Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 817: I Hate Being Brushed Off

Sheng Xiao ignored her and quietly locked the door behind him. Then, he turned her around and pressed her against the bed. “You’re a grown up. Why did you run away from home? When you had a crush on me back then, you wished you could follow me to Hell. Now, you know how to throw a tantrum?”

Mu Qiqi was so angry that she wanted to bite the man’s nose, but she could not bear to do so.

“You didn’t tell me anything, and it made me feel very uncomfortable. I’m immature, and I’m not good enough, but I’ve never dragged you guys down, have I? I’ve never caused trouble, have I? I don’t like you excluding me from everything. Everyone in the world knows about it, and I’m still confused. Am I stupid?”

Mu Qiqi wasn’t willing to be outdone. “If you have anything, you’ll tell Xu Che, you’ll look for Tang Yan, and even Grandpa and Dad. Each and every one of them knows more than me. What am I to you? Am I still the closest person to you?

“In short, if you don’t admit your mistake, I won’t go back.”

Mu Qiqi tilted her head and fought for her rights.

“Then why don’t you think about it? About the fact that I can tell anyone, but not you?”

“Sheng Xiao, I’m telling you. If you want to hide anything from me from now on, you must keep it a total secret from me. Either you tell me everything or don’t tell me a single thing. I hate being brushed off the most.”

Sheng Xiao called out her full name. He scooped her up, turned over, and pressed her against his legs, then slapped her butt hard.

“Now the whole world knows that the insufferably arrogant Sheng Xiao has been searching for his woman high and low. Aren’t you proud?”

Mu Qiqi was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes. “You only know how to act shamelessly with me.”

Sheng Xiao heard her sobbing. He picked her up and sat her on top of himself. “I’ll tell you everything in the future, okay?”

“Are you sure?”

This thing was getting more and more stubborn, but there was nothing he could do about it. He was the one who spoiled her, so no one could blame her.

“Are you still going to run away from home in the future? You don’t even greet me. Do we still have rules?”

“Your rules or mine?”

Mu Qiqi’s eyes were red and there were still teardrops on her eyelashes. However, there was a tenacity and unwillingness to admit defeat hidden in those sparkling and bright pupils.

In the end, Sheng Xiao was so angry that he laughed. “I brought this upon myself. I asked for it.”

Mu Qiqi was satisfied and crawled out of the man’s arms. However, Sheng Xiao did not let her. Mu Qiqi suddenly thought of last night. In order to prevent her from getting involved in Third Brother’s affairs, this man had actually seduced her.

“Last night, at the hotel in the mountains, Xiao Xiao, there’s something you didn’t do... Do I need to take medicine?”

“No need. Fifth Aunt knows how to help you.” Sheng Xiao’s face darkened. Last night had been an emergency, but he had calculated that Mu Qiqi’s chances of getting pregnant in the past few days were very low. “You’re not allowed to eat such nonsense behind my back.”

“If you knew, why would you tempt me?” Mu Qiqi was unconvinced.

“I didn’t want you to drink too much alcohol. It’ll make your stomach uncomfortable.” Sheng Xiao leaned against the bed and explained, “It turns out that only that method can make you sleep like a log.”

Mu Qiqi’s face turned red and her anger subsided. “Thank you for not knocking me out directly.”

The young couple had a fight on the bed and it was quite late into the night when they finally left the Shen family holding hands.

When Old Master Shen saw this, he immediately shook his head helplessly. “That lass only has so much on her mind now. In the future, if she’s a little more ambitious, who will be able to control her?”

“Father, is there something you need me for?” Shen Jianchuan did not bother to worry about his daughter’s worries. Eighth Brother Sheng had plenty of ways. Xiao Qi, that girl, should accept this for the rest of her life.

“You and Second Brother, come to my study.” Old Master Shen told his two sons about the news that Sheng Xiao had brought today.

“Second Brother, do you know what you’re doing?”

The second uncle of the Shen family shook his head. “Father, it’s still a little way before the change in the leadership, so the people are behind me and aren’t too brazen just yet.”

“Not brazen?” Old Master Shen sighed. “The Shen family is feeling peace now because the target is currently the Sheng family and they see Eighth Brother Sheng as a thorn on their side. If it wasn’t for his brain, he wouldn’t have connected all these things together. Think about it, the Shen family and Zhongteng are relying on each other, and now Eighth Brother Sheng is a target for those people.”

“Dad... I suddenly thought of something. Do you still remember that incident twenty-five years ago?” Shen Jianchuan suddenly asked Old Master Shen.

When Old Master Shen heard that, his expression changed.

“I hope it has nothing to do with that family.” After saying that, Old Master Shen reminded the two of them, “Both of you, calm down now. Pay more attention to the Sheng family. It’s your daughter and son-in-law. Put in more effort to protect them and don’t let the Sheng family suffer for us.”

“I got it, Dad.”

“Second Brother, you also have to pay more attention. If you notice any suspicious candidates, tell your big brother and Eighth Brother Sheng. These people will do anything for the sake of power.”

“I understand.” Second Uncle Shen nodded, his expression grave.

“It looks like Jianchuan will be in turmoil in the next few years.”

..

Late at night, Changrong Electronics.

Sheng Kai received a phone call from Jin Bo. “Xiao Kai, Shen Yu surrendered himself at the police station. As I was the one who raised him, I can’t bear to part with him. If you’re free, go visit him on my behalf. It’s really not convenient for me to do so.”

“I’ll go first thing tomorrow morning,” Sheng Kai replied respectfully to Jin Bo.

“Good. Tell him to properly reform in prison. After he gets out, I will treat him with the same respect as before.”

Him getting out? Once Shen Yu went in, he wouldn’t be out for another seven years...

But they were acquaintances after all. Sheng Kai agreed to visit Shen Yu the next day.

After that, Jin Bo called Cheng Bin. “Tomorrow, Sheng Kai will visit Shen Yu in the detention center. Give Sheng Kai a cigarette for me. Count it as my friendship for supporting him all these years.”

Cheng Bin had done this before, so Jin Bo’s words meant that he wanted to get rid of Shen Yu.

Back then, when Sheng Kai found Cheng Bin to form an alliance, the two of them used each other. However, Jin Bo secretly communicated with Cheng Bin. He worked for Jin Bo.

“I’m just afraid that Sheng Kai will be suspicious.”

“He won’t. After the accident, you just have to push the blame onto Sheng Kai. The whole reason for his existence was to be a scapegoat. It’s just that this scapegoat was used in a place that wasn’t worth it.” Jin Bo sighed on the phone. “Unfortunately, the Sheng family won’t be able to find another person who can be easily controlled by me.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Jin. I’ll complete the mission.”

“And when you do, I’ll fulfill your wish and give you the chance to get rid of Tang Yan,” Jin Bo promised over the phone. “Of course, if you can get rid of Tang Yan, then I’ll also believe that you can get rid of Sheng Xiao. This person is too much of an eyesore. I don’t know what exactly Shen Yu said to him when he saw him...”

“Did he share about... his background?”
