When night fell, Tang Yan brought Feng Shanshan to the Banyan Courtyard.
This was the first time the two of them officially entered Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao’s love nest. Mama Sheng and Papa Sheng had left that evening for France for a holiday. Now, there were only the two of them and Fifth Aunt, who was taking care of them.
“It’s only a few minutes’ away and we’re both in the same area of the villa. How could the difference be so big?” Feng Shanshan sighed after arriving at the Banyan Carden.
“My husband worked so hard to earn money. If he bought a house that was only as big as you poor people, that would be crazy.” Mu Qiqi snorted lightly, but signaled for the two to take a seat in the living room and Fifth Aunt made tea. “What’s up? Is it Thanksgiving here?”
“Xiao Qiqi, you’ve been tired these past few days.” Tang Yan didn’t wait for Feng Shanshan to prompt him and started speaking to Mu Qiqi.
“Sigh, I don’t know what to say either. With your status, you’re destined to not be able to live peacefully with her. However, I can’t just leave her be, so I worry about her.” Mu Qiqi shrugged, “Later, I’ll hand over the GPS system to you so that you can monitor this pregnant woman at any time.”
“Still smaller than yours!” Feng Shanshan patted her belly indignantly.
While the two of them were bickering, Sheng Xiao walked out of the study on the second floor and looked directly at Tang Yan. “Is it convenient for us to talk in private?”
The two women looked at each other. Since when were the two of them so familiar with each other?
However, before the two of them could react, Tang Yan had already stood up and walked toward the second floor. Mu Qiqi glanced at Feng Shanshan suspiciously before coming to a realization. “It’s most likely because of the matter between Changrong and Sheng Kai.”
“Cheng Bin is with Sheng Kai.” The first thing Sheng Xiao said when he closed the door was to tell Tang Yan this news. “Sheng Kai isn’t as difficult to deal with as Third Master Long, but definitely more disgusting. Third Master Long knows how to weigh the pros and cons and put the benefits first. However, Sheng Kai… Revenge is the only thing on his mind.
“Sheng Kai needs a fighter who won’t break his arm, and Cheng Bin needs a chance to get close to you. That’s how the two of them have joined forces so quickly. And because of that, their target isn’t just you or me. It’s us both!”
After Tang Yan heard Sheng Xiao’s words, he nodded faintly. “I’ll investigate Changrong’s matter thoroughly. That mad dog is so eager to bite me. I can’t just sit around and wait for death. A few years ago, I sent Cheng Bin to prison. Now, I can also send Sheng Kai to prison for life.”
“If you need any help, just let me know,” Sheng Xiao said.
“I don’t need any help, except…”
“Protect Feng Shanshan.” Sheng Xiao knew that she was Tang Yan’s everything, just like Mu Qiqi was to him. No one was allowed to touch them.
The two men exchanged a few more words before returning to their respective women.
Downstairs, Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan were almost done with their conversation as well.
“Captain Tang has just returned. You must have a lot to talk about. Don’t waste your time with us. Go back.” Mu Qiqi started chasing away the guests. It was not easy for her to not have her parents at home. She also had things she wanted to do with Xiao Xiao.
“I don’t plan to stay any longer.” Feng Shanshan snorted lightly and got up with Tang Yan’s help. “Oh right, I know a little about the Changrong Electronics incident. It seems that the Major Crimes Department is in charge of this case. Xiao Qiqi, do you want to participate too?”
“You’re a pregnant woman. Why are you so worried?” Mu Qiqi glared at her. “Go back and rest.”
Of course, Mu Qiqi wanted to participate. It was not just because she wanted to see Sheng Kai play tricks. She also wanted to know what secrets lay hidden behind so many suicide cases.
At the moment though, she did not know that this case was related to the previous one
However, as it concerned Sheng Kai, Xiao Xiao might not agree to her involvement in the case.
Tang Yan did not say anything either.
The pregnant couple that came over to thank her now turned around to leave. Mu Qiqi watched them go and hurriedly told Fifth Aunt to go home. She then locked the door and sneaked into the study room.
Sheng Xiao crossed his arms and looked at her. “What are you playing at?”
“Father and mother aren’t home, and Fifth Aunt has left too.” Mu Qiqi climbed onto Sheng Xiao’s legs.
“So?” Sheng Xiao asked her with a faint smile. He knew what she wanted, but he deliberately teased her so that she could say it herself.
“I want to… go to the living room.” Mu Qiqi drew a circle on Sheng Xiao’s chest.
“Why do you want to go to the living room?” Sheng Xiao planned to play dumb until the end.
“What do you think?” Mu Qiqi snorted. “Let’s sleep in the living room tonight.”
He couldn’t possibly not understand such an obvious hint, could he?
Sure enough, Sheng Xiao carried Mu Qiqi in his arms and walked straight downstairs to the living room. “Little one, you’ll torture me to death sooner or later.”
Mu Qiqi was young, and it was the time when everyone was in their prime. As a man in his late twenties, he naturally had to be satisfied every day. He couldn’t let his own woman suffer, could he?
Tang Yan brought Feng Shanshan home and personally wiped her face and feet. Feng Shanshan felt that this wasn’t something a man should do, but Tang Yan held her hand. “This is all I can do for you. If you don’t let me, I’ll feel very guilty.”
Feng Shanshan noticed that he hadn’t changed his clothes and realized that he was actually waiting to report to the branch office at night. “Are you still going out?”
“I want to accept the Changrong Electronics case as soon as possible and thoroughly investigate Sheng Kai.”
“Why?”
“Cheng Bin has joined him,” Tang Yan answered calmly.
When Feng Shanshan heard this, she immediately understood everything. This was the reason why Sheng Xiao wanted to speak to him earlier.
So, Feng Shanshan did not stop him. She cupped Tang Yan’s resolute and handsome face and kissed him gently. “Be careful. You can leave after I change your bandage. Don’t try to be brave. Let Senior Brother Long and the others do the physical work.”
Tang Yan took the opportunity to hold Feng Shanshan’s hand again. He sounded rather emotional. “I’ll make a report tomorrow and the day after tomorrow when I have some free time. Then, we’ll go register.”
“And tomorrow afternoon, I’ll accompany you for a prenatal checkup.”
Feng Shanshan nodded. Actually, she was already very satisfied that Tang Yan was willing to do this much. “I’m not that weak. I just want to know that you’re safe, no matter what you’re doing. Then, I’ll feel at ease.”
Tang Yan ran his fingers through her hair before continuing to massage her feet. “You’re more sensible after getting pregnant.”
Feng Shanshan did not say anything. Under Tang Yan’s care, she lay on the bed. Perhaps it was because she was pregnant that she was very sleepy. After lying in Tang Yan’s arms for ten minutes, she drifted off to sleep.
Looking at Feng Shanshan like this, Tang Yan’s heart kept hurting.
This woman had given up her studies and career for him. And now that she was pregnant before marriage… He really owed her too much.
Therefore, after Feng Shanshan fell asleep, he returned to the living room and took out the floor plan of the house. He knew that he had to consider the security of the villa more.
