Chapter 348: Could Be Seen When Head Is Lowered. He Wanted To Trick Her To Sign It
Han Xiao was nearly 1.9 meters tall. Along with his good looks and noble temperament, he stood in the crowd and was particularly eye-catching.
It also allowed him to be able to look into the distance where others could not see easily.
At this moment, a cell phone suddenly rang.
Qin Shu took off her backpack, unzipped it, lowered her head, and reached into her bag to look for her phone.
Han Xiao’s gaze swept over and paused in Ye Xue’s direction for two seconds. Then, he moved his gaze away and looked elsewhere.
When Han Xiao’s gaze brushed past her, Qin Shu raised her head and looked at the caller ID. It was Qin Hai.
Even if she didn’t hear what he had to say, Qin Shu could guess his motive for calling at this time of the day.
She pressed the answer button and removed the black mask on her face. When she placed the phone by her ear, she heard Qin Hai saying, “Little Shu, I heard that you managed to enter Imperial College. Let’s have dinner together. Daddy wants to celebrate for you.”
In fact, Han Xiao only needed to lower his eyes and he would be able to see Qin Shu’s exquisite face as well as that pair of eyes that were similar to the little one’s.
He walked far away in a short while with his pair of long legs.
When Qin Shu heard Qin Hai’s words, the corners of her mouth curled up into a sneer. Celebrate for her?
If he really wanted to celebrate with her, why didn’t he call her in the beginning?
Last time, used the excuse of him getting injured and wanted her to visit him. However, he didn’t get what he wanted.
This time, he used the excuse of celebrating her admission to Imperial College.
Qin Hai didn’t care whether she got into Imperial College or not.
She didn’t get into Imperial College in her previous life but he didn’t say a single word to her.
To him, she was a dispensable daughter.
If it weren’t for the company’s shares she possessed, which was 40%, she might have been kicked out of the house by Qin Hai in a fit of rage before Fu Tingyu came back.
“Sure,” Qin Shu replied indifferently.
“I’ve booked a table at Fu Manlou. You can come to Fu Manlou directly.”
“Okay.”
Qin Shu hung up the phone and put the phone back into her bag.
Ye Xue glanced at Qin Shu and realized that she didn’t seem very happy.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Qin Shu didn’t want to ruin her good mood while shopping today because of her father. She gave Ye Xue a gentle smile. “It’s nothing. Let’s go back.”
Ye Xue was simple-minded and didn’t think too deeply about things. Hence, when she saw Qin Shu smiling, she didn’t think too much about it. “Okay.”
The two of them walked out of the mall.
Ye Qing drove the car over, opened the car door, and got out. He walked straight to the backseaT and opened the car door. He blocked the top of the car door with one hand.
Qin Shu and Ye Xue got into the car one after another.
After waiting for them to get into the car, Ye Qing closed the car door. He went around the back of the car, sat in the driver’s seat, and drove away.
Ye Qing drove the car to the street where they picked Ye Xue up.
After Ye Xue said goodbye to Qin Shu, she pushed open the car door and got out. Then, she closed the car door with force.
Only then did Ye Qing drive away.
Qin Shu’s gaze turned to Ye Qing who was in the driver’s seat. “Go to Fu Manlou.”
Hearing that, Ye Qing didn’t ask any more questions. He drove the car to Fu Manlou.
Ten minutes later
Fu Manlou
Qin Shu got out of the car, looked up at Fu Manlou’s signboard, and walked in.
This time, she didn’t let Ye Qing follow her.
When she reached the door of the reserved room, she pushed the door open and saw Qin Hai sitting in front of the dining table. There were a few dishes on the table.
This room was for four people. It wasn’t big but it was very elegant.
There were bamboos printed on the shutters. It felt as if a cool breeze was coming in through the bamboo leaves.
Qin Hai had just gotten anxious from all the waiting when he heard the door open. He turned his head to look at the door and saw Qin Shu standing there. He instantly changed his expression and put on a smile that only a kind father would have. He kept his look of worry.
“Little Shu, come and sit down. I ordered the dishes according to your taste.”
Qin Shu sat opposite Qin Hai and glanced at the dishes in front of her. None of them were her favorites.
After her mother passed away, the only person who knew her preferences was Fu Tingyu. He was also the only person who would pay attention to her at all times because he wanted to know what she liked and what she didn’t like to eat.
Qin Shu had no intention of moving her chopsticks. In the past, she would eat what she didn’t like in order to cater to Qin Hai.
But now, why would she make things difficult for herself for the sake of this heartless person who had never cared about her?
When she was young, she didn’t understand why other people’s fathers would accompany them to play, carry them behind their backs, and give them gifts and surprises on their birthdays.
Why did she have any of these?
In her memory, there wasn’t even a hug.
“I’ve already eaten. I appreciate your kindness.”
She didn’t even want to call him father.
Qin Hai frowned when he realized that Qin Shu didn’t call him father. What was wrong with this child? She didn’t even call him father.
Could it be that she was angry that he didn’t celebrate for her earlier?
“Little Shu, my arm was broken a while ago and I stayed in the hospital for a period of time. I called you the moment I felt better. You won’t blame daddy, right?” Qin Hai probed.
Qin Shu looked up at Qin Hai and replied casually, “I’ve been staying with Yu for the past two years but you never came to see me. I’m doing well so, you don’t have to explain.”
When Qin Hai heard this, he knew that Qin Shu was blaming him. He said awkwardly, “It’s dad’s fault. I’m busy with company matters every day and don’t have time to visit you. Fu Tingyu is the fourth Master of Jiang City. I don’t dare to offend him. Sorry to make you suffer.”
Qin Shu laughed coldly. “But I heard from my younger sister that your family of three is just the right size. I’m the extra one. Even if Fu Tingyu didn’t come to pick me up, you would have chased me out. If I stayed at home, I will not only embarrass you, but it would also be a waste of food.”
When Qin Hai heard this, he slammed the table and said angrily, “How could I possibly find you embarrassing? That girl, Qin Ya, must be spouting nonsense. I’ll teach her a good lesson after I go back.”
Qin Hai flared up in anger. In his heart, he was also extremely furious. He wished that he could go back and reprimand Qin Ya right now. All she knew was to spout nonsense. She even said the truth.
He still wanted to take back the 40% of shares from Qin Shu. He also wanted to get back the Linhai Villa.
Qin Shu looked at Qin Hai’s angry appearance and laughed softly. Her laughter was almost inaudible. “But, she sounded as though she was saying the truth. She also said that the company will belong to her in the future, her alone. I won’t even get any scraps. She told me not to think about it at all.”
Qin Hai clenched his fists and almost died from anger. He quickly comforted his daughter. “Little Shu, don’t listen to Little Ya’s nonsense. She gets jealous easily and said these on purpose. You are my eldest daughter, the eldest young lady of the Qin family. How could you not have a share of the company?”
Qin Shu looked at Qin Hai’s indignant expression calmly. It was not hard to imagine that Qin Hai would definitely fly into a rage when he returned home this time. The one who would suffer would be Qin Ya.
She would let Qin Ya enjoy all the sufferings she went through in her previous life.
When Qin Hai noticed that Qin Shu was not speaking, he thought that she believed his words. He opened his briefcase and took out a document. He looked at Qin Shu and gave a fatherly smile. “Little Shu, I have a document that I need you to sign. Can you help daddy sign it?”
