Chapter 27: Does Sheng Xiao Not Like Women?

Old Master Sheng felt a little guilty, but he still put on a brave face and said boldly, “You’re not in a hurry, but I am? Everyone outside says that the head of our Sheng family is almost thirty and doesn’t like women. With such a large industry, are you going to hand it over to outsiders in the future?”

“Grandpa, I’m twenty-six!”

What does almost thirty mean?

“Oh, you’re getting arrogant now, aren’t you? Twenty-six is basically thirty if you round it up. If you wait any longer to get married, your sperm quality will be affected, seriously impacting the next generation of our Sheng family.”

Sheng Xiao was speechless. What was he talking about? He was still in his prime!

“Grandpa, stop worrying about this. Take care of your own health. I know what I’m doing.”

Old Master Sheng squinted his eyes, looked around, and leaned closer to Sheng Xiao. “You little rascal, tell your grandpa honestly, do you not like women? Even though I’m old, my thinking isn’t outdated. If you really like men, I can take some time to digest it, it’s not like I can’t…”

“Grandpa!!” Sheng Xiao directly interrupted his grandfather’s wild thoughts. “You’re getting ridiculous!”

Old Master Sheng looked at Uncle Fu with a hint of grievance, shook his head, and walked away with his cane. “Ah, I’m getting old and useless. We can’t control what the third young master of the Sheng family does.”

Sheng Xiao sighed helplessly. “Grandpa, you have a granddaughter-in-law.”

“Uh, I have a granddaughter-in-law… what? What did you say?”

Sheng Xiao was afraid that he would be too excited and his heart wouldn’t be able to take it, so he softened his tone. “Sit down first.”

Old Master Sheng couldn’t wait to throw his cane away, and in two steps, he sat down on the chair in front of Sheng Xiao. “Tell me quickly, I really have a granddaughter-in-law, or are you fooling me?”

“It’s real.”

“Who is she from? How old is she? Do you have a picture? How long have you been together? When are you planning to get married?”

Sheng Xiao saw his grandfather’s spirits soar, his mouth like a machine gun, his brain was getting bigger.

“We’ve already gotten our marriage certificate. It’s just… she doesn’t know about my situation yet.”

Sheng Xiao told Old Master Sheng about his relationship with Lin Yuan, and Old Master Sheng slammed his cane heavily on the ground, his eyes wide open. “Sheng San, you’re deceiving her into marriage!”

Sheng Xiao looked around. The bodyguards who had been listening with their ears pricked up instantly lowered their heads, wishing they were deaf.

“I just haven’t figured out how to tell her.”

“Serves you right. You have a good girl, but you have to be stupid. Tell me honestly, weren’t you afraid that she would cheat you out of money and deliberately played these tricks?”

“Sheng Xiao, you wouldn’t be thinking of playing with her and then dumping her, would you!”

Sheng Xiao frowned. Although he initially didn’t think he could have a long-term relationship with Lin Yuan, and he deliberately concealed his identity, his grandfather’s words were too harsh.

“I’m speechless. Don’t tell people you’re my grandson when you go out, I can’t afford to lose face. A good heir to the Sheng family, you say you’re a poor boy, have you watched too many Qiong Yao dramas?”

Sheng Xiao wanted to explain a few more things, but Lin Yuan’s call came in. He glanced at Old Master Sheng and answered the phone. “Awake?”

Lin Yuan’s voice was lazy, with the sweetness of the morning. “Hmm… when did you leave last night? I didn’t feel a thing. Are you up now?”

Sheng Xiao had exhausted Lin Yuan last night, so much so that she didn’t even know when he got up and left.

Sheng Xiao: “Yeah, I’m up.”

He felt a little crowded behind him, turned his head slightly, and saw Old Master Sheng and Uncle Fu standing close together, right behind him, listening with their ears pricked up, “openly” eavesdropping on his conversation.

The sound of domestic phones is inherently loud. When Lin Yuan’s voice came from the phone, the two old men behind him winked at each other, their mouths almost reaching the sky and the sun.

Sheng Xiao: “…”

Lin Yuan: “I’m going to get my hair done with Yaoyao later, and I’m going to go shopping with her to buy clothes. Will you be busy today?”

Sheng Xiao: “It’s okay. It’s hot outside, remember to drink plenty of water.”

Lin Yuan: “Okay, okay. You take care of yourself too.” Then she stammered, “Sheng Xiao, do you miss me?”

It was only one night, even Lin Yuan felt a little cheesy asking this question, but Sheng Xiao calmly replied, “Yes.”

Lin Yuan chattered to Sheng Xiao about all the things she planned to do today, reminding him to eat well, pay attention to sun protection, and come back early after finishing work, before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

Sheng Xiao suppressed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth and turned around.

Old Master Sheng and Uncle Fu’s expressions hadn’t had time to retract, they were caught red-handed.

“It’s really hot today, Old Fu.”

“Yes, drink more water, be careful of heatstroke.”

The two of them helped each other back to their chairs and sat down. Sheng Xiao put his tongue against his cheek and walked over. “You heard everything.”

Old Master Sheng: “When can I meet my granddaughter-in-law? Just listening to her voice, she’s a good girl. Sheng Xiao, you little rascal, you’ve found a treasure.”

Sheng Xiao was speechless. Was he really his own grandson? Why did his grandfather always praise one and criticize the other?

“The time isn’t right yet. I’ll find an opportunity to tell her, so I don’t scare her.”

Old Master Sheng sighed. “You really brought this upon yourself. If you scare my granddaughter-in-law away, I will definitely not spare you!”

“Grandpa, can’t you have some faith in your own grandson?”

“I have no faith in you, you stinking brat! You’re almost thirty and haven’t even dated anyone. It’s obvious you don’t know how to coax girls, you have a bad temper and a cold face, who would like you?”

“Your grandfather was your father’s age when I was your age!”

Sheng Xiao saw Old Master Sheng’s scolding, his energy was strong, he could even jump up and beat him, his body should be fine!

Leaving the old house, Sheng Xiao sat in the car and rubbed his temples. “Schedule all the appointments for today.”

Zuo Chuan looked at the packed schedule, feeling a little embarrassed. “Third Master, you’ve finally come back. The government has several projects waiting for you to meet and discuss, and several major collaborations want to schedule a time with you.”

“It’s okay, schedule the government’s first, then the rest in order of priority. Meet everyone who can be met by eight tonight, those who can’t be met, schedule them for tomorrow morning.”

“Before ten tomorrow morning, return to Yancheng.”

Lin Yuan’s college classmate was getting married, he could tell she wanted him to be there, Sheng Xiao didn’t want to disappoint her, so he had to compress his work time.

Zuo Chuan looked at Sheng Xiao, who looked tired, and sighed in his heart. This Third Master was truly a figure who could cover the sky with one hand, but he still had to suffer the pain of love.

Luckily, he was a single dog.

Heh.

Single dog…

Even Sheng San had gotten married, but he was still a single dog.

Heaven have mercy, he also wanted to experience the pain of love.

Is there a kind person out there who can introduce him to a girl?

He’s 188cm tall, his appearance is second only to Sheng Xiao, his annual salary is eight figures, he’s devoted and gentle…
