"Don't you want to meet your sweetheart? Or are you going to stand here for eternity?"
Xie Bao's words were the reason for everyone to go inside but everything just stopped at one look of that ethereal smile that spread around Xiao Xing's face.
How can they be unaffected by that smile, which was so enchanted and addictive? They all stood still, looking at this magnificent sight and Xiao Xing remembered how Mo Jin got mesmerized when he first met him.
"Xiao Xing, your smile is so delightful. You are more exquisite than my Yuan gege. Are you sure you are human?"
"Have you done plastic surgery or something, Yuan gege?"
The same question from Xie Nuan made Xiao Xing flinch on the spot. The question that kept churning in Xie Nuan's mind gave a threat to Xiao Xing directly.
"Does she know that I am an imposter? Does she know that I am not Mo Yuan? Have I made any mistake in talking, walking or anything that made her suspicious and now she has asked me the same question again?"
Xie Nuan kept looking at Xiao Xing ceaselessly but her mother's words made Xiao Xing take a breath of relief.
"Xie Nuan, are you out of your mind? What kind of question is this?" Lu Feng asked Xie Nuan in confusion. She went near her and placed her palm on her forehead to check if she was running a fever.
"Oh, Mama what are you doing? Are you checking if I am running a fever?" Xie Nuan held Lu Feng's hand and pulled it down slowly.
"So, what am I supposed to do? You are asking him such types of questions? What do you mean by plastic surgery?" She confirmed her doubt and got a glare from Xie Nuan.
"Mama, I was just joking around. He is just looking like ethereal beauty right now. Have you seen gege's face? He is all crimson just like a tomato. See for yourself." Xie Nuan pushed Lu Feng's shoulders in front of Xiao Xing and felt the rush of more crimson running to Xiao Xing's cheeks. Scrutinizing Xiao Xing's face when Lu Feng felt he was getting more embarrassed by Xie Nuan's talking she turned back to her.
"Why are you troubling Mo Yuan so much? Can't you see that he just came back from clutches of death? He needs to rest well and you are not just letting him relax but even stressing him by asking such kinds of questions. Now let him come inside the house first and don't ever ask such kinds of questions again."
When scolding got over, Lu Feng looked at Xiao Xing one more time and took him inside the mansion to let him meet his sweetheart where Mo Lin held Xie Nuan's wrist tightly to hold her back from going inside the mansion.
"Are you still angry, Nuannuan? Are you not going to forgive me for taking harsh decisions without anyone's consent?" He pulled her back near him and whispered, keeping in mind that they were still standing on the porch of the Mo mansion and well surrounded by servants around them.
"Do I have a say while you all take any decision? It is always either I am the youngest in the family or I have not seen the world." She ripped her wrist from Mo Jin and glared at him again.
"Do you remember when Yuan ge was of my age he took over the Mo empire and proved himself worthy of it? If the Mo family's name still comes in the most powerful family in China then it is all because of him, not someone else. All these things belong only to my Yuan ge. Do you get me?" She announced and walked inside the mansion without giving him a second look.
"I know, I know very well, Xie Nuan but believe me, I am bound to do what I am doing right now. Maybe one day I will let you know all the secrets I have kept inside my heart but I think the time is not right, at least not right now." He mumbled within himself cursing his fate for it and then went inside to see how Xiao Xing was doing with grandma.
"Yuan Yuan…"
The soft motherly whisper when reached the ears of Xiao Xing he instantly ran towards his sweetheart who was waiting for him for a long time. A gorgeous looking lady in her sixties wearing very beautiful white qipao was standing with tears in her eyes that were of happiness.
That hug was something so magical and lovely that it automatically made the strings of pearls run down from both of their eyes like a frozen stream which was ready to flow as soon as it hit with the warmth of love and care.
"Sweetheart...I missed you. I missed you so much. I thought I would never be able to come back ever again. I thought I will never come back to your embrace again. Do you know when I was dying that time I felt like I was never going to see your face again?
In the last two months, I was just moving around like a living corpse, a corpse without feeling, without any emotions. Grandma, I missed you so much."
The words came running from Xiao Xing's mouth like a flood, not ready to stop at all and that made Mo Nuwa get surprised. In his whole life, Mo Yuan never spoke that much at one time.
"Yuan Yuan, Now you are with me, right? Don't worry now I am not going to let you go away from me. I will always keep you safe with me. I will not, anyone, harm you or hurt you. Don't be afraid.
I know how it must have felt like torture not remembering anything about yourself but see you can remember a few things about yourself, you will remember everything slowly. I will get you to the best doctors here. I will do everything that will make you remember everything. I will do anything for my child. Anything."
Her words touched the soul of Xiao Xing. He felt much relieved by her embrace which reminded him of his mother and sister at the same time. It was the same. Very peaceful and tranquil. All his worries and distress melted away like they were never there in the first place.
"Sweetheart, Why does it always feel so peaceful when a mother embraces a mother? Why do mothers know everything about their children? Why does everything become easy and susceptible to heart? What magic do they have in their embrace?"
A soft chuckle could be heard by all of them and when they looked at the source of it they all got amused looking at the adorable smile that scattered around the old lady. Xiao Xing got every bit of his beauty from his grandma, everyone thought the same.
"You will understand my child. Soon when you become the mother of Xie Jayden's child you will understand everything."
As Mo Nuwa said it, she saw the crimson colour scattered on the face of Xiao Xing and she understood the meaning behind it, though it was exactly the opposite of what Xiao Xing thought about it the colour stayed intact till he hasn't heard the next words of Mo Lin,
"Gege, the doctor has asked you to take a rest. Come gege you get fresh first then at lunch you can speak with everyone."
"Yes, Yuan'er, you must go to your room and take a rest for some time. Get ready for lunch. Xie Jayden is coming to meet you at lunch. He is outside the city right now. It will take a few hours to reach here. Till then, take a rest. I will ask someone to call you."
When Lu Feng's words touched Xiao Xing's ears all the blood got drained out from his face like it was a white paper.
"He is coming to meet me at lunch. Oh, God why my blood pressure seems to increase like temperature in summers. Help me god at this rate I will get a heart attack only at this age. Help me, save me, god."
When grandma Nuwa saw Xiao Xing's pale face, she immediately turned to Mo Jin and asked him to take Xiao Xing into his room.
"Why are you standing there, Lin'er take Mo Yuan to his room immediately. See, how weak he has got. His face is looking so pale right now. Go and make sure he doesn't open the door of his office and take proper rest."
