Mo Ran changed his clothes and went out. He looked down from the stairs. Li Huo disappeared. Zhang Ke sat on a chair with a Rubik's cube in his hand. Liu Yang was not there. Could it be that he was holding a bamboo slip and studying.

"Would you like lunch? I'll let the guy come here?" When he heard someone going downstairs, Mo Fei looked up and asked in a normal tone.

Mo Ran shook his head, "No need, I'm going to find Jiang Chao, he won't lose my food."

Could it be that nodded, "Then you go, go early and come back soon."

Mo Ran responded, and when he walked out the door, he didn't see Zhang Ke raising his head, nor did he hear him speak, nor did Liu Yang tell her not to stay at night, which is very good... it was obviously what she wanted.

Could it be that you are right? You want to hold on and stay away from it. No one can do this, so even if you feel uncomfortable, you have to cut the mess quickly, right?

Mo Ran took out the purple hairband he bought from his pocket at a roadside stall yesterday. This one was originally intended to be given to Liu Yang, but now it is impossible to think about it. After tying her hair, Mo Ran tied it to his head.

Jiang Chao was not there when she arrived at the National Master's Mansion, but he probably had ordered it long ago. The guards at the door immediately let it go when they saw her. Mo Ran went straight to the attic by the lake. There were also many book slips on the attic. Mo Ran was looking at Jiang Chao while waiting for Jiang Chao.

Soon, Jiang Chao came back, and the general rushed up first. Look at his spirit, it passed much better than her last night, and then Jiang Chao slowly went upstairs.

"You brought the general into the palace?" Mo Ran asked.

"Yes." Jiang Chao nodded.

Mo Ran couldn't help but touch the general's head and said, "I have to sneak into the palace. You're fine, I've been swaying back and forth."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chao smiled, and Mo Ran said, "The emperor is so nice to you. He is not surprised that I, a person with unknown origin? Also, I broke into the palace at night that day, how did he check in the end?"

Jiang Chao said: "I said you are my old friend, how could he doubt it? Even if he doubted it, he couldn't find anything, it didn't matter... As for what happened that night, I'm still investigating it, but since it was you who did it, it would definitely end up in vain."

"Tsk tsk, you can figure out anything."

After Jiang Chao sat down, not long after, the servants brought a bunch of notes. Soon after, lunch was prepared. Jiang Chao looked at Mo Ran, "Why did you change your clothes today?"

"When did I not dress like this?" Mo Ran replied subconsciously. She was wearing clothes she often wore, light and comfortable.

Jiang Chao said, "Yesterday."

“Yesterday was different.”

"What's the difference? Could it be that you went to Fire Day yesterday?"

Mo Ran paused. Yesterday it was because Liu Yang and Zhang Ke wanted her to go out for a walk. Maybe she was just asking her to change her clothes. "It doesn't count. Why, I can't dress up occasionally?"

Jiang Chao smiled and stopped talking.

After lunch, Mo Ran found a book to read, and Jiang Chao reviewed some memorials. The full general lay on a shaded ground, waving his tail comfortably.

Although Jiang Chao was reading the memorial, he would pay attention to what Mo Ran was doing from time to time. After a long time, Jiang Chao put down a memorial and said, "Are you here specifically to me in a daze?"

Mo Ran's eyes were straight, and his mind had long been gone. Hearing this, he didn't move, and he said "yes".

Jiang Chao ignored her and continued to read his memorials. In the afternoon, he spent Jiang Chao's work and Mo Ran's daze. The sun was west, and the setting sun shone into the attic. Jiang Chao put down the last memorial and poured himself a cup of tea, "Tell me, what's wrong with you?"

Mo Ran seemed to be immersed in daze and said with a slow reaction of half a beat: "Nothing is wrong? What can I do? I'm so good."

Jiang Chao couldn't help but sneer, "Your thoughts are written on your face, is that okay?"

Mo Ran said, "Since it's written on your face, just read it yourself."

Jiang Chao took a sip of tea and suddenly said, "Are you trapped by love?"

