After the True Heiress Travels Back
Chapter 740: Coward

Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Coward

Qian Yi felt that Qian Shanshan was inexplicably bizarre.

Ordinary people, once their identities were exposed, would’ve been too embarrassed to show their faces and would hide away in some corner, but Qian Shanshan still had the audacity to be shameless like this.

Even after being exposed, she dared to run wild in his home.

Qian Yi thought, and couldn’t help but sigh to himself that he was really too kind-hearted.

Apart from him, who else could be so tolerant of a bad woman?

As Qian Yi praised himself in his mind, the look he gave Qian Shanshan was full of disdain.

Qian Shanshan was frustrated, but when she thought of what she had to do, she suddenly calmed down.

"Qian Yi, I’m here today because I have a good opportunity for you,"

"A good opportunity?" Qian Yi didn’t believe she was that generous.

They were hardly allies; why would Qian Shanshan think of him if there was a benefit?

It was like a weasel paying a New Year’s visit to a chicken—no good intentions!

Seeing Qian Yi unmoved, a more sinister look crossed Qian Shanshan’s eyes.

"Qian Yi, don’t be ungrateful. It’s an honor for you that I’m giving you this opportunity!"

Qian Yi didn’t believe a word she said.

An honor?

"I’m not interested!"

Qian Shanshan’s cold eyes narrowed, "Qian Yi, don’t be shameless! I’m willing to give you this opportunity, so you better cherish it."

Listening to her domineering words, Qian Yi’s expression darkened, "Qian Shanshan, are you sick? Why should I listen to you? You think you’re someone important being a fake illegitimate daughter?"

"Am I the one giving you face?"

Qian Shanshan didn’t expect this coward Qian Yi to talk back to her, and after being stunned for a moment, said, "Qian Yi, this time I’m really giving you a chance. If you don’t cherish it, don’t blame me for not wanting to help you."

"Heh." Qian Yi sneered, "Then tell me, what benefit are you offering me?"

Qian Shanshan was very smug, "I know you can’t resist beautiful women. Do you know who is currently the nation’s recognized number one beauty?"

Upon hearing this, the first image that came to Qian Yi’s mind was that of Shi Yaoguang.

And with that came a shiver down his spine.

Others might not know, but wasn’t he well aware?

Shi Yaoguang was definitely not a woman he could afford to provoke lightly.

He knew, for Shi Yaoguang, he had almost risked losing little brother.

Shi Yaoguang was indeed wonderful.

But in Qian Yi’s heart, she wasn’t much different from a devil.

Thinking about the past, Qian Yi looked at Qian Shanshan with an added sense of wariness.

"Qian Shanshan, you wouldn’t really think I’m a fool, would you?"

"What do you mean?" Qian Shanshan was confused. "Is it bad that I’m giving you a chance to get close to a great beauty like Shi Yaoguang? If necessary, you two can even have a spring breeze moment."

Upon hearing this, Qian Yi immediately refused with determination, "A spring breeze moment? Don’t even think about it!"

"How can that be?" After saying that, Qian Shanshan’s gaze suspiciously swept towards his lower half, "Qian Yi, you lecher, don’t tell me you can’t do it?"

She really couldn’t think of any other reason that would make Qian Yi miss the chance to interact with a beauty like Shi Yaoguang.

The moment Qian Yi heard this, he became angry, "Qian Shanshan, do you think you can mess around over my head just because I haven’t called the police to arrest you immediately? Do you know who Shi Yaoguang is?"

"Isn’t she just a national movie queen? What’s so great about that?" Qian Shanshan was dismissive. "I know you’ve conquered countless women. A Shi Yaoguang should be easy for you; I trust you."

Qian Yi: "Thanks a lot."

Qian Shanshan’s eyes lit up, "So you’re saying you agree?"

"Who said I agreed?" Qian Yi rolled his eyes, "Do you really think I don’t know what you’re up to? Trying to push me into a fire pit? Let me tell you, not a chance!"

"I don’t need to deceive you at all, I truly have your best interests at heart."

Qian Shanshan wanted to explain, but Qian Yi cut her off, "Save those words for your next life."

As he spoke, Qian Yi’s expression had a look of schadenfreude.

If Qian Shanshan crossed paths with Shi Yaoguang, she was definitely not going to live long.

Although he really despised Qian Shanshan, as a former rival, he didn’t mind the idea of hiring people to disco dance on her grave, celebrating her death as if it were as light as a feather.

"Qian Yi!"

Qian Shanshan glared at him with murderous eyes, "Do you really need to curse me like that?"

"It’s not a curse." Qian Yi’s face was the very picture of calm, "I’m just telling it like it is."

Having said that, his expression became one of pity, "You must be unaware of how formidable Shi Yaoguang is. I advise you not to set your sights on her; otherwise, you won’t even know how you die."

Qian Shanshan thought Qian Yi was a coward.

An unclaimed goddess and he didn’t want her.

That was just what his life would amount to.

Qian Shanshan made her disdain too obvious to ignore, even if Qian Yi wanted to pretend he didn’t see it.

But he was speechless when it came to Qian Shanshan.

Before pulling him into the mire, why hadn’t she taken the time to investigate the things he’d done in the past?

Back then, Lin Ruixue had tasked him with trapping Shi Yaoguang in a situation that couldn’t be taken back, and he indeed had tried.

The result was...

Qian Yi covered his face, his manhood had nearly not survived the ordeal.

And now Qian Shanshan still wanted to incite him to go after Shi Yaoguang?

Did she take him for a fool?

Qian Yi considered himself anything but a fool.

Naturally, he wouldn’t fall for it.

As for whether Qian Shanshan would dig her own grave, well, that was something he’d be happy to see.

Even with these thoughts, Qian Yi still "kindly" reminded her twice, "Qian Shanshan, don’t say I didn’t warn you, Shi Yaoguang is not someone you can mess with. Don’t even think about doing anything to her, or you’ll die a miserable death."

Qian Shanshan gave him a look of contempt and turned to leave.

Qian Yi revealed a sly smile, tinged with satisfaction.

He knew well that Qian Shanshan would never listen to advice.

The more he advised Qian Shanshan not to act recklessly, the more she would do just that.

As for what would happen to her after she offended Shi Yaoguang...

Well, that wasn’t something Qian Yi could control.

What Qian Shanshan didn’t realize was that the "cowardly fool" Qian Yi she saw was already awaiting her downfall.

She was truly infuriated by Qian Yi.

She had thought it would be a situation easily resolved by involving Qian Yi, but his refusal had complicated things unexpectedly.

Indeed.

The idea of defiling Shi Yaoguang wasn’t Quan Sicheng’s suggestion.

Quan Sicheng wanted to collaborate with her on the condition that

she must not lay a hand on Shi Yaoguang.

However...

Did Quan Sicheng really think she, Qian Shanshan, was someone to obey orders?

Was she that kind of person?

Besides.

She believed that her cooperation with Quan Sicheng wasn’t about following his orders.

They were merely taking what they needed from each other.

She hated Shi Yaoguang for "seducing" Cheng Linye and intended to deal with her.

Collaborating with Quan Sicheng was simply to better her chances against Shi Yaoguang.

As for the agreement with Quan Sicheng not to touch Shi Yaoguang, she had long since forgotten that.

However unfortunately, she thought up various ways to deal with Shi Yaoguang.

She contacted quite a few people she believed coveted Shi Yaoguang and wanted to have a fling with her, yet they all rejected the offer.
