Before opening the door, Uncle Mo thought a lot. After getting to know him over the past few months, Mo Chuan was lively and really looked like a child. She didn't know how he would react after Mr. Mo told him, and she didn't know how to comfort him.
.When I pushed the door open and walked in, I was not mentally prepared.
But he ran over first, "Sister."
Seeing the smile on his face, Mo Shuruo couldn't bear it, "Mo Chuan...Grandpa said you can't go back to Qing'an..."
He smiled, as if nothing was wrong, and came to comfort her, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Mo Shuruo stretched out his hand to support his shoulders, "Do you know what it means to sit on the throne of Baiyue King?"
"I know." I have never seen Mo Chuan so serious. He is far more sensible than Uncle Mo thought, "Grandpa said that some people are destined to do certain things when they are born. Whoever does it depends on the timing. Since
I came across this opportunity, so I have the responsibility to take it." He smiled heartlessly on his still round and fat face, "Don't worry, I'm really fine."
Hearing him say this, Mo Shuruo actually acted like a child, unable to look away from the situation in front of him, "You are very brave..."
Mo Chuan snorted, "You fool, don't underestimate me."
If he had said this before, Mo Shuruo would definitely have beaten him, but now, she smiled bitterly, "Yes, actually I am the one who is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. But I believe you can do it!"
He suddenly stopped smiling and stared straight at her, "Sister, the Mo family is not as easy as Baiyue. I am a boy. I will grow up one day. No one can look down on my future. On the contrary, you always let
Grandpa is worried that he should be more careful in the future..."
When such words came out of his mouth, Mo Shuruo felt a lot of emotion in his heart. She suppressed her sadness, but she couldn't cry out, so she could only nod her head, "Sister, I was born useless, but I promise you will protect the Mo family and protect the Mo family."
Grandpa, when you grow up and come back to Qing'an, my sister will hand over the Mo family to you, okay?"
Mo Chuan grinned and said disdainfully: "That's not my responsibility. I shouldn't. You have to take care of yourself."
Mo Shuruo's eyes were red and his tears turned into a smile.
Seeing him carrying her back, she suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Sister, when you have time in the future, can you come to Baiyue to see me more often?"
He couldn't help but tighten his fists, "Okay, sister, I promise you."
***
The Baiyue incident was settled in two days. The princes were shocked when the news of the deceased son came out. Baiyue Yi had no one to help him. In order to prevent his clan members from being implicated, he left a letter of apology and committed suicide in the military tent on the evening of the second day. Although
Duke Mo's move stabilized the situation and saved many people, but it also completely changed Mo Chuan's life.
Mo Chuan succeeded to the throne three days later, and the upper management tidied up the trivial matters on the battlefield. The entire Yiguan City immediately threw themselves into the next succession ceremony and was busy building the altar.
Mo Shuruo had been sitting in the room for a long time, when he suddenly saw the envelope under the book. He couldn't help it, so he opened it and read it. The letter didn't say much, except for two sentences: "
Come and find me at the Chengbei Inn in the next two days."
Looking at the letter from Yan Jue in his hand, Mo Shuruo immediately cheered up, but when he thought that the two days in the letter had already passed, he had no choice but to lie down on the bed, raised his hand to read the letter, and murmured to himself:
"It turns out that the day I met at the inn in the north of the city was not by chance, he was waiting for me." He pressed the letter to his chest and sighed with great depression, "What are you doing to me, just to say thank you? That's not the case.
It's necessary to wait for so long. At the end of the day," Mo Shuruo rolled on the bed with his eyes closed, "I have been waiting for more than two hours..."
She sat up and looked at the sky. It was almost time. She thought that even if it was not the agreed time, she couldn't help but go and take a look. By the time she figured it out, she was already halfway to the inn.
The market has returned to its original state and is bustling with excitement, and the celebration is clearly visible on the faces of passers-by. "It seems that Mo Chuan came to power and stopped the war in vain." In this way, I feel comforted.
In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the door of the inn, and Mo Shuruo looked up at the place where Yan Jue once sat, as if he was still sitting there.
"I'm sorry..." she murmured to herself, not realizing that someone was approaching behind her. "We are two people who are not meant for each other. All this is just my delusion. I have struggled with it so many times. This time, I want to let it go completely.
Already..."
"Mo Shuruo!"
She was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, so scared that she jumped up, "It's you!" Looking at Chi Tianlin behind her, she almost punched him, "Why is it you again!" We met here last time.
