“Then, when shall we tell Qiqi the truth?”
It was what he was most unwilling to face. It was because his little girl had endured and suffered much. It was enough…
“I’ll talk to her when the time comes.” Sheng Xiao said to Su Zipei. “I don’t want to conceal the truth from her. She claims that she’s an adult now. She should have the right to know.
“Moreover, I believe that my woman possesses that kind of endurance.”
Su Zipei nodded her head when she heard that. “After going through so much in her life, Qiqi needs neither our consolation nor worry. She knows how to tackle it herself.”
“It’s easy to reveal the truth to Mu Tangxue unintentionally. I’ll pretend that I’m going to investigate the past and go to meet Mr. Mu Xiao. Then, I’ll tell him about it unintentionally. I’m sure he will tell the Mu family about it.
“When it’s the time, I’ll go and meet him immediately!
“It’s not convenient for me to meet the Mu family. So, all I have is you,” Sheng Xiao said to Su Zipei. “At least, we still can’t let them know that I’m the one who’s been backing Qiqi. When it’s the right time and we’re sure that the Mu family can do nothing else to harm her, then I’ll go and meet them.”
“I understand.” Su Zipei nodded her head. “Then, I’ll wait for your news. Young Master Sheng, Qiqi’s birth and background are quite complicated. How about the two of you? What about your future?”
‘Are you talking about the Sheng family?” Suddenly, Sheng Xiao looked toward the door of the study and remained cold. “I’ll plan everything out for Qiqi. You don’t have to worry about it!”
“Young Master Sheng, I’ll do anything as long as it can help you and Qiqi. You just have to ask…
“Qiqi is my only family now. If I don’t help her, who should I help?”
Sheng Xiao knew how Su Zipei treated Mu Qiqi. She always treated her as her own daughter.
“If that’s what you want, lead a good life.”
Mu Qiqi had all kinds of thoughts when she sat in the living room. What was there to hide from her?
Surely, it was not a good thing since they needed to conceal it from her.
Soon, Sheng Xiao and Su Zipei left the study. Sheng Xiao then waved at Mu Qiqi. “Come let’s go home now…”
Mu Qiqi nodded her head and followed close behind Sheng Xiao. When they got into the car, Sheng Xiao asked Mu Qiqi, “Have you ever thought about the possibility that you don’t belong to the Mu family?”
Mu Qiqi was stunned for a few seconds. Then, she nodded her head. “I’ve never regarded myself as one of them.”
“I’m serious!”
Mu Qiqi felt that what Sheng Xiao was going to say was not as simple as that. So, she replied seriously, “Yes. I always thought that I was the odd one out in the Mu family since young. It’s because they are good at pretending and acting, especially Mu Tangxue. But, why aren’t I the same family as them, given that I look just like Mu Tangxue?”
Sheng Xiao remained quiet. But, his face remained cold and dark. Mu Qiqi felt that he was holding himself back.
Mu Qiqi waited for him to say something more but Sheng Xiao remained quiet.
Until they reached their new home…
Sheng Xiao led Mu Qiqi to the study. Then, he placed the DNA report in front of her. “Read it yourself.”
“Whose DNA reports are these?” Mu Qiqi tore off the envelope and asked Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao took off his s.h.i.+rt and his brown upper body was revealed. Then, he sat down beside Mu Qiqi and hugged her as she was opening the yellow envelope.
Mu Qiqi could smell Sheng Xiao now. It was a nice scent and it distracted her.
So, she pushed him aside slightly. “Don’t get too close to me. I can’t focus on the report.”
“Nonsense! Read it faster. You’ll need my chest later.”
Mu Qiqi was helpless but she could do nothing but let him be. Sheng Xiao had always held himself back in front of Mu Qiqi. He neither talked badly to her nor teased her seriously.
But, his little gestures still showed his nature as the devil sometimes.
Mu Qiqi held the report and leaned against Sheng Xiao’s chest. She started reading it seriously. But, she did not seem as sad as Sheng Xiao thought she would be after she knew about the truth. She only sighed.
“So, I belong to the Shen family while Mu Tangxue belongs to the Mu family.”
Sheng Xiao turned her to face him. He watched her facial expression. “How come you’re not sad?”
“Why should I be sad?” Mu Qiqi retorted to Sheng Xiao. “Shouldn’t I be happy about it? That b.a.s.t.a.r.d is not my dad. Do you know how lucky I am?”
Sheng Xiao hugged Mu Qiqi and let her hide her head inside his embrace.
“You should be happy indeed. The Mu family is nothing if compared to the Shen family in terms of its influence and power in Jianchuan. Now, you’ve become Young Lady Shen all of a sudden after being disowned by the Mu family. Your current status and power are nothing like what you have before.”
“You do know that I care not about those things.” Mu Qiqi smiled. “I’m just lucky that I’m not related to that cruel b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
“So, it’s fine that I know about it now. I feel that it’s the kind of life I want being here with you. I don’t have to go back to the Shen family.”
“You must return to the Shen family.” Sheng Xiao said to Mu Qiqi. “You have a true family. Moreover, your aunt and I plan to use it against Papa Mu and Mu Tangxue.”
“Hmm?”
Sheng Xiao laughed softly when he realized that Mu Qiqi was not sad at all. He was relieved. “Young Lady Shen, you’ve suffered a lot in the Mu family before. Surely, we must take revenge on them. Moreover, what right does Mu Tangxue have to bully you?”
“You…” Mu Qiqi laughed helplessly.
“Is that what my aunt and you have been discussing in the study? Are you afraid that I can’t take it?”
“Since you’ve gone through a lot lately…”
Mu Qiqi scoffed, seemingly afraid of nothing. “Who would I be afraid of now?”
“Not afraid?” Sheng Xiao’s eyes darkened. Then, he put his hand inside her clothes from in front of her.
Mu Qiqi soon retreated. She raised her hand in surrender. “I’m afraid…Xiaoxiao, please let me go.”
Sheng Xiao then turned and lifted her up. He put her on the desk. He pressed her against the DNA report. “Fine, I’ll let you go now!”
But, it did not seem like it!
Sheng Xiao’s kisses were filled with l.u.s.t and they were hot. Mu Qiqi could not even resist him. She could only support herself helplessly by leaning into Sheng Xiao’s chest. Soon, she felt a tinge of coldness all over her body because her clothes were torn off and thrown down on the floor in the study by Sheng Xiao.
“Xiaoxiao…slower.”
Sheng Xiao laughed softly and hugged Mu Qiqi’s thin waist. They became one perfectly without leaving any s.p.a.ce between them
Mu Qiqi could not help but flush deeply because of Sheng Xiao’s body heat. Her heart thumped wildly in nervousness.
Although they’ve gone through that so many times now, Mu Qiqi was still shy each time.
