Chapter 58 - Junior Sisters

Chapter 58: Junior Sisters

Three days later, at 8:00 PM, as the evening lights began to brighten the city, Jiang Che drove his Bugatti straight to Shen Qingqiu’s villa area. It was Lin Lao’s birthday celebration tonight, and he was to accompany Shen Qingqiu to the event.

Not long after Jiang Che arrived at Shen Qingqiu’s villa, she emerged from the house. “Brother Xiao Che, you’re here…” Seeing Jiang Che, her usually cold demeanor brightened with a smile. Dressed in a pristine white floral dress, she looked like a proud swan.

“We should get going, it’s getting late,” Jiang Che suggested, glancing at his watch with a smile. He then led Shen Qingqiu towards the Lin residence.

…

The Lin family estate was brightly lit and bustling with activity. The event was graced by notable figures usually seen only in newspapers – industry elites, genteel ladies, unruly heirs, and jovial middle-aged men engaged in business talks.

Upon Jiang Che and Shen Qingqiu’s arrival, they immediately attracted attention. Known as Linjiang’s top bachelor and beauty President, their appearance together was a surprise to many, as only a few were aware of their relationship.

This was Jiang Che’s first time bringing Shen Qingqiu to such an event, sending a message that she was no longer available.

“Look, it’s Young Master Jiang and President Shen…”

“I never expected Young Master Jiang and President Shen to end up together. You two are truly a match made in heaven…”

“A golden couple indeed.”

They were quickly surrounded by a group offering flattery, and Jiang Che amiably engaged in conversation with them.

“I’ll go check on my junior sister,” Shen Qingqiu excused herself, not fond of such superficial interactions.

As she left, one of the young heirs, looking up to Jiang Che, asked in awe, “There’s a rumor that President Shen has no interest in men. How did you manage to win her over?”

“It’s something that can be understood, but not described,” Jiang Che replied, shaking his head. His relationship with Shen Qingqiu had developed naturally over time, a process so smooth and uneventful that even he found it somewhat baffling.

“Senior Sister, you’re here!” Lin Xiyin, busy instructing servants in tidying up the dining utensils in the Lin family’s hall, beamed as she saw Shen Qingqiu approaching. She eagerly ran over.

“Mhm.” Shen Qingqiu responded with a brief nod, maintaining her usual icy demeanor.

Lin Xiyin wasn’t offended by Shen Qingqiu’s coldness; she was well aware of her personality.

“Isn’t our sixth junior sister coming?” Lin Xiyin looked past Shen Qingqiu, searching for their other junior sister but found no sign of her. She expressed slight disappointment.

“I told her, but she doesn’t want to come,” replied Shen Qingqiu, shaking her head. “You know her temperament.”

Lin Xiyin understood and didn’t press the matter. “Third senior sister and our little junior sister are already here, in that corner. I’ll take you to them,” she offered warmly, gently grabbing Shen Qingqiu’s hand and leading her towards a corner of the room.

…

In a corner of the Lin family living room, Gu Yunqi and Jiang Yun’er were engaged in a conversation. Upon noticing Shen Qingqiu’s arrival, Jiang Yun’er’s eyes lit up.

She joyfully jumped from her chair and flung herself at Shen Qingqiu, hugging her tightly. Despite her small stature, she managed to wrap her arms around Shen Qingqiu’s neck, appearing somewhat comical.

“Wah wah wah~”

“Senior Sister, I missed you so much. You haven’t come to see me for such a long time,” Jiang Yun’er whined childishly, her voice tinged with feigned tears. Despite her words, her eyes were dry, filled more with mischief than sadness.

“Get down,” Shen Qingqiu ordered coolly, a frown forming on her face. She knew all too well her junior sister’s playful nature.

“No~ I really like Senior Sister,” Jiang Yun’er protested, shaking her head and nuzzling against Shen Qingqiu.

Lin Xiyin and Gu Yunqi couldn’t help but smile at the scene. Only Jiang Yun’er dared to jest with the normally aloof Shen Qingqiu like this. They knew Shen Qingqiu commanded considerable respect among her junior sisters.

“If you don’t get down now, I’ll have to discipline you according to our sect’s rules,” Shen Qingqiu said, her voice laced with a cold laugh. This threat seemed to have the desired effect on her junior.

“Ah… Senior Sister is so fierce. No wonder no one likes Senior Sister,” Jiang Yun’er grumbled as she reluctantly climbed down from Shen Qingqiu, clearly not happy about the situation.

She wasn’t eager to experience the sect’s discipline again, recalling the pain it had caused her in the past.
