect your brain?"

Sharp-tongued.

Shen Yanci's lips curled slightly: "I'm injured, I have insomnia, I can't sleep well, and I'm not in good spirits, which is affecting my ability to earn money and win awards."

"..."

"That's your problem, not mine." Seeing that they couldn't reach an agreement, Qin Zhao's rationality prevailed. "Strictly speaking, your injury wasn't caused by me. I didn't make you catch me. Paying your medical expenses is a matter of humanity, not an obligation."

“I already set your foot back up the other day, and there’s nothing seriously wrong with it. Your treatment was inhumane.”

"Ten thousand, twenty thousand at most." She gestured a number. "And I want to pay in installments, fifteen thousand a week."

"Or else—" she looked into Shen Yanci's eyes and said, word by word, "If you don't get a single cent, you can call the police."

"..."

Zhao Zhao: Duo Shao? You mean Duo Shao? So handsome, yet so ruthless?!
