33: Chapter 33 Qin Shiyu

The first-floor living room was spacious and bright. The warm afternoon sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows, spreading across the soft cashmere carpet.

Lin Wanqing had already woken up. She had changed into a loose white knitted dress today, with her ink-black long hair loosely tied at the back of her head, revealing her slender, fair neck. She was curled up on the sofa holding her phone, a faint smile on her lips, looking completely absorbed.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up. Seeing it was Qin Yi, her eyes instantly lit up with a sweet, bright glow. She put down her phone, stood up, and trotted over to meet him, her voice soft and intimate: "Hubby~"

She reached out and naturally took Qin Yi's arm, gently pulling him down to sit on the sofa. Her little head leaned against his shoulder, her whole body seeming to cling to him.

Qin Yi raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. Feeling the softness of the person in his arms and her happy mood, he asked indifferently: "What are you looking at that makes you so happy?"

Lin Wanqing immediately sat up straight, her eyes sparkling, and said excitedly: "Hubby, I have good news to tell you, Sister Shiyu is back! The last stop of her national concert tour is in Hai City, and it starts tomorrow!"

"Sister Shiyu's concert is set for Hai City?"

Qin Shiyu was a collateral branch of the Qin Family, but her parents had a good relationship with Qin Yi's father, so Qin Yi and Lin Wanqing often met her when they were young. She was currently a hot star in China, with both singing skills and looks that were peerless. She had an extraordinary status in the entertainment industry and was known as the "national goddess."

"Yes, yes!" Lin Wanqing nodded repeatedly, her tone becoming even more excited, "And Sister Shiyu also invited the recently popular musical talent Lin Fei to be her special guest!"

"Lin Fei?" Qin Yi raised an eyebrow, looking a bit puzzled, "I've never heard this name before. Is he a newcomer?"

He didn't care about entertainment industry matters to begin with. Furthermore, the music scene on this Blue Star was far inferior to the Earth of his past life, consisting mostly of simple, catchy pop songs. After listening a few times, he had no further interest, so naturally, he knew nothing about this newcomer who had suddenly popped up.

Lin Wanqing nodded again: "That's right, this Lin Fei is amazing. He's only been debuted for a month, and the few original songs he released have completely blown up the entire Chinese entertainment music scene! The whole internet is saying he is a genius songwriter. Even Sister Shiyu publicly stated that he was born for music and is incredibly talented."

Hearing this, Qin Yi understood in his heart.

Debuting at the peak and crushing the entire Chinese entertainment music scene—with a start like that, plus the so-called "original songs" and the title of "musical genius," he didn't need to think twice to know that this Lin Fei was, in all likelihood, another Child of Destiny. He was probably bound to a plagiarism system, relying on copying classic songs from his past life on Earth to become a so-called genius in this world.

He remained calm and said indifferently: "Sounds like he's quite impressive."

"More than just impressive!" Lin Wanqing immediately took out her phone and opened a music app, "The songs he writes are especially immersive, especially that one called 《Ten Years》. I've listened to it so many times, and watching the MV, it's like being there in person; it's really touching."

《Ten Years》. Hearing these two words, the last trace of doubt in Qin Yi's heart completely vanished. Isn't this the classic song by Eason Chan from his past life on Earth? This Lin Fei was indeed a song-plagiarizing Child of Destiny.

Interesting.

A trace of imperceptible playfulness curled at the corner of Qin Yi's mouth, and he asked casually: "When is Sister Shiyu arriving in Hai City?"

"Two o'clock in the afternoon!" Lin Wanqing answered immediately, "Sister Shiyu specifically sent a message saying that you must go to the airport to pick her up. She really misses you."

Qin Yi chuckled and rubbed her head: "Alright, then we will go to the airport together in the afternoon."

"Okay!" Lin Wanqing leaned happily in his arms, her face full of anticipation.

Time flew by, and soon it was two o'clock in the afternoon.

