Section 2

She is Xiao Su, the wife of her father who remarried, his stepmother, and the mother of her stepsister Xiao Yuhang

As soon as the summer solstice let out a sigh, the sound of the accelerator rose again. Then, the Great Wall came straight towards the BMW.

I made a mistake.

Xia Zhi warned her: "Cheng Xiao, if you dare to go any faster, I will throw up on you!"

Perhaps I am.

Cheng Xiao did not look back and said: "Whoever is anxious, scold whoever."

Miss BMW's gaze swept over the departing Bentley, which was more luxurious and imposing than her own vehicle, leaving her momentarily speechless

Cheng Xiao wore a nonchalant expression: "Ask your fiancé; he is obliged to explain my actions." Then she reached out and unceremoniously pushed Miss BMW aside: "Good dogs do not block the way"

* * * * * * * * * *

Miss BMW replied without hesitation: "He is my fiancé"

The fine rain lingered until the afternoon before it ceased. Breathing in the fresh air and driving on the damp, dust-free streets, Cheng Xiao drove the car as if it were an airplane

Gu Changming affectionately patted his stepdaughter's little head, "Are you feeling jealous? Dad has always been on the same side as you."

Is it a coincidence, or is it...

Xiao Yuhang did not admit it, "I didn't! You men are all the same, your words don't count."

Miss BMW was relentless: "It cannot just end like this. She damaged the car you gave me and humiliated me."

The summer solstice has come, and the cold voice retorts: "I didn't ask you!"

The tacit understanding with Cheng Xiao is always present. At the summer solstice, she pointed at the BMW lady with her finger, "Park your junk aside, don't disrupt the traffic. What's the matter, can't you drive it? Oh, it can't even withstand a collision with our little Great Wall, how fragile! Do you need me to call a tow truck for you?"

In the next moment, Xia Zhi is about to slap Fei Yao's face.

At the southern end of the city, Cheng Xiao, who was also still awake, gazed at the ceiling in a daze, illuminated by the light streaming in through the gap in the curtains

My car! Miss BMW broke free from Feiyao's arm and rushed towards her vehicle

Feiyao instinctively shouted: "Cheng Xiao!"

Cheng Xiao has already unfastened her seatbelt and exited the vehicle

Cheng Xiao walked over, her tone very cold, and asked slowly, "Who is she?"

Despite feeling angry, Cheng Xiao still made an effort to temper her demeanor when forcefully slamming the car door, consciously lowering her posture and seeking the other party's opinion on how to handle the situation

Gu Changming and Xiao Su exchanged smiles, merely considering it as their youngest daughter's playful antics

The owner of the BMW is indeed a woman. However, she is not middle-aged, but rather in her prime. Similar in age to Cheng Xiao, she has an exquisite makeup, a classic Chanel suit, and her temperament complements the BMW perfectly

Cheng Xiao's expression has completely turned cold

Miss BMW was aggressive: "So you think you have a reason to rear-end me? Let me tell you, even if it means going bankrupt, you must compensate me."

As the crowd dispersed, Xia Zhi shouted at Cheng Xiao: "Are you out of your mind, playing with his life?"

"Go ahead, let's settle this privately." Cheng Xiao turned around and gracefully walked towards the Great Wall. She took her seat in the driver's position, and amidst the shouts of "Don't go!" from the BMW lady, she parked the car by the roadside

Feiyao? Just wait to see who is coming. Xia Zhi couldn't help but curse, "You wouldn't even choose the right time to seek death!"

He did not expect the call to go through. Until the other party asked him, "Who is this?" Gu Nanting was jolted awake from his reverie

Miss BMW's heaving chest rose and fell with anger, "Be careful not to overdo it, or you might embarrass yourself later."

* * * * * * * * * *

Xiao Su lightly reproached: "What is this child saying"

Xiao Yuhang did not understand the myriad twists and turns of his momentary thoughts, interpreting the silence as a rejection

Staring at the name displayed on the phone screen, he inexplicably pressed the call button

However, before she could speak, the BMW owner disdainfully interjected, "Can you even drive? If you're in such a hurry, why don't you just fly over?" Looking at the damaged headlights of his car, as well as Cheng Xiao's casual attire and the inconspicuous Great Wall behind her, he became even more arrogant: "You dare to approach any car; you truly are fearless. But can you afford the damages?"

