409 Love In One’s Arms
After sending Xu Ziqing off, the dining table fell into a strange silence.
Shi Jingtian frowned. “You’re so noisy all day. If you don’t give me time to be quiet, go back after eating.”
Shi Xi thought to herself that she didn’t say much at all!
However, Shi Jingtian had already told them to leave, so they had no choice but to get up and bid farewell.
“Young Master, please wait.” The butler walked forward and said, “The dessert has just been prepared. You can leave after eating.”
Shi Xu: “I don’t like desserts.”
Shi Xi smelled the sweet scent and tugged at Shi Xu’s sleeve. “Eat two before we leave.”
Tao Yuxuan: “Or you can take them with you.”
Shi Jingtian got up and slowly walked back to the sofa. He said unhappily, “Leave as soon as you finish the dessert.”
Shi Xi and Tao Yuxuan both liked desserts, so they sat down obediently and waited for dessert after dinner.
“Grandpa, let’s go to the study to discuss the company’s current personnel issues, shall we?” Shi Xu wanted to use this time to fight for Xu Ziqing’s position to be revoked.
“I’m already retired. I don’t care about the company’s matters. If there’s anything, look for your father.” Shi Jingtian sat on the sofa and looked at the antique vase in front of him. He then said in disdain, “No matter how many bottles you send, they’re not my Yunlou vase! They’re not pretty at all!”
He was kind to other people’s granddaughters and was picky about his own granddaughters.
The corner of Shi Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. “Grandpa, I’ll definitely find a Yunlou vase that’s exactly the same as yours.”
Shi Jingtian said, “That’s not my vase either.”
She was speechless.
Shi Xi ate the baked biscuits and felt even more wronged.
It wasn’t her who broke it!
If it wasn’t for the biscuits, this daddy would have left long ago!
She was so angry. That vase was so expensive!
After finishing the desserts and drinking the milk tea, everyone bade farewell one by one and left the Shi family’s old residence.
Tao Yuxuan exhaled. “I’m finally out. I didn’t even dare to take a deep breath in there.”
“Grandpa is too strange. He’s so nice to Xu Ziqing and so harsh to us.” Shi Xi sighed. “Is it because I’m not his biological granddaughter, or because I broke his vase?”
Although Shi Jingtian valued sons over daughters, his attitude toward Shi Xi was also average. Instead, he treated Xu Ziqing gently.
“It might be both of them. Look for that vase again.” Tao Yuxuan stretched lazily. “The engagement is off. Looks like there’s nothing else. Xi Xi, I’m going to Charm for a while. Do you want to join me?”
“Xi Xi isn’t going.” Shi Xu pressed on Shi Xi’s shoulder with a warning look in his eyes.
“Leng Qiankun is there too. Cough, cough.” Tao Yuxuan suddenly remembered that Shi Xi’s brother was still by her side. She chuckled. “Then I’ll leave first. Bye bye”
🇫🇷🇴🇲
“Wait.” Shi Xi stopped Tao Yuxuan. “You’re still a pregnant woman. Are you sure you want to go to Charm?”
“It’s not like I’m really pregnant. Now that the engagement has been canceled, it’s fine.” Tao Yuxuan waved her hand and drove away.
Shi Xi looked at the free Tao Yuxuan and yearned to be like her.
She also wanted to go out and play.
“You don’t want to.” Shi Xu interrupted her thoughts and said, “Don’t you still have to go to the production team in the afternoon?”
“I don’t want to go.” Shi Xi, who was dedicated and responsible, only wanted to get off work.
“Then go back to school. After graduation, you can enter the Shi Corporation directly.”
“I’ll go to the production team right away.”

At the Shi family’s old residence.
After the juniors left, Shi Jingtian picked up the vase that Shi Xi had given him and hugged it in his arms with fondness. “Awoo, this is a gift from Xi Xi. She didn’t buy it to brush me off! Where should I put it?”
The corner of the butler’s mouth twitched slightly. “Put it in the living room. You can see it every day.”
