"Eve… Eve! E!"

"Bingo. As for "Eric", it was a misunderstanding, most people thought that the founder is a man, so when some people saw my cursive signature, they thought it was Eric."

"WTS!"

"Moving on, the five board of directors. The first two are France and London. The two of them deals with companies and contracts regarding sciences and researches. The third one is Elaine, she is a jewelry designer and producer. I met her on the streets, and I knew that her husband was cheating on her the moment I saw her husband, so I helped her, and she joined. Fourth, Max, boss of a cosmetics company. His wife was a Professor of Chemistry at YY University, so they created the cosmetics company. However, after his wife passed away, the company was involved in copying other company's work. The company was very important to him because it was his and his wife's hard work, so I helped them because I knew someone in his company was selling him out. After that, he joined as well. The last one, Jack, computer science and IT genius. The youngest among the board of directors, I met him at YY University, and I asked him to join. The five board of directors handled the meetings of other company according to the fields involved. As for why I never I showed up, at what age did I created E's Corporation?"

"A… Around twelve or thirteen…"

"Would you believe I created them if all these didn't happen?"

"N… No…"

"Do you think it is safe for a twelve-year-old girl to drink and meet clients?"

"N…No…"

"So, do you think this is a good enough reason?"

"M…Mmm."

"Furthermore, I do show up, just with another identity. I have to make sure that they are safe as well, and that is the only way I can see whether the companies we are working with are good or bad people."

Lu Jin Xiao went quiet once again.

"That's why I am a dangerous person as well. If one day my identity gets exposed to the public, I might bring trouble to you all."

"HAHAHAHA! You truly are a good girl! However, little Xi, you have to believe that we can protect ourselves and you." Grandpa Lu laughed after he snapped back from the shock.

"Yes! Yes! We are the Lu's so no matter what, we can protect you and ourselves. So, Mo Xi, just agree on being our daughter, alright?" Ye Juan An agreed with what grandpa Lu said as she really like Mo Xi and she also believes that they can protect themselves.

Mo Xi eyes reddened upon hearing their words, tears rolled down her face. Mo Xi didn't know why, but she was really touched, and she nodded her head intuitively, "Thank you"

"Don't need to say thank you, we are a family now!" Grandma Lu said as she got up with a wide smile and pulled Mo Xi into a hug.

"Very good!" Grandpa Lu laughed along while being very happy about having Mo Xi as his granddaughter.

"Mo Xi, this will be your home from now onwards, remember to come back often for dinner!" Lu Qing Min said as he patted Mo Xi's head.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad and mom, I hope that you all can keep whatever that I said a secret within our family. I don't wish for people to know about my identity, at least not now. I hope that I can live a normal life here for now."

Jing Mo Chen sat by Mo Xi's side and smiled along, feeling very elated that Mo Xi had found herself a family. A family that she can depend on, a family that can support her, a family that can make her feel safe and a family that can make her be herself.

"Wow! I finally have a younger sister! Wait! Does this mean that you will have to call me 'older brother' in the future?" Lu Jin Xiao asked Jing Mo Chen excitedly.

Mo Xi chuckled at the thought of Jing Mo Chen having to call Lu Jin Xiao older brother.

Jing Mo Chen's face blackened almost instantly, and he looked at Mo Xi with a pitiful look.

"Brother, if you don't want me to spill your secrets, please behave well." Mo Xi said as she looked at Lu Jin Xiao with a cunning smile.

"Since… Since when I have a secret?"

"Hmmm, as far as I know, your secret has been kept for about five years."

"No! I don't have!"

"You know my eyes can tell what you are thinking, right?"

Lu Jin Xiao was scared for a moment and became well behaved immediately.

"Little Xi, what is Jin Xiao's secret?" Ye Juan An asked in surprised.

"Mom! Mom! I am not hiding any secrets!" Lu Jin Xiao replied hurriedly.

"Mom, you will know in the future, for now, let him keep his secret a secret." Mo Xi said as she patted Ye Juan An's hands.

"Wait! Little Xi, you two are dating already?!" Lu Qing Min asked hurriedly.

"Yes…" Mo Xi saw the concern that Lu Qing Min had and answered hesitantly.

"Mo Chen! How could you do this?! Your parents are still trying to push you and Shen Yu Ning to get married, and yet you are dating little Xi now?! Do you know what people will say about little Xi?! People would think that she is the third party! Even if you really like little Xi, you can't do such things! You should at least make it clear to the Xiao's and your family before you two start dating!"

"Dad… It's fine, don't worry… I never bothered about people talking about me before, and Mo Chen had already spoken to his parents about it."

"Uncle Lu, I rejected Xiao family long ago and as for my parents, they knew that I like little Xi since then. My parents were only concerned about me not getting married even though I'm turning thirty soon, and they thought that little Xi could never be found, so they tried to push the marriage. I had also arranged for my family to meet her next Saturday, and I have also applied for the marriage report form, I'm sure they will understand that Mo Xi is the only one for me. So, I hope that uncle Lu will support our decision to be together."

Although Lu Qing Min was still angry that Mo Xi might be seen as a third party by outsiders, hearing that Jing Mo Chen had already done what he should have done, he felt much better.

"Mm."

They chatted for a while more before Mo Xi left with Jing Mo Chen.
