My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

Chapter 95

The Second Young Master Fu was extremely naive, with all his emotions written plainly on his face. Shi Li was astounded, thinking, "How did the Fu Family raise such a simpleton?"

The Fu Family was a prominent clan, and the likelihood of raising such a gullible person was even lower than the possibility of a fake young master.

Fu Huixing couldn't help but glance at his cousin, whose face bore an expression reminiscent of the Three Stooges. In that instant, he understood why the Business Spy Lady had approached him.

He had always been puzzled about why she would try to deceive his second cousin, who was still in school and hadn't been involved in the family business. Given his personality, the chances of him accessing the family's core operations in the future were slim. Now he understood.

In this family, there probably wasn't anyone more foolish than his second cousin.

Targeting the second cousin was a low-investment, high-return strategy: the classic case of a fool with money.

As for stealing business secrets, that would depend on how the Human Trafficker Lady proceeded.

The Fu Family was rather traditional, and with the elders present, they observed the custom of not speaking while eating. Thus, during dinner, no one spoke at the table.

The Human Trafficker Lady wanted to exchange meaningful glances with her boyfriend, but the table was two meters wide, with steaming, fragrant dishes between them.

Second Young Master Fu didn't receive Qianqian's electrifying glances, causing Qianqian to cast her gaze around the room.

Shi Li, sitting nearby, inevitably became collateral damage. The 100,000-volt electric current coursed through her body, frightening her into quickly taking a bite of rice to calm her nerves.

"No wonder Second Young Master Fu couldn't resist; even I, a woman, am feeling my heart flutter," Shi Li thought.

Normally, Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu would accompany Old Master Fu for a walk around the villa area after dinner. With guests at home, Old Master Fu let his son and daughter-in-law entertain the visitors while he went for a walk with Old Zhang, the family gardener.

The couple deliberately wanted to send Old Master Fu away to prevent him from overhearing their conversation and getting upset.

Shi's father and Huang Jie had originally planned to chat more with the Fu couple after dinner to improve their relationship. But since the hosts had family matters to attend to, it would be impolite for them to linger.

If they hadn't already agreed to stay for dinner, they shouldn't have even imposed on the meal under normal circumstances.

While the Huang couple wanted to leave, Shi Li didn't. This drama had landed right in her lap, and there was no reason not to watch it. Usually, she had to actively seek out gossip.

Shi Li's parents couldn't hear their daughter's inner cries, but they could see her small glances indicating she didn't want to go home.

The couple thought, "Our daughter doesn't have many hobbies, she just likes to gossip. As parents, shouldn't we indulge her?"

So, the words of farewell they had prepared were swallowed back down their throats.

For the sake of their daughter's happiness, Shi's father gritted his teeth and discussed company collaboration and future plans with Mr. Fu.

This ordinarily unremarkable conversation took on new significance when Shi Li noticed Bai Qianqian's contemplative gaze. She instantly transformed into a screeching chicken in her mind, "Dad, you can't talk about this! Do you know who you're dealing with?!"

"She's Bai 'Business Spy' 'Trafficking Women and Children Maniac' Qianqian!"

Shi Li stepped forward, ready to be an impolite child and demonstrate dragging her parents home on the spot.

The quick-witted Ms. Bai Qianqian, multitasking, swiftly grabbed her arm and engaged her in conversation about clothes, bags, shoes, and jewelry: topics that would interest a rich second-generation girl like her.

Now Shi Li couldn't suddenly go forward and say she wanted to take her parents home. That wouldn't just be impolite; it would seem like she had mental issues.

Shi Li gave up: "Whatever, it doesn't matter. My dad's just talking casually anyway. The random chatter of middle-aged men shouldn't be taken seriously."

"Who conducts business secret negotiations in a living room with a bunch of people around, including outsiders?"

"Forget it, let them keep rambling. As for Ms. Bai wanting to listen, that's her business."

Ms. Bai was quite talented, able to chat idly with Shi Li while keeping most of her attention on the business collaboration discussion on the other side.

Old Master Fu had returned from his walk outside, and Shi's father was still talking.

He noticed Shi Li's glazed expression while chatting with Bai Qianqian and guessed that his daughter didn't want to talk to that girl.

So he consciously wrapped up his business vision discussion with Mr. Fu.

"It's getting late, we should head home. We can talk more another time."

"Yes, yes, let's continue our discussion another time."

Finally able to escape, Shi Li stood up, and Bai Qianqian, who had been chatting with her all evening, also rose.

She took the initiative to link arms with Shi Li, saying, "Chatting with you today was quite enjoyable, little sister. Let's exchange contact information. We can go shopping and be dining companions in the future."

Shi Li: ?? Something feels off.

Second Young Master Fu chimed in from the side, "That's right, you two young girls can go out together and keep each other company."

"Qianqian doesn't have many friends. The girls around her are jealous and often exclude her."

Shi Li thought, "Who would dare exclude her? She'd snatch them without a sound."

"I strongly suspect she doesn't have many friends because they've all been trafficked."

Second Young Master Fu said, "Sometimes I'm busy and can't always accompany her shopping. She's simple-natured, kind, and easy to bully. I don't dare let her go out alone; I'm always worried she'll be taken advantage of."

He continued, "You're Shi Quan's sister, so I trust your character. I feel most at ease with you being with Qianqian."

"You might feel at ease, but now my parents will worry about me," Shi Li thought.

Ms. Bai Qianqian's social media QR code was already thrust in front of Shi Li's face.

"Mom, save me!" Shi Li screamed internally.
