Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 365 Using the Child to Intimidate Me
She wanted to flirt with him again, but to her surprise, this icy-faced man ignored her completely, which put Xin Ya in a difficult position.

Not only that, but before they even arrived at their destination, Xiao Shen had already told them to leave. Although Xin Ya tried to act pitiful, it was no use. Fortunately, she deliberately left a lipstick under the seat before getting out of the car.

If she can ruin the relationship between Fourth Brother and that Su Ying, wouldn't she have a chance?

Xiao Shen had several meetings today, and when he got home, he was so exhausted that he couldn't even take a shower and fell asleep immediately. Su Ying didn't disturb him; she just took off his clothes, put them in the basket, and left them there.

Wait, what's that smell?
The woman's perfume, at this concentration, could practically devour the table if you weren't in close proximity.

Su Ying's emotions didn't fluctuate much. After all, for a man of Xiao Shen's status, it was inevitable that there would be women who wanted to take his place. If she made a scene every time, how could she live her life?
People should live life with clarity and understanding!
Sure enough, the next day she confirmed her thoughts from the previous night in Xiao Shen's car.

Xiao Shen took the lipstick, opened the window, and threw it out. "You actually believe that?"

Su Ying laughed, "They've already used this trick, Fourth Master, why aren't you moved yet?"

Xiao Shen punished her by biting her lip, making it swollen. Su Ying glared at him reproachfully.

The man laughed triumphantly, "If you ever say those things I don't like to hear again, I'll do the same even if you get pregnant!"

Su Ying: “…”

"Ahem!" Song Hao coughed lightly, indicating that he had been fed a lot of dog food.

He handed over the tablet. "Brother Shen, here are some of the latest movies. Take a look!"

Xiao Shen tossed the order to Su Ying, "It's your decision!"

Su Ying was a little confused. He wanted to take her to see a movie?

Being allowed to go out is a good thing. "Um, Fourth Master, can we change to something else?"

The man rested his hand on his forehead, tilted his head to look at me, and even the corners of his eyes held a captivating charm. "You're pushing your luck!"

Su Ying took his arm and softened her tone, "How could I be pushing my luck? It's because you, Fourth Master, are so understanding! There are so many people at the movies, I was worried you'd be bored. How about we go to an entertainment venue instead!"

Xiao Shen grabbed her chin. "A pregnant woman like you going to an entertainment venue? Are you planning to satisfy the fetishes of those perverted men?"

To think of someone like that is to be a pervert.

"Fourth Master, what are you talking about? You've misunderstood. I'm talking about another place!"

Half an hour later.

"This is the other place you were talking about?"

This is just an ordinary night market.

The place had everything: food, drinks, and entertainment. Xiao Shen disliked this kind of place; it was smoky and noisy, and you could tell how much he disliked it from his disgusted expression.

"Yeah, let's just treat this as an after-dinner stroll. It's really lively here, you didn't know that, did you?"

"No, you're pregnant. What if you get pampered and squeezed by others?" Xiao Shen refused outright.

But now that she was already here, Su Ying couldn't just go back like this. She raised her hand and vowed, "I promise I'll protect myself, is that alright?"

"You? Enough already!" Xiao Shen scoffed. "I'm the one who has to make the arrangements!"

Su Ying was surrounded by onlookers the whole way.

With several bodyguards surrounding her on all sides, who wouldn't want to watch? This wasn't a stroll through a night market; it was clearly the Empress leaving the palace.

Su Ying felt very uncomfortable, but Xiao Shen had already given her a lot of face by letting her come this far, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

The lively hawking sounds filled her ears, and the rich aroma of food wafted to her nose. Su Ying's craving for barbecue skewers kicked in. Grilled chicken wings, grilled squid, all kinds of barbecue were available. Who wouldn't be tempted? Su Ying's eyes were practically glued to the food.

"Fourth Master, I'm hungry!" Su Ying rubbed her stomach, her eyes looking pitiful.

Xiao Shen glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, "Hungry? Let's go back and eat!" Su Ying quickly grabbed him, "Fourth Master, Fourth Master, we're already here, why don't we eat here?"

Xiao Shen looked around, a dissatisfied look on his face. "Junk food, what's so good about it!"

Su Ying still wouldn't let go, her expression ingratiating. "But I want to eat it. I haven't had it in so long. It's okay to have it once in a while!"

"no!"

"Fourth Master, please? The doctor said that a pregnant woman's mood directly affects the fetus's growth. I get unhappy when I can't eat what I want, and if I'm unhappy, the baby in my belly won't be doing well..."

Xiao Shen pressed his forehead, amused and exasperated. "Su Ying, you're really something, using the child to pressure me!"

"I had severe morning sickness a while ago, and now that I finally have an appetite, please let me eat something to make up for what I missed. I promise I will eat well from now on, and I will eat whatever you give me. I will never cause any trouble!"

Xiao Shen raised an eyebrow slightly. "Did you say that?"

Su Ying nodded firmly, "Yes, I said it!"

As it turned out, the old man was quite easy to talk to. Taking this opportunity, Su Ying ordered a lot of skewers in one go, which made Xiao Shen's face turn green, until she pulled a skewer and put it to his mouth.

At first, this guy absolutely refused to eat it, but after Su Ying begged him, he reluctantly took a bite, and then discovered that it was indeed a delicacy.

Since getting together with Su Ying, Xiao Shen has discovered two new culinary delights: snail rice noodles and grilled skewers.

Su Ying not only ate barbecue skewers, but also went a step further and drank milk tea. In short, she ate heartily and had a good appetite. Sure enough, everything was good.

The two wandered around until very late before returning home, and happened to run into Chen Wanru, who had also just returned, in the courtyard. She took the initiative to greet Xiao Shen, who had a cold face. In the Xiao family's old mansion, everyone was used to Xiao Shen's ruthlessness, but no one dared to neglect him.

"Hmm? Why does it smell like barbecue skewers?" Chen Wanru has a keen nose and immediately noticed it.

Su Ying's heart skipped a beat, but she calmly replied, "Oh, I probably picked it up when Fourth Master and I were walking through the downtown area!"

Chen Wanru left without giving it much thought.

Su Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

She wouldn't listen to herself; she'd inevitably go and complain to the old man again. The old man had just been discharged from the hospital…

"Don't worry, the old man is busy with Ruonan's affairs lately and doesn't have time to talk to you!" Xiao Shen saw her concerns and spoke with a gloating tone.

Su Ying was surprised, "How did you know?"

Two seconds later, "Could it be that Dad already knows Ruonan is pregnant?"

……

"Master!"

"Master!"

As Qian Xingjie came downstairs, his bodyguards saluted him one by one.

Musa immediately turned around.

"Musa, stop right there!" Qian Xingjie waved his hand, dismissing everyone.

"What's wrong with you? I've noticed you've been avoiding me lately!"

Musa avoided his gaze, her tone natural, "Young Master is overthinking it, nothing of the sort!"

"I hope I'm just overthinking it!" Qian Xingjie reached out and touched her face. "I'm going on a business trip tonight, will you come with me?"

Since that night, their relationship has become quite ambiguous, more than friends but not quite lovers.

Musa dodged his hand and took two steps back, leaving Qian Xingjie's hand frozen in mid-air.
