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

"Who exactly are you working with? Why can't you just tell us?"

"Grandmother, you will know when the time comes. If I let you know now, a lot of lives could be in danger and we could lose our only chance to uncover the past and attain our freedom again."

"…"

Song Qiao kept quiet as she was angry and she didn't know what to say.

Song Qiao was angry because she was worried about what was going on, and that they were keeping things from her. She didn't like the feeling of knowing that there was something wrong, and yet not knowing what it was. At the same time, she felt useless that she couldn't be of any help to them and could only sit around and watch things happen. She wanted to help them as much as she wanted them to be safe.

"Grandmother, the one that is in danger isn't just us. I am also not the one that is putting myself in danger. There are people out there, putting their lives in danger to protect us. All that I am doing right now is to make sure that their plans go smoothly so that I can minimize the harm that they are facing. Without them, grandfather would have died long ago because Shen Nan Kun bought people to put drugs in grandfather's IV drop…"

"What?" Song Qiao and Shen Yu Rou stood up instantly.

Song Qiao's mind stopped working the moment she heard Shen Feng Xing saying that Shen Nan Kun bought people to put drugs into Xiao Rong Yao's IV drop. The only thing on her mind was to check on her husband to make sure that he was alright, and when she heard the steady beating of his heart, her tensed body relaxed.

Shen Yu Rou then asked Shen Feng Xing, "So, you mean that they stopped things from happening?"

"Yes. Without them, you, me and grandmother, could have either been captured or killed already. Without them, I wouldn't have known so much about our past. I wouldn't have known where I came from."

Song Qiao looked at Xiao Rong Yao then at Shen Feng Xing for a while as she held onto Xiao Rong Yao's hand.

The more Shen Feng Xing spoke, the more Song Qiao felt her hopes going up. She had a feeling that the people helping them would be very important to her and Xiao Rong Yao. She felt that it could just be her children coming back to life even though it was impossible since they had died long ago. Nonetheless, she still felt that strong connection. She couldn't help but feel her heart scrunched up in pain with the thought of those people helping them being in danger.

"Can you at least promise me one thing?" Song Qiao asked after a short moment of silence.

"What is it about?" Shen Feng Xing asked.

"Promise me that all of you put your safety first. I can't lose any more people…" Song Qiao's voice trembled as the thought of how their Xiao family had crumbled over the years flashed across her mind.

However, Shen Feng Xing kept quiet because their plan never had Mo Xi's or Jing Mo Chen's safety as their priority. Their plan was betting on her life and on his life… It was a bet of all or nothing with her life and his life.

"Promise me?" Song Qiao urged once again.

Shen Feng Xing sighed, "I promise you."

At M & M Hotel.

Mo Xi returned to the hotel quickly after everything had been settled.

Now, all they had to do was wait for their enemies to capture her.

Some time later, after Mo Xi had bathed, Xue Yue entered her room with a folder.

"Xi, the results are out."

Mo Xi dried her hair with one hand while she took the folder from Xue Yue with her other hand. She looked through the materials and nodded with a serious expression.

"Just as we expected… I guess I will have to talk to Cayden about this then…"

Xue Yue then added on, "I heard that there was some commotion today."

"You mean the traffic accident?"

"No. There was a commotion on Poker's side somewhere overseas."

Mo Xi's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion instantly, "How so?"

"A group of Poker's people went overseas all of a sudden today and everything was very hectic."

"Internal conflict?"

"No. It seemed like someone escaped from overseas. Poker's members were searching high and low, and they even sent groups of people to wait at the airport, harbor, and every place possible."

"Who could it be?"

"We are still trying to find out but the person that had escaped seems to have someone helping as they hid themselves up very well."

"So, you mean there is someone that betrayed Poker?"

"Sort of."

Mo Xi then nodded with a look of interest on her face, "Interesting… Continue to try to find out who is the one that escaped. Other than that, rest early. You guys had a long day and we are going to have a long fight with Poker, so rest well."

"Mm. You too."

Mo Xi then called Cayden after Xue Yue left.

"I have some news for you."

"I hope it is good though you only bring bad news to me most of the time…" Cayden mumbled the last few words.

"I can't say that it is good but I also can't say that it is bad."

"What is it then?"

"Is Ellington beside you now?"

When Cayden heard Mo Xi's words, he looked at Ellington, who was sleeping, instinctively before he went out.

"I am alone now. What is it about?" Cayden's voice turned serious.

"You have a daughter. I found the real Princess Luana."

"You aren't joking, are you?"

"What makes you think that I would joke with you about such things?" Mo Xi replied in an equally serious tone.
