“What?” Sheng Yeting’s voice was cold and indifferent.

On the other end of the call, Bao was stunned a little; it seemed he did not expect Sheng Yeting to answer the phone.

Sheng Yeting glanced at the phone and began to feel a little impatient. As he was about to end the call, he heard the pitiful crying sound of Bao: “Daddy, I'm so scared. That bad man was just outside our door. He threatened my mommy. I am terrified.” Wailing!

Sheng Yeting’s face darkened; his expression was hard to read. He picked up his suit and left his mansion.

Qin Pei was surprised to see her son leave in such hurry. She wondered what her son rushed out for.

On the other side. Xia Xingcheng just got out of shower. Her hair was wet and stuck on her body. Before she had time to blow it dry yet, She saw Bao was drawing pictures alone, and from time to time he would look up to see the clock.

Xia Xingcheng was a little puzzled of it. As she was just about to tell Bao to go to bed, the doorbell rang suddenly.

She was spooked by the doorbell. She recalled what Xu Hao said when he was leaving. ‘It is very late now, who could it be?’

Xia Xingcheng didn't notice the light in Bao’s eyes when he heard the doorbell. She could only summon up the courage to open the door.

After the door was opened, it was Sheng Yeting’s ice-cold face before her eyes.

They were both a little surprised to see each other, especially Xia Xingcheng. Her eyes widened and she couldn't wrap her head around it.

Sheng Yeting looked at Xia Xingcheng up and down unconsciously. Her body was slightly glowing after shower. Her nightgown molded around her body and vaguely showed out the outline of her beautiful breasts. Her skin was white and exquisite like porcelain.

Noticing he was watching her, Xia Xingcheng blushed immediately. She shut the door quickly before she could think about it.

Outside the door, Sheng Yeting was not mad. Instead there was a heat wave inside his lower body; he was actually aroused somehow!

Xia Xingcheng rushed to change clothes. Bao took the initiative to open the door and led Sheng Yeting in.

Sheng Yeting looked around the two-bedroom apartment. Although it was small, it was very warm and cozy.

Xia Xingcheng came out after changing her clothes. She saw him sitting on the couch, feeling awkward and asking: “What are you doing here?”

Sheng Yeting stopped looking around and asked directly: “Where is the man?”

Xia Xingcheng realized he was talking about Xu Hao and answered in a low voice: “He's gone already.”

She asked suspiciously: “Wait a minute. How do you know he was here?”

Sheng Yeting looked at her and didn't answer. Then Xia Xingcheng realized it must be Bao who told him.

She looked at Sheng Yeting with an apologizing expression: “We're fine now. Did you come here especially for us?”

Sheng Yeting also realized he was duped by the little lad. He looked at Bao, being a little mad.

Yes, he couldn't help but get soft for the little lad and help him, but it didn't mean he could dupe him!

Sheng Yeting's majesty hadn't been violated yet, and this little lad had just set the precedent.

Seeing Sheng Yeting was mad, Bao was a little scared. He immediately pretended to be pitiful: “Daddy, I did not lie. That bad man insulted and threatened mommy. He said he would come back and force mommy to marry the old man.”

“Bao! Stop talking!” Xia Xingcheng warned Bao. She was angry too.

She really didn't understand what was happening with Bao. Why would he behave like this when he was around Sheng Yeting?

Seeing his mommy was angry, Bao didn't dare to speak anymore. He tugged his mother's sleeve pitifully to coax her.

When he saw the mother and the son together like this, there was a shimmering light in Sheng Yeting’s eyes which was hard to read.

“Xia Xingcheng, would you marry me?” He asked.

She was so astounded that she almost choked on her own saliva. After she realized she did not hear that wrong, she asked suspiciously: “What did you say just yet?”

Sheng Yeting was a little stunned by his own words. He blurted out the question unconsciously. But now it was already being said, so he had no way to retract it.

And he had no habit to take back his words easily.

He made up his mind, looked up at her and went on saying: “Your family wanna force you to marry that old man. Maybe we should get married, then you won't be forced into a marriage and so won’t I. My family was pressing me to get married too. So, why not?”

“But it will be a fake marriage, a contract marriage. We don't interfere with each other’s lives.”

Xia Xingcheng was shocked, she couldn't believe it. He really wanted her to marry him. He knew her situation, right? Was he insane?

And to propose a marriage just like that, did he really think it through?

Although she had to admit, with his help, she and Bao could live a much better life. But was it fair to him?

“Sheng Yeting, are you sure you're not joking?”

With a complicated feeling, Xia Xingcheng asked hesitantly: “If we were to get married, would your family agree to it? You really don't care what other people might think? ”

Her series of questions made Sheng Yeting frown a little. Didn't know why, but he did not want to see her being like this, worried and afraid of everything.

And he did not dislike her!

“I never worry about other people's thoughts. You just need to tell me would you agree to it or not?” He said calmly.

“If you agree, meet me at the city hall tomorrow, 12 o’clock.”

Hearing this, she was even more surprised. Would he really marry her because he was tired of his family pressing him?

Or he just wanted to help her?

Sheng Yeting was not gonna wait for her to answer. He stood up and was ready to leave.

When he was about to get to the door, he suddenly turned around, his face being expressionless. “Xia Xingcheng, if we do get married, it would just be a contract marriage. We don't have to consummate the marriage. It is mutually beneficial. If you won't think about yourself, then think about your son. The next time your son get kidnapped, you would have no one to help you.” After saying that, he took a look at Bao and left.
