Chapter 276: Heirs
Upon hearing this, Sheng Hanjing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Sister, you’re so mysterious. Do you know how to read fortunes too?”
Sheng Yang’s eyes flickered as she said ambiguously, “Kind of.”
Due to her system, she couldn’t reveal too much.
“Anyway, be careful.” She leaned on the window, looking like a pitiful kitten. She looked outside with a curious gaze.
Sheng Hanjing smiled. Although he listened to his sister, he still thought she was a little too worried.
As a piano player, he was already very careful with his hands.
Sheng Yang wasn’t kidding, though. Her system told her that the next person she needed to save was her graceful second elder brother.
However, the system hadn’t made it very clear. She guessed it might have something to do with his career. That was why she was so concerned and became protective of him, because it would be too late if anything happened to him.
Second Brother was so gentle. She just hoped that life would treat him better.
Every time she thought of this possibility, her heart would ache and she would begin to gradually understand the depths of familial affection. Although she wasn’t used to caring for a person, she was a little curious about it.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you.” Sheng Hanjing was standing next to her. Sheng Yang’s head only reached his shoulder. The two stood side by side, looking at the moon outside. It was a very quiet and beautiful scene.
When Kang Weizhen came up to the second floor and happened to see this, she smiled.
Although Hanjing looked warm on the outside, his heart was actually colder than anyone else’s. He was very slow to warm up to others.
However, she could already tell from the beginning that Hanjing loved his sister. Because of his childhood experiences, he took special care of her.
Now as they continued to get along, she realized that Hanjing wasn’t tied down by the past anymore. It was because Yangyang attracted him that he truly cared about his sister and was taking initiative to warm up to her.

The next day, the sky was clear and cloudless. It was already winter, so the weather was getting colder and drier, but the sky was turning blue.
The whole family doted on Sheng Yang, especially Kang Weizhen, who was afraid that Sheng Yang would catch a cold in this weather. Hence, Sheng Yang was dressed like a little teddy bear.
Sheng Hanjing had gotten her the fluffy earmuffs she was wearing. He said she looked cute wearing them.
Sheng You drove directly to the security booth at the school gates. If it weren’t for the security guards, he would’ve driven the car straight in.
Other girls liked to look cute, so they were still wearing short skirts even in this weather. In order not to make their legs appear too chunky, they even wore thin pants. All the girls at Yan City High School were socialites.
When they saw Sheng Yang wrapped up like this, they wanted to laugh at first but then they were surprised to find that she looked even cuter like this. She was as exquisite as a doll.
It turned out that one’s face strongly determined whether one would be considered “chubby”.
Then, they looked at Sheng Yang’s legs. She was wearing so many layers of clothing, including a pair of leggings that President Kang had personally chosen. Even so, her legs looked slimmer than theirs despite only wearing a thin layer.
“…” The girls were so envious.
Sheng Yang was carrying a school bag and wearing a scarf, earmuffs, and gloves. She shuffled through the crowd and suddenly discovered that the students at school were very lively today. They seemed to be discussing something, and their faces were full of excitement.
Sheng Yang entered the classroom and the atmosphere in the classroom was the same. As soon as she put down her school bag, Fang Duo rushed in like a whirlwind.
“Oh my God, Yangyang, how are you so cute?” Fang Duo couldn’t help exclaiming as she looked at her face.
Ou Ye walked over and touched his nose. He also felt that Sheng Yang’s pink puffer jacket was different from her usual style. She didn’t appear as cold anymore.
Fang Duo looked at Sheng Yang and couldn’t help asking, “Yangyang, can I hug you?”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but rush over.
However, Sheng Yang reacted too quickly. She was already pressing Fang Duo’s head firmly. Fang Duo waved her hands at Sheng Yang like a zombie, while Sheng Yang held her back to keep herself safe.
Ou Ye was speechless and lowered his head, asking, “By the way, Fang Duo, have you registered for this year’s business war?”
“Yes.” Fang Duo came back to her senses and smiled. “Participation is important.”
In the past, Ou Ye sneered at her and annoyed her, but after seeing her score of 129, he didn’t dare to say anything.
“What business war?” Sheng Yang asked casually. She had already sat down and was flipping through a book.
Ou Ye and Fang Duo choked before looking at each other. After thinking for a while, Ou Ye told her the truth.
Yan City High School was a famous private school. The students all had solid family backgrounds and were groomed to be heirs, so every year, parents would provide funding and hold a business war with the other major schools in the country, including the group of heirs in the capital. They would compete to see who had the sharpest business acumen and the best management skills.
This business war had been going on for many years, and every year, major media outlets would scramble to report on it.
This was a world of power and it was a competition between tycoons. Many parents prioritized this business war because they wanted to see if their children could stand out in this competition and boost their families’ reputations!
Although Ou Ye and Fang Duo were often eliminated early on in these business wars, they had learned a lot as they had been participating since they were young.
However, it was different for Sheng Yang. She had grown up in Bailuan City where there weren’t many businessmen around, so it would probably be very difficult for her.
