Certainly, they should consider this affair because the Sheng family would never reveal what had happened to the others. How humiliating it was!

But, Grandpa Shen felt that they might have treated the young master from the Lin family unfairly if they carried out such a scheme. However, there was no better option now.

At least, Shen Ruoyi could forget about Sheng Xiao if she were with Lin Muan.

Ill consider it. You may leave now.

HmmThats more like it. Cen Suyun sneered coldly. It seemed like Grandpa Shen was still humane and he was not that cruel.

They planned everything nicely but they did not even question Lin Muans willingness to comply with such a scheme.

Since getting to know Lu Qianqian, Lin Muan spent most of his time plotting against that little girl. He was thinking about the various ways to get her for himself. Moreover, he felt that it was such a wonderful feeling arguing with her.

After their previous meeting, Lu Qianqian claimed that she wanted to fight with him in the martial arts center. They had each others contact number. But, how could she win over him in a fight given how small her body was?

But, he did not know that Lu Qianqian was serious about it. She sent him a message in the middle of the night and asked him to meet her in the martial arts center the following day.

Li Muan agreed straightaway. He smiled subconsciously. But, he was unaware of how upset Lu Qianqian was. In fact, she could distract herself by going into acting. It was ruined by what Lin Muan had said in the end.

If that was the case, certainly Lin Muan needed to be held responsible for it.

Duan Shaoan was going to be sentenced for what he had done. He was the man whom she had loved for so many years. At last, he received such a pathetic ending. Although Lu Qianqian had said that he deserved what he got, she still felt a great pain in her heart.

***

The next morning, Lin Muan woke up early and left home in sports attire. Before he left, Grandpa Lin called after him, Come home earlier tonight. We need to go and have dinner with Grandpa Shen.

Sure. Lin Muan guessed that Grandpa Shen might want to meet them because of Mu Qiqi. So, he did not bother about it much. He did not know that Grandpa Shen wanted to meet Grandpa Lin because of Shen Ruoyi this time around.

Lin Muan saw that Lu Qianqian was beating the sandbag the moment he arrived at the martial arts center. He went over to her and leaned against the sandbag. Lu Qianqian was covered in sweat. I didnt know that youre quite a powerful girl given how small you are.

Get lost! Lu Qianqian was releasing her anger now. Her tears were mixed with her sweat. She seemed quite powerful at the moment.

Lin Muan noticed her tension. He wore a pair of boxing gloves immediately. Let me tell you now. You wont be able to touch even my sleeves given how weak you are.

Lu Qianqian was soon outraged. She rushed toward him and soon Lin Muan was lying underneath her. She threw punches at him vigorously.

Lin Muan quickly counterattacked her. They rolled around on the floor. At last, Lin Muan managed to defeat Lu Qianqian. Are you trying to sharpen your kitty paws? Youre indeed a little feisty one.

Who asked you to ruin my dream of becoming a star? Thats why Im so upset!

Just because of a supporting role? Do you have to act like this?

You dont understand! Lu Qianqian shoved him away and got up. She wiped away her tears and sweat. Im in a bad mood today. No, its not only today. You need to come and fight with me as long as Im in a bad mood from now on.

Give me a reason!

Just because you have an annoying face

Lu Qianqian did indeed have a bad temper. Mu Qiqi was much gentler than her. But, had she become like this because of her past? Had she been putting up a fake front just because of the injuries which had been inflicted upon her?

Fine, Ill do that but on one condition. You need to promise me to give me a day whenever I come to fight with you here. Moreover, you cannot reject me no matter what I ask you to do on that day.

Was he bargaining with her? But, Lu Qianqian did not reject him. Thats a deal, bastard.

Im not a bastard. Lin Muan was rather curious why she said that. He got up from the floor.

Just look at the works which youve written. You boast about men so much so that you dont even know what humility is. Youre just a man who always surrounds yourself with women. I hate this kind of man the most. Ill never fall for your trap.

Lin Muan laughed after he heard what Lu Qianqian said. He laughed heartily. You said that you wont fall for my trap. But, why are you standing here?

Im the one who asked you out!

Then, Ill ask you out in future! Lin Muan patted the place beside him and said to Lu Qianqian, Come and sit beside me. Tell me why are you releasing your stress here like a maniac? Why do you treat the sandbag like your sworn enemy?

Lu Qianqian had calmed down by now. She sat down with her legs crossed. That bastard is going to be sentenced today.

Just because of that? Do you have to beat the sandbag so badly with your little fists?

Lu Qianqian remained quiet because she felt weird at the moment. It was because she could not even bring herself to tell Mu Qiqi some of her feelings sometimes. But, she could do so with that annoying man.

Ill tell you a fact. Ill teach you how to see through men. Those men who seem to be nice and honest are always those men who are sullen. But, take a look at the kind of men like the Crown Prince and I. There seems to be no difference between us and the disloyal men. But, actually, were the ones who are loyal and dont play around with women.

You? Lu Qianqian scanned him from top to bottom. Your entire being is giving out the message that you want to seduce me. Do you think Im a fool?

Lin Muan burst into laughter. He then helped her up. Come, lets move it. Since Im at your mercy today, then you could make use of my body any way you like!

Lu Qianqian rolled her eyes at that man. It seemed like he would always tease women.

But, they spent an entire day at the martial arts center without knowing about it.

Lin Muan was smiling happily when he returned home at night. He remembered that they had dinner with Grandpa Shen when he saw him.

Im sorry, Grandpa Shen. Ill go and change my clothes now.

Its fine. Grandpa Shen waved his hands, indicating that he did not bother about it. Actually, he came that day because he wanted to see whether he could carry out his plan. He wanted to bring Lin Muan and Shen Ruoyi together.

Come, Grandpa Shen. Well talk while we eat.

***

Lin Muan knew what Grandpa Shen wanted after the meal. He knew his grandpas wishes too.

In fact, Grandpa Lin had mentioned to him before. He asked him whether he liked Mu Qiqi. But, it was clear that Grandpa Shen was not quite satisfied with Mu Qiqis birth and background. Now, they were talking about Shen Ruoyi. How perfect it was!

Shen Ruoyi was educated and gentle. Moreover, she came from a good family. Hence, the two old men had agreed upon it.

They did not even ask Lin Muan opinion about it. But, he was not angry because

Shen Ruoyi did not even like him.

But, he did not know that Shen Ruoyi had changed her mind all of a sudden.

Muan, go and visit the young lady from the Shen family if you have time. I heard that shes staying at the hospital now. Remember to go and visit her when youre free.

Sure! Lin Muan nodded his head and agreed to do so. It was a proper thing to do, visiting the sick. But, he might not be truthful.

It was obvious that Shen Ruoyi was not a simple girl.

Grandpa Shen was quite satisfied with Lin Muan. If he could be his grandson-in-law, he would be quite grateful about it. He had not even thought about Sheng Xiao.
