She's from My Family

Mo Su is too straightforward. Shangguan Qingmu represses his smile, then stares at Mo Su, He remarks, "Mo Su, from the city of Li, born in the People's Hospital of the Jiangxia District of Li City in the SS year, a family of five..." With the details of her identity being stated, Mo Su pressed down her sulking brows, visibly displeased. She had a somewhat cold look in her eyes: "Investigating me?" Shangguan Qingmu: "A mere teenage girl has beaten our coach, who is a special forces soldier, in a race, breaking the record of our military region's 150-meter obstacle race, and even hitting a score today that a professional sniper could never achieve. We can't help but be suspicious." Mo Su: "What are you suspecting? That I'm a spy from some country?" Shangguan Qingmu: "You sure dare to say it." Mo Su: "So, did you find anything?" Shangguan Qingmu: "We will perform further investigations. The military training will end tomorrow, until we find out, you need to stay here and cooperate with us. Once your identity is cleared, we will personally take you back to school." The infiltration of foreign forces is severe, and this time, there might be infiltration into universities like Jing University, and even their military. They absolutely need to check, they have to take it seriously. Mo Su: "How should I cooperate? Lock me up?" Shangguan Qingmu: "If you do not mind, you can stay in my office for a couple of days, I will personally take care of you." Mo Su: "What if I say I mind, I won't cooperate?" Shangguan Qingmu: "I'm afraid that's not up to you." The two confronted each other, both feeling the other's chilling aura at that moment. Shangguan Qingmu was astounded that a young girl could have such a strong aura, which made him take Mo Shu more seriously. Well, they were just doing their jobs, serving the country and the people, putting forth their best effort — this was a good thing, something to be praised. Mo Shu lamented her own publicity. Mo Shu suppressed her aura, telling herself that she was now just an ordinary student, and she couldn't act irresponsibly like she used to, walking away right under their noses. "Two hours and this is the basic information you have?" said Mo Shu. Not bothering to look at Instructor Hou's expression, she asked, "May I make a call?" Both Shangguan Qingmu and Instructor Hou exchanged glances. Shangguan Qingmu answered, "Sure, you can make a call right here." Mo Shu replied, "Of course." Mo Shu then took out her cell phone. As Mo Shu was scrolling through her phone, her ear twitched. It made her think if she should tell them, "I'll dial slow, wait for you guys?" Or should she call the person over directly, letting them check face-to-face? Mo Shu dialed a number, "Mr. Leng…" "Yeah, alright, you tell them, thank you." The call ended, and the communications soldier came back, leaning close to Shangguan Qingmu and saying, "We couldn't intercept any signals." Shangguan Qingmu's eyebrows furrowed, his face growing a shade grimmer. Mo Shuxin said: "If you could intercept, consider me useless." Shangguan Qingmu glanced at Mo Shuxin, about to say something when the phone on his desk rang. He walked over and picked it up. Instructor Hou, being closer to Mo Shuxin, had tried to eavesdrop on her call but hadn't heard a thing. Her cell phone must have been tampered with, otherwise with his acute hearing and their close proximity, there's no way he would've heard nothing. Shangguan Qingmu on the phone: "Yo, when do you find time to call me? Huh? What did you say? You're a Leng family member?" Shangguan Qingmu froze, lifting his eyes to look at Mo Shuxin who stood there. Then he switched hands to hold the phone: "You...I need to confirm with you, this female student from Licheng named Mo Shuxin. Is she your Leng family member?" On the other end of the call, a deep, magnetic male voice: "Yes, she is my family, Leng's." The Leng family? Which Leng family? Could it be... Instructor Hou glanced at Mo Shuxin, then at the expression on Shangguan Qingmu's face. Moments ago, Mo Shuxin had made a call in front of them, telling the person on the other end that she was suspected of being a spy of a certain country because of her standout performance and asked them to speak on her behalf. Instructor Hou had thought at the time: As expected, she's still too naive. This matter is important and not something that can be deceived with a little connection. Even the "Mr. Leng" mentioned by her might have to be investigated by them, and perhaps everyone involved would be rounded up in the end. And now... Upon hearing Mo Shu's phone call seeking connections, Shangguan Qingmu felt the same as Instructor Hou. And at this moment... he put down his phone, laughed heartily: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. It's all in the family." Seeing his reaction, Instructor Hou commented, "It seems to indeed be that