Chapter 467 - I Like You

"Brother Feng Xing, you knew about it too, right?" Shen Yu Rou looked at Shen Feng Xing with a smile.

"When… When did you find out about it? How… How did you know?" Shen Feng Xing asked as he rushed forward to wipe away Shen Yu Rou's tears.

"A few years ago, while I was still studying in middle school, we did a biology experiment and I took mom and dad's hair to play with it. However, after I did the experiments, I realised that my results didn't match. I asked my teacher about it and she told me that I might have made a mistake in my experiment or that I am not their biological children. I didn't believe in the latter one so I took their hair again and passed them to my teacher. It turns out that I am really neither of their children. I was lost at first because mom and dad rarely showed up and cared for me and you, and if I am not even their child, then who am I?"

Tears welled up in Shen Yu Rou's eyes once again as she spoke and she swallowed the lump in her throat before she continued.

"However, after that, I realized that none of it mattered because grandfather and grandmother truly care about me. So, even if I am not mom and dad's biological child, I am still grandfather and grandmother's grandchildren. Besides, I am really happy now that they are really not my parents because at least I won't be like them and do all those bad things. I don't have their blood in me, and I can openly say that I like you since I am not the true princess of the Xiao or Shen family. I don't have to listen to whatever mom and dad have to say about me and you being together. I don't have to worry about them disagreeing. Although I might disappoint grandfather and grandmother at first, I am sure they would support us eventually because they were the ones that brought us up. They know us very well and I think that they will support us. Besides, I will do my best to convince them so that we can have their blessings to be together. They are not important to you, they are important to me as well, but you are the most important person in my heart," Shen Yu Rou smiled genuinely and happily as she hugged Shen Feng Xing.

Shen Feng Xing's heart skipped a beat when he heard Shen Yu Rou saying that she liked him.

Shen Feng Xing hugged her tightly again, "Why didn't you tell me? You could have told me about it and at least there was someone that could have lent you a shoulder to cry on and listened to your thoughts..."

"I didn't want to create a commotion at home and I didn't want to disappoint grandfather and grandmother as well because they really loved you and me."

Shen Yu Rou then looked up, "Then, why didn't you tell me?"

"I… I only found out about it recently…"

Shen Yu Rou's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion and Shen Feng Xing looked at the watch before he spoke, "There's someone that told me about it."

"Who?"

"You will know in the future. For now, just pretend as though you don't know about any of these."

Shen Yu Rou nodded before she leaned her head against Shen Feng Xing's ċhėst.

After a few moments of silence, Shen Feng Xing spoke as he tightened his hold on Shen Yu Rou, "I like you…"

Shen Yu Rou smiled, "Have your lunch first. If not, the food will turn cold and sour."

"Mm." Shen Feng Xing kissed Shen Yu Rou's head briefly before he left again with his phone and lunchbox.

Shen Yu Rou's cheeks turned red slightly because this was the first time that they had a more intimate gesture, but she was very happy about it because they could finally say their feelings out loud.

Once Shen Feng Xing was out, he messaged Mo Xi and told her about the matter.

Meanwhile. In Mo Xi's private training area.

"Your fighting skills are finally back!" Xue Yue said in excitement after she ended her fight with Mo Xi.

Mo Xi smiled in excitement as well because she had finally found the right technique that suited her new breathing patterns and still could defeat Poker! Her initial phase of training had little to no progress, but over these two weeks, her skills improved exponentially.

"It seems like we have everything ready."

"That's right. This time around, let's make sure to capture all of them," Vincent added as he high-fived Valerie discretely.

"By the way, where's your husband?" Xue Yue then asked out of curiosity because she hadn't seen Mo Xi contacting him for the past two weeks.

"I have no idea where he had gone to as well… I couldn't reach him ever since that day and he hadn't come to find me or contact me either. The only thing I know is that he is safe…"

"Is it because he is in the military for the past two weeks and hadn't gone to Jing Corporation at all that he couldn't contact you?"

"I am not sure either, but I think he is planning something…"

"Hmm… I wonder what it is…"

"That's what I want to know also. I am really worried… However, at least I know that he is safe and sound through the monitoring system…"

"Don't worry. Your man is very strong and he loves you too much to leave you," Xue Yue smiled as she comforted Mo Xi."

"That's true. He has been through a lot as well, so he is definitely very strong!" Mo Xi said in a determined voice as she stood up.

"It's my turn now!" Bai Lang Yu then said as he stood in front of Mo Xi.

Mo Xi got into position and quickly continued on with her training.
