"Since everyone is here, let's start the lunch. Little Xi, come sit beside me and Mo Chen!" Yang Shu Ling said while she held Mo Xi's hand. Mo Xi hand was still in Jing Mo Chen's palm, so she dragged Jing Mo Chen along with her.

At the dining table.

"Mo Xi, your parents are fine with you dating at such a young age?" Shen Yu Ning asked.

"I was an orphan…" Mo Xi was once again interrupted by Shen Yu Ning.

"Ah?! You are an orphan?! Then, wouldn't you be considered someone without background??"

Mo Xi ignored her and continued, "However, my parents are supportive of me and Mo Chen's relationship."

"Little Xi's parents have said that they are supportive."

"Ah? Who're your parents? Didn't you say that you are an orphan? Are you sure they are not just gold diggers that are trying to rip off some benefits from Mo Chen?"

Hearing this everyone in the Jing family went silent, not because they were afraid that Mo Xi parents would be gold diggers. It was because they were annoyed by Shen Yu Ning's words.

Mo Xi turned to Shen Yu Ning with a cold gaze and said, "Firstly, I said that I was an orphan, but it doesn't mean that I can't have a family now. Secondly, my parents are Lu Jin Xiao's parents. Thirdly, I am sure every member of the Jing family knows the Lu family well."

Mo Xi's eyes returned to the innocent and harmless look after she finished speaking, as though the coldness that Shen Yu Ning saw in Mo Xi's eyes was her imagination.

"Little Xi! Lu family recognized you as their daughter?" Yang Shu Ling asked excitedly.

"Mm, you can call them to confirm this."

"HAHAHAHA! That's great!" Jing Cang laughed.

Shen Yu Ning's grip on the chopsticks tightened and she shot Mo Xi a glare that was so quick, no one could notice it. However, Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen obviously sensed it but chose to ignore her once again.

After lunch, Shen Yu Ning left as she said that she had work to do. However, she didn't leave immediately, instead, she lingered outside for a while to hear what they were going to say. After ten minutes, Shen Yu Ning left as she felt that they weren't going to say anything important.

Once Mo Xi felt that Shen Yu Ning was no longer around, she turned to look at the members of Jing family. They were all sitting in the living room, waiting for her to say what she wanted to say earlier on.

Jing Mo Chen knew that Mo Xi was going to tell them everything, so he walked towards Mo Xi and gave her a tight hug. He then placed a kiss on Mo Xi's eyelids and said, "Don't worry, I will always be here for you."

Mo Xi's face went red as Jing Mo Chen hugged and kissed her in front of so many elders and an underage boy.

Mo Xi took a deep breath, walked away from Jing Mo Chen to stand in front of the Jing family and started to explain everything to them.

Five minutes later, "… … I will not reveal my identity unless needed."

The whole living room was silent, they are people who have seen a lot and they were not that surprised to hear what Mo Xi said after all they had thought Mo Xi could be someone from the underworld. Hearing that Mo Xi wasn't had made them felt relieved.

"Why did you tell us everything? Aren't you afraid that we would exploit you or make use of you?" Jing Cang asked.

"As I said, I could see what you all are thinking about. The eyes are the window of one's soul, I can see that you are all righteous people, and you all accept me for who I am. The least I could do is to let you all know who I really am. Trust works both ways. If I kept things from you all, it wouldn't be fair since you all trust me. The fact that you all haven't thrown me out right now or even think that I am a freak are even more reasons why I should speak the truth. I don't like lying to people that I trust and who trusts me. Moreover, I believe that you all can accept the truth, so I don't have any point in lying."

After Mo Xi finished, the room went silent again for a moment before laughter erupted.

"HAHAHAHA! Mo Chen, you really have a good sight for picking a wife! Honest and lovable! Our family is fortunate to have her as our daughter-in-law!" Jing Cang patted Jing Mo Chen's shoulder.

On the other hand, Yang Shu Ling hugged Mo Xi tightly after hearing what Jing Cang, "Little Xi! Mo Chen's father has agreed on your marriage! We are a family now!"

Mo Xi turned to look at Jing Mo Chen and Jing Mo Chen too looked at Mo Xi. They laughed while they immersed themselves in happiness.

"Wait! Wait! Am I dreaming?! I am having a breakdown now, information overload!" Jing Bo Chuan said as he pinched his cheeks and rubbed his head.

Jing Mo Teng and Ling Xuan laughed and patted their son's head and said, "You are not dreaming."

"Little Xi, thank you for helping our son! None of us could control his temper or get him to study, but you managed to." Jing Mo Teng said with thankfulness in his voice.

"I just did what I could, nothing to thank me for, besides he worked hard himself."

"Ah Cang, let's go to Lu house tomorrow and discuss their wedding! We have to make sure that everyone knows that our son is getting married! Tonight, we have to make things clear with the Xiao family."

"Sorry! Can I request that we don't publicize our marriage first?" Mo Xi said urgently.

"Why?" Jing Cang asked questioningly.
