Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Lin Mu’an was handsome. His almond-shaped eyes were especially attractive. His look told people that he was an affectionate and flirty man. He already showed his skills when he talked to them just now.

 “Mu’an, you look great with Qiqi.” Shen Ruoyi commented.

 “Do I? Thanks, Sister Ruoyi. But…” Lin Mu’an glanced at Sheng Xiao who was sitting beside Mu Qiqi. He greeted him. “Hello, Crown Prince.”

 Sheng Xiao raised his head and took a glance at Lin Mu’an. His glance made Lin Mu’an realize something and said, “But I think Miss Qiqi will not like to be controlled by the elders. Me, too.”

 Sheng Xiao pointed his chin at Lin Mu’an. He expressed his satisfaction with his eyes, as if saying he was glad Lin Mu’an had said that.

 Lin Mu’an smirked and felt relieved. Was Grandpa Shen pulling his leg? How could he have the chance to get to know a person who was under Sheng Xiao’s protection? Other people might not be able to notice it, but he was an experienced man in love. This man’s eyes were clearly threatening.

 “You can cultivate your relationship slowly.”

 “Sister Ruoyi, there are many guests tonight. I can’t stay here for too long. I shall get going now. Miss Qiqi, it’s nice meeting you.”

 Lin Mu’an was a smart one. He did not dare to offend Sheng Xiao.

 Mu Qiqi found Lin Mu’an quite likeable. At least he was smarter than Shen Ruoyi.

 She knew why Shen Ruoyi was so fired up in matchmaking her with Lin Mu’an. First, she wanted Mu Qiqi to owe her a debt of gratitude. Second, she wanted to get close to Sheng Xiao.

 But she did not know that her action was already making Sheng Xiao want to choke her to death.

 Soon, all the people had got another topic for their gossip. Mu Qiqi did not even budge when Lin Mu’an took the initiative to get to know her. They were eager to know what her charm was that even Sheng Xiao was being so protective of that little girl.

 Shen Ruoyi was so jealous that she was on the verge of going crazy. Although she did not realize it, her tone was sour. “Uncle Xiao, you are indeed very nice to Qiqi.”

 “Don’t eat too much, your stomach will hurt. “Sheng Xiao ignored Shen Ruoyi and reminded Mu Qiqi in soft whisper.

 Shen Ruoyi felt awkward and walked away.

 The few boys who had a fight with Mu Qiqi just now laughed at Shen Ruoyi. “You see her as your sister. But she does not seem to think the same. Look, she does not even look at you.”

 Shen Ruoyi glared at them. She did not like what they said. But it was true.

 She was being so nice to Mu Qiqi, but Mu Qiqi did not take her seriously at all.

 1Thinking of this, Shen Ruoyi squeezed her clutch bag.

 When Mu Qiqi had the limelight at the banquet, she did not care. But when Mu Qiqi had gotten all of Sheng Xiao’s attention, she could bear it no longer. She thought that she should not be hesitant anymore. So, when everyone was gathering in the banquet hall, Shen Ruoyi went to the washroom. She approached a staff and ordered the staff to do something.

 On the other hand, Mu Qiqi saw that everyone was looking at her direction, so she said, “You should go around the hall or I will become the enemy of the whole nation.”

 “What are you afraid of?” Sheng Xiao teased her. But, in the end, he got up and walked to the elders and chatted with them.

 Of course, the guests were curious about the reason why he was being so protective of Mu Qiqi.

 “You seem to like the little girl very much. Is there any particular reason for that?” The guests obviously wanted to listen to the gossip.

 “That little one saved my life once. She is my savior.” Sheng Xiao answered with a smile, holding his wine glass. “So, I cannot stand seeing people bully her.”

 The guests suddenly understood why Sheng Xiao was so nice to her. They apparently had an entanglement.

 “Then you should absolutely thank her…”

 Sheng Xiao purposely said that Mu Qiqi was his savior so that they would stop guessing wildly. His intention was to tell the people that they could not touch Mu Qiqi because she was someone Sheng Xiao was thankful to.

 “The girl is so lucky to have your protection. She must have done great deeds in her past three lifetimes.”

 Lin Mu’an saw it and rolled his eyes. Sheng Xiao could fool the elders but not him. His eyes could easily see through their secret. He knew Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi had a special relationship.

 Of course, he would not offend the crown prince for no reason. He would not want to die. After all, he liked to see lovers get together. But, didn’t they mind their uncle-niece relationship? Moreover, he found Mu Qiqi an interesting girl. She could fight with five boys at a time. She was an unusually brave girl unlike the other young ladies.

 He was looking forward to the progress of their relationship. He wanted to know how far they could go.

 In his experience, love with much hindrance always ended in vain.

 Moreover, it was happening to the crown prince. He was a Sheng…

 …

 The event was about to start so the guests entered the dining hall. Mu Qiqi followed Grandpa Shen into the hall, but her eyes were darting left and right. She was looking for Sheng Xiao. She wanted to know where his seat was.

 Grandpa Shen ought to be seated with the elders so that they could carry on their conversation. And the young people would have to be seated together. So, it was impossible for Mu Qiqi to be seated separately from Shen Ruoyi. So, when Shen Ruoyi beckoned her, Mu Qiqi walked to her and sat beside her.

 Since Mu Qiqi was busy looking for Sheng Xiao’s whereabouts, she did not realize anything wrong with her chair.

 Shen Ruoyi did not touch the chair at all. She just glanced at the backrest of the chair.

 The banquet started with Grandpa Lin walking onto the stage and giving a speech.

 Mu Qiqi found Sheng Xiao not far from her. Sheng Xiao returned her gaze as if comforting her. “I will bring you home later.”

 Mu Qiqi did not mind Sheng Xiao was not sitting beside her. After some time, she felt a little itchy and uncomfortable on her back. So, she scratched it a few times.

Then, from the tips of her fingers, she could feet some powdery substance. So, she smelled it.

 Shen Ruoyi saw her and asked quickly, “What’s wrong?”

 “Nothing.” Mu Qiqi shook her head.

 But if Mu Qiqi took a closer look, she would notice that Shen Ruoyi was a little flustered. Because she had never done such a thing. She just wanted Sheng Xiao to take notice of her. So, she could only use Mu Qiqi. However, she seemed to have forgotten that Mu Qiqi was studying medicine.

 Although Mu Qiqi was just a freshman, she had learned a lot from documentaries. She was an avid learner, so she already had a wide knowledge about the subject matter.
