Don’t. Sheng Jingchen felt that if he really said it, the one digging a dream castle with their toes wouldn't be Shi Wei, but him.
The system thought for a moment and seriously stated, "You didn't ask? It doesn't seem appropriate to let the villain talk about this himself."
"Tongzi. Whose side are you on!" Shi Wei became irked, "Traitor, you actually spoke for Sheng Jingchen!"
System: "..."
The system was speechless and could only shut up.
Because as an artificial mechanical AI, the system didn't understand why Shi Wei felt embarrassed and was digging her toes.
It was just curious. Why was Sheng Jingchen and Shi Wei's affair different from the novel?
Sheng Jingchen pondered about it and felt that he needed to explain, otherwise, Shi Wei would criticize him to the system again.
"After the night of the engagement, I found the family doctor to check you," Sheng Jingchen cleared his throat and tried to speak in a calm and bland tone, "The doctor said that the medicine isn't good and has side effects. After taking it, you will temporarily forget what happened during the medication period, but you will remember it in the future."
Hearing this, Shi Wei's face became even more red.
So it was true. The antidote wasn't the family doctor at all!
So embarrassing. Being a wealthy household plastic couple was enough, why did they get involved in this matter? How could she act like spoiled to Sheng Jingchen in the future? How could she use him to earn the dislike value of the wealthy circle’s heiresses?
System: "Host, don't worry. You will break off the engagement in two and a half months. Then we will go our separate ways. Why do you care about the villain?"
"That makes sense!" Shi Wei thought of the plot in the novel. "In two months or so, Sheng Jingchen will realize his feelings for Xia Duoduo. By then, he will look for his Xia Duoduo and I will be a little rich woman. We will have nothing to do with each other!"
Sheng Jingchen's eyelids jumped when he heard this.
Why did she bring up Xia Duoduo again?
Before in the Ye Family study, Shi Wei said that Xia Duoduo is his white moonlight...
This was nonsense. Sheng Jingchen explained this too, "Shi Wei, I think you have some misunderstandings about the relationship between Xia Duoduo and me."
Sheng Jingchen seriously stated, "The Sheng and Xia families are old friends and Xia Duoduo and I have known each other since childhood. But in my eyes, she is just the daughter of family friend. That's all. Except for occasionally meeting at some banquets, we have never contacted each other privately. She isn't my white moonlight. There is nothing between her and me!"
Shi Wei listened in a daze.
On the surface, he was serious, but in fact, in his heart...
"Tongzi, why did Sheng Jingchen suddenly tell me this?"
"I don't know," the system was more confused than Shi Wei, "He’s actually distancing himself from Xia Duoduo!"
"Ha!" Shi Wei sneered, "Think I haven't read the novel and could be fooled, right? The novel clearly says that the two are each other's first love. Now playing innocent with me here? Ha, as expected, men's mouths are deceiving ghosts!"
Sheng Jingchen: ? ? ?
"Everything I say is true..." Sheng Jingchen was sincere.
"En, en," Shi Wei nodded obediently, "Elder Brother Jingchen, I believe you!"
In her heart: I don't believe you! Not realizing your feelings for the female lead of the novel yet, you deserve the script of chasing your wife to the crematorium! Oh no, it's more than a crematorium, it's simply an urn! After all, you all blackened in the end and didn't successfully chase anything!
Sheng Jingchen: "..."
Sheng Jingchen's voice lacked strength, "We really have nothing..."
Shi Wei's eyes sparkled and she nodded like pounding garlic, "I know, I know, Elder Brother Jingchen! I believe there’s nothing!"
In her heart: Scumbag! What's the use of expressing loyalty? Three months later, you’ll still dump me and get together with Xia Duoduo. Stinky man! Humph!
Sheng Jingchen: "..."
For the first time, he knew what it meant to be unable to defend himself.
There was a temporary parking spot ahead. The airport was in front. Turning left was the direction of Sheng's manor.
Chauffeur Zhang stopped the car and Sheng Jingchen got out of the Rolls-Royce.
"I'm leaving tonight for Dengta Country and will be back in a week," Sheng Jingchen said, "Chauffeur Zhang will take you home."
Sheng Jingchen's Bentley arrived.
Special Assistant Lin got off the Bentley and respectfully opened the door for Sheng Jingchen.
