Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Qiqi had become a hot topic among people since the news of her becoming the crown princess was spread in Jianchuan. She had become a legendary figure after winning Sheng Xiao over at the age of eighteen.
Huang Yao beautified and used Mu Qiqi in all sorts of marketing events for publicity. It seemed like Papa Sheng saw his son’s engagement as a potential strategy to promote his business.
Not only that, he even summoned Sheng Xiao to his office the next day.
The father and the son seldom talked about personal matters. To Sheng Xiao, this father was someone unimportant in his life.
“Qiqi is a good girl. You should treat her nicely. She is the young lady of the Shen family after all.”
“But you should be aware of what your grandfather is thinking. Qiqi is still young. You have plenty of time to think it through. If you don’t like this girl anymore after some time, you can just tell your grandfather. He will take care of everything for you.”
“She is just a woman. You don’t have to be too serious with her. It is a man’s ability to get around with a woman when he has to.”
Sheng Xiao knew what was on his father’s mind. But he never cared about his thoughts. As long as he could get his little one into the Sheng family, then no one would be able to get her out anymore. He would make them leave the family instead if they dared to even touch her.
“And I will keep an eye for you to look for a good candidate to become your wife. You can look for one when you have the time as well. Qiqi is good. But she is not good enough. She cannot help you much in your career.”
“If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now.” Sheng Xiao could not be bothered to listen to his father’s nonsense. “If you have the time to look for a woman for me, why don’t you use that time to think about how to improve your performance. The quarterly business performance report will be out soon.”
Papa Sheng’s face darkened. “You d.a.m.ned thing…”
Sheng Xiao said nothing and left Papa Sheng’s office.
Jing Yun was waiting outside the office. When he saw Sheng Xiao coming out, he walked to him and said, “Young Master, Madam has ordered me to get a new residence for you. I have identified a few villas with excellent privacy. Before I report to Madam, you can make your choice first.”
“Put the papers on my desk,” Sheng Xiao said coldly.
“I have put them on your desk. It’s just the CEO Has he said something bad again?”
“If he looks for me next time, just tell him I am not around.” Sheng Xiao ordered. “And one more thing, report to me immediately once you find out that he is looking for a woman for me. I want to know which young lady he chooses and ruin his plan before he even starts it.”
“Understood. And Young Master, an entertainment magazine publication is publis.h.i.+ng articles about Miss Qiqi as if she were a celebrity. I am worried that she might be troubled by it.”
Sheng Xiao stopped walking and contemplated. “Just take over the publication and donate the land to the government. They can build public toilets on the land. It is time for them to contribute to the country.”
“Yes.” Jing Yun turned around and headed to the door of the office. But before he left the office, he said, “Young Master, you must protect Miss Qiqi.”
Sheng Xiao did not say anything. But he stared at Jing Yun for quite a long time.
Jing Yun knew he had done something unnecessary, so he swiftly left the office.
Sheng Xiao took up the papers on his desk and read through the information about the villas. He must ensure that the place provided the best privacy and security before letting Qiqi move in.
…
The news about the engagement of the two was spread like wildfire. Even Lu Qianqian made some time to ask Mu Qiqi out to a café nearby the university.
Mu Qiqi had become too famous all of a sudden. So, whenever she went, people would start pointing at and talking about her.
Lu Qianqian felt very uncomfortable when Mu Qiqi was with her. But Mu Qiqi seemed to be very calm and steady. Lu Qianqian could not help but laugh. “You act like a crown princess now.”
“It’s better for me to get used to it earlier.”
“So have you decided on the date?” Lu Qianqian asked enviously.
“Maybe next week, or next month…”
“I could help you to ease your anxiety backstage by then. But you know, I wouldn’t go to the event or I might cause you trouble.” Lu Qianqian said to Mu Qiqi in a self-deprecating manner.
“Qianqian…”
“It is good enough as long as you understand me. I am your best friend. I am the happiest one for your engagement with the crown prince.” Lu Qianqian started tearing up. She held Mu Qiqi’s hands and said, “You must always stay happy with the crown prince. Only then will be brave enough to pursue my own happiness.”
Mu Qiqi felt sad for her friend. She did not care about how people thought about her. But still, she did not hope her friend would be humiliated when she was under the spotlight.”
“How about Lin Mu’an? Have you been in touch lately?”
Lu Qianqian wiped away her tears and laughed. “That coward? Don’t mention him anymore. We have not been in touch since a long time already.”
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She simply moved close to her best friend and hugged her.
“You will meet the best man.”
“I believe so, too.”
The two friends chatted in the café for a long time. After that, Mu Qiqi returned to the villa. Sheng Xiao was already at home. He was busy discussing how to boil the easiest chicken soup with Su Zipei. Mu Qiqi looked at them and her eyes turned red.
“Qi’er, will you dare to eat the chicken I cook?” Sheng Xiao asked very seriously, sitting on the couch.
“Of course I will.” Mu Qiqi blinked her tears away and grinned.
Sheng Xiao nodded and followed Su Zipei into the kitchen. Mu Qiqi had no idea what they were talking about in the kitchen.
This man fought fiercely in the field of business during the day. But he looked totally different when he came home. Perhaps the Sheng family would be surprised if they saw him this way.
After dinner, Sheng Xiao took out the photo of their new residence. He said to Mu Qiqi, “It is Jing Yun who found this place. Do you like it?”
Sheng Xiao was sitting on the couch, hugging Mu Qiqi who was sitting on his lap.
Mu Qiqi took the photo and looked at it. “What is good about this place?”
“This villa is called Jing Ting. It provides excellent privacy. Moreover, it has a comprehensive security system. It matches all my requirements,” said Sheng Xiao.
“Then I will just go with it.” Mu Qiqi put down the photo and smiled.
After Sheng Xiao got her reply, he turned Mu Qiqi’s head facing him and kissed her lips.
Mu Qiqi was startled. “Aunt and Uncle are here…”
“It’s already very late. They should be asleep by now.” This shameless man would care less about where he was when his desire burned.
Mu Qiqi kept on looking in the direction of Su Zipei’s room when they were clinging together in fierce desire. She was very worried that the elders might come out or she would feel very embarra.s.sed.
But it was because they were doing it in secret that she felt electrified. They felt more and more relaxed with every time they o.r.g.a.s.med. It was when they went back into their room that Mu Qiqi hid her face in Sheng Xiao’s chest. She felt that she could not show her face to anyone for now.
This man was just so naughty…
How could he always carry a condom with him? Had he already been thinking of devouring her in advance?
