He hadn’t gathered any information about her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t because he didn’t want to. Rather, it was because he couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She brought him the medicine because it was convenient for her to do so. Usually, the medicine was delivered by someone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t come to the capital because of Qin Chuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Yiling was not lying. Her eyes were as clean as ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Zhai Yunsheng’s expression was no longer as angry. However, his voice was still deep and low as he said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You broke your promise.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You will need to pay the price for breaking your promise.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know,” Jian Yiling replied. She was willing to accept the price of her broken promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The price will be great,” Zhai Yunsheng said. His gaze burned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been the one who had broken her promise. It made sense that she had to pay the price for her actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Jian Yiling’s reply, Zhai Yunsheng’s eyes appeared to be deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did not know what the price he wanted was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi watched the conversation between Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng. He hadn’t understood their conversation at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Broken promise? Pay the price? Was there an agreement between the two of them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What had happened between God Ling and Master Sheng? Why didn’t he know about this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi was incredibly curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Yu Xi held himself back from asking. He was afraid that things would be awkward if he asked about certain things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, the three of them stayed quietly at the Qin family banquet for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Yiling continued to eat whilst Yu Xi and Zhai Yunsheng accompanied her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone else in the banquet looked in their direction in wonder. Zhai Yunsheng’s actions tonight had been quite different from the usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, someone revealed that Yu Xi was Master Sheng’s best friend. They had known each other for many years and were very close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to be able to understand the situation a little better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, everyone was still curious about the young girl that sat beside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a girl who had received special treatment from both Young Master Qin and Master Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the banquet was coming to an end, Yu Xi suddenly received an urgent phone call. He needed to go back to deal with a situation in his company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahhh, what do I do?! I can’t leave right now. I need to send a friend back to her place.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi was quite conflicted. The situation at his company was quite urgent. However, he couldn’t just leave Jian Yiling here either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Give me the address, I’ll send her there,” Zhai Yunsheng spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really? Then...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi hesitated for a moment. He could not understand the relationship between Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after a moment of consideration, he decided to entrust Jian Yiling to Zhai Yunsheng:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay! I’ll leave God Ling with you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xi wanted to ease the relationship between Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng. Although [Domination] no longer existed, he was hopeful that their relationship would still be as good as it was back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after Yu Xi left, Zhai Yunsheng saw that Jian Yiling had finished eating:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest early today. You took a ten-hour flight. Don’t be a rabbit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Zhai Yunsheng left the venue with Jian Yiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most people did not leave the Qin family banquet early unless they had something important to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zhai Yunsheng did not care about this. He left whenever he wanted to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, the people at the venue noticed Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling’s departure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t help but express in surprise:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened to Master Sheng today? Not only did he unprecedentedly sit with a girl, but now, he is also leaving the venue with her...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be... Could it be that Master Sheng has taken a fancy to her? She’s so fortunate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nah, you guys are thinking about it too much. They’re probably just friends.”\u003C\u002Fp>",690,"2026-06-06T02:08:54.444Z",1,"novelbin.me","d6f881c850a94925ef802c0929082062a22a3674a596f1239b92a8311f6f18b2","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-406","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-456",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
