Thinking of this, Sheng Yeting tightened his arms, and a feeling of distress filled his heart.
For a moment, he just wanted to love this woman well and protect her forever.
Throughout the night, Sheng Yeting guarded Xia Xingcheng, making Xia Xingcheng not so scared because of the nightmare.
However, the shock of being deceived and the confusion about the future still made Xia Xingcheng toss and turn all night long, making her sleep very uneasy.
She has always been a relatively optimistic person, and has never been as confused about the future and the way forward as she is now.
Thinking of all the things that happened today, Xia Xingcheng couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly in his heart. It seemed that he would have to make a decision soon.
The next morning, looking at his two big dark circles in the mirror, Xia Xingcheng felt a little regretful.
Why did she have to suffer from insomnia for so long
She can no longer hesitate about things that have clearly been decided. How can she meet people like this
Xia Xingcheng lingered upstairs for a while, deliberately covering some foundation under her eyes to make herself look better.
downstairs.
Sheng Yeting was having breakfast downstairs. Hearing the movement on the stairs, he couldn't help but look back at Xia Xingcheng.
When he saw Xia Xingcheng's face with light makeup, his eyes paused for a second, and then he continued eating as if nothing had happened.
Xia Xingcheng couldn't guess what Sheng Yeting was thinking, so she could only walk downstairs awkwardly and sit next to him.
Xia Xingcheng found that she seemed to be somewhat used to having dinner with Sheng Yeting and Xiaobao's family every morning.
"There is something going on in the company, so I have to go to the company." Xia Xingcheng said hesitantly.
Sheng Yeting glanced at Xia Xingcheng lightly, seeming to be quite satisfied with Xia Xingcheng's attitude, and his expression could not help but soften a little.
"Okay, please pay attention to your health. If you have something to do, don't be anxious to go tomorrow. You don't look good today."
Sheng Yeting looked at Xia Xingcheng's face and said.
Xia Xingcheng knew that Sheng Yeting wanted to go tomorrow, so she didn't refute it and decided to go tomorrow.
She couldn't go to work with big black circles under her eyes, wondering what was wrong with her.
Before Sheng Yeting left, he handed a bunch of keys in his hand to Xia Xingcheng.
Looking at the object in his hand, Xia Xingcheng was surprised: "What is this?" Xia Xingcheng asked doubtfully.
"The key to my study."
After Sheng Yeting finished speaking, he kissed Xia Xingcheng's forehead affectionately, just like a normal couple would do before going out.
Xia Xingcheng was slightly stunned and stared blankly in the direction Sheng Yeting left.
Why did he give me the key? And...why is my heart beating so fast
Xia Xingcheng tried her best to suppress her heart that was about to jump out of her chest, and decided to have a good sleep before she fainted.
Xia Xingcheng was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, replaying everything that happened yesterday and this morning over and over in her mind.
All of this made her feel depressed, and she was still a little sleepy.
"Ah, Xia Xingcheng shouted and sat up suddenly.
Xia Xingcheng stood up and took several deep breaths before her slightly red face became even redder.
Xia Xingcheng calmed down for a while, and when she saw the key left by Sheng Yeting next to her, she suddenly wanted to go in and take a look.
"Go read some books."
Xia Xingcheng said to himself, as if this way, his thoughts would not be spied on.
Sheng Yeting's study was very grand. After Xia Xingcheng walked in and looked at the decorated study, she could only describe it in four words at this moment.
"It's hard to describe!"
How should I put it, it was the same as all the study rooms she had seen. The difference was that Sheng Yeting's study room did not have many books in it, it was just a more comfortable sofa.
Xia Xingcheng picked up a book and sat down on Sheng Yeting's sofa to read it, her mood rarely calming down.
At the same time, she also knew very well in her heart that this was only the short time she had left here.
The content in the book was like a book from heaven. Xia Xingcheng felt sleepy after reading it for a while. Just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
Xia Xingcheng looked up and saw Mother Chen walking in respectfully.
"Young Madam, Madam and Miss Liang Fengyue are here as guests. Let's go out to greet her."
Ma Chen said, looking at Xia Xingcheng, she seemed very complicated.
Xia Xingcheng was surprised, but then he thought that Mrs. Sheng was also here, so no wonder he asked her to go out to greet her.
Xia Xingcheng thought this, but after seeing Ma Chen's embarrassed look, she already understood.
"Okay, Mom Chen, I'll go right away."
After Xia Xingcheng finished speaking, he put down the book in his hand, straightened his appearance a little, and then went downstairs.
Downstairs, Qin Pei turned his back to Mother Chen and seemed to be talking about something. Before Xia Xingcheng had time to listen carefully, she saw Liang Fengyue looking in her direction.
"Sister Xingcheng, long time no see."
Although Liang Fengyue said softly, the cold light bursting out of her eyes with unknown meaning seemed to be able to break a person into pieces.
Xia Xingcheng felt uncomfortable all over, but she didn't want to confront Liang Fengyue head-on.
"Aunt, you're here. I wasn't feeling very well just now, so I didn't have time to greet you."
"Ms. Liang, you can sit down wherever you like when you come. Mother Chen, please entertain me well."
After saying that, Xia Xingcheng turned around and prepared to leave. It wasn't that she didn't know etiquette, but since what happened yesterday, she really couldn't face these people.
Qin Pei was not willing to obey, and he was even more angry when he saw that Xia Xingcheng didn't take her seriously. She couldn't help but snorted: "Mother Chen, did you see that this is the person who was disciplined by Ye Ting?"
Xia Xingcheng paused before leaving, but swallowed back her anger.
She no longer wants to worry too much about these people.
Unexpectedly, Liang Fengyue continued to say from behind: "Sister Xingcheng, what do you look like? Don't you know your identity?"
Xia Xingcheng couldn't help but turn around and look at Liang Fengyue coldly: "I don't need you to tell me who I am, so who do you think I am?"
Even though her current identity is not recognized by the Sheng family, her relationship with Sheng Yeting is not that simple. What does it have to do with this woman.
Liang Fengyue glanced at Xia Xingcheng with disdain and said proudly: "Feng Yue can't control her, but of course she can in the future, because she will be Mrs. Sheng who is being married by the Sheng family's matchmaker."
Such a protective look is very obvious.
When Xia Xingcheng saw such a battle, he already understood that Qin Pei had brought Liang Fengyue to deliberately cause trouble with him.
