151 Shen Jing in Trouble (1/2)
While eating, Qin Xiaoyou's mood was not very good. Mo Wen could only awkwardly laugh non-stop. Meanwhile, Wang Xiaofei was like a powder keg and had gone all out in ordering the dishes. She had specially chosen the expensive dishes, as if she was trying to make Mo Wen a pauper by eating.
The meal was very uncomfortable. However, Mo Wen was very good at suppressing his feelings and had managed to force down quite a couple bowls of rice. He had even helped both Qin Xiaoyou and Wang Xiaofei get some of the dishes, which had garnered a few eyerolls from Wang Xiaofei.
After finishing the meal, Wang Xiaofei became very self-aware and left on her own. Meanwhile, Mo Wen and Qin Xiaoyou strolled together in the little forest by the school while holding hands.
”Why did Teacher Shen Jing look for you for today?” Qin Xiaoyou asked gently.
Mo Wen knew that lying would no longer solve the issue. He could only say the truth.
”She wanted to learn one of my medical healing skill sets. Previously, I had agreed to her request. However, her comprehension was not very good… So, even after half a day, she still has not been able to learn it.”
”Then, in order to teach her, you're not even going to eat your meals anymore?” Qin Xiaoyou rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. Previously, when Mo Wen had rushed over, there was clearly a rice grain in the corner of his mouth. Yet, he still claimed that he had not eaten. Why was he being so dishonest?
”Oh…”
Mo Wen knew that Qin Xiaoyou was deliberating with irony. After an awkward moment, he replied with a thick skin, ”There was no choice. In order to thank me for teaching her, Teacher Shen Jing insisted on dragging me to her house for a meal. It's not very good if I don't eat at all, but if I do eat, it would take a long time. So I could only hurriedly gobble down two mouthfuls before rushing over to the canteen.”
”I don't feel like believing you.”
Qin Xiaoyou let out a light sigh and looked at Mo Wen through a side-glance.
However, the increasing blush on her cheeks indicated that she had apparently become less angry already.
”Alright, what are you being jealous for?” Mo Wen patted Qin Xiaoyou's little head.
”Who's being jealous? You really can't get anything good out of that filthy mouth,” Qin Xiaoyou said while she glared at Mo Wen.
”Look at you being so petty, don't brush it off as nothing. Even if it's a bit weird, so what? I'm a man. Isn't it normal to have three wives, four concubines, twelve mistresses, and the likes?” Mo Wen said emotionlessly.
When he was the imperial physician in the palace, the entire living quarters of the palace was filled with the emperor's women such that three wives and four concubines was nothing compared to it. Any one of the imperial court officials already had over ten rooms of concubines, while some even had more than three-digit numbers. It was weird now because it had become uncommon.
”What did you say?” Qin Xiaoyou gritted her teeth. She enunciated each and every word as she asked.
”Erm… The moon tonight is so big and round,” Mo Wen looked at the black sky and laughed.
”Round your head.”
Qin Xiaoyou wanted to step on Mo Wen's face. She said with her arms akimbo, ”Xiaofei already said, if you dare be unfaithful, she will do that to you.”
As she said that, she extended two of her fair and slender fingers to gesture a cutting action.
The corners of Mo Wen's mouth twitched a little, and he felt a chill run down his body. That woman, Wang Xiaofei, was really a little too ruthless.
”Mo Wen.”
Qin Xiaoyou suddenly came forward to hug Mo Wen, her eyes glazed over with a layer of tears.
”Don't leave me, alright?”
”Xiaoyou, are you certain you want to follow me? If you're certain, it's not a matter of whether I will leave you, but rather whether you will leave me.”
Mo Wen's arms encircled Qin Xiaoyou's slim waist. He raised his eyebrows and a smile stretched across his face.
”Tyrant.”
Qin Xiaoyou rolled her eyes at Mo Wen and smoothed her lips a little before leaping forward to plant a kiss on Mo Wen.
It was only after a while did the two of them separate. Qin Xiaoyou's face had become flushed.
”Next time, if you don't like me or don't care for me and go around being unfaithful, I will run away and ensure that you will not able to find me forever.”
Qin Xiaoyou buried her head in Mo Wen's embrace, and just like a kitten, she nestled up against Mo Wen's body with deep affection.
”You're still thinking of running away? Fat chance. No matter what, even if I have to ascend to the heavens or go down to hell, I will find you back.”
...
In the next few days, Mo Wen would go to Shen Jing's house after school. After talking it out clearly with Qin Xiaoyou, she would rarely bother him about it anymore, as if she had no more feelings of jealousy.
Mo Wen stretched and lazily climbed up from the sofa. He comfortably let out a sigh. He was feeling very relaxed with double the energy.
Meanwhile, Shen Jing had just completed her massage assignment and once again went into the kitchen to busy herself. Not long afterwards, the entire table in front of Mo Wen had been filled with dishes. The aroma had seized him and it whet one's appetite.
”Not bad,” Mo Wen praised as he dug up the rice.
”Even food can't stifle your mouth.”
Shen Jing rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. Now, she really wanted to stifle that mouth of his.
”Xiaojing ah, your progress these few days has been rather fast. Not bad, not bad. If you continue to work at it, I believe you would be able to learn my ultimate technique in just a couple of days.”
Mo Wen's mouth was stuffed with rice, so his words were muffled and unclear.
”Call me Xiaojing one more time, and believe it or not, I will stuff your head down the toilet bowl!”
Shen Jing grinded her teeth as she looked at Mo Wen. This Mo Wen was really becoming more and more arrogant. He simply showed no respect to his elders and superiors. After only teaching her for a few days, he was ready to climb all over her.
”A teacher for a day, a father for a lifetime. Why don't you know this important principle of respect for your teacher at all?” Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and asked.
”So, you mean I have to call you father?”
Shen Jing glared at Mo Wen fiercely. How could he only be a father if he was already an ancestor?
”Don't, being a father makes me sound too old. In the future, calling me Big Brother Mo will do.”
