From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 571
Chapter 571: Is She Going to be Your Wife?
Zhai Yunsheng led Jian Yiling back to the dinner party.
On the other side of the room, Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo watched the two of them from a distance.
From the time Qin Yufan took Jian Yiling to the lounge, the two of them had been paying close attention to movement near the lounge room area.
From time to time, Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo would glance in that direction.
Then, they saw Zhai Yunsheng enter the lounge room. After a while, they saw Jian Yiling come out of the lounge room. Jian Yiling had her arm wrapped around Zhai Yunsheng’s arm.
Cai Qinyue couldn’t help but comment: “How does Jian Yiling know so many people? She knows Elder Yun and Master Liang. This time around, it appears as though she knows Qin Yufan as well.”
Didn’t she come to Beijing for university only a while ago? How did she get involved with all these big shots? How did she gain all these connections?
It seemed as though this eighteen-year-old girl really had tricks up her sleeves.
As her mother spoke, Wen Ruo kept her eyes on Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.

Zhai Yunsheng brought Jian Yiling over to a desk. There were two men seated at that desk. When they saw Zhai Yunsheng appear with a girl latched onto his arm, their eyeballs were about to fall out of their eye sockets.
What was going on here?
Did the sun rise from the west today?
“What? Am I hallucinating? Is this Master Sheng?”
“Please pinch me. I think I’m hallucinating as well. Is that girl actually wrapping her arm around Master Sheng’s arm? Doesn’t Master Sheng not allow females to approach him?”
“I thought so as well… For a while, I was wondering if he and Yu Xi were…”
The two men seated at that desk were friends with Zhai Yunsheng. They had known Zhai Yunsheng for quite some time.
The two of them were also from well-off families in Beijing. Although they liked playing around, they stuck to their principles.
Zhai Yunsheng, on the other hand, never played around with women.
And thus, when they saw Zhai Yunsheng with Jian Yiling, the two of them had a unanimously shocked expression on their face.
The two men looked at each other. They did not know how to ask Zhai Yunsheng about the situation.
However, they were incredibly curious as well.
“Um… Master Sheng… Why don’t you give us an introduction?”
“Jian Yiling,” Master Sheng introduced. He only gave the two of them a name. However, this was not the information that they hoped to hear.
One of them could not hold back his curiosity: “Master Sheng, is she going to be your future wife?”
The other person stared at him. Wasn’t this question a bit too direct?
However, Zhai Yunsheng merely smiled when he heard the question. He did not refute the question.
However, he did not say yes either. Although she was a rabbit, when she was fierce, she was scarier than a lion.
Upon seeing this, the two of them were frozen in place.
Then, they glanced at each other.
What the hell was this?
Master Sheng smiled! He was actually smiling!
What did he mean by that?
“No,” Jian Yiling replied. Her voice was quiet and soft.
How cute.
Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng did not say anything.
However, for the two men, everything happening in front of them right now was too confusing. The two of them were completely lost.
After looking at each other, the two men decided to introduce themselves to Jian Yiling.
“Hello Miss Yiling. My name is Xing Wei. It’s nice to meet you. The kid next to me is called Han Mengyu.”
Han Mengyu indeed looked a bit like a kid. His suit was checkered in color.
Jian Yiling nodded her head.
Her response was rather reserved.
It appeared as though she was a shy and introverted girl.
Then, Xing Wei said to Zhai Yunsheng: “Master Sheng, you haven’t been going out with us lately. Is it because of…”
Then, Xing Wei raised his eyebrows. He knew that Zhai Yunsheng understood what he meant.
Initially, Xing Wei thought that Zhai Yunsheng would definitely say no.
“Mhmm,” Zhai Yunsheng responded.
It was indeed related to Jian Yiling.
Jian Yiling raised her head to look at Zhai Yunsheng.
Going out?
Going out to do what?
