Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

That damned Cheng Shuxue! How dare she humiliate her in public like that!

She will never let Liang Qianqian get away with this!

She wanted to make her daughter taste what it was like to be humiliated!

"I...!" Shen Yi wanted to explain, but she couldn't utter a single word.

She could only shield Shen Qingqing behind her to block Cheng Shuxue's gaze.

"Come with me!" Cheng Shuxue glanced coldly at the others, then pulled Liang Qianqian and walked out.

"mom!"

Liang Qianqian tried to struggle: "This really is a mistake..."

As Liang Qianqian was speaking, she saw a familiar figure at the door.

She was stunned.

The boy looked sad, his eyes were red, and he gave a forced smile: "I was just passing by, I didn't mean to overhear."

Cheng Shuxue glanced at the unfamiliar boy, noticed his expression, and immediately understood what was going on.

Although Liang Qianqian's actions were minor, they still made her lose face, so she thought of taking her back to her room first.

But after Liang Qianqian saw the boy, she couldn't pull him away no matter what she did.

"Xiao...Xiao Chen...what are you doing here?!" Liang Qianqian asked in extreme surprise.

"I just heard..."

Xiao Chen scratched his head: "I just heard you were here, so I came to check it out. I didn't expect you to be here..."

Liang Qianqian's face immediately turned red. She didn't want to hear Xiao Chen's next words, so she pulled Cheng Shuxue and quickly hid back in the room.

Seeing Liang Qianqian's different attitude towards Xiao Chen, Cheng Shuxue couldn't help but become suspicious: "Qianqian, what's your relationship with that boy from earlier?!"

"He's just an ordinary classmate!"

For some reason, Liang Qianqian felt incredibly guilty when she introduced herself.

She stubbornly explained, "It's a bit embarrassing right now. Xiao Chen is such a blabbermouth. If he tells the school, I'll be completely disgraced!"

Cheng Shuxue looked at Liang Qianqian with disbelief: "You've told me all the most explosive gossip from your school, why would you mind this?!"

"I......!"

Liang Qianqian was speechless for a moment, but stubbornly said, "Mom! I'm still very conservative, okay! This was really an accident! I don't know what happened last night!"

"What's wrong?!"

Cheng Shuxue snorted coldly: "It's obvious that the Shen family did this!"

"It...it doesn't matter, does it?!"

Liang Qianqian's voice was hesitant: "We came here this time... wasn't it for this very thing?! Isn't now the perfect time?!"

"What's good!"

Cheng Shuxue tapped Liang Qianqian's forehead with exasperation: "With your naivety, you'd be devoured whole by the Shen family! I absolutely cannot let you into their home!"

"what?!"

Although Liang Qianqian called out, she was secretly pleased to realize that Cheng Shuxue opposed her marriage to Shen Yu.

"Ah for what!"

Cheng Shuxue tapped Liang Qianqian's forehead again: "Actually, in my opinion, although the Shen family is not good, Shen Yu is a decent child. I watched him grow up. He is a good child and is barely worthy of my Qianqian."

So Mom thought of having the Shen family marry into the family, that way Mom wouldn't be afraid of you being bullied!

"Huh?!" Liang Qianqian's eyes widened, then she waved her hand: "The Shen family is a wealthy family, they would never agree to this!"

"impossible?!"

Cheng Shuxue sneered: "Now, the Shen family is indispensable! Without the Liang family's help this time, the Shen family... wouldn't last long! They would be wiped out of the elite circles!"

"The Shen family's situation is that serious?!" Liang Qianqian was extremely surprised.

Cheng Shuxue nodded: "Shi Xiaxia is a capable woman! If the Shen family had chosen Shi Xiaxia instead of Shen Qingqing back then, I'm afraid the Shen family wouldn't need to form a marriage alliance with us now!"

"Oh!" Liang Qianqian didn't quite understand, but she nodded in agreement with her mother.

"Qianqian! Stay away from Shen Qingqing!"

Cheng Shuxue warned Liang Qianqian again: "That Shen Qingqing is no good! She's scheming and has no bottom line! She's capable of anything!"

Those who have been with her have never had a good ending!

"Mmm-hmm!" Liang Qianqian nodded perfunctorily.

She didn't listen to anything Cheng Shuxue said at all; she was only thinking about Xiao Chen coming to find her...

He came to see me... is there something he needs?!

......

After Liang Qianqian left, Shen Qingqing glanced at Xiao Chen a few times and realized that he was the classmate whom Liang Qianqian had talked to, the one she both loved and hated.

Shen Qingqing smoothed her hair, intending to talk to Xiao Chen and try to get closer to him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, Xiao Chen glanced at her with red eyes and extreme indifference, then turned and walked away.

Shen Qingqing had never been so neglected by a man before, and her chest heaved violently with anger.

There were other people present, so Shen Qingqing could only feign indifference and laugh awkwardly twice.

She then made up a random excuse and went back to her room.

"system!"

As soon as Shen Qingqing returned, she summoned the system and asked curiously, "You just said that you can extract Liang Qianqian's luck value?!"

"Yes host."

The system replied: "Liang Qianqian's current favorability towards the host is 92 points, and 80 points of luck value can be extracted."

"80 points?!"

Shen Qingqing was somewhat shocked: "So many?!"

It seems she hasn't done much yet, so how could she extract so much luck value from Liang Qianqian?!

Could it be...

Shen Qingqing thought of Xiao Chen...

Perhaps this change is related to him!

"Extract it!" Shen Qingqing wasn't going to be polite with anyone now!

She'll extract all the luck points she can! Not a single one left!

System: "Extraction successful. Current remaining luck value: 710 points. Keep up the good work, host!"

After successfully extracting the funds, Shen Qingqing thought to herself, "It seems the plan was a success. Whether it's Shen Yu or Liang Qianqian, I've gained a lot! It was really worth it!"

......

Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Murong Quan originally wanted to leave and continue his travels elsewhere, but there were still things he hadn't figured out, so Shi Xiaxia couldn't leave.

Su Yueke only wanted to stay with Shi Xiaxia, so Murong Quan had no choice but to stay.

"Xiaxia, look!"

Early in the morning, Qiao Zihao came over with a flyer: "The girl who will 'marry the Sea God' has been chosen! The event will be held tonight!"

Shi Xiaxia took it and looked at it; the entire promotional page was filled with mysterious and exaggerated colors.

"Let's go check it out tonight!" Shi Xiaxia made the final decision.

As evening fell, the group of four followed the flow of people to the beach.

The venue for the "Marry the Sea God" event was already packed with people, making it impossible to get to the front.

The group then moved to a spot a little further away where they could still see the area clearly.

The activity began shortly after the four people had taken their positions.
