Chapter 48: A kept mistress? (Part 2/3)
Qi Shaorong took out a bank card and handed it to Qi Shaofu. “There are 20,000 gold coins on this. It is a bit of my appreciation for Qi Family. I heard that in order to send me to college, my father spent 3,000 gold coins. I didn't know that three thousand gold coins was already a lot of money for Qi Family to the point that Fifth Sister who was always very rich to constantly be shouting incessantly about this. It seems that without these three thousand gold coins, our Qi Family will be financially ruined.”
Qi Shaofu: “…”
Qi Shaoru: “…”
“You… how did you get this many gold coins?” Qi Shaoru asked, staring at Qi Shaorong.
“Ghost Doctor gave it.” Qi Shaorong said.
“Why would he give you money?”
“Because I have helped him with a few small things.” Qi Shaorong said.
Qi Shaoru stared at Qi Shaorong and said, “You… you are being raised by Ghost Doctor.”
[TN: being raised as in being a mistress, lover, sugar baby…]
Qi Shaorong: “…” Qi Shaoru this guy, his imagination was really rich!
When Qi Shaorong just wanted to say something, a familiar figure appeared at the door into Qi Shaorong's sight. Qi Shaorong's mouth curled, and he said: “Fifth Sister, you really can see the downy feathers of autumn. You are correct, I am being raised by Ghost Doctor.”
[TN: "See the downy feathers of autumn 明察秋毫 is an idiom that means being so perceptive that one can see the finest details.]
Qi Shaoru: “…”
When Zhuang Ling just walked through the entrace, he heard Qi Shaorong's “visionary words”. Zhuang Ling's heart twitched.
When Qi Shaoru just wanted to say something, Qi Shaorong turned his head and spoke to Zhuang Ling. “Professor Zhuang Ling, what are you here for?”
When Qi Shaoru saw Zhuang Ling, her throat felt as if it was stuck. In the principle that the family's dirty laundry could not be aired in the public, Qi Shaoru open her mouth to lambast Qi Shaorong in front of Zhuang Ling.
Zhuang Ling looked at the room full of people,took a deep breath and said, “What are you all doing?”
Qi Shaorong smiled and said: “Nothing, just chatting about home.”
“Student Qi, I heard that you haven't been going to cla.s.s. Can I talk to you alone?” Zhuang Ling asked.
“Of course.” Qi Shaorong followed Zhuang Ling and went out.
Qi Shaofu saw Qi Shaorong leave, and he sighed with relief. Qi Shaofu shook his head and bitterly laughed in his mind. Every time he talked to Qi Shaorong, Qi Shaofu felt an inexplicable pressure. This little brother of his! He didn't care about how his behavior would impact his reputation, and he dare say anything.
Qi Shaofu looked at the courtyard and said: “Shaoruan's courtyard is really nice!”
Qi Shaoru smiled coldly and said: “One thousand gold coins a year, how can it be bad? The capital city's most expensive money is not even this expensive. Qi Shaorong, this crazy maniac, is rich, but he shouldn't spend it this way.”
Qi Shaoru couldn't help but clench her fist and said: Qi Shaorong, this guy is really free and easy!
What was the matter with Ghost Doctor, this guy? It was difficult for ordinary people to find him for surgery; yet this guy is very generous to Qi Shaorong. Could it be that Fourth Brother had some sort of blackmail on Ghost Doctor? That's not right either. Ghost Doctor this guy was not so simple. If your own waste of a brother threatened this person, Ghost Doctor would had long since dealt with him.
“Shaorong has already left. We should return.” Qi Shaofu said.
Qi Shaoru said coldly: “This guy's shelf is too big now. Father can't even move him. The two of us come and he is still is the same revolting behavior as before, no moral integrity.”
[TN: Shelf is too big means too large of an ego and arrogant.]
…………
Qi Shaorong knew nothing about the conversation between Qi Shaoru and Qi Shaofu after he left.
Qi Shaorong set out and followed Zhuang Ling without talking. The two were silent the whole way.
Zhuang Ling looked at Qi Shaorong. Only after a long time did she said: “Young Master Qi, is it fine to ruin your reputation like this?”
Qi Shaorong said without care: “No issue. I don't have any reputation at all. Anyways, it will this way.”
Zhuang Ling smiled helplessly and said: “When you ruined your own reputation, you also ruined Ghost Doctor's reputation.”
Qi Shaorong looked at Zhuang Ling and bowed his head: “Professor Zhuang Ling, are you outraged on behalf of Ghost Doctor?”
“I am just talking casually.” Zhuang Ling smiled.
"Professor Zhuang Ling has heard of Enchantress Yin?"
Zhuang Ling nodded and said: “I heard of her.”
Yin Mai was a famous holy magician in history. She had an unfortunate childhood in which she was gang raped. After she survived, she became incomparably twisted. Once she became famous, she raised a harem of male pets. Every night, she would couple with a few men, but even that wasn't enough to satisfy her, so she sought out magical beasts.
“Enchantress Yin even coupled with a magical beast, yet everyone still admires her. As long as there is enough power, good or bad reputation doesn't matter.” Qi Shaorong said faintly.
Zhuang Ling glanced at Qi Shaorong and was rendered mute for a while before saying: “Young Master Qi's mind, the average person can only see your dust and has no hope of catching up to you!”
[TN: Basically this means that the average person is far inferior to Qi Shaorong.]
Qi Shaorong carelessly waved his hand and said, “You flatter me.”
