After saying that, Zhang Youna looked at Qin He with a pitiful expression, trying to evoke a trace of pity and protectiveness in him: "I'm so scared being here all alone as a girl. I want to stay with you all the time, is that okay?"

Qin He found it somewhat amusing: "I didn't ask you to come, and you're trying to extort me?"

Zhang Youna: "That's not what I meant. I just felt that since you accepted my invitation to have dinner together, we should be considered good friends now, right? Isn't it normal for good friends to help and care for each other?"

"I didn't force you to treat me. You insisted on treating me yourself. Don't think that just because you did something for me, we have some kind of relationship. Stay away from me."

Qin He's words were so cold-hearted that even Lin Qingqing couldn't bear to listen anymore. If Zhang Youna hadn't been up to no good, she would have definitely given Qin He a good talking-to about how he could be so indifferent to a girl.

Just like a scumbag who takes advantage of you and then leaves.

You'll never find a wife this way!

But since the other party is Zhang Youna, I'll let it go this time.

However, Qin He and Qin Yansen are two extremes. One is overly obsessed with love, while the other is a playful creature with no love in his head.

It would be better if their heads were more evenly spaced.

That way, she might have less to worry about, and the original owner of this body wouldn't have fallen ill from being angered by Qin He.

Zhang Youna felt a chill run down her spine after hearing this. She had been pampered by everyone since childhood; she was the little princess of her family and a goddess in the eyes of outsiders.

Ever since this vixen appeared, she's stolen all the spotlight from her, and now all the men are swarming around her! She's so resentful!

Why?! In what way is she inferior to this vixen?!

At this moment, Qin He glanced at the younger version of Lin Qingqing on the other side, and was about to say, "Don't follow me either, this place isn't suitable for girls," when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Zhonglun staring intently at Lin Qingqing...

Then, instead of saying it, he changed his mind and asked, "Do you want to come with me?"

Lin Qingqing thought about it and agreed, since she had nothing to do at the hotel anyway.

Zhang Youna felt even more resentful. Why couldn't she follow along, but that vixen could?

Zhang Youna quickly called the driver and followed Qin He's car. Chen Zhonglun squeezed into the car before Zhang Youna could close the door.

Zhang Youna glared at Chen Zhonglun, her usual goddess-like image crumbling under his influence. She snapped, "What are you doing up here? This is my car."

Chen Zhonglun shamelessly said, "You're pursuing Qin He, and I'm pursuing that girl. We won't interfere with each other, and we can even help each other out. What's wrong with giving me a ride?"

Zhang Youna thought it made sense and didn't argue with Chen Zhonglun anymore.

……

In a corner of the reclaimed wasteland, a large group of workers are already working hard despite the high temperatures.

Chen Zhonglun's assistant, wearing a sun hat, wiped the sweat from his forehead. The cameraman next to him had set up his camera for a long time, but Chen Zhonglun was nowhere to be seen.

The photographer, inwardly lamenting how hard it was to earn money and how unlucky he was to have a sugar daddy like Chen Zhonglun, impatiently yelled at his assistant, "When are you going to get your young master? I'm about to get heatstroke. If he doesn't arrive soon, I'm going back to the hotel. I can't take it anymore..."

The assistant quickly reassured him, "Wait, wait, it'll be here soon..."

What the hell? I've been trying to call him for ages but haven't gotten through. I don't know what this young master is up to now. He could have just taken a couple of videos and photos and posted them online, but he, the main character, hasn't shown up at all.

As soon as the assistant finished speaking, two cars suddenly appeared in front of them. A man and a woman got out of one car, and a man and a woman also got out of the other car.

The assistant's eyes suddenly lit up: "Here he comes, young master is here!"

Chen Zhonglun never expected that Qin He and Lin Qingqing would come to the place where he planted trees; it was quite a coincidence.

Then Chen Zhonglun was surprised to discover that the tree-planting team he had hired was actually under Qin He's control.

So you could say that Qin He came to help him plant trees.

Chen Zhonglun walked up to Qin He and teased, "You had to come all this way for such a small thing? Looks like you're not doing so well in the Qin family."

Qin He didn't even look at Chen Zhonglun: "What's it to you? Mind your own business."

Chen Zhonglun's face darkened, but then he seemed to remember something and smiled: "If you're not doing well in the Qin family in the future, you can come to me and I can help you."

As Chen Zhonglun spoke, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Qin He.

But before Qin He could react, a slender finger snatched the business card first.

Chen Zhonglun turned around and saw Lin Qingqing. He was secretly pleased. What did she mean by snatching his business card? Did she want his contact information?

Before he could even be happy for three seconds, Lin Qingqing stuffed the business card back into his pocket.

Lin Qingqing said with a smile, "With me here, he will definitely live a very good life in the Qin family. You don't need to worry about it."

Chen Zhonglun's smug smile gradually froze. They had only known each other for a short time, and she was already protecting Qin He like this?

Young Master Chen Zhonglun's temper flared up instantly: "It's no use being nice to him. The Qin family will definitely not agree to you marrying into the family, so don't waste your time on him."

Qin He: "..."

Lin Qingqing: "..."

Lin Qingqing and Qin He exchanged glances for a second, then simultaneously turned their heads and cast a look at Chen Zhonglun as if he were looking at an idiot.

This word is really wrong.

Lin Qingqing quickly realized what was happening and glared at him, explaining, "Don't talk nonsense! We're relatives, blood relatives!"

Grandma and grandson dating? That's just against all logic! Even though she likes handsome young men, she would never lay a finger on her own grandson. She's not a pervert!

Upon hearing that they were relatives, Chen Zhonglun immediately laughed: "So we're all family!"

"Who's family with you?" Qin He glanced coldly at Chen Zhonglun, then reached out and grabbed Lin Qingqing's wrist, sending her back to the car.

Before closing the car door, Qin He looked at Lin Qingqing and said, "You should stay in the car and enjoy the air conditioning. Don't get out. It's too hot outside. If you stand outside for a while, you'll definitely get sunburned. My grandfather will probably come to me in a dream and blame me for not taking good care of you."

Lin Qingqing: "Why did you come here to plant trees? The Qin family doesn't need anyone to manage this project, does they?"

Mentioning this, Qin He was furious: "It's all because of Qin Yansen."

Lin Qingqing pursed her lips: "Did you offend him?"

"No, I just said something to tease him a little, who knew he'd be so petty!"

Lin Qingqing nodded. It seemed she would have to have a good talk with Qin Yansen later.

But there was no signal here, so Lin Qingqing shook her head helplessly and decided to wait until she got back to the hotel.

After Qin He got out of the car, he walked quite a distance and finally came across a small shop that sold apples and bread. He bought some of each and was carrying two bags of things back to his car when he suddenly heard a woman scream from inside the car.
