In the room.

Qin Yiyi casually threw the gift box on the side table, bent down to change her shoes, and walked over.

She only glanced at the gift and raised her eyebrows.

A little dress?

Why did he give her a dress for no reason?

She only glanced at it and then moved her eyes away.

After thinking for a moment, she took out her phone and opened WeChat to send a question mark over.

The WeChat user with only one business word was almost waiting for her message.

Instantly, she received a reply. “Did you like the dress? If you don’t like it, I’ll get someone to change it for you.”

Anyway, there were plenty of design and clothing brands!

Her fingertips paused on the phone screen, and she typed a few more words out of curiosity. “Why did you give me a dress?”

The other party’s reply was very simple. “Your birthday present.”

Her birthday…

After a pause, she lightly typed a line of words. “I don’t celebrate birthdays.”

Then, she threw her phone to the side and got up to change her clothes. She rummaged through the ingredients in the fridge and made a simple dinner.

After the meal, she put away the bowls and chopsticks.

After the kitchen was cleaned, she went to study.

She opened her laptop, and after a moment of hesitation, she opened a website. She looked at the four red words, ‘welcome back, as always.’

Qin Yiyi was slightly stunned. A faint smile flashed across her eyes. It was a feeling that she had not felt for a long time.

However, the next moment, she looked at the scene of a cartoon bunny girl dancing after a shower of flowers with the music of ‘welcome back’.

Qin Yiyi looked at the dancing movements of the charming cartoon girl on the screen.

She could not help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

In her previous life, didn’t she have such a silly and stupid brain?

She raised her hand and chose a hidden item, decisively turning off the dancing scene on the screen.

As her fingertips floated up and down on the keyboard, the screen on the computer froze on a forum.

Soon, someone noticed her appearance. An active person quickly sent a private message to greet her.

“Hey, Bunny is online. Hello, Bunny.”

“Bunny, you’re finally online.”

There were some earlier messages asking her if she was online and when she was online.

After flipping through them, there were a total of 100 messages.

She directly ignored them and poked one of the people on her friend list.

“Allen, help me purchase these few things.”

After sending the things she needed, her fingertips paused for a moment before she added another two words.

“Urgent use.”

Allen should not be around.

Qin Yiyi waited for five minutes before she directly chose to log off.

What she did not know was that almost at the same time that she logged off, a few messages from Allen quickly popped up,

”

“Bunny, Bunny, where are you?”

“Bunny, Bunny, these are all medicinal herbs, and two of them are almost extinct. Even if there really is a price, it is not an ordinary high...”

“Bunny...”

On the other side of the ocean, a certain young man angrily slammed the table a few times.

‘This damned girl!’

Although he was angry, after he calmed down, he sat on the chair and started to worry.

‘These few medicinal herbs…’

‘Forget it, forget it. What’s the point of thinking so much? If that girl wants them, then I’ll help her!’

After closing the computer and doing a few more pages of questions, Qin Yiyi looked at the time and saw that it was already 10 o’clock. She stretched her back and stood up.

She washed up and changed into her pajamas.

Qin Yiyi, who was about to go to bed, suddenly remembered that she hadn’t looked at her phone for a while.

She held it in her hand and realized that it had been muted at some point.

There were more than ten missed calls and dozens of unanswered messages.

All of them came from one person, Shang Jiuying.

Her gaze swept over the dress in the corner of the table not far away. The image of Shang Jiuying’s body floated in her mind.

She frowned slightly and pressed the call button on her phone with her fingertips.

Almost as soon as the call was made, it was as if the other party had been waiting by the phone. Shang Jiuying’s low voice immediately rang out. “Yiyi.”

Qin Yiyi’s mind was focused on whether or not his body condition had gone awry, so she naturally did not notice the other party’s address. When she heard Shang Jiuying’s voice, she was slightly relieved. However, she could not see his expression through the phone. She thought for a while and opened her mouth to ask, “Are you alright?”

“I... I was a little uncomfortable just now, but I’m fine now.”

The moment the words left her mouth, Shang Jiuying understood the meaning of the little girl on the opposite side of the phone.

She must have thought that he was not feeling well, so she called to check up on him, right?

Originally, he should have said that he was fine.

He was indeed very well.

Ever since the onset of the illness on the last full moon night, he had taken a pill every day according to Qin Yiyi’s words.

Although the effect was minimal, it was indeed effective!

