After nine lifetimes of reincarnation, the yandere villainous heroine descends.
Chapter 272 A Young Girl's Thoughts
The night was as still as water, and the bright moonlight spilled onto the streets of Jinjiang District, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
In this tranquil setting, a villa is brightly lit.
Inside the villa's lobby, two figures sat facing each other under the dazzling lights.
One of them was tall and had a straight posture like a pine tree. His black suit made him look even more dignified and solemn.
The other person was rather thin, dressed in a white long robe, and appeared refined and handsome.
"I often hear Siqi mention Shen Xiaoyou, but I'm usually too busy with company affairs to meet him. Now that I've met him, he is indeed a handsome and talented man."
Chu Tianxiong looked Shen Shuchou up with piercing eyes and said with a smile.
Shen Shuchou knew that Chu Tianxiong was just being polite, so he replied, "You flatter me."
His voice was neither arrogant nor humble, and he wore a modest smile.
"That's not true. My daughter Siqi lost her mother when she was young. She has a very withdrawn personality and has never had any friends her own age. As her father, I am very worried about her."
Chu Tianxiong sighed softly.
His eyes revealed deep helplessness and guilt, his brows furrowed slightly, and his expression appeared somewhat forlorn.
Shen Shuchou's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't speak. He knew nothing about Chu Siqi's matter.
"I'm usually very busy with work, so I don't pay much attention to her and I don't know much about the relationships between Siqi and others."
Chu Tianxiong continued, his voice growing increasingly low and filled with deep self-reproach.
"Now that Siqi has you as a friend, I am very relieved. I hope that you and Siqi can stay in touch more often in the future."
Chu Tianxiong looked at Shen Shuchou with anticipation and earnestness in his eyes.
Chu Tianxiong made a special effort to personally invite Shen Shuchou today.
Firstly, he wanted to meet this mysterious boy; secondly, he wanted to help Siqi improve their relationship.
"Chu Siqi and I are classmates, and so far we have only exchanged ideas on cultivation. The time we spend together and the level of understanding we have is still relatively limited."
Shen Shuchou remained calm and spoke slowly, seemingly stating an objective fact, but in reality, he subtly indicated that his relationship with Chu Siqi was ordinary.
Upon hearing this!
Chu Tianxiong sighed inwardly again! He could tell from these words that the young man's mind was not on his Siqi, and the smile on his face froze slightly.
Looking at Shen Shuchou's calm expression, Chu Tianxiong couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. His daughter was so good, how could she not be worthy of his affection?
But this was just a fleeting thought in Chu Tianxiong's mind.
After all, as a father, how could he not feel heartbroken seeing Chu Siqi's unrequited love?
That was heartache for her daughter, and helplessness in the face of the current situation.
"Regardless, I hope you will be lenient with me in general. Siqi is not a bad person at heart."
Chu Tianxiong's words already carried a hint of losing face.
"If you encounter any difficulties, I will certainly lend a helping hand."
Chu Tianxiong continued.
Shen Shuchou sighed inwardly, but before he could say anything, footsteps sounded from the other side.
blah blah blah!
The crisp sound of footsteps rang out instantly at the top of the stairs.
Looking back, I saw Chu Siqi's petite figure slowly walking towards me.
Chu Siqi was wearing a light pink evening gown, the skirt of which was as light and flowing as a blooming flower.
Her exposed skin was as white as snow, gleaming with a captivating glow under the light. A cascade of black hair flowed smoothly down her back, swaying gently with her steps like flowing black silk.
Her delicate features were like a meticulously sculpted work of art, especially her bright eyes, which shone like stars in the night sky, dazzling and captivating.
"What are you talking about?"
Chu Siqi came to the two of them and said.
Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain spring flowing through the air. She wore a sweet smile and her eyes were full of curiosity.
"Haha, we didn't talk about anything, but my Siqi, why are you dressed so beautifully?"
Chu Tianxiong's eyes immediately revealed a hint of doting affection.
"No way!"