Ten minutes later, a Bentley approached from a distance. The car door opened, and a man in his forties stepped out. Upon seeing Cheng Xiao, he slightly bowed and presented a checkbook with both hands

In such situations, it is often the case that older female novices suddenly brake. At the moment Cheng Xiao retracted her brake, she forcefully slapped the steering wheel with her right hand, which had been extended in front of Xia Zhi's chest.

Xiao Yuhang released Gu Changming's hand and ran to sit on the sofa. "Brother promised to take me on a trip long ago, but I have waited year after year, and he is still busy. Now he is going to take over as a major leader, and he has even less time to fulfill his promise"

Miss BMW thought she was being asked. Indeed, Cheng Xiao was asking her, but the person who should have answered was the one who came to save the situation

Feiyao timely intercepted her

* * * * * * * * * *

Xiao Yuhang clung to Gu Changming's arm, "Dad, look, Mom is favoring my brother again, as if I were adopted."

At this moment, a male and a female voice spoke simultaneously:

I no longer wish to speak with you

The gentle and soft words, akin to those of a mother, along with the sincere affection reflected in her gaze, warmed Gu Nanting's heart. He released Xiao Yuhang and opened his arms to embrace Xiao Su, saying, "Is that so? Let me take good care of her."

Hengheng, stop causing trouble for your brother!

At the summer solstice, it is only natural: "You splashed coffee on someone, so an apology is only appropriate."

Cheng Xiao gazed at her, her eyes filled with unwavering confidence

Cheng Xiao pressed the accelerator firmly, continuously increasing the speed

The traffic light at the intersection ahead is flashing green. Cheng Xiao assesses that there are a few seconds of transition before the yellow light, and they can completely make it through. However, just as she is about to disregard Miss Xia's threat and step on the gas to beat the light, the BMW in front, which was originally moving quite fast, unexpectedly slams on the brakes and comes to a stop

"If so, do you have any hospital recommendations?" Cheng Xiao got out of the car and threw the check onto Fei Yao's face: "The amount is up to you to fill in."

How old are you? Are you an uncle? Xia Zhi expresses regret, "I thought you would exchange contact information and have some follow-up development."

Xiao Su did not notice anything unusual about her stepson, but scolded her daughter, saying, "I asked you to go on vacation with us, but you refused and insisted on bothering your brother."

Cheng Xiao responded in a clear voice and a gentle tone: "Whatever kind of person you are, that is the expression I will wear."

Summer solstice changed the topic: "Has the phone been connected?"

Xiao Su poked her forehead and said, "Dare to do but not to acknowledge it"

程潇 shook her head, but replied, "I didn't hit."

Is it considered her fault? Cheng Xiao closed her eyes and said, "That makes sense, at such an old age, it is not easy."

The other party has never been so angry before and angrily questioned, "Who are you calling a dog?".

At that moment, a somewhat familiar private car rushed over and stopped next to the BMW

It is not a matter of coffee

Gu Nanting was uncertain whether he should readily promise to accompany her through thick and thin, or do nothing at all and let things unfold naturally, becoming part of "history"

Summer solstice is afraid of this. She tightly grasped the seat belt, gritted her teeth, "I shouldn't have told you that the car key for the coffee is with me? I talk too much!"

Miss BMW rushed over and shouted: "Are you out of your mind, woman!"

It turned out to be a good sleep.

Cheng Xiao concluded, "You have been poisoned too deeply by romance novels"

I can't believe it! Cheng Xiao sighed: "They all say not to act impulsively, young lady!"

On the summer solstice, she gave him a thumbs up, "But if you can't even see a shadow of him, how can you catch him off guard?"

Nan Ting, do not hurt her!

Cheng Xiao recalled what had happened during the day, "What should I say? Should I apologize to him?"

The summer solstice brings unexpected troubles: "What bad luck, I should have checked the almanac before going out"

Xiao Yuhang had her reasons: "You and Dad are on your honeymoon, should I tag along as a third wheel? Of course, I should be a bit more considerate." As she spoke, she looked eagerly at Gu Nanting, "Can you take me to the ancient city during the summer vacation? It is rustic and simple, with an ancient charm that I have long yearned for."

Then I heard someone downstairs say: "Nanting, come down for dinner."

She still argues with me on the summer solstice, "You're just jealous that coffee loves me more."

Ancient city? That's right, if nothing unexpected happens, she will go to the ancient city this year and then meet...

