Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife
Chapter 7: Is That Mu Qiqi Her Sister?
Sheng Xiao rarely met Mu Qiqi and her aunt after he learned that she was adapting well to her new life.
However, Mu Qiqi yearned to see him as time went on, but she simply did not have any way to contact him.
When Jing Yun himself visited, Mu Qiqi asked that he relay a message to Sheng Xiao so that he visited the small mansion as well.
But Jing Yun did not relay the message, because he believed Sheng Xiao had done enough for her.
In fact, he hoped that Mu Qiqi would not be in touch with Sheng Xiao if it wasn't for something important.
Nonetheless, Mu Qiqi would often stay in the living room to wait for Sheng Xiao, growing more disappointed after every passing day.
"Qiqi, you have a mock exam tomorrow. You should sleep early," Su Zipei said, having arranged and cared for Mu Qiqi's daily life.
"I want to keep watching, Aunt Zipei." Mu Qiqi was staring fixedly at the television.
In the tiny screen, Sheng Xiao was dressed formally and cutting ribbons with a fashion model at the opening ceremony of a jewelry store!
It was probably as close as she could get to him.
And yet he was so far away, a beautiful dream she could not hope to reach!

That night, Sheng Xiao was leaving the ceremony when he was stopped by a friend. "Hmm, where are you going, Young Master Sheng? Aren't you a man? Don't you like any of the gorgeous women around us?"
Sheng Xiao smiled as his friend shambled. "I am a person of refined tastes. I'm not interested in most."
"Tsk, tsk... how boring. Well, I'm giving up on yougo have your own fun!"
Sheng Xiao got on his sports car when he suddenly remembered that the little mansion was just nearby. He felt like it had been some time since she had seen that young lady from the Mu family, not to mention that he never bought Jing Yun's very businesslike reports.
Hence, he simply drove to the little mansion, where he found the lights in Mu Qiqi's room were still on.
