Fourth Sister pushed away her hand in a natural manner and smiled. “It is not you who can decide on what kind of wife Sheng Xiao needs. And it is Grandpa’s business what kind of granddaughter-in-law he needs. I know you want to help your best friend, but Seventh Sister, I will not get involved in this game. You should ask someone else for help.”

“Sister, we are family. You should just help me.”

“How about this? I will just call Sheng Xiao and ask him whether he wants to change his bride.”

Having said that, Fourth Sister took out her phone. But Seventh Sister immediately grabbed her hand.

“Sister, I am just joking. Don’t take it seriously.”

“You really don’t need it? It was you who asked me for help just now.” Fourth Sister asked Seventh Sister in return. “Don’t you say that I am not a good sister by then.”

“No, I won’t.” Seventh Sister waved her hands.

Fourth Sister turned around and left the scene. Seventh Sister snorted. “Does she really think that she can control me because she is older? I may not be able to do anything to you, but I can always do something to the little bride.”

Erm, excuse me. You can’t even touch her actually!

…

On the next day, Mu Qiqi invited Lu Qianqian to Jing Ting. She wanted to let Qianqian help her with the fitting.

Lu Qianqian exclaimed in amazement when she reached the villa. “How generous the crown prince is! Qiqi, it is very difficult to get this villa but now it has become the love nest of yours. And with the bodyguards! Isn’t the crown prince being too considerate?”

“You always like to tease me. Hurry and help me to put this on.” Mu Qiqi took out the dress from the wardrobe.

It was a ballgown. And the bell-shaped skirt was embellished with feathers. As for the bodice, it was decorated with a feather-like embroidery pattern to symbolize the wings of the angel.

Lu Qianqian was speechless…

“Hurry up and put it on. I want to see.”

Mu Qiqi put on the dress. She felt a little empty in front. She put her hands on her chest. “My boobs are not big enough…”

“You are so wrong. Crown Prince knows which part of you looks the most attractive. It’s your long neck. If you don’t show it, it will be a total waste. It is so beautiful!” Lu Qianqian gave Mu Qiqi a thumbs up. “It’s perfect.”

Mu Qiqi looked at herself in the mirror. She also felt that it was as if she had become another person.

“Crown Prince has such good taste! I think he has given you the best in the world…”

Mu Qiqi took off the dress with care and put it back into the wardrobe gently. She looked at Lu Qianqian. “I still hope that you can come to my engagement ceremony.”

“I have told you that I will not go.” Lu Qianqian smiled nonchalantly. Besides, if she really went to the ceremony, it would make things difficult for that man. “Anyway, I have my reasons. I have things and people that I want to protect. You should just let it be.”

Finally, Mu Qiqi gave in. “All right.”

For these few days, after getting back in touch with Lin Mu’an, Lu Qianqian had thought about many things. Lin Mu’an had decided to look away from his family’s objection and make friends with her, she should not make things difficult for him.

Since the outsiders had a bad impression of her, then she should keep a low profile.

After having lunch with Mu Qiqi at Jing Ting, Lu Qianqian went to the martial arts center. Lin Mu’an was already there, waiting. He looked irritated. “Where have you been for so long?”

“I went to Jing Ting to help Qiqi to try on her dress.” Lu Qianqian had changed into her sports attire and went to the sandbag.

“You won’t go for her engagement ceremony?” Lin Mu’an asked doubtfully.

“Do you think it is a good thing for her if I go?” Lu Qianqian punched on the sandbag. “Since you know it already, do you think I will go and embarrass myself?”

“I can help you if you want to.” Lin Mu’an suggested. “I need a date. I can help you disguise yourself.”

“Wouldn’t it be more humiliating if people find out about it?” Lu Qianqian glared at Lin Mu’an. “This idea sucks.”

After hearing the three words, Lin Mu’an laughed. “Lu Qianqian, you are pretty and you have a good background. But why are you blind?”

“If I am not blind, would I be friends with you?” Lu Qianqian harrumphed.

“Let’s meet up at another place. Not in this martial art center. You still owe me one day.”

“If the paparazzi get hold of us being together, then it will be the end for you.” Lu Qianqian disagreed.

“What’s the big deal? We can just become a notorious couple. I will just fall into the pit with you.” Lin Mu’an smiled warmly. “Being a friend, I must be loyal and considerate. Otherwise, I should just become an artificial flower (useless display).”

Lu Qianqian did not say anything. She turned around and smiled in secret.

“During Qiqi’s engagement ceremony, you should help her to keep an eye. If there is anyone trying to cause trouble, you should give her a hand.”

Lin Mu’an patted his chest confidently. “What’s so difficult about it? I will handle it.”

Then, Lin Mu’an walked closer to Lu Qianqian and asked. “Do you know how to swim? I need a coach. A coach that can breathe mouth-to-mouth in the water.”

Lu Qianqian’s response was of course giving him a good beating.

…

The preparation for the engagement was settled in a short time. Mama Sheng tried her best to make it a memorable one for her son.

As for the Shen family, they asked Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao to go to the ancestral hall of the Shen family three days before the ceremony. Although Qiqi was not acknowledged as the granddaughter-in-law in the Sheng family, Sheng Xiao was acknowledged as the grandson-in-law of the Shen family.

“I want to inform the ancestors that the Shen family is getting a new family member.” Grandpa Shen said, standing behind them. “Sheng Xiao, I don’t know the rules in the Sheng family. But, from now on, you will also be part of the Shen family. if you dare to let Qiqi down, I will punish you according to the rules of the Shen family in this ancestral hall.”

“Yes.” Sheng Xiao answered firmly.

“Since we have informed the ancestors, off you go now. We shall meet again during the engagement ceremony.” Grandpa Shen said to the two.

“Grandpa…”

“Go,” Grandpa said to Mu Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi wanted to say something to him. But the old man had already turned his back to them.

Sheng Xiao patted Mu Qiqi on her head and brought her out of Shen Mansion. “We will be living in Jing Ting, not Sheng Mansion. You can come here anytime you want.”

Mu Qiqi turned her head and looked at Grandpa Shen. She let go of Sheng Xiao’s hand and knelt at the door, facing Grandpa Shen. She gave him a kowtow and promised him that she would live up to the family name.

Sheng Xiao looked at Mu Qiqi. When she was kowtowing, he said, “Qi’er, you can still change your mind.”

“You are already seeing yourself as the grandson-in-law of the Shen family. Are you trying to deny it now?” Mu Qiqi stood up and glared at Sheng Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, seeing that you are worried now, tomorrow’s event must be going to be very exciting.”

“Indeed… It has been a long time since I last bullied someone in public…”
