Mo Xifeng's expression turned complicated. She then said to Mo Qiang, "I am ashamed, I did not pay attention to something so important." She only cared about rescuing the mer and did not care about the aftermath. Given how many mers tried all sorts of tactics to get married to her, Mo Xifeng should have been a bit wiser.
If she had known that Liao Hai was thinking of doing something like this, then Mo Xifeng would have taken the necessary precautions.
After all, she was not someone who would stay complacent for even a minute. If Mo Xifeng had taken a look at the mer's face then she would have prepared for any sort of eventuality.
She then lowered her head and apologized, "I am sorry because of me, you ended up getting entangled in trouble. I will think of a way to solve this, Sister."
When Mo Qiang heard the words of Mo Xifeng and turned silent. She looked at Mo Xifeng who had gone back to her stiff and robotic attitude before saying, "What are you saying? Is this something that you should be saying right now?" Mo Qiang's expression was not right which made Mo Xifeng stiffen.
Did she say something wrong? What if Mo Qiang told this to Wen Gui? Then wouldn't Wen Gui hate her again? Just when Mo Xifeng thought that she was finally integrating into the family. Her complexion couldn't help but turn pale as she was worried that she would be pushed out of the family once again.
"Hey! Xifeng!" Mo Qiang shouted in her ear causing Mo Xifeng to snap out of her thoughts. She looked up at Mo Qiang who was looking at her, Mo Xifeng did not know that because she was lost in her panic, Mo Qiang also panicked a little when she saw Mo Xifeng turn pale. "Whats the matter with you?" Mo Qiang asked as she looked at her sister who seemed to be lost in her own thoughts.
Mo Xifeng clenched her fingers as she blinked her eyes. She calmed down after breathing in and out, before saying, "I am fine, Sister. There is nothing to worry about."
Her response only caused Mo Qiang to frown even more. When Mo Xifeng looked at the furrow on Mo Qiang's face, she suddenly felt a bit helpless. What was she supposed to do? What was she doing wrong?
She was acting like how Mo Qiang wanted her to, so why was she looking at her with that gaze? freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"You fool, why are you like this? Are we not family? How can I not worry about you?" Mo Qiang questioned causing Mo Xifeng's eyes to widen.
Family? Was she really part of this family?
"There is no need for you to take everything on your shoulders. You are capable, I understand but you can trust me a little," Mo Qiang pointed to herself. "Think about it, do you really want to rely on yourself in every situation? It's fine to rely on your family sometimes."
Mo Xifeng's heartbeat started to pick up its pace as she remarked, "But my father——"
"Well your father is one hell of an as*hole, I will agree to that," Mo Qiang said with a smile on her face as she patted Mo Xifeng on the shoulders. "But there is no need for you to be so restrained. I mean it wasn't as if you helped your father. In fact, it's quite cruel of him to dump you in a rotten place and leave you to die."
"You have survived without any help till now and even became the S class mecha morph but I would like it if you depended on your big sister a bit," she scratched her cheek with an embarrassed expression as she remarked, "I mean, I might not be a good person but I might be a bit dependable right?"
Mo Xifeng stared at Mo Qiang. Her heart was thumping wildly, it was the first time Mo Xifeng had felt her heart thump like this, even when she proposed to her ex-lover, her heart did not thump like this and the warmth that seared through her heart—— it was something that Mo Xifeng had never felt before.
