Chapter 214: Isn’t Sheng Xiao Your Boyfriend?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Ruoyi was delighted but Cen Suyun did not understand why her daughter was so excited.

“It’s not like the Sheng family is giving you a post as their CEO. It’s just a small post as the director. Do you have to be so happy about it? You…”

“Mom, I’m still young and I don’t have much working experience. It’s nice given that the Sheng family is willing to give me a chance.” Shen Ruoyi did not want her mother interfering. It was because she might not be able to meet Sheng Xiao every day but it seemed like a better option than getting close to Mu Qiqi.

“You’re a young lady of the Shen family. Why do you always put yourself down? You should really learn from Mu Qiqi here. She’s surely the first when it comes to overestimating herself.”

Shen Ruoyi did not want to listen to her mother’s endless nagging. So, she pushed her out of her room. “Mom, I want a nap now. Please leave…”

“Why do you always fawn upon the Sheng family?” Cen Suyun was doubtful. Now, she started to think about it carefully from the minute Sheng Ruoyi came back up until now.

Shen Ruoyi approached Mu Qiqi and tried her best to please her. Last night, she even fawned upon Mama Sheng. She claimed that she felt nothing for the young master from the Lin family. Did it mean that she liked somebody from the Sheng family?

Cen Quyun covered her own mouth when she thought of that possibility. She pushed open the door of her daughter’s room again.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

Cen Suyun closed the door carefully after making sure that there was no one else around. She then asked Shen Ruoyi, “Come, tell me frankly now. Do you like Sheng Xiao?”

Shen Ruoyi never foresaw that her mother would see through her. She tried her best to deny it, “What are you saying?”

“You’re my daughter. I know you well. You wouldn’t bother about such a job normally. But, you agreed to go there swiftly when Huang Yao gave you an invitation letter. Moreover, you dressed up like a star yesterday. Who were you trying to please?

“Moreover, I even asked you the reason you like Mu Qiqi. You even bought a present for you. Surely, your target is Sheng Xiao, isn’t it?”

Shen Ruoyi knew that she could not hide her secret from her mother anymore. She could only grab her mother’s arm and said, “Mom, please speak softly.”

“How daring you are! How could you dream of becoming the Sheng family’s daughter-in-law? You even pick Sheng Xiao. Do you know how frightening he is? Furthermore, you must not let your grandpa know about this. If not, he’ll disown you and kick you out of the Shen family.”

“Mom, I don’t need the Shen family anymore if I’m married into the Sheng family. I don’t have to bother about the Shen family. So, Mom, please help me. Help me to be his girlfriend!”

“Anybody is better than him. He is Sheng Xiao. Do you think that he will fall in love with just any woman? By the way, I cannot help you.”

Cen Suyun understood it well. If not, she might get into trouble too.

“Fine. Actually, I don’t think that you’re able to help me. But, Mom, please don’t interfere in my business. Don’t stop me from pursuing my own happiness.”

Cen Suyun could only sigh helplessly when she saw how determined her daughter was. She could like anybody as long as it was not Sheng Xiao. Was she unaware of the fact that Sheng Xiao was nothing but a demon?

“Oh…You’re indeed hopeless!”

After that, Cen Suyun left her daughter’s room. It was because she was unable to help her daughter in that matter. Shen Ruoyin could get close to Sheng Xiao through her job. But what about her? She could only approach Sheng Xiao through Mu Qiqi. Yet, her relationship with Mu Qiqi now was cold and distant.

Jing Yun arranged everything perfectly. That night, Shen Ruoyi discussed this with Grandpa Shen about this. She told him that she was going to work in Huang Yao.

Grandpa Shen felt puzzled. Why did Jing Yun meet Shen Ruoyi and not the others? But, he did not object to her decision when he saw how excited she was.

“Go then. Go and train yourself.”

But, Grandpa Shen called Jing Yun secretly. “What is your young master planning at the moment? Why did he ask Ruoyi to go and work in Huang Yao?”

“Old Shen, Miss Ruoyi is a talented person. Moreover, Madam is the one who suggested it. It has nothing to do with the young master.”

Jing Yun knew how to beat around the bush. So, he managed to make up some kind of excuses.

Grandpa Shen thought that Mama Sheng wanted to ease Qiqi’s pain by thinking of a way to console Third Uncle and his family. If Shen Ruoyi was not always at home, it might be able to prevent any more conflict from happening.

Grandpa Shen thought no more of it. So, he told Shen Jianchuan about it when he went and visited him in the afternoon.

Shen Jianchuan was not as old-fashioned as his father. He could feel that Shen Ruoyi liked Sheng Xiao based on what happened lately. However, he did not understand Sheng Xiao’s action. If he had no feelings for Shen Ruoyi, why did he ask her to go and work in Huang Yao?

But, if Sheng Xiao had feelings for Shen Ruoyi, what about Qiqi?

“I just don’t understand what the young people are thinking lately.”

“Let them be since we don’t understand them.”

Shen Jianchuan said nothing to Grandpa Shen. But, how did he come to know about it? Sometimes, one did not have to talk about it regarding one’s relationship with the others.

He just wanted to recover soon so he could go back and protect his daughter. He cared not about Cen Suyun and Shen Ruoyi. If they bullied his daughter, they were nothing but bastards.

However, he was still unable to move much although he could speak now.

So, he could not help his daughter much.

Moreover Mu Qiqi said nothing to him.

***

At night, Mu Qiqi went to the hospital to visit Shen Jianchuan. She wanted to leave when she saw that her father was taking a rest. But, he opened his eyes suddenly and looked at his daughter. “Qiqi, we’re the only ones here. From the time we met each other, we never had a chance to talk properly. Do you have anything you want to tell me?”

“Is it something related to the Shen family? The beautiful aunt came and met me two days ago in the Shen family…”

“Do you know that Shen Ruoyi is going to work in Huang Yao?” Shen Jianchuan talked about the main point directly.

Mu Qiqi nodded her head. “Grandpa even told you about this. I know about it. What’s wrong?”

“But, why are you not sad at all?” Shen Jianchuan looked at Mu Qiqi and smiled softly.

“Dad…”

“Isn’t Sheng Xiao your boyfriend?” Shen Jianchuan asked a probing question. Mu Qiqi stared at him with widened eyes.

“Actually, it’s kind of obvious. You have a tattoo on your ear and it’s Sheng Xiao’s name. Moreover, you told me that you have a boyfriend. But, your boyfriend never shows up. What’s more important is what kind of boyfriend could endure the fact that his girlfriend has another man’s name tattooed on her body? Except the owner of that name. He is your boyfriend.

“In fact, there are a lot of hints here and there. Why don’t you go back to the Shen family? Why do you insist that you want to live out there alone?

“Why did you choose to rely on Sheng Xiao instead of believing in your family?

“Although Sheng Xiao was covered by Jing Yun, I heard from your grandpa regarding how he protected you on various occasions.

“This is more than what a sponsor should do for you. Have you realized it?”
