Chapter 766 - 765: She Has Princess Syndrome
Qin Youwei came to the small courtyard twice, and gave Beisitian many gifts, which naturally included precious medicinal herbs. Although Beisitian was a bit imperious, he felt that he had basically steadied this young Great Power.
"Dad, why do you have to give so many things to that kind of person? She clearly has princess syndrome!" Qin Wushuang’s pretty face was flushed with anger.
Qin Wushuang was Qin Youwei’s youngest daughter, now twenty-four years old, one or two years younger than Beisitian. She had accompanied Qin Youwei this time, and seeing Beisitian’s imperious behavior, she was so angry she could explode.
Qin Youwei didn’t know what princess syndrome was, but he knew Beisitian was much more valuable than a princess, so he said: "She’s worth far more than a princess. I took you there thinking that since you’re about the same age, you should be able to get along. If you can get close to her, there are plenty of benefits in the future!"
When Qin Wushuang heard her father wanted her to coax that woman with princess syndrome, she felt the world had turned gray. The more you pamper such a woman, the less she respects you; she doesn’t just look down on you, she orders you around to prove her worth.
"Listen to me, when has your father ever deceived you? Spend more time at the small courtyard, and try to build a good relationship with Beisitian. You must know, she’s really a Great Power, and it’s perfectly normal for people in such positions to be a little arrogant. Just treat it like coaxing a child—it’s not just about getting praise." Qin Youwei patiently instructed his reluctant daughter.
Unfortunately, if Beisitian didn’t have a family, he would have sent his son instead. That way, if things succeeded, he’d become the father-in-law of a Great Power, and how could a daughter-in-law not listen to him?
Though Qin Wushuang was very unwilling, she knew her father was right. Beisitian was crucial to her father’s position being stable and to the rapid development of the Qin Family.
If the Qin Family rose, Qin Wushuang could also benefit from it.
What’s the big deal with princess syndrome? It’s not like she hadn’t heard of it before. When the time comes, she’d ask if there were ways to handle her. Otherwise, just giving in all the time wouldn’t earn Beisitian’s favor.
Qin Wushuang had the gentle beauty of a southern girl, but she had quite a fiery temper. Her face was as small as a palm, her skin was fair and delicate, her eyes were large and beautiful—she was a rare beauty.
This was also the reason she didn’t like Beisitian. Whenever she went out with friends or classmates, the attention was only on her, so all male gazes were focused on her. But after seeing Beisitian, even if she didn’t want to admit it, she couldn’t help it—she wasn’t as beautiful as Beisitian.
If she was the type of beauty that was easily forgotten, then Beisitian was a star beauty, memorable after one glance.
Jealousy among beauties is not unreasonable, especially since Qin Wushuang inherently disliked Beisitian and her arrogant demeanor.
With these thoughts, Qin Wushuang still went to the small courtyard, sighed at the entrance, and pushed the door to enter.
As soon as she entered the small courtyard, Qin Wushuang put on a charmingly innocent smile.
"Sister, I’m here." Qin Wushuang’s voice was clear and melodious, as pure as a teenage girl’s.
At that moment, Beisitian was standing in the corridor while three little buns were playing in the yard. Seeing Qin Wushuang arrive, she gave a faint smile.
"Sister’s with the little babies? I’m so envious of you, sister, having three little ones at once. Sadly, I don’t even have a boyfriend now." Qin Wushuang sighed, but there was no real envy in her eyes.
What worth does it have to waste good youth on men and children? She wanted to have a few more years of fun.
"It’ll happen sooner or later; there’s no hurry for such things." Beisitian replied casually, then turned to her, saying: "Go get me a stool, standing for a long time is a bit tiring."
"Okay, sister, wait a moment." Qin Wushuang smiled as she went inside to bring a stool out.
"Not this one, the one with the cushion."
"Oh, let me go change it."
"I already said not this one, the cushioned one with a backrest."
Is that even called a stool? It’s a small chair!
After going back and forth several times, Qin Wushuang could barely maintain the smile on her face, watching Beisitian smile as she observed the toddler playing with the dog in the yard, acting as if ordering people around was no big deal.
This was truly typical princess syndrome; she expected the world to revolve around her.
After three trips, Qin Wushuang finally brought over a small chair that met her approval. Watching her sit down contentedly, just as she was about to relax, she heard: "Pour me a glass of water."
Qin Wushuang: "..."
What should she do if she really didn’t want to stay with someone with princess syndrome? Her own temperament was also quite proud. Even though she didn’t have princess syndrome, she liked giving orders. Now having to endure others doing it, she felt really uncomfortable.
Qin Wushuang stayed in the small courtyard for half an hour, constantly on her feet, until she could no longer bear it. She left with a taut expression, using an excuse.
Even after the main door closed, Beisitian’s gaze didn’t linger on her for a moment longer, but the smile on her lips spread. "Already couldn’t take it? I’ve got a lot more in store for you."
After sending Qin Wushuang away in anger, Beisitian leisurely sat in the courtyard watching the three little buns play. Whenever Cao Mei and Mango got too close to each other, she would separate them.
Qin Youwei was not the legitimate heir to the Qin Family. Therefore, he only knew the matters concerning the subordinate family, and he knew nothing about the twins, which was a secret only known to each generation’s heir.
Thankfully, he didn’t know; thankfully, Qin Xinyu still had the sense not to reveal this matter to him. Otherwise, Beisitian would not be so at ease now.
Holding up Qin Youwei on this side, Qin Xinyu accelerated the gathering of family members who could be gathered, accumulating more chips for himself.
Just when Beisitian was in a daze, Jiang Mingzhong came out and said, "Doctor Bei, Zhou Tielong is willing to pay thirty thousand for your medicine!"
Zhou Tielong, this person was quite patient, contacting them after so many days.
"Tell him to reissue the task and designate you to take it." Beisitian said.
Jiang Mingzhong immediately understood what he meant. Hadn’t they lost a lot of points before? Then find a way to earn them back. It’s the first time designating a specific person to take the task, but it’s not against the rules. It not only earns points but also gains popularity, making previously dissenting voices disappear—a triple win.
Jiang Mingzhong went to make the call back. Beisitian’s interest in artificial pathogens was apparent, but that woman was likely not to remember this matter, so her enthusiasm was quite low.
