Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Then, everyone turned and looked at Mu Qiqi again.

“It must be a misunderstanding, Third Aunt. I do not have a rich boyfriend, I only have a sponsor.”

“What a lie!”

“Third Elder’s wife, didn’t you see the person who sent Qiqi here?” asked Grandpa Shen.

“Of course I know him. He is Sheng Xiao’s assistant, Jing Yun.” When Third Aunt said this, she realized it was a serious matter.

“Since you know he is Jing Yun, of course you should know Qiqi’s sponsor,” Grandpa Shen said coldly.

Third Aunt did not talk anymore. She had never expected that Mu Qiqi would have such luck. Who could it be the one behind Jing Yun if it was not Sheng Xiao?

“Didn’t you say your sponsor is French?” Mu Tangxue was implying that Mu Qiqi was lying.

“I have never said that. Was this what the Mu family found out?” Mu Qiqi rebutted. “Actually, my sponsor is Sheng Xiao’s assistant, Jing Yun.”

“But the Sheng family is our enemy!”

“When I was homeless, it was the Sheng family who gave me a place to stay and took care of me,” replied Mu Qiqi with a smile. “Do you really hope that I will explain in detail what happened to me to all the elders here? I think it is just a waste of time.”

The difference between the sisters was already very big. When the two were talking to each other, it was even more obvious. Mu Qiqi remained calm even when Mu Tangxue was closing in on her. Their attitudes and the way they lived were totally the opposite. They were as different as the sky and the earth.

“Why are these sisters acting so weird as if they are rivals?”

When Mu Tangxue heard Third Aunt’s words, she immediately lowered her head down and started crying. She did not care if anyone would help her. She just cried as if the whole family had bullied her.

“Why are you crying all of the sudden?” Third Aunt wiped off her tears. “How much agony have you suffered?”

“I am fine, Third Aunt. I am used to it already.”

They both said they had got used to each other. So who was speaking the truth?

Mu Qiqi ignored her and pointed to the presents brought in by Jing Yun. She said, “I have brought some presents for each of you. I hope you will like them.”

“You are just a child. You shouldn’t have prepared so much,” Grandpa Shen said proudly.

Mu Qiqi was obviously more skillful in terms of handling matters as compared to Mu Tangxue.

“It is my first time coming for a visit. It would be impolite if I do not bring any presents for you. I just hope that you all will like them.”

“What do you think of this child?” Grandpa Shen was very satisfied with his granddaughter. He turned his head and looked at his children. “She won’t embarrass you, right? She is courteous and poise. And she doesn’t hurt you in any way, does she?”

The Shens exchanged gazes but did not speak.

As it happened, Rong Junhan marched into the mansion. Anyway, she was the eldest sister. So, there was nothing wrong for her to do so.

When Third Aunt and Mu Tangxue saw Rong Junhan, they looked at each other. They were waiting to see Mu Qiqi facing her doom soon.

She managed to make the Shens happy. But what could she do with the trickiest one?

Mu Tangxue had suffered a great embarrassment the last time they met.

But when Rong Junhan had yet to be seated, Mu Qiqi bowed to her deeply.

“What is the meaning of this?” Rong Junhan did not expect Mu Qiqi to do that to her.

“For you to feel a bit better,” replied Mu Qiqi. She stood up straight again.

“Oh? Don’t you think that I am an outsider but you are the real member of the Shen family? And it is unnecessary for you to bow to me?” Rong Junhan glanced at Mu Tangxue when she asked Mu Qiqi. Her sarcastic words were pricking into Mu Tangxue’s heart.

“To this family, I should be the one who is considered an outsider. How can blood relations beat the companionship for twenty years?” Mu Qiqi answered steadily.

“Don’t you feel wronged?”

“But I think it is more difficult for you, Aunt Rong.”

After listening to Mu Qiqi’s answers, Rong Junhan studied Mu Qiqi from head to toe. Then she laughed. “They both grew up in the Mu family. But how could they be so different?”

Mu Tangxue’s face changed. She did not seem to know Mu Qiqi anymore. Mu Qiqi had changed so much in such a short time.

Mu Qiqi was once a fragile girl. But now, she had become so empathetic, so courteous, and poise. Mu Tangxue felt as if she had been slapping herself when she had bad-mouthed Mu Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi could even handle Rong Junhan well. Who was the one coaching her in secret?

Mu Qiqi stood in front of Rong Junhan as if she was being punished. But she did not seem to be holding any grudge.

Because she knew once Rong Junhan had vented out her anger, she would become more reasonable.

Sure enough, after three minutes, Rong Junhan nodded and said, “You are a good one! Better than someone else!”

Mu Tangxue’s eyes got teary again. But she could not make herself cry. Perhaps she cried too much just now.

Mu Qiqi seemed to know what the Shens wanted. She showed them everything they wanted to see. How could she do that?

“Who did you learn all these from? Let me learn as well. I feel bad for making the elders unhappy all the time.”

However, Mu Qiqi ignored Mu Tangxue altogether. She said, “Grandpa, please let me give the presents to my uncles and my aunts.”

“Sure,” said Grandpa Shen.

Mu Tangxue was totally ignored by Mu Qiqi. She felt even worse. So, she stood up in front of Mu Qiqi.

“Don’t you think you are too much, treating me like that? I am talking to you!”

“Today is a good day. I do not want to argue with you. So, you should be conscious and don’t try to make trouble,” said Mu Qiqi right to her face.

“I am also a member of the Shen family. How could you look down on me?”

“Why are these sisters arguing again?” Third Aunt knew it was not the right time, so she hurriedly dragged Mu Tangxue to her side. “There will be guests tonight. You do not have to defeat her now. When the time is right, you show your grandfather your care and understanding and make him feel proud of you. This is more important.”

Mu Tangxue clenched his fists and held in her tears. She glared at Mu Qiqi but did not say anything.

“Don’t lose your cool, the night is yet to come. I know what to do,” Third Aunt said to calm Mu Tangxue down. “You are not her opponent now. Don’t make everyone hate you. It is not worth it.”

Mu Tangxue took a deep breath and nodded. She would endure for now!
