The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126: 123 The top student of the whole school is about to change [1 more update]

Hearing this, Ying Zijin slightly lifted her eyelids, though her eyes remained half-closed.

Being half asleep, she didn’t notice the striking beauty before her.

She seemed to seriously consider the possibility of his statement for a moment before deciding that this way, she wouldn’t have to move.

So, Ying Zijin reluctantly made a gesture, raising her hand.

With a tone weary and perfunctory, flat and monotonous, as if discussing the weather for the day.

“Oh, then you carry me.”

“…”

Fu Yunshen’s expression paused, and he slowly lowered his head.

He hadn’t expected this response at all.

Talking like this, he assumed the kid would definitely get up and then go upstairs to sleep.

After all, he was just joking.

Even though he saw the girl as a kid, she was almost an adult, and there should still be a distance maintained between men and women.

But who knew she would actually agree, just to avoid walking.

Well, it’s also possible that the kid didn’t regard him as a man at all.

That’s why she was so at ease letting him carry her.

Fu Yunshen looked at the girl nestled in the front passenger seat, feeling a mix of amusement and annoyance for the first time.

“Yaoyao, be good,” he said as he bent down to pull her out, “Get up, go to sleep upstairs; it’s just a few steps. How can you sleep in a car?”

“I think it’s quite nice.”

“…”

Another failed communication.

Fu Yunshen lowered his voice, speaking more slowly, “You want to sleep here? What if you catch a cold?”

Ying Zijin didn’t speak.

She wore an expression that read “don’t disturb my sleep.”

“…”

Fine, he no longer even had the right to communicate.

Fu Yunshen said nothing further, bending down to lift the girl out of the car, then placed her on his back.

To preserve the young friend’s reputation, carrying her in his arms wouldn’t do, but a piggyback ride was still acceptable.

It was his own doing, spoiling her, so he had to endure the consequences.

It was indeed tiring.

Thankfully, there was just this one kid.

To prevent Ying Zijin from falling, Fu Yunshen lightly gripped her small legs with his hands, his eyelashes casting downwards.

She was a bit light.

He wondered where all the food he fed her had gone, as it didn’t seem to add to her weight.

After locking the car, Fu Yunshen carried the girl upstairs.

This was a six-story residential building without elevators, given its older construction.

However, to make it convenient for Wen Fengmian to come and go, Ying Zijin had purchased a third-floor apartment.

The stairwell was very quiet, so silent that one could hear a steady heartbeat.

Fu Yunshen turned his head slightly.

The girl’s chin rested on his shoulder, and whenever she tilted her head, her cheek brushed against his neck.

A softness that belonged solely to the girl.

Fu Yunshen diverted his gaze, releasing one of the hands supporting her to straighten her head.

But it wouldn’t be long before it would slump over again.

A hazy breath enveloped him, akin to an elusive fragrance wafting through the air.

Just a few floors up, Fu Yunshen deeply felt that this was more arduous than navigating bullet storms in a no-man’s land.

Fortunately, with only three floors, the ordeal was over.

Fu Yunshen then set Ying Zijin down from his back, steadying her with one hand to prevent her from falling.

With his other hand, he knocked on the door.

The person who came to open the door, Wen Tinglan, saw this scene and hesitated, “What happened to my sister?”

“She was too tired and fell asleep,” Fu Yunshen nodded, “I’ll take her to the bedroom.”

Although Zhong Corporation won the bet this time and recovered the Ten Directions Realm, the storm had not passed yet.

Taking advantage of the situation, Old Master Zhong cleaned up Zhong Corporation’s internal affairs with an iron fist. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

All shareholders who had other intentions or even planned to collude with outsiders to seize Zhong Corporation’s shares were ousted.

Naturally, the process wouldn’t have been so swift, as these shareholders normally hid their intentions very well.

However, with DK Corporation’s overwhelming approach, they all believed Zhong Corporation would definitely lose, which is when they revealed their true colors.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Corporation not only emerged unscathed from this impact but even rose to a higher level.

The remorseful shareholders went as far as kneeling to beg for Old Master Zhong’s forgiveness, to no avail.

After intimidating Zhong Corporation, Old Master Zhong personally visited the Yi Character Team’s facility where Zhong Tianyun was detained.

Having been there for less than ten days, Zhong Tianyun had already lost his former grandeur.

His complexion was wan and his eyes lifeless.

The Yi Character Team certainly didn’t mistreat him; his daily meals included chicken legs and fish fillets.

But Zhong Tianyun himself was too aggrieved to eat and could only manage to drink water.
