Let her be arrogant

Chapter 157 Finale
"But, you need to promise me that you will be fully involved in this case from beginning to end, and you will not let any news about it to the outside world."

Xi Yu said seriously.

"After all, she is a public figure. Even if she can see things openly, this is not the reason for her to be harmed."

Wen Ning smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is our basic principle in handling cases."

When Wen Ning sent Xi Yu out of the police station, it started to rain lightly outside.

Just when Wen Ning was about to go back and get the umbrella, he saw Xi Yu walking into the rain without hesitation. Before he could stop him, he saw a slender figure holding an umbrella not far away walking towards Xi Yu quickly.

"Why didn't you wait for me to come over?"

Sheng Lanqing stood on tiptoes, reached out to brush away the water droplets on Xi Yu's hair, and couldn't help but scolded.

Xi Yu said unmoved: "You didn't wait for me to come over."

Sheng Lanqing knew what he was talking about and couldn't help but feel a little unreasonable.

"Okay, I know I was wrong and I won't do it again."

A few days later, Wen Ning called the police station to inform him of the latest developments.

"Li Ruofu was in the hospital. As soon as she heard Gu Huairuo's words, she immediately betrayed her. She confessed everything Gu Huairuo told her to do. She even asked for the child to be aborted immediately."

"We have detained Gu Huairuo in accordance with the law, but his parents reacted very emotionally and said they would come to you for an explanation. You should pay more attention in the past two days."

After Sheng Lanqing thanked him, he hung up the phone.

She was not surprised by the reaction of Teacher Gu and his wife, after all, that was their only pride.

Ever since he was young, Gu Huairuo has been reluctant to let him go even if he took the slightest detour.

Even if a little dust falls on him, they will brush it away immediately.

"I don't know what kind of person Ah Jing will become in the future."

Sheng Lanqing looked at his son who looked the same every day and couldn't help but sigh.

"Perhaps we shouldn't place all our hopes on this child. It's still important to live out your own self."

"After all, the moment I decided to give birth to him, my first consideration was not my love for this child, but that I wanted someone to accompany me."

Hearing this, Xi Yu chuckled and said, "Don't think so much, I'm still here."

He meant that he would spend the rest of his life with her, but Sheng Lanqing unreasonably remembered the "seven-year itch" that Gu Qingzhi reminded her two days ago.

She and Xi Yu have not been married for seven years, but the time of dating and the ambiguous period of their previous acquaintance have long since passed.

The concerns that Gu Qingzhi and Wen Yu had after receiving the certificate suddenly spread to Sheng Lanqing.

"Are you going out again tonight?"

Sheng Lanqing couldn't help but turn her face to the side and carefully observed his every move.

"These days, you are always away from home, or you come back very late. You also always go abroad every now and then, and I can't always contact you."

Seeing her suspicious look, Xi Yu couldn't help but smile and said: "I did hide it from you the first few times and secretly checked my mental condition. The next few times, I was really talking about business."

According to common sense, if he wants to open up foreign markets, staying abroad for three or four years is not too much.

Just for Sheng Lanqing, he still chose to run in both directions.

"But you went abroad with Wen Ning before," Sheng Lanqing said worriedly, "What kind of business do you have with the police station? Could it be tax evasion or illegal crimes..."

She would guess...

Xi Yu was speechless.

She could only wait for her to finish all the suspicions in one breath, and then slowly explain: "Those that Qin Xue found before...are not serious people, and are related to drug trafficking. But I had direct contact with them at that time, and I was willing to cooperate with the police. people."

"There were both personal reasons and another sentiment, but I didn't want to involve you, so I didn't tell you. But now that the net has been closed, it's no longer dangerous."

"If it's really dangerous, I won't dare to be with you carelessly like this. Don't worry, I took care of everything before I appeared in front of you."

Xi Yu's arm was placed on the back of the chair behind her shoulders, in a possessive manner, but without the slightest aggression.

Sheng Lanqing couldn't help but feel a sore nose as she recalled the fireworks back then.

