The Sheng family.

Sheng Yan stood at the door, impatiently glancing at his watch.

We agreed to meet at the Sheng family's gate at 10 o'clock, but it's already 10:30 and Shi Xi still hasn't arrived.

Just as he was about to call and urge her, Shi Xi finally appeared.

Upon seeing Shi Xi's green hair, Sheng Yan paused for a moment in surprise.

In his memory, Shi Xi had never dyed her hair such a striking color.

Shi Xi got out of the car and said apologetically, "Sorry I'm late."

Sheng Yan glanced at Shi Xi and said indifferently, "Let's go in first."

He knew his parents wanted to bring the two of them together.

However, it's impossible for him to marry Shi Xi.

Shi Xi followed behind Sheng Yan, walking listlessly.

Dealing with elders is too much trouble.

Sheng Yan frowned slightly, finding it even stranger.

In the past, whenever Shi Xi saw him, she would chat with him with great enthusiasm.

Why is today so strange?

Is she unhappy because the Shi family's real daughter is back? Is the Shi family treating her badly?

Sheng Yan guessed that he had already led Shi Xi into the living room.

Mr. and Mrs. Sheng were both in the living room. When they saw Shi Xi, they were both stunned for a moment.

Anyone who sees that head of bright green hair can't help but take a second look.

"Xiaoxi, when did you dye your hair?" Sheng's mother couldn't help but ask.

"Hello, Uncle and Aunt," Shi Xi tossed her long hair and asked with a showy air, "I just dyed it today, does it look good?"

Mr. Sheng was speechless.

Mother Sheng laughed awkwardly: "It's quite unique, haha."

"Sit down." Sheng Yan sat in the single sofa, his eyes indifferent.

He knew that the reason Sheng's parents had called Shi Xi over today was definitely not out of simple concern.

Even if they cared, they wouldn't care about that head of green hair!

He doesn't have any other women, so how could Shi Xi possibly be cheated on?

Mrs. Sheng asked with a smile, "I heard you moved out of the Shi family's house?"

Shi Xi nodded, yet seemed somewhat puzzled.

How come the whole world knows she moved out of the Shi family?

"Have you been mistreated at home? Why don't you stay at the Sheng family's house for the next few days?" Mother Sheng smiled kindly, with a hint of ambiguity. "You'll be moving in eventually anyway, so this is a good way to get acquainted with the place beforehand."

Sheng Yan: ...

Shi Xi naturally understood the implication in Sheng's mother's words and refused directly, saying, "No need. I'm currently filming on set, so it's more convenient for me to stay at a hotel near the film set."

Mr. Sheng spoke up: "It really wasn't the Shi family who kicked you out?"

Shi Xi: "My parents are very good to me. Even if I'm not their biological daughter, they won't abandon me."

Sheng Yan glanced at Shi Xi's hair and thought to himself, "Can't Shi's parents do something about your dyed hair?"

"It's good that you weren't wronged. After all, I watched you grow up, and I've always considered you my daughter." Mother Sheng smiled. "Your birthday is coming up soon, so why don't we arrange your engagement with Sheng Yan on your birthday?"

Sheng Yan's thin lips pressed into a straight line, clearly indicating his unwillingness.

Shi Xi said seriously, "Auntie, I came here today to talk about this matter."

Sheng's mother: "Hmm?"

Shi Xi: "I heard my mother say that the marriage agreement between the two families was made before I was born. Since I am not the biological daughter of the Shi family, then this marriage agreement is invalid." Or you can find Ning Yu to fulfill the marriage agreement, anyway, she is the female lead.

Upon hearing this, Sheng's parents, and even Sheng Yan himself, were all surprised.

Shi Xi actually took the initiative to propose breaking off the engagement?

Mr. Sheng frowned. "Xi'er, do you think our Sheng family is going to form a marriage alliance with the Shi family, which is why we arranged this engagement?"
