Thinking he had found a solution, Mo Jinpeng took a deep breath and spoke to Bai Xinyan with a tone several times gentler than before, saying, “Xinyan, it’s all a misunderstanding. I genuinely care about you, but somehow your brother misunderstood me. But you can’t just run out like this, it will only deepen the conflict between us.”
“What should I do then?” Bai Xinyan quickly asked Mo Jinpeng upon hearing this.
The man seemed patient as he explained, “Even if you explain directly to your brother now, he probably won’t believe you. It’s best for you to go back first, tell your brother that you’ve changed your mind, admit your mistake, and say he did it for your own good…”
But halfway through, Bai Xinyan interrupted with a displeased expression, “What do you mean I made a mistake? It’s clearly my brother who’s overthinking things. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have ended up lying in the hospital for so long with my nose broken and needing to be redone!”
Feeling annoyed by the woman’s stubbornness, Mo Jinpeng could only pat her shoulder to comfort her and continue, “Of course, I know you’re not wrong. But your brother is still angry. As you said, he stopped your cards and had someone watch you. It’s inconvenient for you to do anything now. So, at this moment, we can’t confront him head-on. We have to soften up. Go back home, wait for your brother to calm down, and then we can discuss it further.”
Reluctantly nodding at the mention of her restricted cards and movement, Bai Xinyan agreed.
Then, Mo Jinpeng suddenly knelt down, looking serious, and said to Bai Xinyan, “Xinyan, will you marry me? Although it’s a bit rushed, while I said to go back and soften up to your brother, deep down, I can’t bear to let you go. So Xinyan, would you be willing to secretly register our marriage first? I promise that in the future, when we resolve the misunderstanding with your brother, I’ll give you a grand wedding!”
Excitedly, Bai Xinyan hugged Mo Jinpeng and exclaimed, “I do, I definitely do!”
Hearing Bai Xinyan’s response, Mo Jinpeng felt relieved. Fortunately, Bai Xinyan had recently moved in with him, and this woman was enthusiastic about traveling abroad for shopping, with all her various documents in his possession.
With the documents scanned and uploaded, and Bai Xinyan’s face verified, they were able to register their marriage online quickly. Mo Jinpeng breathed a sigh of relief as he saw his name and Bai Xinyan’s name linked together on the internet. Having the legal proof, he could now legitimately intervene in Bai Haocang’s inheritance.
After completing everything, Bai Xinyan was sent back to the private hospital. Although she didn’t want to leave and wanted to stay for another night with Mo Jinpeng, Mo Jinpeng found excuses to refuse, saying it was to avoid suspicion.
When Bai Xinyan returned, the guards had already noticed her disappearance and were surprised to see her back again. Bai Xinyan simply explained that she took a walk in the building to relax, and then, following Mo Jinpeng’s advice, asked them to inform Bai Haocang of her softening stance.
Bai Haocang didn’t care whether it was true or not; now that the Mo family was under the control of Old Ma, there was nothing to worry about. He just hoped she would learn her lesson this time.
After Bai Xinyan returned home, things calmed down for a while, but Mo Jinpeng was troubled on the other side. Old Ma kept stirring up trouble, asking him for money and effort, treating him like a fool. He couldn’t reveal what he had discovered and needed to find a way to eliminate Bai Haocang.
The guide dog he had placed by his side was the perfect weapon for murder, but when he tried to contact Liang San, he found out that Liang San had been arrested.

Left with no other choice, Mo Jinpeng decided to approach Bai Xinyan. She had been behaving well lately, and the surveillance had been lax. When she saw Mo Jinpeng, she threw herself into his arms, thinking her lover missed her.

“For my brother?” Bai Xinyan was puzzled.
“Yes.” Mo Jinpeng nodded. “I thought you should also give him some gifts to improve your relationship. The intention behind the gift matters the most. Besides, the weather is getting colder, and you can tell him that you hand-knitted this scarf for him. He’ll definitely like it.”
Bai Xinyan didn’t suspect anything and happily said, “Darling, you’re so thoughtful!” as she took the box.
Later, Bai Xinyan complained about the dull life at the Bai family’s house for a while before preparing to leave with the box.
“Wait.” Before parting ways, Mo Jinpeng stopped Bai Xinyan and reminded her that it would be best to give the gift when 5 was not around because he felt the dog was dangerous.
