Chapter 198: He Is Just a Useless Man
Third Aunt was especially puzzled when Shen Ruoyi was so nice to Mu Qiqi. After dinner, she went to her daughter’s room and asked, “Do you really like Mu Qiqi? You bought her so many things, but why wouldn’t you buy some for us, your parents?”
“Or you are actually having something else in your mind?”
Shen Ruoyi was sitting in front of the dressing table. She felt helpless after hearing her mother’s words. “Mom, why do you think so? Qiqi is a likeable person, you shouldn’t treat her like an enemy.”
“You’ve only met her once. How would you know her?”
“Mom, I am very tired. Please let me go this time.” Shen Ruoyi said. She knew her mother would soften when she acted like a baby. Sure enough, Third Aunt took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
“Take a rest, then. But I tell you, you must not treat her nicely at the birthday party. She is just the fruit of adultery. Does she really think that she can beat a true lady like you?”
“Mom, I know what to do. Just go back to your room.”
Third Aunt felt helpless and left Shen Ruoyi’s room. But she would not let Mu Qiqi steal her daughter’s limelight during the birthday party.
Her daughter must be the prettiest one that day. She must get Young Master Lin’s attention.
But she did not know Shen Ruoyi had never wanted Young Master Lin and who her real target was.
…
The next day, Su Zipei and Lu Wenhua received the gift prepared by Sheng Xiao. There was a set of exquisite yet not too showy kind of jewelry and some useful items for a married woman. They were all finely crafted. Su Zipei liked them very much.
“Young Master Sheng is such a thoughtful man. Although he is born to a wealthy family, he understands people’s needs. He is so caring.”
“Indeed.”
Lu Wenhua hugged Su Zipei and said, “I don’t have any children. Now that I have you, I will love Qiqi like my own child. Sheng Xiao is an exceptional man. I hope that with his support, and our support, Qiqi will be able to stand strong in the Sheng family.”
“Thank you, Wenhua. If you wish, I can bear a child for you. But you cannot be unfair to Qiqi after you have your own child.”
“Don’t worry. There are many people who love Qiqi now.” Lu Wenhua comforted Su Zipei.
“Actually, I have a small request now” Su Zipei suddenly thought of it. “After we get married, can we move into that mansion? I want Qiqi to be able to go home at any time and have a warm meal every time she goes home. Also, this helps her from keeping her relationship with Young Master Sheng a secret. If the house becomes empty after we are married, Qiqi will not be able to give a good explanation to the Shen family.”
Lu Wenhua nodded in agreement. “Of course, we can. The mansion is closer to Eaton, I would be glad to live there.”
Su Zipei hugged Lu Wenhua gratefully after he gave her his answer.
Perhaps Qiqi was right. God saved the best for her last.
After that, Su Zipei called Mu Qiqi. Mu Qiqi had just woken up by then. When she knew that Sheng Xiao had sent her aunt so many presents, she kissed him on his face.
Sheng Xiao opened his eyes, puzzled. When Mu Qiqi put down her phone, he pulled her into his arms and pinned her beneath him.
“Xiaoxiao, I am going to be late.”
“You should know the consequences when you kiss me.” Men were rather sensitive in the morning. It was especially alluring when Mu Qiqi looked at him with obsession.
“But my lecturer will be very terrifying when we are late.”
“Is he more terrifying than me?”
Sheng Xiao’s hair was messy, and sexy. Now that he was naked, and his eyes were intense with lust, how could Mu Qiqi resist the temptation?
“Never mind. I can just retake the paper!” Mu Qiqi surrendered. Soon, she was immersed in all the caressing and kissing. How could she think of anything else?
So, the room was already filled with the scent of their lovemaking in the early morning. The sounds made inside the room would make people flush and wonder.
In fact, it was not just Mu Qiqi who was late, Sheng Xiao was also late for his meeting.
The meeting in Huang Yao was pushed an hour later.
When Jing Yun saw Sheng Xiao come to the meeting looking fresh and energetic, he knew he had just satisfied his need. When a man has a woman that he loved in his arms, a business worth a few million was nothing. He could just postpone it.
…
On the other hand, in the Rong family, after knowing that her brother would not escape the fate of imprisonment, Rong Junhan had totally lost it. Rong Group was as good as dead. The investors withdrew their funds, the shareholders sold their shares. Now, only a mess was left behind to be taken care of. Sadly, there was no one who could take care of the mess.
Her daughter? Hopeless.
She was only thinking about looking for a man to support her all day.
How could they make a comeback under this situation?
The more Rong Junhan thought about it, the more despair she was in. In the end, she said, “Shen Jianchuan is also in this hospital, bring me to him.”
“Mom, are you going to beg this man? He is just a useless man. He cannot help us.”
“Shut up! Just bring me there.” Rong Junhan ordered coldly. Her limbs were plastered so she could not move freely.
“Okay.” Yu Jing got a wheelchair and pushed Rong Junhan to the eighth floor.
After lunch, Shen Jianchuan was getting ready for a nap. When he saw a familiar face, he suddenly felt refreshed.
“You must be the one behind all these. Jianchuan, if it is not you, I really cannot think of any other person in the Shen family who could be this ruthless.”
Shen Jianchuan leaned against the headboard and looked at Rong Junhan calmly. “This is what you deserve for keeping me alive.”
Rong Junhan mocked at herself after hearing his answer. “I had been wondering how a handicapped man who can’t even speak clearly could do so many things behind my back. Perhaps I;ve underestimated you.”
“You are known for taking revenge on people who hurt you, of course you will not let me go for making you lie on the bed for so many years.”
“I was too naïve!”
Hearing their conversation, Yu Jing walked toward Shen Jianchuan angrily. She wanted to punch this man but Rong Junhan stopped her. “If you want to die sooner, you can go ahead.”
“Mom, he is just a useless man.”
“He has a useless body, but his mind is not. If you still want to live, you better get lost now.” Rong Junhan shouted at Yu Jing. She was overwhelmed and nearly reopened her wounds.
Yu Jing stomped her feet and walked out of the ward.
When there were only Shen Jianchuan and Rong Junhan left in the room, she said sadly, “Can you let us go this time?”