Qin Yi took Lin Wanqing's hand and got into a black Maybach in the garage. The car drove steadily out of the Qin Family Villa and sped toward the Hai City airport. The top-tier luxury car drove on the wide road, steady and silent, with a powerful aura that caused vehicles along the way to yield one after another.

Not long after, the Maybach stopped steadily outside the airport's VIP passage.

Not long after the two got out of the car, a beautiful figure that instantly made people unable to look away walked slowly out of the flight's VIP exit.

It was Qin Shiyu.

She was wearing a beige high-end silk waist-cinching long dress, the hem of which fell to her ankles. The sharp tailoring perfectly outlined her curvaceous and graceful figure, her shoulder and neck lines were smooth and elegant, and her collarbones were as exquisite as a painting.

A head of ink-black long curly hair hung naturally over her shoulders, and the slightly curled ends highlighted her skin, which was as white as snow and flawless.

Her features were as exquisite as a painting, her almond eyes clear and bright, her nose bridge high, and her lips a soft bean-paste color. Without heavy makeup, she still carried a natural elegance.

Her temperament was both cold and gentle. She possessed both the aloof nobility unique to a diva and the softness of a girl-next-door. As soon as she appeared, she instantly attracted the attention of everyone around her, and even the airport staff couldn't help but look over, their eyes filled with amazement.

Dragging a small silver suitcase, she had just walked out of the passage when her gaze landed precisely on Qin Yi and Lin Wanqing not far away. Her originally cold eyes instantly bloomed with a bright smile, like ice and snow melting.

Qin Shiyu walked up quickly, her voice gentle and joyful: "Wanqing, Little Yi, long time no see!"

Lin Wanqing immediately smiled and went up to meet her, affectionately taking her hand and shaking it: "Sister Shiyu, I missed you so much!"

"I missed you too." Qin Shiyu gently pinched her cheek, her tone carrying a bit of apology, "Last time at your birthday party, I happened to be out of town holding a concert and couldn't make it. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay, Sister Shiyu. It's the thought that counts." Lin Wanqing waved her hand dismissively.

After saying this, Lin Wanqing seemed to think of something and stepped back slightly, leaving space for Qin Yi and Qin Shiyu.

Qin Shiyu's gaze naturally turned to Qin Yi, the smile in her eyes deepening, revealing unconcealable tenderness and admiration. Over the past year, she had been busy with her national concert tour, her schedule packed, and she had almost no time to stay in Hai City to accompany Qin Yi.

During the days they were apart, she missed him every moment. On the plane, thinking that she would see him soon, her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.

Qin Yi's gaze also fell on her. As their eyes met, the corners of his lips lifted slightly, and his tone was gentle: "Sister Shiyu, long time no see, you're still as beautiful as ever."

Being praised so directly by her crush, Qin Shiyu's cheeks turned slightly red, but she still maintained the composure of a diva, smiling and lifting her chin with a bit of pride: "That's only natural. Your sister is a national goddess, how could I not be beautiful?"

The three stood at the airport passage entrance, chatting and laughing, the atmosphere warm and lively.

Qin Shiyu talked about the interesting things from her concert tour this year, while Lin Wanqing chattered away sharing the latest news from Hai City. Qin Yi spoke occasionally, his tone indifferent yet every word was thoughtful.

The longing from not seeing each other for so long slowly dissipated in the relaxed conversation.

After chatting for a while, Qin Yi took the initiative to take the suitcase from Qin Shiyu's hand: "Let's go, let's head back to the Qin Family first."

"Okay." Qin Shiyu nodded with a smile.

The three walked side by side toward the Maybach parked to the side. Qin Yi opened the car doors for the two, and Lin Wanqing and Qin Shiyu sat in the back row one after another, then he sat in the driver's seat.

The engine started smoothly, and the black Maybach slowly drove away from the airport, heading in the direction of the Qin Family.

Inside the car, laughter continued, the scenery outside the window sped backward, and soon the car arrived at the Qin Family.
