Lu Jiuqing looked at Mo Xiao blankly.

This seemed to be the first time Mo Xiao had declared his love so directly.

Although his various actions are enough to explain everything, it is different from saying it personally.

Mo Xiao felt a little uncomfortable being looked at, but he tensed up and thought to himself: I've already said it anyway, so why not just do it all in one go?

Mo Xiao raised his hand and held Lu Jiuqing's hand, looked at her and said, "It's been so long, aren't you sure yet? Qingqing, I love you, I love you very much."

"You don't need to belittle yourself. You are you. This is you I love. You are irreplaceable to anyone in this world."

Lu Jiuqing moved her lips and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word.

Mo Xiao didn't force her. He leaned over and kissed her lightly on the forehead: "You don't have to be burdened. Loving you is my own business. You don't have to think about how to respond to me."

He didn't want to push Lu Jiuqing too hard. If the person ran away again, where would he find him?

This is good now. As long as Lu Jiuqing is still by his side, he has time to love her and impress her.

Lu Jiuqing lowered his eyes and hummed softly.

Mo Xiao didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he changed the subject with a smile: "Ning Ning is outside, do you want to meet her?"

As expected, Lu Jiuqing's attention was diverted: "Ning Ning is here?"

"He's waiting for you to have dinner." Mo Xiao said with a smile.

Lu Jiuqing immediately stood up, packed himself up, and headed out.

Mo Xiao looked at her hurried back and shook his head helplessly. When will his status be promoted? I didn't want to see Mo Chengning's proud face.

By the time Mo Xiao slowly walked to the dining table, the mother and son were already talking affectionately, completely unaware of Mo Xiao's arrival.

Mo Xiao curled his lips, "If the mountain doesn't come, I'll be there. If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain." He simply sat next to Lu Jiuqing and took the initiative to pick up food for Lu Jiuqing while Lu Jiuqing was talking to Mo Chengning. He was even more attentive than the little eunuch serving next to him.

The little eunuch was robbed of his job by the emperor and could only stand behind awkwardly with serving chopsticks.

Although Lu Jiuqing was talking to Mo Chengning, he kept noticing Mo Xiao from the corner of his eye and could see all his little moves.

Lu Jiuqing pretended not to see this kind of person looking for a sense of presence.

The family of three enjoyed themselves happily and had a harmonious dinner.

However, after dinner, Mo Xiao looked coldly at the bowl of dark concoction.

Lu Jiuqing was sitting next to him, staring at him closely.

Mo Xiao was silent for a moment, and then said: "Let the medicine dry first. You and Ning Ning haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't you go out to play?"

Lu Jiuqing: "No, I'll watch you drink the medicine before talking."

Mo Xiao: "..."

Mo Xiao and Lu Jiuqing looked at each other for a moment, still unmoved.

Lu Jiuqing came back to his senses and frowned: "You are injured. Even if you are afraid of suffering, you must drink this medicine."

Mo Xiao: "It's not that I'm afraid of hardship...it's just that it tastes bad."

"Good medicine is bitter, but it will pass after you endure it," Lu Jiuqing said softly, "I didn't really like taking medicine a few years ago, but later..."

"Okay, stop talking, I'll drink." Mo Xiao interrupted Lu Jiuqing's words, picked up the soup and drank it all in one gulp.

The sufferings that Lu Jiuqing suffered were like thorns in Mo Xiao's heart. A single touch would cause blood to drip from the pain.

A girl who was so afraid of pain would eat medicine as if it were food. She would take medicine for many years. Later, she would drink even the bitter medicine without changing her expression.
