“Miss Yu, you’re being too modest. You still look sober to me, so why aren’t you drinking anymore? Are you trying to make me look bad?” The other client was discontent that his colleague was hoarding the spotlight. He put his arm around Yu Keyao’s shoulders. Leaning closer, he took a sniff at her neck. “There’s not a whiff of alcohol on you, Miss Yu. You smell as sweet as ever.”

Yu Keyao was on the verge of tears. She used to be the noble daughter of the Yu family. Out of all the men from all the different families, she only liked Qi Chengzhi and never batted an eye at the rest. Now two brainless pigs cornered her, breathing their alcoholic breaths onto her face.

After experiencing Qi Chengzhi’s chivalry and grandeur, how could she withstand these two swine?

“I’m sorry but I really can’t drink anymore.” Yu Keyao felt backed into a corner. She had no choice but to escape by force.

Unsurprisingly, the two men would not let her go. They noticed her colleagues’ attitude toward her in the dinner—if they were to do anything to Yu Keyao, no one would stand up for her.

Besides, for all they knew, Yu Keyao could just be acting to spice things up a little.

They knew many women who appeared innocent on the outside, but in reality, were lustful and dissolute.

“What’s going on?” a soft and elegant voice abruptly uttered.

Only then did they realize another person was standing in front of them.

“Director Mu,” Yu Keyao called out as if he was her knight in shining armor.

The two men were dumbstricken. They sobered up instantly and quickly let go of Ye Keyao. Courteously, they greeted, “Director Mu.”

Mu Huaisheng nodded at them composedly. “I heard that you were entertaining some clients tonight, so I decided to come and check up on you since I was passing by. Is it over?”

Yu Keyao nodded hastily. Then, Mu Huaisheng offered, “I’ll send you home.”

Since it was Mu Huaisheng, the two clients could not protest.

Once Yu Keyao got into Mu Huaisheng’s car, she could finally feel at ease. “Director Mu, you can just drop me off at the subway station.”

“I said I’ll send you home.” Mu Huaisheng glanced at her coolly as he drove past the subway station without stopping.

“Thank you for what you did just now,” Yu Keyao mumbled.

“Don’t mention it. I can’t just stand by and watch when something like that happens,” Mu Huaisheng replied.

Yu Keyao kept quiet.

“Where do you stay?” Mu Huaisheng asked, breaking the silence.

Only then did Yu Keyao realize she had not told him her address and gave it to him.

To get to work more conveniently, Yu Keyao had moved out. After all, the mansion already had a ‘for sale’ sign hung up. Her family had long been without a housekeeper’s services. When she lived at home, she needed to do the job of a housekeeper and make Yu Zidong’s meals.

Therefore, she took the chance and rented a small apartment near the company. This way, she did not have to stay at home and serve others.

Mu Huaisheng followed her to the front of her home. She had her head down for a long time, looking for her keys. Finally, she opened the door yet did not go in. Standing in front of the door, she bowed her head and said, “Thank you, Director Mu. You… be careful on the road.”

Mu Huaisheng noticed something off in her tone so he did not leave in a hurry. Frowning, he queried, “Are you okay?”

Yu Keyao dropped her head even lower. She shook her head violently and headed into the house. However, she tripped on the door frame and fell inward.

Seeing this, Mu Huaisheng quickly rushed to her aid. He wrapped his arm around her waist, unavoidably pulling her into his embrace.

Once Yu Keyao regained her balance, she slowly raised her head. Mu Huaisheng felt the soft and fragrant body in his arms trembling uncontrollably. He looked down and saw that her eyes were red with two streams of tears flowing down her cheeks. Her soft lips were plump and glowing bright red.

The reason she had her head down the entire time was that she was crying. That night, she was wronged by her colleagues, and to top it off, she almost became a victim of an unspeakable deed.

Mu Huaisheng thought about what would have happened if he had not passed by coincidently. Yu Keyao might not have been able to escape. If so, anyone could have guessed how her night would end.

Trembling, Yu Keyao clutched onto his shirt. She looked helpless and pitiful.

Suddenly, she stood on tiptoes and landed a kiss on his lips shyly.

Mu Huaisheng’s bewilderment was evident in his expression. He squinted at her.

