The old man called Xi Mucheng, but he didn’t get through.

  His expression became a bit more serious, then he said, “It’s alright. These two will be back in a short while.”


  Naturally, Ning Shu was dissatisfied with the old man’s protection of Xi Mucheng. She said, “Dad, why are you so nice to Xi Mucheng? He doesn’t even have the blood of the Shi family.”


  The old man looked at Ning Shu. “Lina, you’re losing your cool.”


  Ning Shu: →_→


  You wouldn’t be so calm after knowing that your son was going to tumble with your granddaughter.

  “Dad, Xi Mucheng isn’t Uncle’s son. Why else would his last name not be Shi?” Ning Shu asked the old man, “Have you investigated him thoroughly?”


  “Xi Mucheng was named after his mother,” said the old man.

  Ning Shu held her forehead and couldn’t help but shake her head. “Dad, you’re really……” Old and confused.

  Ning Shu frowned. The old man was a businessman; how could he do something so stupid?

  When her uncle had embezzled all the company’s money and they had nothing, it was the old man’s idea that saved the company.

  People like the old man only become more sophisticated the more they lived, turning into old foxes.

  You’re being so nice to the son of the person who took the money from the company because you feel guilty?

  Or did the old man need Xi Mucheng for something?

  Or did he need something from this Xi Mucheng?

  It felt like things were more complicated than they looked on the surface. The old man ended up getting killed by Xi Mucheng as well, so no one knew the details.

  Ning Shu looked at the old man and finally shook her head. No matter what he had planned, Xi Mucheng must die.

  Xi Mucheng was a bloodthirsty wolf who could not be tamed. Killing him was the safest, otherwise they would be the ones to suffer.

  Ning Shu didn’t bother to think about what happened to Shi Sinan. Instead, she chatted with her business partners.

  Quite a few people inquired about Shi Sinan, presumably with the intention of forming a union with the Shi family.

  Ning Shu just laughed and said that Shi Sinan was still young and had to go to college, so they didn’t have any plans to consider this for the time being.

  If a girl like Shi Sinan married into someone else’s family, it would not form a union but a grudge. She was innocent, beautiful, unpretentious, and aloof from the matters of the mundane world. Shi Sinan would not socialize with people like a rich lady.

  Ning Shu wasn’t going to give Shi Sinan said in-laws, either. Since she liked her ‘uncle’, it was better for them to be together. They would never be apart in this life.

  Here the party was still going on, and over there, Shi Sinan was sitting in Xi Mucheng’s convertible car. The evening breeze blew comfortably on her face.

  Shi Sinan couldn’t help but raise her hand. She said with a smile on her face, “It’s better to be out here. The party was so suffocating.”


  Xi Mucheng kept looking at Shi Sinan, causing her to become a little embarrassed. She dropped her hand and said in an expectant voice, “Uncle, what birthday gift have you prepared for me?”


  Xi Mucheng’s face had an evil smile on it. His deep eyes were bright, like stars in the night sky.

  When Shi Sinan saw Xi Mucheng like this, she froze. She felt as if everything around her had disappeared, and there was only Xi Mucheng in her eyes.

  “Silly.” Xi Mucheng flexed his fingers and flicked Shi Sinan’s head.

  Shi Sinan’s face exploded red when Xi Mucheng touched her. She felt hot all over, and her heart actually hinted at sweetness.

  Xi Mucheng noticed the affection in Shi Sinan’s eyes and his lips hooked.

  He had arrived at a hotel with Shi Sinan. Shi Sinan looked confused and asked, “Uncle, what did you bring me here for?”


  Xi Mucheng actually took Shi Sinan’s hand. Shi Sinan jolted as if in shock and tried to pull back her hand, but he did not let go.

  Shi Sinan’s mind was in turmoil, and she murmured, “Uncle, U……”


  “The hotel is huge, but you won’t get lost with me holding onto you.” Xi Mucheng wore a meaningful smile.
