Chapter 863: Who Are You to Talk to Me?
This was what Sheng Xiao saw when he returned home, Mu Qiqi squatting beside Papa Sheng as she watched him paint.
He learned how to appreciate beauty.
“Eighth Brother, you’re back.” Mama Sheng looked at her son with a smile.
Sheng Xiao did not understand what her smile meant and frowned slightly. However, Mama Sheng took a few semi-finished products and gave them to him. “Your son is blessed.”
The semi-finished products in her hands were either of a strange color or were made strangely in some way. Whatever it was, there was nothing normal about them.
Even if one used their toes to think, they would know whose masterpieces belonged to.
That shockingly ugly cufflink back then was her masterpiece. Of course, she did give him a beautiful set of bookmarks.
Mu Qiqi saw Sheng Xiao holding the things in his hands and her face immediately turned red. “That… I’m not done yet.”
“Stop. Don’t waste resources,” Sheng Xiao advised her, not holding back his honesty at all.
“But…”
“What good things can you make? Those hands of yours only have a sense of beauty when they’re cutting up corpses.”
Mu Qiqi pursed her lips and did not say anything.
It was not like she didn’t know what kind of woman she was.
Sheng Xiao took the things to the study, and he shamelessly placed the semi-finished products on his desk. Mu Qiqi’s lips twitched when she saw that. “They’re so ugly. Why put them there?”
“They can still be salvaged.” Sheng Xiao took off his coat and sat down in front of the desk. “Since it’s a toy for the child, I should help.”
“You… How much better are you than me?”
Mu Qiqi could not believe it. Soon after though, she got drowsy and fell asleep in his arms.
Sheng Xiao hugged her with one hand, helpless, but there was nothing he could do. He could only let these things be ugly for now.
He was not going to be able to bring her along to the reception in a few days.
Xu Che had suggested bringing his secretary, but when he thought of the person in his arms, Sheng Xiao immediately rejected him. “I can go alone.”
Because it was like he had mysophobia.
He had only recognized this one person in his entire life, so there was no room for anyone else to touch any part of his body.
..
Two days later, Sheng Kai really sent Gu Ziling the divorce papers. When Mama Gu saw it, she was very happy. “Hurry up and sign it. That piece of trash is giving you the chance to live. Thank G.o.d.”
However, Gu Ziling did not care. “Mom, I won’t sign it. It’s all thanks to him that I’ve become like this. Now he wants to kick me away and find another woman? That won’t happen.”
“Didn’t you see that he’s going crazy now and even wants to hit me? How much longer are you going to waste your time with him?” Mama Gu was puzzled. “You don’t have feelings for him, so why bother?”
“I don’t have feelings, but I’m not willing to accept it!”
After saying that, Gu Ziling tore the divorce papers. “I’ll never get a divorce in my life. I’ll never get a divorce!”
Mama Gu let out a long sigh. She felt like her daughter had probably gone crazy.
Gu Ziling also felt that she had gone mad, but so what?
“I’m going to contact the woman who came looking that day. I’m going to ask her why she seduced a married man!”
Gu Ziling had waited for two days and two nights at the entrance of Sheng Kai’s house. And that night, she saw Song Qiaozhi drive to Sheng Kai’s house with a medical kit.
Then, Sheng Kai opened the door and let her in.
Gu Ziling almost went batsh*t crazy when she saw this scene.
The woman who entered knew that someone was watching outside. When Song Qiaozhi took out the gauze and medicine, she had asked Sheng Kai, “Aren’t you afraid that your wife will misunderstand?”
“I’ve already sent her the divorce papers.” Sheng Kai took off his s.h.i.+rt, revealing the hideous wounds on his body.
“But I think she doesn’t agree.” Song Qiaozhi sat beside Sheng Kai and took the scissors to remove the gauze for him. “I think you can be more decisive.”
Sheng Kai felt a little strange and tilted his head to look at Song Qiaozhi.
“I know who she is and what kind of person she is. Even if you are on the brink of death, she will only quarrel with you, find trouble with you, and trample on your self-esteem.”
Song Qiaozhi quickly found a way to conclude the topic.
“You know very well what kind of dangerous place you are in now. Don’t let these feelings drag you down.”
Sheng Kai’s mind was very clear when he heard that. “I understand.”
“If you need help, you can ask me for it.”
Sheng Kai didn’t say anything, but deep in his heart, he wanted this kind of warmth. Especially during this period of time, Song Qiaozhi… was kind to him. However, he was afraid that she might be his next downfall.
Moreover, the relations.h.i.+p between Song Qiaozhi and Jin Bo was too complicated.
He was single and weak, so he probably did not have the ability to interfere at all.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“I think we should keep a distance.”
Upon hearing that, Song Qiaozhi suddenly laughed. “It’s rare for you to be so clear-minded when I deliberately get close to you with an ambiguous att.i.tude. However, my father will trust you more when you’re with me.”
“Why do you want to get close to me? I’m just a scapegoat… I don’t have any power or influence, and I can’t help you complete your mission. Besides… I don’t have the ability either.”
“I see that you’ve suffered a lot from that woman. She shouldn’t be around you, so stop saying that you’re useless, alright?” Song Qiaozhi laughed. “You secretly helped Sheng Xiao, helped him save Feng Shanshan. This is your ability.”
Sheng Kai did not respond, but Song Qiaozhi’s words stirred up a thousand layers of emotions in his heart.
“If you leave her, you’ll be reborn.”
“A bug like Gu Ziling should be left to rot on her own.”
Song Qiaozhi unceremoniously evaluated Gu Ziling in front of Sheng Kai. “The medicine has been changed. Rest. My brother will be back tomorrow, and Jianchuan will be filled with blood again.”
Sheng Kai nodded and watched as Song Qiaozhi stood up. When she was about to leave, he asked, “What does it take to be truly close to Jin Bo?”
“You can’t afford that price.” With that answer, Song Qiaozhi closed the door.
Outside the door, Gu Ziling and Song Qiaozhi looked at each other. The first thing Gu Ziling said was: “He’s really impotent. You’ve only been in there for less than twenty minutes.”
“Miss Gu, talk to me.” Since they were going head-to-head, Song Qiaozhi didn’t try to escape.
“Who are you to talk to me?”
“Sheng Kai’s future wife. What do you think?” Song Qiaozhi smiled. “Get in the car and let’s go somewhere nearby for a drink.”
Gu Ziling’s expression did not look good, and she was deeply agitated by Song Qiaozhi.
The two of them found a cafe nearby and chose the most inconspicuous booth.
“I won’t agree to the divorce.”
“That’s not up to you,” Song Qiaozhi said. “Do you believe that if I tell your grandfather, he’ll make you sign it immediately?”
“Who… are you?”
“I… am your G.o.dfather’s biological daughter. Do you think Sheng Kai has a future with you, or will he be happier with me?”
