Could this "Qin Immortal's" status be even higher than the old Immortal Xu He? How is that possible!?

Wang Bei was plunged into deep confusion.

As for the middle-aged man, he was stunned in front of the car. He had never expected that he would personally get out of the car to open the door and invite someone in, only to be rejected!

The Family Head of the strongest family in the province, personally getting out to open the car door, and yet, he was rejected!? This was simply unimaginable!!

In just that instant, the middle-aged man felt a surge of blood rushing to his head, almost suffocating.

How many years had it been! How many years since he had last felt this sense of being ignored!

But then, he thought of Daoist Xu He's attitude. That Great Grandmaster, so highly respected even by leaders of various nations... when he mentioned this "Qin Immortal," his attitude and tone were so respectful, almost like he was about to kneel in veneration as if before a parent or teacher! This Qin Immortal's identity was no small matter!

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, showed a gentle smile, and said, "Since Qin Immortal wishes to take a walk, then it seems I am not fated to offer him a ride. It is already a great fortune for this ordinary man to have seen Qin Immortal's esteemed countenance today."

"Hmm," Qin Heng nodded indifferently, lightly patted Song Ningran's shoulder, and said, "Let's go. We'll walk this stretch of the road ourselves; consider it a leisurely stroll."

"Alright." Song Ningran smiled and said, "The bus just now was quite stuffy. I was actually looking forward to getting some fresh air."

The two of them walked side by side.

Qian Zhenghai and Mo Cheng also respectfully said their goodbyes.

Wang Bei was completely dumbfounded, watching Qin Heng's departing figure in utter shock, and approached the middle-aged man.

"Family Head, who in the world is this Qin Immortal?" Wang Bei couldn't contain his curiosity and hesitated before asking quietly.

"I also do not know." The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, his expression becoming serene, and said, "However, there's one thing I do know: that old Immortal Xu He in the Jade Emperor Palace on Mount Tai refers to this Qin Immortal as 'Immortal Master'!"

Immortal Master!? The Master of Immortals!?

Wang Bei shivered slightly. As he watched Qin Heng's retreating figure, he slowly lowered his head with a reverent expression and said, "Alright, Family Head, I understand."

The middle-aged man nodded, got into the car, and said, "Let's go. It's our fortune that we could even come in contact with such an Immortal."

The road leading to the airport was different from the one taken by cars. It was not wide, just five or six meters, with lush trees planted on both sides, which made it difficult for cars to pass through. Therefore, it was relatively quiet.

Qin Heng and Song Ningran walked shoulder to shoulder, sunlight filtering through the leaves and casting a light on Song Ningran's cheeks, making her appear even more pure and beautiful.

Today, Song Ningran was dressed in a white off-shoulder chiffon dress, white stockings, and pink little leather shoes, adding a bit more playfulness and cuteness to her usual attire, also appearing even more girlish. She seemed to be around fifteen or sixteen.

But after all, she had a statuesque figure of 1.72 meters. The ample size of her chest endowed her with somewhat of a mature charm. This, combined with her girlishness, made her even more beautiful.

"Qin Heng, have you grown taller?" Song Ningran curiously looked at Qin Heng and said, "I remember you used to be 1.75 meters, right? When I wear slightly heeled shoes, I would be taller than you."

"Now, I can easily pat your head." Qin Heng smiled, raised his hand to touch Song Ningran's dark hair, ruffling it on top of her head, and laughed, "I guess I have grown a bit. I should be around 1.80 meters now."

"Seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys do grow up fast," Song Ningran said with a smile. "And you are becoming more and more surprising to me. You're really something, keeping so many secrets from your sister."

"Just ask away; I'll spare no words," Qin Heng said with a light laugh.

"I'd rather not ask; it's more interesting with a little mystery." Song Ningran gave a light smile, sweet and sunny, then her eyes twinkled as she said, "But I do have one thing I want to ask about. That person from earlier should be one of the provincial leaders, right? Why didn't you get in his car?"

"No particular reason," Qin Heng shook his head and said with a smile. "I just didn't feel like riding, and he wasn't someone important. Compared to that, I'd rather walk with you."

"Ah?" Song Ningran's pretty face turned slightly red as she gave Qin Heng a sidelong glance and laughed, "Looks like you've sweetened up quite a bit along with growing taller. Have you been sweet-talking lots of girls lately?"

"I've only been sweet-talking my Ran Ran," Qin Heng said with a light laugh.

"Tch!" Song Ningran gave Qin Heng another sidelong glance.

The two teased each other along the way, and time seemed to fly by.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at Yaoxiang Airport.

Security check, entering the station, and boarding the plane all went very smoothly, without any incidents.

「An hour or so later.」

The plane successfully landed at Tianhai Dongpu Airport.

