Buffet table.
"What does Ying Ying like to eat?" Mo Xi asked.
Ying Ying didn"t reply, but her eyes looked at the food on the buffet table.
"Take whatever you want to eat," Mo Xi said as she gently stroked Yang Zhen Ying"s head again.
Mo Xi went to take the plate and cutleries for Yang Zhen Ying and her. She then pa.s.sed a plate to Yang Zhen Ying and let Yang Zhen Ying take whatever food she wanted to take.
Yang Zhen Ying stared at Mo Xi again because she thought that Mo Xi would take the food for her as the others did. However, Mo Xi didn"t and just let her choose and take the food on her own. Yang Zhen Ying felt very comforted as Mo Xi didn"t treat her like a young child that couldn"t a single thing on her own.
Jing Mo Chen smiled when he looked at Mo Xi and Yang Zhen Ying, but he sulked a little as he looked at his wife who had left him behind.
Hmmm… Maybe we shouldn"t have a child too early…
"Husband, aren"t you going to eat?" Mo Xi turned around and asked Jing Mo Chen who had been standing behind all this while.
Jing Mo Chen chuckled.
Seems like his wife hadn"t forgotten about him.
Jing Mo Chen then walked up, and Mo Xi pa.s.sed him a plate and cutleries as well.
"Husband, even if we have children, you are still the one that I love the most. The love for a child and the love for you is different."
Jing Mo Chen smiled and held onto Mo Xi"s waist. He kissed Mo Xi"s lips gently, "Remember what you said."
Mo Xi"s face turned red, "There are a lot of people here…"
Yang Zhen Ying looked at Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen, and a little smile formed on her face.
Yang Zhen Ying found Mo Xi very cute. Mo Xi was so calmed with the others, but when she was with Jing Mo Chen, she would blush easily.
"Ying Ying, do you want to sit in the hall, or do you want to sit near the gardens?"
Yang Zhen Ying looked at the people in the hall and she turned back to Mo Xi, "…Garden…"
Yang Zhen Ying"s voice was very soft, but Mo Xi still heard it. Mo Xi"s grip on Yang Zhen Ying"s hand tighten due to the excitement and Mo Xi smiled happily.
"Husband! Ying Ying answered me!"
"Mm. My wife is awesome," Jing Mo Chen pecked on Mo Xi"s lips again as though rewarding Mo Xi.
Mo Xi"s face turned red again from the embarra.s.sment.
Mo Xi continued to hold onto Yang Zhen Ying"s hand and Jing Mo Chen held onto Mo Xi"s waist as they walked towards the garden.
"I really admire our sister-in-law. Ying Ying is finally willing to step out of her comfort zone a little," Yang Kai Jie said.
Jing Ya"s eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Mo Xi and Yang Zhen Ying, "This is a good thing! A good thing!"
"From the way Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen interacted, Mom, Dad, I think you guys would be able to get a great-grandchild soon!" Yang De Chao said to Yang He and He Shu Meng.
"Aye! Not only would Ying Ying get better, but we would also have a grandchild soon!" Yang He gleamed.
"That"s right, Ying Ying is finally going to get better! Mo Chen and little Xi looks very sweet as well," He Shu Meng said.
Yang Zhen Ying, Mo Xi, Jing Mo Chen, and the other Yang family members sat together in the garden as they ate happily.
7.30 p.m.
"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you!" Everyone in the Jing Mansion sang.
Jing Mo Ling only invited people from the Lu family, Yang family and her three friends, hence it wasn"t a huge party.
Everyone else had already given their presents to Jing Mo Ling, except for Lu Jin Xiao.
"Brother Xiao, where"s my present?" Jing Mo Ling"s heart raced when she asked Lu Jin Xiao.
Jing Mo Ling found that she likes Lu Jin Xiao over the past month of staying at home, talking to Mo Xi. She only knew that she felt different when she was with Lu Jin Xiao, but she never knew that what she felt towards Lu Jin Xiao wasn"t just a brotherly-friend love, but truly a liking in a romantic way.
Jing Mo Ling found out that she had already fallen for Lu Jin Xiao ever since she was thirteen! They were only childhood friends before, but when Lu Jin Xiao found her crying at that time, she felt so protected. At the start, it was just a crush, but as they gradually grew up together, she fell for Lu Jin Xiao more and more subconsciously.
Especially when she was almost raped five years ago, though Mo Xi was the one that helped her get out of the fear, Mo Xi didn"t stay for that long. Jing Mo Ling was definitely thankful for Mo Xi because, without her, she would have a post-traumatic stress disorder. However, Mo Xi wasn"t the only one that she was thankful for. When Jing Mo Chen was in the hospital and everyone was in a mess because of the event that took place, Lu Jin Xiao was there to take care of her. Lu Jin Xiao"s constant support and accompany at that time made her heart felt warm and secure. Though without that event, she still had feelings for Lu Jin Xiao, that event made her heart much warmer.
Although Jing Mo Ling realized her feelings for Lu Jin Xiao, she was slightly afraid because she was still young, and she felt that Lu Jin Xiao would like mature women instead of a young girl like her. She had also seen Lu Jin Xiao"s police mate before and there were many capable and attractive females, hence she thought that perhaps Lu Jin Xiao might already have a girlfriend.
