Don’t Disgrace Yourself Further

Qin Zhen turned around and saw Chi Ming approaching, though he could not determine when he had come over.

Chi Ming's gaze appeared calm, but his demeanor was forceful enough to be impossible to ignore. His eyes shifted from Qin Zhen and landed on Shen Qingyue. With his long-fingered hand lifted slightly and a soft, familiar tone, he said, "Qingyue, come here."

Hearing Chi Ming address Shen Qingyue so intimately, with the couple displaying subtle familiarity with each other, Qin Zhen felt thoroughly uncomfortable.

Understanding that Chi Ming was helping her out, Shen Qingyue did not hesitate. She took a step forward and walked towards Chi Ming. "Have you greeted your friends?"

"Yes. They came early and have already left," Chi Ming replied casually.
