Mo Qiang was slapped ——2

Mo Xifeng still could not understand why Fu Qi Hong was looking at her like they were having some secret affair. However since the other party was an imperial prince, she couldn't refuse him and thus agreed with a soft bow, " I understand your highness. Please follow me." 

With that, she turned on her heels and then headed towards the resting area with Fu Qi Hong following closely behind her. 

As the others watched them leave, Fu Zhao turned to look at Mo Yan and then remarked in a teasing manner, " I think we will become in-laws one way or another, Ah Yan. Why don't you think about coming back to the imperial Star?"

" Please stop joking, Your Majesty," Though Mo Yan did not know why Fu Qi Hong called Mo Xifeng out to talk without anyone prying into their conversation, she had a feeling that even if this was a confession Mo Xifeng might not accept Fu Qi Hong because her daughter —— still hadn't moved on from the heartbreak. 

Six years of relationship broken in a matter of seconds all because of a fake accusation. If that mer truly loved her daughter then he would have stayed with her no matter what situation she was in, after all, it was she who was accused as a traitor and not her daughters. 

But that mer jumped into the arms of another woman the second he found out that Mo Xifeng's future prospects were in shambles after the sudden accusation. For Mo Xifeng to forget about that betrayal so quickly, it was nearly impossible. 

While Mo Yan had her worries, the mers had their own worries. 

Yin Fu who clearly sensed Fu Qi Hong's interest towards his wife was quite uneasy in his heart.  He had a feeling that whatever was going to happen now, was definitely not something that he wished to see, his right eye was twitching and every time his right eye twitched, something bad happened! 

While Shao Hui frowned at the two, he waited for jealousy to usurp his heart but scarily enough nothing like that happened to make his face turn extraordinarily pale. On the other Xie Jie calmly glanced at the two figures walking out of the ward and blinked his eyes while rubbing his fingers —— he too waited for a sort of nervousness to hit his heart but unfortunately for him, he did not feel a flicker of emotions. 

It looks like he didn't like Mo Xifeng as much as he thought he did. 

….

On the other side, inside the resting room, Mo Xifeng poured some maple syrup water for Fu Qi Hong. Since the two of them were alone, she did not stay close to Fu Qi Hong, once she was done pouring the water in a small drinking vessel, she sat on the bed which was quite far from the chair on which Fu Qi Hong was sitting.

When Fu Qi Hong saw Mo Xifeng pour out clean and refreshing water from the thermos, he was stunned beyond his beliefs. At first, when he heard Mo Qiang tell his mother that she could purify water, he thought that she was exaggerating her skills as there were many core users who could purify water but their purification skills were never up to the mark as the water purified by them was not fit for human consumption. 

But the clear liquid in the small thermo cup was enough to relay just how powerful Mo Qiang's skills were! 

' However, does this taste good?' Fu Qi Hong thought in his head before bringing the thermo cup to his lips and then taking a sip. The second the warm water trickled down his throat, Fu Qi Hong felt his eyes widen as a refreshing taste burst in his mouth, clearing half of his stress away. 

He brought his hand close to his mouth in shock as he commented, " This is wonderful!" 

"Of course, Daddy Gui added A+++ grade maple syrup in it which is why the water tastes sweeter and refreshing," explained Mo Xifeng, there was a touch of warmth in her voice as she spoke highly of Mo Qiang. " My sister did a great job in raising those maple trees and corn seeds." 

Once Mo Xifeng brought the matter of those maple and corn seeds up, Fu Qi Hong could not stop himself from lowering his head as he shyly said, " Well, half of the credit goes to you as well, Miss Xifeng." He placed the cup on the table before smiling at Mo Xifeng and adding softly, " If not for you, Miss Qiang would've never gotten the chance to grow those trees." 

This time, Mo Xifeng was even more confused as she furrowed her brows and then said, " Half of my credit? How? I did not do anything." 

While Mo Xifeng was speaking the truth, Fu Qi Hong thought that she was just being humble and praised her even more passionately, " Miss Xifeng, your heart is really big. You were the one who won the contest and handed the seeds to your sister but even so, you refuse to let others know of your contribution." 

" Contest? What contest?" Mo Xifeng got more and more confused with the conversation, she felt like the prince and her were not even having a conversation on the same plane. What contest was he talking about?

" You don't have to be shy," Fu Qi Hong smiled at Mo Xifeng understandingly, he knew that Mo Xifeng was a woman of few words and thus she must be having a hard time accepting the fact that she wrote such wonderful romantic poetry for him.

But this was what he liked about her! This woman expressed her heartfelt feelings for him silently but now that he was in front of her, she was having a hard time being honest in front of him! 

It was just so 'moe'! Kyaaah!!

With his hands cupping his face, he continued, " I know everything Miss Xifeng and just so you know I am willing to try it out with you as you are the kind of woman, I like."
