  “Then why are you being so protective of me?”


  Speaking of this, Grandpa Shen looked at Mu Qiqi and thought of Shen Jianchuan. “I trust you because of your perseverance. After going through so many hardships, you can still be true to yourself. It is rare for a person to have this attitude toward life. You and your father are good people. The Shen family is your home. You still have to come here when it is necessary. They will not dare to do anything to you when I am here.”


  Mu Qiqi nodded and held Grandpa Shen’s hands. “Don’t get angry. You will get sick when you get angry. Then, how can you protect me?”


  “And Grandpa, you and Father should be careful.”


  “I know what you are worrying about. You are a very thoughtful, young girl.” Grandpa Shen smiled. He felt that it was worthwhile for him to get angry for her.

  And Mu Qiqi reminded Grandpa Shen to take care of his safety because she knew that Rong Junhan was most probably the one who caused her father to get injured two times.

  Now that Grandpa Shen had made Rong Junhan suffer, she might repeat her trick again.

  Mu Qiqi did not want to take the risk.

  “You must be exhausted. Get some rest. I will leave after I see you rest.”


  “Never mind that. You can just go home. Jing Yun is still waiting for you outside. Speaking of that, Sheng Xiao is being very helpful.” Grandpa Shen patted Mu Qiqi on her shoulder and said, “I am still strong and healthy, don’t you worry.”


  Mu Qiqi’s eyes met Grandpa Shen’s and she nodded. “Well, I shall go home then.”


  Grandpa Shen blinked his eyes. His stern face was gone and now he had turned into a loving and kind old man again.

  Apart from her aunt, Grandpa Shen was the second family member to love her sincerely.

  Mu Qiqi only hoped that her grandfather could live a long life.

  Later, Mu Qiqi left the mansion. Perhaps it was because of the scolding of Grandpa Shen, the Shens did not make things hard for Mu Qiqi and let her leave although their eyes showed intense hatred.

  Mu Qiqi left the house and got into the car which was parked near the gate. By the time she got into the car, the driver was no longer Jing Yun. It was Sheng Xiao.

  “I could feel the intensity in the hall even when I am outside.”


  “Grandpa came back just at the right time, so I was not hurt.” Mu Qiqi replied.

  “Of course, he was here right after you entered the house. He stood at the door and watched the whole thing. So, I did not get the chance to do anything.” Sheng Xiao stroked Mu Qiqi’s head. “I am glad that there are more people protecting you now.”


  “Xiaoxiao…”


  “But you must feel sad for being scolded. How do you feel? Do you regret my decision of letting you go to Shen Mansion?”


  Mu Qiqi quickly shook her head. “You don’t even know how grateful I am. I had a father and a grandfather before, but I still feel I have no one. But now, I feel that I have got back what I have lost. And this time, they are sincere to me. I suddenly have the feeling that I am the happiest person in the world, especially when I have you…”


  Seeing Mu Qiqi’s eyes filled with love, Sheng Xiao touched her chin and grinned. “Your words are sweeter now.”


  “I am just worried that Father and Grandpa might be in danger.”


  “Your grandfather has gone through so many battles. Nothing can escape his eagle eyes.” Sheng Xiao said and started the car engine. Then, he drove Mu Qiqi home.

  On the way, Sheng Xiao thought of what Jing Yun told him just now. “Jing Yun found the old dean of the hospital. Unfortunately, he has passed away. His daughter was involved in the case. But she told Jing Yun that the woman who hit your father was called Tong Xue.”


  “Not Rong Junhan?”


  “I suspect it’s a fake name. But I need to find evidence to prove it. I need to check if Rong Junhan has used this name to do some other things.”


  Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao impressively. She felt that this man was a very meticulous person. He should become a detective in the police department.

  “Xiaoxiao, Jing Yun has worked very hard…”


  “Are you feeling sorry for him?”


  “Of course, I feel sorry for him because he is your personal assistant.”


  Sheng Xiao glanced at her and hummed, but he did not say anything more.

  “But when should we tell Grandpa about this? If it really is done by Rong Junhan, then we would never know her limits. She can do anything.”


  “I will let Jing Yun try to gather enough evidence before the wedding.”


  Mu Qiqi believed in Sheng Xiao. She also believed in Jing Yun.

  That night, after Rong Junhan had been slapped by Grandpa Shen, she threw a tantrum after she got home. She used to get along with the Shen family. But now, because of Mu Qiqi, everything had changed.

  Then, she thought of Mu Tangxue and went to look for her at the dance academy.

  Mu Tangxue was hidden by Rong Junhan now. She was asked by Rong Junhan to imitate Mu Qiqi to perfection. And lately, Rong Junhan had brought her to get a fake mole and a tattoo.

  To be honest, Mu Tangxue was repulsed by the idea of making herself look like Mu Qiqi.

  She was not Mu Qiqi’s shadow.

  But, for her own survival, she was forced to obey Rong Junhan. Otherwise, she would have no place to stay.

  They probably thought that the tattoo on Mu Qiqi’s earlobe was just a random pattern. But they did not know it was Sheng Xiao’s name.

  “After you are ready, I will bring you to see Shen Jianchuan. He is the first level you need to pass.”


  After all, Shen Jianchuan had just woken up. His mind would not be that clear after being asleep for so many years., would he?

  It should not be difficult to fool him.

  But the fact was, she did not know how clever Shen Jianchuan was.

  …


  The next day, Mu Qiqi talked to Qianqian over the phone in the morning. Qianqian did not wish to see Mu Qiqi being bullied. So, she was anxious about what happened at Shen Mansion.

  But after hearing the recount of the incident, she felt glad.

  “That woman named Rong has really had it this time. By the way, Qiqi, I think that Grandpa Shen is really nice to you. He has really made up for the affection of a family you were deprived of before this.”


  “How do you feel now? What are you going to do next after the last time?”


  “I have taught the slut a lesson. Now it is the scum’s turn,” replied Lu Qianqian. “No, it should be the whole Duan family. Think about it, Duan Shao’an and I have been together for so many years. Can his parents not know about all those things? But they never tried to do anything. Shouldn’t they take the blame as well? All they knew was to ask for business contracts from my parents. They merely see Shao’an as a bargaining chip.”


  “But now that the bargaining chip has lost its worth. I will see how nervous they can get! They will reap what they sow now.”


  “The Duan family will come and beg you,” said Mu Qiqi. There were only profits in the eyes of the rich families.

  “Then I shall stand up and show them my dignity. Why should I let them be the one in control?”
