He was in distress. But he did not know that when he accidentally touched the phone that was lying beside him, he had sent a message to Lu Qianqian by mistake.
“Are you having s.e.x?”
His phone’s keyboard had word prediction after typing a word in a message. So, Lin Mu’an had unknowingly chosen that word. More importantly, he had sent the message to her.
After a while, Lin Mu’an received a message. When he read the message, he was shocked.
“??? You pervert! Are you insane? Or you want to be beaten up?”
When Lin Mu’an saw that line, he almost lost his mind. He was touched. Lu Qianqian had finally replied to his message. Although it was a beautiful misunderstanding.
“Yes…”
Looking at her phone, Lu Qianqian was overwhelmed. When someone who had not been in touch with her for so long contacted her all of a sudden, she had a feeling of getting back what she had lost. He was just Lin Mu’an. Did that sc.u.m deserve it?
“Eat s.h.i.+t, you moron.”
“Let’s keep in touch from time to time. I want to try making trouble as well.” After Lin Mu’an replied to her message and put down his phone, his heart felt light again. He whistled happily and went to take his shower. He had made up his mind not to behave accordingly anymore. He did not want to blindly obey his elders anymore. And more importantly, he did not want to stay away from Lu Qianqian anymore.
After Lu Qianqian read the message, she was annoyed and tossed her phone aside. Why was that sc.u.m so pumped up?
But somehow, she unknowingly smiled.
…
Since the engagement ceremony was around the corner, Mu Qiqi had a very important thing to do, that was to choose her dress.
Mama Sheng had indeed hired an internationally famous designer to design a dress for Mu Qiqi. And of course, Sheng Xiao’s suit would have to match with her dress.
So, they made some time to go to the premium boutique at night. When the designer saw Mu Qiqi, he was surprised with her young age.
After listening to the explanation by the employee in the boutique, he gave Mu Qiqi a thumbs up and said, “An eighteen-year-old bride. You are so amazing…”
Now almost all the outsiders would address Mu Qiqi as the eighteen-year-old bride. Some called her that way out of envy, and some out of sarcasm and jealousy.
Sheng Xiao sat on the couch with Mu Qiqi in his arms. He gave people a feeling that he was someone dangerous and difficult to get along with.
Mu Qiqi did not say anything, but Sheng Xiao said to the employee. “I want to change the designer…”
“Crown Prince, why…”
“I don’t like what he said.” Sheng Xiao said calmly. “I don’t care what you say behind my back. But when you are with me, you must control your mouth, or you will pay the price. I heard you what you were implying just now.”
The employees were startled. Their faces looked ugly.
“Please forgive us, Crown Prince. They are all just making ends meet. Their lives are difficult.”
“Since you are aware of it, then you should not do things recklessly.” Sheng Xiao held Mu Qiqi’s hand and stood up. “Now that you have taken the measurements, I will come again to look at the design two days later. Remember, change the designer.”
When Mu Qiqi saw Sheng Xiao protecting her in all sorts of ways, she couldn’t help but say, “Xiaoxiao, what they said is not that awful actually. Don’t you feel tired if you always act like that?”
“Are you trying to be a good person now?” Sheng Xiao glanced at her. “If I don’t show them my att.i.tude now, they will really think that I am just fooling around.”
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She just hugged Sheng Xiao’s arm.
Because she was going to be the little bride that everyone would be envious of. However, she knew clearly that she would only have Sheng Xiao after joining the Sheng family. Even Mama Sheng’s concern for her was not totally sincere yet.
So, Sheng Xiao was doing everything he could to establish her prestige. He protected her because he wanted to warn the people that they could not simply touch his woman.
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. But Sheng Xiao understood her silence. “Are you tired already?”
“I feel tired for you.” Mu Qiqi said helplessly. “I have not done anything, especially for you.”
“You will know if I am tired or not later.” Sheng Xiao implied. Then, he brought Mu Qiqi to Jing Ting. This was the place where they would be living in, so Sheng Xiao brought Mu Qiqi here to take a look first.
“This villa has been here for decades. Quite a few generations of people had lived here before. But it has been renovated frequently, so it is well preserved.”
Mu Qiqi was about to say something when they were standing downstairs. But Sheng Xiao picked her up and headed to the villa.
“Xiaoxiao…”
“I haven’t let allowed people to mess with the furnis.h.i.+ngs. I just asked my mother to change the bed and the sheets. Let’s go and try it out now.”
“Hey…”
Mu QIqi wanted to resist. But when they entered their new love house, she was amazed. The bathtub was right in the bedroom and the whole house was full of French romanticism. It was like a n.o.bleman’s home.
“You feel depressed actually, right?” Sheng Xiao leaned his body against hers. But he did not do anything. He just asked.
“Huh?”
“The Sheng family. And the outsiders. They are pressuring you.” Sheng Xiao elaborated.
Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao seriously. “But I still want to stay by your side. I want to be your bride…”
“Qi’er, before I met you, I felt lonely. But when you come into my life, I feel alive. I feel that life is not that boring anymore. So, I must grab hold of you and not let you leave now. because you have your aunt, your grandfather and your father. But I, I only have you.”
After listening to Sheng Xiao’s confession, Mu Qiqi pitied the man. Such an arrogant man. Such a G.o.dlike man. He had actually told her he was lonely.
However, she could understand his loneliness.
The more powerful a family was, the lesser the true feelings they would have for each other. Even the members of a small family would take advantage of each other, not to mention a diamond empire like Huang Yao.
Who would not want to get a diamond?
So, she kissed Sheng Xiao on his lips. “In my heart, you are always the Sheng Xiao that I’ve had a crush on. The one who brought me to the Ferris Wheel, the one who brought me to the revolving restaurant and the one who brought me to get the tattoo. So, I will not leave you. Even if the Sheng family is h.e.l.l. I will still walk into it for you.”
“Good.” Sheng Xiao kissed Mu Qiqi’s neck.
“So, when there is any problem in the Sheng family, you can tell me frankly. I am your little bride. But my heart is not small. It can carry a lot of things.”
“But what if the Sheng family is planning to humiliate you during the engagement ceremony?”
“Then I will make them embarra.s.sed ten times more than me!” Mu Qiqi said confidently. Because she believed that her greatest a.s.set was herself.
She would not change herself for any reason.
As long as she had her bottom lines, she would not lose her principles of facing the others.
To her, if the Sheng family humiliate her, it would mean that they were torturing Sheng Xiao. She would not yield like a doormat. She needed to protect Xiaoxiao as well.
Because how strong this man was outside was how weak he was in front of her.