Mo Ran's straight eyes flashed suddenly and looked at Jiang Chao in surprise: "How is that possible?"

Jiang Chao met Mo Ran's gaze and paused slightly with his hand holding the cup, "It seems that's it."

How complicated can a girl’s thoughts be? What’s more, Mo Ran, she is not a sentimental person. No matter how big the matter is, she can forget it in a blink of an eye. Even if it is necessary to face it, just like the bottomless pit of the Mo family, she chose to be on the head and would not be dazed to think about what to do...

"No! I'm not trapped by love! But I'm really thinking about what love is." Mo Ran denied. She suddenly seemed to think of something and blurted out Jiang Chao, "Tell me, you are the number one beauty in the world. I still remember the grand occasion of throwing fruits and carts. Didn't the daughter of Dulong Castle and the palace lord of the southern country all seek death for you? Why didn't you like any one?"

Jiang Chao looked at Mo Ran, "What's the reason? Do I have to like one?"

Mo Ran nodded, "Yes, I think so too, I have to choose one... But the point is not this, the point is... why do they like you?"

"Haha..." Jiang Chao immediately smiled, and it seemed as if he had heard a funny joke, just laughing, and never answering Mo Ran's words.

Mo Ran frowned, "Is the question I asked funny?"

"Of course, they like me, how do I know why? You should ask them." Jiang Chao finally stopped laughing and said.

Of course, Mo Ran couldn't ask those people, "Then I'll change my question. Have you ever liked someone?"

Jiang Chao moved slowly and turned the teacup, looking at Mo Ran with a pair of peach blossom eyes, "You just say, is it who do you like or who likes you?"

"Can't I be curious?" Mo Ran said.

Jiang Chao only looked at Mo Ran, his eyes were too transparent. Mo Ran couldn't even avoid it, but he heard Jiang Chao say, "This kind of thing is not something you will be curious about at any time unless you encounter it."

Mo Ran lay down on the table in a dismay, "So what, why do anyone like me? I admit that I am excellent, and I also admit that I am beautiful. Of course, I am very understanding. A person as perfect as me may not have this store after passing through this village, but..."

"Do you want me to spit out all the lunch?" Jiang Chao interrupted Mo Ran unbearably, "Like you say that, wouldn't all men in the world have to line up to like you?"

Mo Ran looked at Jiang Chao, "What are you anxious about? I haven't finished talking yet? But isn't it the same for being friends? We can still live a happy life without being separated for the rest of our lives."

Mo Ran said, but when Jiang Chao's eyes became more and more wrong, his peach blossom eyes were full of contempt. Mo Ran couldn't help but point at him and said, "Where did I say the wrong thing?"

Jiang Chao said, "Do you think liking is a noble thing? Then why don't your father and your three mothers be friends but want to become husband and wife? And your father died of death because of this. General Zheng was suffering and died. Your third wife was sentenced to northern Xinjiang, and only your second mother was a little lucky, but she was also suffering from torture at the beginning. Do you think that's why?"

Mo Ran frowned, "Why are you talking about my parents?"

Jiang Chao said: "Didn't you ask me?"

Mo Ran was silent, and after a while, he said, "Dad and three mothers are exceptions. Are there so many couples in the world who are ordinary?"

Jiang Chao said, "Then you can find an ordinary man to marry, have a child, and live a simple life. Those who like you will naturally find another girl worthy of his enthusiasm, and they will have a passionate love."

He paused, opened the folding fan and slapped it gently, looking out the window, as if he wanted to end the topic.

But Mo Ran was stunned by what he said, as if this was true, but why did he feel so uncomfortable? He seemed unwilling to accept it?

After a while, Mo Ran said: "How do you refuse so many people who like you?"

"If I don't like it, I don't like it. My eyes, language, and actions will convey my emotions. Who can force me to do it?" Jiang Chao said slowly.

"Is this what..." Mo Ran said, and after a while, he muttered to himself, "You are still different from me..."

