Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 254
Chapter 254: Sheng Xiao, Is That How You Treat a Toy?
“Sheng Xiao, I’m Hui Lan. I know that you’re going to be engaged tomorrow but…”
Mu Qiqi retracted her hand after she heard that. She was about to open the door but now she remained motionless. It was because she did not know what was happening right now.
“I can’t reconcile with that fact. I just need to ask. Could you please refrain from going through with the engagement tomorrow?”
“Just tell him your feelings.” Seventh Sister was slightly anxious. She urged her friend. “Certainly he needs a reason if you don’t want him to be engaged tomorrow.”
“I… actually, I’ve had my eye on you for a long time. Both of our families are powerful and influential. Moreover, I’m your seventh sister’s good friend. I feel that I couldn’t let you go. Thus, I came here late at night to ask you about it. I know it’s rather shameful. But, could you consider not getting engaged with that little girl? What if I tell you that I like you too?”
There was no response.
On the other hand, Mu Qiqi had taken out her phone and recorded what Hui Lan had said just now.
“Could you please open the door?”
“Sheng Xiao, it’s rather rude if you act like this.”
At that moment, Fourth Sister came to Sheng Xiao’s room. She soon frowned when she saw both Seventh Sister and her friend standing there. “What are you doing here?”
“I want to meet Sheng Xiao.”
“Haven’t you given up yet?” Fourth Sister was a smart person. She certainly knew what Seventh Sister was doing right now. “Do you know who is in his room now?”
“Who?”
“It’s not Sheng Xiao,” Fourth Sister replied. “I never thought that you could do such a thing. How dare you come and persuade him not to get engaged given that the engagement is tomorrow?”
Seventh Sister’s facial expression turned ugly. She soon turned and looked at her friend. Both of them blushed deeply. It was because they had not foreseen this kind of result.
“Fourth Sister, I just hope that Sheng Xiao will have more choices given that the young girl from the Shen family is indeed not suitable for Sheng Xiao.”
Fourth Sister did not want Mu Qiqi to listen to those kinds of things. She soon called Sheng Xiao. “Where are you? There’s something going on here outside of your room. Come quickly.”
“Sister…”
“Since you claimed that you want him to have more choices, I’ll help you to call him here.”
Sheng Xiao hung up the phone and left Papa Sheng immediately. He returned to his own room but he saw three people standing in front of his room.
“What’s wrong?”
“Sheng Xiao, you need to take care of it on your own.” Fourth Sister looked at Seventh Sister and her friend seriously.
“It’s late at night. Seventh Sister, did you plan to make a scene?” Sheng Xiao said rather harshly and coldly. It was frightening. “Then, let’s go to the living room.”
“Sheng Xiao, you need to respect the guest. Hui Lan is one of your guests tomorrow.”
“Is that so? Guests should really stay where they should be. I don’t think that she should appear in front of my room.” Sheng Xiao signaled for them to leave directly.
Seventh Sister could not make any response. She could only lead her friend away. On the other hand, Sheng Xiao signaled for his Fourth Sister to console his little one in the room.
Fourth Sister nodded her head and gestured that she would help him.
When they reached the living room, the Sheng family was invited too, including Papa Sheng, Mama Sheng, Grandpa Sheng and Sheng Xiao’s Third and Fourth Uncle.
Seventh Sister was Fourth Uncle’s child.
“Sheng Xiao, it’s late at night. What are you doing?”
“I don’t want to make a scene here. But, Third Uncle, I just want to know how Fourth Uncle teaches his daughter.” Sheng Xiao sat down on the sofa and he was not afraid of anybody.
Grandpa Sheng had prepared himself for fear that his grandson would make a scene there. He adored and hated Sheng Xiao at the same time.
“Sheng Xiao, what do you mean?” Fourth Uncle stared at Sheng Xiao and asked him.
“I just want to know what Seventh Sister wants. She brought her friend to my room one night before my engagement. What does it mean? Did you plan to send your friend to me?” Sheng Xiao stared at Seventh Sister directly and asked her. “You’re the young lady of the Sheng family and you’re even my elder sister. How could you do that? Is it proper?”
“Sheng Xiao, I’m just being nice. Moreover, Hui Lan likes you. I just hope that you’ll have more choices.”
Not only Sheng Xiao, Mama Sheng felt angry too when she heard that.
“It seems like I’m not Sheng Xiao’s mom but you are instead. How could you prepare another daughter-in-law for my son?”
“Aunt, that’s not what I meant.”
“If that’s not what you meant, certainly you must know about dignity and propriety given that you’re a young lady of the Sheng family. You bring another girl who has not married here to Sheng Xiao. Do you know how great an influence it would have on your friend? Do you want to ruin her reputation?
“Do you have any right to decide what kind of woman Sheng Xiao likes?”
Seventh Sister blushed deeply. She was slightly helpless because Mama Sheng had never gotten so angry at any family member from the Sheng family.
“That little girl doesn’t deserve Sheng Xiao.”
“It’s none of your business.”
Grandpa Sheng was angry when he saw his family members arguing among themselves. “That’s enough. Although Seventh Sister was over the line, she did it out of good intention. Moreover, the guest is still here. Don’t embarrass her.”
“Grandpa, I just want to…”
“Don’t you think of anything else. Qiqi is there inside Sheng Xiao’s room. She just heard what you did.” Mama Sheng was so angry that she started trembling. She said to Seventh Sister directly, “Now, the Shen family knows how the young lady of the Sheng family is. There’s not much difference between you and a procurer.”
“Xiao Qin, don’t go too far.” Grandpa Sheng scolded Mama Sheng immediately.
“Do you want your friend to be engaged to me?” After a short while, Sheng Xiao voiced out all of a sudden.
No one knew what he wanted. But, they could feel that he was about to do something wicked and bad.
“Fine, let’s get engaged. Then…I’ll tie you up and throw you into the Atlantic Ocean. You know very well that I like to watch how sharks hunt down their prey. Or, we could try another way. There’s a new amusement park in the USA and you don’t have to put on the seatbelt while you ride the roller coaster there. I always want somebody to try it. Since Miss Hui Lan likes me so much, why don’t you go and try it out? To see how exciting it is.
“Or, do you like the sun, Miss Hui Lan? I love seeing people being hung up and stay under the blazing sun up the mountain…”
“That’s enough, Sheng Xiao. Is that how you treat a person? Do you have to treat her like a toy?” Seventh Sister was indeed furious. “It’s not her fault that she likes you.”
“Since she wants to be with me, it’s fine even if she suffers. I like to treat women like that. Is that wrong?”
“You…”
“Don’t you want to ask whether I want any other choices? How about it? Are you satisfied with my answer?” Sheng Xiao looked at Seventh Sister icily. “I’ve been like this since I was young. Is that the first time you’re seeing me like this?”
Seventh Sister’s lips trembled. She could not say anything more.
Moreover, her friend was so frightened that she paled.
“I think that I should head home now.” Hui Lan could not endure Sheng Xiao’s cold stare. It was frightening.
“Send Miss Hui Lan home.” Grandpa Sheng ordered his servants immediately.