In Chu Siqi's mind, this was the first time Shen Shuchou had come to her home, and they were having dinner together, so naturally she had to dress up nicely.
Chu Siqi pouted, her coquettish expression was exceptionally cute, and she secretly glanced at Shen Shuchou beside her.
Seeing that Shen Shuchou's gaze was not on her, she immediately bit her lip, a wave of disappointment washing over her.
This subtle scene naturally did not escape Chu Tianxiong's eyes.
He then said, "I happen to have some company business to take care of upstairs. You two chat."
After Chu Tianxiong finished speaking, he strode away from the place, and his figure quickly disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
As I climbed the stairs to the second floor, I saw another person emerge from a corner.
This man was none other than Chu Tianxiong's personal retainer, Peng Ping.
"How about it! Can you see anything in him?"
Chu Tianxiong said calmly.
He was not a cultivator and could not see anything special about Shen Shuchou.
Therefore, he had Peng Ping hide on the second floor in advance to facilitate observation.
Peng Ping shook his head and said, "This boy is as calm as a stagnant pool. I didn't sense anything special about him, but my cultivator's intuition tells me that he is dangerous."
Chu Tianxiong frowned upon hearing this and said, "Since he doesn't have any cultivation, where does the sense of danger come from?"
His tone was filled with doubt and confusion, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
"Could it be that you didn't notice because his cultivation level is higher than yours?"
Chu Tianxiong continued, his gaze fixed on Peng Ping.
"That's absolutely impossible. If this child wanted to remain completely undetected, his cultivation level would have to be at least at the Nascent Soul stage. Even if he started cultivating from the womb, it would be impossible for him to reach the Nascent Soul stage at this age."
Peng Ping immediately denied it.
Now that the spiritual energy on Earth is recovering rapidly, Golden Core cultivators, who were once rare, are now a dime a dozen.
Even in the Nascent Soul realm, several people have achieved such a powerful level since Su Changkong.
Although Peng Ping has not yet reached the Nascent Soul Realm, he is still a Golden Core cultivator. That's why he said that if Shen Shuchou wanted to completely hide himself from him, he would at least need to be at the Nascent Soul Realm, and even then, at the Great Perfection stage.
"At this point, only one thing can be said: the dangerous intuition this boy gives me comes from a mysterious force behind him, and an extraordinary one at that."
Peng Ping said.
Chu Tianxiong frowned even more deeply. He had previously suspected that Shen Shuchou had a powerful force behind him, but that was just speculation.
Now that Peng Ping has said this, I am even more convinced of this idea.
"Siqi! How could you fall for such an unknown and dangerous person?"
Chu Tianxiong murmured to himself.
Downstairs, with Chu Tianxiong gone, Chu Siqi sat down in front of Shen Shuchou.
The girl's delicate fragrance permeated the air, like a gentle spring breeze, and entered Shen Shuchou's nose.
"You big idiot Shen! Why aren't you replying to my messages?"
Chu Siqi stared intently at Shen Shuchou's profile with her beautiful eyes.
Her eyes were filled with anger and grievance.
"I haven't seen the message."
Shen Shuchou's answer was simple and straightforward, and his expression remained calm and composed.
"You promised me you wouldn't ignore me."
Chu Siqi pursed her pink lips and said.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Shen Shuchou had no choice but to say, "I'll see now, okay?"
As he spoke, he slowly picked up his phone and gently tapped the chat window between the two of them.
The screen displayed 99 unread messages, a number that immediately gave Shen Shuchou a headache.
He glanced at Chu Siqi subconsciously, but Chu Siqi had already eagerly poked her small head over, her beautiful eyes fixed on the phone screen.
When Chu Siqi realized that Shen Shuchou hadn't read a single one, her eyes dimmed slightly, and her originally bright eyes instantly lost their luster.
Shen Shuchou lightly tapped the screen with his slender fingers, and the messages appeared one by one.
The content mostly consisted of Chu Siqi sending him warm greetings like "Good morning" and "Good night."
