Chen Qian couldn't believe that the guy in front of her was actually a high school student!

It feels like my worldview has been turned upside down.

She couldn't believe it. She couldn't accept it all at once.

"I'm going to the restroom."

"Ah."

After watching Chen Qian enter the restroom, Ling Ziqian got up and went to pay the bill.

When Chen Qian came out of the bathroom, she did not see Ling Ziqian.

She assumed Ling Ziqian had gone to the restroom, so she sat at the dining table waiting for him.

However, after waiting for quite a while, Ling Ziqian still did not appear.

When Chen Qian went to the counter to ask the clerk, she learned that Ling Ziqian had already paid and left.

She hurriedly left the breakfast shop and stood on the bustling street, but couldn't find Ling Ziqian anywhere.

She returned to the breakfast shop dejectedly and sat down in the same spot she had just been.

He's helped me so much, and I haven't even properly thanked him yet.

Chen Qian was eating breakfast when her phone rang; it was an unknown number calling.

She thought it was Ling Ziqian calling, but it turned out to be someone from the administration department of Tianhuo Group, informing Chen Qian to come to work tomorrow.

Ling Ziqian leisurely returned home and was overjoyed to see Yu Meiren and Cupid, as if he had won the lottery.

"You're back!" Yu Meiren said with a smile, showing Ling Ziqian a silver combination lock box.

"Did you buy a suitcase?" Ling Ziqian asked, puzzled.

Yu Meiren shook her head. "No, this is something Secretary Hua just brought over to thank you."

Looking at the silver combination lock box, Ling Ziqian felt a chill run down his spine. In movies, those combination lock boxes usually contained stacks of money.

To express her gratitude, would Mother Fire send over a box of money?

"I'm going to open it now!" Yu Meiren said with a grin, dialing the combination lock on the safe.

"Did Secretary Hua say anything? This is too outrageous!" Ling Ziqian stood aside, looking forward to seeing a box of money.

After Yu Meiren entered the password, before she could even move, the silver briefcase automatically popped open.

Is it automatic?

A big, white teddy bear jumped out of the box.

Cupid chuckled, opened her arms, and hugged the teddy bear tightly!

It's a miracle that such a small box didn't burst when such a large teddy bear was stuffed inside.

Besides the teddy bear, there were also some jewelry pieces in the box, which made Yu Meiren extremely excited.

So this is a jewelry box!

Ling Ziqian's face darkened. He had been busy for two days, and the Fire Mother had thanked the wrong person, hadn't she?

"Is this for you?" Yu Meiren took out a bank card from the box.

"Hmm." He hadn't forgotten me. Ling Ziqian smiled and reached out to take the bank card.

But Yu Meiren revealed a sly smile, "There's probably a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand in there. You're just a high school student, you don't need that much money. I'll keep it for you, and you can take it out when you go to college and get married!"

Ling Ziqian was speechless; it was that same excuse again.

"Looks like you handled things very well. Here, let me give you a kiss!" Yu Meiren leaned over and kissed Ling Ziqian's cheek.

"Hehe." Ling Ziqian scratched his head sheepishly and looked at Cupid.

Cupid blushed and buried her head in the teddy bear's arms, pretending not to see Ling Ziqian.

Let's give the bank card to Yu Meiren. After all, I got a bank card with 300,000 yuan when I came back from Tianhai City last time!

Yu Meiren carried the jewelry box and skipped upstairs like a young girl, putting the jewelry in her room.

Ling Ziqian looked at Cupid Sauce and asked, "Miss, shall we leave now and go to the amusement park?"

"Let's go again this afternoon!" Cupid blushed, avoiding eye contact with Ling Ziqian.

“Okay.” Ling Ziqian didn’t object. He was a little surprised that this guy blushed so easily.

Huan Yue chuckled, "Even Cupid can fall in love!"

Ling Ziqian was instantly petrified. "You don't mean, Cupid-chan, she, she..."

"What nonsense are you thinking? There are many kinds of love. Cupid would never fall for a virgin like you. She must feel at home here. You're the older brother, and she's the younger sister. What younger sister wouldn't blush and feel shy?"

Ling Ziqian was speechless after hearing Huan Yue's explanation.

Since Cupid said we'd go to the amusement park in the afternoon, then we'll go in the afternoon.

Sitting behind the counter, Ling Ziqian took out his textbook and flipped through it. The exam was in two days, and if his grades dropped, it would be embarrassing.