"Xi Yu, thank you."

She couldn't help but whisper.

Xi Yu was startled and asked with some confusion: "What did you just say?" "I said thank you," Sheng Lanqing laughed, leaned on his shoulder and said, "Thank you for liking me for so many years. I feel very happy.”

"Then do you want to hold a wedding with me?"

Xi Yu saw that she had no intention of raising an army to investigate, so she came up with an idea that she had always had.

"What wedding?"

Sheng Lanqing was not interested at all, and even his smile stopped.

"Ordinary people hold weddings either for the sense of ceremony or to get back the gift money."

"But our children are so old, how can we still have a sense of ceremony, and the gifts... we don't need them either. Holding a wedding would be a waste of time for ourselves."

Xi Yu heard her euphemistic meaning and couldn't help but said aggrievedly: "But now the outside world says that I am a scumbag. I won't even hold a wedding for you. I must want to divorce you just for fun. My reputation is ruined." broken!"

Sheng Lanqing said helplessly: "Then you won't suffer, they are all laughing at me. And..."

She was just about to say, "If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door." "You're not a scumbag, so you won't be afraid of others saying it." Then she changed her mind and took back these words.

She planned to implement an idea today, but of course she didn't want to alert the snake in advance.

"Well," she said perfunctorily, "you asked me to think about it and at least choose a better date. It's not like you don't know that I'm busy with work."

Xi Yu was indeed coaxed by her, and soon she went out to socialize in high spirits.

Not long after he went out, Sheng Lanqing put on heavy makeup and sunglasses and tiptoed out.

These days, she has heard more than once that there is a woman approaching Xi Yu outside.

She didn't doubt it at first, but Xi Yu didn't even mention these experiences every time he went home.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried. She took the title of an old friend and took the initiative to get close to Xi Yu, and Xi Yu really liked her.

So now if a younger, more beautiful, and more capable woman approaches him, it may not be a problem once or twice, but it may be different if it happens more times.

Sheng Lanqing attended a cocktail party earlier, and his heart softened when he saw those pretty girls acting coquettishly, let alone a self-proclaimed and arrogant man.

In the splendid reception and banquet hall, after drinking and drinking, several cooperation projects were quickly finalized.

Just as Xi Yu was about to leave, he was blocked by a girl with a plain face.

The girl opened a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and used eyeliner to outline the upward arc at the end of her eyes, which looked quite familiar.

Xi Yu was startled and realized that this familiarity originated from Sheng Lanqing.

The girl in front of her was dressing in the direction of Sheng Lanqing.

"Mr. Xi left so early. Didn't anyone talk to you?"

Compared with the sophistication of those women in the past, she still has a youthful look on her face, and the innocence of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

But these deliberately pretended naiveties were still discovered by Xi Yu at a glance.

He didn't even bother to look at her anymore and turned to leave.

"Mr. Xi, are you unwilling to say more to me?"

The girl was really anxious, and her behavior was not very calm, very much like Sheng Lanqing back then.

Xi Yu didn't take her words to heart at first.

He had seen many women like this who became so angry after failed attempts at seduction.

But after catching a glimpse of the person hiding behind the pillars in the hall, he changed his mind, stopped, turned around and said, "My wife was so close to me back then..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the eyes of the person in front of him shining with the light of a successful plot.

He couldn't help but add amusingly: "It's just that she was able to get close to me, it was all the result of my letting go, not that I didn't see through her little tricks."

"She is the one I like. She is willing to condescend to deceive me. I want it and I am ecstatic."

After Xi Yu finished speaking, he walked directly to the person who was trying to dodge, smiled and stretched out his hand to her, and said, "Qingqing, let's go home."

The text ends here, and I originally wanted to continue writing.

But I also think it would be better to put some of the sweet drama between Mr. Xi and Miss Sheng in the extras and show it from another perspective.

If nothing else happens, the episode may not be too short and will mention a bit about Ms. Sheng’s college life. Let’s write Miss Sheng’s youth chapter first tomorrow.
