Chapter 865: How am I Not Good?
Tang Yan said this because after Feng Shanshan had been kidnapped, both of them had almost lost their lives.
If Mu Qiqi was in the same situation, who knew how crazy the man in front of him would be.
Half an hour later, the two of them returned. Mu Qiqi could not resist her biological clock’s warning and fell asleep in Sheng Xiao’s arms.
When she woke up, it was already one in the morning. However, when she turned around, there was no man beside her.
Mu Qiqi got up and quietly went to the study. She saw Sheng Xiao rolling up his sleeves to repair her broken handicraft. He had to work during the day and accompany her at night. This man had almost no time for himself.
Mu Qiqi took a deep breath and did not disturb him. After she returned to the room, she lay on the bed and pretended not to have seen anything.
The next morning, Mu Qiqi woke up early on purpose.
She went to the study again and saw Sheng Xiao’s completed little puppet. She happily held it in her hand and looked for the man’s figure everywhere. She saw her Master Xiao putting on his s.h.i.+rt in the cloakroom.
“When did you do this?”
What Sheng Xiao wanted to see was Mu Qiqi’s excitement. There was a faint smile on her lips. “I conjured it with magic.”
Mu Qiqi did not expose him. She hugged the item and was so excited that she could not control herself.
Sheng Xiao was satisfied with Mu Qiqi’s happiness. Then, he put on a dark-colored double-breasted handmade suit and matched it with a black and white tie.
After Mu Qiqi looked at it, she was a little puzzled. “What formal occasion are you attending?”
“I’m attending the Yashang Group’s reception today. I’ll be back late tonight. Don’t wait up for me.” Sheng Xiao took the opportunity to hug her.
“Are you a new rich man who just came back from overseas?”
“Stay at home and cultivate your character. Stop ruining your handicrafts, okay?” Sheng Xiao did not answer her question. Instead, he kissed her on the head and sighed. “Be good.”
“How am I not good?” Mu Qiqi mumbled. “There’ll be many pretty girls at the reception. Don’t look too much…”
“Idiot.” Sheng Xiao let go of Mu Qiqi and went downstairs.
He would definitely see Sheng Kai at the party today, and Jin Bo would definitely do everything he could to humiliate the Sheng family.
..
It was drizzling in the afternoon.
Song Qiaozhi went to Changrong Electronics to pick up Sheng Kai and then went to the airport to greet Song Bozhi.
As he had an injury on his face, Sheng Kai was focused on being the driver. A moment later, he saw a man in a beige windbreaker walking out of the airport exit surrounded by a group of people who appeared to be his subordinates.
Song Qiaozhi immediately got out of the car to welcome him. “Brother…”
Song Bozhi was not too tall, close to 1.8 meters, but his imposing manner made it difficult for people to approach him.
Hearing Song Qiaozhi’s voice, Song Bozhi only took off his gla.s.ses and glanced at her. After confirming that she was his sister, he said to the secretary beside him, “You take care of Miss. I’ll leave first.”
“Okay, President Song,” the secretary answered as she walked.
Song Qiaozhi chased after him, but was stopped by the secretary. “Miss, President Song wants to be alone, so you guys can eat by yourselves during the lunch banquet. There’s no need to wait for him.”
“So, is he going to the banquet directly at night?”
“After meeting Sir, he’ll go directly. Miss, don’t worry.”
“Alright then.” Song Qiaozhi didn’t force anything. She wasn’t close to him anyway.
Therefore, after returning to the car, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Let’s go home. There’s no need for the luncheon.”
Sheng Kai was a little confused.
“Jin Bo only has eyes for his son, so it’s normal for him to look down on me. We usually just exchange pleasantries.”
Sheng Kai nodded and did not ask any more questions. Even his own daughter could be isolated from the outside world. What kind of person was his son?
“Then, is there no need to attend tonight’s banquet?”
“Of course not. Zhongteng has also been invited tonight. Do you think my father will let go of this opportunity? He will definitely bring you to show off. You are now his G.o.dson.”
Sheng Kai thought about it and felt that it was undeniable. Indeed, this was his role.
On the surface, it sounded nice, but in reality, he was just a scapegoat.
“However, compared to my powerful brother, I still believe in President Sheng more. Jianchuan is his territory. It’s not my brother’s place to behave atrociously. Let’s wait for a good show tonight.”
“You know Sheng Xiao well.” Sheng Kai’s words were unclear with a hint of sourness.
Song Qiaozhi heard it and smiled. “I only believe in the righteous side, don’t you?”
“I know. You were the one who sabotaged Gu Ziling. What do you want from me? I’m useless to you.”
“You’re thinking too much. I just don’t want innocent people to be sacrificed. That’s why I’m with you. If I steal something from Jin Bo’s office one day, at least there’s one person who can cover for me.” Song Qiaozhi was very calm.
“What are you going to steal?”
“I’m not sure. It could be a list of names, or it could be evidence of a crime.”
How hard was it to get close to Jin Bo? Sheng Kai knew very well that even Sheng Xiao was on guard against him. How could he rely on Song Qiaozhi alone? How could he complete such a mission?
“I know that it’s almost impossible for you to think about it, but opportunities always come when you wait.”
“You’re risking your life,” Sheng Kai said firmly as he remembered very clearly that he trembled all over the day Shen Yu died.
“You can still stay away from me and not be dragged into a deeper h.e.l.l by me.”
Sheng Kai did not say anything and just sped up the car.
This woman was very strange. She made people feel an indescribable mysteriousness. But she was warm-hearted, unlike Gu Ziling, who only had complaints and reproaches.
“Sheng Kai, do you believe that Sheng Xiao is thinking of a way to drag you out? If you really have the chance, then run away. Run as far away as you can.”
Sheng Kai still did not say anything because he had a premonition that his life would be closely related to this woman.
“Go back. I’ll help you choose a suit that fits you. Tonight is a big occasion.”
..
That day, Mu Qiqi sat at home feeling depressed. This was because she really wanted to attend the banquet with Sheng Xiao. Every time, this man amazed the world on all sorts of occasions. She wanted to see the most handsome side of him.
However, she could not help but worry that he would be hiding more and more things from her.
Initially, she thought that she would not pay attention to these things if she was pregnant. However, when Sheng Xiao really went to attend the banquet, she was surprised. She really did not seem to know what her man had been doing recently.
Fortunately, she still had his secretary as her little spy.
However, what surprised her was that Sheng Xiao did not bring his secretary. Instead, he brought Xu Che!
CEO Sheng was attending an event and he actually did not bring a female companion!
“CEO did not bring a female companion because of you, Missus. He doesn’t want others to hold his arm.”
Was that so? Mu Qiqi could not help smiling sweetly.
“Madam, how’s your health? I’ve wanted to come and see you for a long time, but I was too busy.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. I just need to rest.” Mu Qiqi quickly comforted the secretary.
This secretary was really cute.
“That’s good. When I found out that you were sick for a few days, I couldn’t even eat. I was so sad.”
