The Rich Second-Generation Villain With No Morals

Chapter 84

"That's what you said, okay?"

Qiu Yuelin rolled her eyes at Qi Lin but still blushed slightly as she held his large hand and guided him in writing mathematical symbols.

Her delicate face was tinged with a light pink hue—it was the first time she had ever held hands with a boy.

As for Qi Lin, while pretending to focus on learning, he couldn't help but think, As expected of a rich heiress—her hands are so soft, slender, and cool to the touch.

If I interlocked fingers with her, wouldn't that be even more amazing?

On the side, Hu Bing watched as the two sat so close, their hands clasped together, his face turning pale with anger.

The sight made his blood boil, but he didn't want to look away.

Yet, when he thought about leaving, another terrifying thought surfaced—if he left, wouldn't they get even closer?

Grinding his teeth, Hu Bing stayed put, waiting impatiently for the class bell to ring.Watching the girl he liked holding hands with another guy was an indescribable kind of torture.

"Alright, are you done? Did you learn it now? Hurry up and write down the knowledge points I just taught you, or else you'll regret it!"

Qiu Yuelin put on a fierce expression, finally looking a little like a real teacher.

"Okay, okay!"

Qi Lin smirked and flashed an "OK" sign.

He had gotten a kiss, held her hand—now it was time to show some real skills.

Grabbing a pen, he quickly began writing on the paper.

In less than two minutes, he handed the finished notes to Qiu Yuelin.

She was completely stunned—she had just witnessed him writing everything down flawlessly.

The hundreds of words on the paper were identical to what she had just taught him, without a single mistake.

"Did you already know all this and just trick me into thinking you didn’t?"

Qiu Yuelin’s beautiful eyes were full of suspicion as she looked at Qi Lin.

Qi Lin put on a serious face. "If I really knew it, why would I have scored zero on all my math exams? The teachers in this office can vouch for that."

"Qiu Xuejie, you just don’t have enough confidence in yourself. Accept it—you’re a genius teacher. Everything I learned was thanks to your amazing teaching. It's all your credit."

What is the biggest dream of someone with a savior complex?

To truly reform someone.

To take a troubled student and help them turn their life around.

Qiu Yuelin’s face blushed even more—Qi Lin’s flattery was making her feel a bit shy.

But at the same time, she felt an immense sense of accomplishment.

See? Every student just needs the right approach.

If I can help Qi Lin, the worst student at Huashi Yifu, improve his grades, doesn’t that mean I don’t need to rely on Hu Bing?

Doesn’t that mean I could become a real teacher here on my own merit?

Just then, the class bell rang.

"Qiu Xuejie, I’m heading back to class now. Love you~"

Qi Lin threw her a flying kiss, grinning as he walked away.

He had achieved his goal for the day—tomorrow, he’d push things even further.

"Yuelin, you absolutely can’t believe that brat’s lies! Can’t you see he’s just using you? Can’t you just listen to me and stop dealing with him?"

As soon as Qi Lin left, Hu Bing anxiously tried to talk sense into Qiu Yuelin.

Qiu Yuelin looked at him seriously. "Do you think I’m a fool? Of course, I can tell when he’s messing with me. But it’s just some minor physical contact—don’t you shake hands with women when you go out?"

"You should know that, yes, Qi Lin is a bit frivolous, but he still has the potential to change. Didn’t you see just now? His learning really is improving."

"Stop trying to convince me. I’m going to help Qi Lin improve his grades. Once he finds joy in learning, his behavior will naturally improve as well."

With that, Qiu Yuelin turned back to grading assignments.

Hu Bing stared at her slender back, his expression filled with pain.

For the first time, he realized just how terrifying it was to have a savior complex.

But Qiu Yuelin was just too beautiful.

And she was someone he had nurtured himself.

Not to mention—he hadn’t even held her hand before!

Was he really supposed to just stand by and watch as she was stolen away?

Besides, her family background was too valuable to him.

Hu Bing had power, but if he wanted to climb even higher, he needed more than just ability—he needed money. Lots of it.

"Qi Lin, don’t think I don’t see what you’re doing. As long as I’m around, you’ll never get Yuelin!"

Hu Bing’s eyes darkened as he turned and left for his office.

At lunchtime, Qi Lin strolled over to Lan Yuxi’s desk and handed her some money.

"Class Rep, I’ve got something urgent at noon, so I can’t have lunch with you today. Here’s some cash—treat yourself to something nice. Otherwise, you might not grow properly."

This was part of the 15,000 yuan prize money he had promised to share with Lan Yuxi.

If he wanted to completely turn her against Wang Cheng, psychological manipulation alone wasn’t enough—money was a key factor too.

Without waiting for her response, Qi Lin casually stuffed his hands in his pockets and left the classroom.

"That bastard! He’s definitely off to mess with another girl."

"Who needs his filthy money anyway?"

Lan Yuxi bit her lip in frustration, fuming.

Yesterday afternoon, Qi Lin hadn’t bothered her at all—he had gone after Wang Siling instead.

She could guess what had happened.

