Substituting An Ugly Duckling As The Bride

In the fire four years ago, everything was burnt to ashes. Chi Xiao returned to the Chi family this time with the sole purpose of finding her missing child four years ago. However, the heir of the Mo family in the Capital City was seriously ill and was on the verge of death. Chi Xiao's stepmother suddenly arranged for Chi Xiao to marry into the Mo family in place of her biological daughter. She was to marry Mo Ting to counteract his bad luck for someone who was about to die. Chi Xiao's face was covered in scars and she was extremely ugly. As she married the Mo family's heir who was about to die of illness, everyone in the Capital City was waiting to watch her make a fool of herself. However, not long after Chi Xiao married into the Mo family, the heir of the Mo family recovered from his illness. At that moment, all the young ladies in the Capital City started wondering, "Chi Xiao, this ugly freak, is simply an eyesore. She's weak and useless. How can she be fit to be the young lady of the Mo family without any family background?" Chi Xiao scoffed. She removed her disguise to reveal a stunningly beautiful face. No family background? She was the daughter of the top wealthy family in the Capital City. Was that information useful? Weak and useless? Mo Ting smiled as he presented proof, "I wish to thank my wife for saving my life. The famous physician that I failed to hire with money turns out to be the woman I hadn't officially married. I must have made everyone worry." The top jewelry designer, a mysterious hacker of the international level, internationally known artist... As each of Chi Xiao's multiple identities started to unravel, the world was shocked that this ugly daughter born out of wedlock was actually a retired omnipotent bigshot! Everyone started to be salty, "So what? She'd still have to be someone else's stepmother after marrying him anyway, right?" The little dumpling took out a DNA test report. "Sorry to disappoint everyone! I'm my mommy's biological son!"

Treat Her Well

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This kind of understanding made Mo Hao shudder.

His head mechanically turned towards his assistant's direction. Even Mo Hao felt that he could hear the cracking sound of his neck turning.

Unfortunately, his assistant did not participate in the matter in his mind. He could only look at him with an even more blank gaze, unable to help him share his worries in the slightest.

"Speaking of which, it seems like it's been a long time since I've spoken to you alone," Mo Hao suddenly said.

The assistant nodded, "Yes, but recently, your relationship with the young master seemed to have eased up a lot. Often, the two of you would talk about something in the study. When someone passed by, you would immediately stop the conversation."

It matched!

The words that came out of the assistant's mouth matched the scene in his memory.

Mo Hao fiercely pulled his hair and said in a low voice, "It seems like I have to tell Mo Ting about this matter."

If Mo Ting really found out what he had done, he was afraid that he would really be banished from the Mo family. In fact, other places might even unite to boycott him in order to curry favor with Mo Ting.

Thinking of this, Mo Hao felt suffocated. He snatched his phone and dialed Mo Ting's number.

On the other side, Mo Ting and Chi Xiao had just finished suspecting Mo Ting's biological father and they were in a very complicated situation. When they suddenly received such a call with such bizarre content, their feelings became even more complicated.

Ever since Mo Ting hung up the phone, he had a strange expression on his face. Seeing this, Chi Xiao felt a little confused. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Mo Ting's eyes, but Mo Ting didn't have any reaction.

It wasn't until Mo Ting suddenly raised his head and asked in a low voice, "Do you think hypnosis really exists?"

"It does." Chi Xiao thought for a moment and said, "A powerful hypnosis master can make a hypnotized person listen to his orders with just a sound or snap of his fingers. They will subtly become his minions."

"Why? Did you meet a powerful hypnotist master?"

Mo Ting hesitated again. "I might have, or might not have. I'm not too sure, but what I can confirm is that the person who sent Wen Yu to you was indeed hypnotized."

Chi Xiao raised her eyebrows and smiled. "Why? Was the person who sent Wen Yu to me was your sixth uncle, Mo Hao?"

Mo Ting did not find it strange that Chi Xiao could guess this from one of his phrases. He had always known that Chi Xiao was smart and powerful. She was also very good at hiding her intelligence.

"It's really him and Seventh Uncle Mo. I don't know if he was hypnotized or if he was with the hypnotist."

Mo Ting said in a measured tone, "We can't even deduce whether the person behind the scenes is from the family or from the outside."

"But no matter what, your plan can be carried out." Chi Xiao smiled, "This won't affect your plan. The result will be that either you cleaned up the family, or really forced the person behind the scenes out."

The two of them did not continue to discuss this topic. Instead, they talked about Mo Han.

Mo Han seemed to have a telepathic connection. After their conversation ended, he held Su Ling's hand and knocked on the door of their room.

Chi Xiao opened the door. The moment she saw Mo Han, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Let me see which baby is here?"

Mo Han was indeed very happy. He giggled and replied, "I'm Han Han the big baby."

"Oh my god, why is baby Han Han so handsome?" Chi Xiao used an exaggerated tone, "Baby Han Han, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"

Mo Han smiled and shook his head. His face was red, "Han Han came after eating at Grandma's place."

"Ah, you've finished you meal? Let Mom touch your small belly to see if it's full."

As she spoke, Chi Xiao mischievously tickled Mo Han's itchy flesh, making the child laugh non-stop.

Su Ling walked to Mo Ting's side with a gratified expression. She looked at the two people who were laughing. "I didn't expect Chi Xiao to have such a personality."

She continued, "When your grandfather decided on this marriage, I strongly disapproved of it. I didn't expect that it would lead to a good marriage."

Mo Ting looked relaxed and happy, but there was no smile on his face.

Su Ling gently tapped Mo Ting's head. "You, don't keep a straight face all day long. Don't scare people away."

"Look at how well Xiao Xiao and Han Han are playing. You won't find such a good woman anywhere else. Treat her better in the future." After a pause, Su Ling added, "Don't dislike her for being ugly. After looking at Xiao Xiao for a long time, her eyebrows and eyes are still very beautiful."

Mo Ting didn't know whether to laugh or cry when his mother warned him to treat her daughter-in-law better. He had no choice but to promise with a helpless expression, "I will treat her well."

Looking at Mo Ting's expression, Su Ling was still a little dissatisfied, but she could only sigh helplessly. "Alright, don't just say it and not do it. Let me tell you, I won't be able to find a daughter-in-law like Xiao Xiao."

Mo Ting nodded in agreement. He was also very satisfied with Chi Xiao in his heart. His Xiao Xiao was smart and beautiful. How could he not treat her well?
