Chapter 869: You Bad Man
Mu Qiqi knew what he was thinking, so she did not probe further.
He had come back in the rain with just a phone call from her. What else could she do?
“Other people’s bosses value money more than anything else. They won’t miss a single opportunity to make connections. Mine is the opposite.”
“Who asked you to be ‘sick’?” Sheng Xiao curled his lips. He was afraid that this excuse could be used for several months.
“Since you’re back anyway, you can accompany me to do the crafts.” Mu Qiqi took apart the parts and placed them in front of Sheng Xiao. “I can help with the cutting. You can do the rest.”
“Then you don’t have to do it.” Sheng Xiao wrapped his arms around her and placed his chin on her shoulder. It was indeed much better to be intimate and warm like this than to stay with those old geezers.
Mu Qiqi willingly nestled herself in Sheng Xiao’s arms. At this moment, even with lightning and thunder outside, she did not feel the slightest fear or coldness because this embrace was the warmest and safest in the world.
Therefore, when Mama Sheng and Papa Sheng came home at ten o’clock that night, they were greeted with such a warm scene.
The old couple did not want to be the third wheel for their son and daughter-in-law. So, after taking off their shoes and entering, they did not make any noise at all and quietly walked through the living room to their bedroom.
When was Sheng Xiao ever so innocent? Only when he was with Xiao Qi.
Mama Sheng had raised her son till adulthood, but she had never seen Sheng Xiao like this, except in front of Mu Qiqi.
What a scene!
“You’ve made Mom and Dad laugh at you.” Mu Qiqi leaned her elbow against Sheng Xiao’s chest.
“Then shall I go back to the room?” Sheng Xiao was about to get up, but Mu Qiqi stopped him.
“Sit down, you bad man. You only know how to test me. At least finish this…”
..
On the other side, the Yashang Group reception had already ended.
As Sheng Xiao was not present in the second half, Sheng Kai did not feel too embarra.s.sed even when he saluted Song Jiang and offered him tea. Perhaps this was another deeper meaning behind Sheng Xiao’s excuse to leave.
Then, the group left the hotel. Sheng Kai sent Song Jiang to the car, but Song Jiang stopped him. “You’re tired today. Go back and rest. Let Qiaozhi accompany you.”
Sheng Kai glanced at Song Qiaozhi who was beside him, but didn’t say anything. It was a tacit agreement. Then, he closed the car door for Song Jiang. “G.o.dfather, take care.”
Behind Song Jiang, Song Bozhi drove a blue Maybach too.
When he looked at Sheng Kai and Song Qiaozhi, there was a trace of unusual interest in the corner of his mouth. He could sense that these two were acting.
However, it was still a long time. They should play slowly. He didn’t mind.
When he returned home today, he had brought the latest product from abroad. He had yet to play with it properly. Tomorrow, he will test its capabilities.
The better Sheng Xiao protected Mu Qiqi, the more he wanted to invade Sheng Xiao’s territory.
When he thought of this, he could not help feeling happy. Song Bozhi followed Song Jiang’s car with a smile on his face.
“It’s over. I’ll send you back.” Seeing that her father and brother had left, Song Qiaozhi turned her head and spoke to Sheng Kai.
“I don’t want to go back yet…” Sheng Kai shook his head.
“I know. Song Jiang humiliated you like that. In your heart…”
Whenever he thought of this, Sheng Kai would think of his hatred for the Gu family and Gu ziling.
Seeing his cold expression, Song Qiaozhi knew that he was in a bad mood, so she suggested, “Then… let’s go out and have a drink.”
“I want to be alone.”
“Don’t be alone. You’ll get sick from boredom.” With that, Song Qiaozhi pushed Sheng Kai into the black car. “My brother suffered a lot in front of Sheng Xiao tonight. When we get back, he’ll definitely think of ways to get back at him. He’s a very vengeful person, so try not to offend him. Even I won’t be able to get anything out of him.”
“Now, can you tell me the reason why Jin Bo hid his ident.i.ty?”
Song Qiaozhi was driving while observing Sheng Kai’s expression. Finally, she said softly, “I’m afraid that the Sheng family already knows this reason in advance.”
After saying that, Song Qiaozhi continued, “Actually, this matter has nothing to do with the Sheng family. The real enemy of the Song family is the Shen family. It all started twenty-five years ago. Thanks to a mission from Old Master Shen, four out of the five members of the Song family were killed. The only one left was my father, who had been preparing a revenge plan for more than twenty years.
“It was only because Sheng Xiao became the president of Zhongteng and supported the current mayor that he was listed as my father’s number one enemy.
“As for you, it was purely because of Gu Ziling’s grandfather. In order to curry favor with my father, he sacrificed his chess piece.
“My father wanted to use you to take revenge on the Sheng family and leave you as the last scapegoat. You know all this.”
Hearing all this created a mess in Sheng Kai’s mind. After a moment of silence, he finally understood the reason.
“Gu Ziling’s grandfather is also your father’s lackey?”
“Her grandfather is also not a good person. His business is in a mess. Father helped him with Jianchuan’s situation.”
“So, who should I blame?”
Sheng Kai couldn’t figure it out either. He just sneered, thinking that he was too naive.
“My father and brother will definitely have more plans in the future. This also means that I will have many opportunities to get close to their evidence.
“Sheng Kai, do you want to be safe, or do you want to help me?”
Faced with Song Qiaozhi’s sudden inquiry, Sheng Kai was stunned.
He was speechless for a long time, unsure of what or how to answer.
“You’re useless. My father and brother won’t deal with you now and will leave you until the end. However, if you take the risk with me, maybe in a few days, your body will be found in the mountains. The way you die will be the same as those girls in the Changrong Electronics, with the murderer unable to be found, and the police not daring to investigate further.”
Song Qiaozhi’s words were indeed enough to affect Sheng Kai.
However, for some reason, he didn’t want to be a sitting duck.
After spending two seconds making a decision, Sheng Kai thought that he was probably crazy.
“What are you going to bribe me with?”
Upon hearing this, Song Qiaozhi parked the car to the side and suddenly leaned over to kiss Sheng Kai’s lips.
“Beauty? Is that enough?”
Sheng Kai was in a daze for quite a while because his rationality kept reminding him that Song Qiaozhi was definitely not as simple as he thought. He should not believe what she said.
However, his emotions told him that this woman cared about him very much and was willing to stand with him. If he let this chance slip by, perhaps there would not be a next time.
“Don’t be in such a hurry to answer me. You still have a lot of time to think about it.”
Sheng Kai turned his head and forced himself to calm down.
With Gu Ziling around, wasn’t it enough?
The cars sped through the night. Song Qiaozhi was very confident that this man would eventually be softened by her.
