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

"You guys have people in the underworld side as well? You even know President Ji?"

"Xi met White Wolf's leader by accident, and they became friends. She saved their people's lives before, so they trust her a lot and also want to help out in this matter because the reason why they moved to this city was to keep the peace in the underworld. President Ji's matter is a long story. You can get Xi and Mo Chen to tell you guys the story when they are back."

Song Qiao and the others were shocked, but they felt relieved at the same time because at least they knew that there were many people out there working together and not Jing Mo Chen and the others working alone.

"What are you all going to do after things escalate? According to the news just now, the people are trying to bring down the Lu and Jing family together at once by framing them. Whatever that fake person was saying sounds reasonable, and people are going to believe her easily. Are you sure that you guys can turn things around if things escalate further?" Shen Yu Rou then asked as she had seen the video, and she was worried about Mo Xi's safety as well as the others.

"Yes. Mo Chen and Xi have people in the entertainment industry that know them personally. This will then be the turning point because they will be debunking whatever that the fake Mo Xi had said. Everyone would then know that there is someone out there pretending to be the real Mo Xi, and this way, no matter what the person had said, people would remain skeptical about it."

Shen Yu Rou then nodded in understanding.

Song Qiao then questioned, "Do you know who is the person pretending to be Xi?"

Shen Feng Xing contemplated for a moment before he spoke, "… Yu Ning."

"Yu Ning?"

Song Qiao and Xiao Rong Yao were shocked, but they didn't seem too shocked as they had already expected Shen Yu Ning to be with Shen Nan Kun. That was because Xiao Lan Yu had already escaped, and that meant that Shen Nan Kun was the one that brought her away. Hence, it wasn't a big surprise that their whole family was in it together.

"… Grandmother, don't think too much about it…" Shen Feng Xing then comforted as he was worried that it would affect their health.

Song Qiao and Xiao Rong Yao laughed, "You don't have to comfort us. The moment we heard that Lan Yu was the one that killed Lan Ke and Lan Xi, we gave up on that daughter already. So, Yu Ning isn't our granddaughter as well. We only have you three, Feng Xing, Yu Rou, and Xi. You three will always be our grandchildren, no matter what happens."

Shen Feng Xing and Shen Yu Rou smiled upon hearing Xiao Rong Yao's words.

Back at the abandoned house.

Mo Xi's face was filled with sweat, and her hair was wet from the water and the sweat. Her lips were pale from dehydration and hunger, and she was so drained that she could only close her eyes to conserve energy.

Then, someone came in, and Mo Xi looked up instinctively. However, she couldn't see clearly. The only thing that she could see was that the person was a man and had an eyepatch over his left eye. She then blinked her eyes rapidly to see better. By the time she could see everything clearly, the person had already appeared in front of her.

The face was extremely unfamiliar, but the pair of eyes told Mo Xi that the person in front of her was the person she deeply missed. Her eyes almost widened in surprise, and she almost leaped into the person's arms. However, she kept her expression and everything under control.

Jing Mo Chen placed a sandwich and a bottle of water on the table before he turned to Mo Xi to remove everything that was tied around her.

Jing Mo Chen opened up the bottle of water with a straight face and gave it to Mo Xi.

Mo Xi sipped the water as her throat was slightly burning from the dryness, and after a few moments, she finished the bottle of water.

"Can you bring me to the toilet?" Mo Xi asked.

Jing Mo Chen's face remained stern, but he nodded, "Be quick."

"I need to shower."

Jing Mo Chen then went to grab a towel and brought Mo Xi to the toilet. He wanted to follow her in, but she stopped and turned around when she felt that he wasn't going to stop following her.

"Isn't it inappropriate for a man to follow me into the toilet?"

"I was given instructions to follow you wherever you go, even when you go to shower."

"This is how you guys treat a princess?"

"I wouldn't look at you. I just have to follow you in."

"And, how would I know whether you would do anything to me or whether you would peek at me?"

"I wouldn't."

Mo Xi sighed before she went into the washroom, "Turn around and make sure you don't look. If not, I will poke your eyes out."

Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen entered the washroom together before he closed the door. Once he closed the door, he switched on the showerhead and quickly hugged her tightly.

"I missed you so much… I was so worried…" Jing Mo Chen whispered as he breathed in her scent as that was the only thing that could calm him down.

Mo Xi kept quiet for a moment as she was still dizzy from the dehydration earlier on, but she still hooked her arms around Jing Mo Chen's neck and brought herself as close to him as she could.

"How did you get in here?"

"Donovan."

"Donovan?"

"Mm. He got one of Poker's people away, and I replaced that person."
