Shen Rao noticed those malicious gazes, glared back at them one by one with a cold face, and held her shoulders to block them to the side.

When faced with his sharp eyes, those people turned their gazes away like quails, looking at the sky and the earth.

Of course Qi Yan also felt it, but she didn't take it to heart. She casually patted the back of his tense hand and spoke softly.

"Calm down, Shen Rao."

She was afraid that if she wasn't paying attention, he would rush over and beat someone up.

Shen Rao retracted his brows, the coldness in his eyes faded away, and he secretly took note of this group of people.

Qi Yan has a good temper and he will never let go of any grudge.

Chen Shi looked at the two people who were in a harmonious atmosphere, and smiled as he responded to Jin Hui's words.

"Miss Qi and I do have a special relationship," he continued amid the crowd's gloating, "She is my savior. Without her, I wouldn't be who I am today. Not to mention giving her the Jade Guanyin, even giving her the Stone Archway is reasonable."

"A savior?"

Jin Hui was suspicious.

"Yes, I nearly slipped off a cliff when I went to the mountains to play. It was Miss Qi who saved me, otherwise I would have died long ago," Chen Shi said with tears in his eyes. "I am really very grateful to her. I even want to recognize her as my godmother. After a hundred years, I can also honor her."

Jin Hui: “…”

Everyone: "..."

"Fuck, godmother?"

Jin Hui's eyelids twitched and the corners of her mouth twitched.

"That's right! Miss Qi is my adopted parent! I lost my mother when I was young, and I have considered her my godmother for a long time! It's normal to give my godmother some gifts and show filial piety, right?"

Chen Shi's expression was exaggerated, tears came easily, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Qi Yan was sincere and full of sincerity.

With that look, he completely forgot that he was more than five years older than Qi Yan. It was hard to say who would reach the age of a hundred first.

Qi Yan was obviously used to it and didn't react at all to Chen Shi's nonsense, as if everything he said was true.

Shen Rao's originally wary attitude towards him also became somewhat complicated, and Chen Shi looked at him very understandingly.

"You must be my godfather!"

Shen Rao: “…”

He wiped his hands, and shook Shen Rao's hand with a silly smile, "I didn't have time to introduce myself to you just now. I'm Chen Shi, and I'm doing some small business like jade, jewelry, gambling stone auctions, etc..."

Shen Rao felt even more complicated as he listened to his introduction.

Just as he was about to say something politely to him, Chen Shi was pulled away by the collar.

Qi Yan let go and said speechlessly: "Alright, stop talking nonsense, just go back after sending it off."

"Okay, okay, fuck..." Qi Yan glared at him and he immediately changed his words, "Since Miss Qi has said so, I won't stay any longer. I'm leaving first."

As he said that, he asked everyone to leave. He walked out the door, then stepped back and smiled at Qi Yan with his teeth showing.

"Miss Qi, can we talk for a while in private?"

"Okay," Qi Yan asked Shen Rao to sit on the sofa and patted his head. "Be good and wait for me for a while. I'll be back soon."

"Ah."

Shen Rao responded and sat obediently, his knees covered with the blanket that Qi Yan had someone bring.

The others didn't stop him. After Chen Shi's explosive speech just now, who would still believe that he and Qi Yan were having an affair?

Now I only have one thought left, that the owner of Shifang is actually a psychopath.

Compared to Qi Yan, they were more shocked that Shen Rao, a second-generation rich man whose words could outwit three of yours, could be so honest.

Even Qin Nongyu looked at him more.

After Qi Yan left, Shen Rao didn't even move. If someone else asked him to be good, it would be like poking a bomb.

Qin Nongyu looked away and realized that there was really someone who could subdue this brat.

Outside the hall, in the corridor.

Chen Shi furtively confirmed that no one was around before approaching Qi Yan, "Godmother... bah, no..."

He fanned his lips and said, "Boss, it's been a long time since we last met."

Qi Yan narrowed her eyes dangerously, "I don't even know when I became your godmother? Your second parent?"

"Haha," Chen Shi laughed dryly, "I'm just afraid that this family will misunderstand you. It's better to ruin my image than to ruin yours. Besides..."

He paused, and his smile widened a little: "What I said is correct. You are indeed my second parent, and you have given me a second life."

At this time, Chen Shi looked at Qi Yan with deep admiration in his eyes.

It was a look that reflected faith, like the glow of a devout believer when he worshipped Guanyin.

If possible, he really wanted to recognize the person in front of him as his godmother, but unfortunately he was not worthy.

Qi Yan looked back at him silently, "You don't have to say that."

"Boss," Chen Shi raised his palm, "You gave me my life, so don't even mention calling you mom, you can even call me ancestor."

Who among these people has not received her kindness?

The story of his rescue wasn't entirely made up.

Qi Yan: “…”

She sighed, "Don't yell, I don't have a son as old as you, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Chen Shi smiled brightly again, pointed into the side hall, and whispered.

"Okay, boss. The boss lady is really attractive. You have good taste and know how to choose."

He gave Qi Yan a thumbs up.

Seeing his frivolous look, Qi Yan frowned, "Is that what you want to say?"

Shen Rao is good-looking, can he say that?

"no no."

Chen Shi keenly sensed her displeasure and said seriously.

"Please pay attention to the boss lady's third uncle. He is a big customer of our stone shop and often buys the raw stones for the site. I heard from his gambling friends that he often visits overseas casinos... You should be more cautious. All the money spent is the boss lady's earned money!"

Chen Shi didn't know the Shen family very well, but he knew Shen Houan, a crazy gambler.

Originally, he was happy to see Shen Houan throwing money at him, but it was different after today. Shen Rao and the boss were a couple, and since he had given the store's treasure to him, it was definitely a done deal.

The person in charge of the Shen family is the boss's wife, so he cannot treat Shen Houan as a grudge, otherwise it would be equivalent to killing the boss, which is very psychologically burdensome.

Qi Yan didn't have any special reaction after hearing this, "I understand."

"Don't just know it."

Chen Shi began to think that the emperor was not anxious, but the eunuchs were.

Qi Yan had no choice but to agree with him and said, "I'll let the people below pay attention."

"That's fine."

Chen Shi was satisfied.

"Are you okay?"

Qi Yan was ready to chase him away.

"Have!"

Chen Shi clapped his hands, and his assistant appeared out of nowhere, handed him the tablet, and quickly left.

He pulled out the list on the screen and said, "Take a look. This is this year's financial report, as well as some accounts from previous years."

Qi Yan felt it was troublesome and didn't want to look at it, so he said perfunctorily: "No need to look, I trust you to do the job."

"boss……"

Chen Shi was deeply moved and wiped away the tears from his eyes, but he still forcefully stuffed the tablet into her hands with a slightly resentful tone.

"I haven't seen you in a few years, and I only see you once a year, so you'd better come and see me."

Qi Yan couldn't persuade him, so he scrolled through the report line by line, inputting the detailed information as if printing.

Chen Shi knew her reading speed, so he stood aside and waited for her to finish reading. However, he could not help but glance at the side hall with its door half open.

"Actually, I really didn't expect that you would fall in love with the Shen family."