In the past, the world’s top experts, professors, and even people from the ancient medicine world that he had invited were all helpless!

But this little girl’s medicine was effective on him!

Shang Jiuying didn’t know if Qin Yiyi knew, but he knew clearly in his heart.

If this matter were to spread, the impact would be huge!

Moreover, it was highly likely that it would bring danger to Qin Yiyi’s life.

Shang Jiuying had thought about these matters very clearly, so even when facing Xu Zhuoyuan, whom he trusted the most, he didn’t reveal the slightest bit!

Pursing his lips, he tightened his grip on the phone. In the next moment, he calmly changed the topic.

“I just wanted to ask if your dress fits well. If you don’t like it, you can change it tomorrow. But you didn’t pick up the phone, so I was a little worried...”

Qin Yiyi listened to his calm voice. His breathing seemed steady, and his voice was firm.

As long as he didn’t recklessly stop his medicine, his condition would be stabilized for a few months.

When the time came, the medicinal herbs she bought would be able to remove the poison from his body.

Qin Yiyi did not say anything as she thought about this. She only thanked him lightly and said, “I’m not wearing the dress. You can get someone to take it back tomorrow.”

If she wanted to wear it, she could buy it herself.

“It’s a birthday dress for you. If you don’t like it, just leave it.”

Shang Jiuying recalled the information he had found out about her in the Qin family during this period of time. He felt a little sorry for Qin Yiyi.

Then, he thought of Qin Jiatong’s annual birthday party a few years ago, where she invited Shanghai’s famous socialites.

Her clothes were elegant and her hair was shaded.

Flowers, wine, and food...

However, this little girl could only follow her grandparents and hide in a small town, looking forward to it.

She was hoping that her parents, who had heard of her, would think of her on a whim and come to visit her.

For some reason, he felt like they were in the same boat.

He turned around and smiled. Who cared what he was? Could he not protect a little girl?

The two of them spoke a few more words. Qin Yiyi’s crisp voice was transmitted through the phone.

“Is there anything else? It’s 10:30. I have to rest.”

Shang Jiuying raised his head and looked at the computer screen in front of him. There were still a few international conferences on it.

Thinking of the little girl’s serious expression when she said that she wanted to go to bed early and wake up early like a good student, a hint of a smile flashed across his eyes. He unconsciously lowered his voice and said, “Good night, Miss Qin Yiyi.”

The next morning, she got up at 6:30 a.m. and went out to run a few laps around the neighborhood. She came back drenched in sweat.

After eating breakfast, she carried her school bag out of the door and saw Ding Yi smiling at her through the car window like a flower.

“Miss Qin, Miss Qin, I’m here.”

“Have you eaten breakfast? This is for you.”

Two buns and a box of milk.

Ding Yi caught them in a flurry, his face full of surprise.

“Aiya, Miss Qin, did you make the steamed buns yourself? They must be delicious!”

Did he want to eat them, or did he want to hide them and bring them home for worship, so that he could show them off to Shang Jiuying later?

As he was thinking, Qin Yiyi paused at the back of the car, looked at him meaningfully, and said lightly, “I’m sorry.”

“You’re thinking too much.”

Not far from the school gate.

Qin Yiyi bent down from the car and took a few steps forward before turning around.

“Do you have something you want to say to me?”

“No, no. Miss Qin, please take care.”

After saying this, he hurriedly rolled up the car window and stepped on the accelerator, causing the car to dash out.

It was as if he was fleeing.

Qin Yiyi was rendered speechless by what she saw, but she didn’t take it seriously. She had some understanding of Ding Yi’s character during this period of time, and he had always been a little jumpy.

Moreover, she had also noticed that that guy liked to imagine things automatically in his mind. She didn’t know how many images had flashed through that guy’s mind along the way just now. Shrugging her shoulders, she turned around and walked into the school.

At a corner not far behind her,?Xiao Shan and Qin Jiatong walked out from the shadows with solemn expressions.

Seeing that they were about to enter the school, Qin Jiatong suddenly bit her lip, her face full of pleading and hesitation. She looked at the person beside her with hidden bitterness in her eyes.

“My sister isn’t that kind of person. She just came over in a friend’s car...”

“Xiao Shan, my sister really won’t be so casual outside. She’s a very nice person... Can you not tell anyone about this?”

As soon as the last sentence left her mouth, her eyes were already red with anxiety. She was on the verge of tears.

“She must have her own reasons....”
