Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1969: Chapter 1969: Breeding Rules (10)

Shang Qi’s actions once again provoked Shang Yucheng, who walked over directly to confront Shang Qi.

Chuzheng turned her head to glance at the scene, and at the instant Shang Yucheng raised his hand, her gaze turned cold, a silver gleam flashed, and the aggressive Shang Yucheng fell ’plop’ onto the carpet.

Shang Qi: ”...”

Everyone: ”...”

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Chuzheng’s little paw was clutching Shang Qi’s shoulder, her head leaning against his chin, coldly staring at Shang Yucheng.

That bastard still wants to hit my person!

I’ve never even hit him myself!

Shang Yucheng completely didn’t know how he fell, and by the time he reacted, he was already sprawled on the ground.

Indeed, nothing good happens when together with this disaster!

Shang Yucheng got up with a livid face, still wanting to hit Shang Qi to vent his inner anger, but unfortunately, Shang Qi didn’t give him the chance, dodging Shang Yucheng’s slap.

”You still dare to dodge!” Shang Yucheng pointed at Shang Qi: ”What wrong did the Shang family commit to give birth to something like you!”

Shang Qi rarely talked back, but when he did, it wasn’t polite: ”You should ask Mr. Shang what mistakes he committed in his past life.”

”You, you, you...! Disgraceful!”

Shang Yucheng was so angry he nearly passed away on the spot.

”Mr. Shang, don’t be angry.” He Jin, who had been watching the show, finally spoke up, first to calm Shang Yucheng down.

At this point, Shang Yucheng seemed to grasp a lifeline: ”Mr. He, you must help me take a look at this disgrace; if this continues, he will end up ruining our entire family!”

Shanyu is in the hospital right now, all because of this disgrace.

He Jin: ”There’s no hurry in this matter, I have a solution, but I need Little Mr. Shang’s cooperation.”

There was no fatherly concern in Shang Yucheng’s eyes, only anger and resentment, as he gritted his teeth: ”Cooperate, he dare not cooperate!”

Shang Qi looked at them indifferently, as if he had no feelings about what they said.

Only Chuzheng knew the storm brewing in the calm depths of Shang Qi’s tense eyes.

After Shang Yucheng and He Jin talked, they turned to Shang Qi: ”Shang Qi, I’m telling you, behave yourself, don’t leave the manor again, or don’t blame me for being rude!”

”When have you ever been polite to me.”

Shang Yucheng was confronted, his anger surged, he wished he could kill this rebellious son.

Shang Yucheng clutched his chest and took a couple of breaths, not wanting to see him anymore.

”Mr. He, when can we start?” Shang Yucheng didn’t avoid Shang Qi at all, just like when he initially sought out that Taoist.

”There’s no rush, I still have some things to prepare.” He Jin’s tone remained gentle: ”Let’s leave it at that for today.”

”Alright, alright, alright...”

Shang Yucheng had immense trust in He Jin, when he spoke he immediately intended to depart.

He Jin, however, said to wait a moment, looking at Chuzheng held in Shang Qi’s arms, he smiled and asked: ”Little Mr. Shang, this cat isn’t yours, right?”

Shang Qi fiercely hugged Chuzheng: ”It’s mine.”

”Really?”

”What’s yours!” Shang Yucheng interrupted: ”You hadn’t kept one before, where did you get this creature from? Mr. He, is there something wrong with this creature?”

Things like cats are inherently sinister, Shang Yucheng had been frightened, now he found everything suspicious.

”This little cat seems like the one I lost.” He Jin said warmly: ”Little Mr. Shang, it’s not good to take someone else’s things without permission.”

Shang Qi furrowed his brow, Yue Ban was indeed found by him, but...

He Jin: ”Little Mr. Shang, may I have it back?”

If under normal circumstances, Shang Qi might not argue with He Jin.

After all, it was indeed picked up by him.

But this little guy is different.

He didn’t want it to leave him.

Shang Qi raised his gaze and looked directly at He Jin: ”What makes you say it’s yours?”

He Jin chuckled, his gaze falling on Chuzheng: ”Muse, you’ve played long enough outside, it’s time to come home.”

He Jin’s voice seemed to carry a kind of enchantment.

Chuzheng recognized it; her body instinctively reacted.

However, Chuzheng had been in this body for a long while, able to fully control it.

He Jin’s smile did not falter: ”Muse?”

—If you don’t come back with me, you’ll regret it.

He Jin clearly hadn’t spoken, yet Chuzheng still heard it.

This was He Jin’s ability.

He Jin extended his hand: ”Come now. You’ve disturbed Little Mr. Shang long enough, you’re not being a good child.”

Chuzheng: ”...” Nutcase! My card, I can disturb as I please! What’s it to you!

He Jin appeared to be sensing something, but as time passed and Chuzheng didn’t react, his face gradually darkened.

He couldn’t hear its thoughts anymore.

This shouldn’t be...

Chuzheng was too lazy to pay him any mind, directly turning her head to clutch her Good Person Card, her tail wrapping around Shang Qi’s wrist.

Chuzheng’s action caused a crack to appear in Shang Qi’s dark mood, a faint glow falling into the depths of the abyss.

Shang Qi raised his hand to stroke Chuzheng’s back, issuing an eviction notice to the two: ”It doesn’t recognize you, you can leave now.”

-

Shang Qi stood by the window, the distance consumed in darkness, not a single star was visible, while below was illuminated brightly by car lights.

Shang Qi watched as He Jin and his father left together, and before He Jin got into the car, he turned to glance in this direction.

That gaze was complex and sharp, completely different from the gentleness he had shown earlier.

That person...

Shang Qi felt uncomfortable in his presence.

Shang Qi first turned to leave, holding Chuzheng, going upstairs, and walking through the second floor corridor, just in time to see the cars leaving, heading towards the manor’s gate.

Shang Qi didn’t feel any pain; he was used to it.

Shang Yucheng’s disgust and hatred, the Shang family members’ fear and dread... he had long experienced these without any true pain.

Because who else but him brought misfortune.

Chuzheng’s paw nudged him.

Shang Qi lowered his eyes to look at her: ”I’m fine, no need to worry.”

Chuzheng looked at him with skepticism, you don’t seem fine.

Shang Qi spoke no more, simply petted her and set her down: ”Let me have a moment to myself, okay?”

He didn’t treat Chuzheng like a cat, as if she was a person, seeking her opinion.

Chuzheng hesitated for a moment before staying still.

”Thank you.”

Shang Qi’s fingertips touched her briefly, then he pushed open the study door and entered, leaving it slightly ajar.

Chuzheng stood in the hallway, looked at the study door, then outside, and after several seconds, ran towards an open window, leapt nimbly out, disappearing into the dark.

-

Chuzheng returned to the manor but hadn’t entered yet when she heard the eerie sound of a piano cutting through the night, giving it an ominous feel.

Chuzheng’s little heart raced wildly, with a bad intuition, she quickly dashed inside.

Xiao Si was rushing upstairs, and Chuzheng immediately followed behind.

However, when they reached the music room, the piano music had already stopped.

Xiao Si sighed, turning back down the stairs.

Chuzheng: ”???”
