Chapter 293: How Can She Miss Such a Good Drama?

After drinking, Sheng Xiao looked at Jing Yun. His face and ears were red. This guy, what had he done to Fourth Sister just now?

“Since Seventh Sister was the star tomorrow, you should just rest here in Jing Ting. Qi’er and I will go to sleep now, you can help yourself.”

Having said that, Sheng Xiao blinked at Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi understood his signal and nodded. “I suddenly feel so tired and sleepy. So, I will leave it to you here.”

Then, the couple stood up and went upstairs. They clearly wanted to give Sheng Minglan and Jing Yun a chance to be alone together.

Sheng Minglan knew their intention. Her face blushed. She glanced at Jing Yun. “Since this is the case, then you should just stay with me.”

“Miss…”

Sheng Minglan grabbed Jing Yun’s arm and made him sit beside her on the couch. Then, she leaned her head over. “If you really don’t like me, you can push me away…”

Jing Yun said nothing.

Sheng Minglan smiled when Jing Yun did not push her away. She felt relieved. “Jing Yun, do you think I’m old?”

“Of course not.” Jing Yun responded immediately. “I have no power. I cannot protect you. I don’t want you to suffer.”

“Grandpa has promised not to interfere with my life anymore. At least he will not do it in these two years. You can take your time to consider how you can protect me.” Sheng Minglan’s voice was very soft, but she had gathered all her courage to say this. “I am not sure whether I have done the right thing as well. But I want to be just like Sheng Xiao. I want to be true to my heart. In this way, no matter what happens in the future, I will not regret it because I have worked hard. Isn’t the most terrifying thing in life is that you fear to fail even before you start?”

Despite knowing these facts, Jing Yun was still afraid. Because he knew that some things, once started, would never end easily.

Seeing that Jing Yun wouldn’t budge, Sheng Minglan sighed. “You are just terribly rational.”

Jing Yun let Sheng Minglan lean against him. But, that was all. He had completely suppressed his feelings.

Because he had not decided whether he should start this path of no return…

…

Mu Qiqi was peeping the whole scenario from upstairs. She couldn’t help but feel disappointed. “Fourth Sister has already taken the first step and what is Jing Yun doing?”

Fearing that she might be discovered by the people downstairs, Sheng Xiao quickly dragged Mu Qiqi into their room. “Why are you looking at other people? Haven’t I fed you enough?”

“Xiaoxiao, why is Jing Yun’s mind so inflexible?”

Mu Qiqi did not realize that her nightdress was already being taken off halfway. By the time she realized it, her earlobe was already bitten by her man.

“Since Fourth Sister has already made up her mind, Jing Yun will accept his fate sooner or later. Is it something that you need to worry about? Hmm?”

It made sense.

Mu Qiqi nodded. Then, she felt the man’s lips were starting to move downward.

“Don’t… don’t bite there!”

The whole house was filled with love at that moment. Although Jing Yun did not respond all night, at least he did not resist, did he?

The sky was just starting to get bright when Aunt Wu came. When she saw the mess in the living room, she knew she had to prepare breakfast for four again today.

Jing Yun was afraid that Aunt Wu might see them. So, he carried Sheng Minglan who was still sleeping soundly into the guestroom.

Soon, Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi woke up. And Jing Yun helped Aunt Wu to get breakfast ready.

“Isn’t Fourth Sister attending the engagement ceremony today?” Mu Qiqi asked Jing Yun when she saw that Fourth Sister had not woken up.

“Why wouldn’t she go? Of course, she has to go.” Sheng Xiao grinned. “How can she miss such a good drama?”

“I will wake her up now.” Jing Yun put down his cutlery and said.

…

At the moment, at Sheng Mansion.

All the things that were supposed to be Sheng Minglan’s were sent to Seventh Sister’s room. Since their body measurements were about the same, fitting into the dress was not a big problem. The order of events remained the same. But the only thing that made people uncomfortable was the name on the invitation cards.

Even in the Sheng family, some received the news about the change of the bride-to-be on the next day after the decision was made. How could the change be made so easily?

Seventh Sister’s parents couldn’t control their daughter at all because she always had Grandpa Sheng supporting her. Although they thought that it was absurd for such a thing to happen, there was nothing they could do.

“Xiao Qin, you will still be in charge of the engagement ceremony. Don’t mess it up.”

Grandpa Sheng woke up early in the morning to dress up neatly.

Mama Sheng was very unwilling to be in charge of the ceremony. Seventh Sister had her wish granted, but what about Fourth Sister?

“I know you feel that it was unfair for Fourth Sister. But things had happened. So, we can only compensate her later.”

“Minglan will not come to the engagement ceremony today, will she?” Mama Sheng was quite worried about Sheng Minglan. How could she accept the fact that her fiancé was snatched away from her by her cousin?

“She should be with your son now. If you worry about Fourth Sister, you might as well worry about your son, whether he might cause trouble at the banquet.”

Sheng Xiao causing trouble?

He wouldn’t, would he?

To ensure that nothing went wrong during the ceremony, Mama Sheng made a call to Sheng Xiao. No matter what he wanted to do, as his mother, she should know and prepare her mind before it happened.

But when Sheng Xiao heard Mama Sheng telling him her worries, he chuckled. “Mom, you think too much. I won’t do anything. After all, the guests are not blind. They are enough to cause Seventh Sister a headache. Why should I waste my energy on that?”

“Is your fourth sister feeling okay?”

“More or less.” Sheng Xiao gave an ambiguous answer.

“Then you should get some people to look after her so that she won’t feel that sad.”

Sheng Xiao frowned. Was his mother thinking that Sheng Minglan would not be going to the engagement ceremony?”

By the way, Sheng Minglan did not need other people looking after her.

After breaking free from Grandpa Sheng’s control, she had a whole new life. She was on cloud nine now, why would she be sad?

Anyway, Sheng Xiao did not tell his mother about one thing. Sheng Minglan would make her appearance at the ceremony and surprise the audience.

Thinking of this, Sheng Xiao’s smile broadened. There was going to be a good drama today.

Because of this, he reminded Mu Qiqi. “Qi’er, hurry up. We need to get going now. Your grandfather is attending the event too. Don’t you miss him?”

“Of course, I do.” Mu Qiqi wore a silver A-lined Chanel dress. At the waistline, was a black ribbon. The dress suited Mu Qiqi very well, making her look like an angel.

Sheng Xiao helped her to wear her coat. With her coat, she looked even slimmer.

“Where are Fourth Sister and Jing Yun?”

“They will go later.” Sheng Xiao smiled playfully. He let his little one grab his arm and they walked out of Jing Ting together.

In the guestroom, Sheng Minglan was still putting on makeup. She was doing it to amaze the audience when she made her appearance.
