Chapter 71 - Sister-In-Law

"Young lady, thank you so much for saving my father!" Ji Tian Ping said gratefully.

"Xi, thank you for saving my grandfather!" Ji Zheng Yang said as he bowed to Mo Xi.

"No! No! No! Uncle, it's fine! Brother Yang, please don't bow!" Mo Xi said quickly.

"Zheng Yang, you know her?" Ji Tian Ping asked in shock when he heard Ji Zheng Yang calling Mo Xi, Xi, and Mo Xi calling Ji Zheng Yang, brother Yang.

"She is a friend of mine." Ji Zheng Yang knew that Mo Xi and Jing Mo Chen's marriage was kept a secret from the public, so he didn't want to reveal it to others without their permission.

"You should bring your father to the hospital for a thorough check-up. From his pulse he has rather weak health," Mo Xi told Ji Tian Ping.

"Young lady, thank you once again! If you need anything, please call me or Zheng Yang! I will bring my father to the hospital first!" Ji Tian Ping said as he gave his name card to Mo Xi before he turned around to bring Grandpa Ji to the hospital.

Mo Xi looked at the name card and her eyes went wide when she realized that Ji Tian Ping was one of the ministers and candidates for the Presidential election. Knowing that Ji Tian Ping was a minister, Mo Xi could guess the reason why someone wanted to murder Grandpa Ji.

As Ji Tian Ping was a minister, there was no way Mo Xi would allow Ji Tian Ping and Grandpa Ji to go to the hospital without proper protections. Because Poker might have other back-up plans. Although there were bodyguards, those bodyguards are useless against Poker.

"Wait! I will send someone over to accompany you all."

Ji Tian Ping wanted to reject Mo Xi's kind gestures as he didn't know that the person that was about to kill Grandpa Ji was so scary. However, Ji Zheng Yang stopped Ji Tian Ping from rejecting as he knew how serious it was and he trusted that Mo Xi would ensure their safety.

Mo Xi took out her phone and called her people that were in Country X with her.

"Xue Yue, come to XX High School, I need you to protect someone."

"Is it from Poker?"

"Yes. So, come quick."

"Alright."

Ten minutes later, a female appeared, and Mo Xi told Ji Tian Ping that the female would protect him.

After Ji Tian Ping and Grandpa Ji left, Mo Xi then turned to Ji Zheng Yang.

"This is most likely a planned murder, your father is a minister, so it is probably one of the other ministers that are trying to elect for the presidential position. I will go back to the military with you because I need to find out something from him. There aren't any devices that could kill him or any recording device on him. I destroyed his only tracking device, so we can bring him back safely," Mo Xi wanted to know whether there was any link between her family and the person that sent out Five of Clubs to kill Grandpa Ji, hence she decided to interrogate Five of Clubs as well.

"Alright," Ji Zheng Yang knew that Mo Xi needed to know something important from Five of Clubs, so he agreed immediately. Furthermore, he had already contacted Jing Mo Chen, so he knew that Jing Mo Chen would be worried about Mo Xi.

Mo Xi then went onto the helicopter with them to the military base.

On the helicopter.

"Hello, Jackson, I need you to help me get the CCTV footage for the areas around and in XX High School. Send me one copy and destroy the rest immediately. Don't let anyone get them."

"Alright! Got it!"

Ji Zheng Yang looked at Mo Xi questioningly as he heard the call between Mo Xi and Jackson.

"The person that sent Five of Clubs to kill your grandfather would definitely try to get the video footage to see what happened. If he gets the video footage, my identity would be exposed. Luckily there wasn't anyone else over there earlier on."

After finishing her sentence, Mo Xi sensed that Five of Clubs was about to wake up again, so she hit his back once more and he went unconscious once again.

The rest of the military men looked at Mo Xi in awe and in slight fear, fear of being hit by Mo Xi.

"Your grandfather is showing signs of early dementia, you all have to take better care of him. If you all don't mind, you all can bring him to me," Mo Xi felt that Grandpa Ji's dementia wasn't the usual case of dementia as Grandpa Ji had very good health apart from a few weaknesses. Hence, she suspected that Grandpa Ji was drugged.

"I will tell my father about this," Ji Zheng Yang knew that Mo Xi was a doctor, so he wasn't shocked when he heard that.

Military base.

"Little Xi, are you alright?!"

When Jing Mo Chen finished his enclosed training, he received a message from Ji Zheng Yang telling him about what happened earlier. He was scared stiffed when he heard that Mo Xi encountered Five of Spades. When he saw Mo Xi, he pulled her into his arms immediately and hugged her tightly in his arms.

"I am fine… Don't worry!" Mo Xi said as she took in Jing Mo Chen's scent that she hadn't smelt in a long time.

"Hey! Is this sister-in-law? Why is boss so worried?!"

"Boss is hugging her so tightly!"

"I am sure she is sister-in-law!"

The other militaries started to ask Ji Zheng Yang. However, Ji Zheng Yang kept quiet as it wasn't his matter to speak about.

After a while, Mo Xi then realized that they were in the military base, so she coughed awkwardly and turned around to face the rest.

"I will introduce you all to her later, for now, we have more important matters to do," Jing Mo Chen said sternly as he and the other military men got Five of Clubs to the interrogating room.
