1155 During the Year You Were 13... (1/2)
Tan Bengbeng was Nian Xiaomu's secret guard, and she had been following Nian Xiaomu around ever since she was young.
Apart from Nian Xiaomu herself, she was the person who had the clearest idea of whatever happened during that period of time!
Even though the Mo Family we're a low-key family who usually stood aloof from worldly affairs, the situation was not as calm and peaceful in private.
The gifts that the direct descendants held made many of the other descendants terribly jealous. Apart from this, many of the members were fighting to be the head of the household, for that position signified extreme power and wealth…
The Mo Family simply announced to the public that the many direct descendants who died at an early age passed away due to illnesses. However, after Tan Bengbeng started to look into this matter discreetly, she realized that there seemed to be something strange about the deaths of those children.
However, many people would definitely be implicated if she were to thoroughly investigate this matter.
The Young Mistress of the Mo Family was a kind-hearted person, and she had always thought that it was because of her weak body that her children could not survive through to adulthood.
As a person who loved his wife dearly, Mo Qian was afraid that she could not take it if she knew that all of her children had died an unnatural death. As such, he could only restrain his emotions by sending Nian Xiaomu out of the Mo Family shortly after she was born.
The Xing Family was also one of the Mo Family's guardian families, but the declining family rarely caught the attention of the public.
This was exactly the reason the previous head of the Mo Family had promised to place his granddaughter, that was borne to his first son, in the care of the declining Xing Family. They were on the verge of getting completely forgotten by the public.
No one would have thought that the honorable heir of the Mo Family would be the second Miss of the Xing Family who rarely showed up in public.
Even though Nian Xiaomu was placed in the care of the Xing Family, the Mo Family was the one who decided the use of her necessities, and all of them were of the best quality.
She had been a goofy and smart girl ever since she was young; she also had gorgeous looks, as she resembled both her parents, along with her sweet talking skills…
Gradually, Mo Qian, who had always been a slave to his wife, turned into a slave to his daughter.
In the beginning, he could still control himself and only visited her once a month. However, as time passed, he could no longer endure it and would head over to visit her almost once every week.
Even though Nian Xiaomu was placed under the care of the Xing Family, she knew very clearly, from a young age, that both her parents loved her dearly; they would visit her often and buy lots of things for her, hence she had never felt like she was abandoned.
