Chapter 861 - If it Really is a Son, He’ll be Called Sheng Batian!

After nightfall, Sheng Xiao brought Mu Qiqi back to the Shen family’s home. Old Master Shen saw that she was looking healthy and like she held treasure. He led Mu Qiqi to the study and gave her a brocade box. “This is my gift to my great-grandson.”

“Grandfather, you’re too stingy. When Grandpa Sheng knew that I was pregnant, he said that he would give all of Huang Yao’s shares.” Mu Qiqi teased him on purpose.

“How can that be the same? Your grandfather isn’t a businessman. How can he give you tens of thousands? If you want it, then take it. If you don’t want it, then forget it.” The old man was grumpy and turned his back to Mu Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi chuckled and hugged the old man’s arm coquettishly. “Whatever you give me, I’ll be happy.”

“Too late.”

“So, Grandfather, be a little more magnanimous. Don’t be outdone by your little great-grandson.”

The old man pouted and was a little surprised by this little thing’s actions.

When Sheng Xiao saw this, he could not help but secretly smile. She was actually making fun of her grandfather.

Sheng Xiao turned around and went to Shen Jianchuan’s antiques room. He saw that he was wearing a vest and standing in the middle of a pile of antiques. He did not feel out of place at all.

Shen Jianchuan went to the room to see him and asked, “Did the matter with Tang Yan go smoothly?”

“It was because it went too smoothly that a hidden danger was left behind.” Sheng Xiao raised his head and looked at his father-in-law. “Sheng Kai...”

Shen Jianchuan thought for a moment and sat down on the sofa. “This is really a difficult problem. The war with Jin Bo is just the beginning. We don’t know how many years this road will take us. Now that Sheng Kai is caught in the middle, it’s really uncomfortable. Do you have any thoughts?”

Sheng Xiao shook his head. “Sheng Kai has many thoughts, heavy ones. It’s not easy to control him. Even if we set up a plan for him today, he will be able to overturn it very soon.”

“He’s your brother. You know better than us what kind of person he is. If you really want to pull him back, then put him in the most conspicuous place so that Jin Bo won’t have the strength to deal with him. I think this is probably Old Master Sheng’s wish too, right?”

Sheng Xiao did not answer, but Shen Jianchuan laughed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It’s not strange at all. This is what the human heart is like.” After saying that, Shen Jianchuan glanced at Sheng Xiao again. “All these years, you haven’t been forced by Old Master Sheng into a headstrong and opinionated personality. You’ve taken on the responsibilities of a man quite well.”

Sheng Xiao’s gaze turned to Mu Qiqi who was outside the door.

If it wasn’t for her appearing, perhaps he would still be that cynical crown prince.

In this lifetime, there wouldn’t be much change.

“Jin Bo’s son will be back in a few days, right? So, you don’t have to be anxious. The fact is that Sheng Kai is lacking an opportunity and he’s being suspected now. It’s best if you don’t pay any attention to it and let Jin Bo be completely at ease.”

Outside the door, Mu Qiqi was very impatient and poked her head into the room. “I’ve never seen a couple like the two of you talk so much.”

“Go out and accompany her,” Shen Jianchuan said to Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao nodded slightly and got up. He was dragged by Mu Qiqi to sit on the sofa while she exclaimed, “Grandfather, let me tell you. I found a helper and I don’t believe that my Master Xiao can’t beat you.”

“Eighth Brother, want to play?”

“Don’t cry if you lose,” Sheng Xiao said proudly.

..

Tang Yan had been in the hospital for three days. He wanted to get out of bed and walk again. Feng Shanshan felt like her heart was being stabbed when she saw him get up. It hurt like hell.

Her eyes turned red. Tang Yan had no choice but to surrender. “Okay, I won’t get out of bed.”

“Do you think you only took a few punches? You clearly have a few broken ribs,” Feng Shanshan said as she wiped away her tears.

“I just... wanted to go to the bathroom.”

“Why didn’t you say so earlier? I’ll help you.” Feng Shanshan’s face was flushed red as she helped Tang Yan to the bathroom.

“You’ve already seen it long ago. Why are you still shy now?” Tang Yan saw that she was avoiding him and could not help wanting to tease her.

“That’s different.” Feng Shanshan helped him back to the bed. Then, the nurses made ward rounds.

After one night, the entire ward became quiet. Feng Shanshan had been sleeping on the hospital bed next to Tang Yan for the past two days, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

“You’re sleeping next to me tonight?”

“But you’re injured...”

“I just want to hold you and make sure that you’re by my side,” Tang Yan said softly.

Feng Shanshan did not have the ability to resist at all, so she nodded. “Then, be gentle. I’m afraid that I’ll pull on your wound.”

The two of them lay quietly on the bed. Tang Yan took a deep breath. “Cheng Bin’s matter has finally been settled.”

“Mm,” Feng Shanshan acknowledged.

“From now on, no one will threaten your safety.”

“If you knew that I wasn’t in Cheng Bin’s hands, why did you still go to meet him?”

“Because I want him to die, and I don’t want innocent people to sacrifice themselves for us.” Tang Yan’s tone was extremely sharp when he said this. Feng Shanshan trembled. “I went crazy, but Sheng Xiao made him disappear in a reasonable way. This person is too scary...”

“Because he knows that Cheng Bin is your enemy. This is the best outcome.”

Not wanting to mention that name again, Tang Yan hugged Feng Shanshan tightly and said, “Sleep. I’m by your side... I’ll always be here.”

Without sensing any threat, Feng Shanshan finally relaxed and had a good night’s sleep.

..

It started to drizzle in Jianchuan in the middle of the night.

Mu Qiqi woke up and realized that Sheng Xiao was still in the study when she saw that no one was around.

So, she put on her coat and gently pushed open the door to the study.

In the room, Sheng Xiao was wearing a black shirt, which made him look indescribably sexy. With his collar bone exposed, Mu Qiqi felt like she was about to get a nosebleed.

“What kind of problem did you run into? Why aren’t you sleeping at this time of night...”

She sat on top of him and he subconsciously hugged her. “Sheng Kai.”

“What’s wrong with Sheng Kai?”

“He passed the message out and was suspected by Jin Bo. He tortured him for a few days.”

When Mu Qiqi heard this, she hugged Sheng Xiao’s neck. “My man, there’s always a way to solve the problem. There’s nothing in this world that’s hard. You just haven’t thought of it yet...”

“You’ve tried all sorts of tricks to pull Captain Tang back. What’s a mere Sheng Kai?”

“Thank you for thinking so highly of me.” Sheng Xiao looked at her and scoffed.

“I’ll cheer for you with my son.”

“I want a daughter,” Sheng Xiao looked at her belly and answered.

“I don’t. I just want to bully my son. Who asked you to bully me all the time? My son is like you, so I feel comfortable bullying him.”

“You’re a medical student. Don’t you know that there’s a higher chance for a son to resemble his mother?”

Mu Qiqi did not answer.

It was said that a pregnant woman was foolish for three years. She was only less than two months pregnant, yet she was already so silly?

“But I still want a son. Moreover, I’ve already given him a name. Fifth Aunt said that a child’s name needs to be grand. I feel that it’s not grand enough, and it needs to be domineering, so...”

“So?”

“If it really is a son, he’ll be called Sheng Batian!”

Sheng Xiao was slightly drunk. He rubbed his forehead, speechless.
