Chapter 627: I Don’t Mind Educating Your Granddaughter for You
“This is my way of loving you.”
Mu Qiqi lowered her head. When she looked at their hands clasping together, she teared up. “I will also become a better and more respectable person for your sake.”
Naturally, after the speech given by Sheng Xiao, the young couple attracted a lot of attention from the audience.
Although they commented more about the matters between Mu Qiqi and Mu Tangxue more at first, after Sheng Xiao’s speech, the guests had the reason to believe that this woman wasn’t too bad since she could change a man who was once so feared into a man who was now so respected.
Hence, after the award ceremony, the guests in the hall praised Mu Qiqi more.
They all called her the winner of life. She had such a successful husband, such perfect love, and such an interesting soul.
And they had also begun to take Mu Qiqi as a role model for their children. They became much friendlier when they approached her afterward.
This was why Sheng Xiao wanted to give such a speech on the podium.
Qi’er had had everything. However, she still wanted to be a forensic assistant while studying. Her actions had given the second-generation of the rich who were unlearned a good slap on their faces.
Later, the couple entered the hall to enjoy the performances. Since it was a state banquet, the performances were a bit boring. So, they spent almost the entire hour chatting with each other. Then finally came the highlight of the evening, the banquet!
The guests entered the banquet hall one after another, and Secretary He came forward and patted Sheng Xiao’s shoulder. “You nearly scared me to death. Anyway, after I have thought it through, my words before came from my lack of trust in you. I thought young people are impatient, and that you aren’t a very warm-hearted man since I knew you. But after seeing you tonight, I think I can be rest assured from now on. Brother, you’ve matured a lot.”
“Of course. Otherwise, how can I let you entrust me with such important tasks?” Sheng Xiao laughed softly.
“You are now the person who even the second commander favors. He has been praising you since just now. Soon, you won’t need me anymore.” Secretary He put on a mysterious smile. “But I know you are a loyal person. So, I am not afraid that you will pull the rug out from under me.”
“Let’s find a place to sit. We shall talk while eating.”
“The president is already here. Have you seen him?”
Mu Qiqi looked through the crowd and sure enough, she saw the person who she could only see on the TV during her daily life.
He was surrounded by many bodyguards.
She was now someone who had seen the president in person.
Just as she was about to sit down, Li Ai called for her from behind. “Mu Qiqi…”
Mu Qiqi turned and looked at Li Ai. Her face obviously showed doubt, but then Li Ai pointed to a sensitive part of her body in embarrassment, hinting that her monthly visitor had come during such an important occasion. She must be asking Mu Qiqi if she had that thing.
Mu Qiqi shook her head. It was not her lady time. But she got hold of a staff member passing by and asked her to think of a solution, considering herself returning Li Ai’s favor of standing up for her just now.
As she returned to Sheng Xiao’s side, she tripped on someone, losing her balance to one side. Luckily, Sheng Xiao grabbed her just in time.
Leaning in her man’s arms, Mu Qiqi blushed immediately.
“Are you thinking of embarrassing yourself in the state banquet?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “I fear this the most. That’s why I have been very careful the whole night.”
“What are you afraid of? Can’t I catch you when you fall? It’s no big deal if we embarrass ourselves together.”
When Mu Qiqi looked around, only then she realized that the guests around them were staring at them when Sheng Xiao grabbed her. They were all smiling.
“Let’s go and sit down.”
“Oh Brother, if it’s not because Qiqi is young, you will really be laughed at.” Secretary He laughed. “Little sister’s youth and energy are irresistible. Everyone seems to be able to understand you.”
“I told you I only have this one treasure,” Sheng Xiao said, looking at Mu Qiqi. And then the two started talking about everything again.
Right then, Chen Qiao brought her grandfather to Sheng Xiao’s table. Judging from their faces, they did not come in peace.
“Shameless junior. You still have a long way to go, but you are already so arrogant now.”
Then, the old man deliberately got Chen Qiao to sit beside Mu Qiqi. “You can sit here. I shall see who dares to bully you.”
Chen Qiao looked at Mu Qiqi triumphantly. But sadly for her, Mu Qiqi did not intend to care about her at all. As for Sheng Xiao and Secretary He, they did not even glance at her.
Before the banquet started, the president gave a speech, wishing everyone a happy New Year. Then, the sound of fireworks was heard outside the banquet hall.
It was a meaningful year indeed.
After forty minutes, the state banquet had finally come to an end. Since the guests were eager to go back to thome, they left their seats one after another.
Right then, the grandfather of the Chen family went to his granddaughter again and said, “Qiaoqiao, Grandpa has stood up for you. When your Grandpa Lin mentioned the so-called outstanding young man, I told them they were just a group of petty and shallow people. Don’t be angry anymore and let’s go home.”
Chen Qiao snorted.
Mu Qiqi knew that the old man was purposely saying that to her. But she ignored him.
“I just don’t like her.”
“Qiaoqiao, you have a noble identity. How can you compare yourself with simply anybody? Listen to me and go home.”
To Mu Qiqi, he was just an old man who spoiled his granddaughter. So, she did not respond to his sarcastic remarks and pretended not to hear anything.
“Mu Qiqi, are you deaf?”
With that, Mu Qiqi turned around. However, Sheng Xiao grabbed her shoulder and said, “Wipe your mouth. We’re about to go home.”
“Okay.”
“It’s rumored that no one dares to mess with Chief Sheng. In my opinion, you are nothing.” Chen Qiao continued provoking the two.
“Old Chen, a child educated by a meritorious soldier shouldn’t be unreasonable and arrogant.” Sheng Xiao did not even look at Chen Qiao when speaking to Grandpa Chen.
“Spoiling her at home isn’t a problem. But you should know that you can’t protect her for her whole life. You should see how much you have overindulged her in making enemies. Don’t you see how many knives she will be stabbed by in the future? If you don’t educate her properly yourself, someone will do it for you in the future. You’ve been on the battlefield your whole life. This shouldn’t be something new to you, right? Today, I didn’t bring my wife here to mess with Miss Chen. In fact, she has tolerated her many times. If Old Chen still insists on being aggressive, I don’t mind educating your granddaughter for you. After all, I’m still young, aren’t I?”
In other words, you didn’t have much time left!
