“I will not let her suffer.”
“She is suffering when she is with you.” Grandpa Shen felt bad when he thought of their uncle-niece relationship again. “An eighteen-year-old girl! Whose eighteen-year-old girl would get engaged at this age? It is like she has bet her entire life on you!”
Having heard what Grandpa Shen said, Mama Sheng felt guilty. She thought that the Sheng family owed Qiqi.
Sheng Xiao was just like a devil. He might like her now. But what if his taste changed tomorrow? What would happen to Qiqi by then?
She knew what Grandpa Sheng and Papa Sheng thought. They must be thinking that she was just a little girl. An engagement meant nothing to them. They were not even getting married yet. So, they would care less about who Sheng Xiao was engaged to. But when it came to him getting married, it was a whole different matter.
So, they did not intend to bother about Qiqi at all.
Thinking of this, Mama Sheng felt very guilty.
It was the best and the most beautiful moment of a girl’s life. And her youth was wasted on her demon son.
“Don’t worry, Old Shen. No matter when it is, we, the Sheng family will give the best ceremony to Qiqi. We will not mistreat her.”
Sheng Xiao knew that his mother was trying to make it up to Qi’er. He had not told her the truth and he intended not to tell her as yet. Anyway, he had always wanted the whole world to love Mu Qiqi.
“Xiao Qi, I will tell you frankly. If the Sheng family mistreats you one day, you don’t have to give in. you can just come back to the Shen family. Your father and I will back you up.”
“I know that, Grandpa.” Mu Qiqi started tearing up.
Because she knew that it was hard for her grandfather to accept her relationship with Sheng Xiao. And now, he had to cover up for her. Being his granddaughter, she felt she was not filial enough.
“Well then, I will let the Sheng family handle the engagement ceremony.”
Mama Sheng smiled. She grabbed Mu Qiqi’s hand in front of Grandpa Shen. “It must be hard for you to be together with my son.”
Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao.
He just smiled.
Mu Qiqi did not say anything. She held Mama Sheng’s hands tightly.
“I will hire the best designer to make you the best dress. From now on, you are my daughter.”
Mama Sheng was a thoughtful person. So, the Shen family was not dissatisfied with anything. She had even visited Shen Jianchuan in the hospital in person, just to make him feel reassured.
After a series of therapy sessions, Shen Jianchuan could speak normally now. After listening to Mama Sheng, he laughed. “Actually, we all know what the situation is in the Sheng family. But it is my daughter’s choice to join the Sheng family. I cannot stop her. I just want to give her freedom in doing things. If one day, the Sheng family bullied Xiao Qi, as her father, I will break ties with you regardless of what my father thinks. It’s a marriage between two powerful families. And Xiao Qi is only eighteen. Enough with the gossip in the whole of Jianchuan already, I just hope that the Sheng family will give her a sincere and proper engagement ceremony.”
Mama Sheng knew that Shen Jianchuan was a straightforward man. She told him honestly. “I don’t care about the other people, but I can promise you, I will treat Xiao Qi and Sheng Xiao just the same. I will back Qiqi up as long as Qiqi is still in the Sheng family. I will stay by her side and protect her.”
“You are considered to be an elder to me now that Qiqi is your daughter-in-law. But Xiao Qin, I trust you. I will hand over my only daughter to you.”
“Don’t worry.” Mama Sheng nodded.
…
After leaving the Shen Mansion, Sheng Xiao brought Mu Qiqi to the mansion to meet with Su Zipei.
Su Zipei had not seen Mu Qiqi after knowing about their engagement.
When she saw Mu Qiqi, she hugged her and started to cry. “I have never expected that this day will come so fast. You are just eighteen, Qiqi. I have not imagined you getting married so young.”
“Don’t be like that, Aunt.”
“I can’t help you much with your life in the future. I just want to tell you that you will still be my daughter in my heart. No matter what, the door of this mansion will always be open to you. This will always be your home.”
Lu Wenhua told Sheng Xiao that he had bought the mansion from Grandpa Shen. Now, the mansion was a possession of the Lu family already, because Su Zipei wanted to stay. She wanted Mu Qiqi to have a place she was familiar with to stay if she could not stay with the Sheng family anymore.
“Aunt, I am still your Qiqi. Things will not change.”
After Su Zipei had enough of a hug with Mu Qiqi, she turned around and looked at Sheng Xiao. “Young Master Sheng…”
“In the past few days, I have received enough reminders and threats for this little one. Aunt, you know how much I care about her.”
Sheng Xiao seldom expressed his emotions. Now that he had said something warm, Su Zipei nodded in tears. “I know. That will be great.”
When Su Zipei thought of the person she loved dearly was getting engaged, she had a feeling as if she was going to lose her. This made her feel sad.
“Alright, you are pregnant. Crying too much is harmful to your body.” Lu Wenhua quickly came forward to comfort his wife. And Mu Qiqi was taken aback by his words.
“Aunt, you are…”
“I haven’t told you this. I’m with child.”
“That’s great!” Mu Qiqi quickly helped Su Zipei to sit. Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao decided to stay overnight there.
It was the first time Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi slept in the same room in Su Zipei’s presence.
…
At night, they lay down on Mu Qiqi’s old bed. Mu Qiqi was lying on Sheng Xiao’s chest. She smirked. “It seems like Aunt and Uncle are already having sex before getting married.”
“If you want to spend more time with your aunt, we can stay here until the engagement.” Sheng Xiao kissed her forehead.
“Then, will we live in Sheng Mansion after our engagement?” Mu Qiqi asked.
“No, my mother has prepared another place for us.” Sheng Xiao replied.
“The place near Sheng Ting University is good enough. It is also very near to school.”
“We won’t be living there anymore. It is impossible to use my personal guards there.” Sheng Xiao said, “I must protect my little one well.”
He knew the Sheng family. They could easily sneak into that villa by bribing the security guards. So, he needed to get another villa that stood alone so that he could monitor the security and safeguard the place.
Mu Qiqi could not understand the complication yet. And he did not want her to understand it now.
“What do you mean?”
“Listen to your hubby, okay?”
Mu Qiqi’s heart melted when she heard that word.
She buried her head in Sheng Xiao’s chest. “Okay.”
