“Shen Ruoyi, you said that you want to drag me to hell. But, I won’t allow you to do that. I won’t even allow you to take up space in my heart. I just want to cherish my loved ones, including those people who care for me. But, you don’t even have them, do you? You don’t love anybody, you don’t even have your family and friends with you.”
At that particular moment, Mu Qiqi showed how strong and gentle she was even though she was only eighteen years old. She did not look down upon her own birth. Moreover, she was strong and brave. She feared not those rumors and sarcastic comments.
What she said was true indeed.
The guests were convinced.
There was rumor about her long ago. She became famous during the birthday party at the Lin family. They did not know that Mu Qiqi was such a strong girl.
After that, Mu Qiqi turned around and looked at Grandpa Shen. She said to him, “Grandpa, please don’t blame Shen Ruoyi. It’s the best punishment for her, seeing me standing here strong before her.
“I don’t think that it’s shameful because I’ve done nothing wrong.”
Grandpa Shen got up from his seat after he heard that. He walked toward Mu Qiqi and hugged her softly. “I’m old now. But, I feel that you’re our hope after I heard what you said just now.
“It’s your big day today. I have nothing to give you. I just want to tell you that I’ll always be on your side.
“If anyone dares to laugh at my granddaughter, they need to face me first, including the honorary badge I gained from the army. You just know the kind of mess which happened to us but you forgot about how many lives I’ve saved.
“Moreover, I’ll ask the security guard to take Shen Ruoyi away since she’s no longer one of us now. I don’t have that kind of ungrateful granddaughter.”
Lin Mu’an soon clapped his hands sincerely after Grandpa Shen had stopped talking. He seemed to realize the reason why Mu Qiqi could defeat all the other beautiful young ladies and gain Sheng Xiao’s admiration and love at the end. Although she was only eighteen years old, she had a different mindset than the others. She had a broad mind.
She had her own views and beliefs. In addition, she was not arrogant. She was true and honest.
Certainly, she would be admired and approved by the others since she had an interesting soul.
Even the prince from Northern Europe gave Mu Qiqi his thumbs-up. “You’re a woman who deserves to be respected.”
Sheng Xiao hugged Mu Qiqi. He saw how his little one convinced the guests like a great speaker. He could not help but exclaim at her secret transformation. At first, she was only a girl who was timid but now she had completely changed.
Soon, Shen Ruoyi was asked to leave in front of the guests. Soon, the emcee started to turn the atmosphere around by holding his wine glass high up.
“Let’s hold up your wine glass and cheer for our gracious bride!”
Grandpa Sheng looked at the ceremony before him. Fortunately, Mu Qiqi had managed to turn it around. If not, the Sheng family would be terribly humiliated.
It seemed that Mu Qiqi had her own temper too. But, Grandpa Sheng realized that she seemed to resemble his grandson, Sheng Xiao.
Certainly, Sheng Xiao was the one who had taught her that.
Throughout the mess just now, Sheng Xiao remained quiet. Somebody asked him, “Why didn’t you side with your beautiful wife just now when she was being condemned?”
“I did.” Sheng Xiao said with a smile. He then replied, “I’m the one who taught her that. She needs to learn to protect herself without always relying on her man. She has her own dignity and stand. That’s why I’m captivated by her.”
At that moment, it seemed like there was a GPS tracker on Mu Qiqi among the crowd.
Sheng Xiao always fixed his gaze on Mu Qiqi. It appeared like he could not avert his gaze from her.
Soon, it was time for the meal during the party. Mu Qiqi had drunk some red wine. She seemed not to be able to hold herself after that. Mama Sheng soon said to Sheng Xiao when she realized that, “Take Qiqi to go upstairs and rest. The hotel has prepared a room for you specially.”
“Mom, I’ll leave the guests to you then.” After that, Sheng Xiao lifted Mu Qiqi up.
They entered the hotel room. Mu Qiqi was slightly dizzy. Her face was flushed as she lay on the bed.
Sheng Xiao tilted her chin. He was bewitched by her. “Little one…”
“Hmm…” Mu Qiqi gave a soft reply.
“You’re my fiancee now.” Then, Sheng Xiao lifted her up and started kissing her passionately.
Mu Qiqi responded to him naturally. Soon, her entire body went soft.
The guests were dancing happily downstairs. They were filled with excitement. On the other hand, something else was happening in the hotel room. Sheng Xiao loved the dress which Mu Qiqi was wearing. He could not ask her to take it off during their kisses.
“Qi’er…I want you.”
“You’ll ruin the dress.” Mu Qiqi said to him in a daze.
Sheng Xiao could not hold himself back anymore. He pulled the dress up and he ignored the fact that his little one was drunk right at that moment. He just wanted to be united with her.
She was such a beautiful little one. He longed to hold her in his arms and adored her deeply.
Downstairs, Fourth Sister knew that Sheng Xiao would not come downstairs anymore. So, she helped him to accompany the distinguished prince. They started to talk in English and it seemed like they were enjoying a great conversation.
A notion came to Grandpa Sheng when he saw that. It had been a long time since Fourth Sister had been in love with anybody. It seemed like a wonderful idea if she was married to the prince and became a princess herself. Certainly, Huang Yao would become much more distinguished by then.
Grandpa Sheng never forgot about Huang Yao even though he was old. It was because he had spent his whole life trying to expand its business.
“Just take a look at them. See how well they enjoy each other’s company…”
Mama Sheng knew Grandpa Sheng’s underlying meaning. She smiled too. “It’s wonderful if it’s Fourth Sister’s destiny.”
Jing Yun was not far away from them. He witnessed that scene too. So, he walked away humbly.
He did not manage to stop that man from hurting Fourth Sister a few years ago. So, he had no right to stop Fourth Sister from falling in love with another man now.
But, he felt a tinge of pain in his heart when he saw Fourth Sister being with another man. However, he had no way out of this dilemma. He was loyal to the Sheng family and he knew fully well that Grandpa Sheng would never approve of him being together with Fourth Sister even if the end of the world was coming.
Moreover, Fourth Sister would never have her eyes on him.
He was just… an assistant.
On the other hand, Lin Mu’an had recorded the ceremony and sent it to Lu Qianqian. “Just assume that you’ve attended the ceremony.”
Lu Qianqian nodded her head after she had watched the video. “Qiqi is indeed beautiful. She’s such a brave woman. From now on, she’ll be the crown princess. Certainly, she will be quite happy after she becomes a part of the Sheng family.”
1“I don’t think so. The Sheng family doesn’t like her.” Lin Mu’an saw it clearly. “Certainly, she will never be treated unfairly as long as the crown prince is there. Qiqi is also not somebody who you can bully easily…
“Just look at how Grandpa Sheng stands against Qiqi. I just want to see how he’ll humiliate himself one day when he realizes what a good girl Qiqi is. Moreover, I find that Qiqi is favored by the elders.”
“That’s for sure.” Lu Qianqian sneered proudly.
“It never occurred to me that Qiqi will be married to Sheng Xiao so soon. Moreover, I learned something else today from the video which I recorded. It’s quite interesting.”
“What?” Lu Qianqian asked him immediately.
“Didn’t you realize how weird Jing Yun was in the video?”
“Why did you look at the crown prince’s assistant?” Lu Qianqian replayed the video.
“It’s because he’s always dull and serious. I saw a different kind of facial expression on his face today.”
Author’s note: Congratulations to Xiaoxiao and Qiqi on their engagement.
From that day onward, Qiqi would be the crown princess!
There would be more scenes about Fourth Sister and Jing Yun. Qiqi’s job would be described too. No worries.
