Chapter 245: I Actually Lost to that Bastard Child!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not only the rich families in the high society received the news, but Shen Qinfeng and his family also came to know about it as well.

When Shen Qinfeng received the news, he was shocked. He couldn’t believe it. It happened in just a few days after they left the Shen family. Shen Ruoyi might go crazy when she knew about it.

That’s right. She had gone crazy.

Why could Mu Qiqi be the one but she couldn’t?

Every time she thought of Mama Sheng’s face and the way she had humiliated and jeered at her, she would feel very angry. But now, she had accepted Mu Qiqi. Why?

This was the biggest joke in her life.

“Are the Sheng family crazy? How could they let Sheng Xiao get engaged with that bastard child? Won’t they worry that people might laugh at them?” Cen Suyun shouted.

“What is Sheng Xiao scared of? He is just a man who plays with women. I will wait and see how happy Mu Qiqi will be after getting engaged to that man. I will wait for the siren of an ambulance. I will witness her being sent to the hospital and stay there forever.”

“Mother, I am the rightful young lady of the Shen family. But, I actually lost to that bastard child! I feel terrible just thinking about it.”

Cen Suyun found it hard to accept as well. But, Sheng Xiao was really getting engaged to Mu Qiqi soon. Nobody could change that fact now.

“Huh, I will make the Sheng family regret this.”

Shen Ruoyi’s eyes were red with hatred. She despised Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao. She hated the Shengs and the Shens. She felt like the whole world had betrayed her. They had become her enemies. Then, she made up her mind. Now that she knew the eldest son of the Sheng family liked to get lovers from outside. Wouldn’t it mean that she had a chance?

‘Just you wait, Mu Qiqi…’

…

In fact, once the news spread, Mu Qiqi felt helpless. She could now keep a low profile anymore.

However, no matter how she was criticized at school, she would see Sheng Xiao’s car at the gate every time after class. Whenever she saw it, she would forget about all her worries.

Because now she could enjoy herself being together with Sheng Xiao in public. She would care less about what other people said.

Sheng Xiao leaned against the car waiting for her. When he saw Mu Qiqi, he put his hand behind her neck and kissed her in front of everyone.

It caused a stir among the people around them. Then, Sheng Xiao put his arms around Mu Qiqi and said, “Please, meet my fiancée.”

He smiled. The people around them sensed danger and took a few steps backward.

This man was extraordinarily handsome and outstanding, just like a rare diamond. But, the more outstanding he was, the more dangerous he was.

How brave she must be to be able to be together with this man, and how could she bear with his tricks and mischief?

Having thought of that, they were impressed with Mu Qiqi’s nerve.

But only she knew how warm and ordinary the man was behind the scenes.

“Let’s go.” Sheng Xiao helped Mu Qiqi to get into the car. Then, their car sped off.

Leaving behind all the people commenting about them.

“Mu Qiqi is also a legendary person for being able to be with the crown prince.”

“You’re right. A normal person would almost be scared to death and not be able to breathe when he is with the crown prince.”

“In terms of their reputations, they surprisingly seem to make a good match.”

…

On the way back home, after seeing the crowd at the school gate, Mu Qiqi could not help but ask. “Must you come every day?”

“You don’t want me to come?” Sheng Xiao titled his head and looked at her.

“It’s just too flashy. I am not used to it.” Mu Qiqi scratched her head.

“You should get used to it now. one more thing, we are going to the Shen Mansion for dinner tonight. My mother is discussing the date of our big day with your grandfather.”

Mu Qiqi could not believe that it was true. She pinched her cheek to check if she was dreaming. She had never dreamt about it before. But now, it came true. She was afraid that it was just her hallucination.

“Qi’er…”

“Huh?”

“Although we will be engaged soon, the Sheng family will not acknowledge our relationship. Because to them, I am just fooling around. They think that I am not serious with you.” Sheng Xiao told her the truth. “So, they might not acknowledge you. Or worse, they might make things difficult for you and humiliate you. Getting engaged does not mean that we have won. I just want to let you stay by my side without needing to hide. We still have a long way to go.”

After Mu Qiqi heard this, she felt relieved.

She was uneasy because of the engagement. It happened too fast. Now that she knew the truth, she felt less scared.

“Thank you for telling me the truth, Xiaoxiao.”

“Although they do not take you seriously, I do. No matter who or what they want to do to you, they must go through me first. This is my promise to you.”

Sheng Xiao had never made promises to anyone. Because once a promise was made, he must keep his word.

But at that moment, he made a promise to his love.

“If you are bullied after becoming my fiancée, it would mean that I am useless. I’m marrying you because I love you. I love you very much.”

Hearing his confession, Mu Qiqi was overwhelmed and dove into Sheng Xiao’s arms.

Sheng Xiao stopped the car and embraced her.

There was no doubt about Sheng Xiao’s love toward her. Her birth was not a pleasant story and she was not a very capable girl. Now, she was just a freshman. Moreover, she had chosen a course that people avoided. If it was not because of love, she could not explain why he was so nice to her. She did not know what charm she had in her.

After a moment, the car was on the road again. They arrived at Shen Mansion. The way Grandpa Shen looked at Sheng Xiao was still not good. He harrumphed when he saw him.

As for Mama Sheng, she was delighted to see them. Before they reached the mansion, the date of their engagement had already been decided.

“The third of next month is a great day. Qiqi, should we hold your engagement ceremony on that day?”

Mu Qiqi nodded immediately. She looked at Mama Sheng and then Sheng Xiao. “It is up to you to decide.”

But Sheng Xiao said, “It’s too slow.”

“It is less than twenty days!”

“I say it’s too slow,” Sheng Xiao repeated. “I think next week will be great.”

“We need to prepare for this thoroughly. This is my granddaughter. If you dare to do things half-heartedly, I will change Qiqi’s mind. You wanna try me?” Grandpa Shen threatened Sheng Xiao. “It is not that easy to marry the granddaughter of the Shen family. You want to simply marry her? No way. I will not let you make her suffer.”
