After Sheng Bowen returned home, he didn’t mention a word to the old man. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to give him a warning, he was worried that he would let his imagination run wild.

  During dinner, he would test the old man a little. Asking, for example, if Second Brother came to celebrate his birthday, would he welcome him.

  After the old man heard this question, he looked at Sheng Bowen with a strange expression. “The Sheng family hasn’t had such a person for a long time. Why are you still mentioning him? No matter where he is now, it has nothing to do with the Sheng family.”


  “I thought you were going to regret chasing him out.”


  “I’ve done so many things that involved my children and grandchildren. The thing I don’t regret the most is chasing Sheng Kai out of this family. Don’t ever mention this name in front of me again,” the old man said as he pointed at Sheng Bowen with his chopsticks.

  But it was…… not going to be easy.

  Sheng Bowen didn’t say much. He would only completely let go of his worry when he delivered supper to Ren Yufei late that night.

  “If Grandfather knew that Sheng Kai wanted to kill the Sheng family this time, how sad would he be?”


  Ren Yufei saw the melancholic look on his face and sat down beside him to comfort him. “The current situation is much better than we expected. Think about it. If that thing hadn’t been discovered……”


  The consequences were unimaginable.

  Sheng Bowen felt a lingering fear when he thought of this. “It seems that I really need to learn more from Eighth Brother. Otherwise, I won’t be able to be with you if I’m really in prison.”


  “What a slick person you’ve grown into.” Ren Yufei didn’t want to bother with him and got up from his side. However, Sheng Bowen held her wrist.

  Ren Yufei’s center of gravity was unstable as she ended up sitting on Sheng Bowen’s lap. These days, the two of them had gotten used to such intimacy. Ren Yufei knew what sitting on his lap meant.

  It was an irresistible kiss. And tonight, Sheng Bowen could not help but put his hand into the placket of Ren Yufei’s clothes.

  It was not until she struggled a little that Sheng Bowen reacted. “I’m sorry, I overdid it……”


  Ren Yufei’s face was flushed red all the way to her ears. “If you really feel sorry, go home quickly.”


  “Are you willing to let us lose such a beautiful and sweet time?” Sheng Bowen asked as he hugged Ren Yufei again.

  Of course not, Ren Yufei thought to herself.

  Every minute and every second that she spent with Sheng Bowen now something that she had not dared to hope for in the past.

  “Do you know? I used to envy Qiqi because she dared to say and do anything. She lived a free and unrestrained life. I know this has nothing to do with her identity. Even if she was just an ordinary person, I believe that she could live her life to the fullest.

  “Therefore, I also hope that I can have her courage and stand with you bravely.”


  “Eighth Brother is a person no one could reach, and yet Qiqi could bring down back to the ground. I’m just an ordinary man, and I also yearn for sincere feelings.” After saying this, Sheng Bowen carried Ren Yufei and walked to her bedroom.

  “You want to……”


  “After sitting and kissing for so long, I want to kiss you while lying down.” While saying this, Sheng Bowen had already placed Ren Yufei on the soft bed. However, his kiss did not contain any lust, only seriousness and pity.

  Why did Eighth Brother insist on having Mu Qiqi?

  He did not understand it in the past, but now, he understood that some people were what you wanted. No one could replace them……

  These three nights should be considered the calm before the storm, right?

  And one of the nights was also the day Feng Shanshan and Tang Yan moved into their new house. The two of them did not have much, especially Feng Shanshan. After all, she did not stay in many places for long.

  After the two of them put their luggage away, they sat on the sofa and enjoyed this moment of peace.

  Feng Shanshan looked at the man in the dark and could not help but laugh. “Are we considered to be part of the upper class? To think that we are so close to the mayor and Mu Qiqi.”


  “You like the upper class life?”


  “That was in the past. Now, you are my life.” After saying that, Feng Shanshan pounced on Tang Yan. The two of them were about to cause an accident on the sofa when the doorbell rang.

  Feng Shanshan was a little helpless. “If I had known, I wouldn’t have informed Mu Qiqi. What an ill-timed arrival.”


  “I’ll take a shower. You guys talk.” After saying that, Tang Yan got up and went to the bedroom.

  Feng Shanshan hopped off the sofa to open the door. She saw Mu Qiqi holding a bottle of red wine. It could be considered as congratulations for the two of them moving into a new house.

  “How stingy……”


  “Do you know how much this bottle of wine is worth? I took it out from the wine cellar at home……” Mu Qiqi quickly replied. “Want a drink?”


  “It’s annoying how much I want to drink with you. Not fun.”


  “Now that I only have class and no longer go to the forensics laboratory, the time that the two of us meet has been greatly reduced. If you don’t want to drink with me, then I’ll just go back.”


  “Come in.”


  The two women didn’t let the man accompany them. They wrapped themselves in blankets and sat in the courtyard each with a glass of wine in hand.

  “What do you plan to do now? Give up on being a forensic doctor?”


  Feng Shanshan curled up in the chair and smiled. “Tang Yan has already contacted some teachers. I’m going to self-study.”


  “He treats you pretty well. However, when I first came in, I saw that your ears and neck were all red. And now the hickeys are appearing. The two of you…… were just……”


  Mu Qiqi’s eyes wandered over Feng Shanshan’s body. “Did I disturb you?”


  “You just realized?” Feng Shanshan rolled her eyes.

  At the mention of this, Mu Qiqi couldn’t help but start gossiping. “Be honest, how’s Captain Tang’s skills?”


  “He’s definitely not worse than your President Sheng.” Feng Shanshan raised her eyebrows at Mu Qiqi.

  “You want to compare yourself to me over something like this?”


  “Of course. Enemies are forever.” After Feng Shanshan said that, she started to laugh.

  Mu Qiqi also laughed. The two women in the courtyard had finished a whole bottle of Sheng Xiao’s Lafite.

  Mu Qiqi could not drink in the first place. Now that she was in the courtyard with her friend, she had completely lost control.

  Tang Yan had no choice but to call Sheng Xiao. “CEO Sheng, I might have to trouble you to bring your woman back.”


  It was only a five minutes’ walk from the Banyan Courtyard.

  Sheng Xiao, who had just showered, was wearing a black sweater and a brown jacket. He looked very much like a gentleman from abroad.

  But his expression……

  When he saw Mu Qiqi lying on the table in Tang Yan’s house, his eyes were about to shoot daggers. He immediately picked up the little one and strode out of Tang Yan’s house.

  Mu Qiqi woke up halfway. When she saw Sheng Xiao, she poked him on the side of his face. “Xiao Xiao…… Let me tell you a secret.”
