Chapter 395: Return To Work At Huang Yao

Chapter 395: Return To Work At Huang Yao

“You…”

Before Sixth Brother could manage a word, Sheng Xiao strode into the Sheng’s house living room as he always did.

And that from scene, Mu Qiqi understood even as she watched from inside the car why Xiao Xiao would insist on leaving the Sheng family: he might have the nobleness of a Crown Prince here, but every member of the Sheng family around him held no sincerity.

They would rely on him, use him, mock him and even swindle him.

Everyone knows that Sheng Xiao was powerful, but none of them knew that the Crown Prince of Huang Yao was a person of flesh and blood too!

“Sister, hurry up. I’ll take you to put on your disguise.” Third Brother quickly said.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Sheng family were in the living room. Old Sheng, however, had stopped Gu Ziling from coming to add to her mystery and as a surprise for Sheng Xiao.

“Eighth Brother, and I thought you really left this time. I just didn’t imagine that it’s just a drama you throw in to torment Grandfather.”

“Sixth Brother, here I thought you’d learn your lesson after what happened to Seventh Sister. Why is your mouth still so hateful, then?” Sheng Xiao asked in return.

“Never mind that. Didn’t you dump Mu Qiqi even though you acted as if you cared so much about her? Guess she’s not as important as being Crown Prince. Why the goody-two-shoes act?”

“Sixth Brother!” For Old Sheng, the thing he hated most is hearing Mu Qiqi’s name. “Eighth Brother has come back after so long. If you make him leave again, you can leave too.”

Upset, Sixth Brother turned away and said nothing.

Sheng Xiao himself did not offer an explanation either. “It’s fine. You would soon see how awesome I am eventually, Sixth Brother. Isn’t that so?”

“Stop trying to hurt the feelings of your own family now that you’re back. There shall be no mention of Qi this or Qi that in this house from now on… by the way, you haven’t met the daughter of the Gu family, have you? Let’s have you two get to know each now.”

And that was the highlight of all these theatrics, was it not?

Sheng Xiao leaned back on the couch but did not refuse.

Still, he lifted a brow as he looked up to find a familiar figure standing upstairs.

He did not expect her to look good in the unlined gown the servants wear, and look completely different at that.

He’ll have her wear it specially for him later.

As a matter of fact, Gu Ziling was upstairs as well, and had been observing Sheng Xiao for some time.

She found that the man was really dangerous and was no different from a fully armed monster, with elements of uncertainty overflowing from him.

Like the legends had claimed, he was really arrogant—one could see how determined and ruthless he could be from those eyes of his.

Just as she had imagined, a good man would stand out even if he was dumped into a pile of other men.

Gu Ziling smiled. She was satisfied with that man!

Soon, a butler came upstairs to called for her, who had already prettied herself grandly in preparation of meeting Sheng Xiao.

Meanwhile, Mu Qiqi studied Gu Ziling from every possible angle, and suddenly found her rather familiar.

Soon, Gu Ziling arrived downstairs and appeared before everyone, with Old Sheng promptly smiling at Sheng Xiao. “Here’s our family’s important guest. Come meet her.”

Sheng Xiao looked up at Gu Ziling.

She was beautiful, but she was a lot less alluring compared to his Qi’er upstairs.

Being a proud person, Gu Ziling naturally wouldn’t go to Sheng Xiao to greet him.

Beside her, the old man looked at her before turning to Sheng Xiao, “Why are you just sitting there? This is Ziling.”

In other words, he was telling Sheng Xiao to take the initiative.

Sheng Xiao, however, sensed his little one’s eyes from upstairs and did not entertain the old man. “Grandfather, don’t you know how Seventh Sister wronged me from the very start?”

The old man scowled.

After all, Sheng Xiao was hinting that he was doing the same obscene, underhanded things Seventh Sister had done.

“On the night before I’m engaged with Qi’er, Seventh Sister sent her friend inside my room… it’s unfortunate that the same thing is happening today again. Does everyone here think I lack women?”

“What nonsense are you spouting?”

“Perhaps there’s other good news in the family? Could you be remarrying, Grandfather? Well, allow me to congratulate you…”

Old Sheng promptly turned to Gu Ziling to find her telling Sheng Xiao, “You’ve misunderstood me, Crown Prince.”

“Have you already forgotten your ex already?” Sheng Xiao asked with a sharp look then.

Gu Ziling did not anticipate that behavior from Sheng Xiao to expose her without warning.

How could he appear so composed and bold?

“I would eventually.”

“Sure, you can forget the love of your life, but I won’t.” Sheng Xiao spoke matter-of-factly, and when he noticed the dark look on Gu Ziling face, he added, “You seem a little nervous, Miss Gu. What, are you afraid of me?”

Of course she was afraid of that mouth of his!

“Eighth Brother, how could you embarrass Miss Gu in front of everyone?!” Old Sheng quickly stopped their exchange.

“I’ve always been like this. Is this the first day you’ve come to know me?” Sheng Xiao appeared at once dangerous and humorless.

“Don’t you know… I would announce…”

“Announce what?”

The old man paused halfway. He had wanted to say that he would announce Sheng Xiao’s engagement with Gu Ziling tomorrow. However, given Sheng Xiao’s usual temper, he would definitely be reluctant in every way if he knew beforehand.

With that being the case, the old man had to keep the good part for tomorrow.

“That could wait. Now that you’re home, we’ll have all the chance we need, and I’ll also consider that you have chosen Huang Yao and our family. Do not mention Mu Qiqi from now on, since there is a difference between your status and hers.”

“Do you mean that there’s no difference between me and this… Miss Gu?”

“Miss Gu is our guest. Take good care of her and don’t be so hostile towards her.”

“She shouldn’t be afraid of my hostility since she’s so proud and aloof.” Sheng Xiao smiled thoughtfully. “Things are getting interesting. I’m suddenly eager for tomorrow.”

“Go back to your room to rest, and get back to work at Huang Yao on the day after tomorrow. Second Brother, go to Eighth Brother’s room later and hand over your duties.”

“No need.” Sheng Xiao quickly said. “Save it for the day after tomorrow.”

In the end, the old man was convinced that Sheng Xiao wouldn’t leave now that he’s returned, therefore finding no need to rush things.

From the looks of Eighth Brother’s plain clothing, he knew that he must have suffered when he was with the Shen family.

“Return to Huang Yao and become the Crown Prince again. There are things you can’t force, and those wretched ties should have been cut off anyway.

“And let me have a happy birthday tomorrow!”

“Well, I’m wishing you happy birthday now…” Sheng Xiao told the old man as he rose, since he might not have the chance to do so tomorrow.
