Chapter 813: New Information 1
Si Mingjing nodded. Yesterday, her elder brother called her, asking her to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the aerospace base.
This is the first time for the Mu Continent, a symbolic move indicating the country’s commitment to focusing on aerospace development.
During the New Year’s address, she mentioned in a live broadcast that the Mu Continent would establish an aerospace base and vigorously develop the aerospace industry to expand the exploration of the universe, which has sparked widespread discussion among the public over the past month.
After drying their hair, the two went to the dining room for a meal.
Xiao Chaoyang and Xi Lei were also brought to the dining room to eat by their attending attendants.
Upon seeing Mo Yinhe elegantly sitting in the dining room having a meal, Su Chaoyang and Xi Lei got excited and dashed over.
"Daddy~~"
"Daddy~~ When did you come?"
Mo Yinhe picked up Su Chaoyang and placed her on his lap, pinching her soft little cheeks, he said, "Do you miss Daddy?"
"Yes~~~" Su Chaoyang, the little darling, hugged Mo Yinhe’s face and gave him a big smack on his forehead, saying, "Mommy misses Daddy more than Yangyang does. Mommy calls Daddy’s name in her sleep."
While Si Mingjing was drinking seafood porridge, she choked upon hearing this. She asked, "Did I?"
"Mommy did; Yangyang heard it~~ Daddy, quickly kiss Mommy~~~"
Mo Yinhe laughed so hard that he almost couldn’t close his mouth and agreed with his daughter, saying, "Okay, Daddy will properly kiss Mommy to comfort her lovesickness."
As he spoke, Mo Yinhe leaned in, but Si Mingjing, feeling shy, pushed him away.
She firmly denied, "No such thing!"
"Mingjing, with our daughter as a witness, I know you miss me every day," Mo Yinhe said smugly.
At this moment, someone walked in.
It was Si Lisao.
He was concerned about Si Mingjing’s health and rushed over from the office as soon as he heard she was awake.
"How are you?" Si Lisao examined her complexion.
Si Mingjing said, "Brother, I’m fine."
Si Lisao grunted, pulled out an empty chair next to them, and asked someone to bring him a set of tableware.
Mo Yinhe raised an eyebrow, "Did I invite you for breakfast?"
Si Lisao ignored Mo Yinhe; it was almost noon, why eat breakfast?
He was having lunch!
Si Mingjing kicked Mo Yinhe, making him stop his impulse to confront further. He placed Xiao Chaoyang on his lap and focused on feeding his daughter.
At the dining table, Si Lisao’s expression was somber, cool, and steady: "I just received some news."
Si Mingjing listened intently.
"The King of Gendaya is critically ill; Qu Liushang might succeed the throne soon."
Mo Yinhe slightly raised his eyes, "How come I haven’t heard?"
Immediately, Mo Yinhe’s face turned dark, his information lagged behind Si Lisao’s information?
Qu Liushang continued, "Qu Liushang went to Lemuria secretly not long ago. It’s unclear what agreement was reached, but it’s certain that the two countries have formed an alliance."
This didn’t really surprise Mo Yinhe.
Last time, my brother-in-law went with him to Gendaya to save Mingjing, missiles were launched precisely around the Gendaya Imperial Capital at sea, and such precise targeting had long shocked Gendaya and Lemuria.
The best solution for the two countries, naturally, is to form an alliance.
After all, now Mu Continent and Atlantis have had two marriages, as close as family!
Mo Yinhe touched his chin, wickedly speculating, "Is Qu Liushang going to Lemuria to marry a princess and form a marital alliance?"
Si Lisao shared the same thought as Mo Yinhe, but what remained uncertain now was which princess of Lemuria Qu Liushang would marry. It was said that there were as many as five eligible princesses in Lemuria.
Su Chaoyang’s little darling counted with her fingers while eating the food sent to her mouth by her dad and mumbled, "Daddy, I guess it might be the Third Princess~~"
"The Third Princess?" Mo Yinhe lowered his head, looking at his daughter, a reward for being able to make such deductions, and patted her little head.
Si Lisao, however, furrowed his brows deeply.
Si Mingjing observed and asked, "Brother, is there something amiss?"
Si Lisao glanced at the relaxed Mo Yinhe and said in a solemn voice, "Have you seen the Third Princess of Lemuria?"
Mo Yinhe’s expression was calm; he said, "I haven’t seen her. Why, is she a great beauty? Prettier than my baby?"
In Mo Yinhe’s eyes, only his own baby mattered; he wasn’t interested in others.
Having seen the majestic seas, he’s not interested in lesser landscapes.
Si Lisao fiddled with his ring phone, searched for information about the Third Princess of Lemuria on a search engine, and cast it onto the screen at the dining table, enlarging the photo of the Third Princess of Lemuria to let Mo Yinhe have a good look.
The indifferent Mo Yinhe glanced uninterestedly and in just one glance, his face suddenly darkened!
The next second, the chopsticks in his hand slammed heavily on the table with a bang, and he angrily said, "Preposterous!"
The slightly cool kid Xi Lei raised his little head and said, "Uh, Mom, she looks a bit like you~~"
Not very much, at most about fifty percent resemblance.
But even a fifty percent resemblance was enough to touch Mo Yinhe’s inverse scale, causing his temper to flare up. Was Qu Liushang finding a substitute after failing to get his baby princess, to gaze upon daily?
Gazing day and night is one thing, but sleeping at night is another!
Who knew who would come to mind while sleeping?
Mo Yinhe’s face turned extremely sour, and an aura of suppressed anger seemed to radiate.
Si Mingjing also squinted slightly.
Who Qu Liushang wanted to marry was none of her business, and it had nothing to do with her, but Qu Liushang marrying someone fifty percent similar to her was truly unsettling, making her feel nauseous, let alone her husband getting furious, she too felt repugnant.
Si Mingjing sneered and asked, "Has this marriage been confirmed?"
Si Lisao speculated, "Eight or nine out of ten, once the old king of Gendaya passes and Qu Liushang ascends the throne, that might be his wedding day."
Lemuria’s Third Princess, named Feng Xuezao, is the full-blooded younger sister of Lemuria Crown Prince Feng Chonghua, renowned for her beauty and talent in Lemuria.
Si Lisao said, "The King of Gendaya should not have long to live; news of his death may be out within this week. He suddenly became critically ill. Last year, you treated the King of Gendaya, how was his health back then?"
Si Mingjing pondered deeply and said, "His health was quite good, vibrant even, his sudden critical illness seems suspicious."
Si Lisao nodded, full of implication, "It’s said that it was revenge from the late Queen’s maid, who poisoned Gendaya’s king’s food."
Si Mingjing was astonished, "Being a king, how can his diet be so careless?"
Even as Si Mingjing, her diet is very cautious, everything she eats or drinks is thoroughly inspected before consumption.
Previously living in Yecheng, if she wanted to buy a milk tea, Song Yuan would inspect the milk tea shop thoroughly, and after several times, Si Mingjing found it uninteresting and stopped ordering milk tea from outside.
Si Lisao indeed had a strong information network, even stronger than Mo Yinhe’s, knowing all these things about which Mo Yinhe had no clue.
He said, "It was because of eating wood ear mushrooms soaked for many days."
