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

Chapter 152 Do you need something?
Qin Zhao paused for a moment, glanced at him with her eyelashes lowered, moved her lips slightly, and then looked away.

He would rather think she was "cheating" than consider the possibility that she was a woman.

He also said he didn't know if he was gay.

She clutched the corset in her hand, exhaled softly, and said in an unusually cold voice, "Whatever."

"Like me?" Shen Yanci took a half step back, scoffing, tears rolling down her cheeks one by one. "Then what about your stories about liking the moon... going to England to watch the sunset... what are those?"

"You have someone else, so why are you still bothering me? Why are you still giving me hope? Is it fun to watch me beg for sex like a fool?" He said, jabbing his chest hard.

"Is it fun to play with me, Qin Zhao!"

He spoke very harshly; it was the first time he had ever been so harsh to her.

His chest heaved as he stared intently at her.

Qin Zhao stretched his hand forward and then withdrew it, his voice a little muffled: "Shen Yanci."

"Whose?" Shen Yanci's mouth twitched as if he couldn't speak, only tears streaming down his face. His voice was low, and he looked like he was about to break, but he just needed an answer. "When did you two start? Xia Yaoyao?"

"No one else."

Qin Zhao pursed her lips, lowered her head, and looked up at him: "Mine."

"..."

Shen Yanci was stunned.

The only sound in the room was a very faint, negligible hum of the air conditioner.

Qin Zhao, somewhat annoyed, put the corset into a compartment in the wardrobe: "Do whatever makes you happy."

Shen Yanci looked at Qin Zhao, who was hanging her head and not speaking. Her body was covered by loose clothes, her neck was slender, and it seemed that her thin back could be seen through it.

Lin Shi: "What are you two dawdling about again? Didn't you say you'd leave after calling Qin Zhao—huh? You're crying?"

Lin Shi looked at Shen Yanci, whose face was covered in tears, blinked in disbelief, then looked at Qin Zhao, then at Shen Yanci, then at Qin Zhao again: "You, you did this? No way."

"..."

Shen Yanci's voice was a little hoarse: "I need to use the restroom."

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement.

She walked to the desk and tidied the surface.

Lin Shi chased after Shen Yanci: "Dude, you really cried? Why?"

"Look here, let me take a picture of you to remember this moment."

"..."

With a snap, Lin Shi was shut out of the bathroom. He chuckled and said, "What are you shy about? I've seen all kinds of you."

"roll."

He buzzed over to Qin Zhao like a fly, whispering gossipily, "Why is he crying?"

"I bumped into the cabinet door."

"..."

Qin Zhao looked at him, his tone not very friendly: "What do you want from me?"

"We agreed to go to the party, it's time to leave."

"What party?"

"We're not graduating yet, so let's get together with a few close friends."

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement: "Have fun."

"Didn't we agree to go together?"

"What would I do at your party?"

“You know them all, Chen Yu, and the guys we played basketball with before.” Lin Shi nodded at her with a buddy-buddy expression. “I’ll take you to open some champagne, and I’ve saved a bottle especially for you.”

Qin Zhao's expression relaxed slightly: "I won't go, you can drive it for me."

"Why aren't you going! What are you doing staying at home? You should be indulging yourself a little before school starts." Lin Shi put his arm around her shoulder.
"Don't you like to eat? Australian abalone and Japanese Kobe beef, all flown in today. Shen Yanci also brought a bottle of 1999 Romanée-Conti."

As they were talking, Shen Yanci came out, her face still damp with moisture.

Lin Shi couldn't resist making a sarcastic remark when he saw him: "Your little pearl won't fall again? Is it really necessary for you to cry over bumping into a cabinet door?"

"..."

Qin Zhao nudged him lightly with her elbow, signaling him to stop talking. The gesture of stopping him unintentionally revealed an indescribable, natural intimacy.

Qin Zhao caught a glimpse of the darkness in Shen Yanci's eyes. She pursed her lips, removed Lin Shi's arm, and shooed them away: "I want to stay at home. You can leave now."

"It's so boring staying at home by yourself, go out and relax."

"Where's mom?"

“She’s made an appointment.” Lin Shi pulled her by the shoulder. “Come on, let me show you around.”

Qin Zhao let out a sound.

Remembering something, Lin Shi went up to Shen Yanci and said to Qin Zhao, "You hitch a ride with Shen Yanci."

"..."

Qin Zhao met his dark eyes, lowered her gaze, her fingers curled, and remained motionless: "I really don't—"

A shadow fell over the scene, dimming the light.

Qin Zhao looked up, and Shen Yanci tossed Lin Shi's hand off her shoulder: "It's the middle of summer, seeing you two makes me hot. Can't you walk by yourself?"

"..."

Lin Shi: "Are you poisonous?"

"Why are you so hot with the air conditioning at 20 degrees?" Lin Shi scoffed. "It's not like I didn't bring you along."

Shen Yanci ignored him, glanced at Qin Zhao, and asked in a slightly gentler tone, "Are you leaving or not?"

Lin Shi was the only one talking the whole way, and Qin Zhao could only see a small section of Shen Yanci's jawline.

She lowered her eyelids and turned her head to look out the window.

The gathering took place at a private club.

They arrived rather late; there were already five people inside, including Chen Yu: "Living in the same neighborhood is so convenient. Everyone comes and goes in pairs, saving on the need for a car."

Lin Shi: "Envious? Envious? You should move here too. The four of us can be a couple."

"..."

"No, there are only twenty households in Rose Garden. Even if my father is willing to buy, there has to be someone willing to sell."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Chen Yu suddenly pulled out a gift box wrapped in a present wrapper: "Happy birthday, Strong Kiss Bro."

Qin Zhao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and accepted it: "Thank you, Brother Big Fish."

"No problem. You seem to be having a great time on your study tour. You haven't posted much on WeChat Moments before, but Kuangkuang posted a lot of pictures this time." Chen Yu smiled mysteriously. "There's another surprise coming today."

"Ok?"

"You'll find out soon."

Lin Shi was completely bewildered: "What surprise? I didn't know that."

Chen Yu whispered in Lin Shi's ear, "The class beauty from Brother Qiangwen's class is coming too; Ji Zhili invited her."

"What kind of surprise is this?" Lin Shi looked at her like an idiot. "This is heartbreak, isn't it?"

"They have nothing to do with each other." Chen Yu smiled mysteriously. "Rumor has it that the class beauty is about to confess her feelings."

"For Ji Zhili?"

"Give it to the guy who forcefully kissed me."

"..."

"Are you the one who's acting crazy, or am I?"

"Just wait and see."

Shen Yanci lowered his eyelids and looked at Qin Zhao, who was arranging gifts on the side.

Lin Shi suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "A forceful kiss... The class beauty of Qin Zhao's class is going to confess her feelings to him."

Shen Yanci raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at him indifferently.

Lin Shi shrugged: "That's what Big Fish said."

"There are two fireworks, if it's real, let's set them off. And your red wine, maybe we can open it later."

Shen Yanci scoffed, "What do you want?"

"..."

Sorry... I've realized that staying up late is really bad. I'm getting a little sleepy while writing. The next chapter will be a bit late, you can read it tomorrow.