Finally, she almost forgot, "Why haven't you left Yiguan yet?"
He shook his head and smiled, "I sent Xiao Huan to leave Yiguan and come back."
"Didn't I ask you to find a place to settle down? What are you going to do when you come back?" Thinking of what she said before, she asked doubtfully: "Or have you figured it out and want to go back to Mo's house with me?"
He said it tactfully, "How is that possible? I'm just worried about you."
"Me?" She pointed to her nose, "What do I have to worry about? I don't have to go to the battlefield to fight."
The two of them walked forward side by side. Chi Tianlin held his arms and bumped into her from time to time. "Now that the Baiyue matter is over, what, do you want to consider my suggestion?"
When Baiyue started fighting, he, the instigator, didn't care at all. Fortunately, he was still a child, so it was normal for him to be heartless, otherwise Mo Shuruo would definitely not let him go.
Hearing him say this, she asked curiously: "What advice?"
He bent down and stretched out his face again, "Didn't I ask you to be my wife?"
Mo Shuruo stretched out his hand to push his face away and gave him a perfunctory smile, "Be good, my sister has something else to do and I can't play with you."
He grabbed Mo Shuruo who was about to run away, "Wherever you want to go, I will go too."
Mo Shuruo rolled his eyes, shook the hand that he was holding on to, "Let go."
He pouted and acted coquettishly, "If you don't tell me, I won't let you go."
Mo Shuruo sighed, "On the street, men and women do not interact with each other."
Seeing the looks from passers-by, Chi Tianlin let go and said, "Then I want to go together."
There was nothing wrong at first, but Tu Zui didn't want him to follow. The two of them had nothing to do with each other, and they weren't very familiar with each other, but they couldn't express their feelings directly, so they had to turn around and walk back to the inn, "I'm hungry.
Let's go have a meal first." He followed immediately.
All the way to the second floor, of course we went to that seat. The waiter smiled apologetically, "It's unfortunate, girl, this room has been booked a long time ago."
"Eh?" She was a little curious, "Who is it?"
The waiter motioned to a wealthy businessman in the hall downstairs. His expectations were immediately shattered. He was so disappointed that he couldn't help but smile. "Then let's switch sides."
After sitting down, Chi Tianlin asked Chi Tianlin to order. Mo Shuruo stopped the waiter and asked, "Second brother, do you remember the young man in white who was sitting in that room a few days ago?"
The waiter thought for a while, "Young lady, are you the one waiting for someone?"
Mo Shuruo nodded, "Yes."
At this mention, the waiter seemed to remember something interesting, "That young man came to the store at midnight every day, continuously until yesterday."
"Yesterday! Then why is he not here today?"
The waiter shook his head, "Maybe he knows that the person waiting will not come, so he is frustrated."
"Then do you have any other information about the young master?"
The waiter continued to shake his head, and suddenly felt strange, "Girl, you asked so carefully, are you the person that the young master is waiting for?" Looking her up and down, he didn't seem to find anything wrong, "If it's really you,
, that young master left a message for you."
Mo Shuruo stood up suddenly, "What are you talking about?"
The waiter said: "It's not a word, it's just an address, the alley street in the southeast of the city..."
Before he could finish what he said, Mo Shuruo had already disappeared. He ran for several streets and finally arrived at the largest inn in the east of the city. When he went in to inquire, the boss said that he had just checked out. Mo Shuruo rushed out and headed towards the city gate.
He chased after him. When he turned the corner, he actually saw him in the alley. Mo Shuruo ran, but held back from shouting.
He was alone, with neither Yuanyao nor Youjiang by his side. Baiyue was in chaos, so he wanted to leave Donglu and return to Tianmu Peak.
These days, he has been waiting for her to go to the appointment...
Uncle Mo thought that he was probably a little disappointed if he didn't go.
Seeing that the figure was about to walk out of the alley in the next moment, Mo Shuruo ran as fast as he could and reached out to grab him. Fortunately, he did not miss and grabbed the corner of his sleeve.
He turned around, saw it was her, and smiled, "What a coincidence, I meet you again." It seemed that he remembered what happened outside the drugstore last time.
He was holding a snow-white puppy in his right hand. The dog seemed to recognize her and kept wagging its tail and barking twice.
Mo Shuruo gasped and blurted out, "Unfortunately, I'm here to find you."
The other person obviously looked confused.
