Chapter 403: Hidden Intentions

Sheng Yang’s gaze flickered slightly. She pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.

When they reached the flat ground, Yi Juncheng quickly released his grip.

This place was very close to her room, but he still stood there with one hand in his pocket. His back was straight and his expression was lazy and casual. He was like a tall pine tree as he watched her enter her room.

As soon as he went downstairs, he bumped into someone. Actually, he had already noticed this person.

He had expected to be caught red-handed.

She stared at him coldly. The house Sheng Yang was staying in in the capital was not an ordinary house.

“Why did you climb onto someone else’s roof?” Although Wu Jiaoyue was asking that, she was not angry.

She had seen him before. At that time, she had pinched his face and teased him, saying, “Call me Auntie.”

He was still a cute little baby back then. However, his gaze was very cold, indifferent, and cool. He did not resemble a child at all. He was not the slightest bit afraid. He even pursed his lips and stubbornly refused to say anything to her back then.

At that time, she felt that this child had quite a personality. He was indeed a child of the Yi family.

Sigh, speaking of the Yi family…

Such a family was simply lamentable.

Although he had become the nation’s leader and was even famous in the world, there were endless joys and sorrows that followed.

They were like a cursed family with both fortune and misfortune.

Now, looking at the man before her, she could no longer be fierce.

Now in the capital, everyone addressed him respectfully as “Master.” He had become sharper than before, like an unsheathed sword.

Well, after everything…

For a moment, Wu Jiaoyue didn’t know what to say.

“Auntie Wu,” the other party suddenly called out.

Wu Jiaoyue was stunned, then she smiled.

This kid had probably found out everything. For the sake of wooing girls, he was shameless…

Cough, did this mean that Yangyang was extremely charming?

This was the first time she saw Young Master Yi putting in so much effort.

“Don’t… There’s no use trying to get close to me. Even though I treat Yangyang as my goddaughter, I haven’t formally acknowledged her.”

Yi Juncheng curved his lips. “I get along well with Yangyang’s mother.”

“Oh.” Wu Jiaoyue rubbed her nose. She seemed to have been overthinking it.

It seemed that the other party remembered her after their first and only meeting when he was still so young.

However, Young Master Yi was one who could remember everything that he wanted to. If he did not want to remember, he would simply give it no further thought.

Hence, she was really flattered by the way he addressed her.

She could tell that Yi Juncheng was sincere toward Yangyang, so she didn’t say anything else. It was up to Yangyang.

They were leaving the capital the next day, so Sheng Yang decided to buy some books at Yun Kai Bookstore.

Yun Kai Bookstore was the only one that sold limited edition books in the capital. There, one could find rare books on the market.

“I’ll go with you!”

“Me too!”

Ou Ye and Fang Duo were excited. This was the first time they heard of such a bookstore. It was very interesting.

Sheng Yang brought them to Imperial Capital to broaden their horizons. This was the first time they came to Imperial Capital to participate in a business war, and because of this, it had opened a new door for them.

Regardless of their abilities, they could not wait to learn more.

Sheng Yang looked at them seriously with a meaningful expression. “Are you sure you want to go?”

“Yes, of course!” Fang Duo was excited.

Putting everything aside, she still had money. Even if the book had a sky-high price, costing hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan per book, her parents would still be very willing to buy it for her if they heard that she wanted to buy books to study.
