"Although I am suffering, you don't know, when I woke up today I was lying in a pile of dead bodies, wasn't that suffering?" Mo Xiaoqing looked at him with an innocent and pure expression.
Hearing her words, even though she knew that Mo Xiaoqing was putting on an act, Ji Muhan's eyes still couldn't help but show a hint of hostility.
How could he remain indifferent when his precious child, whom he cherished dearly, was being schemed against like this?
"I voluntarily applied to be transferred here specifically to handle your case!"
Mo Xiaoqing's eyes lit up, and she eagerly grabbed his sleeve, saying in a soft, sweet voice, "Then you must help me find the murderer, and then give him a good beating!"
Her words carried a childlike innocence, and even though she was speaking with a hint of vengeance, they still made one's heart sink and soften completely.
Ji Muhan sighed softly, reached out and pulled her into his arms. His fair and jade-like face showed unconcealed fear, and his chin rested on the top of Mo Xiaoqing's head.
"Mo Mo, from now on..." He paused for a few seconds, and just when Mo Xiaoqing thought he would never speak again, she heard his voice, which was so soft it was almost a whisper, "I love you more than I love myself, so even if it's just for me, can you please take good care of yourself from now on!"
He vowed never to let her have another chance to be in such danger. He rushed here immediately after receiving the news this morning, considering countless possibilities along the way…
I don't even dare to imagine what I would do if she were hurt in the slightest...
Mo Xiaoqing was stunned. Only she knew the truth in her heart: she had always been the one who lacked a sense of security. Perhaps it was because the one who fell in love first was destined to be the loser...
But…
Now Hanhan says…
"Could you repeat what you just said?" The little girl stared at him with her big, clear black and white eyes, looking incredibly beautiful!
"Hanhan, I really like what you just said. Could you say it again?" With a naive yet ardent gaze, she looked at Ji Muhan, her eyes darkening.
A sudden heat rose in his lower abdomen…
Even the arms that were wrapped around Mo Xiaoqing tightened unconsciously.
But, unusually, he didn't evade her question. His gaze was intense and earnest as he said, word by word, "I love you... Momo!"
Her breath fell softly on Mo Xiaoqing's ear.
After saying this, Ji Muhan unconsciously let out a soft breath!
It turned out that saying those words wasn't as difficult as he had imagined.
Perhaps because he had autism when he was young, he always felt that it would take a lot of effort to express what was in his heart.
Mo Xiaoqing grinned, even though the past few days had been a complete mess, absolutely terrible!
But for her, these current events perfectly illustrate a certain saying—
What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise!
Everything Ji Muhan did today undoubtedly reassured her, making her feel that as long as Hanhan was by her side, she had nothing to worry about...
Mo Xiaoqing smiled smugly, resting her chin on Ji Muhan's right shoulder and wrapping her arms tightly around Ji Muhan's waist. "I love you too,"
After thinking for a moment, she added, "Besides my parents and brothers, the person I love most in this world is Ji Muhan!"
This undisguised, burning emotion instantly enveloped him like a fireball.
But... Ji Muhan doesn't reject it, in fact... she likes it a lot!
"Things have been a bit tricky these past few days, but now that I'm back, leave everything to me, don't worry!" As Ji Muhan said this, she gently parted her disheveled hair and tucked it behind her ears.
"I'm not worried!" Mo Xiaoqing smiled brightly and winked at him.
From the moment Mengzi returned, she was no longer worried!
The little girl was perhaps so fearless because of this, but... Ji Muhan's gaze lingered on Mo Xiaoqing's face for a few seconds.
For a fleeting moment, Mo Xiaoqing mistook his intense gaze for one of his intentions to kiss her!
After a short while, Ji Muhan concealed his burning gaze, regained his calm and composed demeanor, and slowly pushed Mo Xiaoqing out of his arms.
With a hint of helplessness, he glanced at Mo Xiaoqing, who seemed to have no bones, and gently scolded, "Sit still."
Mo Xiaoqing blinked. "I'm already seated!"
As she said this, she deliberately rubbed her little head against Ji Muhan a couple of times.
"..."
Where is a good place to sit?
Their boneless appearance made it seem as if they wanted to take all the weight on themselves.
Ji Muhan remained silent for a moment, staring at Mo Xiaoqing without saying a word. Seeing the little girl, who was leaning against him with most of her body, give him a bright smile without any self-awareness, he sighed softly, seemingly helpless.
That low sigh, so soft it drifted away on the wind, even carried a barely perceptible hint of indulgence...
He teased her deliberately, "You just said you'd listen to me, how come you're going back on your word so soon?"
"No way! A boyfriend's existence is meant to allow his girlfriend to exercise her legitimate rights, isn't it?" Mo Xiaoqing raised her chin matter-of-factly, her eyes darting around. "Or are you saying you don't want me to lean on you? Fine, forget it then, I'll find a boy I'm willing to lean on for the rest of my life!"
