Chapter 4: The Gift from the Devil

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The auction ended.

After several days of a continuously heavy workload, Ming Qianye felt a little tired. On the other hand, she didn’t want Huo Jiarong to ask about her and Shen Tinglan, so she rejected Huo Jiarong’s invitation to dinner. She just wanted to go home, take a shower, and have a good sleep.

When she drove into Wen Lan District, it was already six in the evening.

Ming Qianye also had a house at G University, but she lived here most of the time, at the Linjiang apartment building.

On the 77th floor, the entire room was decorated in a European style. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, one could see a complete view of Canglan River Harbor. It was in one of the high-end districts in S City, and also…

what Shen Tinglan had lost to her back then.

Ming Qianye didn’t know what she had experienced back then to dare to snatch things from the devil.

…

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw someone waiting at her door.

A handsome and tall man.

It was Tang Feng, whom she had just seen at the auction!

Dressed in a neat black suit, he was prim and proper. He carried several bags in his hand. Beside him was a muscular and burly bodyguard in black.

Upon seeing Ming Qianye, Tang Feng quickly greeted her with a polite smile and a respectful bow.

“Miss Ming!”

“Why are you here?”

Ming Qianye frowned and took out the key from her bag.

“Young Master asked me to bring you a gift.”

As Tang Feng spoke, he lifted the gifts in his hand.

The devil actually gave her a gift?

How strange.

After pondering for a moment, Ming Qianye suppressed her doubts and held back her thoughts. She went forward to open the door and said with a cold voice, “He’s back?”

“Yes, Young Master just came back these few days. It’s his father’s birthday next weekend. When the time comes, he’ll personally come and fetch you back to the Shen residence. I’ll leave the gift here for you, Miss Ming…”

Tang Feng followed her in and placed the bag in his hand on the low table.

“Understood. Thank him for me,”

Ming Qianye replied.

Tang Feng bowed before leaving and closing the door.

The house instantly fell silent…

The lights in the spacious and luxurious hall were not bright, in fact it was a little dim. The dark-colored curtains of the windows at the side were wide open, and colorful light refracted in, casting their colors on the pristine floor. The light and shadows intertwined, making the entire space seem quiet and peaceful.

Ming Qianye poured a glass of water and sat down. She looked at the gift quietly for a long time before opening it…

A few gift boxes were filled with expensive jewelry, especially the last one.

It contained the bracelet that Tang Feng had bought for 50 million at the auction just now.

She was a little surprised. After all, these things looked valuable.

The devil was actually so generous to her, when he had even asked her to foot the bill the last time they went out for a drink.

Ming Qianye narrowed her eyes and stared at the gifts for a long time. Finally, she took a deep breath.

If he dared to give it to her, would she dare to not accept it?

Even after the interest he had paid her all these years.

…

Tang Feng, who had just left the neighborhood and got into his car, took out his phone from his pocket and quickly made a call.

At this moment, in a luxurious villa in the Qinglan Mountain Villa District across the harbor.

The entire villa was shrouded in the solemn twilight. The street lamps in the front yard of the villa were all lit up, and the lights were a little dim. The entire courtyard was filled with flowers, and a cool breeze quietly blew past. The air was filled with the faint fragrance of flowers, mixed with the fresh smell of the green grass. It was invigorating.

A beautiful piano sound suddenly broke the silence of the night. It was beautiful and pleasant. The cold tone seemed to be a little desolate, but it also revealed a sense of calmness. It was as if the autumn wind had passed through the cold rain with a hint of coldness. The restless hearts of those blessed to hear it would inexplicably calm down.

A man was playing the piano.

He was dressed in a casual black outfit. Under the dim yellow light, he practically blended into the night.

He was slender and a little thin. He sat upright in front of the piano, low-key and reserved. His posture was relaxed and lazy, and his perfect facial features were exquisite. His cold brows were slightly furrowed, and his black eyes carried a calm silence resembling that of the deep sea. His faint lips were slightly pursed. Even when he sat quietly, one could not mistake his noble and extraordinary aura. Even his silence could fill a room.

A pair of beautiful large hands danced on the black and white keys. The wrist was slender, and the fingers were long and cold, exuding a fleetingly distant, and cold feeling.

His cell phone had been ringing for a while. He finally stopped and reached out to pick it up.

“Hello? Young Master…”

After picking up the call, Tang Feng heaved a sigh of relief and quickly spoke.

“Yeah,”

A slightly cold voice sounded.

“It’s done. I’ve already explained everything and the gift has been delivered,”

Tang Feng reported concisely.

“What did she say?”

Shen Tinglan asked indifferently.

“Ms. Ming said that she understood and asked me to thank you on her behalf…”

The man hung up the phone and put it back down, continuing his unfinished song.

…

Ming Qianye wanted to go to bed early, but a call from Huo Jiarong ruined her plan.

Late at night, at Wenlan Bridge.

This bridge was a massive bridge that connected the south and north of the river. Ming Qianye lived in the north of the river, while Huo Jiarong lived in the south. There was a bustling Canglan Harbor in between. The scenery here was not bad. There were busy night scenes on both sides, and endless cruise ships and yachts below…

The two of them often went over late at night to enjoy the wind and the scenery…

There was already a lot of traffic on the road. Occasionally, they would see sports cars whizzing past and those enthusiastic and raucous youths on their motorcycles.

“How disgusting! What kind of people are they to be so shameless! Every time I see their faces, I want to strangle them to death!”

Huo Jiarong closed Weibo angrily and could not help but curse.

What she saw was naturally Mu Ziyi and Lou Qianwei’s Weibo news. It was trending. Just because they bought that necklace worth 30 million yuan, Huo Jiarong was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood!

How shameless!

“How can this mother-daughter pair be so self-righteous! Not only are they home-wreckers, but they also intruded into the family like this. Qianye, is Lou Zhiwen blind from old age? No matter what, you’re still your mother’s daughter. He, Lou Zhiwen, is just marrying into the family! Eating and drinking with the Lou family doesn’t count. Where did he get the face to snatch everything from the Lou family?! Aren’t you anxious?”

Ming Qianye walked over and glanced at her with a gloomy expression. Her eyes were cold as she handed her an ice cream.

“Is this the supper you mentioned?”

Huo Jiarong knew that she did not like to talk about this, so she changed the topic. A trace of dissatisfaction appeared on her beautiful face.

Ming Qianye opened her own and took a bite. She said indifferently, “I’m out of money.”

Disbelief was written all over Huo Jiarong’s face as she opened it, took a bite, and said, “Are ice creams so bad nowadays?”

Ming Qianye glanced at her and said coldly, “If you don’t like it, you don’t have to eat it.”

Huo Jiarong hurriedly shut her mouth and ate quickly in silence.

The night breeze was quite cool, and they could vaguely hear the sound of the river below.
