Let her be arrogant

Chapter 43 Song Family
  As soon as Sheng Lanqing got out of the car, she saw Song Shiyu with his hands in his pockets, wearing an exaggerated pink suit, white shirt, and a silver necklace with a skull. He beamed when he saw her.

"Baby, you're here!"

She had just finished dealing with Xi Yu and really had no intention of talking to Song Shiyu. She just glanced at him and let it go.

Song Shiyu mistakenly thought that she was angry, and quickly explained: "I didn't mean to break the appointment, but my dad has something to do and I have to go. Besides, I will inherit the company in the future."

Sheng Lanqing only thought it was ridiculous.

Just because of the title of heir to the Song family, even if Sheng Cangting found out about her relationship with Xi Yu, she was still reluctant to let go.

Regarding Song Shiyu's inquiry, the Sheng family was vague and only said that she was busy with work and had not been home for a few days and was not in the hotel.

She was really exhausted because of Mr. Song's liking.

"Did you read my interview?"

After Sheng Lanqing got in the car, she leaned back on the chair to soothe her aching nerves and asked casually.

"I saw it. You answered it very well. The reporter saw it and was looking for trouble."

Song Shiyu was very angry and his voice became much louder.

"How could you be with Mr. Xi? He is such a superior person, and you..."

The words stopped abruptly here.

Song Shiyu smiled awkwardly and hurriedly explained: "Baby, I don't mean anything else. People like Mr. Xi, even our old man, look down upon him and don't dare to say a word loudly."

"And I...what's wrong with me?"

Sheng Lanqing knew the truth and wanted to hear Song Shiyu tell her about her image in the minds of these people.

"Everyone should be aware of your situation in the Sheng family."

Song Shiyu was a little annoyed and continued: "But you are famous and sound noble. I like it, and my family won't say anything. Anyway, the Song family doesn't need me to go to high-ranking ladies..."

So he hit it off with the Sheng family and maintained his current status while taking into account his son's preferences.

"Why can't Xi Yu and I be together?"

Normally, Sheng Lanqing would not ask such unabashed questions.

But now her heart was on fire, like a cat's claws scratching her heart and lungs, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Baby, you didn't grow up in our circle, so of course you don't know this."

Song Shiyu opened his eyes wide and told her in detail, half surprised.

"People like us have never been able to make the decision on our own marriage. I am relatively lucky, I am considered a special case, and Mr. Xi..."

"He is a non-marriage person, don't you know?"

As soon as Song Shiyu finished speaking, he started asking and answering questions.

"You don't know that it's normal. The most beautiful daughter in the industry used to play the violin at the birthday party after returning from studying abroad. She took a surprised look at Mr. Xi and relied on her father's business dealings with him to go to pester him..."

"Mr. Xi was impatient and immediately let out the news that he had no intention of getting married in his life and would not change his mind for anyone."

"Mr. Xi's words are never impossible to say."

"Baby, you don't want to be his nameless bed partner, do you?"

Sheng Lanqing felt a chill in her heart, and the biting coldness spread across her skin, making her feel painfully cold.

After doing something so intimate, his attitude didn't get any better.

"Of course not."

She replied slowly.

Sheng Lanqing suddenly realized that Xi Yu, the little master, had become a bit strange to her.

The fence around the flowers was opened to both sides, and the car stopped in the Song family yard.

Song Shiyu opened the trunk, took out the gifts he had prepared in advance one by one, and walked around to Sheng Lanqing's side.

"Baby, come on." He stretched out his arm toward her, motioning for her to extend her hand.

Sheng Lanqing calmed down, hugged his arm as if intimately, walked up the stairs together, and walked into the half-open door.

In the living room, a man with dark green eyes sat in the first place, leaning casually on the edge of the armchair.

People from the Song family sat around on both sides, cautiously cheering, and they didn't look like they were welcoming a new daughter-in-law.

"Dad, I'm back. This is my fiancée, Sheng Lanqing."

Song Shiyu spoke, breaking the somewhat stagnant atmosphere in the room.

This was the first time Sheng Lanqing met Song Shiyu's father.

His face clearly bore the pressure of having been in a high position for many years, but in contrast, he wore a pair of gloves and used scissors to cut off the excess part of the cigar as if walking on thin ice.

"fiancée?"

Sheng Lanqing's heart dropped. When she saw Mr. Xie, who had always been kind to her and even somewhat open to her, his gentle face became colder.

"Come and light a cigarette for me."

Xie Si frowned and nodded at her casually.

"Go quickly."

Father Song put the cigar into her hand, and then there was a force behind her.

Sheng Lanqing turned slightly sideways and caught a glimpse of Song Shiyu's pleading eyes.

Just like that night, he had no worries that she would be in trouble or fall into a worse situation.

She suddenly felt happy.

Fortunately, Xie Si did not mention Xi Yu's name, otherwise it would only make her even more embarrassed.

Sheng Lanqing put the cigar close to the outermost flame of the ignition gun and slowly rotated it until it was evenly heated.

When the cigar had some slight black edges on the outside and the whole thing was lit red, he handed it to Xie Si.

"Thank you, sir, please."

She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes like butterfly wings trembling slightly, her expression calm and tranquil.

Xi Yu also liked cigars in the past. In order to get closer to him, she specially signed up for a class to learn the most basic social etiquette among celebrities.

Lu Lin was relatively happy to see the results, thinking that she had finally given up on her fate and decided to become a rich wife of a wealthy family or a mistress of a higher class after graduating from college.

Later, when she became close to him, she complained about his bad habit of smoking cigars and found many horrific cases and pictures to scare him.

Xi Yu never touched cigarettes again.

"Has the Song family decided to welcome her in?"

Xie Si looked at her for a long time, until Sheng Lanqing's hand raised in the air began to feel sore, then he took the cigar and spoke with a hint of irony.

Song's father couldn't guess what he was thinking, but he clearly saw Xie Si making things difficult for her, so he could only apologize.

"It's just children playing around, don't take it seriously."

Sheng Lanqing could not say a word in the conversation as if there was no one around.

"Baby, don't be angry."

Song Shiyu caught up with him panting and stood in front of her with a playful smile.

"My dad just said it casually to deal with Mr. Xie's situation. Our two families have discussed getting married. How can it be a joke?"

Sheng Lanqing remained silent until Song Shiyu's smile froze on his face, and then he said calmly: "What your father said makes sense. Marriage is just a few words, so why isn't it a joke?"

It was just their playfulness that determined her fate and life.

"There's something else going on at the theater, I'll leave first."
