Chapter 17 Qin Sui's Waterloo

Sheng Jun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What do you mean your Li Xiaoya? The girl belongs to her parents."

Sheng Yuxiao said: "She doesn't have parents."

Sheng Jun was speechless, and then he taught her: "You can't talk like that, it's too disrespectful to the girl."

Sheng Yuxiao didn't respond to his father.

He was really thinking about taking Li Xiaoya away from that small mountain village...but it was hard to say it now.

Li Qingqing was also very anxious. She didn't expect Sheng Yuxiao to value Li Xiaoya so much.

She lowered her head to hide the changes in her eyes, and then asked softly: "Brother was injured to protect Li Xiaoya?"

Sheng Yuxiao sat back on the bed, glanced at Li Qingqing, and said in a slightly cold tone, changing his previous anxiety: "Who told you this?"

This cold, even condescending tone made Li Qingqing think of Xu Qiulai again.

This mother and son are equally arrogant.

Li Qingqing's heart tightened and she said, "Everyone says so."

Sheng Yuxiao suddenly turned his head and looked at Sheng Jun: "Do you think so too?"

Sheng Jun shook his head: "That's your own business. What does it have to do with the little girl? Of course, if you really protected her, that's a good thing. It means that you have finally grown up a little, have a sense of responsibility, and know how to protect the weak."

Sheng Yuxiao's expression relaxed a little, and he asked Sheng Jun: "Are you willing to let me go back and continue to protect the weak?"

Shengjun said, "Call your mother first. She is very worried about you."

Sheng Yuxiao paused and immediately asked the staff for his cell phone.

He dialed Xu Qiulai's number. While waiting for the call to be answered, he turned around and said to Li Qingqing, "Don't call me brother."

Li Qingqing clenched her fists, almost unable to control her expression.

She could only turn her head to look at Sheng Jun, hoping that the gentle and elegant Mr. Sheng would speak for her. But Sheng Jun didn't say anything, just waved at her, and then the two of them walked out of the ward, leaving Sheng Yuxiao alone to talk to her mother.

"Yuxiao is just like this. He always clearly distinguishes between relatives and strangers and does not allow anyone to cross the boundaries he draws," said Sheng Jun.

[Amazing dad! So tolerant of his son’s personality and preferences]

[Actually, it’s good for Mr. Sheng to do this. When he grows up, he won’t become a central air conditioner, and he won’t hurt girls’ hearts.]

[1. I hate the kind of men who can't control themselves if any girl calls them brother. Why do they have so many sisters? Roll your eyes]

[Li Qingqing seems a little bit tactless]

[Forget it, I’m still young]

Li Qingqing tried her best to suppress her trembling body and asked Sheng Jun, "What should I do so that my brother will like me?"

Sheng Jun narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why do you have to make him like you?"

Li Qingqing was startled by his gaze, but she still said cautiously and pitifully, "I hope everyone likes me. I'm afraid, afraid that others don't like me."

[Oh, so you have a people-pleasing personality? That's really pitiful.]

Sheng Jun nodded: "I understand your idea, but... Yu Xiao's personality may make it difficult."

Why? Li Qingqing gritted her teeth secretly.

On the other side, Ms. Xu Qiulai persuaded her son with a few words: "It's best to wait until the wound is no longer visible before going back."

"Mother, I'm not that weak."

"Have you considered Li Xiaoya?"

"What do you mean?"

"When you were injured, she must have been very sad, and she might have blamed herself. If you go back now, the obvious wounds on your body will remind her again and again that you were injured. Have you ever thought about how sad she would be?"

"..." Sheng Yuxiao sighed, "I understand. I will take care of her before going back. But Qin Sui, that idiot, can't take good care of Li Xiaoya at all."

Xu Qiulai did not correct his wording, but just reminded him of one thing: "In the years before you came, Li Xiaoya came alone."

Sheng Yuxiao was speechless.

After a long while, he couldn't help but say, "Aren't I feeling sorry for her?"

"Has your dad arrived?" Xu Qiulai asked.

"Here we are, with a kid. It's so annoying. He keeps calling me brother."

"Be a gentleman to girls." Xu Qiulai paused, then continued, "If you are worried, ask your father to buy some gifts for you and bring them back to Li Xiaoya. She will be very happy."

Sheng Yuxiao finally relaxed completely: "Mother, I understand."

He put away his phone and never mentioned going back again.

The barrage was also shocked at this moment.

[I am amazed by Ms. Xu’s methods]

[He is really good at persuading people]

After a while, Sheng Jun came back.