Watching Sheng Jingchen's Bentley go away, Shi Wei remembered... In the novel, Sheng Jingchen was indeed going abroad tonight. In fact, in the novel, Sheng Jingchen didn't attend the Ye Family birthday party at all and went straight to the airport after getting off work.
But in reality, Sheng Jingchen actually went to the Ye Family birthday party and helped her prove her innocence.
Shi Wei suddenly felt that something seemed to be different. But she couldn't figure out what this meant.

Xia Family’s Villa
When Xia Yuanzhou returned to the villa and saw his parents, it was already the next morning.
Last night, Father Xia and Xia Yiwen drank too much because of the foreign client and had no time to go to Old Mister Ye's birthday party. Mother Xia fell asleep during the spa and missed the party.
The next day, the family sat at the dinner table to eat. Everything was normal, as if nothing had happened.
Xia Yuanzhou frowned.
Such a big thing happened last night, why didn't his parents have any reaction? Don't they know?
The nanny served Xia Yuanzhou congee as usual. Xia Yuanzhou was anxious and didn't have the mind to have the congee. He said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, something happened to Shi Wei. She hasn't been home for a week!"
The Xia Family only then noticed that there was one less person at the dinner table.
Shi Wei had already started college when she returned to the Xia Family. Occasionally, she wouldn't go home because of classes and stayed up all night to finish homework. The Xia Family’s members didn't find it strange that she wasn't at home.
"Is Shi Wei living on campus again?" Mother Xia asked, "Is she busy with homework? Really, it's just college homework and she still needs to stay up all night to do it. Duoduo is different. Not only can she complete her studies on time, she also has time to record variety shows in the entertainment industry!"
After saying this, Mother Xia shook her head again.
She was clearly her own daughter, but she wasn't as good as Duoduo in every way.
Sure enough, it was still better to personally educate them. Children who have been raised by their side since young were more astounding.
Xia Yuanzhou halted. As expected, Mother Xia didn't know what happened last night! Moreover, her own daughter had been missing for a week and she only cared about belittling her at the mention of her?
Xia Yuanzhou was irked, "Mom! It's not because of school homework! Shi Wei, Shi Wei, she ran away from home!"
Mother Xia and others were shocked.
Father Xia frowned, "Ran away from home? Why?"
"It was because of the night of the engagement," Xia Yuanzhou hurriedly explained, "Young Master Sheng didn't go to the engagement banquet and you all went to the hospital to take care of Elder Sister Duo. After that, Shi Wei..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Xia Duoduo choked on her congee and coughed a few times.
Father Xia and others, who were still listening to Xia Yuanzhou's explanation, immediately shifted their attention to Xia Duoduo when they heard Xia Duoduo choked.
Xia Yiwen was closest to Xia Duoduo. He quickly took out a tissue and patted her back to help her breathe.
"Eat slowly. Be careful not to choke."
"Did Auntie make the congee too thick?" Mother Xia said with concern, "Look at you. Your face is red from coughing. Be careful!"
Xia Yuanzhou paused. His explanation was stuck in his throat. Shi Wei had already run away from home and now this family was actually paying attention to Xia Duoduo choking on congee?
Couldn't they tell which of these two was more important!
Disgruntled, Xia Yuanzhou wanted to explain a few times, but Xia Duoduo coughed even more violently and left Xia Yuanzhou no way to interrupt.
After a while, Xia Duoduo finally stopped coughing. Xia Yuanzhou wanted to explain, but his phone suddenly lit up. It was Xia Duoduo's WeChat: 【Don't say】.
Xia Yuanzhou was stunned, not knowing what Xia Duoduo was up to.
When Mother Xia and others saw that Xia Duoduo was fine, they turned their attention back to Xia Yuanzhou.
"Yuanzhou, what did you just say?" Mother Xia asked, "Shi Wei ran away from home because we went to take care of Duoduo at the engagement party?"
"How old is she and still acting like this!" Father Xia unreservedly scolded. "Why can't she let us worry less!"
"Maybe she's jealous of Duoduo, knowing that Young Master Sheng likes Duoduo." Xia Yiwen remarked, rubbing Xia Duoduo's hair with pity, "It's just a girl's little thoughts. Don't worry, Mom and Dad, Shi Wei will be home in a few days."
