Chapter 119 Being questioned by Grandpa Sheng on the spot
Shi Qiuqiu: "..."
He is indeed a young man who doesn’t like the fireworks of the world!
Even more clumsy than Sheng Lijue.
"I don't need your help." In order to avoid waste, Shi Qiuqiu quickly grabbed the few remaining vegetables and said, "You should go out and sit down. There is no one you can help here."
"Don't underestimate me, it's just a favor. It's a small thing." Seeing Shi Qiuqiu looking down on him, Sheng Mingcheng felt a little unconvinced and said, "Is there anything else you haven't done? I'll help you."
Seeing that Sheng Mingcheng refused to go out, Shi Qiuqiu was annoyed by him. He pointed at her and said, "If you really have nothing to do, just chop the garlic and green onions and chop them into fine pieces."
After saying that, he thought of something again and asked, "Can you chop vegetables?"
"Of course." Sheng Mingcheng looked arrogant.
Seeing this, Shi Qiuqiu stopped caring about Sheng Mingcheng and began to pick the vegetables in his hands seriously.
Sheng Mingcheng had never held a kitchen knife before, so his posture was a little awkward at first, but in order to show off in front of Shi Qiuqiu, he didn't show any timidity at all. He even wanted to learn the vegetable cutting skills shown on TV, and he was very fast as soon as he got up.
.
The sound of chopping vegetables was heard in the kitchen, and Shi Qiuqiu raised his head and glanced in surprise: "I didn't expect that you can actually chop vegetables."
Sheng Mingcheng raised his eyebrows proudly and nodded: "Of course, I can do such a simple thing with my eyes closed."
After Shi Qiuqiu finished picking vegetables, she stood up and took a look, feeling speechless.
Nine out of ten cuts were made, so I have the nerve to say it was simple.
"Since you don't know how, don't cut so fast, or be careful of cutting your own hand..."
"hiss……"
Before Shi Qiuqiu finished speaking, Sheng Mingcheng's gasp rang in his ears.
Sheng Mingcheng threw away the kitchen knife and panicked while covering his fingers: "I cut my hand because you cursed me."
"Is there something wrong with you? I'm kindly reminding you." Shi Qiuqiu said angrily, but he didn't see Sheng Mingcheng care too much.
She grabbed Sheng Mingcheng's hand and flushed it under the faucet: "Rinse the blood away. Don't contaminate my food."
"Just wash it with water, what if you get infected?" When Sheng Mingcheng heard this, in Shi Qiuqiu's eyes, he was actually not as good as those dishes. He suddenly became angry and withdrew his hand in anger and said: "I
The wound hurts so much and needs medicine. Please give it to me quickly."
"You are such a delicate young master, you still insist on showing off your strength even though you know he doesn't know how to do it." Shi Qiuqiu pushed him out speechlessly, found the medicine box and muttered: "Obviously it's my fault that I'm stupid."
Sheng Mingcheng frowned, stretched out his hand in front of Shi Qiuqiu, and asked displeasedly: "What are you muttering about?"
"What do you think? He's such a big man, and he can't do things as reliably as a child." Shi Qiuqiu was treating the wounds while vomiting to Sheng Mingcheng: "You're so stupid. This is the first time I've seen a grown man so scared.
pain."
Speaking of this, Shi Qiuqiu unconsciously thought of Sheng Lijue.
The last time Sheng Lijue helped in the kitchen, he also got a hand, but he behaved very calmly and coldly, as if he had been bitten by a mosquito, and asked her to help with a patronizing tone, which was really annoying and funny.
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but smile.
"You..." This was the first time Sheng Mingcheng saw Shi Qiuqiu smiling so gently, and he was stunned for a moment.
Mr. Sheng brought the housekeeper in and saw Shi Qiuqiu with a gentle smile on his face, while Sheng Mingcheng stared blankly at Shi Qiuqiu. There was an aura of warmth between the two of them.
No matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like he was acting, and his doubts were immediately dispelled.
Shi Qiuqiu gave Sheng Mingcheng the good medicine and raised her head to meet Sheng Mingcheng's downcast gaze. She was stunned for a moment and was about to speak when she saw the old man standing at the door from the corner of her eye with a look of relief on his face.
She was startled: "Grandpa Sheng, why are you here?"
Sheng Mingcheng finally came to his senses, pushed Shi Qiuqiu away, then stood up and called out awkwardly: "Grandpa."
Shi Qiuqiu was pushed by Sheng Mingcheng and almost fell down.
She glared at Sheng Mingcheng fiercely. They didn't do anything shameful. Why were they so excited?
"The master came here specially to see Young Master Sheng." The housekeeper stood up to smooth things over, brought the tonic soup, and looked at the soup being cooked in the kitchen over low heat: "It turns out that Miss Shi is cooking for Young Master Sheng. It seems that
It's just an unlucky time for us to come."
After hearing this, Mr. Sheng's face looked better.
"Grandpa Sheng, come and sit down." Shi Qiuqiu came back to his senses and felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He quickly pushed Sheng Mingcheng, helped the old man come over and sat down, and whispered: "I'm going to make tea."
"No need, you all are here by chance. Let me show you something." Mr. Sheng patted Shi Qiuqiu on the shoulder and motioned for Sheng Mingcheng to sit down as well.
The butler smiled: "Then I'll make tea."
After the butler left, the old man took out the photo from the mail and handed it to the two people.
While observing their expressions, he asked Shi Qiuqiu and Sheng Mingcheng meaningfully: "How do you explain this?"
Sheng Mingcheng took a look at the photo and his face darkened. This photo was exactly what Shu Yan showed him last time. He didn't expect that she still kept it and even sent it to the old man!
When Shi Qiuqiu lowered her head and saw the photo, she was shocked. She tried her best to exert the utmost restraint as an actor to keep her expression from revealing anything.
But when faced with the old man's questioning, her mind went blank and she didn't know how to explain it for a moment.
Because the photo looked too ambiguous. Viewed from the side, she was hugging Sheng Lijue and kissing her. There was no way to explain it.
Who sent this kind of photo to the old man?
Shi Qiuqiu's hands and feet felt cold for a moment. She knew that there was no way she could get through this level.
Sheng Mingcheng wanted to break off the engagement from the beginning, and now that the evidence is conclusive, he can put all the blame on her, and avoid being angered by Grandpa Sheng.
Isn’t this the result Sheng Mingcheng wanted all along?
Shi Qiuqiu didn't expect that after struggling for so long, she still couldn't keep the engagement, and it even ended in the worst possible way.
Grandpa Sheng must be very disappointed with her, right?
Suddenly, guilt, self-blame, sadness and uneasiness all came flooding back.
Shi Qiuqiu pursed her lips: "Grandpa Sheng, I..."
She wanted to say 'I'm sorry', but then...
Sheng Mingcheng was the first to speak and said: "Grandpa, this photo was taken completely out of context and was taken in a borrowed location. Don't you also misunderstand it?"
As he spoke, he hugged Shi Qiuqiu's shoulders and said generously: "This was taken in the Hanging Garden. I was looking for something to do with my uncle at that time, and Qiuqiu happened to be with me. How can we take a photo of the meal that the three of us had?
