The story begins a few hours ago.

Not long after Sheng Yuan saw Shi Yan off and left Xuyang, she packed up and prepared to go to the location for the filming. In the corridor, she ran into Xia Xicheng and Chen Liu who had just returned from morning exercise in the hotel gym.

All three of them have roles to play in this location shoot.

Young Master Xia was finally punished by his family after being as stubborn as a donkey for refusing to get married for a long time. His agency received clear instructions from the top - don't care about the life and death of this brat, which naturally included stopping sending cars to pick him up when traveling.

Old Master Xia was just waiting for this spoiled brat to get fed up and run home pitifully to beg for mercy, and finally obey his orders obediently.

Obviously, Master Xia couldn't bring himself to say that he was being "exiled" by economic sanctions, so he wasn't on the list of people who were scheduled to take the bus. As a second-generation rich man, he usually had his own sports car to drive wherever he went, so he wouldn't bother to squeeze into the bus with everyone else.

Now, there was not even a bus to take. Young Master Xia was so worried that several hairs fell out. When Chen Liu found out, he said he could go with them in his car.

Xia Xicheng refused outright at that time, because he was afraid that if the city gate caught fire, it would affect Chen Liuge, who was kind enough to help him and take care of him. He knew his old man's personality and temper. He was always the head of the family who had the final say. In addition, it seemed that he was determined to arrange the marriage this time. If he got anxious and angry, he would do something small.

Xia Xicheng was afraid that the gun would be pointed at the innocent Chen Liuge and cause trouble for him, but he was still very loyal at the critical moment.

but!

but!

If this person was his sister! Sheng Yuan! Then it would be completely, totally different! !

Are you kidding! The eldest daughter of the Sheng family! Even if the old man is really old, he will be angry and confused! He will never dare to do anything to Miss Sheng!

Not only will he not do anything to Sheng Yuan, he will even remind Xia Xicheng, the bad boy, not to get along well with Miss Sheng and become friends with her and build a good relationship with her.

In short, at the very least, in a word, don’t offend them!!

…

Facing Young Master Xia's eyes that were flickering and full of pleading tears, and he would immediately turn emo if his sister said the word "leak".

The girl half-closed her eyelids and glanced at him coldly with her almond-shaped eyes. Her voice came from the white mask and she said something.

"Can."

Young Master Xia cheered so loudly that he even skipped his nap after morning exercise. He ignored Chen Liu who said he had a car but didn't want to use it, and packed up the car in no time.

The two of them got into Sheng Yuan's Rolls-Royce Cullinan together.

Even though Young Master Xia had 'once' owned several cool supercars, he still had to sigh after getting in the car.

Uncle Sheng is truly a daughter slave.

He bought any expensive car and registered them all in his daughter's name. He was also considerate and provided two drivers who could take turns on duty.

Unlike the old man in his family! If he is not happy, he will not say a word! He will either suspend his card or confiscate his house and car, and he would rather let him live on the street and eat steamed buns!

Many times he wondered if he had picked it up from the trash can.

…

** Young Master Xia closed his eyes and leaned back on the small rattan chair under the parasol, comfortably accepting the 'baptism' of the warm and bright morning light.

The cell phone in my pocket suddenly rang.

He opened it and saw, hey, there it was, Cao Cao's old man.

To be precise, it was a WeChat video call from his old man.

Xia Xicheng guessed the reason for the call, and lazily reached out and swiped the green button like an old man.

As soon as the call was connected, an angry face came into view, accompanied by an angry roar -

"I've already informed your friends a long time ago, they definitely don't dare to lend it to you!!"

"Tell me! Where did you get the car? When did you buy it?!"

Xia Xicheng's father probably just finished a morning meeting in the company. He was wearing a suit and tie with a grumpy face. In the video, there was a secretary beside him. The male secretary leaned over and reminded the boss one or two words in his ear.

The old man became visibly more irritable, his two beards were flying with anger, he could go to XJ to sell grilled lamb skewers!

"You little brat! A Cullinan, huh? Even your brother can't drive this car!!"

He asked sternly, "Tell me, where did you get the money? Did you commit any crime? Tell me the truth! I will call the police and have you arrested! Lock you up!"

Xia Xicheng crossed his legs and watched his father talk lazily before he raised his eyebrows and said proudly.

"Guess what, if you guess it right I'll call you daddy."

“…”

"I guess you're just a little bastard! I'm actually your father!! You're making me so mad! You're filming, right? I'll come over and beat you to death, you disobedient little bastard!"

"Why did I give birth to you in the first place? It would be better to give birth to a safe that can help me manage the money in the bank!"

"Secretary! Arrange a car! I'm going to beat him up right now!"

"Hey, hey, hey, stop it, Dad. I was wrong, isn't that ok!?"

When Xia Xicheng saw that his father was really angry and was going to fight for real, he panicked and confessed hastily.

"I, I didn't do anything bad! The car belongs to the Sheng family! I just took a ride!"

His father didn't react for a moment, and asked with a sidelong glance, "Which Sheng family?"

"Which Sheng family is there in Jing City?!"

“…”

“…”

As soon as Xia Xicheng finished speaking, the air was silent for two minutes. The father and son stared at each other through the video call on their cell phone screens.

Father Xia, who had prepared a lot of angry sermons, moved his lips for a long time and finally said something.

"You, how do you, little bastard, know someone from the Sheng family?"

Xia Xicheng: "Sheng Yuan and I are filming in the same crew."

“…”

"...So it's Miss Sheng." Father Xia muttered, then nodded blankly, no longer showing the look as if he must reward Xia Xicheng with a meal of 'stir-fried pork with bamboo sticks' today.

He frowned and said in a sour tone.

"...Good boy, you have found the right person."

"Remember, don't talk nonsense in front of others, especially - don't follow that group of people in making trouble about the gossip that was spread before."

The "gossip" in Father Xia's words refers to -