Bai Xinyan had been frightened by Mo Yi’s bark before, which caused her to fall down the stairs, so she naturally agreed with Mo Jinpeng’s advice.
When she returned home, Bai Xinyan waited for Mo Yi and Aunt Wang to go to the kitchen to eat the freshly made dog biscuits before finding Bai Haocang and handing him the box.
“What’s this?” Bai Haocang took it with some confusion. The box wasn’t heavy, and there was no sound from inside.
“It’s a hand-knitted scarf by me. Since it’s getting cold, I specially made it for you. Brother, try it on!” Bai Xinyan opened the box and quickly wrapped the scarf around Bai Haocang’s neck.
A unique fragrance wafted from the scarf, very subtle, which most people might not notice. But Bai Haocang, with his past profession and training, immediately sensed something was wrong.
However, before he could take off the scarf, Mo Yi walked in, wagging his tail and carrying a giant bone-shaped biscuit in his mouth.
The moment Mo Yi entered the room, he caught a whiff of that distinctive scent, a smell he had encountered when he first arrived in this little world.
This scent had an inexplicable allure to him, instantly stimulating his appetite and causing him to abandon the bone-shaped biscuit in his mouth. He lunged towards the source of the fragrance.
And that source was none other than the scarf around Bai Haocang’s neck.
“Woof!” Mo Yi barked and pounced aggressively, frightening Bai Xinyan who screamed in terror.
Bai Haocang felt the weight on him and closed his eyes, bracing himself for the impending pain.
Eventually, it had come to this. He was likely going to die at the hands of 5.
But as he thought about the fact that it was 5, his Mo Yi, who would be biting his neck, Bai Haocang felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
He was worried, however, that if he died, Old Ma and the others might seek revenge on 5. Even though they were his brothers, he would not allow harm to come to 5 for hurting him.
But then, what could he do to prevent that when he was already dead?
Bai Haocang hadn’t expected that, at this point, his biggest concern would be the possibility of 5 being harmed after his death.
However, after a while, the imagined pain did not come.
He indeed felt a tug at his neck, indicating that the scarf had been pulled. Then, a damp dog nose inserted itself between the scarf and his skin, sniffing vigorously, making Bai Haocang itch.
“Yes, this scent! So familiar! It doesn’t even smell particularly good, but I just feel like eating it!”
As Mo Yi continued to sniff, he communicated with 006 in mind. Eventually, unable to resist, he licked Bai Haocang’s neck several times.
“Host, I think it’s because the training of the original owner has influenced you. After all, the body is a replica of the original owner by the system. Remember when you first arrived, you couldn’t control yourself and hunted live rabbits because of this scent.
But now, as time has passed, your body and soul have integrated well, so the influence is minimal.”
006 explained to Mo Yi, glancing at the large bone-shaped biscuit dropped on the ground, and swallowing saliva.
“I see! Woof, woof! Although the scent of that seasoning is average, my partner smells really good, woof!”
Mo Yi continued to happily sniff. It had to be said that the scent left by the scarf indeed piqued his interest in Bai Haocang’s neck. But obviously, Mo Yi’s behavior showed no signs of aggression.
Bai Haocang also realized this. He had noticed the ferocity with which his dog initially lunged at him, so he knew there was something wrong with the scarf, and it wasn’t just his imagination.
But after being licked a few times and hearing the whimpers from the dog, Bai Haocang’s mood became complex.
Raising his hand, he tentatively rubbed the dog’s head.
Sure enough, the dog behaved as usual, rubbing against his hand and licking his fingers, showing extreme intimacy and dependence.
“5, why aren’t you biting me?” Bai Haocang couldn’t help but ask.
“Woof?”
Mo Yi tilted his head in confusion. Why would he bite his companion? He was just here to sniff!
Even if you’re my companion, you can’t just falsely accuse me!
With a disgruntled “woof,” Mo Yi punished his companion by rolling over him and rubbing against him.
The fluffy big dog continued to affectionately act, prompting Bai Haocang to finally smile. Now he could be sure that 5 truly had no intention of harming him.
In a gentle tone, he coaxed the dog, extending his hand to protect the pup in his arms, preventing him from falling off.
His 5, his precious companion, had overcome instinct and chosen to be loyal to him!
Bai Haocang felt a satisfaction and happiness at this moment that no words could describe.