Yu Keyao’s tear-filled eyes twitched. She whimpered, “Director Mu, due to your status and mine, I know you’re out of my league. I’ve never thought of overstepping my boundaries either but what happened tonight terrified me. It’s still my first time. I’ve never done it before. What if something like that happens again? I know I can’t be lucky enough to have someone to save me again the next time it happens. I don’t want to lose my first time in circumstances like that. I don’t want people like them to steal it from me. Rather, I’d like to take control and make my own decision before anything happens. I’d like to share my first time with someone I like and leave a beautiful memory. Can you… help me? Please… I’m begging you…”

Yu Keyao was bawling her eyes out. Her helpless yet alluring face excited the thing in his pants.

“You won’t regret it?” Mu Huaisheng’s voice turned slightly hoarse.

Yu Keyao nodded silently. She stood on her toes again and kissed him on the lips.

Mu Huaisheng tightened his grip around her waist. This time, he was the one who kissed her.

Cheng Zhaohui surgery was very successful. His recovery was also remarkable. Moreover, the doctors did not observe any symptoms after his surgery, so he would be discharged on Friday.

Cheng Dongge planned to keep Cheng Zhaohui at the hospital for a few more days to be observed and for him to have proper rest. In spite of that, Cheng Zhaohui could not take being cooped up in there any longer.

Chutian Hospital was an exceptional hospital and the wards were very comfortable. However, every patient here were big-shots. They had their own social circle, so they would always run into people they know in the hospital and start a conversation.

As for Cheng Zhaohui, he was not part of that social circle. Furthermore, he was not even from that city. Thus, he did not know a single person. He was too shy to simply walk up to someone and start talking, so he spent his days lying in his room. Being confined like that, Cheng Zhaohui was determined to get discharged no matter what.

On Friday night, Cheng Dongge and Qi Chengyue came to the hospital and took Cheng Zhaohui and Sun Shaoyun to Cheng Dongge’s house.

On the road, Sun Shaoyun said from the backseat, “Chengyue, after discussing with Dongge’s father, we’ve decided that once he gets discharged, we’ll go visit the Qi family personally. This isn’t only to thank you all for the tremendous help you provided, but we’d also like to talk about you and Dongge. I’d like us both families to sit down and get to know each other over a meal. When we were in the hospital ward, I didn’t think it was a suitable setting. When you get home, can you ask when we can visit?”

Qi Chengyue nodded. She called Grandmother Qi instantly and notified her.

“Oh, be my guest! Coincidentally, we have a family gathering tomorrow—do ask Dongge’s parents to join us. Originally, I was planning to visit them after Dongge’s father gets discharged and have a meal together. Since his mother brought it up, they can just come over tomorrow,” Grandmother Qi suggested. “Ask them if they can make it tomorrow.”

“Hold on.” Qi Chengyue moved the phone away and reiterated Grandmother Qi’s words in a low voice.

Sun Shaoyun agreed immediately. Qi Chengyue then informed Grandmother Qi.

Delighted, Grandmother Qi hung up and ordered Aunt Liu to prepare more food tomorrow.

“When your father’s condition becomes stable, say next week or latest by the week following that, we’ll return to Li City,” Sun Shaoyun stated.

“What’s the rush? It’s not every day that you get to come here. Why don’t you stay here a little longer? Not only can you walk around and experience the city, but you’re also giving Dad a chance to rest longer,” Cheng Dongge pointed out, looking at his parents through the rear-view mirror.

“Ah, but I miss home. B City is huge and bustling—it’s filled with cars and high rises, and that’s making me feel stressed. I think I’ll be able to relax more when we return to the serene life in Li City,” Cheng Zhaohui stated laughingly. “Besides, the two of us staying with you will only be a hindrance. It’d be harder for you to talk to Chengyue or go on a date with her.”

“Uncle, it’s alright.” Qi Chengyue blushed. Cheng Zhaohui’s words were rather euphemistic.

“Hehe,” Cheng Zhaohui chuckled. “You don’t have to ask us to stay. After all, it’s not like you’re kicking us out, so don’t feel responsible for it. We just prefer to go home, where we’re surrounded by friends and acquaintances that we can talk to.”

On Saturday morning, Song Yu woke up early to prepare for the day. This was a big step for Qi Chengyue and Cheng Dongge. It was of great importance to everyone in the Qi family.

Song Yu had planned to go for a check-up today, but she discussed it with Qi Chengzhi and they decided to refrain from stealing Qi Chengyue and Cheng Dongge’s spotlight. She opted to go tomorrow instead.

The sound of Song Yu washing up and changing awakened Qi Chengzhi. In a daze, he lied on the bed, refusing to get up.

Qi Chengzhi was lying on his back but he then turned and lied on his side, his hand supporting his head and watched Song Yu get ready.

“Finally awake?” Song Yu heard him shifting around and walked toward him.

