Chapter 288: The Favored One
He said indignantly, “How dare she? Is she trying to ruin us?”
Then he put his hands behind his back and grew quiet while simmering in anger.
When Grandmother Sheng heard that, she came over and shook her head. “Haha, she’s getting more and more lawless. Did she ask us for our approval? I don’t care what happens at school, but this business war involves the family’s honor. Has she thought about the consequences?”
“How could she have thought of anything? She grew up in the countryside. She doesn’t even know how to look at the big picture!”
Grandfather Sheng paced back and forth in anger. He could almost imagine getting mocked by all the big shots in the industry. They would say he couldn’t even control a child and allowed this ignorant girl to participate in the business war!
“Did you try to convince her otherwise?” Grandfather Sheng suddenly turned and asked Sheng Yue.
Sheng Yue shook her head. “Cousin seems to have some misunderstanding of me, so she ignores me at school.”
“Just because of what happened last time?” Grandmother Sheng snorted. “Why can’t she be more understanding? She was fine but you were injured and couldn’t go to class for so many days. You suffered so much, yet she wasn’t caring at all. She’s nothing like the rest of our Sheng family.”
Sheng Yue smiled with her head lowered.
At the same time, Sheng An showed up at Sheng Yang’s house.
It was Sheng Yuxi who opened the door. Upon seeing Sheng An, he snapped. “Why are you here again?”
Sheng An had been coming to his house more frequently recently. Since he wasn’t allowed to live there, he often came over to visit.
Sheng Yuxi was afraid Sheng An was here to fight for his sister’s favor.
It was already difficult enough for him. He was far inferior to his second brother, but now he was also almost losing to Sheng An, this little brat.
“Cousin, Cousin…” As soon as Sheng An entered the house, he called out to Sheng Yang, eagerly looking around for her.
“Stop shouting.” Sheng Yuxi scratched his head, irritated.
At this time, Sheng Yang happened to walk down the spiral wooden stairs. Her steps were light and graceful. She was wearing a white dress that made her look ethereal. The skirt of the dress was layered.
Sheng An rubbed his eyes hard, thinking he was seeing a fairy.
When Sheng Yang saw Sheng An there, she wasn’t surprised. She walked straight to the refrigerator, opened the door, and got a bottle of milk. At the sound of the refrigerator door opening, a person suddenly appeared in the piano room on the second floor. He smiled, his gentle gaze seemingly lethal. “Sister…”
His voice was very pleasant, like the sound of a zither. “You’re not allowed to drink cold things.”
Before Sheng Yang could say anything, he stuck out his tongue.
The next second, Sheng Hanjing came down and gave Sheng Yang some warm milk.
Sheng An eagerly followed Sheng Yang. “Cousin, thank you. I think the math problems you gave me last time were very interesting. They opened the door to a new world for me.”
Sheng Yuxi listened, his face darkening as his eyebrows twitched.
Sheng An, you’re spouting lies to please my sister, aren’t you?
“Oh?” This piqued Sheng Yang’s interest, which was why Sheng An brought it up.
Sheng Yang looked like a fairy, but in fact, she was very old-fashioned and boring. She only read books and did test questions.
She liked it when people talked about her favorite topics.
“Wait here.” Sheng Yang smiled happily before going upstairs.
Sheng An was stunned*. Could it be…*
