"Pfft!" Ling Ziqian spat out a mouthful of blood. How did this get to marriage?

The three men standing outside the door, hearing that something was wrong inside, all pushed the door open and came in.

In an instant, the whole room erupted into chaos.

Huan Yue excitedly shouted that this was a battleground or something.

After making a scene all afternoon, they stayed for dinner before leaving.

For the next few days, Ling Ziqian didn't go to school, and the cake shop didn't operate either, because the police kept knocking on the door.

As for Shen Qiaoyan's mother, Bai Yuqin, she is probably verifying the authenticity of the information, so she hasn't taken any action yet.

During this time, Xue Lan called Ling Ziqian, saying that Chen Mailong's company had been swindled out of one million yuan, and the whole company was now in chaos.

Upon hearing this news, Ling Ziqian chuckled; the million was hidden under his bed.

Ling Ziqian was a little worried. What would Chen Mailong do if he discovered that the safe had been stolen?

On Saturday, Ling Ziqian learned the answer: Chen Mailong had fled to another city and planned to leave the country.

Just as he was going through security, the police appeared and handcuffed him on charges of murder and drug trafficking.

The incident of him being beaten at Shilian Middle School was immediately overshadowed by this explosive news...

Chapter 139 I'll test you, how about it?

Chen Mailong's arrest implicated his family's company, causing quite a stir.

The matter of Ling Ziqian assaulting Chen Mailong was simply dropped, like a children's fight.

A few days later, Yu Meiren Cake Shop reopened for business.

Dou Xiaorong whiled away the time in the cake shop.

Xuelan led Cui Xue to play at the cake shop.

Even though her family owns a supermarket, Su Mingxi still works part-time at the cake shop.

Ling Ziqian, who should have been in the cake shop, appeared at the Su family supermarket instead.

"Okay, don't buy it anymore. My parents and grandpa don't like to eat those things. It's good that you're so kind."

Shen Qiaoyan stood to the side, her hands behind her back, somewhat resentful of Ling Ziqian, but a smile played on her lips.

Ling Ziqian put various gifts from the shelf into the trolley, which was almost full.

Because he helped Shen Qiaoyan with her studies, Ling Ziqian made an agreement with her that he would have to eat at her house.

These past two days, their family has helped me solve a problem, and I need to go and thank them in person.

Whether you're visiting someone's home for a meal or to express your gratitude, you'll need to bring a gift.

Urged on by Shen Qiaoyan, Ling Ziqian pushed the cart to the counter to pay.

At the counter, Su's mother scanned and bagged the package, but refused to accept Ling Ziqian's money.

Ling Ziqian left five hundred yuan and left with his things.

I left the supermarket and walked towards the riverside residential area.

Throughout the journey, Shen Qiaoyan giggled, lively and excited. "Master, I feel like I'm going back to my parents' home!"

Ling Ziqian, exasperated, complained to her, "What's it like going back to your parents' home?"

"I don't know." Shen Qiaoyan shook her head, looking at Ling Ziqian carrying bags and bags of gifts, and exclaimed again, "Actually, it's more like he's taking his boyfriend home to meet his parents!"

Ling Ziqian collapsed to the ground. It was hard to tell if this guy was joking or subtly hinting at something.

"Master, have you ever gone to a girl's house like this?" Shen Qiaoyan asked curiously.

"What do you mean by 'like this'?" Ling Ziqian didn't understand.

"Carrying big bags and small bags!"

"No."

Shen Qiaoyan laughed excitedly again, like a child welcoming the New Year.

Enter the residential area and go upstairs.

Shen Qiaoyan didn't use the key to open the door; instead, she rang the doorbell.

Bai Yuqin opened the door and saw the quirky Shen Qiaoyan. She pinched Shen Qiaoyan's cheek in an annoyed manner.

Upon seeing Ling Ziqian, she flashed a warm smile, "Ziqian, you're here!"

"Yes, Auntie, I apologize for bothering you," Ling Ziqian greeted politely.

"What do you mean by disturbing me? From now on, treat this place as your own home and come whenever you want!" Bai Yuqin took the gift from Ling Ziqian's hand and ordered Shen Qiaoyan to get Ling Ziqian slippers.

After changing his shoes, Ling Ziqian walked into the living room and immediately felt awkward.

There were guests in the living room: Shen Qiaoyan's father, Shen Guomin, was sitting on the sofa with a middle-aged man with single eyelids.

"Dad, I brought Master back!" Shen Qiaoyan shouted loudly.

"Oh, Ziqian, you're here. You've come at the right time. We were just talking about you." Shen Guomin smiled at Ling Ziqian.

He had a good impression of Ling Ziqian, after all, Ling Ziqian had helped him solve the problem of Shen Qiaoyan's studies.

Hearing Shen Guomin say this, Shen Qiaoyan asked curiously, "Dad, what did you say about Master to Uncle Zhang?"

"You'll find out soon enough. Hurry up and pour Ziqian some tea."

"Oh."

