Cheng Ze had no idea that his unreliable father, Cheng Duoguo, would betray him in a moment of carelessness.
He was strolling with Lu Siqiao through a bookstore in Beijing, intently selecting study materials for her fifth grade.
At that moment, both of them saw a Chinese language textbook and instinctively reached out to grab it.
Their heads bumped together.
Coming to their senses, the two blushed and burst into laughter.
After browsing the bookstore, they went to the department store for a walk.
"Cheng Ze, it really is you." Two young men and women walked over and quickly greeted them.
Their gazes fell on Lu Siqiao, and they quickly showed expressions of fondness: "What an adorable little sister, is she your sister?"
A chubby man approached Lu Siqiao, bowed slightly, and introduced, "Little girl, my name is Daxiong, and I'm Cheng Ze's classmate. Her name is Axiang."
Nobita and A-Xiang?
Lu Siqiao's eyes were bright, and she sweetly greeted, "Hello, older brother and sister, my name is Lu Siqiao."
Da Xiong and A Xiang asked her what grade she was in, what books she had studied, and so on. They were surprised to learn that she would be a fifth grader when school started, and their eyes were filled with more joy when they looked at her.
“She’s my neighbor’s younger sister in City A. She’s here in Beijing to visit relatives. I brought her here to find some tutoring materials.” Cheng Ze pulled Lu Siqiao back calmly, looking protective of her. “You two go do what you’re supposed to do.”
“It’s a rare treat for a young lady to come to the capital. Aze, you should show her around and show her the sights.” At this moment, a handsome young man came over and invited Lu Siqiao, “Young lady, we have a party tonight. Why don’t you come with Aze?”
Lu Siqiao looked at Cheng Ze and said trustingly, "I'll listen to Brother Ze."
Cheng Ze's face turned ashen, and he coldly said to the boy, "Long Shaofeng, Qiao Wa is not available."
Lu Siqiao was momentarily distracted when someone grabbed her arm and she heard a soft laugh in her ear: "Aze, this little sister is so cute, don't hoard her, let us take her out to play with her."
The girl's delicate features bore a striking resemblance to Fang Jun.
Lu Siqiao was incredibly clever; she immediately realized that the other party had undoubtedly set up a trap.
"Qiaowa, my name is Fang Mingshu, it's nice to meet you." The girl extended her hand and greeted her. "You're a good girl, you won't refuse our kindness, will you?"
Coercion and enticement.
Lu Siqiao clearly saw Cheng Ze secretly winking at her.
“Okay, Sister Mingshu.” She gave a well-behaved look.
Fang Mingshu was very satisfied. She squeezed Qiaowa's small hand and said in a voice as cold as frost, "Qiaowa, Aze treats you so well. I have never seen him so close to any other girl."
After saying that, she left with Long Shaofeng.
His gaze turned cold as he said, "She's just a little girl, yet my mother and brother were completely fooled by her. It's truly shameful."
Long Shaofeng looked on with amusement: "She'll soon find out who she's offended. This isn't City A; these are big shots she can't afford to mess with."
"Qiaowa, why did you agree to them?" Cheng Ze patted Lu Siqiao's head, puzzled.
Lu Siqiao's eyebrows curved, and her smile was innocent: "What is meant to be will be, and what is meant to be will be."
Cheng Ze chuckled. "That Fang Mingshu is Fang Jun's younger sister. Because Chen Fangmei divorced a long time ago, Fang Mingshu has been living with her father all these years. They have many connections with Chen Luoxia, and it's also a family marriage. I don't get along with them usually."
"No wonder Fang Mingshu is so hostile towards me; she was trying to intimidate me." Lu Siqiao stuck out her tongue.
In fact, she knew in her heart that besides the reason Fang Jun was arrested, Chen Luoxia and her daughter were also stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
Alosha is Fang Min's maternal aunt.
"Since we're attending the banquet, let me take you to pick out a couple of outfits." Cheng Ze put his worries aside and led Lu Siqiao to choose two pink princess dresses.
With a little dressing up, Lu Siqiao exuded elegance from head to toe.
Ah Xiang hugged her tightly and chuckled, "She's so cute. I would be perfectly content if I had such an obedient and sensible little sister."
The children strolled around the mall for a while, and around 7 o'clock, their respective drivers came to pick them up and take them to the villa area on Taishan Road.
Lu Siqiao then realized that the party was being held at Fang Mingshu's house, and the Cheng family lived just across the street from their house.
Cheng Ze didn't want her to come because he didn't want her to see Huang Ling, who worked for the Cheng family.
These young masters and ladies love to make a fuss about their status.
Little did he know that Lu Siqiao was also a wealthy heiress.
As dusk settled, Chen Fangmei stood at the entrance of a villa on the mountaintop, her face contorted with rage as she said to Fang Mingshu, "Shushu, you absolutely must not let that wretched girl surnamed Lu get away with it! She's the one who got your brother imprisoned!"
Fang Mingshu flicked the large orange bow in her hair and said casually, "You're giving her too much credit for a country girl. I've seen her; she's nothing to be afraid of."
"Shushu, don't be fooled by her. She knows a kind of evil magic that can make people tell the truth." Chen Fangmei remembered what Fang Jun had said. He had been keeping his mouth shut, but unexpectedly, he suddenly became possessed and spilled everything he had done.
Chen Fangmei sent someone to inquire again, and the arsonist was exactly the same.
What other reason could there be besides Lu Siqiao secretly using some kind of evil magic?
"Mom, you believe what my brother says? As long as you don't do anything wrong, what are you afraid of when ghosts knock on the door?" Fang Mingshu never believed such a ridiculous statement and said coldly, "Tonight I'll make sure that girl never comes back, and she'll be crying and begging me to let her go."
Seeing her confident demeanor, Chen Fangmei felt somewhat relieved.
She changed her demeanor instantly, enthusiastically helping Fang Mingshu greet the guests.
She felt slightly embarrassed by the surprised looks from acquaintances.
It turns out that after Chen Fangmei divorced Fang Linghai, Fang Linghai quickly remarried and is now on vacation abroad with his wife and children. Fang Mingshu is throwing a party, and this ex-wife is acting like the lady of the house at her ex-husband's house – that's really not right.
But in order to get revenge on Lu Siqiao, Chen Fangmei didn't care about anything else.
"Cousin, you're here." Seeing Fang Dingding approach, Fang Mingshu went up to her and warmly put her arm around her, then greeted the seven-year-old boy beside her, "Hello, Cousin Lixuan."
"Hello, cousin." Fang Lixuan had an ordinary appearance, a youthful face, and somewhat fierce eyes, giving him an unapproachable look.
He doesn't look like Fang Dingding at all.
Fang Mingshu thought that Lu Siqiao was only eight years old, so why was there such a big difference in the mental development of the two children?
Fang Lixuan is a mischievous child. I heard that Chen Luoxia changed his school three times, and he is currently only in the first grade.
Just then, a Shanghai sedan was parked at the entrance.
Cheng Ze opened the door himself, and Lu Siqiao crawled out from inside.
She has a petite figure and a serene, beautiful smile on her face.
Her jet-black hair was tied up in two small buns, and when she smiled, two shallow dimples would appear at the corners of her mouth.
A commotion arose among the guests.
Whose daughter is so cute?
