Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

“Hmm?” Sheng Xiao said softly.

 “Your mother is so nice but I lied to her. I feel so sorry about it.” Mu Qiqi buried herself in Sheng Xiao’s embrace. “I like her very much just like how I like you.”

 Sheng Xiao hugged her tighter after he listened to Mu Qiqi. He said gently, “Surely, she undergoes a lot of things in her life. When the Sheng family was suppressed before, she even grabbed a knife and went for the negotiation. Do you think that she’ll be afraid of you?”

 Mu Qiqi looked up at him after she listened to what he said. “Your mother is indeed a strong and powerful woman.”

 “I’ll tell you more about it later on.” Sheng Xiao placed a kiss on her head again. Then, he patted her little hips. “Go and take your shower now.”

 Mu Qiqi then stood up. Before leaving, she turned around and looked at her, “Why don’t you come along with me?”

 Sheng Xiao’s eyes brightened all of a sudden. He put down his work, stood up, then hugged her.

 Surely, he would not reject her given that his little one had invited him warmly.

 After that, they enjoyed a great time in the bathroom. After their vigorous exercise, they lay in the bathtub with Mu Qiqi leaning against Sheng Xiao’s chest. She chuckled.

 “Why are you laughing?”

 “I’m laughing at my cousin, Shen Ruoyi. She dressed up nicely tonight just like a celebrity who is attending a dinner party. I know that she wants to leave a good impression in front of your mother but…”

 “But, my mother doesn’t even look at her.” Sheng Xiao closed his eyes softly and he seemed rather sexy and casual like that. “That’s why I asked you not to worry about it.”

 Mu Qiqi hugged Sheng Xiao tightly for fear that her happiness would disappear just like that. She had become so guilty just because Xiaoxiao’s mother was so nice. She cherished her happiness more as her guilt started deepening.

 Sheng Xiao felt Mu Qiqi tighten her grasp on him. He realized that she was thinking about her mother again.

 “If you think about all kinds of thoughts, surely I’ll punish you!”

 Mu Qiqi soon shook her head when she heard that. “I don’t want to. I’m exhausted…”

 “If you really want to know how my family will react when they learn about our relationship, you could find somebody to do an experiment.”

 “Who?”

 “Your dad!” Sheng Xiao said as he took a towel and helped Mu Qiqi out of the bathtub. The weather became colder now and he did not want his little one to get sick.

 “What if my dad tells Grandpa about it?”

 “Do you think that your dad will do such a stupid thing given how smart he is?”

 Mu Qiqi shook her head directly. “If I’m twenty years old now instead of eighteen years old, I might tell my dad about our relationship directly. I’ll even tell him that we’re living together now. But, I’m still too young and I can’t say much.”

 “Since it’s useless dwelling on that, why are you clinging on insistently? Aren’t you afraid of tiring yourself?” Sheng Xiao tilted his chin and kissed her softly. “What should I do, little one? Although you’re exhausted, I still… want you.”

 ***

 Suddenly, Sheng Xiao regretted slightly when he saw Mu Qiqi’s response. He regretted arranging their meeting and let Mu Qiqi know how his mother was.

 She always thought a lot. Now, he was afraid that she might be pressured deeply because of her guilt.

 He was not afraid that she might give up. He was just sorry for having to let her endure so much pressure.

 So, the first thing he needed to do was to deal with Shen Ruoyi. The following morning, Sheng Xiao called Jing Yun. “You go and invite Shen Ruoyi to come and work in Huang Yao. Just give her any post or any task. But, you need to place her at the center of gossip where she could never get in touch with me.”

 “Young Master, this…”

 “I want her to give up on me completely.”

 “Arrange some nice scenes for her and destroy every fantasy she ever had about me.”

 “Noted.” Jing Yun nodded his head. It meant that Sheng Xiao wanted to appear like a demon before Shen Ruoyi. “This is easy. Young Master, wait for my good news.”

 “Go and hint to my mother about it in order to avoid being troubled by Huang Yao when you carry out my plan.”

 Jing Yun received his order. He then went to meet Mama Sheng and informed her that Sheng Xiao wanted to hire a friend to work in Huang Yao. But, it would not be long.

 Mama Sheng frowned and asked Jing Yun the reason behind it.

 Jing Yun hinted to her. “Madam, did you find anything peculiar when you went to the Shen family yesterday other than meeting Miss Qiqi?”

 “For example?”

 “For example, somebody wanted to please you.”

 “Did you mean Ruoyi? Is she…”

 Mama Sheng stopped talking. But, Jing Yun soon replied, “Although it’s not proven yet, the young master doesn’t want to cause any more trouble. So, we need to resolve it immediately.”

 “Fine.” Mama Sheng nodded her head. “Just carry on. I’ll go and tell them which department it is but don’t involve a lot of people in this. It might affect Huang Yao.”

 “Madam, don’t worry. I know how to deal with it.”

 Sheng Xiao wanted to resolve this issue but Shen Ruoyi knew nothing about it. She was now situated in the middle of someone’s plan. Surely, she would be ecstatic when Jing Yun came and gave her the invitation.

 At the same time, Sheng Xiao informed Mu Qiqi beforehand.

 He hugged her from the back before she left for university. He said to her, “I made some arrangements to hire Shen Ruoyi to work in Huang Yao.”

 “Huh?” Mu Qiqi was puzzled.

 “Don’t worry. She’ll not have any chance to approach me but she’ll know a lot of gossip about me. Soon, she’ll start to hate me. She might even be afraid of me.”

 Mu Qiqi understood his meaning. She nodded her head. “But, don’t be too harsh on her. I can almost imagine how delighted Shen Ruoyi will be.”

“I just want to tell you about it beforehand for fear that you might be angry with me.”

 “Angry?” Mu Qiqi wiped her face and pretended to be naive. “Xiaoxiao, you’re the most handsome and powerful man in this world.”

 She knew how to coax him…

 That was how she had always treated him!

 ***

 In fact, Jing Yun always acted fast. He planned everything nicely in that morning itself. At noon, he went to the Shen family and handed her the invitation letter. But, Shen Ruoyi’s university major had nothing to do with Huang Yao. So, Jing Yun tried his best to come out with so many ways. Finally, he found a department which would suit her.

 Shen Ruoyi was delighted when she received the news just like what Mu Qiqi said she would be.

 She never thought that happiness could come to her so soon.

 It meant that she could meet Sheng Xiao when she started working there. However, she did not even know that it would be impossible for her to meet Sheng Xiao given the kind of department that she was going to work for. In fact, Sheng Xiao did not have any real post in Huang Yao so he could come and go whenever he wanted.
