Chapter 272 - Can You?
Chapter 272: Can You?
Seventh Sister was the one at fault, so of course she could not defend herself. Besides, Sheng Xiao had warned her before, and he was just keeping his promise.
So, no matter how hard she cried, nobody would pity her.
Even worse, she had made Mama Sheng angry.
“Minghui, I have always treated you with love and care. But why must you keep on causing Qiqi and Sheng Xiao trouble? I have never expected that you would be so vicious and let people damage Qiqi’s reputation. What good is this for you? I was even planning to apologize for what my son had done to you. but now that I know the truth, I really want to say this to you. Serves you right! Father, don’t say that I am bad. As her elder, I have taken very good care of her. But, I did not expect that she would do such a thing to my son and my daughter-in-law. Even if your father is here, you have no reason to side with her.”
“Alright now. Isn’t what they did to each other the same? It’s just a trivial matter. Must we make a fuss out of it?”
Actually, Grandpa Sheng was implying that they should not have made a fuss just for the outsider, Mu Qiqi.
But, he did not want to take sides with either of them. So, he chose to escape from the problem.
“Please don’t bring up such things in front of me again.”
Sheng Xiao stared at Sheng Minghui. His eyes showed no fear.
If she wanted to continue the battle, he could fight to the end.
“One day, you will regret treating your cousins this way just for an outsider!” Sheng Minghui had no choice but to storm back to her room, As for Sheng Xiao, he had to listen to the nagging of the other Shengs.
“Scumbag. She is your cousin. How could you ruin her reputation?” Papa Sheng scolded him.
Actually, they all knew that if Sheng Xiao really wanted to ruin Sheng Minghui’s reputation, he would not have just brought the man into Sheng Mansion and let him lie in her bathtub. This was just a warning to remind her to have some self-awareness. They knew that nothing bad would happen to her if it happened in Sheng Mansion.
“Sheng Xiao, don’t mind him. You have done nothing wrong.” Mama Sheng went against her husband’s stance.
Sheng Xiao gave an indifferent shrug and beckoned Mu Qiqi. “Let’s go home, Qi’er.”
And before they left Sheng Mansion, Sheng Xiao winked at Sheng Minglan, telling her that everything was ready.
Although they had put fought with Seventh Sister tonight, deep in their heart, they were certain that Grandpa Sheng was the one who wanted to get rid of Mu Qiqi.
…
On the way home, Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao quietly. Sheng Xiao noticed it and asked. “Why are you looking at me?”
“We have just gotten engaged for a few days. But you have already fought with the Shengs so many times.”
“The school is your business and the Sheng family is my business. No matter how many times they want to fight, I will play along. I am not afraid of trouble. Someday, they will learn their lesson and stop.”
“But the Sheng family will lose their last bit of kinship because of me.”
Sheng Xiao chuckled. He stopped his car in the garage. “Do you think that the Sheng family has such a thing before you come?”
“Xiaoxiao…”
“It’s late. Let’s wash up and sleep.” Sheng Xiao got out of the car and walked into their home.
Mu Qiqi followed suit. Suddenly, she ran toward him and hugged him tightly. “Don’t be angry.”
“It’s good that you know.” Sheng Xiao smiled lightly. “Qi’er, you must understand this. It is useless to talk to the Shengs. If I can talk them through, I would not have done such a thing to them. Also, it is impossible for me to pardon the person who harms you. So, if I need to fight, I will. I will protect you as long as I am still alive.”
“I know,” replied Mu Qiqi.
Sheng Xiao was the only one who could convince her. Because everything that he had done was for her. She had no reason to question this man. Even though she was worried that Xiaoxiao would lose his family because of her.
Sheng Xiao heard her reply and turned around. He cupped her face and kissed her lips. “You heartless little one.”
“Since when?” Mu Qiqi reached her hand out and triggered his desire.
His desire exploded. Sheng Xiao pinned her at the door and started kissing her wildly. They kissed from the door to the living room.
They fell on the couch. Then, Mu Qiqi rolled over and whispered to her man. “Don’t move.”
Sheng Xiao stopped moving and looked at Mu Qiqi.
Mu Qiqi kissed him on his sensitive spot. Immediately, Sheng Xiao’s pupils dilated.
“You are the one who asks for it…”
“Shh.” Mu Qiqi stopped him from making a sound. She smiled. “Tonight, I want to be the one on top.”
“Can you?” Sheng Xiao mocked her. She used to be the one who received it, and now she wanted to be the one in charge?
“Let’s go to the bedroom…”
…
On the other hand, Sheng Minghui was shivering out of fear in her room. She was scared that there would be another man appearing in her room again. Then, her reputation would be ruined. She did not expect that Sheng Xiao could be so bold just for Mu Qiqi. She was his cousin!
He was crazy. He had gone insane!
Sheng Minghui did not want to accept defeat. But even Grandpa Sheng could not do anything, how could she?
Thinking of this, Sheng Minghui switched on all the lights in her room and locked her door.
Sheng Xiao, that scum, she would never forget this!
So, Sheng Minghui stayed awake in her room all night. She felt miserable. The next morning, she went to Grandpa Sheng again.
“Grandpa, just you wait. If you don’t control Sheng Xiao, he will someday go against us for Mu Qiqi. Isn’t he relying on his position as the crown prince and your favor to be able to act so recklessly? I don’t think he will still be so arrogant if you show him your power.”
Grandpa Sheng wanted to teach his grandson a good lesson as well so that he would be more obedient. But Seventh Sister did not think of the consequences.
“But you don’t know how capable he is. Do you know how many business contracts he can get in just one single day? No matter how difficult it is, once Sheng Xiao takes charge, there is nothing he cannot settle.” For this reason alone, Grandpa Sheng will still be in favor of this grandson.
After all, as the young lady of the Sheng family, Sheng Minghui had never contributed to the family.
“Grandpa, I really cannot get over it…”
“Then why were you so foolish? Don’t you know how smart Sheng Xiao is? How could you do such a foolish thing to him? You can’t blame him for taking revenge. Just bear with it for a few more days. When there is another good chance, I will inform you.” Grandpa Sheng comforted Sheng Minghui.