Wang Siling had probably been kissed so much that her lips were swollen.

And now, Qi Lin wasn’t even inviting her to lunch?

She couldn’t help but feel... abandoned.

Ugh! Who cares?! It’s not like I care about him in the first place!

Lan Yuxi, get a grip! This guy is the only one who has ever bullied you to the point of tears. You should be looking for a way to get revenge, not falling into his trap!

Even though she said she didn’t care about his money, she hesitated for a moment before finally stuffing the cash into her small cloth purse.

She went out alone to get lunch.

Oddly enough, Wang Cheng left school as soon as the bell rang.

Usually, when Qi Lin bullied her, Wang Cheng’s face would turn green with anger.

But today, he was gone before she could even react.

What Lan Yuxi didn’t know was that Wang Cheng was busy working on his "big plan."

Instead of wasting time watching Qi Lin bully her, it was better to focus on capturing the suspect in the recent murder case.

Once he became the hero of Jianghan City and claimed the 100,000-yuan reward, he wouldn’t have to fear Qi Lin anymore.

He would finally be able to protect the girl he loved.

Meanwhile, Qi Lin hopped into a taxi and headed home.

At home, he grabbed his makeup kit and the stack of property deeds for the Rose Bay shops—his latest reward from the system—before hopping into another car.

Today, he had to keep a low profile.

Too many people knew about his Mercedes, so he took a Passat instead.

After parking near the Rose Bay shopping district, Qi Lin stayed inside the car and started applying makeup.

This time, he transformed himself into Qiu Yuelin.

"It’s perfectly normal for a rich young lady to buy a store. Xia Sha won’t suspect a thing," Qi Lin grinned.

He had considered disguising himself as someone else.

But Lan Yuxi and Xia Sha knew each other too well.

Wang Siling was too young to pull it off.

After thinking it through, impersonating Qiu Yuelin was the best choice.

"This SSS-level disguise skill is insane. I can look exactly like a woman, and even my voice matches perfectly."

Looking at himself in the mirror, Qi Lin was amazed.

"Qiu Yuelin is only 1.6 meters tall. Let’s see how the bone-shrinking technique works."

Crack!

As his bones shifted, Qi Lin was shocked to find himself shrinking from 1.85 meters to 1.65 meters.

Thus, the image of an elegant and wealthy heiress was born.

Nodding in satisfaction, Qi Lin changed into a woman’s outfit before stepping out of the car.

"A three-story building with a floor area of about 200 square meters per level—quite spacious."

"Speaking of which, this location would be perfect for opening a 'Shrimp Emperor' restaurant."

Looking at the three-story commercial building in front of him, Qi Lin gradually made up his mind.

Wasn’t the goal to crush Xia Sha's business and then appear before her like a savior?

Coincidentally, Qi Lin’s family’s crayfish farming business had just started. Why not renovate this shop and turn it into the first 'Shrimp Emperor' branch?

Oh, right, in his past life, 'Shrimp Emperor' was the largest crayfish restaurant chain in all of China.

Around a certain year, the founder of 'Shrimp Emperor' established this brand specializing in crayfish cuisine.

Riding the wave of the booming crayfish industry, 'Shrimp Emperor' soared to success, growing into a billion-dollar restaurant empire thanks to its delicious crayfish dishes and top-tier service.

But too bad. Since Qi Lin had been reborn, he was going to take this brand for himself.

"Let’s open the door and check out the interior."

Qi Lin stepped inside first to inspect the space and decide on the design for the first 'Shrimp Emperor' restaurant.

Click!

But just as Qi Lin opened the shop’s door, a group of over ten young men and women, holding flyers and business cards, suddenly appeared around him.

"Miss, is this shop yours?"

"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm the manager of Chengxin Renovation Company."

"Miss, for renovations, go with Meixin Decorations! We have been professionals for years and have renovated thousands of stores. Absolutely reliable!"

"Miss, our company offers free tables and chairs with the renovation, so you won’t have to buy them separately."

"Miss, we offer a 20% discount on renovations, using only high-end imported materials from Europe and America—much better than the others."

Qi Lin was stunned as a pile of business cards was shoved into his hands.

What the heck? It’s only this year, and renovation companies are already this competitive?

The system had just rewarded him with this shop, and these people swarmed in like sharks smelling blood.

"But this actually saves me the trouble of looking for a renovation company."

Qi Lin smiled faintly and, using Qiu Yuelin's voice, said, "Give me a business card from each of you. Also, if you have renovation plans, hand them over too. Don't rush—I’ll review them one by one before deciding which company to choose."

Hearing that this beautiful lady was willing to take their cards, the businesspeople in suits beamed with joy and eagerly handed them over.

"I'm Xiaoqiang from Chengxin Renovations. May I know your name, Miss?"

"I'm Xiaoyu from Meixin Decorations. Here’s my business card."

"I'm Xiaowang from Juzhong Renovations. Miss, this is my card."

"Hello, Miss. I’m Chen Shuyi from City People Decorations. This is my business card."

"Miss, hello, I’m—"

Qi Lin didn’t hear the rest of the introductions.

