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

Dining room.

Lunch was served the moment they settled down.

"Mo Chen, little Xi, sit beside me today," Grandpa Ji said happily.

Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen sat beside grandpa Ji obediently and Mo Xi started to look at the food in front of her. Grandpa Ji thought that Mo Xi was very hungry, so he chuckled and picked up his bowl of soup to drink. As grandpa Ji was about to drink the soup, Mo Xi stopped him immediately as she sensed a different scent coming from grandpa Ji's bowl of soup.

"Grandpa Ji, please wait."

"Mm? What's wrong?"

"There's something wrong with the soup."

"What?!" Ji Tian Ping asked in shock.

"Grandpa Ji's soup had been drugged."

"How could it be?!"

"There are antidepressant drugs in the soup, this is the cause of grandpa Ji having signs of early dementia. In fact, grandpa Ji doesn't have early dementia, his memory problems were caused by the antidepressant drugs," Mo Xi explained calmly.

"WHAT?!" Grandpa Ji and Ji Tian Ping were shocked once again.

"Who did it?!" Ji Tian Ping asked the servants around the dining room angrily.

The servants were all frightened by the sudden uproar and they kept quiet.

Mo Xi looked at all the servants in their eyes and didn't spot anyone who could have done it.

"It might be the cook," Mo Xi said.

"Go get the cook here immediately!" Ji Tian Ping shouted.

"Yes, Sir!" The butler replied and left the room.

Two minutes later, a woman appeared.

Mo Xi looked at her and knew it was her.

The woman looked at Ji Tian Ping happily.

"Were you the one that drugged my father's food?!"

The woman's eyes wavered for a moment and said, "Drug old master's food? Was the old master's food drugged?! Who?! Who did it?!"

Mo Xi scoffed and said, "Your acting needs to be improved."

"Are you saying that I am the one who drugged old master's food?! Sir, do you believe what she said? I have been serving this house for years, you know me the best, right?" Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.

Playing white lotus? I will show you how to act like a white lotus!

"Brother Yang, Uncle Ji, Grandpa Ji, although we have just met, I mean well for all of you… If… If you all don't believe what I said… Then… I will leave now… It would be best if I don't come here again…" Mo Xi said with teary eyes.

Ji Zheng Yang chuckled as he saw how Mo Xi played white lotus. On the other hand, Ji Tian Ping and grandpa Ji were really worried because they really like Mo Xi.

"I suggest that you be honest with us while we are still patient," Ji Tian Ping said quickly.

"I am speaking the truth! I didn't!"

"Really?" Jing Mo Chen asked as he stood up.

The woman was frightened by the cold aura around Jing Mo Chen that she didn't speak further.

"I have something interesting here to show you all," Jing Mo Chen said as he took out his phone.

Jing Mo Chen opened a video and clicked on the play button.

"Aunt Zhang, have you been adding the drugs I gave you into old master's food?"

"Of course, I have been adding it in all his meals."

"Good. You should know that only when the old master is no longer in control, will you be able to become the madam of our house. When the old master's no longer in a clear mind, I can get the company easily. When he is not around anymore, and I take over the company, I will be able to support your plan in sleeping with my brother. Then, brother would have no choice but to marry you."

"Thank you, second lady!"

The video ended and aunt Zhang fell onto the floor in despair.

"No… No… NO! That video is fake!"

"Fake? Do you think that we are so free?" Jing Mo Chen asked coldly.

"Sir! You cannot believe them! That video is fake! I would never do such things!"

"Enough!" Ji Tian Ping shouted angrily.

"Whether the video is fake or not, all we have to do is send it for analysis," Mo Xi said with reddish eyes.

Jing Mo Chen was once again surprised by how well Mo Xi could act as a white lotus.

"Uncle Chen send grandfather's soup for analysis! Bring her out of this room and lock her up, make sure that she cannot escape!" Ji Zheng Yang told the butler angrily.

"Yes, young master!"

On the other hand, grandpa Ji was quiet because he still couldn't believe that his daughter would want to harm him just for the company.

Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen noticed grandpa Ji's changes in emotion, so they squatted beside grandpa Ji and patted grandpa Ji's hand.

"Grandpa Ji, don't be too sad, alright? At least we found out the truth earlier, that way we can still put an end to things before they are too late," Mo Xi said as she tried to comfort him.

Ji Zheng Yang went beside grandpa Ji as well and hugged him, "Grandpa… Xi is right… The earlier we found out the better it is…"

Tears rolled down grandpa Ji's face as he thought about his beloved daughter trying to harm him. His wife passed away at the age of 45 after giving birth to his daughter, that was why he doted on her the most. He never expected that his own daughter would harm him.

"Dad…" Ji Tian Ping was angered and sad at the same time.

After a while, grandpa Ji managed to calm down and he said, "Call Tian Shan to come back from overseas now."

"Mm," Ji Tian Ping replied and called Ji Tian Shan immediately.

Six hours later.

"Dad! Why did you suddenly ask me to come?" Ji Tian Shan asked sweetly.

"Sit."

"Okies. Oh right, dad how have you been recently?"

"I just went to see the doctor yesterday and he said that I am having signs of early dementia… That is why I called you back."
