Chapter 512: You Are Just Like My Life
Mama Lu did not want to do so either. Because there was still plenty of time for him to see Qianqian’s ability and character.
At that moment, she would not worry that he would deny it.
…
After the heavy rain at night, the sky of Y City was bright and clear.
The symposium that Mu Qiqi was about to attend was held in a prestigious university in Y City. Now, she was taking the bus with her team to go to the venue of the event.
Everyone was surprised when they saw Sheng Xiao last night. And when they saw Mu Qiqi again the next morning, they teased her.
“It’s just for a few days. Do you really have to bring your family along?”
“He has some business to take care of,” replied Mu Qiqi, “It’s just a coincidence.”
The bus drove into the campus and Mu Qiqi and her friends got out of the bus. At the same time, the other students from various universities also arrived at the university. When Feng Shanshan saw one of the boys, she nudged Mu Qiqi’s arms. “You were not there last night. I heard that the boy standing over there was the second young master of the mysterious family in Y City. I even heard that the eldest brother spoiled his younger brother too much, to the extent that it can be described as scary. There is no request that he would not fulfil for him.”
Sheng Xiao told her he came to meet someone from a mysterious family. She hoped it was not the same family.
“So? Are you interested in him?”
“Even if I am, I must get a chance to make him see me first.” Feng Shanshan shook her head. “Besides, once bitten, twice shy. I still think I should get a man from a more compatible background. I don’t want to make the same mistake again.”
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She just entered the campus with her team.
However, during the event, Mu Qiqi had a feeling that someone was looking at her. She felt very uncomfortable.
Mu Qiqi’s instinct was right. There were eyes staring at her back all the time. He seemed to be very curious about her.
He was Liang Muze. He was a man who always got what he wanted. So, he would be very curious about the people who did not take the initiative to approach him. Seeing Mu Qiqi sit in a corner not wanting to get involved with any of them last night, he started to get interested in her. After knowing her story with Sheng Xiao, Liang Muze became even more curious about her.
He did not have any other thoughts in his mind. He simply had the urge to get close to Mu Qiqi.
“You seemed very restless the whole morning. What’s wrong?” Feng Shanshan couldn’t help asking her when seeing Mu Qiqi constantly moving on the chair.
“I think that someone keeps staring at me.”
Feng Shanshan turned to the back and glanced at everyone. She indeed found the man who was looking directly at Mu Qiqi.
Feng Shanshan was taken aback for a moment. And she replied to Mu Qiqi, “You’re right.”
“I really hate such impolite looks,” Mu Qiqi said.
“He won’t do it I think. Everyone knows about you and Sheng Xiao. What else will he want to do?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “Just focus on the presentation.”
Feng Shanshan turned her head to the back again and looked at Liang Muze once more. He was still staring at Mu Qiqi. He seemed to be thinking about something. And of course, since his action was very obvious, the people around him had noticed it as well. He had been staring at Mu Qiqi intensely since morning.
This made Mu Qiqi feel very uneasy. She did not want to be related to any member of the mysterious family. She hated anything that would threaten her relationship with Sheng Xiao.
So, once the symposium ended, Mu Qiqi left right away. Even Feng Shanshan did not realize when she left.
Once she got out of campus, she called Sheng Xiao. But Sheng Xiao was having a meeting, so he sent Xu Che to pick her up.
Thinking of how restless Mu Qiqi was just now, Feng Shanshan approached Liang Muze and asked, “Young Master Liang, you seem to like staring at my friend?”
Liang Muze was tall and slim. He was good-looking, although not very handsome. But still, he had a well-defined face.
“I am just curious about her.”
“Please keep your curiosity in your heart. When you keep staring at someone, people will think that you are a pervert,” said Feng Shanshan and she walked away.
Liang Muze frowned. Then, he made a call to his eldest brother. “Didn’t you say we will have lunch together?”
“You can have lunch on your own. I am still meeting a guest.”
“Brother, I am interested in a girl.”
When his brother heard it, he was stunned. “A girl? You like her?”
“No, I just want to keep staring at her.”
“Oh gosh, I hope you did not scare her.” The man on the phone sighed. “You just go home. Don’t go for the program for the time being.”
“Okay,” Liang Muze answered obediently.
He did not do it on purpose. But he could feel that Mu Qiqi seemed very disgusted with him.
Since his brother did not let him join the exchange program, he would just go home.
…
In the office, Liang Muze’s brother hung up the call. He apologized to Sheng Xiao. “I have a troublesome younger brother. It’s so embarrassing.”
“Your brother is taking part in the exchange program as well?”
“I have told him to go home. He is a bit paranoid.”
Sheng Xiao did not say anything. The two continued reading the contract and the related documents. Then, they signed the contract.
“I hope we will have a good time working together.”
Sheng Xiao got up from the sofa and shook hands with the other party. “It’s an honor to work with Boya.”
“You are being too polite, Chief Sheng. I heard that your fiancée is also taking part in this exchange program. I hope I can find a time that suits you to have lunch together. As a local, I should host you.”
“Sure.”
Sheng Xiao managed to finish the three-day worth of workload for the deputy CEO in just one day. But the little one still had to stay here for another four days. If he knew this earlier, he would just do it slowly.
Soon, Sheng Xiao was back at the hotel. But right when he saw the little one, he heard her complaining. “There was a pervert staring at me the whole morning. It was so uncomfortable.”
Sheng Xiao was suddenly reminded of the conversation between the Liang brothers.
“Is he a Liang?”
“How do you know?” Mu Qiqi was shocked. “You can even find out about this?”
“No. I had a meeting with his brother this morning. I heard their conversation on the phone.” Sheng Xiao lifted the little one and put her on his lap. “Why are you so uneasy?”
“I think I might have a disease that made me scared of people coming to me. I’m scared that you might get angry.”
“You care too much about my feelings.” Sheng Xiao pinched her nose. “All the other women are always so busy showing off. But you, you don’t act the way people will normally do. You are being too careful to the extent that you are worried even before I sense any danger.”
Mu Qiqi was quiet. But when she opened her mouth, her words stunned Sheng Xiao.
“I think, you are just like my life. And I love my life.”
