That Girl From Nowhere: Tycoon's Forbidden Sweetheart-Chapter 713 - 683: It Seems Someone Is Watching Me

Yun Qiqi slowly walked out of the alley and returned to the big street she had been on earlier.

She walked past the spot where she had stood and suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Gazing at the bright streetlights and the hurried pedestrians, a trace of confusion flickered in her dark, lonely eyes.

The sky was already dark, and snow was falling, not heavily, but enough to wet her hair.

Shi Yunshen opened a black umbrella over her head.

Looking down, he saw her standing still.

"What’s wrong?"

She slowly spoke, "I just walked by here."

Shi Yunshen was puzzled, "And then?"

"It felt like someone was watching me."

The Young Girl furrowed her delicate and beautiful eyebrows, as if pondering something.

A few traces of blankness stained her face as she stood under the umbrella, looking exceedingly lonely.

Her voice, when she spoke, was also light, ethereal, and lonely, "I feel... that gaze is very familiar, as if someone has looked at me like that before."

Shi Yunshen paused.

He knew this was certainly not her illusion.

Yun Qiqi’s sensitivity to being watched surpassed any human being. Since she could detect this unique gaze among so many people.

There must have been someone actually watching her this afternoon, and this person was special.

He frowned but still said, "Don’t overthink it. You haven’t been out much, who outside would know you?"

"If it bothers you, I can help you investigate."

After he finished speaking, Yun Qiqi stood still for a long time without speaking.

Suddenly, she turned and walked towards the side.

Shi Yunshen looked at her lonely and slender back and, thinking of her earlier tone, felt a pang of heartache.

He was just about to catch up and offer a few words of comfort when he saw her heading into a milk tea shop nearby...

Then, using the money he had just given her, she bought a large cup of hot milk tea.

Without getting one for him.

Shi Yunshen: "..."

If he felt sorry for this demoness again, he’d be an idiot!

Sipping her hot milk tea, the Young Girl’s lonely demeanor from earlier seemed nonexistent.

She bit the straw and walked back under the umbrella, squinting slightly like a lazy, satisfied cat.

Suddenly, she asked him, "Do you know where I can make money?"

Shi Yunshen hesitated, "Get a job?"

A look of deep contemplation appeared on the Young Girl’s expressionless face.

After a long time, she said, "I have things to do these nights, don’t follow me."

Shi Yunshen realized what she meant and couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, "You don’t really intend to find a job, do you?"

The Young Girl stood under the umbrella, turned her head without expression, and looked at him, with four words clearly written in her eyes: Why not?

Shi Yunshen could understand her obsession with earning money; anyone would be unsettled seeing a few thousand in debt on their credit, let alone her need to feed a cat and eat.

But...

"But, miss, what can you do?"

She had only been out for a month, spending all those past years in the lab. It took her a while just to adapt to city life. What skills could she have learned for making a living? 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Shi Yunshen had been following her for a month and hadn’t seen her learn any skills. Either she’s feeding a cat or buying food, or watching people perform cocktail tricks on TikTok.

Most of her money went on food; there’s no way she’d pay for skill classes.

Yun Qiqi ignored him and turned to walk into a nearby snack shop.

When she came out, Shi Yunshen’s two hundred bucks were completely spent.

She looked at her empty Alipay account and fell into deep thought once again.
