Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 625: Bully the Retarded

As they took out the invitation and were getting ready to enter the hall, Secretary He stopped Sheng Xiao from the aisle. “Excuse me.”

Sheng Xiao held Mu Qiqi’s hand tightly without letting go. He could guess what Secretary He was going to say to him.

“I wasn’t expecting you to really bring little sister here.”

“Secretary He, you know I only have this little one. I hold her in my hands and love her dearly. I don’t have any other requests. I just want her to be by my side.” Sheng Xiao looked at Secretary He seriously. “I can compromise with any other thing, but I insist on the matters about Qi’er.”

Secretary He stared at Sheng Xiao, then at Mu Qiqi.

In the end, he nodded. “Alright. I watched little sister’s interview. I don’t have any prejudice against her. But you know, your marriage is neither recognized nor protected by the laws of our country. It’s awkward for her to come here with her identity. Besides, with your appearance, you’re fated to receive a lot of attention from the ladies. If she is here, I’m worried that she will be hurt.”

“Don’t worry. I will protect her.”

Secretary He had no choice but to do his best to help Sheng Xiao.

They had known each other for half a year. He knew what Sheng Xiao valued the most.

Mu Qiqi held Sheng Xiao without saying a word. She knew that what Secretary He said was true. It was unavoidable.

However, since she was Sheng Xiao’s woman, the trickier the situation was, the less she would retreat.

“Let’s go in.”

Sheng Xiao brought Mu Qiqi into the hall of the state banquet officially. And in the hall, there were many powerful and influential figures. They were either philanthropists or outstanding military officers. With her current identity, being able to enter such a place and seeing such a grand occasion was really the most incredible experience of her life.

Everyone had received the event schedule for the state banquet. It started with one hour of award ceremony, followed by another hour of performances, and would end with the banquet. And the president’s attendance would undoubtedly be the highlight of the evening.

Mu Qiqi was no longer nervous. Instead she was full of anticipation.

“Attending such a banquet really makes people feel honored and gives people a sense of responsibility.”

Mu Qiqi murmured to herself and turned to look at Sheng Xiao’s side profile. Under the soft light, his handsome face looked even more noble and attractive.

Especially tonight, when he was wearing a dark green suit. Among the crowd, his sense of fashion and nobility was so outstanding and special that it made it hard for people to look away from him.

Because of his charming appearance, many ladies were attracted to him.

But because Mu Qiqi was by his side, it aroused the jealousy of the ladies.

“Isn’t she the heroine in the news these days? The one who killed her younger sister.”

“That’s right. It’s her. That girl is a frequent guest in the news. Maybe she is a bit rebellious.”

“How dare she come to such an occasion with her status? Doesn’t she know her place?”

The sound of mockery went on and on.

However, Mu Qiqi pretended not to hear anything. She didn’t let Sheng Xiao pay attention to the comments from the women either. Following the event schedule, they went to the other hall for the award ceremony. Tonight, it was in this very place that many elites from different classes of society would receive their awards, and Sheng Xiao was one of them.

Despite that, did Sheng Xiao really not hear it?

He couldn’t say anything for the little one now. But later, he would get the perfect chance.

Soon after, they took their seats in front of the stage.

But tonight, a granddaughter of a general was sitting beside Sheng Xiao. When she saw Sheng Xiao sitting beside her, she showed a look of admiration. However, Sheng Xiao switched seats with Mu Qiqi right away. “You sit here.”

Before Mu Qiqi could understand the situation, Sheng Xiao had already seated her on the seat. And he put his hand on her back, silently declaring that she was his possession.

The pretty lady beside Mu Qiqi gave Mu Qiqi an unfriendly look. “I know you!”

“Nice to meet you.” Mu Qiqi greeted her politely.

“You are the one on the news. You are the one who killed your younger sister.”

Hearing this, Mu Qiqi sensed the hostility of the other party. She smiled. “It seems like the information you received is not updated. I have clarified the matter in the morning.”

“So what? You’re just a small forensic doctor. No, you’re not even a forensic doctor!”

“Maybe I’m worthless in your eyes. But I’m priceless in my husband’s. Xiao, am I right?” Mu Qiqi smiled. She refuted and purposely asked Sheng Xiao the question.

Sheng Xiao replied by tilting Mu Qiqi’s head and stroking it. What he wanted to convey was so obvious. He was telling her to ignore irrelevant people and that she did not have to explain anything.

When the other party saw it, she got very angry. Just when she had finally met a handsome man with a promising future, she actually lost to a very unremarkable girl. How annoying.

However, due to her identity, she could not continue messing with Mu Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi leaned between Sheng Xiao’s arms, enjoying his protection.

“In my eyes, everything you do for the world has created enough value. Not everyone can compare with you.”

Mu Qiqi smiled after hearing this.

“I also strongly believe that everything I have done is not inferior to the work of others.”

“Silly thing.”

Mu Qiqi saw that the girl sitting beside her had on a disdainful expression as she listened to their conversation, as if telling Mu Qiqi that she was just a hillbilly. “Don’t think too highly of yourself. I’ve dined with the president countless times.”

“Isn’t that just because of your father or your grandfather’s connections?” Mu Qiqi asked in return.

The other party was speechless.

“Then what valuable thing have you done that I can learn from you?”

Mu Qiqi did not like this kind of occasion, but she would adapt to it. After all, she didn’t feel ashamed of herself and never felt inferior.

Seeing the other person choke on Mu Qiqi’s reply, Sheng Xiao gave Mu Qiqi a reminder. “Don’t go too far and bully the retarded. I shall excuse myself for a moment.”

Mu Qiqi nodded. After Sheng Xiao got up and left his seat, she threw a victorious look at the girl beside her.

“Isn’t he just a man who’s a money-maker machine? What’s so good about him?”

Mu Qiqi did not plan to reply after listening to her. But then, the lady sitting to the other side of the girl couldn’t bear the conversation anymore and said to her, “I haven’t said anything when your grandfather has been my grandfather’s subordinate for so many years. Why are you acting so proud here?”

The girl blushed immediately. “Sister Ling, I didn’t see you sitting beside me.”

“She is a girl who became a forensic doctor. That is obviously something worthy of admiration. Why has it become something so vulgar in your mouth? After so many years, your mind is still so narrow. Sit behind me. I feel so irritated when I see you.”

Mu Qiqi couldn’t help smiling at the lady gratefully after listening to her.
