Sweet Military Marriage: Mr. Jing, Please Spare Me!

"Why didn't you return home?"

Shen Feng Xing couldn't help but ask Mo Xi this question again, even though he had asked Jing Mo Chen earlier on.

"Shen Nan Kun and Xiao Lan Yu had always wanted me to be dead. If I returned home, I could put everyone else that I know in danger. Not only would the Jing, Lu, Yang, Ji, Bai, and those that we met be in danger, my companies and my people would all be in danger. At that time, they hadn't made any move on the Xiao family because they needed the Xiao family to be a cover for them. Hence, I didn't have to worry so much about you guys, and I could focus on finding out what Shen Nan Kun and the others were doing."

"Then, why did you look for me now?"

"Shen Nan Kun has yet to obtain all the shares of Xiao Corporation because Grandfather is holding onto them. I think Shen Nan Kun could harm anyone of you for the shares, and I don't want to give grandmother a heart attack by showing up suddenly. Hence, the only person I could approach was you..."

Mo Xi then started to explain to Shen Feng Xing everything that they know about Poker while they had their lunch together in the lounge. To be more exact, it was everyone else watching Mo Xi having her snacks because she had been busy just now, so she hadn't had lunch. However, because it was going to be dinner time very soon, and the others had already eaten, she decided to munch on slices of cakes to fill up her stomach a little.

"Husband, why aren't you eating?" Mo Xi asked while she ate her cake happily.

It had been quite a while ever since Mo Xi last had cake, so she was rather excited about it.

Jing Mo Chen laughed softly when he saw how happy Mo Xi was, and his hand naturally reached out to stroke her hair.

"I am not hungry. You can have my slice. Next time remember to have your meal on time. If not, not only would Ying Ying scold you, but I would also."

"Mm!"

Shen Feng Xing smiled when he looked at the two, and he even felt a little envious that the two couple be side by side even in such situations.

"Oh, right. Brother Feng Xing, could you think of a way to send grandmother away from grandfather for a while?"

"This would be a little tricky because grandmother is anxious about grandfather, and she has been staying by his side ever since the day he was hospitalized."

"I know… But I am worried that if she heard the news that grandfather had 'died' she would not be able to live. If we could keep the news from her, even if it were for a little while, it would be good."

"Don't you want to tell her about the plans?"

Sadness flashed across Mo Xi's eyes for a brief moment that no one could detect it, except Jing Mo Chen.

Jing Mo Chen held onto Mo Xi's hand under the table while Mo Xi spoke.

"Uh… Not yet… It would be a huge shock for the two of them to know that I am their granddaughter. It would take even more effort to make them believe me, especially since they had been hurt so many times by their own daughter. Now that grandfather is still unconscious, grandmother would be even more sėnsɨtɨvė, and she might not accept me easily as she might think that I am there to harm grandfather."

Mo Xi was sad because she had wanted to meet her grandparents, but based on what happened recently, she felt that her grandparents wouldn't believe her that easily. She felt as though she might not be able to return to the Xiao family quickly, and she was worried that they might never be able to trust her fully.

Mo Xi was also sad because she couldn't stop those tragedies in the past from happening, which caused Song Qiao and Xiao Rong Yao not to trust others easily.

More importantly, Mo Xi would be bringing Xiao Rong Yao and Song Qiao news about how Xiao Lan Xi died and perhaps even how Xiao Lan Ke died. She was also going to bring them the news about Shen Yu Rou not being their biological grandchild, but Shen Feng Xing was. Hence, her return was bound to bring them loads of sadness, and that was what she hated. She felt that this would make her grandparents lose even more faith in people.

On the one hand, it was a good thing because that would keep them safe from other bad people as they don't trust bad people easily. However, on the other hand, it was not a very good thing because Mo Xi was their grandchild, and yet they might not trust her.

"Ok… I will try to think of ways to send her to places where she wouldn't receive any of such news for a short while. Also, you don't have to worry that our grandparents wouldn't trust you because your eyes make people trust you easily and I am sure that they could feel the connection with you. They would be more happy than not to have you go back home."

Mo Xi felt calmed by Shen Feng Xing's words and Jing Mo Chen's hand, and she smiled happily once again, "Thank you, Brother Feng Xing!"

Shen Feng Xing and Mo Xi hit it off instantly when he knew that she wasn't like Shen Yu Ning and was more like him and Shen Yu Rou.

The two continued to talk happily while they had their small break from the stressful things outside.

Mo Xi also told Shen Feng Xing about why she had the identity of 'Princess Luana' and other important things, except Blue Diamond Entertainment because she wanted to surprise him with a piece of news later.