Qin Heng took Song Ningran to his private metro and returned home.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw a familiar figure. It wasn't Qin Yun; it was Qin Heng's homeroom teacher, Su Xiao. She was twenty-six years old, with a beautiful face and a ripe, shapely figure that was strikingly attractive.

Today, she wasn't wearing her usual white shirt and professional attire. Instead, she wore a light yellow off-the-shoulder tee and white shorts, paired with silver sandals, making her look much more youthful than she did in her school attire. Her slightly curled hair fell loosely, and complemented by a pair of black-framed glasses, she exuded a mature allure.

However, Qin Heng hadn't had a chance to appreciate the view for long when Qin Yun snuck out, winked at Qin Heng, and said, "Brother! I bumped into Teacher Su on the way home from school yesterday, and she said she had something for you, so I invited her over today. Look, isn't this perfect timing!"

"Qin Heng, it was your sister who called me here. She said you'd be back today," Su Xiao did not play along with Qin Yun. Instead, she took out a stack of papers from her bag on the sofa and said seriously to Qin Heng, "These are the mock exam papers from the past few days. You need to work on them diligently, no slacking off and no searching online. They are essential for your college entrance exam results!"

As she spoke, she paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "I didn't expect your family to be so well-off, but regardless of wealth or poverty, the college entrance exam is very important. You must not give up. There's only one month left, and you're smart. If you work hard, maybe you can still get into a tier-two university. Anyway... a bachelor's degree and qualification are still very significant."

"Well, thank you, Teacher," Qin Heng said with a smile as he took the papers, expressing his gratitude to Su Xiao. Then he narrowed his eyes at Qin Yun, biting his lip slightly, and said, "I didn't expect my sister to care so much about me, even going so far as to personally call my homeroom teacher for the papers!"

"I, I just didn't want you to mess up your exams and get yelled at! You always make me do homework anyway!" Qin Yun smirked and said, "Anyway, I haven't finished my homework yet, so I'll be off!!"

With that, she dashed back to her room upstairs.

BANG!

She closed the door tightly.

"Qin Heng, seems like Little Yun really cares about you," Song Ningran covered her mouth and said with a light laugh. "Sibling affection is deep, truly formidable!"

"Sigh, there's no helping it," Qin Heng shook his head and said to Su Xiao, "I'm sorry for the embarrassment, Teacher. It's getting late. Would you like to stay for dinner? Ran Ran is an excellent cook."

"Ah? No, that's alright," Su Xiao hastily waved her hands, glanced at Song Ningran, hesitated, then fell silent for a moment before saying, "I need to go home to mark your assignments, so I'll be heading back."

"Then allow me to drive you," Qin Heng said with a smile. "I always believe in repaying kindness. Teacher, you came all the way to deliver these papers, thinking of my welfare, so I can't let you go back alone."

"This..." Su Xiao thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay."

Qin Heng was now of age and could drive.

He drove his red convertible Ferrari, valued at nine million, out of the garage and took Su Xiao away from the house, heading in the direction she had mentioned earlier.

"Qin Heng, I want to ask you a question, don't overthink it," Su Xiao said after being silent for a while in the car. She braced herself and said, "The girl who came back with you just now, who is she? The college entrance exam is approaching, and you should be careful not to..."

She had agreed to let Qin Heng drive her precisely to ask this question. She was very responsible toward her students and didn't want them to encounter problems at such a pivotal point in life.

"Are you talking about Ran Ran? She's a tenant in our house, a sophomore at East China Normal University," Qin Heng said casually. "We're just friends. Don't worry too much, Teacher."

"Ah, a sophomore? She looked only about fifteen or sixteen years old, I thought..." Su Xiao's cheeks reddened slightly, and she said somewhat embarrassingly, "Ah, it seems I, as a teacher, am overly sensitive..."

DING-DONG!

Suddenly, a message tone came from Su Xiao's phone.

She opened it. It was a message from her mother:

"Mom: Xiao Xiao, Aunt Zhao has introduced you to a blind date. His family is well-off, and he's tall and handsome. He's at the Starbucks in Changtai Plaza. Go and meet him."

...Blind date!? Mom, are you serious!?

Su Xiao was speechless. She had merely complained at home last night about the dearth of good men and not being able to find a boyfriend, and her mother had taken immediate action.

After all, it was a kind gesture from her mother and Aunt Zhao. Should I go or not? Forget it, I'll just go. A cup of coffee to pass the time will do.

After a brief internal struggle, Su Xiao didn't think much and simply said, "Qin Heng, could you please do me a favor and take me to Changtai Plaza? I have some things to do."

She had forgotten that Qin Heng was now driving a Ferrari—the one worth nine million!!
