Mu Qiqi lowered her head. After contemplating for a few seconds, she said in a deep voice, “Xiaoxiao, Qianqian is my only friend.”
“Then, tell her the truth.” Sheng Xiao hugged Mu Qiqi tightly. Then, he brought her out of the revolving restaurant. “Let’s not come to this kind of place anymore.”
“But have you forgotten, Xiaoxiao? Duan Shao’an saw you in the club before. He knew our relationship.”
“He will not have the chance to say it out,” Sheng Xiao said. Then, he brought Mu Qiqi out of the restaurant and returned to the villa.
Looking at Mu Qiqi’s luggage, Sheng Xiao’s eyes darkened. Then, he swiftly carried Mu Qiqi on his shoulder.
“Xiaoxiao.. .”
“Weren’t you enjoying yourself seducing me back in the restaurant?” Sheng Xiao moved close until their noses touched, and he stared into her eyes.
“I was just…”
“Now you will have to bear the consequences.” He bit Mu Qiqi’s neck and locked her in his arms. There was no way of escaping.
Mu Qiqi was unable to say a word that night. They had an intense night of lovemaking. She was only freed when the sky was starting to turn blue. Now, she felt like a fish taken out of water, every drop of her energy was squeezed out from her.
Of course, Sheng Xiao did not leave marks of their lovemaking on her body parts which could be seen easily. She still needed to go out and meet people. And he did not want to tarnish her reputation.
Mu Qiqi was terribly exhausted. When she was in a state of confusion, she could see a tall figure standing by her side, wiping her body clean. Mu Qiqi was half asleep, but she could still smile at Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao’s heart was pounding again. How could she smile at him at this time?
Didn’t she worry that she might not be able to go to school in time tomorrow?
Mu Qiqi slept soundly in the big bed. The next morning, she was woken up by the alarm clock. When she went downstairs, she saw Su Zipei cooking soup in the kitchen. Sheng Xiao was nowhere to be seen.
“Aunt?”
“Young Master Sheng called me just now. He asked me to boil some soup for you to nourish your body. He was quite distressed for you going camping for a week,” explained Su Zipei.
“It is not like that.” Mu Qiqi flushed.
Seeing her walking in an awkward way, Su Zipei was about to ask about it. Before she opened her mouth, she suddenly understood what it meant. “Go wash up.”
“Yes.”
“You should not take it lightly even if your body is still young.”
Mu Qiqi could not refute Su Zipei’s concern. After all, she was too embarrassed to talk to her about her sleeping with Sheng Xiao.
“Your mobile phone is with me. Grandpa Shen called this morning. He is in the hospital so he cannot send you to school.”
“Okay.”
“And one more thing…” Su Zipei was about to talk about Mu Tangxue as Mu Qiqi’s phone rang again. Su Zipei picked up the call. Then, she passed it to Mu Qiqi and mouthed the name. “Rong Junhan.”
“Let me answer.” Mu Qiqi took the phone and said, “Aunt Rong?”
“Give me your address. I will send you to Sheng Ting University,” said Rong Junhan. “You are Jianchuan’s daughter. So you will be my daughter too. I should take care of you.”
“Don’t bother yourself, Aunt Rong. My aunt can send me to school.”
“You are a Shen. You cannot keep staying in the villa of the Sheng family. You have your parents and your family. Give me your address.”
Rong Junhan was demanding. But Mu Qiqi could not figure out what was behind all these. She was sure that Rong Junhan hated her very much. But why was she trying to act so motherly now?
Mu Qiqi did not reject the offer and gave Rong Junhan the address of the villa.
“What did she say?”
“She wants to send me to Sheng Ting University. She’s not even married yet and is already acting like the lady in the house,” said Mu Qiqi. “Let’s pack up and go to the villa, Aunt.”
“Do you think we should tell Young Master Sheng?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. She knew Sheng Xiao would know it somehow.
As for the matter about Qianqian, she still had not figured out a good time to tell her. She did not know how she should break the news to Qianqian.
Soon after they reached the villa, Rong Junhan stopped her white limited edition car in front of the gate.
As soon as she saw Mu Qiqi, she ordered, “Put your luggage in the boot and get in.”
“Aunt, I will go now.” Mu Qiqi said goodbye to Su Zipei.
Su Zipei looked concerned. But Rong Junhan was Shen Jianchuan’s fiancée. She had the right to control Mu Qiqi.
Mu Qiqi got into the car and buckled up. There seemed to be a thick invisible wall between them. And Rong Junhan drove very fast.
“Mu Qiqi, I know what you are thinking right now. Although you look innocent and have no intention to return to the Shen family, you are actually calculating your moves. Am I right? Jianchuan is your father. So, he will get you home eventually. You are trying to buy people’s hearts before you go back, are you?”
“When you return to the Shen family, you will be the real Young Lady Shen. And I will become a joke.”
“Aunt Rong.”
“If you are me, will you not hate?” Rong Junhan stepped on the brake abruptly. Her eyes were filled with anger. “Starting from today, we will have to live in suffering. I will not let myself be the only one suffering.”
“And there is one more thing I need to tell you. I am getting married to your father very soon.”
“So, it means that I will become your mother.”
“I will try my best to ‘look after’ you.”
Mu Qiqi knew what she was implying but she remained calm. “I know you mind a lot about my existence. But I am not a fragile clay figurine.”
“So, you come here today to declare war with me?”
“I just want to tell you this. Don’t dream for things that will not be yours. For instance, a father’s love. You did not get any from the Mu family, and you will not get it from the Shen family as well. I will not let my enemy have the chance to live.”
“You want to join the Shen family, don’t you? I will let you know that joining the Shen family is way harder than not joining the family.”
She was expecting Rong Junhan would act motherly. But since that she had said it out clearly, Mu Qiqi felt relieved. Because she did not have to pretend as well.
“If you think that I am a timid one, try me.” Mu Qiqi did not care about Rong Junhan’s warning. “Just don’t make yourself lose the things you already have by then.”
“It is a seven-day camp, right? I will come pick you up by then.” Rong Junhan did not take Mu Qiqi’s word seriously.
She was just a girl.
At that moment, Mu Qiqi had a wild guess. The Mu family was definitely not the one hiding Mu Tangxue. So, who could still make use of that person?
Wasn’t it Madam Rong who was just beside her?