Leng Family." Mo Shu asked, "Can I leave now?" "Erm..." Shangguan Qingmu wanted to say something more. For example, he wanted to apologize to Mo Shu, comfort her, or compliment her on her excellent shooting skills. However, it seemed that Mo Shu didn't need any of that. Left with no other choice, he smiled and nodded, "Sure, sure. Go back to military training. Everything's okay now." After Mo Shu left, Instructor Hou confirmed, "Is she from the Leng Family?" Shangguan Qingmu nodded, "I was wondering why that kid from the Leng Family suddenly sent so many good pieces of equipment to our military region." "Even sending things like sunscreen and mosquito repellent to the female students. Turns out, the equipment was just a cover. The real deal was catering to the young ladies." Only then did Shangguan Qingmu realize that when Mo Shu said they could only manage to find a little bit of information after two hours, she meant they didn't discover her relationship with Leng Yuanjun. Shangguan Qingmu pointed at the window, "He was peeking around with a telescope. I thought there must have been a junior from the Leng family attending the military training. So I specifically asked around, thinking about doing him a favor. After checking many people with the last name 'Leng' in Jing City, it turns out her last name is 'Mo'." "Turns out that our entire military region has been basking in the glory of this young lady." "I really didn't expect that the dignified Third Young Master of the Leng family, who has always been strict with himself, would turn out to be a despotic ruler in ancient times." "This spendthrift guy doesn't hesitate to spend money when wooing a girl. It's just like him." People who are with Leng Yuanjin are no ordinary folks - even if Mo Shu sprouted three heads and six arms, she wouldn’t be considered strange. After lunch, Mo Shu returned to her dormitory to rest. As soon as she entered the door, she heard several girls discussing her shooting record. When they saw her come in, they all fell silent. Just as she was preparing for a rest, Instructor Hou showed up at the door and knocked. "Mo Shu, come with me." Mo Shu looked visibly irritated, but still got up to accompany the instructor. As they walked she asked, "What's the matter now?" Instructor Hou replied, "You'll find out when we get there." After speaking, he subtly sized up Mo Shu. The girls in the dormitory chatted amongst themselves: "Why are they looking for her again?" "Could it be because of her exceptional physical fitness? Did she catch the attention of some high-ranking officer who wants to recruit her into the army?" "Pfft, all she can do is run a little. Do you think high-ranking officers have nothing better to do than care about such trifles?" Mo Shu followed Instructor Hou back to Officer Shangguan Qingmu's office. Two people were sitting on the sofa. Shangguan Qingmu was sitting directly facing the door. The man was sitting with his back turned, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, his long legs crossed, chatting with Shangguan Qingmu. "Eh, she's here." Shangguan Qingmu noticed Mo Shu. Mo Shu walked over and looked at Leng Yuanjin on the sofa, saying, "Didn't I make myself clear over the phone? Why did you have to make a special trip?" Mo Shu's tone and these words surprised Shangguan Qingmu, who stealthily widened his eyes. This was definitely the first time that Shangguan Qingmu had heard anyone talk to Leng Yuanjin in such a manner, the latter was even addressed without any form of respectful title. In the underworld, who wouldn't show great respect upon meeting Leng Yuanjin, courteously addressing him as "Third Master Leng"? Not to mention speaking to him in this tone. Leng Yuanjin turned his head to look at her, "It's not a long way, thought I'd come and put your mind at ease." Just like that? She found it hard to believe. Leng Yuanjin patted the seat next to him with a slight smile on his face, "Sit." Mo Shu walked over and sat down, comfortably crossing her legs. Shangguan Qingmu looked at the two sitting across from him who were not only positioned identically but even had their legs crossed in the same direction. His heart was itching with curiosity. Leng Yuanjin uncrossed his legs and took up the teapot and cup. He carefully rinsed the cup with water then poured a cup of tea for Mo Shu. Mo Shu took it and drank a couple of sips. Shangguan Qingmu: "It's my first time seeing such a scene." Leng Yuanjin: "How have you been feeling these days?" Mo Shu: "It's not as fun as in the M continent." Saying so, she reached out to put the cup back on the table. But the table was a bit out of reach. Just as Mo Shu was about to lower her leg and lean over to place it, Leng Yuanjin reached out at this moment, took the cup, and put it back on the table for her. Shangguan Qingmu took a sharp breath: "It's also my first time seeing such a scene."
