novelAt This Point, Are You Still Dreaming?
| ← Ch.0926 | Ch.0928 → |
Seeing each other again after the matter with Elder Liu, the two brothers' hearts were too complicated.
However, since this was Old Master Sheng's wish, Sheng Xiao would do it no matter what. Therefore, the two of them arranged to meet at the seaside.
Sheng Kai drove alone while Sheng Xiao brought Xu Che along. The two brothers leaned against their cars and did not say a word for quite a while.
Sheng Xiao then broke the silence."Song Jiang is still watching you."
"Unless he hears the news of your death one day, he will never truly trust me from the bottom of his heart." Sheng Kai tilted his head and lit a cigarette as he blocked the wind."Tell me, why did you ask me to meet you?"
"It's not that I want to meet you. It's the old man."
"Then, forget it." Sheng Kai sneered and exhaled smoke from his nostrils, "It's too late to say anything. I'm involved in the Liu family's matter. I also had a part in forcing Elder Liu to his death. My life is now connected to the Song family. Eighth Brother, I'll see you on the battlefield in the future."
Sheng Xiao did not say anything, but he frowned.
"Song Jiang asked me to deal with you, so I'll spare no effort. Based on your ability, you don't have to take my schemes seriously.
"Since there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first. You know that I'm getting married again."
With that, Sheng Kai threw away his cigarette butt and opened the door of his car. After he got in, Sheng Xiao asked, "What exactly are you doing this for?"
"You're extremely smart. It's impossible that you can't guess what I'm doing this for. There's only one person in my life, and I'll do everything I can to protect her."
With that, Sheng Kai closed the car door.
Of course, Sheng Xiao would not chase after him. He also got back into his car. From Sheng Kai's words, he got some information. First of all, Song Jiang asked Sheng Kai to deal with the Sheng family, to go against him. Second, Sheng Kai was really doing it for the woman, for Song Qiaozhi.
It seemed that in the future, the brothers would turn on each other.
..
It was unknown when it started, but things in Jianchuan had become more and more complicated. Every day, there was a storm.
Although Mu Qiqi did not know about Sheng Xiao and her father's plans, nor did she know that Sheng Xiao had met Sheng Kai, she did not know why, but she had a feeling that recently, Xiao Xiao seemed to be in a gloomier mood than before.
She got the feeling even though he rarely talked at home.
When she was free, Mu Qiqi would play music at home as part of her prenatal education. However, when she saw the news about marriage between Sheng Kai and Song Qiaozhi, she could not help looking for the man in the study."Is it okay to just let them be?"
"Do you think you can stop them?" Sheng Xiao looked sideways at Mu Qiqi.
"What if he comes after you in the future?"
Her premonition was really accurate. She could even guess such things.
"He can't deal with me, " Sheng Xiao answered without hesitation."Do your prenatal education properly."
Mu Qiqi got down from Sheng Xiao's legs and revealed her slightly protruding belly."You should say hello to your son."
"I'll call him tonight."
When Mu Qiqi heard this, she immediately felt that Sheng Xiao's words had a double meaning."I'm serious. I want you to talk to the child."
"When have I ever not been serious?"
Mu Qiqi was speechless. She puffed out her belly and left the study. The day had come where this man could accompany her for a full day, but he only stayed in the study and did his own things."Baby, be good. Your father doesn't care about you. I love you."
Sheng Xiao heard her as she left and his lips curled up slightly. That girl.
In the evening, Shen Jianchuan called. The best candidate from the education industry to be supported had been found. Together with the most professional planning team he had hired, the education industry would take on a new look in less than half a year.
This was a move.
The old lady of the Liu family should have reached Jianchuan by now. Sheng Xiao would arrange a meeting at another time.
With that in mind, Sheng Xiao put down the document in his hand and got up to go to the living room.
Mu Qiqi was playing music as she lay on the sofa and fell asleep. Her slightly protruding tummy was exposed.
Sheng Xiao sat down beside her and pulled down her skirt for her. He also turned off the music. How could such a noisy song be considered part of prenatal education?
When Mama Sheng came back from shopping, she immediately said to Sheng Xiao, "Take your wife back to her room. Don't show off your love in front of this middle aged woman. Xiao Qi is really blessed. When I was pregnant with you back then, I didn't have a good time."
"In this regard, you're better than your father."
Sheng Xiao's brows were slightly smug, especially when he saw Mu Qiqi sleeping soundly. At least, after she got pregnant, he had a lot of things that he should spoil.
"However, I heard from a few friends that Second Brother is going to marry the young lady of the Song family. Is that true?"
"Yes." Sheng Xiao nodded indifferently.
"I don't know what he's thinking. No matter how much he hates his family, he shouldn't do those heinous things."
"Mom, I'll carry Qi'er back to our room first." Sheng Xiao did not want to talk about the Song family or Sheng Kai at home.
"Go ahead. Be careful."
..
Not long after night fell, Jianchuan became much cooler due to the night wind.
Sheng Kai drove back to his apartment from Changrong Electronics. However, he saw Gu Ziling downstairs blocking his door with a confused expression on her face. Sheng Kai did not know what that meant.
"Ah Kai, I know that you and Song Qiaozhi were forced to get married. You don't really like her, do you?"
"At this point, are you still dreaming?" Sheng Kai asked her directly."I hope you know that we're divorced. There's no point in continuing to get involved."
"But... no one wants me. Who wants me now?"
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do everything you did in the first place?" Sheng Kai controlled his emotions and asked her again, "Gu Ziling, I hope you understand that everything has changed. Your grandfather pushed me into this. I can't get out, so don't come looking for me again. I don't want to see you either."
"Ah Kai..." Gu Ziling grabbed him. At this moment, Song Qiaozhi also walked out of the elevator.
Seeing this scene, she was stunned."Is it a bad time for me to come back?"
"Let's go home. After we move these things, we'll sell the apartment." Sheng Kai quietly broke free from Gu Ziling's grip and spoke softly to Song Qiaozhi.
"Miss Gu, can you not pester my husband endlessly?" Song Qiaozhi faced Gu Ziling and spoke in a very rude tone."Everyone needs to move on. You know what the Song family does. If you still want your life, don't come back. I can't promise that I'll be as good-tempered next time."
With that, the two of them opened the door and entered the room.
Gu Ziling leaned against the door and slid down. Her heart was filled with unwillingness, but she was afraid of death. Very afraid of death...
She couldn't afford to pester the Song family, so she could only admit defeat.
In the room, Sheng Kai held song Qiaozhi's hand and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know she would appear."
"You don't have to explain. I believe you. After today's scare, I reckon she won't dare to come again in the future, " Song Qiaozhi replied generously.
