Li Bingbing rolled her eyes at how dramatic Lu Xian Yu was. She went and decided to save the little boy from Lu Xian Yu who looked like he was about to spit fire on the boy.
"Honey." She held Lu Xian Yu"s hand to stop him.
When Lu Xian Yu turned to her, she smiled at him, "Isn"t this great? The necklace was found. Be good to him."
His lips were stretched into a thin line. "But honey… he"s being too close to our daughter."
Qinqing went and held Mengmeng"s arm, "Jiejie…"
Si Hongqi was glad that Qinqing was there. "Yes, please take her away from me. I was too young to be killed."
Han Xukun decided to quietly escape the scene while everyone"s focus was on Si Hongqi. He preferred to avoid getting in trouble. Besides, he suddenly remembered that he has something else to do.
Si Hongqi turned to Han Xukun to ask for help but ended up seeing his leaving figure. He cried inside, "That traitor! How can he leave his friend alone in a lion"s den?!"
Mengmeng finally released Si Hongqi, she turned to her brother who called for her.
Without saying much, Qinqing went to hug her instead as if he was trying to remove Si Hongqi"s scent from his sister.
Mengmeng blinked her red and puffy eyes. Huh? What"s with the sudden hug?
Meanwhile, Qinqing turned his gaze to Si Hongqi while hugging his sister as if giving him a warning.
He may have his father"s smile but he is not his father! He will not be excluded from the boys that aren"t allowed to hold his sister!
"I think my parents are looking for me right now so… I should probably go now…" Si Hongqi tried to find a way to escape.
But just when he was about to leave, he felt a heavy hand on his shoulder.
He slowly turned to look up at the tall Lu Xian Yu who was smiling at him as if telling him that he can"t just leave that easy.
"Come, we can drop you to your parent"s place. Consider it as thanks for finding my daughter"s necklace."
"Ah, no, no. There"s no need for that Mr. Lu," Si Hongqi smiled back at him.
"I insist, let us drop you to your place."
"But…"
"Wait." Li Bingbing stood beside Lu Xian Yu.
Just like her children, she noticed the similarities Si Hongqi had with Xia Sinian when he smiled.
"What are your parent"s names?"
Si Hongqi blinked a few times, "Huh?"
"I"m asking you what"s your parents" name." She smiled at him although the look in her eyes was cold.
Did Xia Sinian have another woman?
"Um… my parents" names is Si Enlin and Yong Sianqi."
Yong Sianqi?
She took out her phone and searched for it with the help of Kozu.
Li Bingbing sighed in relief. No wonder… his mother is a member of the Yong family. She was Xia Sinian and Xia Meilin"s cousin!
"Xian Yu, just leave him be. If the boy doesn"t want us to drop him then we can"t force him."
Si Hongqi was so relieved that Li Bingbing was saving his life.
Mengmeng pulled away from Qinqing who was hugging her the whole time. She walked back to Si Hongqi.
"I"ve decided!"
Everyone turned their heads to her.
Mengmeng held Si Hongqi"s both hands, "When Mengmeng becomes big and pretty like mama, I will marry Hongqi-gege!"
Everyone: "..."
Si Hongqi wanted to cry. What wrong did he do to her? Why was she digging a grave for him?
He could feel Lu Xian Yu and Qinqing"s murderous gaze.
If he rejects her now then maybe he could save himself, right? "U-um… Mengmeng… I"m grateful but… I am not-"
"You"re going to reject my Jiejie?"
"You think my daughter is not pretty and good enough for you?"
The atmosphere in the hall turned a hundred degrees low.
"N-no… I mean, of course, I will marry-"
"You"re going to marry my Jiejie?" Qinqing was glaring daggers at him.
"This little runt, who do you think you are? Do you think that you"re good enough for my princess? You will never be worthy enough to have my daughter!"
Si Hongqi: "..."
He was in a dilemma. He didn"t know what answer he should give them. How could they be so mean to him? He didn"t sign up for any of this, okay?
