Chapter 501: She Should Pamper Her Own Man
What use was it to investigate? He could only do so when Sheng Xiao allowed him to. Since Sheng Xiao started his own business, he had been very careful in taking action. And with a vigilant person like Secretary He to keep a watch for him, he could handle things even more perfectly. He had to be so since he was dealing with the authorities. How could he still be like his old self, doing things as he wished?
Grandpa Sheng was busy fanning the flames of war in the family now, so he would not know how fast Sheng Xiao was evolving, and to what extent he had evolved.
Mu Qiqi still had no idea who exposed the secret of the Gu family to the public. Judging from her man’s att.i.tude, she knew he was not the person who would care about such things.
“I thought you are helping Third Brother to take over the position as the crown prince.”
Sheng Xiao could not get enough of her in the car. After they went home, they did it for a couple more times. After filling up the little one with his love to stop her from being jealous, Sheng Xiao went to his study. He was reading a book.
Mu Qiqi came to Sheng Xiao from the bathroom and got onto his lap. She looked at the book he was reading in surprise.
“Do I look like a person with much time to spare?” Sheng Xiao put his arms around her hips and secured her in between his thighs. “I don’t plan to get involved with the family matters of the other people.”
“Gee, I thought Third Brother’s situation was finally getting better. He is having so much hards.h.i.+p, I have to say.”
After hearing her words, Sheng Xiao raised his head and bantered with her. “You always worry about other people. Why don’t you worry about yourself?”
“I’m great. What’s there for me to worry about?”
“You don’t worry nor get anxious about getting married. But I am…” Sheng Xiao said with a self-mocking smile. Then, he picked up his book and continued reading it. “You were not like this when you fell in love with me in secret. You were always the one who took the initiative.”
Was he complaining that she did not love him enough?
“Why must the legal marriage age of our country be later than the other Asian countries? Twenty years old is just nice but we have to wait for another two years before we can get married.”
Seeing Sheng Xiao not say anything, Mu Qiqi comforted him. “Xiaoxiao, I love you, very much. I am still yours even if we don’t register our marriage.”
“The waiting time is too long… It’s annoying,” said Sheng Xiao.
Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao’s loosely b.u.t.toned white pajamas. When she saw her name on his collarbone, her heart softened. “Shall we make a baby?”
Sheng Xiao put down the book when he heard it. He yearned for her. He had to make a lot of love with her before he could pacify the fire in his heart.
In the middle of their pa.s.sionate love-making, Mu Qiqi suddenly realized something. Was Xiaoxiao thinking that he was old already? He was just twenty-eight but was already having a midlife crisis?
If Sheng Xiao knew what the little one was thinking, he might spank her again. After love making, Sheng Xiao cleaned up for his little one dutifully. Why was he having such a strong desire to get married? It was not for anything else but for his desire to own her. And his such desire was growing day by day.
When the cold winter breeze blew into the room, Mu Qiqi s.h.i.+vered.
Sheng Xiao looked at her and embraced her in her arms. He kissed her forehead. “You are the only one who is still unaware of it. Do you know that I love you to the extent that I have no idea what I should do with you already?”
He wanted to own every inch of her. But at the same time, he did not want Mu Qiqi to lose her freedom, not even the slightest.
Because he loved her dearly, he did not want her to suffer.
In the dark, Mu Qiqi did not open her eyes. She hugged Sheng Xiao subconsciously. If he really felt uneasy, she thought she could bear a child for him.
She planned to do so once they came back from getting married abroad. She did not care if the other people would ridicule or mock her, she just wanted her man to feel at ease.
He’s her man. Of course she should pamper him.
…
The next morning, following the big news of the Gu family, the Lu family announced another big news. That was, the new chairman of Lu Holdings, Lu Qianqian, was engaged.
They did not disclose the man’s ident.i.ty. But judging from the serious att.i.tude of the Lu family, the public guessed that the man must be the young master of the Lin family, Lin Mu’an.
Although the Lu family did not plan to provoke the Lin family, how could Old Lin take it when he saw the news?
He always thought that he still had a chance to restore his family. But now that they had announced their engagement, he felt that the Lu family was obviously ignoring the Lin family.
Thinking of this, Old Lin, who was still lying on his sickbed, could not be reconciled. He said to his butler, “Go and get your men to capture Lin Mu’an from the police academy. I will tell the Ji family that I will tie him up and send him straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register his marriage with Miss Ji.”
“I’m afraid this may not work, Master.”
“If you don’t want to see me die, you better do as I say. I will bribe the authorities and call the staff in the Civil Affairs Bureau and I’m sure they will help me to get it done! Lin Mu’an may not reach the legal age of getting married yet, but I can just alter his age in his profile.”
The butler sighed helplessly.
In fact, the young lady of the Lu family was not that bad after all. Why did the old man refuse to accept her?
“As long as I can get rid of the mother and daughter of the Lu family, I can do anything. I can even give up my life for that.”
“I will do it now.”
But with Lin Mu’an’s temperament, how would he resist when he knew what the old man was trying to do? The butler felt terrified just thinking about it.
At first, Mama Lu planned to buy some gifts and visit Old Lin in the hospital after making the announcement. However, Old Lin refused to see anyone.
Mama Lu knew Old Lin was just refusing to meet with the Lu family.
Sadly, Mama Lu went home with the gifts. She wondered how Old Lin would accept her daughter.
…
Lin Mu’an saw the news early in the morning. He smiled happily.
Now that he was the rightful fiancé of Qianqian and he owned Lu Qianqian wholly, he felt very much at ease.
When his roommate saw him smiling, he couldn’t help but tease him. “Did something good happen to you, Brother Lin? You have been smiling since early morning.”
“I am officially engaged to your sister-in-law already.” Lin Mu’an shared the good news generously.
“Tsk-tsk, don’t show off in front of a single man like that. But it’s a good thing anyway. Congratulations!”
Lin Mu’an couldn’t help but laugh again.
But, suddenly, he was informed by the tutor to go to the office.
Before he could respond, two men hiding behind the door tied him up with a rope skillfully. They were obviously from the army. How could Lin Mu’an fight with them?
In the office, the tutor said guiltily, “I’m sorry, Mu’an.”
Lin Mu’an stared at the two men. He did not want to admit defeat. He wanted to see just how far the old man could get.
