“If you’re feeling hot, take off your coat,” He Guinian could feel the phantom heat just from watching how tightly she was wrapped in. He did not know if it was only his imagination, but he felt that Qin Zhen was acting a little strange today.

“I’m fine. It’s not that hot. I just sweated when I ran over to you,” Qin Zhen subconsciously pulled her coat closer to her body. What a joke. If she took it off, what would He Guinian do if he saw her injuries?

“What’s wrong with you today? Why do I feel like you’ve done something wrong?” He Guinian frowned. “Are you hiding something from me?”

He Guinian only said what was on his mind, but Qin Zhen’s eyes widened and she shouted, feeling affronted, “You’re being mean!”

He Guinian was slightly startled, “No I’m not,”

“Then why are you questioning me?” Qin Zhen asked.

“I’m… just asking…” He Guinian’s voice weakened.

“But you use that tone on me!” Qin Zhen’s eyes widened with annoyance.

He Guinian was speechless. He really could not follow the girl’s train of thought and did not understand what was going through her mind. He thought for a moment and quickly changed the topic, “What do you want to eat?”

Qin Zhen rubbed her chin and thought for a moment, “Hot pot!”

He Guinian nodded and told He Yi to hurry up, “Alright.”

When Qin Zhen returned home that evening, Qin Jin and Qin Youting were still awake and drinking tea in the living room.

“Dad, Big Brother!” She leaned over and shook the bag in her hand, “He Guinian bought this flower cake. It’s very delicious, so I brought some back for you to try.”

Watching Qin Zhen talking on and on about He Guinian made Qin Jin feel a little envious. The human heart was a funny thing. In the past, when Qin Zhen didn’t like He Guinian, he only felt worried about them. After all, He Guinian had grown up under his care, so he was more than relieved to hand Qin Zhen over to He Guinian. But now, his daughter’s heart was filled with the young man. As a father, he felt a little jealous.

“You should eat them. I’m old and don’t like sweet things. If I eat any more, I’ll have diabetes,” Qin Jin pursed his lips.

“I’m not eating, I’m not eating, I’m not eating.” Qin Youting said lightly.

Qin Zhen was still smiling, “Then I’ll eat it myself. Hmph, I don’t think it’s enough.”

‘So she was just being polite?’ Qin Jin and Qin Youting thought.

“Dad, Big Brother, I’ll go back to my room to wash up first. Good night! You guys go to bed early too.” Qin Zhen carried the flower cakes and went upstairs with a smile.

After washing up, she prepared to send a text to He Guinian. However, she heard a knock on her door.

“Zhenzhen, it’s me. Can I come in?”

“Come in!”

Qin Youting walked in with a glass of warm milk in his hand. He frowned when he saw Qin Zhen lying on the bed in her pajamas with her hair still wet.

“What’s the matter?” Qin Zhen asked.

Qin Youting handed the milk over, “I smell hot pot on you. You must have gone to eat it. Drink some warm milk to warm your stomach.”

“Ah… I have a really gentle brother,” Qin Zhen took the milk with a smile and drank a big mouthful in one go.

Qin Youting did not say anything. He took out the hairdryer from the shelf, plugged it in, and adjusted the temperature. “Come, dry your hair before you sleep.”

“No, it’s okay. I’m used to it. It’s fine as long as it doesn’t drip,” Qin Zhen’s hair was very thick and it took a long time to dry it, so most of the time, she just used the towel to pat down her hair.

Qin Youting looked at her stubbornly, “C’mon, listen to your brother,”

Qin Zhen had no choice but to slowly walk over and sit down. Looking at her gentle brother through the mirror, her mind took her back to her past life when her brother was framed for taking drugs and died… How could such a wonderful person like her brother have such an ending? With this second chance, she swore to not let what happened then repeat itself. She had already changed the fate of He Guinian’s legs, so she would also change her brother’s fate.

“Brother, are you interested in starting your own entertainment company? This way, you can continue to be a stylist and let your own artists promote your work. Your side job will be liked by more people.” Qin Zhen knew that her brother did not like to take over the family business. He preferred to fulfill his own dreams.

“How would I have the time? Besides, it’s not easy to start an entertainment company. We don’t have any connections in that area…” Qin Youting smiled helplessly.

Qin Zhen saw Qin Youting’s intention and continued, “Brother, in recent years, all kinds of entertainment apps have become popular. People, especially young adults, love using the internet. This could give you opportunities and a bigger platform for you to promote your expertise. You can make connections with artists and internet celebrities at the same time.” Qin Zhen said excitedly. Then, she picked up a pen and wrote down a few names. “Brother, you must recruit these people into your company. In a few years, they will definitely become famous! Trust me, you’ll definitely make a profit!”