She then shared in detail with Shen Shuchou how she felt that day, what delicious food she ate for dinner, and what wonderful dreams she had last night.
Shen Shuchou casually scrolled through the messages, but as he did so, he suddenly came across this particular message.
Chu Siqi: "I miss you, you big idiot Shen. Please give me some time. I will definitely protect you and not let those bad women bully you."
A single line of text reveals the girl's innermost thoughts.
Shen Shuchou immediately glanced to the side and saw that Chu Siqi had turned her head away and was not saying a word.
Her slender shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was trying her best to suppress her inner emotions.
Shen Shuchou sighed inwardly, but continued scrolling down without making a sound, his finger slowly sliding across the screen.
Until I scrolled to the last message, which was sent this morning, it only contained the two short words "Good morning".
These days, Chu Siqi has always been like this. Even though Shen Shuchou didn't see the messages, there wasn't a single complaint among the dense messages.
She quietly shared the details of her life, conveying her sincere and pure emotions.
Shen Shuchou gently swiped his finger across the chat window on his phone.
Immediately afterwards, a special notification sound rang from the phone next to Chu Siqi.
Chu Siqi instinctively reached for her phone, but then remembered that Shen Shuchou was right next to her.
Chu Siqi immediately put her hand down again. Shen Shuchou hadn't even looked at one of her messages, yet she was so anxious when the notification sound for his message rang.
Hmph! I don't want to watch.
Chu Siqi sneered inwardly.
Shen Shuchou didn't care whether she looked or not. Just then, Chu Tianxiong came downstairs again.
Accompanying them were the servants, who slowly walked in carrying various dishes.
Seeing this, Shen Shuchou didn't stay idle either, and got up from the sofa to help.
In that brief moment, Chu Siqi secretly picked up her phone and quickly opened Shen Shuchou's chat window.
The latest news section contains three words.
good evening!
Looking at these three ordinary words, Chu Siqi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sweet smile.
For Chu Siqi, what mattered was not the specific content of Shen Shuchou's message, but the act of sending it itself.
Chu Siqi immediately followed suit and went to help.
With everyone working together, all the dishes were served quickly.
"I don't know if this meal will suit your taste."
Chu Tianxiong said with a smile.
"You're too kind!"
Shen Shuchou responded.
All he wanted to do at that moment was finish the meal as soon as possible; there were people waiting for him at home.
At the dinner table, Chu Tianxiong mostly asked questions, and Shen Shuchou answered, but they were all trivial matters.
As for Chu Siqi, she listened to the conversation between the two, her eyes never leaving Shen Shuchou.
This scene immediately stirred a pang of sadness in Chu Tianxiong's heart.
The girl never had a big appetite, and Chu Siqi was full after eating only a little bit.
Normally, she would have already put down her chopsticks and gone upstairs.
But with Shen Shuchou around today, Chu Siqi acted like a servant, constantly putting food into Shen Shuchou's bowl.
This made Chu Tianxiong's eyelids twitch wildly, and the bitterness in his heart deepened.
Before we knew it, the meal was over.
Shen Shuchou did not linger, declined Chu Tianxiong's offer to see him off, and left Jinjiang District alone by taxi.
Chu Tianxiong watched Shen Shuchou's disappearing figure with a calm expression, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.
He didn't take the opportunity to ask Shen Shuchou about his background, since it was their first meeting and asking such questions would be inappropriate.
There will eventually be opportunities to continue our contact in the future, and we can discuss it further then.
Chu Tianxiong glanced at her and turned to leave, only to find that Chu Siqi was still standing there motionless.
"Stop looking, they're all gone," Chu Tianxiong said with a heavy heart.
"Dad! You go inside first, I'll be right back."
A gentle night breeze blew by, carrying a cool sensation. Chu Siqi sniffed her delicate nose and said...
"Sigh! Now that my daughter is grown up, her heart is no longer with me," Chu Tianxiong sighed.
"Dad! What did you say?" Chu Siqi said reproachfully.
