148: All mine

All mine

" Are you really going to act like such?" Mo Qiang hummed as she arched a brow and then looked at the stubborn Mo Xifeng in front of her. She was not even surprised that the latter tried to go against her given how prideful Mo Xifeng usually acted, she had found out from Yin Fu that her sister was clearly suffering because of mania but she still refused to show it in front of her or anyone else.1

" I don't understand what you are trying to say, sister, obviously I am fine without any trouble at all," Mo Xifeng turned to look at the soldiers who were hesitating to drill the logs of wood together and frowned before saying, " What are you doing if you continue to work like this, we are not going to finish this coop even in our last life." 

" But the wood is so shiny and sturdy, Miss Xifeng," one of the soldiers could not help but say as she looked at the log of wood which was in her hands if one did not see it clearly they would have thought that she was holding her lover instead of a log of wood. 

" If you do a good job then I will allow you to take the scarps of wood after the chicken coop is done," Mo Qiang spoke up as she placed her arm on Mo Xifeng's shoulder while looking at the soldiers who were walking towards the construction site with heavy logs of wood on their shoulders. These soldiers who were working under her mother were sturdy to begin with, even though they were losing their touch it was only because they were not making use of their skills but with a little push from her and Mo Yan, they were back to working hard. 

When the soldiers heard that they will be able to get the leftover pieces of wood their eyes lit up and they immediately cheered happily before turning to go back and work.  It was clear that their morals which was a bit down were raised and they were more than happy to continue their work.

Mo Qiang turned to look at Mo Xifeng who was standing beside her with a stiff look on her face, seeing this Mo Qiang was tickled as she said in a cheeky voice, " Do you know why you couldn't think of an idea other than scolding them? That's because your head is so noisy that you can't even think of something other than trying to calm your anger while trying to suppress your frustration. It's because of this reason and nothing else." 

" You are thinking too much, I just did not think that there was any reason for me to distribute leftover wood logs to these soldiers, it was a small slight on my part and nothing else," as she spoke Mo Xifeng sighed in a tired manner causing Mo Qiang to snap her fingers as she looked at her and said, " Look at that, look at that you are getting angry, are you not?" 

" I am not getting angry," stated Mo Xifeng firmly causing Mo Qiang to hum as she continued, " Then impatient? It's one of the two right? Then why don't you take my help? I promise you will be fine, super duper fine with my help." 

" No, thanks," Mo Xifeng had no idea what was going on with Mo Qiang but she was not going to accept such a dangerous suggestion.  Four years of hard practice, along with training and meditation and that was how she was able to summon a mecha weapon. There was no way Mo Qiang will be able to do it in three weeks, if she was to hurry then she will only harm herself and nothing more. 

Mo Qiang pursed her lips when she saw that Mo Xifeng was not accepting her offer. Seeing her sister go silent Mo Xifeng thought that Mo Qiang had given up on her intentions of condensing her core energy in just three weeks, she heaved a sigh of relief causing Mo Qiang who was standing next to Mo Xifeng to curl her lips. 

Her dear sister seemed to have underestimated her a lot. 

  Because there was no way she was going to give up so easily instead of giving up, she was going to continue with her pursuit for the next five days. 

Something that she indeed started to do from the very next day. 

It did not matter whether Mo Xifeng was showering, eating or running, Mo Qiang would turn up at every possible time and chance causing Mo Xifeng to be stunned by her dedication and shamelessness.

" Are you really sure that you don't need my help? I think you do. Look at that frown! Look at that twitching of your brows. You are angry are you not? You are angry are you not? Then why don't you listen to me?" 

Even when she was training at the chasm of death, Mo Qiang somehow managed to chase her there while riding the flying car she chattered from behind as she broke boulders of red stone.

" Xifeng, are you angry? Why are you chopping the boulders? Is this an anger management issue of yours? I think you should take up my offer. It will be much better than that." 

Mo Xifeng who planned to sharpen her sword on the boulder had to stop her training and return home without doing anything more. She thought that her sister would stop but instead, she continued her torment even at dinner. 

" Why are you slicing the chicken meat so harshly? Is this a way of releasing your anger as well?" Mo Xifeng heard Mo Qiang ask as she looked at her eating, they were eating the meat of the old three-horned chicken that Madam Lian and Ou Qi hunted. 

Mo Xifeng who was eating silently raised her head and looked at her sister who was smiling at her with a cheeky grin causing Mo Xifeng to smile as well.

" Of course not, I was just in a hurry to finish the meal and nothing else." 

Though she did not say anything and her expression was calm, Mo Xifeng was yelling at the top of her lungs inwardly.
