“Don’t be nervous. Sister Yu is very friendly,” Qin Chuan added.

When Jian Yiling heard this, she merely nodded.

From the looks of it, she was still not willing to talk to Qin Chuan.

The figure in front of him was so different from the girl in his dreams. That girl had hysterically cried out that she loved him.

Yu Xing was not surprised that Qin Chuan and Jian Yiling knew each other. After all, one was the Head of the Qin family and the other was the future matriarch of the Zhai family.

Instead, Yu Xing said to Qin Chuan: “You need to go outside for a while. You can’t be present during the assessment. Please wait until I finish the assessment. Then, you can ask any questions that you want.”

“Okay,” Qin Chuan replied as he left the assessment room.

When he left the room, Qin Chuan ran into Lucy. When he saw her, his face was filled with chillness.

However, Lucy was not afraid of Qin Chuan. She knew very well that as long as the Goodman family did not give up on her, Qin Chuan could not do anything to her.

And thus, Lucy asked Qin Chuan: “Did you also come here for Jian Yiling?”

Qin Chuan glanced at Lucy before he responded: “There’s no need to put on a proud face. Are you trying to cover up for the fact that you’re considered nothing in the Goodman family?”

Qin Chuan’s words poked Lucy’s sore spot.

Lucy knew very well that she was not an important person to the Goodman family.

Her grandfather was the younger brother of the man who was the current Head of the Goodman family. However, as her grandfather and father failed to bring value to their family, they had gradually become marginalized.

When she stayed at home, she was often taunted by her cousins.

From a young age, Lucy was taught by her father to be the best. Otherwise, they would not be able to get out of their current situation.

For her, not doing well enough basically meant that there was a mark stamped on her forehead. If that mark did not come off, she would have to face the taunts of others forever.

After a pause, Lucy smile before she responded: “Then what about you Mr. Qin? You’re remaining calm in the face of any event but aren’t you still the illegitimate son of the Qin family?”

Lucy had done her research on the Zhai family and the Qin family. Therefore, she knew about Qin Chuan’s birth.

“Your words can’t hurt me. I don’t care about my origin,” Qin Chuan calmly replied.

Lucy continued to say: “Then what about Jian Yiling? The look you gave her just now was clearly the kind of look a man gives to a woman when he likes her. However, she’s Young Master Zhai’s fiancee. She has nothing to do with you.”

Lucy was very clear about this. After all, she looked at Zhai Yunsheng in the same way.

“There are always things in life that don’t go as planned. It is what it is. I can’t get everything I want in life,” Qin Chuan replied indifferently. “It’s just like how I know you were involved in the kidnapping of my mother and sister. However, you were set free.”

Qin Chuan restrained himself from doing or saying anything else.

Even in front of his enemy, he had to remain calm.

He knew very well that he was unable to achieve certain things. And the reason for this was that he was not capable enough yet.

If he was capable enough, he would send Lucy back into jail instead of speaking to her.

He also restrained his feelings towards Jian Yiling.

“You’re lying to yourself.”

Lucy did not believe in this. If Qin Chuan could truly control his actions and words, he would not appear here today.

“You can say whatever you want. I don’t care about what a criminal says,” Qin Chuan replied. He did not care about Lucy’s opinion of him.

Criminal.

This word made Lucy’s heart tighten.

Lucy slowly said: “Qin Chuan, believe it or not, if I had another option, I would not have laid my hands on the Qin family.”