Jiang Chao is very smart and cunning. He has a high reputation in the world and has a good relationship with everyone, but he is a little bit cold. He is very interested in many things and has never had any restrictions on the occasions he enters and leaves. He has contact with all kinds of religions and all kinds of people, and he feels like he can do whatever he wants. So Mo Ran always feels that Jiang Chao is almost becoming an immortal.

Mo Ran had always been worried about him before. He was so carefree, but if he could break through the world one day, wouldn’t she be very bored? So far, Jiang Chao hasn’t taken that step yet.

Maybe Mo Ran is different from the Jiangchao. If the Jiangchao is water, Mo Ran must be fire. She is not stingy with her passion when interacting with others. Correspondingly, she cannot really cut off the mess when dealing with emotional issues.

So while she made up her mind to let Liu Yang and Zhang Ke give up, she didn't give up and wanted to figure out a way to achieve both ways.

"Jiang Chao, show me the sword dance." Mo Ran suddenly said, and if she couldn't figure it out, she slowly thought about it. She didn't believe it was a dead end!

"No time." Jiang Chao only waved his fan. Although he had finished his official duties, he still refused.

Mo Ran looked at him, "Stingy, then I'll dance to you. Do you always have time to watch it?"

Jiang Chao said: "That depends on whether it is worth watching."

Mo Ran had already stood up from her seat, and she smiled mysteriously, "It must be worth it!"

Mo Ran jumped directly from the corridor and landed steadily on the open space downstairs. She sacred a long sword and looked up at Jiang Chao: "You have to look carefully!"

The setting sun is like fire, lotus leaves are connected to the sky, Mo Ran holds the sword by the lake, swings the movements, the sword intent is free and unrestrained, the falling flowers are rolled up by the sword energy, and they are fluttering, Mo Ran sways with his hair, and his figure is as quick as a rainbow...

Jiang Chao slowly stopped as he shook his fan. The fan fell on his knees, and the four big words "Not about the wind and moon" were written in cursive. The peach blossom eyes blinked gently, and a tear mole was embedded at the end of his eyes. When he lowered his eyes, for some reason, there was a hint of melancholy.

After a long time, when Mo Ran took his sword and stood up, the falling flowers were shattered by the sword energy. The comfort just now disappeared, full of solemnity.

Mo Ran looked up and smiled at Jiang Chaochao: "I have trained your listening sword! Is it worth seeing?"

Jiang Chao looked at the person who was smiling downstairs and laughed, "It's worth it."

Mo Ran turned around and flew upstairs, and she said, "When I was teaching my mind, did you think I couldn't practice it? How about it, do you regret it now?"

Jiang Chao said, "When did I do something I regret?"

"I have learned your skills from you. I am afraid that you will feel unbalanced because my talent is too high. Dad has said that since he was a child." Mo Ran said unworthily.

Jiang Chao said with a funny look: "Then should I be jealous of you?"

"No, you should praise me so that I feel a little accomplished." Mo Ran smiled.

Jiang Chao clapped his palms with a fan, as if he was really thinking seriously, "Let's do this, since you have learned to listen to Chao Jian, as a thank you gift, just dance to me frequently."

Mo Ran raised his eyebrows, "Did you treat me as fun?"

Jiang Chao shook his head seriously, "That's not, but I haven't seen this Chao Sword for a long time. It's good to be able to watch it often."

Mo Ran looked at Jiang Chao in surprise, but found that he seemed to be not joking. He was surprised, "No? Listen to Chao Jian is your sword technique! You tell me you can't do it anymore?"

Jiang Chao smiled at her fuss, "What's so strange about this? After practicing, I didn't spend any effort on listening to Chao Sword. I was unfamiliar, and then forgot."

Mo Ran still looked at Jiang Chao without much belief, but Jiang Chao let her see, her face still remained calm.

After a while, Mo Ran seemed to be sure that Jiang Chao was not joking with her, and said, "Okay, just a sword dance, a small matter, but... isn't this a pity?"
