Chapter 323: Won’t You Let Me Marry Into Your Family?
“So, Young Master will surely let Huang Yao suffer a great loss this time,” said Jing Yun. “He will let the chairman remember it.”
“I also hope that Grandpa will learn his lesson.”
“However, if Sheng Xiao does this, will he…”
“It is almost impossible for the chairman to pressure Young Master. You know that Young Master has a big social network. He knows all kinds of people. Even a prince will give him a face. So, in this case, the chairman can only stop Young Master from working in Huang Yao. He cannot do more than that. By the way, with Young Master’s savings, even if he does not work for the rest of his life, he will have plenty of money left.”
After hearing this, Sheng Minglan was reassured. She nodded. In the Sheng family, Sheng Xiao was the most cunning one. A crafty rabbit had three burrows. Sheng Xiao was cleverer, so he must have more than three.
So, she had been worrying for nothing.
“Sometimes, Grandpa is just so heartless!”
“Are you scared? If he could do this to Young Master now, he could do the same to us in the future.” Jing Yun asked.
But, Sheng Minglan did not have the slightest fear. She rested her head on Jing Yun’s shoulder and said. “I will stay with you no matter what.”
…
After Sheng Minglan and Jing Yun left, Mu Qiqi asked Sheng Xiao, “Do you want to visit Dad?”
“It’s been a long time since I went fishing.”
Mu Qiqi knew he was not going there to fish. He wanted to let her grandfather and father know that even if he was no longer the crown prince of Huang Yao, he could still give her a good life.
Mu Qiqi was touched and kissed her man. “How can you love me so much?”
Sheng Xiao’s body was triggered by her kiss. He hugged Mu Qiqi. “I can love you more…”
In the bedroom, Sheng Xiao put Mu Qiqi on the bed. Suddenly, Mu Qiqi thought of the birthday present she got from Qianqian. Her face became red when she asked Sheng Xiao, “Why don’t we try the things Qianqian gave me?”
Sheng Xiao’s eyes darkened.
Mu Qiqi’s face was embarrassed that her expression was unnatural. “I just don’t want to waste them.”
Sheng Xiao tilted Mu Qiqi’s chin up and pecked her nose. “As you wish!”
Later, the bedroom was full of heavy breathing sounds and moans. The whole room was filled with the symphony of their lovemaking…
…
The next day, the situation of Huang Yao continued to deteriorate. At that moment, Sheng Xiao brought Mu Qiqi to Shen Mansion
When Grandpa Shen saw them, he harrumphed. Of course, he knew about the fight between Sheng Xiao and his grandfather.
Shen Jianchuan was doing his rehabilitation exercise. It was the first time Mu Qiqi had seen her father do the exercise.
With his daughter’s encouragement, Shen Jianchuan performed better than any other day.
“Why do you come here all of a sudden?”
“It’s my vacation so I’ve come to visit you and Grandpa.” Mu Qiqi smiled. “Xiaoxiao is talking with Grandpa.”
“That guy…” Shen Jianchuan knew his intention and smiled. “He doesn’t need to explain. Does the Sheng family have no idea about his ability? His action shows that he cares a lot about you.”
“Are you still worried when there is someone who loves your daughter?”
Shen Jianchuan patted on Mu Qiqi’s head gently. Of course, after some time, he had accepted Sheng Xiao. At least, Sheng Xiao had more guts and courage than him when he was young. No matter what happened, he would protect his woman first. This was what a real man should do.
When the father and the daughter were having a heart-to-heart talk in the rehabilitation room, Grandpa Shen and Sheng Xiao were fishing by the pond. Occasionally, Grandpa Shen would look at Sheng Xiao. “Are you going to keep on fighting with your grandfather?”
“He does not acknowledge Qi’er. That means he’s crossed my bottom line.” Sheng Xiao answered calmly. “Whoever bullies my sweetheart, I will let them suffer.”
Grandpa Shen laughed. “Since you are so free, then you should stay here for a couple of days. There are plenty of fat fish in my pond.”
“Sure.” Sheng Xiao agreed.
Actually, he should also inform Aunt Zipei who lived in the villa since she could not get the news about the Sheng family easily. So, he planned to bring Mu Qiqi there for a short stay. This would make his little one happy.
After Mu Qiqi helped her father wipe the sweat from his face, she went to the fishpond with him. Seeing that the two were really fishing, Mu Qiqi suddenly felt that such a life was actually quite good.
No matter what happened, the whole family would stay together.
At night, after dinner, Huang Yu grabbed Mu Qiqi for a chit-chat when Shen Jianchuan was talking to Sheng Xiao in the courtyard. “What if Old Sheng would not acknowledge Qiqi’s identity? What if he would not let you get married? What will you do?”
“What do you mean what will I do? Won’t you let me marry into your family?” Sheng Xiao asked Shen Jianchuan skeptically.
Shen Jianchuan gave Sheng Xiao thumbs up after hearing his answer. “Fine, you win.”
If Old Sheng came to know Sheng Xiao’s plan, he would go mad.
But Shen Jianchuan did not bother about that. As compared with the friendship between the two families, his daughter’s happiness was more important.
In fact, Sheng Xiao was indeed an amazing man, as if no one in this world could control him. But somehow, he had a weakness, and that very weakness was Mu Qiqi.
At ten o’clock, Mu Qiqi finally finished her conversation with Huang Yu, then only she went to the courtyard and said, “It’s time to rest.”
It was the first time Mu Qiqi stayed overnight in Shen Mansion although she was a part of the family for a long time already.
There were plenty of rooms. So, Grandpa Shen just needed to order the maids to get the room ready.
After the light was switched off and the two were lying on the bed, Mu Qiqi asked, “What were you and Dad talking about?”
“We are discussing when you can marry me.” Sheng Xiao kissed Mu Qiqi on her forehead. “We talked about our life, that we can be together for a very long time.”
…
It should be time to rest when the moon was high up in the sky. However, Sixth Brother was still working overtime in the office. He did not have the same capability as Sheng Xiao. He needed three or more days to finish Sheng Xiao’s one day worth of workload.
And these were just the basics. As for some more important projects, after their business partners heard that Huang Yao had replaced the person-in-charge, they refused to carry on the collaboration and hung up the phone right away.
Sixth Brother felt miserable.
In just two or three days, he had almost gone crazy.
The next day, he complained to Grandpa Sheng that he could not finish all the work. He also told him that he was not sure what Sheng Xiao had told the business partners and they refused to talk to him.
Old Sheng looked sick after hearing this. He knew the situation of Huang Yao after Sheng Xiao had left.
“I really overestimated you. You can’t even finish the basic work that Sheng Xiao had been doing all the while?”
“Grandpa, don’t you feel that Sheng Xiao is purposely doing this to me?” said Sixth Brother with great dissatisfaction. “Please give me a few more days, I will be able to adapt.”