The siblings went downstairs together, and Xiao Yuhang kept demanding gifts along the way, "If there are no novel items, you won't be allowed to eat!"

The brain experiences a short circuit lasting a few seconds

Am I eating your rice because I am poor? The original intention of the summer solstice was to apologize to her first, but now it has become heated, "Aren't you overly concerned, miss?"

Gu Nanting responded: "I'll be right there, Aunt Xiao."

Li carefully looked her up and down and said, "It's good that you're not injured."

Those who don't know might think you have a secret crush on him and want to steal me away.

The night is deep

The cold sweat of the summer solstice came down instantly, and she shouted in fear, "Xiao!"

Seventeen-year-old blooming girl, every frown and smile exudes charm. Gu Nanting pulled her aside, holding her wrist to prevent her from "committing a crime", "Where did all these novel things come from? I'm not good at inventing."

Under her indifferent gaze, Fei Yao fell silent for a moment.

With Xia's personality, she can do it. Cheng Xiao smiled and slowed down.

Xia Zhi doesn't mind being disliked. She snuggled up to Cheng Xiao and hugged his arm like a child, "Hey, what did you say to your benefactor in the end? I forgot to ask earlier because I was interrupted by a call from 'Coffee'."

Gu Nanting followed the sound and looked over, only to see Gu Changming and Xiao Su coming out of the kitchen one after another.

Cheng Xiao grabbed her and pushed her towards the green belt, then he himself sat back in the Great Wall and shifted into reverse gear.

Under Cheng Xiao's gesture, she turned around and saw not far from them, the "benefactor" who had been splashed with coffee on the plane getting out of a Porsche, and the front of the Porsche...? ... seemed to have been hit?

Cheng Xiao said, "I am not good at acting hypocritically. Instead of listening to his lies and excuses, it's better to catch him off guard and kill him."

As evening approached, Xiao Yuheng burst into the room with a gloomy expression. "What were you doing last night? Didn't you sleep at all? I've been back for a while, and you're still not awake."

After waiting for a few seconds without receiving a response on the other end, he became a little impatient and said, "If you don't speak, I'll hang up."

At this time, the father showed no signs of aging, with a tall and straight figure and sharp eyes. His wife by his side, just as I remembered, was graceful and gentle.

Looking at the car door that suddenly caved in, the BMW lady became even more furious and said, "You're showing off, aren't you? Then don't go through insurance, let's settle this privately!"

Xiao Yuhang snorted: "I am here to locate you on behalf of my father"

Cheng Xiao pointed at her with her finger, "Otherwise, it would undermine your cunning, Miss Xia."

So wasn't I once so vulgar that I couldn't go on living

Cheng Xiao felt that pacifying the situation was a bit of an apology to the other party's arrogance. She lifted her foot, and her high heels directly hit the body of the BMW, "Bankrupt? Just based on this?!" and - picture - book.

Cheng Xiaowei smiled faintly, "Sorry to bother you, Brother Li."

You already are.

"Clearly it's an interrogation, but the familiar and nostalgic dependence in that tone unconsciously softens Gu Nanting's voice,"When do I need to report my whereabouts to you?"

When Gu Nanting returned home, there was no one there. The butler said, "The master went to the old Xiao family mansion with the madam, and the young miss has classes in the afternoon."

Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled and took out her phone to make a call: "It's me. Have someone bring me a check and tail them." Then she gave the address and turned to the BMW lady, "What's your price?"

After a while, he put down his wine glass, took out his mobile phone, and even without needing to check his contacts, dialed a number directly.

Xiao Su arrived first: "Finally back. While you were away from home, some people have been having a great time."

This is to allow him to rest well. Gu Nanting understood.

The BMW was severely rear-ended

She playfully hit Gu Nanting and said, "I won't be nice to you, you untrustworthy bad brother."

Xiazhi wore an innocent smile, "Who told me not to have high hopes for him? If I have the chance, I might as well take advantage of him, otherwise, I would be unworthy of my reputation for being scheming as vast as the sea"

Cheng Xiao looked innocent and said, "Did I do that?"

Cheng Xiao's reaction was already fast enough. However, even though she stepped on the brakes at the first moment, she still could not avoid the accident and ended up rear-ending.

Miss BMW finally reacted, staring intently at Cheng Xiao, "Who are you?"

I have discussed the car accident with Coffee, you need not worry about it any longer

As the summer solstice turns, "In the dead of night, disturbing one's peaceful dreams, you actually did not scold him?"

