Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 216
Chapter 216: Are Both the Mother and Daughter Mad?
She was a part of the Shen family. Hence, she would not be afraid of those rumors.
After Shen Ruoyi went to work in Huang Yao, Cen Suyun started to think about other plots and schemes. She had a new direction now. It was because she felt that what her daughter said was right. If her daughter succeeded in gaining Sheng Xiao’s love, surely she would become a young lady in Huang Yao. Then, her daughter would have all kinds of diamonds and treasures which she wanted.
So, she felt that Shen Ruoyi’s idea might not be that crazy after all.
But, how could she help Shen Ruoyi?
Although she hated to admit it, she needed Mu Qiqi. So, she had no choice but to apologize to Mu Qiqi and admit to her that she was wrong indeed.
By the way, her daughter’s future was more important. She could still endure that little bastard child for the time being.
What she did not know was that Mu Qiqi could still endure what she did to her before. But, now she and her daughter had their eyes on Xiaoxiao. That was her last straw and she would never tolerate them anymore.
After two days, Mu Qiqi returned to the Shen family and had dinner with them. At that time, Cen Suyun did not stand against Mu Qiqi when she met her again. But, she seemed rather awkward.
She held herself back the whole night. When they almost finished their meal, she could not help but say to Mu Qiqi, “Qiqi, do you know that your Sister Ruoyi is working in Huang Yao now?”
“Why? Are you showing off in front of me?” Mu Qiqi put down her bowl and chopsticks and answered Cen Suyun.
“I just want to say that if you meet Sheng Xiao later on, tell him to take good care of your sister.”
“I wondered why you changed so drastically tonight. Qiqi, it seems that she has a favor to ask of you.” Huang Yu saw what Cen Suyun was trying to do. She folded her arms. “Cen Suyun, do you really think that everyone will listen to you? Do you think that you could do whatever you want? Moreover, you think that everyone should bow down to you and your daughter.
“Qiqi, you don’t have to bother about her.”
Shen Ruoyi trusted herself more. She believed that she could achieve her aim as long as she stayed in Huang Yao. She did not have to fawn on Qiqi.
“Mom, it’s my own business. I don’t need other people’s help. Moreover, she has a different surname. What could she help me with? Did you forget about what happened before? When I returned that day, I bought a lot of presents for her. But, did she accept my generosity?”
While Cen Suyun had held herself back, Shen Ruoyi had started to become harsh toward Qiqi.
Did the mother change her soul with her daughter? It was hilarious.
It was because Shen Ruoyi knew that Mu Qiqi was useless to her now. She was even blocking her. So, she did not try to be nice to Mu Qiqi anymore.
“But…”
“Don’t say anything else. I can deal with it on my own. But Mu Qiqi, you still need to address me as your sister the next time you meet me. You should behave yourself since I’m the eldest daughter in the Shen family. Everyone, I’m done eating now.” Then, she left and went straight to her room.
Cen Suyun went after her. Everyone was left in a daze.
“Are both the mother and daughter mad?” Huang Yu kicked the chair.
But, Mu Qiqi could understand them. She knew what they were plotting now. Looking at Shen Ruoyi, did she really think that she could marry into a rich family by then?
She would not object to it if Shen Ruoyi had picked anyone other than Sheng Xiao in the Sheng family. But, she could not tolerate it if it was Sheng Xiao who she wanted.
“Qiqi, could you tell me. Do you know why Sheng Xiao asked Shen Ruoyi to work in Huang Yao?”
It’s nothing good. Second Aunt, you need to keep it a secret.” Mu Qiqi whispered to Huang Yu.
Huang Yu nodded her head after she listened to Qiqi. She even laughed. “Then, I’ll wait for a good scene… Now, it seems like Shen Ruoyi is so happy that she is going to soar up the sky any minute. Does she think that she belongs to the Sheng family now?”
Mu Qiqi said nothing more. But, she did not know how long Shen Ruoyi could stay in Huang Yao.

That night, Mu Qiqi went home and had a shower with Sheng Xiao. When she was about to retire to bed, Qianqian called. She sounded rather excited. “Qiqi… I’m going to tell you some good news now. I’m not going overseas anymore because I’m going to be acting soon.
“Acting?” Mu Qiqi never thought that Lu Qianqian would want to become a star. She felt the entertainment circle seemed rather far from her.
“My dad’s friend has a film company. They feel that my appearance is rather nice. So, they asked me to go for an audition.”
“If you like it, surely I’ll support you. But, I’m worried about your past…”
Those celebrities’ dark histories would always be exposed. Now, cyberbully happened everywhere and at any time. She did not want her friend to be hurt.
“Don’t worry, my agent will take care of that.”
What Qianqian needed to do now was to divert her attention. Mu Qiqi understood what kind of pain Duan Shao’an had brought to Qianqian. If she wanted to be a celebrity, let her be.
“Remember to give me an autograph when you become famous!”
“Of course! You’re my best friend!” Lu Qianqian ended her call with Mu Qiqi happily. Then, she received a call from her agent.
It was rather late now. Her agent was indeed responsible.
Her agent gave her a lot of information. Although it was only a supporting role, she still needed to get a clear picture regarding the script and the storyline.
Moreover, her agent sent her a list of books. “This is the list of the books which are written by the writer. If you have time, take a look at them.”
Lu Qianqian soon rolled her eyes when she took a look at the titles of the books. For example, Everlasting Man, Casanova, and so on. She flipped through the story and the story talked about nothing but how to pursue girls. Were these books meant for reading?
Then, Lu Qianqian took a look at the name of the writer. It was Lin Mu’an!
What kind of garbage! Did he think that women were nothing but toys? How could his scripts be filmed into a drama?
Lu Qianqian was rather disappointed in men given what happened between her and Duan Shao’an. Now, she had to read that pompous man, Lin Mu’an’s rubbish stories. No wonder. They had the word ‘an’ in their names. She vowed to herself that she would surely kick him at his balls if she ever met her.
But, she did not know that a doomed fate was about to start soon.
She did not even remember that she had met Lin Mu’an before when she went shopping with Mu Qiqi that afternoon.

On the other hand, Mu Qiqi was staring at her phone with a dazed expression. Sheng Xiao asked her, “Does Lu Qianqian want to go into acting?”
“Yes. So, I’m worried about her. If her past is revealed, it’ll definitely hurt her again.” Mu Qiqi lay in Sheng Xiao’s embrace. “Why didn’t she choose to do something else? I just can’t understand her train of thought.”
“Now, everything could be revealed in the entertainment circle. You’re overthinking. Moreover, the Lu family is rich. You don’t have to worry about her.”
“I only have a friend. I’m sad when I see her hurt by others.”
“What drama is she going to be auditioned for? I’ll ask Jing Yun to take a look at it.”
“It’s called Reconciliation. I’ll look it up on the internet.” Then, Mu Qiqi took out her phone. After a short while, she sat up from the bed suddenly and looked at Sheng Xiao.
“What’s wrong?”
“The scriptwriter and the author… is Lin Mu’an.” Mu Qiqi gave Sheng Xiao a strange look.
Was this considered a peculiar fate?