"Shi Wei won't come back!" Xia Yuanzhou anxiously said. He remembered the resolute look in Shi Wei's eyes when she left that day, "Shi Wei, Shi Wei seems to be serious this time!"
Xia Yiwen raised his eyes coldly, "What do you mean?"
Xia Yuanzhou was about to speak, and Xia Duoduo sent another WeChat message: 【The matter on the night of the engagement party has been settled. If Dad and Mom know, they will inevitably worry again. Dad and Mom are old, can you bear to make them sad? Besides, we have finally reached a settlement with the Ye Family. If Dad and Mom know about this, the cooperation between Xia and Ye would be ruined! 】
Xia Yuanzhou gritted his teeth.
If his parents knew, they would angrily break up with the Ye Family...
It should be like that...right?
Xia Yuanzhou didn't dare to say anything for a while. Compared with the breakup of the Xia and Ye families after his parents knew the truth, Xia Yuanzhou was more afraid... that his parents would remain indifferent and everything would be normal between the Xia and Ye families.
Xia Yuanzhou had no choice but to change his words, "From the start, Shi Wei is the daughter of the Xia Family, but when Elder Sister Duo introduced the whole family on the second day of the engagement banquet and she wasn't included. On top of that, she was told not to go home. How can Shi Wei not be angry?"
When Father Xia and Mother Xia heard this, some irritation appeared in their eyes.
Although they didn't say it, they were displeased with Shi Wei in their hearts.
Shi Wei was so petty, being mad with family over such a small matter!
But they really did Shi Wei a disservice by letting her claim to be an adopted daughter.
Xia Yiwen glanced at the family members with different expressions and comforted them, "Mom and Dad, don't worry. I will go and persuade Shi Wei to come back."
"Really!" Xia Yuanzhou's eyes were filled with joy.
After Shi Wei returned home, she mostly took care of her younger brother, and always listened to her parents and Xia Yiwen. If Xia Yiwen was willing to invite Shi Wei, Shi Wei would definitely come back!
Xia Yiwen nodded, "I'm free these two days. I will contact Shi Wei and take her home."
...
After breakfast, Zhao Yi came to the Xia Family villa to pick up Xia Duoduo. She will participate in the script reading of 'Searching Celestial' in the afternoon and soon start the filming.
In the nanny car, Xia Duoduo closed her eyes and rested. Her phone kept lighting up. It was the WeChat of the wealthy circle's small group.
【What happened last night? Ye Wenqing wasn't lying to us, right? 】
【What reason would Miss Ye lie to you? I couldn't tell, Shi Wei, an adopted daughter, has some capability? 】
【In that case... wouldn't Duoduo be cuckolded? 】
【Above, let me remind you that Xia Duoduo is in this group! 】
【Will Xia Shiwei really be able to turn over and become Young Madam Sheng? 】
Zhou Min: 【Bullshit! What are you thinking? Young Master Sheng only likes our Duoduo! 】
【But... Young Master Sheng and Xia Duoduo have had intercourse! 】
Zhou Min: 【Do you think the Sheng Family could accept an adopted daughter? Besides, it's just Young Master Sheng being responsible and won't stand by and watch someone die. So what if a man had a few experiences before getting married? Does sleeping together mean there is love? 】
People in the wealthy circle's small group stopped talking.
In fact, everyone wasn't optimistic about Shi Wei and Sheng Jingchen. After all, no one believed that an adopted daughter could climb to the position of a top wealthy lady. But what happened last night at least proved that Young Master Sheng wasn't so unwilling in getting engaged to Shi Wei and his feelings for Xia Duoduo weren’t that deep.
Xia Duoduo looked at the messages, bit her lips, and her knuckles turned white while holding her handbag.
The phone suddenly lit up again. Seeing the message on it, Xia Duoduo's eyes flashed with a glimmer of pride.
It was just having intercourse.
After all, the person Elder Brother Jingchen liked was still her!
What popped up on the phone screen was Sheng Jingchen's WeChat.
Sheng Jingchen: 【Baby, what happened that night is a misunderstanding! 】
Sheng Jingchen: 【Xia Shiwei seduced me! I was, I was forced to! 】
Sheng Jingchen: 【How can I love Xia Shiwei? 】
Sheng Jingchen: 【The person I love, from beginning to end, is only you! 】
What the heck??!!!!!