Ling Ziqian sat awkwardly on the sofa. He was a homebody and didn't have much to talk about with people his own age, let alone with two middle-aged men.

He subconsciously took out his phone to play with it, with no intention of talking to them.

Shen Qiaoyan poured Ling Ziqian a cup of tea and sat on the armrest of the sofa next to him.

Shen Guomin pointed to the middle-aged man with single eyelids and introduced him, "Ziqian, this is Professor Zhang Hua, the youngest professor in our school. He came here specifically for you."

Ling Ziqian nodded, which was considered a greeting.

"Uncle Zhang, are you interested in Master?" Shen Qiaoyan asked with a smile, happy for Ling Ziqian, as a university professor was interested in him.

"..." Ling Ziqian was not happy at all, and he couldn't explain why.

"It's because of you that I'm interested in Ziqian. He's the one who helped you solve your problem of not being able to study!" Zhang Hua, with his single eyelids, said with a smile.

Ling Ziqian's heart skipped a beat. He immediately thought of how, after Dou Xiaorong successfully lost weight, she attracted people from weight loss websites who were eyeing the so-called weight loss potion.

Professor Zhang Hua is likely after the potion that enables people to learn!

Sure enough, after saying a few unimportant words, Zhang Hua, who had single eyelids, brought up the matter.

"Ziqian, I heard that you bought a kind of potion from abroad and gave it to Qiaoyan, and then Qiaoyan was able to study again, right?"

"Mmm-hmm." Shen Qiaoyan nodded first, "Master poured the medicine into the milk, and after I drank the milk, my mind became completely clear!"

Shen Qiaoyan's words made Zhang Hua smile broadly, while Ling Ziqian's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Ling Ziqian crossed his arms and subtly reached out to touch Shen Qiaoyan.

Shen Qiaoyan was sitting on a relatively high armrest. Ling Ziqian touched her thigh, and she blushed a little, not knowing what Ling Ziqian was doing. She subtly pinched Ling Ziqian hard as a form of retaliation.

Ling Ziqian was speechless, enduring the pain, and said to Zhang Hua, "Actually, there is no such thing as medicine."

These words left Zhang Hua and Shen Qiaoyan speechless.

The old man who had just returned from outside was stunned when he heard Ling Ziqian say those words.

Seemingly thinking of something, he didn't speak, but sat down on the sofa with a smile.

Shen Qiaoyan looked at Ling Ziqian in disbelief, "Master, are you saying I didn't drink the potion? Then how come I did so well on the previous monthly exam?"

Ling Ziqian rolled his eyes. "Who knows what kind of incredible luck you had!"

Shen Qiaoyan was speechless. She felt that Ling Ziqian was saying such things on purpose. She was angry and pinched Ling Ziqian again.

Ling Ziqian looked at Shen Guomin, "Uncle, I heard you took Shen Qiaoyan to the hospital for a checkup, but they couldn't find anything, right?"

Shen Guomin nodded. "The examination that night was almost identical to the previous ones."

With the evidence in hand, Ling Ziqian chuckled, "You're all university professors. If someone ingests medicine or something, you should be able to detect it through testing, right?"

Shen Guomin laughed, "Hearing Ziqian say that, I suddenly understand why we couldn't find anything back then, because Qiaoyan didn't drink the medicine at all."

Zhang Hua refused to believe it, "Then tell me, how did you get Qiaoyan to be able to study?"

Bai Yuqin came out of the kitchen and looked at Ling Ziqian.

Everyone was curious about this question; they didn't believe Ling Ziqian's claim of pure luck.

Shen Qiaoyan's situation has troubled this family for over a decade.

It was unbelievable that a young man could solve a problem that even experts and professors couldn't.

How should Ling Ziqian answer this question? He had a bit of a headache.

Unable to think of a good reason, he could only lie through his teeth, "A while ago, Shen Qiaoyan kept coming to my house, and every time she went there, I tutored her."

Sitting to the side, Shen Qiaoyan was somewhat confused, unable to understand why Ling Ziqian lied.

She used to spend most of her time at the cake shop playing with Dou Xiaorong and the others; there was no tutoring there.

Ling Ziqian secretly nudged Shen Qiaoyan's thigh again.

Thighs are an extremely sensitive area. Shen Qiaoyan shifted her position, blushing slightly. She understood what Ling Ziqian meant; he was telling her not to expose his lie!

"How did you tutor Qiaoyan? How did you help her remember the knowledge of each subject?" Zhang Hua pressed for an answer.

"Her biggest weakness is that she can't remember things, so I devised a memory method for her!" Ling Ziqian said seriously, as if it were a real thing.

Shen Qiaoyan was speechless. She couldn't stand listening to him, but she was also extremely curious as to why Ling Ziqian would lie.

She secretly reached out, wanting to pinch Ling Ziqian, but this time, her hand was caught by Ling Ziqian.

My parents were right there, and he was actually grabbing my hand!

Shen Qiaoyan immediately blushed and panicked.

Unseen by others, the two teenagers were secretly pulling and tugging at each other.
