Chapter 487: Chapter 487: You don’t need to explain your relationship with him to me

Shang Minghao’s words caused both Quan Sicheng and Shi Yiqing’s pupils to shake for quite a while.

Quan Sicheng didn’t know that the relationship between Shang Minghao and Shi Yiqing was purely that of superior and subordinate.

To his ears, Shang Minghao’s words meant only one thing.

——You and your fiancée should live together in a villa to serve me.

Shi Yiqing was equally shocked.

She knew the nature of her relationship with Shang Minghao, but she didn’t understand what he meant.

Even if Shang Minghao had no interest in her, he didn’t need to go this far, right?

Or could it be that Shang Minghao actually preferred men?

Because he liked men, he felt nothing towards her.

Because he liked men, he asked Quan Sicheng to move into Qingshui Bay...

Just thinking about that made Shi Yiqing feel terrible.

The way she looked at Quan Sicheng now carried an indescribable complexity.

After gazing at Quan Sicheng with a complicated expression for a while, her face suddenly took on an indescribable look.

Because...

She remembered something.

Previously, when Shi Yaoguang had intentionally spread rumors about Quan Sicheng...

No, strictly speaking, they weren’t rumors.

That time, when she went to the apartment to look for Quan Sicheng, she saw the aftermath of him being manhandled, even if Quan Sicheng wasn’t a delicate flower.

Even if Quan Sicheng hadn’t really lost his purity, he had still been defiled.

He really wasn’t clean anymore.

Or could it be...

He actually also preferred men?

As Shi Yiqing thought this, she looked at Quan Sicheng with added caution.

Quan Sicheng, still clueless about everything, was being looked at with such eyes by Shi Yiqing.

His heart went cold.

"Qingqing..."

Shi Yiqing didn’t give him a chance to speak, immediately going "I don’t listen, I don’t listen".

Looking at Quan Sicheng with disappointment, she said, "How could you do this?"

Quan Sicheng anxiously said, "It’s not like that, listen to me explain!"

They both played their parts well, but Shang Minghao, standing by, couldn’t watch anymore.

As Heavenly Dao, he naturally knew how the chosen girl’s life should unfold.

He also clearly knew that the chosen girl’s destiny was with the male lead.

After all, he had arranged it all.

It was just that he never expected...

That he, as Heavenly Dao, facing both of them at the same time, would actually fail to understand what they were saying.

Shang Minghao felt somewhat withdrawn.

What exactly were they talking about?

Why couldn’t he understand?

Shang Minghao carefully recalled that after meeting Quan Sicheng, he had invited him into the car.

Once they were in the car...

Quan Sicheng and Shi Yiqing began to look into each other’s eyes.

There was nothing wrong with that, considering they were lovers.

A look between them could spark love, which was quite normal.

He just didn’t expect...

The words they spoke afterwards to be so... incomprehensible to him.

Why wouldn’t Shi Yiqing listen to Quan Sicheng’s explanation?

What did Quan Sicheng really want to explain?

Could it be that during their eye contact, some kind of telepathy had occurred between them?

Could the two have communicated through some channel that he could not access?

Thinking this, he felt speechless.

Doubting his own life.

Neither Shi Yiqing nor Quan Sicheng knew of his thoughts.

At this moment, although Quan Sicheng and Shi Yiqing were slightly off in their thinking, their final conclusions were consistent.

They both believed that Shang Minghao was into men and had designs on Quan Sicheng.

This development was rather surreal.

Quan Sicheng wanted to explain to Shi Yiqing, but she wouldn’t listen, and he was at a loss.

After thinking it over, he simply gave up trying to explain and looked at Shi Yiqing with deep eyes.

"Qingqing, no matter what you’ve done, you are the woman I love the most..."

As he spoke, he pursed his lips, a look of wanting to persuade her on his face, "But... I still want to say something."

When Shi Yiqing heard this, her heart stirred first.

Then, she looked uneasily at Shang Minghao, not wanting him to misunderstand.

To prevent Shang Minghao from misunderstanding that she still had feelings for Quan Sicheng, she hurriedly said, "Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing to do with him..."

Shang Minghao’s expression darkened when he heard this.

He looked at Shi Yiqing displeased and asked, "What did you say?"

Shi Yiqing repeated what she had said, "I really have nothing to do with him, don’t misunderstand..."

"Heh." Shang Minghao let out a cold laugh, "You’d better think clearly before you speak."

His mood was not great at the moment. The thought of Shi Yaoguang and then seeing the couple before him...

No, they didn’t even appear to be a couple!

How could such a pair be tasked with the roles of leading man and woman?

Thinking this, his irritation grew.

The way he looked at Shi Yiqing became even more disdainful.

Shi Yiqing felt somewhat hurt by such a gaze.

She didn’t understand why Shang Minghao had such an expression.

She hadn’t done anything wrong, had she?

"Mr. Shang, what do you mean by that? I..."

"What about you?"

Shang Minghao interrupted her, "I have no interest in hearing anything superfluous."

As he spoke, he looked at Quan Sicheng, "If you have any investment needs, or things you can’t accomplish on your own, you can come to me for help."

Quan Sicheng was tempted.

However, he didn’t immediately agree.

Because...

He doubted Shang Minghao’s intentions.

"Why would you help me? Do you have an ulterior motive for helping me?"

Shang Minghao rolled his eyes, "What ulterior motive could I possibly have in helping you?"

After saying this, he paused and looked at Shi Yiqing.

Quan Sicheng immediately revealed an "I knew it" expression and then indignantly said, "Whatever conditions you propose, don’t think you can buy me off. I will never let Qingqing go to you!"

Shang Minghao showed a disgusted expression, "What are you thinking? When did I ever ask you to hand her over to me?"

Quan Sicheng was still not quite convinced, "Really?"

"Do I need to lie to you?"

Quan Sicheng thought about it and felt that although his words were hurtful, they were also undeniably true.

He glanced at Shi Yiqing and lowered his eyes.

But he felt a bit bitter inside, for he truly loved Shi Yiqing.

If this were not the case, he wouldn’t have given up Yaoguang and been with Shi Yiqing instead.

In fact, he was very clear in his mind that the identity of the Shi family’s eldest daughter, Yaoguang, might be the most secure choice.

As long as he affirmed his position and chose Yaoguang, the Shi Family would surely not mistreat her.

But it was because of Shi Yiqing that he deliberately showed disdain for Yaoguang and interest in Shi Yiqing.

This way, even if the Shi Family wanted to please him, they had no choice but to keep their distance from Yaoguang.

In the end, he achieved his goal but ended up with both personal and financial losses.

With this in mind, his gaze at Shi Yiqing also became a bit more fierce.

Shi Yiqing, oblivious to his thoughts, was visibly impatient.

"What exactly do you want?" she asked, and Shang Minghao also looked at her.

Meeting Shang Minghao’s gaze, Shi Yiqing spoke, "Mr. Shang, please believe me, I really have nothing to do with him. Don’t get the wrong idea."

"What could I possibly misunderstand?" Shang Minghao countered.

As he spoke, he added, "You don’t need to explain your relationship with him to me."
