Chapter 564 Arrogance



When Sheng Shijing finished washing up and returned to the room, Xie Xihe had already fallen asleep.

In order to finish filming the scenes of Princess Fanghua before school starts, she has been staying on the crew of Qingcheng Fu during this period. She also took time out to shoot the new summer issue of Tianyao, and her sleep time was reduced to less than half of the usual time.

I was already quite tired, and after all the trouble I had just gone through, I naturally couldn't take it anymore. I fell asleep almost as soon as my head touched the pillow.

Sheng Shijing tiptoed into the room, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he did not disturb her, but just looked at her gently.

Perhaps because she noticed his gaze or because she didn't sleep well, Xie Xihe muttered softly and turned to the side.

The smooth silk pajamas slipped off her shoulders as she moved, revealing the girl's round and delicate shoulders, and also exposing the kiss marks on her fair skin to Sheng Shijing's sight.

Sheng Shijing's features became more gentle.

With a slight curve at the corner of his lips, he reached out and pulled up his pajamas that had slipped down, covering up the spring light that was inadvertently pouring out, and then covered the corner of the quilt for her, and then slowly stood up.

The door closed silently, and Sheng Shijing turned and went into the study next door.

"What other work do you want me to do? Just tell me, I've been defeated by you two!" Falcon cursed, but his movements did not show any dissatisfaction. He jumped up from the bed and turned on his computer directly.

Sheng Shijing's voice was very cold: "Help me find someone."

Falcon couldn't help but complain, "The last matter hasn't even come to an end, and now there's another problem? You two are really a complex of trouble. Trouble finds you wherever you go."

Sheng Shijing: "There is no evidence, but I suspect that the last incident might be related to this person."

The distracted look on Falcon's face disappeared in an instant, and he finally straightened his expression: "Who?"

Sheng Shijing uttered a name in a low voice.

Falcon's lips tightened: "I understand. I'll give you the results as soon as possible."

Sheng Shijing responded and reminded: "The other party is very cautious, be careful when you check, and..."

Sheng Shijing paused, his expression changing as he continued, "Don't mention this to Xihe until the result is confirmed."

Falcon frowned, but after a moment's hesitation, he didn't refuse: "Got it, hanging up."

Sheng Shijing put his phone aside and tapped the tabletop with his fingers habitually. After a long while, he glanced sideways towards the corner of the study and whispered a few words.

A low "yes" was heard, and a dark shadow passed by, and the study fell into silence again.

Sheng Shijing stayed in the study for another hour before returning to his room.

Sensing the familiar warmth, Xie Xihe subconsciously leaned over even in his sleep.

The coldness on Sheng Shijing's face disappeared, revealing a gentle look. He stretched out his long arms and embraced his girl in his arms.

The two fell asleep in each other's arms.

The start date of Jingdayuan College is later than that of other colleges and majors, and is scheduled for September 10th.

Xie Xihe had almost finished the work at hand. Apart from a few trips to Dawn Light and Xiguang Group, he spent the rest of his time accompanying Grandpa Xie and Sheng Ming.

"Who came up with the idea of climbing the Great Wall? Stand out, I promise I won't beat you to death!" Xie Yi said with a resentful look on his face while swinging his legs.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit by a slap on the face. Xie Bowen blew his beard and glared: "Your father's father proposed it, let's try it!"

Xie Yi turned cowardly in an instant, and said with a chuckle, "I'm just kidding, Grandpa, don't take it seriously. Getting angry is bad for your health. The doctor told you last time that you need to stay calm and cultivate your character."

It would have been fine if he didn't say anything, but as soon as he mentioned it, Mr. Xie became extremely angry.

He stole a glance at Xie Xihe, who was still talking to Sheng Ming behind him. Seeing that she didn't notice him, he moved closer to Xie Yi and said in a low voice, "Tell me the truth, did you betray me? How did your aunt know that my blood sugar was high?"

Xie Yi's eyes widened: "How could it be me?!"

He lowered his voice and said, "When your blood sugar got high, my aunt gave away all the sweets in the house and even banned sugar from our meals. I must have been so upset that I complained to you."

With a sad face, she said, "In order to avoid making you greedy, my aunt even forbade me from drinking milk tea. I haven't had milk tea in almost a month!"

Xie Bowen thought so too, but he was puzzled: "What's going on? I clearly hid the report..."

"I forgot to tell you that I met Dr. Cui who treated you a few times some time ago. I asked him myself."

The girl's voice came from behind. Xie Bowen shuddered and turned around with a wry smile: "My girl..."

"There's no room for negotiation. You can't call me daughter, and you can't call me ancestor either." Xie Xihe was cold and ruthless.

The smile on Xie Bowen's face fell instantly. He snorted coldly and took out his key to knock on the door.

But just as he raised his hand, he was stopped by a hand that stretched out from the horizontal spike.

Xie Xihe didn't know when she came forward. She pulled Xie Bowen behind her with her backhand, and her eyes, which seemed to be tempered with frost, stared at the door in front of her without blinking.

Xie Bowen was startled and said hesitantly, "Daughter?"

Xie Xihe suppressed his expression, glanced back at him, and said calmly, "Someone is home. I'll go in first."

Xie Bowen wanted to say that of course there was someone at home, wasn’t Mrs. Zheng a person?

But before he could say anything, he realized what she meant. He was startled and immediately wanted to stop her.

But he was still a step too late, and Xie Xihe had already kicked open the door.

With a loud "bang", the heavy security door suddenly bounced open from outside. The force was so great that it knocked the people behind the door to the ground, and also knocked all the things they were holding or holding in their hands to the ground.

There was a lot of clanging and ping-pong sounds.

The person inside the door was startled and fell to the ground, unable to recover for a long time until the girl's cold voice rang out.

Xie Xihe looked down at the people on the ground, his eyes already covered with frost, and asked coldly: "What are you doing?"

Everyone came back to their senses instantly, their eyes flashing with confusion, but when they looked up and saw Xie Xihe's face, they regained their composure. They quickly stood up and said with their necks stiff, "Can't you see what we are doing? Of course, we are returning the Xie family's belongings to their rightful owners!"

The leader was an old man in his seventies. His buttocks hurt from the previous fall, but he was unwilling to show it in front of Xie Xihe and others, and just endured the pain.

He glanced at the four of them and sneered, "You're all back? Great, that's just right. I was just worried about not being able to settle some accounts with you guys properly, so now that you're back, it's a good opportunity to settle them all at once!"
