Chapter 728: 730 (first update)

"My brother?" Mo Qingyi looked around, "Did my brother also come?"

Just as Mo Qingyi finished speaking, footsteps sounded from behind her. She turned around and saw no other than Mo Zhixuan approaching.

"Brother-in-law."

"Godfather."

Chu Xiu and the little Lolita both greeted him properly.

Mo Zhixuan smiled, nodded, then sat cross-legged next to Chu Jin, casually picking up her cup to drink some water.

Chu Jin passed a candied haw to Mo Zhixuan, "Here, I saved it especially for you."

Mo Zhixuan took the candied haw, bit into it, and then praised, "Tastes good."

Mo Qingyi immediately seized the chance to seek praise, looking at Mo Zhixuan with a look that begged for commendation, "Brother, brother, I’m the one who bought it."

Mo Zhixuan used to dislike sweet things, but this time he actually praised the candied haws as delicious, which was incredibly rare, so Mo Qingyi was very excited.

"Oh, no wonder it tastes so bad." Mo Zhixuan instantly switched to a cold and haughty expression.

Mo Qingyi: "..." She was indeed his true brother!

"The trial race is tomorrow; how about staying at my place tonight?" Mo Zhixuan looked down at Chu Jin.

"Why?" Chu Jin raised her eyebrows slightly.

Mo Zhixuan took another bite of the candied haw and said calmly, "Because my place is closer to the trial site, it would be more convenient for me to take you there tomorrow morning."

Though he was eating a candied haw, the words he spoke were still remarkably clear.

Mo Qingyi looked at Mo Zhixuan with a speechless expression. Men are truly as unpredictable as a deep ocean! While his mouth complained of distaste, his actions were more honest than anyone’s.

"I don’t want to make the trip back and forth." Chu Jin looked down, stirring the plain water in her cup with a silver spoon, "And it’s a long car ride, which is quite troublesome. I seem to get carsick lately."

"Since when do you get carsick?" Mo Zhixuan raised his brows slightly, somewhat puzzled, "Weren’t you fine with it before?"

"I don’t know," Chu Jin casually peeled an orange in her hand, "Just feeling a bit queasy, might be because I’m getting old."

When Chu Jin mentioned "old," Mo Zhixuan guiltily averted his gaze.

In front of all these people, he was the oldest one.

Chu Jin hadn’t brought up the word ’old’ in a long time; why today...

Mo Zhixuan raised his hand to touch his nose, preparing to stand still as a silent spectator.

Chu Jin didn’t notice these details and continued peeling the orange in her hands.

Early in June, the oranges were not yet ripe, the flesh still a greenish-white color.

A sharp sourness spread through the air.

Chu Jin’s taste buds burst into life, not minding the sourness at all, stuffing segment after segment into her mouth with a satisfied look.

This made Mo Qingyi’s teeth feel tender; my, how Jin could eat sour food!

Are you sure this orange is edible?

"Is it sour?" Mo Qingyi looked at Chu Jin and couldn’t help swallowing, sensing the sourness even several meters away.

"It’s not sour." Chu Jin spoke casually, offering a segment of the orange to Mo Qingyi, "Try it."

"So sour! So sour!" Mo Qingyi’s brows scrunched together as she excitedly got up from the swordgrass mat, spitting the orange into the trash can.

It was just unbearably sour!

So sour it could knock her teeth out.

"It’s not sour," Chu Jin said, puzzled, "I think it’s quite sweet."

Mo Qingyi was at a loss for words, "Damn it! Jin, you must’ve lost your sense of taste!"

That unbearably sour orange, Chu Jin actually called sweet!

Chu Jin’s capabilities weren’t just fearsome in combat; even her taste was frightening.

Such a terrifying woman.

"Let me try," Mo Zhixuan moved closer, biting away the last segment of orange in Chu Jin’s hand.

It was indeed very sour.

Enough to make Mo Zhixuan’s features scrunch up tightly.

"Is it very sour?" Chu Jin turned to look at Mo Zhixuan.

