Chapter 242: Chapter 242 The Perverted Leader of the Beidou Star Chapter 242: Chapter 242 The Perverted Leader of the Beidou Star Xuan Jing detected the wariness in Qingwu’s words.
He adjusted his smile to one of apology and looked at Qingwu with a sorry expression.
“You misunderstood, schoolmate. I didn’t an anything else. You’re Shaojia’s sister, right? I didn’t get a chance to greet you at the hospital last ti. I’m not a bad person.”
“Maybe I startled you, and perhaps greeting you like this wasn’t a mature approach. Sorry.”
Qingwu glanced at him indifferently.
“Whether you’re a bad guy or not, what does it have to do with ? You’re blocking my way. Move aside.”
Xuan Jing moved his wheelchair, watching Qingwu disappear into the tree-lined path without looking back, and his smile faded.
He muttered to himself, “Quite the stubborn one, but to lead the High Tower, she indeed isn’t an ordinary person.”
A tall, limping man erged from the shadows of the path, standing behind Xuan Jing, sneering and shrugging.
“Did you think such a casual chat would win her over? She’s a witch, much more ruthless than you think!”
“She stands with Pei Jue simply because she’s impressed by the Pei Family’s status. The Xuan Family isn’t lacking either.”
Tarzan remained silent for a mont, the towering white man now expressing his lack of understanding about Xuan Jing’s confidence.
“Should I remind you that neither the Shen Family nor the High Tower lacks money? The witch herself is from a wealthy family, so maybe it’s Singer’s looks she’s attracted to?”
“Looks? If she’s that superficial, then it’s easier to handle. I’m not visually worse off than Pei Jue.”
Tarzan cast a glance at Xuan Jing, his lips twitching, his expression complicated.
Are all people from Hua Country this confident?
“I’ve already completed the procedures. Being close to the water, Shen Family’s young lady will eventually realize I’m better than her fiancé.”
An elite marriage agreent ans nothing. Once Qingwu spends more ti with him, she’ll also see his virtues.
Tarzan shrugged helplessly.
“Of course, it’s your freedom. Just don’t interfere with my task.”
…
As Qingwu walked into the auditorium, Tian Yue jumped out from the side to greet her.
“Boss, did you encounter Xuan Jing on the road just now? What’s he up to?”
When Qingwu encountered Xuan Jing, her earpiece hadn’t been turned off, so Tian Yue heard the commotion from that side.
“What he wants is not important. Where’s the teacher?”
Tian Yue pointed to the auditorium stage.
“The teacher has been invited to play a piece at next week’s opening ceremony. We’re here to assist him.”
“Invited by whom?”
Master Shi Yujiang hadn’t perford on stage for many years, the last public performance being at a state banquet.
The person who could persuade Master Shi Yujiang to perform must not be simple.
“Of course, it was that legendary forr Beidou Star leader, Ye Qilan! But when the teacher t him, I wasn’t allowed to watch. It was all very secretive. Afterwards, he just said he would play a piece for entertainnt.”
“Being able to have the teacher perform ans this Ye Qilan is indeed remarkable.”
Tian Yue, saying this, seed a bit regretful. She didn’t get to use any of her pre-prepared eavesdropping thods and was warned instead!
Qingwu nodded slightly.
The last photo of Ye Qilan with Lin Huazhen, also left by Master Hai Xin, showed that the elder Constellations indeed had connections with Ye Qilan.
Master Shi Yujiang’s return to the country this ti was most likely related to Ye Qilan as well.
Qingwu’s gaze fell on the man standing next to Master Shi Yujiang.
The long-haired, elderly man in a traditional Zhongshan suit, embroidered with flying dragons, his features amidst aging yet sharp, matched the man in Master Hai Xin’s photo.
Seemingly sensing Qingwu’s gaze, Ye Qilan raised his eyes and t Qingwu’s from where she stood not far from the stage.
As the zither’s music fell, Master Shi Yujiang remarked discontentedly, “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen enough?”
He refused to believe that Ye Qilan hadn’t heard any news about Lin Huazhen all these years.
When Qingwu joined Beidou Star back then, he couldn’t have heard nothing.
Ye Qilan didn’t get angry.
His gaze at Qingwu was full of admiration, as if appreciating a rare piece of art.
“Indeed never seen, what a pity. If I had known of her existence earlier, I would’ve taken her away. Beidou Star didn’t uncover her talent. If I had her, she would be much better than she is now.”
“Bullshit! Your freakish experints don’t work at all!”
“You have no right to speak about my experints. Haven’t all Beidou Star’s Constellations shone brightly? Your current achievents are also thanks to my experints!”
Beidou Star’s Constellations shone in various fields, carving new paths and becoming industry leaders admired by many.
Yet, their hearts remained forever trapped in darkness.
Ye Qilan’s original intention to create Beidou Star was to acquire geniuses and illuminate humanity’s future to the utmost!
Reality proved him successful!
Master Shi Yujiang glared at Ye Qilan.
“One day you’ll understand that your experints are nothing but dross! I’m done arguing with you. Don’t forget your promise to .”
“Rest assured, I’ll take good care of this little girl for you. After all, she’s Huazhen’s granddaughter. Seeing her reminds of Huazhen in the past. Her choice to co to this school is our destiny.”
Master Shi Yujiang stood up, putting away the Ancient Zither.
“Destiny is what’s predestined. Human manipulations are nothing but conspiracies.”
Ye Qilan rely smiled without a word.
…
Leaving the auditorium, Master Shi Yujiang remained silent.
After a mont, he frowned at Qingwu, his words tinged with worry.
“Little Qing, how about changing schools? If it doesn’t work, we can skip this university and return to the island with the old n. We can have those brats return, too. At least they can ensure your safety.”
Everything on the island was dictated by Beidou Star.
Letting Qingwu stay in Beijing, right under Ye Qilan’s nose, Master Shi Yujiang couldn’t rest easy.
That old madman, the fervor in his eyes when looking at Qingwu was all too familiar to him!
In his eyes, Qingwu wasn’t a person but a perfect experintal subject, a flawless strand of data!
Qingwu was a bit surprised that Ye Qilan seed so terrifying to Master Shi Yujiang.
“Teacher, my family is still in Beijing. Besides, avoiding problems isn’t my style.”
“Couldn’t you take the Shen Family to the island? If not, just kidnap them all and toss them onto the island.”
Qingwu sighed, placing a hand on her forehead, “Teacher, this is Beijing, not the frontier.”
It was utterly unrealistic to have the Shen Family join her on the island.
Elder Shen and Shen Shaojia had special statuses, generally unable to leave the country.
The Shen Family had their work, and their roots were in Beijing. How could they all adopt an isolated lifestyle because of her?
From the conversation between Master Shi Yujiang and Ye Qilan earlier, it wasn’t difficult to tell that they seed to have reached so agreent.
Master Shi Yujiang sighed.
“Forget it. As long as you know what you’re doing. Anyway, Ye Qilan is old as well. He should understand that Beidou Star now doesn’t bear the surna Ye!”
