Chapter 428 - The First Song of Qin (1) (1/2)
After Jiang Zhan’s death, Shi Sheng took over the Demon Sect and led them into striking it rich. The Demon Sect became the local tycoon.
She got the Demon Sect to bury her beside Jiang Zhan after she died. Though she didn’t know if Wu Zheng liked Jiang Zhan, if the latter knew someone liked her that much, she probably wouldn’t object to it.
When Shi Sheng returned to the System Space, System didn’t say a word and flashed her stats on the screen.

Shi Sheng, “…” ‘The side mission actually failed… And my morality points have been deducted again, goddammit!’
Shi Sheng lowered her gaze to look at the items line. ‘What’s “Dark Night”?’
System didn’t give Shi Sheng a chance to speak.
[Do you wish to enter the next mission?]
[Initialising transfer…]
……
“Dad, Mum, I’m leaving.” A melodious voice spoke suddenly.
Shi Sheng sat bolt upright and swiftly scanned her surroundings.
She was in a room decorated in a European style and seated on the floor. The room was in a mess, as if someone had been throwing a tantrum here. There was also an easel that had been painted on to the side.
The room’s door wasn’t closed so Shi Sheng could vaguely make out the sounds outside. Soon she heard the sound of a door closing.
Shi Sheng got up to shut the door and go through the plot.
This was a novel about a romance where the woman was older than the man.
The FL’s name was Qiao Qian’qian, and she was a postgraduate at A University.
The ML was Tang Jinchen, the son of A University’s chairman. He was popular at school.
After a chance encounter with the FL at school, he fell for her at first sight and started courting her.
Because the FL was older than the ML, and because she felt that her status wasn’t compatible with his, she kept refusing him.
The FL was adopted. Her adoptive parents didn’t have any children of their own, so they went to the orphanage and took her home.
But not long after she came home with them, they had a child of their own.
Her name was Qiao Chu, whose body Shi Sheng was currently inhabiting.
At first, Qiao Chu didn’t know the FL was adopted and was very good to this older sister of hers. Everything she bought, from clothes to consumables, she’d get a portion for the FL.
But the FL had already been at the age where she could remember things when she was adopted, so she knew she wasn’t her parents’ real daughter. Hence, she deliberately distanced herself from Qiao Chu.
Qiao Chu was naturally able to tell. At first, she tried to improve their relationship, but the FL grew colder to her.
Qiao Chu was already pretty rebellious to begin with. The FL’s attitude pushed Qiao Chu into opposing her. Basically, it stemmed from Qiao Chu’s mindset of ‘the more you can’t tolerate me, the more I’ll annoy you.’
This continued up until the FL met the ML.
Qiao Chu ran into the ML sending the FL home. Naturally Qiao Chu knew the ML. They were around the same age and the two had been in the same school since junior high. Qiao Chu had a crush on him—he was the reason why she attended A University.
But she actually saw her crush sending her older sister home. When she got back, she had a big fight with the FL.
The FL felt like Qiao Chu was being incomprehensible, and had had enough of her, so she moved out and into the postgraduate dormitories in school.