"Not sour, not sour," as soon as Chu Jin looked his way, Mo Zhixuan’s expression instantly returned to normal, saying seriously, "Not at all sour, very sweet."

He had already lost common ground with Chu Jin on the issue of age, so he couldn’t afford to have a disagreement about the sourness or sweetness of an orange.

"I also find it very sweet, have another segment." Chu Jin pushed the last segment of the orange into Mo Zhixuan’s mouth.

Mo Zhixuan didn’t dare to chew it and just swallowed it whole, then said, "If you don’t want to make the trip back and forth, then I’ll stay here tonight."

After eating the orange, Jin casually picked up a piece of green plum and put it in her mouth, "That works."

"Hey, hey, hey," Mo Qingyi interjected, unhappy with the exchange between the two, "Dear couple, under the broad daylight, could you please show some decorum? Don’t you know to spare a thought for us single folks?"

These two were really something.

First feeding each other in front of a single person, then blatantly discussing their overnight arrangements!

Tsk, the smell of love was just unbearable.

Mo Zhixuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Sorry, we’re different species with no common language, so we don’t understand what you’re talking about."

Mo Qingyi gritted her teeth, "That’s speciesism!"

Mo Zhixuan continued raising his eyebrows, "You’ve finally figured that out, haven’t you?"

Mo Qingyi: "..." Ah, so annoying!

Chu Jin laughed softly. Mr. Mo was getting more and more sarcastic.

That night, Mo Qingyi didn’t leave either, but stayed over at the Chu Family’s place.

The next morning.

Chu Jin woke up early. When she awoke, Mo Zhixuan was standing by the bed, dressing himself in front of the mirror.

He wore a noble and luxurious hand-made suit.

Because it was tailored to fit perfectly, it emphasized his already long and straight figure, making him look even more tall and statuesque.

The morning sun shone through the window, casting a faint glow on him, making it hard for one to look away.

This was the first time Chu Jin had taken such a serious look at Mr. Mo, and thus, those four words appeared in her mind—

A splendor of peerless beauty.

Just as she had seen him for the first time.

Dazzling beyond compare.

Back then, she thought that he was a man so powerful that his strength was immeasurable, and that she would do well to provoke him less.

Never did she imagine that in the future she would share a bed and be married to him.

Fate is just a word.

Intertwined in every aspect.

Some things seem to be arranged by destiny.

Chu Jin lay on her side at the edge of the bed, her left hand on her belly, staring at him, and for a moment, she was stupefied.

"How is it," Mo Zhixuan felt her gaze and slowly turned around, looking down at her from above with his thin lips parting slightly, "Is your man not very handsome, so handsome that you can’t even extricate yourself?"

Despite uttering such self-loving words, Mo Zhixuan’s expression could remain so serious, as if he were sitting in an office issuing commands with the utmost gravity.

Speaking such narcissistic words and still not blushing or batting an eye, probably only Mo Zhixuan could accomplish that.

"The mirror is right over there, why don’t you go take a look yourself?" Chu Jin collected her thoughts and spoke with a light tone.

"What? Do you think I’m not handsome enough?"

"Do I need to spell it out? Don’t you know in your heart?" Chu Jin raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Handsome or not, I’m yours now! All sales are final, no refunds..."

Chu Jin had already gotten used to Mr. Mo’s shamelessness, and replied in a light tone, "Doesn’t it support a 7-day return without reason?"

"Thinking of exchanging me?" Mo Zhixuan arched his eyebrows, "No way, not even a window."

The two dawdled in the room for a while before changing into their clothes and going downstairs.

"Brother, Jin Bro, you finally got up. Come over and eat." Mo Qingyi spoke with a bun in his mouth, his words muffled as he called out to them.

Zhao Yan, Chu Xiu, and the little loli were also there.

It was just after 6 am, and normally, they would get up after 7 am. However, they had risen early today to go to the trial grounds to cheer for Chu Jin.

After greeting everyone, Chu Jin and Mo Zhixuan came over to have breakfast.

