Just then, Shen Peian returned, followed by Zhang Qingge.

The target of his blind date this time was this woman.

Originally, only Pei An's parents were optimistic about Xia Xingyu, but after all, he had been missing for so long. As his parents, how could they allow their son to wait so long?

Although Shen Peian had gone back to tell them the truth about Xia Xingyu's return, the old couple could not believe him.

They thought it was an excuse from Shen Peian, so they insisted on having Zhang Qingge come over to take a look as well, in order to help the two of them develop their relationship.

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing Zhang Meng and the maid sitting on the sofa, Shen Peian frowned, obviously not satisfied.

He recognized both of them. Shen Peian had led his men to rescue the sunken ship in Jincheng three years ago, so he could understand why they wanted to repay the debt of gratitude.

The maid came to his side, and he treated her kindly.

As for Zhang Meng, she treated Xia Xingyu well, and Shen Peian would not treat her unfairly.

"Boss Shen! "Miss Xia was asleep, so I just had a casual chat with her …"

The maid stood up immediately. She was sitting in her usual seat, Shen Peian. It was no wonder that the man looked a bit odd. The maid's face was red with embarrassment. When she was cleaning, she had even moved the blanket away from the seat.

Now, the real face of the sofa was clearly visible.

Zhang Meng raised her eyebrows and looked at the sofa with an unfathomable intention in her heart.

The CEO of a group could actually use DIY cushions, and it was even a portrait of a woman. This was somewhat unexpected for her.

"If Xing Yuyu knew that you sat her under your butt, her face would be very pretty."

Zhang Meng wanted to laugh out loud when she said this, but unfortunately, she did not dare to do so in front of Shen Peian.

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Zi Yun broke out into a cold sweat for Zhang Meng. She was too bold to say such words to Shen Pei An's face.

"…"

The air froze for a few seconds, and the atmosphere dropped to a freezing point.

Xia Xingyu had initially thought that Zhang Meng was with a maid, but she did not expect that she would hear these words. She finally understood why Zhang Meng was trying so hard to get her to return to Quan Cheng.

Everyone had come to Shen Peian's side to repay his kindness, or to help him with his feelings.

Xia Xingyue lightly coughed twice and then walked out from the corner.

"I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

As soon as he said that, Shen Peian sent a look to the maid, telling her to prepare some food. The maid understood and hurried to the kitchen. There was no one in the villa, only the bodyguards and this unknown maid.

When Shen Peian saw Xia Xingyu, his expression softened. However, Zhang Qingge, who was standing next to him, did not look that good.

"Big Sister Xingyu, so you really came back. I didn't believe you at the beginning."

As she spoke, Zhang Qingge walked forward and stretched out her hand to grab Xia Xingyu's hand.

However, Xia Xinyu avoided it without leaving a trace. Even now, she still remembered the look on Zhang Qingge's face when she refused to take her on a mission.

If Jane Lan didn't take her afterwards, perhaps Xia Xingyu would be even more upset and hate him than she was now.

Although she knew that she shouldn't vent her anger and sorrow on others, Xia Xingyu couldn't help but think this way, to do so.

No one was wrong, but neither was Mommy.

"Right."

Xia Xingyu's cold and estranged attitude was no different from throwing a face at Zhang Qingge. Shen Peian could understand Xia Xingyu's actions from the bottom of his heart.

He walked to Xia Xingyu's side and looked down at her.

A moment later, Shen Peian said, "Will you marry me?"

On the way back, he had already bought a marriage proposal ring, and when he went to buy one, Zhang Qingge was a little bit excited. She had been hoping that Xia Xingyu would come back.

Therefore, she thought that Shen Pei An had bought this ring for her.

Only now did Zhang Qingge understand that Shen Peian had never lied to her, that Xia Xingyu had truly returned, and that the man she had admired for so long was really going to propose marriage to Xia Xingyu.

That lucky fellow was not him.

Zhang Qingge's nose was slightly sore and her eyes were aching. She had been staring at Xia Xingyu's expression the whole time. She really wanted to know how happy she was to be valued by Shen Peian.

Things did not turn out as he wished, and the people in the story did not seem to be so easily satisfied.

Xia Xingyu pondered for a moment and spat out two words.

"Nope ~"

When she said those words, she had a lackadaisical look on her face, as if she deserved a beating.

That was Shen Peian's expected answer, so he didn't show too much disappointment.

"Mm, then let's talk about this later."

He was sure that the only woman he would ever marry was Xia Xingyu. No matter how hard she tried to move him, he would never give up.

When they heard that Xia Xingyu had returned, the parents were overjoyed, but at the same time, they also felt somewhat guilty towards Zhang Qingge.

"Qingge, don't be sad. When the time comes, your Uncle Shen and I will introduce you a good one. Don't worry, it's definitely much better than Pei An's."

Although Chen Qian was embarrassed, she didn't dare to show it, so she tried her best to make it sound more logical.

However, Zhang Qingge pouted. She felt wronged.

"Uncle, aunt, I won't make things difficult for you. It's just that before brother Pei An gets married, can I keep him company for a while longer …"

No one could refuse such a request, let alone Zhang Qingge, who had just been injured by Shen Peian.

On the other side of the video, Shen Jingbin's parents hurriedly nodded their heads.

"Sure, I'll ask Payne to keep an eye on some good men for you. If you want anything, you have to tell us. Do you understand?"

Chen Qian knew that this wasn't fair to Zhang Qingge, but now that Xia Xingyu was back, how could Shen Peian be so preoccupied with other women?

She should not have involved herself in this marriage.

But if it wasn't for Zhang Qingge's parents' pressure, from the bottom of her heart, Chen Xi still hoped that her son would wait for Xia Xingyu.

Under Chen Qian's repeated requests, Shen Peian then pulled down Xia Xingyu to video with her.

Facing his mother and father, Xia Xingyu could only feel a little uneasiness in his heart.

"Aunty …"

As soon as she said those two words, Xia Xingyu didn't know what to say. A thousand words stuck in her throat as she once again fell silent.

"You don't need to say anything. I know the bitterness in your heart. There will be us in the future."

The more Chen Qian looked at her, the more she felt like she was looking at the young Ning Xi.

"Xingyu, from now on, you are a member of our Shen family. Although your mother is no longer here, we are sisters … I will definitely not let you suffer any grievances. "
