am2_1 Chapter 4 Get lost, Woman!

Sheng Shinian's expression was icy-cold and he had a grand demure.

He could not touch any woman but her, and yet she had to walk into the wrong room. He did not think that it was purely coincidental.

He would investigate the truth, but before that, he had to make sure that she would stay by his side and serve as an antidote.

This was the price that she needed to pay!

After hearing what he had said, Bai Xixi was so shocked that she froze and did not know what to do.

He was the noble Chief of the Capital. Given his authority and looks, what kind of woman could he not have? And yet he wanted her, an engaged woman, and technically his niece, to be his lover?

Thinking about her relationship with him, she gritted her teeth.

"No!" It was her first time and it had purely been a mistake. How could she possibly have done it intentionally? Besides, he was the one at fault, so why was she the one being punished?

Hearing her resolute and decisive voice, he lifted his big hand. Then, his long fingers touched her lips and gently brushed against them.

"Woman, you should know that I am not discussing this with you."

"Also, what do you think Sheng Zixiao will do after he finds out that you slept with his Ninth Uncle?"

There was a thin callus on his index finger. It was the sign of a successful man. His action was neither gentle nor harsh, and yet Bai Xixi felt as if a cold, sharp knife would cut her lips anytime.

It was dangerous, too dangerous!

His focused and deep gaze showed that he was not joking with her at all.

Bai Xixi suddenly felt defeated. She had forgotten that he was Sheng Shinian, a man above mere mortals.

In his world, there was no right or wrong. Whatever he said was the answer.

How was she qualified to say no to him?

"Thud..." At this moment, a powerful footstep was heard clearly.

There was no time!

If Sheng Zixiao, who hated her a lot, saw this scene, she would definitely become the laughing stock of the whole Capital and even the whole country. This would only make the Bai family even more embarrassed.

Meanwhile, if Grandpa Sheng found out that she had had an affair with his youngest son on whom he doted the most, he would definitely be very disappointed with her.

Then, she would end up being alone and having no one to help her. There would be no one to help her pay her family's debts and her father would die because his medicine source would be cut off.

Therefore, she had no choice at all!

Bai Xixi bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly.

"Okay. Just for half a year, and you can't tell anyone." She basically squeezed the sentence through her teeth.

Grandpa Sheng had said that after half a year, the Bai family would be able to overcome their obstacles, the company would start to gain profits, and her father would be done with surgery. Hence, she just needed to hang on for the next six months.

Six months later, she would leave him immediately.

Sheng Shinian hadn't been expecting this woman to be so daring as to even raise a condition of a time limit.

He was displeased. He loosened his grip around her waist and said arrogantly, "Initially I only wanted it to be two months, but since you've said six months, I'll satisfy your request."

Bai Xixi was shocked.

She almost passed out from annoyance at her own foolishness!

Sheng Shinian said in a low voice, "Remember, I don't like people touching my things, even Sheng Zixiao." Then, he pulled her collar up and turned to leave.

Bai Xixi held her breath intensely and clenched her fists tightly by her sides.

This man was so overbearing! They had just started and he was already making demands!

She was now feeling the terror of this decision...

"I called you for so long and you didn't respond. What are you doing?" Suddenly, an interrogative voice was heard.

When Bai Xixi saw Sheng Zixiao, she quickly lowered her head guiltily. She did not know how to face their relationship anymore.

Initially, she had married him for her father and the company's sake, but now it looked like she could not do so anymore.

She hesitated over what to say, but Sheng Zixiao did not even give her a chance to talk.

Before she could say anything, he asked, "What did Ninth Uncle say?"

All he cared about was whether Ninth Uncle had punished the woman.

Hearing him mention Ninth Uncle, Bai Xixi's heart tightened and her voice became unnatural and panicky. "Ninth Uncle said... it's... it's fine."

Sheng Zixiao's face darkened. Ninth Uncle had not chased this disgusting woman away? This was not his style of doing things. Could it be that Grandfather had also said something to him?

When he thought about how his plan had failed, he was not reconciled and he glanced at her with disgust and left right away.

It was as if each extra glance at her made her more repellant.

Bai Xixi watched as his arrogant figure disappeared. Then, she breathed a small sigh.

Forget it. She was so tired tonight, she should just leave everything else to tomorrow.

After leaving the Sheng family, she took a taxi home.

Half an hour later, the taxi stopped at a corner of a remote street.

Bai Xixi organized her thoughts and opened the door to get out.

Because she had no money, she had rented a remote and worn out residential building. Looking at the steep and uneven path ahead, she took off her high heels and walked home barefoot.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw her stepmother Wang Shuyun sitting on the small sofa. She looked very worried.

She walked towards her and asked politely, "Aunty, why are you still awake?"

When Wang Shuyun saw Bai Xixi, she quickly stood up and walked towards her.

She asked curiously, "How did it go? Did you succeed? Did Sheng Zixiao use protection? Did you listen to my advice and take fertility drugs? It would be nice if you could conceive a Sheng baby in just one try!"

When Bai Xixi heard those words, her face turned pale immediately.

She had taken the drugs and Sheng Shinian had not used any protection. She wanted to die!

"I have to go out for a while."

After saying that, she left in a panic.

Wang Shuyun grabbed hold of her and her expression suddenly changed.

She asked angrily, "Why are you going out in the middle of the night? Is it because nothing happened with Sheng Zixiao and you don't dare to tell me the truth?"

Bai Xixi did not want to answer this question, nor did she dare to tell Wang Shuyun the truth. Right now, all she wanted was to go and buy birth control pills.

However, before she had even taken two steps forward, her body was pushed back heavily and she fell onto the sofa.

