From Sidekick to Bigshot

wards this little girl were quite different.

“No,” Zhai Yunsheng replied.
He finally paid attention to Qin Yufan.
However, he only replied to reject her gift mercilessly.

“Master Sheng, are you not interested in the gift itself, or are you not interested in accepting a gift that’s from me?”

Qin Yufan wanted to know whether or not her gift did not appeal to him or whether he just didn’t want anything that she gave to him.

“I’m not interested in either,” Zhai Yunsheng replied with a snort.
“Miss Qin, if I’m interested in something, I will get it myself.
I do not need anyone to give it to me.
People or things, they’re all the same.”

Such a decisive and ruthless rejection would have been too much for a normal girl.

However, Qin Yufan was not a normal girl.
If she was, she wouldn’t have visited the Yu Residence today.

Qin Yufan always believed that if you wanted something, you had to take the initiative to get it.
You can’t just let an opportunity slip by.

She liked Zhai Yunsheng.
And thus, she had to express it and act upon it.

She wouldn’t be one of those timid and shy girls who schemed for a so-called ‘chance encounter’.

“Ahh, it seems like you don’t like me.
What about this little girl then?”

Qin Yufan wanted to hear Zhai Yunsheng’s opinion of Jian Yiling.

She could understand that she was not liked by Zhai Yunsheng.
However, she would refuse to accept that such a notorious little girl would be favored by Zhai Yunsheng.

Zhai Yunsheng glanced at Jian Yiling.
He realized that Jian Yiling was also waiting for his answer.

Jian Yiling was also not sure why Zhai Yunsheng was helping her again and again.
He helped her without asking for anything in return.

Zhai Yunsheng looked at Jian Yiling for quite some time.
His eyebrows were slightly knitted and his eyes seemed to be deep in thought.
However, he did not answer for a long time.

When Yu Xi realized that the atmosphere was not right, he attempted to help Zhai Yunsheng explain the situation: “Miss Qin, Master Zhai said that he wanted to recognize Jian Yiling as his adopted granddaughter.
In a sense, Miss Yiling would be Master Sheng’s little sister.”

Such an explanation would be more acceptable to Qin Yufan.