The moment he heard a particular name and voice, he was stunned.

"Chen Shuyi? Could it be…?"

Qi Lin turned around.

Behind him, a stunning figure stood gracefully.

She wore a black business suit with a skirt, her long legs wrapped in sheer stockings. Her delicate, makeup-free face carried a professional smile as she gazed at him.

What the…? This is way too coincidental! How could I run into Chen Shuyi, here at my shop, promoting renovation services?

After a brief moment of surprise, Qi Lin couldn’t help but smile.

"You can all leave now. I’ve already chosen my renovation company."

Qi Lin waved his hand, dismissing the salespeople.

"But, Miss, you haven’t even looked at my business card!"

The salespeople hurriedly protested.

"I choose renovation companies based on looks, alright?"

"I own quite a few properties, and we’ll be seeing each other often. If you don’t leave now, I’ll make sure neither I nor my friends ever choose your company."

Playing the role of a spoiled heiress, Qi Lin shooed the salespeople away.

Hearing this, the businesspeople could only force a bitter smile and reluctantly leave.

Among them was also Chen Shuyi.

"Miss, please wait a moment."

Just as Chen Shuyi was about to leave, Qi Lin grabbed her hand.

"Uh…"

Chen Shuyi turned back, looking at Qiu Yuelin in confusion.

"Sis, how do you take care of your skin? Can you share your secret with me?"

Qi Lin reached out with his other hand and gently touched Chen Shuyi’s soft, smooth face.

Chen Shuyi’s cheeks flushed. For some reason, this rich beauty in front of her seemed oddly flirtatious.

Also, why did this lady's hand feel so big? It didn’t feel like a woman’s hand at all.

Even more bizarre, when their hands touched, she felt a slight electric shock.

However, Qiu Yuelin’s exquisite face, combined with her mesmerizing gaze, dispelled any doubts from Chen Shuyi’s mind.

"I-I don’t really do much skincare. Maybe I was just born with good skin."

Chen Shuyi replied shyly.

As a salesperson, she was fine with this sort of attention—at least as long as it wasn’t from male clients.

Besides, she was still in her internship period.

This woman’s shop was huge—three floors! The renovation alone would cost tens of thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands.

If she could land this deal, not only could she secure a permanent position, but she would also earn a hefty bonus.

"Hehe, to be honest, I’m naturally beautiful too. And I really love girls with good skin! Since we’re so fated to meet, I’ll give you the renovation contract for my shop."

Qi Lin linked arms with Chen Shuyi, pressing close as he spoke with a smile.

"This… you’re really giving me the contract?"

Chen Shuyi stared at Qiu Yuelin in shock, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

It felt like she had just been hit by a golden opportunity falling from the sky.

She had done nothing—nothing at all—yet this beauty had picked her just because of her looks?

For the first time, Chen Shuyi experienced the privilege of beauty in the workplace.

"What’s wrong? You don’t want it?"

Qi Lin asked with a teasing smile.

"No, no! I’m just too happy!"

"By the way, I still don’t know your full name. How should I address you?"

Chen Shuyi asked, her excitement barely contained.

"I’m Qiu Yuelin. You can call me Linlin or Yueyue."

Qi Lin answered with a grin.

"Then I’ll call you Miss Yueyue."

Chen Shuyi responded politely.

She didn’t dare act too familiar with Qiu Yuelin.

This three-story restaurant was worth at least several million yuan.

It was best to show proper respect. If she offended her and lost the deal, that would be disastrous.

"Calling me ‘Miss Yueyue’ sounds so distant. Just call me Yueyue, and I’ll call you Shuyi from now on."

Qi Lin put on a serious face, pretending to be unhappy.

"Alright, alright! I’ll listen to you, Yueyue."

Chen Shuyi smiled, thinking she had met a kind-hearted rich girl.

But little did she know, meeting ‘Qiu Yuelin’ was the beginning of her nightmare.

"Wait a minute. Why are you still standing here? Didn’t I tell all the salespeople to leave?"

Qi Lin suddenly noticed a man still standing behind Chen Shuyi and frowned in displeasure.

Seeing Qiu Yuelin’s irritated expression, Chen Shuyi quickly explained, "Yueyue, this is Li Jiaming. He also works at City People Decorations, just like me. He’s not from another company."

"Li Jiaming?"

Qi Lin’s heart stirred as a vague memory surfaced.

If he recalled correctly, this was Chen Shuyi’s boyfriend in her past life.

"Oh, so he’s from your company too."

Qiu Yuelin merely glanced at Li Jiaming and lost interest.

She then took Chen Shuyi’s soft hand again and said, "Shuyi, from now on, only you will be in charge of my renovations. If anyone else from your company comes, I won’t pay."

"Alright, Yueyue, I promise! I’ll be the only one handling your project."

Chen Shuyi agreed helplessly.

But deep down, she was actually relieved.

She had worried that once her boss learned of the deal, he might assign someone else to take over.

If that happened, even if the deal went through, she’d only get a tiny portion of the commission.
