Chapter 159 - I Want the Marriage Certificate (1/2)

Shi Junhe witnessed Mo Junyang and Shi Qingxue’s interaction.

Seeing that Shi Qingxue was so happy and Mo Junyang doted on her without limit, he felt sour and then joyful and relieved.

He didn’t know if it was Shi Qingxue’s best choice to be with Mo Junyang.

But he admitted that even he couldn’t be compared with Mo Junyang when he faced Shi Qingxue who had lost memory and was like a newborn baby.

Shi Junhe had too many responsibilities and burdens that he couldn’t give up. He would never and was unable to just consider Shi Qingxue’s feelings regardless of anything else. He was an incapable father who couldn’t even protect his daughter’s fame.

How could he fight with Mo Junyang for Shi Qingxue?

“Duke Shi, since you came to my home, please have a cup of hot tea.” Although Mo Junyang was talking with Shi Qingxue, he also paid attention to Shi Junhe all the time.

After watching the complicated expression on Duke Shi’s face, Mo Junyang offered mercifully at last.

Shi Junhe didn’t refuse and sat next to Shi Qingxue. Noticing her curious eyes like a stranger’s, he was sad but didn’t show his feeling. Instead, he smiled at her warmly.

“Qingxue.”

“Who are you? How do you know my name?” Shi Qingxue didn’t feel scared as usual when she met a “stranger” but automatically moved closer to Shi Junhe, asking in surprise.

Shi Junhe smiled and raised his hand, trying to touch Shi Qingxue’s head, but Mo Junyang glared at him, so his hand remained in the midair.

Looking at Shi Junhe and then at the big hand above her head, Shi Qingxue also smiled. “Do you also think I am a good girl and want to praise me? No need. It’s enough as I have Junyang.”

She just simply thought that she didn’t need too many people’s “praise”, but her direct words stunned the two men, and then…

Mo Junyang was overjoyed, while Shi Junhe had a feeling of loss, but the two men had a tacit agreement and didn’t continue Shi Qingxue’s subject.

“General Shi, why did you come here?” Mo Junyang still asked lazily, but he called “General Shi” instead of “Duke Shi”, which showed his respect to Shi Junhe.

Shi Junhe obviously felt Mo Junyang’s “sincerity”. Thinking that the young man must have known what had happened in Duke Shi’s mansion, Shi Junhe didn’t hide it from him. “My mother wants to…”

Realizing that Shi Qingxue understood what “Qingxue” meant, he held back what he was going to say. He glanced at her and said vaguely, “Disown…her.”

Mo Junyang was smart and immediately understood what Shi Junhe said.

His handsome face was cold, and he leered at Shi Junhe coldly. “General Shi, what’s your plan? Do you want to get rid of this hidden trouble as a family master?”

“Of course not!” Shi Junhe denied decisively. He had never wanted Shi Qingxue to break up with the Shi Family, and he wouldn’t do that, never.

Mo Junyang raised his beautiful brows and looked Shi Junhe up and down for quite a while, asking with a faint smile, “Have you figured out how to explain to Madam Shi or Princess Royal?”

If he didn’t disown Shi Qingxue, he would have to surrender and marry Leng Yan as his concubine, but if he was unwilling to surrender, he would go against Princess Royal.

The excitement on Shi Junhe’s face disappeared and was replaced with helplessness. He supported his forehead and said gloomily, “I won’t give her up, and I promised my wife not to have a concubine, but…”

If he had to go against Mo Shujun for this reason, he wouldn’t have a chance to win even when he was willing to, not to mention that he was unwilling.

Mo Shujun was above him in the aspect of status. If he openly turned against her, he might be the next to be disowned.

The crime was ready. He didn’t respect his parent and should be punished.

Mo Junyang heard Shi Junhe’s annoyance and tut-tutted, expressing nonchalantly, “You can have one or two of them, but you can’t get all.

General Shi, it’s great to have a wish, but anybody can’t be too greedy.”

Shi Junhe was astonished and listened to Mo Junyang who continued carelessly. “Qingxue, Madam Shi and the baby, and Princess Royal, if you insist on considering for everybody, I can do nothing.

If you plan to give up somebody, I can offer you a practical solution.”

“Do you really have a solution?” Shi Junhe was surprised and doubtful.

Mo Junyang shrugged and smiled. “It depends on whom you will choose.”

It was uncertain that there was threat hidden in these words. Nobody knew if Shi Junhe didn’t notice it or he didn’t care. His face was cold, and he responded seriously, “Your Excellency, please help me. Thanks.”

“Wait.” Mo Junyang laughed and suddenly added, “Of course I can help you, but do you want to gain without paying a price, General Shi?”

Shi Junhe was petrified. He frowned and pondered for a minute before replying. “Your Excellency, if you can help me, tell me what you want.”

Mo Junyang rested his chin on one hand and stated unhurriedly, “I want Qingxue’s marriage certificate.”

Shi Junhe was rendered speechless.

He was ready for Mo Junyang’s high price and had accepted that this man would be his future son-in-law, but…

Why did he still want to beat up this jerk?

What was asking for return after helping somebody else? Mo Junyang just did that!