Heh. Cheng Xiao scoffed

Having seen off the visitor, Cheng Xiao lazily leaned against the Great Wall and called out, "Have you negotiated a price with the reinforcements? I don't have that much time to waste with you."

It should be that it has leaped several hundred levels beyond what I had imagined

Summer Solstice: "Just now when you were reversing."

Miss BMW's tears began to brew in her eyes, and she hurriedly ran over, throwing herself into the embrace of the person.

* * * * * * * * * *

Xiazhi joked with her, "I fear it was answered by a woman, wasn't it?"

Only Gu Nanting suddenly found that there was no sound in his heart

* * * * * * * * * *

Do you think you are not that way now

Xiao Yuhang protested, "Who are you talking about? It wasn't me."

Xiao Yuhang struggled in vain and shouted for help, "Dad, look quickly, my brother is bullying me"

He is not worthy! Summer Solstice stared at him as if he were about to eat him, yet Cheng Xiao still managed to smile: "What are you afraid of? I am a professional pilot. Just watch, I won't crash into her."

Miss BMW was enraged; she kicked the tire and shouted, "If you have the ability, don't leave!" Perhaps she hurt her foot from the kick, as she turned around with a tearful expression and sat back in her BMW. Amidst the continuous honking, she parked her beloved car by the roadside before starting to make a phone call

Feiyao's expression also changed upon seeing her

Miss BMW gritted her teeth: "Did I say something wrong? What kind of expression is that on your face?"

Cheng Xiao tilted her head and smiled, presenting an expression of "Thank you for your concern"

The newly licensed female driver, Xia Zhi, was still shaken and nervously reminded, "Coffee said that regardless of the circumstances, a rear-end collision is always the responsibility of the following vehicle"

* * * * * * * * * *

Feiyao knew she was asking about him. In Miss BMW's puzzled gaze, he admitted: "Yes."

Cheng Xiao's gaze sharpened, revealing a hint of danger, "Is that so?"

The bewildered Miss BMW continued to complain indignantly: "They rear-ended first, yet they scolded others!"

The rain gradually intensified, falling on his forehead. Gu Nanting raised his hand to shield his eyes and let out a long sigh

"You are insane! Impulsiveness is not an emotion you should possess!" Xia Zhi pushed her slightly and said, "Have you vented your anger? Now it is time to resolve our troubles."

The summer solstice is not taken lightly, "In order to save you from the depths of water and the flames of fire, I am also risking everything."

Feiyao rubbed her temples, feeling a sense of concern urging her to give up.

The city in the light rain is boundlessly silent, Gu Nanting stands tall on the balcony, holding a glass of red wine treasured by his father, quiet as if merging with the night.

It actually went through. To be precise, it is indeed her. At this moment, she is already using this number that he knows by heart.

He could only say: "Sorry, I typed it wrong"

"How can you be so sure that I have obtained his new address?"

Miss BMW raised her hand and chased after it

After more than ten hours of long-haul flight, it would be a lie to say he wasn't tired. He took a shower and surrendered himself to the large bed. He thought he wouldn't be able to sleep, especially since the recent events had been so unusual, and he had been suffering from insomnia for several consecutive days. However, he gradually fell asleep as the proud and exquisite face of Cheng Xiao emerged in his mind.

When the furious Miss BMW was taken away, Cheng Xiao looked at the onlookers around and calmly asked, "Are you all standing here waiting for me to charge you?"

Cheng Xiao, however, was solely focused on selecting music on the SD card

Certainly, there is no time to change anything

Miss BMW glared at Cheng Xiao: "Don't regret it!"

The summer solstice has turned over, "Who is it?"

Gu Nanting carried her into the living room as if he were holding a small bird: "I knew you would tell on me! Haven't you noticed that I've grown up to the point where Dad can't hit me anymore?"

Gu Nanting had a smile on his lips: "Dad, Aunt Xiao."

The voice and tone in the microphone, so familiar to oneself, are real to the point of being bewildering

The more she fears, the more energetic Cheng Xiao becomes, "With my affection for you expressed through coffee, how could I possibly leave the car for you when I go on a business trip? I wouldn't believe it even if you said it to death."

Cheng Xiao wrapped herself in the quilt, saying, "I was suddenly baptized."

Her words made Gu Nanting think of something, and he unconsciously paused his steps.
