Mu Qiqi was shocked. She was holding her phone, but she did not know how to reply to the message for now. After quite some time, she gathered her courage and replied to Sheng Xiao.
"Sure."
If it was not Sheng Xiao who told her she should return to her real family, she would not want to get involved with a rich family again.
"Jing Yun will come and fetch you tonight. Don't be nervous, okay?" replied Sheng Xiao.
"I am not," replied Sheng Xiao.
You would feel nervous when you have expectations of someone. However, it was obvious that she had no expectation of the Shen family.
"I will rush over after I get my job done."
"Okay."
Mu Qiqi sent a one-word reply. But she was still reluctant to return to the Shen family. Because once the Shen family knew about her existence and asked her to move in with them, wouldn't it mean that she would lose her chance to meet Sheng Xiao?
Of course, when she promised to meet Grandpa Mu, it meant that she believed that Sheng Xiao would take care of this matter for her. She was only curious about how he would solve the problem.
When Su Zipei saw her being out of sort, she quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Mu Qiqi replied, "Xiaoxiao told me that Grandpa Shen wants to meet me."
"If Grandpa Shen wants to see you, you can just go. Qiqi, you are a member of the Shen family, this is a fact," said Su Zipei. She had the same thought as Sheng Xiao. Although Mu Qiqi looked strong as if she did not need a family after Mama Mu died, Grandpa Mu was in fact her family. And fortunately, she still had a father.
"I know." Mu Qiqi nodded and returned to her room.
"Is something bothering her?" Su Zipei was worried seeing Mu Qiqi being so down.
Lu Wenhua knew what was bothering Mu Qiqi. So, he explained, "If Qiqi returns to the Shen family, her relationship with Sheng Xiao would change. How can she not worry about that?"
"She does not have to worry at all. Sheng Xiao will definitely make sure things will not change when he makes such an arrangement."
Su Zipei trusted Sheng Xiao.
In the evening, Mu Qiqi changed into an aqua blue dress and got into Jing Yun's car.
This seemed to be the first time Mu Qiqi was alone with Jing Yun in the same space. Mu Qiqi knew it all along that Jing Yun did not really like her much. So, on the way to the hospital, they were very awkward with each other. Mu Qiqi wanted to find a topic to talk about, but she did not think Jing Yun might want to talk to her.
"Miss Qiqi, I know what you are thinking about. But since I choose to be on the young master's side, I will help you wholeheartedly.
"
"He likes you and he chooses you. He doesn't even mind going against the whole world. So, I will not let him fight alone. I hope that you will not let him fight alone as well. This is the happiness of the two of you."
"What do you mean?" Mu Qiqi did not quite understand him.
"You know that it is very difficult to marry into the Sheng family. Young Master Sheng does not mind you having no background and will grant you any wish, but since you are a Shen, you should act like one and stand firm in the Shen family. Then, when your relationship with him is exposed, the Sheng family will not ridicule and embarrass him. Do you understand?"
"Although, I don't know how he will overcome this obstacle with this uncle-niece relationship of yours in the family."
"I understand what you mean," replied Mu Qiqi seriously. "I will do my best to stand firm in the Shen family. I can sacrifice anything to be with Xiaoxiao."
"Remember what you said today."
