Chapter 47 They really became a family of three.
Chapter 47 They really became a family of three.
Sheng Tingwang's face darkened.
To the driver, "Drive, go home."
"Yes, Third Master."
Sheng Ting ignored everyone.
Wen Shuyi had nothing to say.
She added Xia Yini on WeChat and subtly inquired about her relationship with Sheng Tingwang.
[Yi Ni, Third Master said you two are getting engaged next month, is that true?]
Xia Yini didn't mince words and said directly, "[Yes, it was Grandpa's decision. I didn't expect him to agree. He's a really good person, not cold at all, and very gentle. Shu Yi, you really can't judge a book by its cover. He's such a really, really, really good person. I feel like I fell in love with him in an instant.]"
Wen Shu also held his forehead.
Sheng Tingwang is indeed the kind of person who can be easily loved.
He is meticulous in his work and polite and kind in his dealings with others.
He's a former soldier, a decent person, and now he has so much wealth. Whoever marries him will enjoy endless blessings in the future.
She felt a strange unease, the source of which she couldn't quite pinpoint.
I don't know if it was jealousy or not, but Sheng Tingwang fell in love with Xia Yini at first sight.
Or perhaps it's because she still can't forget her old feelings for him.
Leaning against the car door, she held her phone and continued texting Xia Yini: "[Yini, I have a favor to ask of you.]"
[Shuyi, just tell me what's wrong. Given our relationship, I'll definitely help if I can.]
Wen Shuyi took a deep breath in her heart.
She quickly typed, "[Once you and Third Master are engaged, you can ask him to let me take the adopted child back to Bincheng. You two will definitely have your own child soon, and this child isn't really suitable here. To be frank, it's not good for the child's development. You see...]"
[Of course! You're absolutely right. We'll get married right after our engagement. If we already have a child, it really wouldn't be suitable to adopt another baby. Shuyi, you've thought this through very well. Don't worry, I'll talk to Tingwang about it.]
Wen Shuyi: [Yi Ni, you're so wonderful! Wishing you both a long and happy life together.]
[Thank you, Shuyi. Sending love.]
Wen Shuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Her expression visibly relaxed.
The car stopped halfway through the journey.
Zhang Lun sent over some documents.
"Third Master, here's what you wanted."
Wen Shuyi craned his neck to take a look; it was some authorization documents for handling property transfers.
The fact that he's in such a hurry to complete the transfer of ownership suggests that Sheng Tingwang has taken a liking to Xia Yini.
I want to cut ties with her as soon as possible.
A jolt of electricity shot through my heart.
Wen Shuyi pounded his chest heavily.
She wasn't sad.
Why does my heart feel uncomfortable?
"Come and sign."
Sheng Tingwang personally handed the documents that needed to be signed to Wen Shuyi.
He personally pointed out the places where she needed to sign, one by one, saying, "Don't sign here, or it'll cause trouble again."
"oh."
Wen Shuyi didn't pay much attention to the contents of the contract.
Anyway, the house isn't his own, so it's only natural for Sheng Tingwang to want it back.
She has nothing to lose.
What is she sad about?
After taking a few deep breaths, her heart felt much better.
I don't know why I need to sign so many authorization forms to complete a transfer of ownership.
Wen Shuyi's handwriting became increasingly illegible.
Finally, I finished signing the papers.
"I'm so tired." She rubbed her wrists. "Are you all better now?"
Sheng Tingwang carefully checked the signed documents and said to Zhang Lun, "Find Director Wang, I need to get the certificate immediately."
"Understood, I'll take care of it right away."
Zhang Lun is gone.
The car continued driving home.
Aunt Wang helped take care of the baby today.
When we got back, Xiao Duoduo was taking a nap.
Wen Shuyi was quite tired. After taking off her shoes, she prepared to go to her room to sleep.
Aunt Wang noticed that Sheng Tingwang hadn't returned and was curious about what kind of banquet it was. "Xiao Wen, is there dancing at the banquet? Look how tired you are, you can't even straighten your back."
"No, it's just that those high heels really weren't suitable. Aunt Wang, leave the baby to me, you should go and rest too."
"OK."
After Sheng Ting escorted Wen Shuyi down, he instructed the driver to take the car to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Zhang Lun hurriedly handed him the marriage certificate, saying, "Third Master, it's still fresh."
The words "Marriage Certificate" are displayed in large characters.
Fiery and dazzling.
It was as red as a beam of light.
He never imagined that he would become Wen Shuyi's legal husband and wife in this way.
Perhaps it was just a momentary impulse.
Perhaps there is still love.
Perhaps... he just wanted to keep her by his side and make her suffer.
Perhaps he just wanted a legal identity so he could do something to her.
three years ago.
Here, filled with excitement and happiness, he looked forward to the future that belonged to him and her.
I was let down.
Being manipulated.
They were played for a fool.
Ultimately, I didn't get the marriage certificate.
Now that he has the marriage certificate in hand, he has long lost his original expectations.
Sheng Tingwang put the marriage certificate into his pocket. "Don't let Wen Shuyi know about this for now. Also, has Duoduo's household registration been completed?"
"I slept with Third Master and used the name you gave me, Lu Qiaonian."
Now, we're truly a family of three.
Why is he unhappy?
Perhaps he still resents Wen Shuyi for his insincerity back then.
For the past three years, he has tried to convince himself that her betrayal and retaliation were solely due to his abrupt departure years ago.
She said that loving him was an act.
Her pleasure in bed was also an act.
What is real?
He doesn't even know what's real anymore.
"Third Master, Old Master Xia's personal bodyguard just called to ask if there's anything they need to prepare for your engagement to Miss Xia next month?"
"Grandpa Sheng's condition has been deteriorating. This engagement is a way to bring him good luck. He raised me and wanted to see me get married. He wanted to give my father an explanation. I don't want him to die with his eyes open."
Sheng Tingwang felt as if he was constantly repaying favors.
Xu Jiagang has just finished paying it off.
They have to repay the Sheng family again.
"Tell the Xia family that they don't need to prepare anything. The engagement banquet will be held at the Sheng family's house. They can just go through the motions."
"I understand." Zhang Lun said worriedly, "Since it's to bring good luck to Old Master Sheng, this engagement can't be faked. Now that you and Miss Wen have registered your marriage, it might be difficult to explain to the Xia family."
"Grandpa Xia has always wanted to return to his ancestral home to rebuild his old house, but that land has already been sold. Its value is not low and has been rising in recent years. The Xia family can no longer afford it. You should personally go to Qicheng and buy the land back. When the Xia family gets the land, they shouldn't say anything."
Zhang Lun: "Okay."
Zhang Lun went to run an errand.
He parked his car on the side of the road and didn't go home until night fell.
Dodo woke up.
Wen Shuyi was feeding him.
The little guy was clearly a bit afraid of this strange uncle.
The strange uncle always took him to do things that scared him.
She couldn't help but snuggle closer to Wen Shuyi.
"Is Duoduo scared? It's okay. He just looks scary, but he loves Duoduo the most."
Children don't understand.
Holding Wen Shuyi tightly, he wouldn't let go.
Sheng Tingwang didn't say anything and went back to his room.
After Wen Shuyi coaxed Xiao Duoduo to sleep.
I'm wondering if I should go see Sheng Tingwang. He seems a bit unhappy. Maybe... the property transfer isn't going smoothly?
The door to Sheng Tingwang's bedroom was ajar.
Wen Shuyi gently knocked on the door. "Third Master, Aunt Wang left you some food. Would you like it heated up?"