The morning flew by.

After lunch, Yu Meiren went into her room for a nap. Cupid, carrying a teddy bear, sneakily walked downstairs and waved to Ling Ziqian.

At this moment, Cupid was quite amusing, and Ling Ziqian couldn't help but laugh.

Just as the two were about to close the shop and sneak off to the amusement park, Cui Xue unexpectedly arrived.

She doesn't seem to have come here to play with Cupid.

Upon seeing Ling Ziqian, she threw herself into his arms.

Cui Xue, nestled in Ling Ziqian's arms, shrugged as if she were sobbing.

Ling Ziqian was moved and surprised. Was this girl crying? Who bullied her?

"Brother, sob sob, will you be my boyfriend and marry me?" Cui Xue raised her head, her cheeks still wet with tears, looking pitiful.

Ling Ziqian didn't pay attention to that remark. What worried him was who had bullied the girl. "Xiaoxue, why are you crying?"

"Waaah, a man wants to take me away, I don't want to go! Brother, marry me, and I'll come live with you!"

Chapter 218 This is a really melodramatic thing!

A man wants to take Cui Xue away!

This is a big deal!

Ling Ziqian looked at the girl nervously, "Did you tell your mother about this? Did you meet that man on the street? Did he threaten you?"

Cui Xue shook her head, crying, "That man said he was my father!"

"Huh?" Ling Ziqian was dumbfounded.

"Hehe." Cupid-chan laughed from the side.

Does Dad mean that Cui Xue's father has appeared?

Ling Ziqian remembered that when they went to Cui Qiuzhen's house for dinner, Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi guessed that Cui Qiuzhen had given birth out of wedlock when she was in college.

In other words, that irresponsible guy showed up and wanted to take Cui Xue away?

Seeing Cui Xue crying, Ling Ziqian didn't know what to do, so he could only pat her head.

Just then, Yu Meiren's voice came from upstairs, "Teacher Cui called and asked if Xiaoxue had arrived, and if Xiaoxue was there."

“Sister Beauty, I’m here,” Cui Xue mumbled in reply.

"Then I'll tell her, so she won't worry."

Ling Ziqian took out his phone and called Xue Lan to ask if she knew about this.

The girl was quite frightened, and she still knows about it at school.

After hanging up the phone, Ling Ziqian looked at the crying Cui Xue. Cui Qiuzhen couldn't possibly have sent her away, could she?

"Okay, stop crying." Ling Ziqian reached out and wiped the tears from Cui Xue's cheeks. "Teacher Cui won't send you away. Don't worry."

"But, but I'm so scared, boohoo..."

"What are you afraid of? If that person tries to take you away, I'll snatch you back!"

"Really? After you get me back, will you marry me?"

"..." Ling Ziqian sighed and gently stroked Cui Xue's head. He changed the subject, "Xiao Ai and I are going to the amusement park, why don't you come along?"

"Mmm, hee hee!" Cui Xue burst into laughter through her tears upon hearing that they were going to the amusement park.

As they walked out together, Cupid pouted slightly, dissatisfied with Ling Ziqian's decision, but she didn't say anything.

Meanwhile, Xue Lan learned about Cui Xue's father's appearance and stormed home from school!

As Xue Lan pushed open the door and entered the house, she could clearly sense that Cui Qiuzhen was startled by her.

"Cousin, what happened? Has Xiaoxue's father arrived?" Xuelan asked anxiously.

“Xiaoxue has no father.” Cui Qiuzhen’s face was very pale.

"What exactly happened?" Xue Lan asked, somewhat frightened by Cui Qiuzhen's pale face.

"Didn't you say you weren't coming back for dinner, but were going to ask a law professor about your lawsuit?" Zong Zhumukang.

Cui Qiuzhen asked Xue Lan a question as she walked into the kitchen.

Xue Lan smiled and followed Cui Qiuzhen into the kitchen.

The two were preparing lunch in the kitchen when the doorbell suddenly rang.

Xue Lan was about to open the door, but Cui Qiuzhen, with a dark face, yelled at her not to go.

"Why not open it? Could it be that... that person has arrived?"

"..."

Cui Qiuzhen didn't speak, but Xue Lan couldn't suppress her curiosity. She left the kitchen and went to the living room door, looking through the peephole at the outside.

There wasn't a man standing outside the door, but two girls.

Xue Lan opened the door with a puzzled look, and the two girls immediately walked in excitedly!
