Chapter 504: I Don’t Want to Embarrass You
When Mu Qiqi got home in the afternoon, she had heard about what Lin Mu’an did to himself. Imagining his hand dripping with blood, Mu Qiqi thought that Lin Mu’an was really merciless toward himself.
Nevertheless, it ended happily with a desirable result.
But after finishing talking about the matter between Lu Qianqian and Lin Mu’an, Mu Qiqi sat on Sheng Xiao’s lap.
Sheng Xiao glanced at her and knew she must be up to something.
“Say it.”
“The university is organizing an exchange program. There are only a few of us in the Faculty of Forensic Science. And Feng Shanshan and I are the most experienced ones. So, we are selected to represent our faculty. The program lasts four days.” As she was explaining, she drew circles on Sheng Xiao’s chest.
“Where is it?”
“Y City,” replied Mu Qiqi. She was looking at the changes on Sheng Xiao’s face as she was talking. “It’s a rare opportunity. I really want to take part in it.”
“When are you going for that program?” Surprisingly, Sheng Xiao did not question her. And he did not look upset at all.
“Early the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Sheng Xiao patted Mu Qiqi’s butt. He did not seem to be paying attention to her at all when she told him she would be away for four days.
“Then I shall take my shower now.” Mu Qiqi got down from Sheng Xiao’s lap. But Sheng Xiao grabbed her wrist.
“Wait for me.”
Mu Qiqi nodded. The couple went into the bathroom together. Before Mu Qiqi could react, Sheng Xiao pinned her on the wall and kissed her fiercely. Although they had been together for so long, this man’s thirst for her did not seem to decrease.
Mu Qiqi could not bear it and quickly hugged his neck.
Close to her nose, Sheng Xiao said with a hoarse sexy voice, “Jump to me, I will hold you.”
“No. You always bully me.”
Sheng Xiao did not wait and took off her pants. He held her leg up and penetrated her. Then, he lifted her up and started thrusting inside her. This always made her crazy.
“Don’t you like it?”
Mu Qiqi was leaning against the wall, gasping for air. “How will I not like it? Sheng Xiao, you bastard. Don’t you know I will laugh in my heart whenever you do anything to me?”
Sheng Xiao thrusted into her harder and harder until they both climaxed. Mu Qiqi collapsed onto Sheng Xiao. “I know you don’t like me taking risks and being away from you. But, being your woman, I must not be useless. I have to maintain my own charm, have my own career and life. I will feel content when the other people mention about me being a forensic doctor when they talk about your wife in the future. I don’t want to embarrass you.”
Having said that, Mu Qiqi buried her face in Sheng Xiao’s chest. “You just don’t know how brilliant you are.”
Sheng Xiao smiled and cleaned his little one gently before carrying her to the bed.
“So, don’t be sulking at me when I am out. I don’t want to leave you either. You know I am the clingiest person to you in the world.”
Sheng Xiao was finally satisfied after her confessions. He wrapped Mu Qiqi in the blanket. “I have no objection to you going out.”
“Not at all?”
“No!” said Sheg Xiao seriously.
Mu Qiqi was satisfied. She felt comfortable under his care. Hugging the man’s waist, she closed her eyes. But, why was Sheng Xiao not angry at all? It’s simple. He had already decided when Mu Qiqi told her about the students exchange program. Wasn’t she going to Y City? It just so happened that he was going to meet an important person there. If that’s the case, he would consider it a trip with the little one to relax. However, he could not tell her this now.
But, Mu Qiqi was grown up now and she had her own privacy and space now. What if she did not want to see him?
So, taking his chance before Mu Qiqi fell asleep, Sheng Xiao asked again.
“Qi’er, don’t you think that we are like Siamese twins, too clingy with each other?”
“Who said that?” Mu Qiqi was annoyed. “You are my spiritual support. Why should I look at all those sloppy things outside? I would rather look at my man all the time. Nobody looks better than you.”
“Won’t you feel too overwhelmed? Don’t you want your privacy?”
“I want it too. But I have no secret from you,” said Mu Qiqi naturally, “Xiaoxiao, although you are old and have a midlife crisis, I will still stick with you when you are eighty. In fact, I am the one who should be worried about you getting tired of me. After all, you are the invincible Sheng Xiao.”
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
Old?
Midlife crisis?
This little one must have been too bored in her life.
Apparently, he was not the only one worrying. They both felt that they needed each other and never wanted to be apart from each other.
He thought he was mentally ill..
He was scared that Xiao Qi’er would not stand his desire to control. But seeing Xiao Qi’er want so much to cling onto him, Sheng Xiao was relieved. Perhaps it was because he loved her too much that he was afraid that he might hurt her.
Seeing the little one falling asleep, Sheng Xiao cupped her cheeks. “A lifetime is a long time. Don’t get tired of me.”
“Yeah.” Mu Qiqi heard something and responded instinctively with her eyes closed. Then, she hugged Sheng Xiao tighter subconsciously.
…
On the other hand, Sheng Kai did not go home since the charity dinner. The rumors were too bad that he did not want to see Gu Ziling’s face for the time being.
At the same time, the rumors about the Gu family were also being circulated. Luckily, Papa Gu regained consciousness and stabilized the situation, relieving Gu Corporation from the crisis.
Nobody knew about Papa Gu’s condition for now because the sedative prescribed by the doctor made his symptoms come and go from time to time.
When he was normal, Mama Gu would let him make an appearance in front of the employees. They had somehow managed to hide the truth from the shareholders and prevented chaos in the company.
After knowing the situation in Gu Corporation had improved, Grandpa Sheng’s attitude toward Gu Ziling softened. But he no longer trusted her as much as he used to.
She was married into the Sheng family legally after all. Grandpa Sheng had to respect the Gu family.
Hence, during dinner, he said to Gu Ziling, “You should visit Second Brother later. You are husband and wife, there should be nothing that cannot be solved. If you keep on having a cold war with him, when will I be able to see my great-grandson?”
“Okay, Grandpa.”
If it was before, Gu Ziling would not do such a lowly thing to comply. But the situation now had changed.
And taking advantage of Sheng Kai’s absence, Sheng Bowen mentioned the issue again. “Grandpa, the collaboration with Tiffany & Co…”
“Don’t say anything more. Just listen to Second Brother,” said Grandpa Sheng, “I have read the risk assessment report. It is still within the tolerance range.”
Hu Ran signaled Third Brother to stop talking. Sometimes, they just need to suffer some losses before they know how destructive it was.
