May The Rest Of My Life Be Sweet To You ( Machine Translation )

"Someone, open that door! What's going on? Is there lynching going on in our house?" Qin Ze questioned He Fen coldly.

He Fen's expression instantly turned grim. Qin Ze was the head of the family and no one dared to disobey his orders. What worried her the most was that Qin Sheng's imprisonment would implicate her granddaughter... Her darling granddaughter...

The servant quickly took out the spare key and opened the door.

Qin Sheng bang on the door and in a loud voice said, "Thank you, grandfather, for saving me. Otherwise, I could've been trapped and I might've starved to death."

"Where's Yunting? Let her out now!" Qin Ze's tone was heavy.

"Master, don't listen to Qin Sheng's nonsense. You know how bad Qin Sheng's homework is, how she lies. I asked Yunting to help her review her homework. Yunting locked her in the room because she was afraid that she wouldn't finish her work and would run away. After all, what did she rank last time in her exams? She needed the discipline," He Fen explained quickly.

Qin Ze's cold eyes landed on Qin Sheng's face as she came sheepishly out of the room. His face darkened. "Go into my study."

Qin Sheng closed her eyes and sighed. She'd complained about Qin Yunting locking her in the room, but He Fen had complained about her first. She could only follow Qin Ze into the study.

He Fen watched Qin Ze take Qin Sheng away and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She took out her phone and called Qin Yunting. "Yunting, come back quickly! Your grandfather knows about you locking up Qin Sheng."

"If he knows, then he knows. Anyway, grandfather doesn't like her; why would he take her side?" Qin Yunting said unhappily.

"But what if Grandfather does take her side? Qin Sheng said you locked her up for being mean. You need to defend yourself. Hurry up and come back now!" He Fen said anxiously.

If it weren't for Qin Ze's acquiescence, Gong Mochen wouldn't have been able to raise Qin Sheng like a princess...

This was what she was most worried about. Qin Ze's attitude towards Qin Sheng was cold, but there seemed to be a soft streak at times, which made her feel that Qin Ze wasn't as heartless to Qin Sheng as he seemed on the surface.

"I'll come back now!" Qin Yunting cursed Qin Sheng and reluctantly said goodbye to her boyfriend.

In the study, Qin Sheng stood in front of the desk and looked at her grandfather, who was sitting opposite her, unconvinced. She didn't owe him anything. Why did he treat her with such contempt? As for her father's death, she was the victim, right?

Qin Ze flipped through the exam paper that Qin Sheng had been working on and threw it on the table. He looked at Qin Sheng, scowling. Her stubborn personality was very much like her father's, and her face was very much like her mother's...

"I didn't write down the basic questions, but I got the additional questions right," said Qin Sheng sheepishly.

Qin Sheng's heart lurched in her chest. She didn't expect her grandfather to look at her exam paper. The additional questions were usually the most complicated and difficult ones. She liked to challenge herself with difficult questions. She was sure she'd answered them correctly. However, it seemed that she couldn't make sense of all the basic questions and had left them blank...

She hesitated and didn't know what to say to Qin Ze. Then Qin Ze stood up and walked out of the study.

"You will stand here until you understand obedience. That is your punishment for not finishing your work," said Qin Ze, his words floating behind him as he left.

***

After a long time, the clock ticking away in the background, Qin Sheng only wanted to curse. She was standing like a stone, and Gong Mochen hadn't come back yet.

She rubbed her cramping leg. It seemed that her grandfather was determined to punish her. Only Gong Mochen could save her from this situation.

"Qin Sheng!"

A girl's sharp voice echoed behind Qin Sheng. She didn't need to turn around to know that Qin Yunting had returned.

"Cousin, you're back so soon? Why are you so angry? Tsk, unsatisfied women always have a bad temper!" Qin Sheng said.

Qin Yunting's face turned red. "Who's unsatisfied? Only a dirty person like you would have such dirty thoughts!"

Qin Sheng sneered. A girl might look innocent on the surface, but they had usually done a lot of dirty things.

"You call me dirty and say I have dirty thought, but I wonder how many times you've done dirty things? Oh, cousin, don't act so innocent all the time."

Qin Yunting almost choked and couldn't say a word for a moment. Then she changed the subject and said, "You ate all the snacks I hid. I'll get you back for this!"

"Oh... does cousin really hide snacks? I don't know if second aunt knows? It's okay though... If you want to complain, go ahead!" Qin Sheng looked at Qin Yunting deviously.

Qin Yunting clenched her fists into tight balls. Qin Sheng had backed her into a corner. Damn it! If her mother found out, she would have no place to hide snacks in the future.

"Just you wait, Qin Sheng!" she said fiercely and turned to leave.

Qin Sheng pursed her lips. She had eaten her cousin's snacks and scribbled all over her homework. That was enough revenge for her!

When the big bell in the study rang, Qin Sheng saw that it was six o'clock in the evening.

Qin Ze walked into the study and sat on his executive-style chair, an arrogant expression spread on his face.

"Have you learnt your lesson?" Qin Ze asked.

Qin Sheng didn't know what to say for a moment, mouth opening and closing. He clearly wanted her to start doing well with her homework... wanted her to fall in line and become an angel.

"Yes, I have learnt my lesson..."

Learnt her lesson... ha! She wanted Gong Mochen most of all, no matter what price she had to pay. It was that simple.

Qin Ze raised his hand. "If you've learnt your lesson, do what you want to do. I won't stop you... But remember, you're a grown-up now. No matter what you do, you have to bear the consequences. Now come out and eat."

Qin Sheng was dumbfounded. Did her grandfather know that she wanted her uncle? And he'd actually said she could do what she wanted to do... but... there would be consequences.

When Qin Sheng arrived at the restaurant, everyone was seated. Qin Ze and He Fen sat in the main seats. The first seat on their left was empty. It was for Second Uncle, but he wasn't here. Then there was second aunt Zheng Min and her daughter, Qin Yunting, to their right. Qin Zixian and Gong Mochen were sat next to each other...

"Let's eat."

Following Qin Ze's instructions, everyone picked up their chopsticks.

Qin Sheng sat beside Gong Mochen. She scooped some rice from the bowl and looked at Qin Zixian. She didn't know what Qin Zixian whispered in Gong Mochen's ear, but she saw Qin Zixian giggling coquettishly. And Qin Zixian kept serving food to Gong Mochen.

Qin Sheng's heart suddenly sank. Qin Zixian had only been Gong Mochen's secretary for one day, but she was already much closer to Gong Mochen now. Her little heart twisted in pain.

With her feet on the ground, she quietly took off her shoes and kicked Gong Mochen's leg.

Gong Mochen turned his head and glared at the small woman, while the girl looked back at him with an innocent expression spread on her face. She smiled impishly, as if the little devil who was causing trouble wasn't her...

"Qin Sheng!" Gong Mochen's words came out from between his teeth.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Qin Sheng batted her fluttery eyelashes. She didn't believe he would dare to say anything in front of the rest of the family.

"Didn't I teach you the rules? Sit up straight!" Gong Mochen hissed.

"Oh Uncle, what's wrong? Why is your face so red?" Qin Sheng asked, grinning from ear to ear.