Sheng Yuxiao roughly conveyed what his mother meant to Sheng Jun.

A big shot of Sheng Jun's level just smiled good-naturedly after hearing what he said, and said, "Okay, I'll go buy it. What do you want to give to Li Xiaoya?"

"She must have new clothes, new shoes, and one or two hats, otherwise her ears will freeze in winter. Buy her two new umbrellas. Her lunch box must be replaced. Install a light for her, and she must have a heater, right? New stationery, a new schoolbag, her cloth bag has holes in it after washing..." Sheng Yuxiao leaned lazily against the head of the bed, talking incessantly.

Sheng Jun's forehead was throbbing with veins: "Are you planning to move a street to her?"

“Just move two stores.”

“…”

Sheng Jun was speechless, but he still bought it as his son asked.

Of course, Sheng Jun didn’t go to buy it himself, but assigned the task to his subordinates.

Li Qingqing followed behind, and was so shocked that she couldn't recover yet.

Who is Sheng Yuxiao?

The arrogant devil.

He even remembered clearly that there was a hole in Li Xiaoya's cloth bag, and he took it to heart so much!

The intense jealousy made Li Qingqing's joy when she came here disappear completely in an instant.

The audience couldn't help but sigh:

[Sheng Yuxiao is a bit too doting]

[No way, you really care about Lai Siu-ya? ]

[Uh, but he was so mean to Li Qingqing... This, this, it was obviously Li Qingqing who was exchanged.]

[Li Xiaoya better live up to Mr. Sheng’s care for her]

[You deserve it! Go and see Lai Siu-ya]

Some confused spectators hurried over.

Li Xiaoya had just sorted the different kinds of mushrooms and packed up the eggs, then stared at the big backpack for a while.

She rested her chin on her knees and murmured softly, "We can't go to the city."

[Oh, yes, Sheng Yuxiao said he would take her to the town to sell mushrooms. Now that Sheng Yuxiao is not here, why doesn't she look for Qin Sui? ]

[Damn, look carefully at the mushrooms she sorted out. Chanterelles, porcini, Altissima,... all of them are rare wild edible mushrooms! They are very expensive in the market! You told me that the vegetable collector only gave three yuan for these things? ]

[Ah, Li Xiaoya, please don't sell it, wait for Master Sheng to come back! ]

The barrage was still exciting when Qin Sui suddenly came in from outside the door.

The environment here was terrible, but it was not so unbearable for Qin Sui. He found a big rock outside and sat down, reading a book for the whole afternoon until his stomach started to make hungry sounds.

"Where are you eating?" Qin Sui asked.

Li Xiaoya looked up at him and pointed at the ground.

Qin Sui frowned. Were we going to eat here? He had never experienced such a bad dining environment in his life.

"What to eat?" Qin Sui asked again.

Li Xiaoya told him: "You have to find food for yourself."

Qin Sui suddenly felt absurd: "I will find it myself?"

Li Xiaoya didn't say anything else, leaving him with a cold but furry head.

The barrage was shocking:

[She actually ignored Qin Sui completely! ]

[Li Xiaoya, you are so worthy of Sheng Yuxiao. If Sheng Yuxiao knew that you didn't treat Qin Sui well, wouldn't he be so happy? ]

[Think carefully, is this the first Waterloo that Qin Sui has encountered in his smooth life? ]

For Qin Sui...it is indeed the case.

Although he has a gloomy personality, he has always had strong personal charm and many fans around him. Otherwise, how could he compete with Sheng Yuxiao?

Qin Sui had a good idea when he came. He didn't intend to pay attention to anyone in the village. He wouldn't be as stupid as Sheng Yuxiao to take care of a little girl...

But he didn't expect that the little girl didn't want to pay any attention to him at all.

Qin Sui frowned and thought, forget it, it’s no big deal to skip a meal or two.

Soon, the moon hung above the branches.

The little girl was squatting at the door, counting money in the moonlight?

Qin Sui walked over and asked, "Is this your money? Or is it given by the program team? Can't we use the money to eat?"

Li Xiaoya didn't even turn his head: "No."

Qin Sui changed his tone: "Lend it to me? I can pay you back tenfold."

Li Xiaoya was very firm: "No, I can't afford to support you." She paused and said, "This money is for supporting Sheng Yuxiao."

Qin Sui felt a lump in his throat.

【Hahaha, what a killer kill! 】

[Qin Sui: Why am I suddenly a little jealous of Sheng Yuxiao? ]
