Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife novel Chapter 24

Mu Qiqi was so excited her entire person seemed to have been soaked within a pink bubble. She was in a hurry to get downstairs, only calming down and becoming quiet when she entered the Ferris Wheel.

After all, Sheng Xiao was sitting right beside her.

He was so handsome when looked upon from the side...

There were people who did not actually have what it takes to approach Sheng Xiao, and yet she was having a merry time beside him. It certainly left Mu Qiqi having the illusion that she was special to Sheng Xiao.

"Such a nice view now, is it?" Sheng Xiao had his eyes closed at first, but simply asked since she could not escape Mu Qiqi's burning gaze.

"It is!" Mu Qiqi exclaimed, pointing at the scenery outside. "To think that the night view of Jianchuan is so beautiful."

Sheng Xiao sneered, but did not expose her. "Bumpkin."

Mu Qiqi's smile was very carefree. At the very least, she had never felt such happiness and bliss when she was with the Mu family.

She valued her time in the Ferris wheel, hoping that their time there could last a little longer...

But the best moments are always so brief.

"Let's go home."

They had been out for some time, not to mention that Mu Qiqi needed her strength tomorrow to confront Mu Tangxue. As such, Sheng Xiao did not allow her to remain away from home for too long.

Even if Mu Qiqi felt a little sad, she told herself to be satisfied with what she had. She should be glad with what she has, because what if her remaining happiness was taken away because she wanted too much?

When Su Zipei found Qiqi completely different from how she had been when she left, she realized how important Sheng Xiao was to a niece and so smiled at the young man. "Thank you, Young Master Sheng... for accompanying when she's sad."

Sheng Xiao said nothing, instead turning to leave dashingly. Still, it was only when he got into his sports car that he felt his quickened heartbeats.

Was it so easy to be captivated?

Meanwhile, Mu Qiqi was sprawled over her window, finally feeling sad when she saw Sheng Xiao leave before settling on to her small bed.

She wanted to spend more time alone with Sheng Xiao.

However, wasn't that a wild wish?

That being said, he allowed her to call him Xiaoxiao...

He allowed it!

Mu Qiqi's heart was beating very quickly and she turned on her phone by reflex. Nonetheless, she became serious when she saw Qianqian's message.

She must rest as much as she can right now for her showdown against Mu Tangxue tomorrow.

Sheng Xiao found Mama Sheng at the living room when he reached home.

She quickly greeted his son with a smile when she saw his figure. "Come here, let's talk for a bit."

Sheng Xiao glanced at her and then at the various photographs on the table in front of her, instantly coming to an understanding.

"What is it this time, Mom?"

"I know my son wouldn't even spare goddesses so much as a glance, but you are twenty-six this year... Isn't it time you start a family?" Mama Sheng tugged at him, getting him to sit. "Everyone else in the Sheng family is expecting their second child at your age... isn't it time that you reconsider?"

Sheng Xiao looked at the pictures of refined young ladies from good families for a moment before turning back to her mother. "Mom, don't let me see these things from now on. You know my temper very well."

"But..."

"Let me put it this way, Mom. I would agree to it if Dad could compel me to marry."

Mama Sheng promptly smiled, but that was before Sheng Xiao added, "However, I'm going to restrain and torment, even lay my hands on her. Don't blame me for not warning you when I return the corpse."

Mama Sheng's smile froze.
