Ling Sheng had returned a little earlier. When she walked out of the elevator with Xiaxia, she saw the three people standing at the door. Her eyes widened, as though a bolt of lightning had struck her. She dashed over without a care and shouted, “Uncle!”
Her voice was sharp and thin, and tears were flowing down her cheeks. She was so loud that Xiaxia, who was beside her, couldn’t help but sigh. She had practiced acting before so much that she could make one’s heart pound!
Xiaoqi turned around and ran over excitedly on his short legs. “Aunt!”
Ling Sheng swore that she had never run so fast in her life. Afraid that the door would close if she was late, she deliberately spoke loudly. “Uncle, Aunt, why are you here?”
Su Xiyin frowned when she saw the strange look on her face. “Why are you running so fast? We can’t run.”
Huo Xiao smiled lovingly. “Sheng Sheng, you’re off work. We came just in time. Your great-aunt-in-law just said that you might not be off work.”
What great-aunt-in-law?
Ling Sheng felt bitter in her heart. She felt like she had struggled once on the brink of death and had come back to life. She was glad that she had come earlier than she had expected. If she had come any later, she really could not imagine what would have happened.
She took a look at her room quietly, feeling relieved when she did not hear anything. Then, she let out a low cough to warn the person inside.
Xiaxia followed suit and greeted the old couple with a smile. It seemed like her family did not know about Sheng Sheng’s relationship.
“Open the door,” Su Xiyin told her.
Ling Sheng smiled and nodded repeatedly. Yes, alright. Before opening the door, she turned to Xiaxia and gave her a hard look. “Xiaxia, give me your room card.”
Xiaxia understood immediately and took out her room card to give it to her. Upon seeing her smile like a flower, she turned to look at the old couple. “This is my room.”
“Didn’t they tell us your room was 206?” Huo Xiao was baffled.
Ling Sheng let out a low cough and tried her best to conceal her guilt. “They must have remembered it wrong. My room is obviously 207. This is her room.”
Huo Xiao frowned. He was very strict. “You can’t have such employees if they can’t even do this kind of job well.”
When Su Xiyin saw her granddaughter’s dodging gaze and blushing face, she understood a little.
Ling Sheng opened the door and led them in. Thankfully, Xiaxia was with her. Otherwise, she would have died. She pretended to be calm. “Have you eaten? I’ll take you out to dinner. There are a few delicious restaurants nearby. They’re quite authentic.”
Xiaxia took Ling Sheng’s card and hesitated for a long while before opening her door. When she saw the man in the wheelchair, she said, “Sir, Sheng Sheng asked me to bring a message. Her family is here. She wants you to leave now.”
This was the second time she had met the man in front of her. Last time, she had come over to borrow something from Sheng Sheng. The man’s elegance and noble temperament was really eye-catching, making one unable to take their eyes off him.
“Thank you.” Jun Shiyan thanked her. He had heard Mr. and Mrs. Huo arrive along with Xiaoqi. Their laughter was very warm.
Although he had expected this outcome, his heart still ached when he heard someone tell him to leave. He frowned slightly and said, “Miss Xia, rest here. I’ll pack up and leave immediately.”
When the young lady spoke, he really was unable to control his emotions for a moment. He wanted to open the door and tell everyone loudly that he liked her. He wanted to woo her, marry her, and be with her forever.