Qi Chengzhi reached out his long arms and grabbed her by the waist. He pulled her closer and pressed his face against her soft tummy, which was slightly protruding. He kissed her through her clothes and guided her to sit on the bed.

He made her sit at the head of the bed and rested his head on her thighs. He buried his face against her lower abdomen and took a long sniff.

Song Yu’s long and slender fingers brushed through his hair tenderly. He turned so that he was lying on his back and looking up at her face. “No matter what, we’ll go to the hospital for the check-up tomorrow. No more delays.”

Smiling, Song Yu nodded. “I never noticed that things were coming up one after the other, but now that we have our own things to do, it feels like everything is happening at once.”

Qi Chengzhi held her hand which was combing through his hair and pulled it to his lips. His long and bony fingers gently grabbed her fingers one by one as he kissed each of her fingertips.

His kissing made Song Yu feel ticklish. She could not help but giggle. “Stop messing around and get up.”

Qi Chengzhi landed another two kisses and turned to bury his face against her lower abdomen again. After taking a long and intense sniff, he finally got up.

…

…

Once they both got ready, Qi Chengzhi looked through the wine rack at home and picked out a few bottles of good wine to bring to the old mansion. Then, he and Song Yu set out.

One of the neighboring houses there was holding a wedding ceremony. A few spots near the old mansion was reserved for the wedding car. Therefore, Qi Chengzhi could only park at a spot further from the old mansion. He opened the trunk and took out the wine. With one hand holding the bottles while the other held Song Yu’s hand, the two of them strolled toward the old mansion.

“Aiyah, you’re back! Oh, look how lovey-dovey you two are!” It was Aunt Ge who lived nearby. She met Grandmother Qi square dancing. That time Grandmother Qi brought Song Yu out to show her off and introduced her to her square dancing friends, Aunt Ge was also there. That was how she knew Song Yu.

Song Yu smiled and greeted, “Aunt Ge, your body is still so strong.”

“Ah, you still remember me! Aiyah, when Grandmother Qi brought you there, there were so many people, so I didn’t expect you to remember me!” Aunt Ge pointed out gleefully. “Ah, Xiao Song, when are you two planning on having a child? Any news about it?”

Song Yu’s face flushed red. She did not know how to reply so Qi Chengzhi said coolly, “We’re letting things happen naturally.”

“Oh, there’s no rush! I’m not trying to press you two on it! I’m getting old now, so there’s a lot on my mind. I’m just asking whatever comes to mind.”

Aunt Ge looked at Song Yu and Qi Chengzhi up and down and concluded sincerely, “A child made by you two will definitely look stunning.”

Song Yu noticed that Qi Chengzhi suddenly straightened his back out and adjusted his tie proudly. Even though he did not utter a word, his delight was evident on his face.

“Lao Sun’s son is getting married today. I have to attend the ceremony. You two should head back. This morning, I ran into Grandmother Qi during her morning exercise. She told me that her granddaughter is bringing her a grandson-in-law. She said that the parents from both families will be meeting up today.” Aunt Ge was grinning from ear to ear. “Ever since all you little ones got married one by one and found your matches, Grandmother Qi had been overjoyed. She was bragging about you all everywhere. She even stopped attending square dances as frequently.”

Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu smiled. Aunt Ge continued, “That’s right, did—”

Before she could ask, she saw a little plump boy running toward them behind Song Yu.

“Uncle, Auntie.” Qi Youxuan ran to them, holding a giant red apple in his hands.

The family had resolved to put him on a diet. Every time Qi Youxuan wanted snacks, they would push fruits to him instead. Luckily, Qi Youxuan did not mind—as long as he had something to chew on.

When he was at his kindergarten, he would secretly buy some snacks from the little store in his kindergarten and have his own secret snack-time. The life of this little child was pretty interesting too.

“Hello, Grandmother Ge,” Qi Youxuan greeted politely as he stood beside Song Yu.

“Oh, what a good boy. I see you’ve grown even more handsome now,” Aunt Ge praised.

“…” Hearing that, Qi Chengzhi started to doubt Aunt Ge’s praises about him and Song Yu’s child.

At that time, Qi Youxuan mouth was packed with apple. His stuffed cheeks made his face look even rounder. It was impossible to see his features.

How could Aunt Ge tell if Qi Youxuan was handsome or not?

Qi Youxuan’s face at that moment barely scraped past the boundaries of ‘ugly’.

Qi Youxuan’s little cheeks were stuffed with apple. After Aunt Ge praised him, his little round face turned red, making him look almost identical to the giant apple in his hands.

