Soon, they entered the house.

  He Yanzhi took a deep breath. It was impossible to say that he was not nervous. After all, the Sheng family was not an ordinary family.

  This was his first time visiting. He could not panic and disappoint Xiao Wan’s family.

  Therefore, even if he had to bite the bullet, he had to restrain the panic in his heart.

  “Please come in.”


  At this moment, Master Xiao was at home. He had showered and was dressed in a set of home attire that wrapped around his muscular body, making it impossible to tell his age at all.

  While on a video call in the living room, Master Sheng noticed Mama Sheng leading some people in. He got interested and told Xu Che to continue later.

  “Dad……” Little Qi held He Yanzhi’s hand and nervously walked up to Sheng Xiao as she greeted him timidly.

  “Uncle.” He Yanzhi was very calm and showed respect to Sheng Xiao.

  Mama Sheng stood at the side and carefully observed He Yanzhi. This was because her son, Sheng Xiao, gave off a rather imposing aura, a strong sense of oppression. Ordinary people would naturally be afraid and might retreat when they saw him, but this kid in front of her did not seem to be afraid at all.

  Where did he come from?

  “Have you eaten?” Sheng Xiao put down the computer and asked the two of them. His tone was calm as if he was not surprised at all.

  “Yes!” Little Qi quickly replied. “He helped me with my homework. As a thank you gift, I had dinner with him.”


  “You don’t have to be so formal in front of me. I won’t ask you to do anything.” Master Xiao looked like a reasonable and loving father. He could even be considered gentle and easy-going. However, only He Yanzhi knew that Master Xiao still had the latter half of the sentence hidden in his heart.

  That was, as long as he made a mistake and did not cherish the opportunity to be with Little Qi, or if Little Qi was hurt in any way, Master Xiao would keep him accountable.

  “Old Eight, what’s going on?” Mama Sheng finally could not stand it anymore and sat on the sofa and asked. This was because she saw that these two people did not look like they were meeting for the first time.

  “You two go up and play.” Sheng Xiao had Little Qi show He Yanzhi around with the intention of driving them away so that they would not be embarrassed.

  “Come, let’s go to my room……” Little Qi could not wait. After saying that, she hurried upstairs while still holding He Yanzhi’s hand.

  “Eighth Brother, this child…… is her classmate? What’s his background? Why do you allow them to be together? She’s only seventeen……”


  “I know what to do,” Master Xiao answered Mama Sheng seriously. “You don’t trust my judgment?”


  “So, you know He Yanzhi well?” Mama Sheng’s expression softened a little.

  “Let your granddaughter worry about him for five years. If I don’t let her, she will do even more outrageous things in the future.”


  “Then what does his family do?” Mama Sheng continued to interrogate him, afraid that Little Qi would get corrupted by the boy.

  Sheng Xiao did not hide anything and told Mama Sheng everything about He Yanzhi’s family background.

  After Mama Sheng heard this, she sympathized with He Yanzhi, but also felt that he was dangerous.

  “He’s so young, yet he joined the underworld. Do you really feel at ease?”


  “We’ll see, won’t we?” Sheng Xiao still acted like it wasn’t a big deal because he knew very well that if Little Qi did not really like He Yanzhi, the two of them would not get along for long and they would separate on their own.

  Life and relationships were things that people needed to feel and experience for themselves.

  Other people, even parents, did not have the right to interfere.

  “At first, I thought that when your daughter reaches the age of falling in love, you would definitely strongly object and stop it. That once you found out that there was such a daring boy, you would definitely make him disappear from the face of the Earth.”