"Eh, Jin Bro, how come you’re not wearing a skirt today?" Mo Qingyi looked Chu Jin over and continued, "You should wear that embroidered skirt, I guarantee you’ll outshine everyone and stun the crowd. But, you look super good in this too. The key is having a beautiful face that allows you to do whatever you want!"

Mo Qingyi concluded with her final assessment.

Usually, clothes complement the person, but in Chu Jin’s case, it was the person who complemented the clothes. No matter how ugly the clothes were, once Chu Jin wore them, they would shine anew and reach new heights of beauty.

Chu Jin wore a white T-shirt with ripped jeans and white sneakers underfoot today, her long hair tied up in a bun. It was a simple outfit, yet it exuded an aura of noble ease.

Unworldly, serene, as if an orchid in a secluded valley, undisturbed by worldly affairs.

It was an innate quality that couldn’t be concealed by any external factors.

And it corresponded to that phrase.

Born with nobility.

"I’m going to participate in the trial competition, not a beauty pageant. Why would I wear a skirt?" Chu Jin skillfully peeled the eggshell and casually placed the yolk into Mo Zhixuan’s bowl before continuing, "Besides, it’s not convenient to fight in a skirt."

Mo Zhixuan unconsciously picked up the yolk and popped it into his mouth.

The two of them, one eating the yolk and the other the egg white, complemented each other well.

Mo Qingyi nodded thoughtfully, "That seems right, wearing a skirt could lead to mishaps in a fight."

After finishing the egg white, Chu Jin looked up at Mo Zhixuan with some puzzlement and asked, "Have you seen Zi?"

"No." Mo Zhixuan pulled out a napkin and elegantly wiped the corner of his mouth.

"Weird..." Chu Jin poked at the vegetables in her bowl with a spoon, "I feel like I haven’t seen him for several days."

Upon hearing this, Mo Qingyi also spoke up curiously, "I haven’t seen him for a long time either, Jin Bro, do you think something might have happened to him?"

Before Chu Jin could answer, Mo Zhixuan said, "What could happen to a grown man? Stop worrying over nothing. Now, he’s the Great National Division, not some idle vagrant; he can’t spend every day with you guys."

Zi, sent by Mo Zhixuan to a neighboring country on a goodwill mission, quietly shed two lines of bitter tears in his heart, "..." Bao Bao felt wronged, but Bao Bao wouldn’t say a word.

Mo Zhixuan had been annoyed with Zi for a long time now.

With Zi, that troublemaker around, he had completely lost his presence in front of Chu Jin.

"Oh." Chu Jin nodded in understanding.

After all, Zi was not the same as he used to be.

It’s normal for him to be busy.

After breakfast, the group took an extended luxury car and hurried to the trial competition venue.

The entrance to the trial grounds was filled with luxury cars.

The entire scene was bustling.

Everyone was there for the position of the ninth lady.

As soon as Chu Jin and Mo Zhixuan got out of the car, Duanmu Zhe greeted them.

"Ninth Brother, Ninth Sister-in-law."

Today’s competition was very important, so naturally, Duanmu Zhe couldn’t be absent.

After a quick scan of the crowd and not finding that ’black ghost,’ Duanmu Zhe quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Duanmu, you’re here too." Mo Qingyi approached Duanmu Zhe unconsciously, her mood upbeat, so when calling him, she didn’t even add the usual ’Little Four’ to his name.

"Zhixuan, Jin." Mo’s mother and Tong Zhi also got out of the car.

"Mom, Aunt Tong." Chu Jin and Mo Zhixuan walked over.

"Jin."

"Ninth Sister-in-law."

Mo Feixue, Zhou Xunian, and Weiwei also came over.

Almost everyone was present.

"Jin, how come you’ve lost so much weight in just a few days?" Mo’s mother grabbed Chu Jin’s hand, full of concern.

Because of her poor appetite, Chu Jin did indeed look slightly thinner recently.

"It’s fine." Chu Jin touched her face.

"Look at your little face, it’s become the size of a palm," Mo’s mother’s face showed her distress as she turned to Mo Zhixuan, admonishing him, "Zhixuan, look how you’re taking care of Jin."
