At that time, the old man went back to his room to rest, so Mrs. Xiao took out these photos.

It was so hard for her to return home, but she hadn't had a single day of peace. She was afraid that the old man would be so angry that he would pass away.

Xiao Qingzhou took the photo out of the envelope and took a look at it, his face looking very unhappy.

"Mom, where did you get these?"

He is already this old, and it would be too embarrassing for his family to see such photos.

Madam Xiao was much calmer, "You still know how to save face."

"You need to ask Miss Li where this thing came from."

The meaning is very clear. These photos were taken by Li Musa herself, and they are all the good times she and Xiao Qingzhou spent together.

Then use this thing to negotiate terms with Mrs. Xiao.

If Madam Xiao did not agree to let her enter the Xiao family, she would risk her own reputation to discredit Xiao Qingzhou.

Xiao Qingzhou's expression became even uglier, but he was very determined, "Impossible."

He didn't believe that Li Musa would take these photos without telling him.

I don't believe that a weak girl like her would negotiate and threaten Madam Xiao.

Madam Xiao smiled and said, "I, your mother, have raised you for so many years, but it's not as good as a few words from a woman outside."

"If your father were like you, I would be happy."

Xiao Haiyin sat there, "Why are you changing the subject for no reason?"

What are you saying about him?

Aren't they just young and inexperienced? Over the years, she has been spoiled so much that she is almost living backwards to her 20s.

"Anyway, let me put this here. If you want Li Musa, get out of the house. Your father and I will give birth to another child even if it means risking our lives."

When Madam Xiao said this, she was still dignified and there was no sense of incongruity.

Xiao Qingzhou glanced at her and said, "Don't you see how old you are?"

Madam Xiao smiled, "So what? The Xiao family has good genes. Your grandfather is old enough to still have your uncle."

"Or do you think your dad is incompetent?"

Everyone, whether present or absent, was named. Mrs. Xiao was always sharp in her words.

Xiao Qingzhou frowned and couldn't say a word.

In terms of argument, he has never been a match for his mother.

Madam Xiao said calmly:

"Or, you can apologize to Xiaoshu, ask her to forgive you and ask her to let us announce your engagement to the public."

In this case, Li Musha was a third party, and the revelations were just a trick to coerce the Xiao family so that she could marry into a wealthy family.

Xiao Qingzhou and Sheng Shushu are both victims.

But she had to suffer a little bit because of the whole thing.

Sheng Shushu had never thought that her attempt to recover her investment in Huazhong would actually involve herself and her engagement with Xiao Qingzhou, which she had already tacitly agreed to cancel.

"Aunt Xiao."

Sheng Shushu thought for a moment and asked, "Can we hold a wedding banquet without getting a marriage certificate?"

It’s just to help Xiao Qingzhou and the Xiao family get through this public opinion storm.

Mrs. Xiao's answer was conservative. "If you two really have no feelings for each other, then of course, no one can force anyone. I am already very embarrassed to ask you to help me with this."

The matter happened suddenly, and it was too late to even choose a marriage partner on the spur of the moment.

What's more, Wang Ci Xin does have selfish motives. What if the two children hold a wedding banquet and then fall in love with each other after getting to know each other for a long time?

She likes Sheng Shushu so much, so it would be best if it could be like that.

Therefore, even if it was just to prove that Li Musha was involved, the Xiao family could find anyone to announce their engagement with Xiao Qingzhou as an excuse, but she didn't want to let a stranger take advantage.

If anyone can hold books, then it would be best if it is her.

The living room suddenly became quiet.

Xiao Yu stayed out of the matter from beginning to end, but when Sheng Shushu asked that question, his gaze secretly shifted away.

According to normal thinking, if they just hold a wedding banquet without getting a marriage certificate, then she is planning to agree to it?

"Did anyone take a picture of the meeting between the sister-in-law and Miss Li?"

The atmosphere was quiet and everyone was waiting for Sheng Shushu to make a decision when Xiao Yu suddenly spoke.

Then, several people couldn't help but look at him.

Xiao Yu's voice was a little hoarse, and he didn't wear glasses today like he usually did when he went to class.

Without the glasses, Sheng Shushu could clearly see the fatigue and the coldness as deep as a dark pond in his eyes.

In the past, Sheng Shushu didn’t like looking at Xiao Yu when he didn’t wear glasses.

It gives people a sharp and scrutinizing feeling that penetrates the soul.

His facial features were naturally cold and hard, his brows were very deep, and he looked extremely cunning. In addition, he was mostly reserved and taciturn, so he gave people invisible pressure just by standing there.

Therefore, Xiao Yu would wear glasses, or rather, frames, when he went to class. According to Chen Yu, it would increase his friendliness.

Sheng Shushu only then realized that he didn't wear it today?

Didn't you go to class?

"Probably not." Madam Xiao answered him, "Unless Li Musha took the photo himself."

Xiao Yu was being watched by several pairs of eyes, but he still had a calm expression and spoke in a flat tone.

“I try to deal with it,” he said.

He didn't make any promises, so he left a lot of room for maneuver.

He also gave the chosen one: "If it can't be handled before noon tomorrow, then we can discuss getting Xiao Qingzhou engaged."

When Xiao Qingzhou heard this, he kowtowed eight times to his uncle in his heart.

Whoever prevented him from getting engaged to Sheng Shushu is truly his benefactor.

"Eat first?" Xiao Yu looked down at his watch, "I have something to do at nine o'clock."

After he said that, Mrs. Xiao naturally asked people to speed up, serve the dishes, and have dinner.

Xiao Yu was very specific about the time and was a man of action. He was ready to leave the Xiao residence on time at a quarter before nine.

Sheng Shushu thought about not going with him, but she couldn't stay in the old house. On the one hand, she didn't want to be pestered by Xiao Qingzhou to find Li Musa.

Secondly, what if Mrs. Xiao was confused for a moment and tried to match her up with Xiao Qingzhou?

Twenty minutes after the car left Xiao's house.

Sheng Shushu wasn't sure where Xiao Yu was going to discuss things, so she could only speak at the right time in the car.

"I know you want to reveal our relationship to the Xiao family. If possible, you can set the conditions, and I will meet your demands and keep the matter to myself."

She pushed him like that last night, asking him to call another woman to confess his love, and asking him to choose another woman as a pawn to expand his business empire, but he didn't give in.

Sheng Shushu stared at her like this, and she was really worried that he would tell it on impulse one day.

Xiao Yu remained silent.

Sheng Shushu got a little angry.

He turned his head to look at the person in the driver's seat, "Can you say something?"

Xiao Yu glanced at her and continued driving.

"Professor Xiao just wanted to help the Xiao family deal with Li Musha, just to prevent me and Xiao Qingzhou from getting engaged."

"Do you think you have helped me a lot?"

"And you want me to submit to something?"

Xiao Yu looked at her again.

But he still didn't say anything.

Sheng Shushu couldn't help feeling angry, but his expression remained calm.

"How about this, I'll call Miss Qu or someone else and tell them that you still love her and ask if we can get the marriage certificate tomorrow."

Even though she said that, Xiao Yu remained calm.

Sheng Shushu reached out to take his cell phone.

Xiao Yu's eyes finally darkened.