Wang Shuyun looked at her guilty countenance and knew that the plan must have failed.

She scolded her angrily, "Bai Xixi, look at our situation now! Are you still thinking those unrealistic thoughts? Are you still waiting for your first love to come back and help you?"

Bai Xixi's leg hit against the sofa and she felt a wave of immense pain. The words 'first love' cut deep.

She opened her mouth and said, "I didn't, I..."

"You didn't? Then why have you two yet to do anything even though you've already been engaged for half a month? Will you only be happy when our creditor kills us with his knife and your dad dies because he has no more medicine?"

"I live in this damned house day and night. There's always cockroaches and mice. How long do you want me to live like this for?"

"Go and please Sheng Zixiao right now! You are not allowed to come back if you don't succeed!"

Wang Shuyun scolded her hysterically.

After that, she directly grabbed Bai Xixi's wrist and dragged her outside.

She had great strength and Bai Xixi frowned in pain.

"It hurts! It's so late at night, I won't be able to enter the Sheng's front door. I'll go in the morning."

Everyone knew that the Sheng family had tight security.

When Wang Shuyun heard this, she let go of her and pointed at her head fiercely.

"What a loser! If you still don't succeed tomorrow, don't come back at all!"

After scolding her, she entered her room and slammed the door heavily.

Bai Xixi was angry and helpless. Forget about her failing tomorrow, she would not succeed if she tried for a lifetime.

Right now, the only way was to talk to Sheng Zixiao and settle on a fake engagement. They would not interfere with one another and after the company started to gain profits, she would return Grandpa Sheng his money and terminate the engagement.

As for Grandpa Sheng's kindness, she could only try to repay him to her best abilities.

Bai Xixi secretly went to the pharmacy to buy birth control pills and took them before going back home.

Bright and early the next morning, she specially bought Sheng Zixiao's favorite breakfast and headed to Sheng Group.

When she had just reached the lobby, she was unexpectedly barred from entry.

"I'm sorry Miss Bai. Mr. Sheng said that you and dogs can't enter." The lead security guard looked deadly serious and his tone was filled with disdain.

Bai Xixi's face turned stiff. Sheng Zixiao had actually lumped her in with stray dogs? He was really embarrassing her.

Fortunately, she was not intending to marry him anymore.

She pursed her lips and said, "In that case, is Mr. Sheng here? I have some important things to talk to him about."

The security guard glanced at Bai Xixi with spite. He wanted to ignore her completely.

"Mr. Sheng has yet to arrive and he will not meet you. You're such a thick-skinned woman. Please leave immediately. Don't tarnish our company's image."

While saying that, he raised his hand and shoved her hard.

Bai Xixi hadn't been expecting the security guard to get rough with her. She was caught off guard and fell backward onto the floor. She felt a wave of intense pain in her elbow and frowned uncontrollably.

Seeing her like this, the security guard scoffed, "Pfft. Mr. Sheng is not even here, what's the point of pretending to be weak? You're just a daughter of a rich family that is now in hot water and yet you still want to become a phoenix. Disgusting!"

The other security guards all crossed their arms and said contemptuously, "Exactly! Mr. Sheng will not even look at you. You're punching above your own weight!"

"Get lost now, get lost! Don't force us to throw you out."

When had Bai Xixi ever been so aggrieved? She was feeling extremely horrible.

She gritted her teeth and stood up. She was just about to refute what they had said when suddenly they all heard a beep. A limited-edition Pagani had just been parked arrogantly right next to the security guard post.

When the security guards saw the car, their faces fell immediately. They quickly formed a straight line and bowed down in unison.

"President."

"President?

"Sheng Shinian?"

Bai Xixi turned her head and saw the dark rear window slowly winding down.

Inside the car, Sheng Shinian was wearing a tailor-made suit with a neat tie.

Even when he was just sitting there quietly, his aura was still very strong. He was like a noble emperor.

Seeing him, Bai Xixi's heart trembled fiercely. She lowered her head out of embarrassment and helplessness.

Sheng Shinian's profound, unfathomable gaze swept across Bai Xixi's body and he shot a fierce gaze at the guards.

He questioned in a cold voice, "What happened?"

The lead security guard shivered with fear.

The President hated chaos the most, especially in front of the company's entrance. This woman was going to get him killed!

He explained hesitantly, "President, this shameless woman is looking for the Vice President and even tried to barge in. She wouldn't listen no matter how much I scolded her, so I pushed her."

He added more details into the story and tried to push the blame onto Bai Xixi as much as he could.

"Yes! We only got physical because she disregarded the rules." The other security all knew the President's temper very well and echoed the first guard's statement. They were excited to see the terrible outcome of this woman.

Bai Xixi clenched her fists tightly. How was she shameless? When had she tried to 'barge'?

This time around, Sheng Shinian might not let her go...

While she was panicking, the man said something unexpected in his icy-cold voice, "Go to the finance department to settle your payment. You guys don't need to come to work anymore."

Bai Xixi's eyes bulged open in shock.

She was not an employee there, so when he talked about settling the payment, he was talking to them?

The security guards felt like they had been struck by a peal of thunder and their faces turned horribly pale.

What was going on? Shouldn't Bai Xixi be the one getting chased away? Why was the President getting rid of them?

"President..." They started to open their mouths and plead for mercy.

"Get lost," Sheng Shinian commanded mercilessly in his sharp voice.

The security guards were so terrified by him that their legs turned to jelly. They dared not say another word and started scrambling away frantically.

Bai Xixi froze on the spot and batted her eyelids repeatedly.

He had been so ruthless to the company's security guards. Now that he was done dealing with them, was he going to deal with her?

"Come here, get in the car."
