"Aiyo, why would I scare her? I just want to look at my daughter-in-law!" Yang Shu Ling said while she was still hugging Mo Xi and looking at Jing Mo Chen.
!!!!! Can someone tell me what"s going on?!
Jing Mo Chen held Mo Xi"s waist to pull her from Yang Shu Ling"s hug and held her by his side.
Once out of Yang Shu Ling"s hug Mo Xi turned to look at Jing Mo Chen. He then introduced Yang Shu Ling to her.
"Little Xi, this is my mother. Mother, this…"
Before Jing Mo Chen could finish his words, his mother excitedly said, "Little Xi, I am Jing Mo Chen"s mother, also, your mother!"
"Good afternoon Aunt Jing! I am Mo Xi," Mo Xi said as she bowed down to greet Yang Shu Ling.
"Aye! What Aunt Jing! You should call me mom!" Yang Shu Ling said excitedly.
Throughout the whole time, Mo Xi was in a state of loss, so she didn"t have the chance to look at Yang Shu Ling"s eyes. Now that she had the chance, she looked into Yang Shu Ling"s eyes and saw that Yang Shu Ling wasn"t what she had expected of. She didn"t have a tinge of disliking her, thinking that she stole her son, or she was too lowly for her son. Yang Shu Ling"s eyes just showed that she really like Mo Xi. Seeing that that was how Yang Shu Ling looked at her, she felt touched.
"Mo… Mom." Mo Xi greeted shyly, and her face turned red.
Yang Shu Ling saw how Mo Xi"s face turned red and thought that it was very cute, "Aye! Good girl!" and patted Mo Xi"s head.
"Sister Mo Xi!! You are here!!" Jing Mo Ling dashed out and throw herself into the arms of Mo Xi.
Mo Xi steadied herself and then hugged Jing Mo Ling and patted her head, "How are you?"
"Good, and even better to see you here!"
"I am even more happy to see you!"
"Alright, alright! Let"s go in!" Yang Shu Ling said as she dragged Mo Xi in leaving Jing Mo Chen and Jing Mo Ling behind.
Inside Jing Mansion.
"Hubby, Mo Xi is here!" Yang Shu Ling said to Jing Cang as she brought Mo Xi into the living room.
Jing Cang was a General, so he carried a dignified look and an aura that Military Officers would have. He looked at Mo Xi from top to toe and nodded their head approvingly.
On the other hand, Yang Shu Ling carried an elegant look despite her age. Besides, she also had an extremely motherly feel and gave off warmth when she smiled.
Despite they are both in their sixties, they both look like they were only in their forties or fifties, hence Mo Xi was very shocked when she heard that they are Jing Mo Chen"s parents
"Good afternoon Uncle Jing! I am Mo Xi!" Mo Xi said as she bowed down respectfully to greet Jing Cang.
Looking at how respectful Mo Xi was, he nodded his head, further showing his approval.
"Mo Chen, this is the girl that you want to get married to?" Jing Cang asked Jing Mo Chen.
"Yes, she is the only one I will marry. I said before that if it is not her, I will choose to not marry anyone."
Jing Cang nodded his head and turned to stare at Mo Xi. However, seeing that Mo Xi didn"t even flinch a bit with his stare, he smiled widely.
"HAHAHAHA! Very good! You have the capabilities of being Jing"s family daughter-in-law!"
"Mo Xi, Mo Chen told me before that you were the one that helped them last time, right?"
Mo Xi looked into Jing Cang"s eyes and replied, "Yes."
"How old are you now?"
"Twenty-two, turning twenty-three soon."
"What are you doing now?"
Just as Mo Xi was about to answer, Shen Yu Ning came in at that exact moment.
"Uncle, aunty, Yu Ning came to see you!"
"Uncle, I bought you a custom-made calligraphy set."
"Aunty, I bought you a jade bracelet from the Imperial Jade Empire."
"Mo Ling, I bought your favorite pastry."
"Brother Mo Teng, I bought your favorite tea. Eh? Where"s brother Mo Teng?"
After Shen Yu Ning finished distributing her gifts, she then turned around and pretended to look surprised.
"Eh?! Mo Xi? Why are you here?"
Mo Xi mentally rolled her eyes seeing how Shen Yu Ning made so much effort to pretend that she didn"t know whatever that was happening.
"You know Mo Xi?" Yang Shu Ling asked in surprise.
"Yes, she is a student in my cla.s.s."
"Your student? Since when were you teaching?"
"Oh! I had a break recently from the PhD program, so I decided to go experience how it is like to teach. I am teaching at XX High School now, and Mo Xi is my student."
"Ah? Is that true Mo Xi?" Yang Shu Ling looked at Mo Xi in surprise.
"Yes."
"Mo Xi, why are you here?" Shen Yu Ning asked while pretending to be eager to know about the reason why Mo Xi was around.
"She is Mo Chen"s girlfriend!" Yang Shu Ling said happily.
Although Yang Shu Ling was slightly confused as to why Mo Xi was still studying high school when she was already twenty-two, she believes that there must be a reason. After all, from what she heard, Mo Xi was the one who performed the surgery for Jing Mo Chen at that time and it was said to be done flawlessly. Therefore, there was no way that Mo Xi could be in high school without a reason.
"AH?!"
"But, Mo Xi why didn"t you prepare anything for them when you are Mo Chen"s girlfriend."
Jing Mo Chen knew why Shen Yu Ning was here as well, but he knew he shouldn"t do anything because Mo Xi must be the one to impress his family.
"I felt that it is very disrespectful to investigate what they like without seeking their permission. Plus, Mo Chen said that my presence would be the best gift for them since this is the first time, he brought a girlfriend home."
Shen Yu Ning went speechless for a moment.