Uncle Mo said so many self-deceptive words, but he still couldn't deceive her own heart. She didn't believe that someone as smart as Yan Jue could not find out where she was or what she looked like after so many days. He didn't recognize it, just because Uncle Mo
If he doesn't want to admit it, so he doesn't take the initiative, he is waiting.
After saying goodbye today and not knowing when we would meet next, Uncle Mo felt a little aggrieved when he thought about it. He wanted to see him but couldn't, but in the end he slowly let go and uttered four words, "Long time no see."
Yan Jue was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, "It's been a long time indeed." He didn't know the meaning of this sentence, so Mo Shuruo was a little embarrassed, and then heard him say: "It turns out that you look like this.
"
Mo Shuruo's appearance cannot be said to be stunning, but his big eyes are very charming. If you look closely, they look like a clear spring, so transparent that you can see the bottom. With his confused expression, he is like a child. Anyone who sees it can't help but feel sad.
Live with love.
But in front of him, Mo Shuruo couldn't help but turned away and touched his face, "I know I was born unattractive." Compared to Yunyao's stunning face, Mo Shuruo felt ashamed and didn't want to be in this place.
Discuss more on the topic, "I'm really sorry about that day..."
We met by accident, but it was still an appointment. I was not mentally prepared to run away.
Thinking of the figure running on the street that day, he suddenly realized, "I'm very curious."
Mo Shuruo looked at him, "What are you curious about?"
He spread his hands and said, "Am I scary?"
Mo Shuruo said awkwardly: "That's not..." How could she explain this, and she couldn't explain it openly.
Yan Jue watched her words and realized that she was in trouble, so he changed the topic, "You were in a hurry that day in Feihua Valley, and I didn't have time to talk to you." He smiled softly, quickly took out the silver hairpin from her hair, and put it in front of her eyes, "
You see, I can see things clearly now."
Uncle Mo didn't know how to respond, so he reached out to take back the silver hairpin and pulled it into his hand, "That's really good. What did the city lord have to say when he asked me last time?"
Yan Jue looked at Mo Shuruo, who had no flaws, and really understood what she said, "I can't see through you...". He sighed silently, and there was not much left of the happy moment before, "Actually, it's nothing, just
But I can see now, and I happen to be in Baiyue, so I wanted to say hello to you."
He said this casually, and Mo Shuruo took it to heart and couldn't help but feel a little sad. He tightened his hand on the silver hairpin and smiled nonchalantly, "I'm just a disciple of the Mo family. I'm flattered by the fact that the city lord cares about me."
Somehow, the more the two of them chatted, the more uncomfortable they felt. Mo Shuruo was so persistent in stalking him before, but he didn't seem to regard him as a subordinate. How could he be so familiar with his words just now?
Yan Jue was hesitant to speak, but it was difficult to speak through the paper. In the past few months, he had had different feelings for Mo Shuruo. Although he had never had an affair, he was mentally normal.
People always need time to accept some emotions when they arise. But before he could figure it out, Mo Shuruo rejected him directly. Thinking about it, he felt that he was funny, and he was a little discouraged, "You know today that I
You want to leave, come and give me a ride?"
Uncle Mo was speechless, lowered his head and closed his eyes and said to himself: Maybe I shouldn't come to see him.
It took him a long time to muster up the courage to look up at him, "My uncle has little talent and little knowledge. He can't help Tianmu Peak. I'm afraid he will be useless as the head of the Mo family in the future. I shouldn't have anything to do with the city lord. Before, Yan Ya
The thing about going to jail is also out of guilt. Fortunately, God has eyes to let you see the light again. Even if we never see you again, Shuruo will burn incense every day to thank God for his kindness."
The mistakes we made when we were young have been repaid, and we owe each other nothing. Seeing each other again in the future will only be a nod of acquaintance, and there is no deep friendship.
"I'm going to say goodbye. I hope the city lord will take more care of you."
Don't say it anymore.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Yan Jue's gentle expression turned slightly sad.
"What are you..."
Mo Shuruo lowered his head and did not respond.
But he suddenly smiled, and his laughter was full of desolation, "I thought that when I first met Baiyue and you regarded me as a friend, I would rush to Yanya Prison to stop me regardless of the danger. It turns out that it was just me being sentimental..." He
Turning his back, Mo Shuruo dared to secretly look up at him.
"That's all..." It took a long time after the two words came out, and he sighed, "Every time we part ways it seems that it's not a happy time..."
Yanjue didn't say anything else. Just like Baiyue's parting time, he had been gone for a long time, and she was still standing there, motionless, but her tears kept falling.
