"Young Master, are you planning to tell Miss Qiqi about this now?" Jing Yun turned around and asked Sheng Xiao when he had escorted the experts out of the house.
"I have other arrangements there. But, what is important now is how to reveal the news to Mu Tangxue and make it seem like an unintentional act." Sheng Xiao looked at Jing Yun sternly. "If we don't have any other way, we might need Aunt Su's help."
"How about the Shen family?"
"You can clock out now." Sheng Xiao did not brief Jing Yun much regarding his plan. It was because he needed to discuss with Su Zipei first before taking the next step.
By the way, he was rather sad to see Mu Qiqi faced with yet another great challenge given that she had just taken revenge for her mother. Although he was grieved, he still needed to make earlier preparations. Since she belonged to the Shen family, she should return to them so as to have their support and love.
Sheng Xiao went straight to the small villa after work. He did not even notice Mama Sheng who had called after him several times behind him.
Mama Sheng was curious why Sheng Xiao was meeting different kinds of peculiar people recently. She wanted to inquire about it but he ran off the minute he left work.
"Jing Yun, what has your young master been busy with recently? Why cannot I meet him every time I come to Huang Yao?"
"Madam, surely the young master is busy with Huang Yao's business," Jing Yun replied.
"Has it got nothing to do with women?"
Jing Yun shook his head.
"Let's forget about it. It's useless even if I ask you. You must tell me if you see him with any woman."
"Sure, Madam."
Jing Yun covered up for Sheng Xiao. It was because he knew that the people from Sheng family would have a great shock if they knew of the fact that Sheng Xiao had been living together with a eighteen-year-old girl in the same house now.
However, he was unsure of how Sheng Xiao would resolve that issue when the time came. He felt that it would be rather a difficult task. But, what else could he do since his young master did not even hesitate for a single second?
It might be just like what Sheng Xiao said. People should never bow down to their destinies.

It was night. Sheng Xiao reached the small villa. Mu Qiqi rushed to greet him and held his warm hand. "Today, my aunt prepared a great feast. All of them are your favorite..."
"How come she knows of my favorite food so soon?" Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows.
"Even I'm aware of your favorite. For sure my aunt knows about it too." Mu Qiqi smiled at him. "Xiaoxiao, you don't know how dangerous today was. That bastard nearly escaped from being fired.
"
Sheng Xiao sat down in front of the dining table. Then, he looked at Su Zipei. "I want to talk to Aunt Su after dinner..."
"Is it something I'm not allowed to know again?" Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao calmly. "Alright. I'll watch the TV in the living room quietly."
Sheng Xiao pinched her cheek. In fact, both Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi knew very well that it was related to Mu Qiqi if he needed to discuss it with Su Zipei.
"But, I hope that you won't treat me as a kid anymore from now on. I'm eighteen years old now."
"For me, you'll always be a kid." Su Zipei could not help but laugh.
After dinner, they went to the study while Mu Qiqi stayed in the living room alone.
