Translator:EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor:EndlessFantasy Translation
Seventh Sister looked at her friend who had left in a hurry. She asked Sheng Xiao, You dont have to frighten her even if you dont like her.
Im serious. Sheng Xiao looked at Seventh Sister directly. Now, lets get back to you, Seventh Sister. Fourth Uncle Sheng, could you please give me an explanation? Why did your daughter bring another girl to my room one day before my engagement?
Sheng Xiao, your sister just wanted to do something for you. You dont have to be so overbearing. Fourth Uncle Sheng told Sheng Xiao calmly.
Its your daughter whos in the wrong now. Dont turn it to me. If you let it go just like that, Ill be more ridiculous from now on. I might send a stranger to Seventh Sister one day when I feel like it. Then, Seventh Sister could learn to be together with him.
Sheng Xiao seemed rebellious and fearless at that moment.
Fourth Uncle Sheng was shocked when he heard that. But, he could say nothing as a comeback.
It was because what Sheng Xiao had said was the truth.
If Grandpa Sheng did not punish Seventh Sister that day, it would imply that they were allowing Sheng Xiao to do whatever he wanted in the future. Then, he would be more reckless than ever.
Grandpa, did you hear what Sheng Xiao said just now? Seventh Sister was indeed shocked. It was because Sheng Xiao could really carry out such a scheme.
Grandpa Sheng took a deep breath. Then, he looked at Seventh Sister. Apologize to your brother. Moreover, youre prohibited from attending the engagement tomorrow.
She shouldnt apologize to me. Mom, please ask Qiqi to come here. Sheng Xiao turned around and said to Mama Sheng.
Mama Sheng nodded and got up from the sofa.
Seventh Sister was upset but her palms were sweaty now. She remembered what Sheng Xiao had said just now.
Sheng Xiao, do you have to argue with us just because of a young girl? Is it worth it?
I didnt do it because of Qier, grandpa. I did it because I dont like how Seventh Sister deals with things. Lets forget about who is getting engaged to me tomorrow. Just look at what Seventh Sister did. Shouldnt she be punished for what she had done?
Grandpa Sheng became angry too. Im not feeling well. Deal with it yourself.
Certainly, Sheng Xiao knew that Grandpa Sheng would blame Mu Qiqi no matter what he was going to do that day. But, he was not bothered about it.
He could not allow his little one being treated unfairly whether now or in the future.
He would tackle it if anyone bullied Qier. Then, he would deal with the other things later on.
Soon, Mama Sheng led Mu Qiqi to the living room with Fourth Sister. Mu Qiqi greeted everyone one by one after being introduced by Mama Sheng when she saw that there were a lot of elders.
But, it was rather awkward when they met each other under such circumstances. She could also feel that Papa Sheng did not care about her much.
Doesnt someone owe her an apology? Sheng Xiao sat Mu Qiqi down next to him. Then, he reminded Seventh Sister what she needed to do.
Seventh Sister was rather helpless. She walked toward them and said to Mu Qiqi, Sister-in-law, I didnt do it on purpose. Please dont be angry with me. I promise to treat you like one of us in the future.
Its fine if you dont cause any mess in the future. Sheng Xiao looked up at her. I also hope that you could teach your daughter properly, Fourth Uncle. Shes a single woman. Dont let her go and interfere in others business.
Fourth Uncle Sheng sneered. He and Seventh Sister returned to their rooms respectively.
The other elders left the living room too.
Mama Sheng and Fourth Sister were the only ones left in front of Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi.
Although youve annoyed some of the elders today, what Sheng Xiao did just now was unavoidable. Seventh Sister was out of line. Fourth Sister consoled Mu Qiqi. Xiao Qi, you dont have to worry. Thats how we lead our lives here. Its not because of you. Dont be upset over it.
Fourth Sister, I know. Mu Qiqi turned around and consoled Fourth Sister instead.
Fine. Seventh Sister was indeed out of line today. You dont have to think too much. Return home and rest early. Youre going to be engaged tomorrow. Youll be busy.
Look at your grandpa just now. He felt so angry. So, he might not attend the engagement tomorrow. Fourth Sister made her own assumption.
Its nothing. Hell certainly attend the engagement tomorrow. Sheng Xiao was sure of that. Then, he put his arms around Mu Qiqis shoulders. Mom, Fourth Sister, well return home now.
Go then.
Mama Sheng nodded her head. She sighed and said to Fourth Sister after they had left. I adore Qiqi indeed. Ill endure anything for Sheng Xiao. Its clear that Qiqi is not somebody who is prideful. She doesnt even value what the Sheng family values deeply.
Aunt, Ive never seen Sheng Xiao so angry at home. He showed no compassion for Seventh Sister. Its clear that he was trying to teach her a lesson. So. you dont have to worry. Fourth Sister consoled Mama Sheng. Moreover, Qiqi is not somebody who the others can bully easily. Shes talented and sensible. Were not sure how shell turn out in the future.
Mama Sheng smiled. She pointed at Fourth Sister and said, What a sweet mouth you have.
After that, they returned to their rooms respectively. Fourth Sister bumped into Jing Yun on her way back to her room. She called after him, Take good care of your young master, Jing Yun.
Miss Sheng, take good care of yourself too. Youve become thinner.
Fourth Sister nodded her head. Come to my room and help me to send Qiqi my gift for her. I forgot about it again.
Jing Yun followed close behind Fourth Sister dully. Then, he saw her handing him a big gift box and a small gift box.
The big one is for Qiqi and the small one is for you. I remembered that youve always liked robots since you were young. I saw a special one when I was in Vienna so I bought it for you.
Jing Yuns eyes brightened at that. He received the gift and said to Fourth Sister, Thank you, Miss Sheng.
But, he was the only one who knew how excited he was deep inside his heart.
Miss Sheng never forgot about him. She always bought gifts for him whenever she went. He always cherished her action deep inside her heart. It warmed him.
***
On their way back to Jing Ting, Mu Qiqi stole a few glances at Sheng Xiao. Although he seemed normal and calm, she could feel his anger clearly.
Im fine.
Youre fine but Im not. Sheng Xiao sped up. If Fourth Sister didnt bump into them, did you plan to endure it secretly and hide it from me?
Ive recorded it. I even planned to open the door and let them know that Sheng Xiaos woman is there inside the room. Mu Qiqi explained to him. Do you think that Ill endure it like that? Dont you forget that I was the one who defeated Rong Junhan. Do you think that your Seventh Sister is able to bully me?
I really want to see that. Does it mean that Ive robbed away your chance to do right to yourself?
Youre bullying me. Mu Qiqi stared at him. But, it seems like the elders of the Sheng family will not attend the engagement tomorrow sincerely. Theyll just attend it for the sake of it only.