Bashful, the little boy twisted his pudgy stomach around. There was still some apple left in his mouth. When he talked, some apple juice and flakes sprayed out of his mouth.

“Grandmother Ge, you’re also looking prettier than before,” Qi Youxuan praised shyly, drawing circles with his waist.

Aunt Ge was humored by the adorable little boy. He was merely saying whatever he pleased as children do. Otherwise, who would call an old lady like her ‘pretty’?

Just then, Qi Chenglin sauntered over. His long legs were no shorter than Qi Chengzhi’s. When he stood a step forward, he gave off an aura of strength and dependability.

Aunt Ge could not help but exclaim. The Qi family carried such marvelous genes that every member of the family was exceptionally attractive. To top it all off, not only was Qi Chengzhi handsome, but the woman he brought into the family was also gorgeous.

Although Aunt Ge did not know who was Qi Youxuan’s mother was, seeing Qi Youxuan’s dashing features, his mother must be beautiful too.

Aunt Ge reminisced about the days when Qi Chengzhi and Qi Chenglin were still children and stayed at their grandparents’. The two of them were such rascals.

Qi Chengzhi was two years older than Qi Chenglin. When they were in kindergarten, one of them would lift girls’ skirts while the other stuffed insects under the skirt.

A year later, Qi Chengzhi went to elementary school while Qi Chenglin was still in kindergarten. Once, Qi Chenglin was bullied by one of his classmates. After school, Qi Chengzhi picked up a brick and brought Qi Chenglin to the bully’s house. He dumped the brick into Qi Chenglin’s hand and ordered, “You’re the one he bullied so take your own revenge. Now smash it!”

Qi Chenglin let out a battle cry and flung the brick with his little arms and shattered the house’s window. When the boy’s parents confronted him, Qi Chenglin cried loudly and screamed that they were bullying children. That attracted the attention of everyone passing by, humiliating the boy’s parents. They were infuriated and embarrassed yet had no choice but to send the two boys back to the old mansion. However, the two boys could not run from Grandfather Qi’s rod of fury. Nevertheless, even if Grandfather Qi hit them three times a day, they were still as mischievous as ever.

Now that they have grown up, they gave off an air of strength and reliability. Women on the streets would not even turn their gaze away from them for a second. Aunt Ge sighed at the fact that time passed by so quickly.

“Aunt Ge,” Qi Chenglin greeted coolly as he brushed Qi Youxuan’s hair with his hand.

“Youxuan is six this year, right?” Aunt Ge smiled nostalgically. She moved her gaze from QI Youxuan to Qi Chenglin.

“In about two more months, he’ll be attending elementary school,” Qi Chenglin answered smilingly.

“Sigh… Time sure flies. It felt like only yesterday Youxuan was only this big.” Aunt Ge showed the size of a baby with her hands. “In the blink of an eye, he’s already graduating from kindergarten and moving on to elementary school.”

“I know. It’s been so many years, yet my dad still hasn’t found a wife,” Qi Youxuan butted in while chewing on his apple loudly.

“…” Qi Chengzhi was speechless.

Aunt Ge squinted. The one thing people her age loved to do was setting people up on dates. “Chenglin hasn’t found a suitable match? Would you like me to introduce a few to you?”

Before Qi Chenglin could answer, Qi Youxuan jumped in again. “Grandmother Ge, my dad is trying his best to win a special woman’s heart.”

“Really?” What does she look like? Which family’s princess is this lucky lady?” Aunt Ge’s eyes were sparkling with enthusiasm.

Qi Chenglin chuckled and said, “I’m still in the process. I’ll definitely bring her home as soon as possible.”

“Hehehe, that’s good to hear. Anyway, I’ll be heading to Lao Sun’s house now.” Aunt Ge announced, beaming with joy.

Qi Chengzhi said, “Goodbye and take care.”

Aunt Ge smiled and waved at them. Once she left, Qi Chenglin shot a cold glance at Qi Youxuan who was still biting into his apple.

The four of them strolled toward the old mansion together. Song Yu could not hold back her curiosity. She glimpsed at Qi Chenglin several times, then finally asked, “You found your match?”

“…” Qi Chenglin glared at Qi Youxuan silently. His intense glare made Qi Youxuan swallow the words he was going to say. Qi Chenglin glanced back at Song Yu and replied, “No.”

“But there’s a suitable match you’re pursuing?” Song Yu did not forget Qi Youxuan’s words just now.

“That, I have.” QI Chenglin nodded. He did not try to hide it.

“Who?” Song Yu questioned immediately. She was both curious and excited.
