Chapter 736: If You Don’t Have the Intelligence, Don’t Do Anything Stupid
Old Master Sheng’s chest was heaving non-stop, as if he was trying hard to adjust his emotions.
“Mr. Sheng, let’s go.” The police urged Sheng Bowen, reminding him not to waste any more time.
Sheng Bowen didn’t say anything else. He had nothing to say to Sheng Kai, so he spoke to Old Master Sheng. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. It’s your birthday today. Don’t forget that Eighth Brother is still here. If something really happened, he wouldn’t be so calm. Believe in me and believe in Eighth Brother. Don’t let those people take advantage of the situation. I’ll be back soon.”
Old Master Sheng didn’t look in Sheng Kai’s direction. He only said one thing to Sheng Bowen, “I won’t let anything happen to my grandson.”
This sentence was akin to slapping Sheng Kai’s face. In the past, Old Master Sheng had doted on his eighth son. Now, Old Master Sheng doted on his third son. However, he had never truly cared about his second son.
Sheng Kai coldly watched Sheng Bowen being taken away. Then, he grabbed Gu Ziling and squatted to pick up the gift that Old Master Sheng had thrown away. He picked it up and handed it back to the old man.
“Grandpa, why are you so angry on such a great day?”
Old Master Sheng leaned on his walking stick, his eyes sharp and vicious. “If anything happens to Third Brother, I won’t let you go even if I have to die.”
Sheng Kai sneered when he heard that. Then, he threw away the gift and said to Old Master Sheng, “Third Brother, Eighth Brother, even Sixth Brother and Seventh Brother have been hurt by you. But what about me? Who cares about me?”
“Third Brother is in trouble because he had bad intentions and did something illegal to implicate Huang Yao. How can you blame it on me without distinguishing between right and wrong?
“Just because I was kicked out by you?
“Look at you. You love Eighth brother, butEighth Brother doesn’t want you. And now you love Third Brother. What’s the use when Third Brother did such a disgraceful thing to his family?”
Old Master Sheng was obviously provoked and his face flushed red. Mu Qiqi immediately shielded Old Master Sheng behind her.
Old Master Sheng didn’t know where this little girl got the courage and strength. She was so small, yet she came to protect an old thing like him.
He looked at Eighth Brother who still hadn’t said a word. It was as if he didn’t care about this little thing at all.
“Grandfather, go sit beside Xiao Xiao and watch the show.”
Go.
Old Sheng didn’t understand what was going on and was pushed toward Sheng Xiao’s direction by Mu Qiqi.
As for Mu Qiqi, she confidently faced Sheng Kai and Gu Ziling, crossing her arms and raising her eyebrows as she asked the two of them, “You’ve been waiting outside the door for a long time, haven’t you? And took the chance to enter when the police got here. Was the show good?”
“Mu Qiqi, why are you everywhere?” Gu Ziling said in a mocking tone. “How is it our responsibility that the Sheng family has a scandal now? We came here today out of kindness to celebrate grandfather’s birthday.”
“You’re kind? If you’re really kind, would you have tried to sow discord a few days ago and stir up a dispute between the Hu family and the Sheng family? Gu Ziling, seeing Hu Ran lose control, you must be very angry and also very sad, right?”
“You...” Gu Ziling was at a loss for words.
“I know. Sheng Kai is here today to give Grandpa a gift. Since he’s already given it to him, you can leave now.” Mu Qiqi used her hand to point to the direction of the hotel’s main door. “I won’t walk you out.”
When Sheng Kai saw this, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Mu Qiqi, you probably don’t know what kind of mistake Sheng Bowen has made this time. The outside world has already gone crazy, and you still have the mood to celebrate birthdays here?
“Did you know that the amount of diacetylmorphine found in Huang Yao’s warehouse is enough to send him to prison for a long time? You’re still boasting shamelessly. Let me tell you, even if Sheng Xiao appeared, he wouldn’t be saved. In fact, the Sheng family can’t be saved either!”
When Old Master Sheng heard this, he was about to get up again, but he was held back by Sheng Xiao.
“Look at that old man’s face. He’s so anxious.”
“This is what you get for giving Third Brother the power back then and kicking me out of the family.”
Mu Qiqi burst into laughter when she heard Sheng Kai’s impassioned way of speaking.
She really found it funny..
“What are you laughing at?” Sheng Kai asked Mu Qiqi. “Do you think the Sheng family can run away this time?”
“Why can’t they run away? Haha...” Mu Qiqi laughed until her stomach hurt. “Please, although we all know that you were the one who planned all this, it would be great if you two could act a little better. Otherwise, the one who will be embarrassed in the end will just be the two of you.
“I really thought that after all this time, you would be able to put on a good show. I didn’t expect that... you’re still so... retarded.”
“If you don’t believe me, see for yourself...” Mu Qiqi gestured for Sheng Kai to look at the main door of the banquet hall.
Sheng Kai was about to say something, but Sheng Bowen, who had just been taken away by the police, walked back as if nothing had happened.
That’s right, he returned to the banquet hall in front of everyone.
Sheng Kai was surprised to see Sheng Bowen return to Old Master Sheng’s side. He whispered to him, “Grandpa, I told you that everything is fine. I’m back, aren’t I?”
“Are you really fine?”
“That’s impossible!” Sheng Kai pointed at Sheng Bowen.
“What contradictory statements! One moment you say that he can’t run away, the next you say that it’s impossible that he has. And you’re saying that you didn’t plan this whole thing?” Mu Qiqi snorted.
“It’s impossible for him to run away...”
“Let me tell you why he was released. A few days ago, we found out that there was a problem with a batch of counterfeit packaging boxes in Huang Yao’s warehouse. The interlayer of the packaging boxes was filled with copious amounts of diacetylmorphine. What should we do? Someone framed him. There was no other way. Huang Yao immediately called the police and let the police investigate. These things had nothing to do with Huang Yao.
“The police were wise and mighty. They quickly cleared Huang Yao’s name. However, who was the one who framed Huang Yao? We had to continue to investigate...”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible.” Sheng Kai was in disbelief. He thought that Mu Qiqi had made it up.
“Idiot, do you think everyone knows about diacetylmorphine? Your spy saw that something like white powder and hurriedly went to the police. But that was just lime powder that we had planted. The police verified that it was not diacetylmorphine, so of course they had to release Third Brother...”
Sheng Kai’s expression changed when he heard this.
“The dumbest thing about you was that you wanted to admire the old man’s anxious expression when the police arrested Third Brother. The next dumbest thing about you was that you got Gu Ziling to use Hu Ran against Third Brother.
“Isn’t what you did akin to showing the world what you tried to hide?”
“If you don’t have the intelligence, don’t do anything stupid. You looked so smug before, but look at you now. You look so stupid.”
After hearing Mu Qiqi’s words, Sheng Kai was very concerned at first, but after thinking for a moment, he calmed down. “Really? But I don’t understand a word you said.”
“Framing the Sheng family? Giving you diacetylmorphine? What does all that have to do with me? I just came back for the birthday celebration.” Sheng Kai began to pretend to have lost his memory. “I was so agitated at first because I thought that Huang Yao really did illegal transactions like the news said. It wasn’t because I knew that this was planned in advance.”
