3092 Beat Him Up…
Qiao Mu glanced at her with a hint of helplessness. “Mu Xingchen’s nature isn’t bad.”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have forgiven him back then.
However, this child had been focused on cultivating and drawing talismans since a young age, seldom interacting with many people. Understanding the complexities of the human heart wasn’t as innate for him as it was for Qiao Mu, who had lived in two worlds.
Having accepted him as her Big Bro, Qiao Mu was willing to tolerate his minor flaws.
“Consider his perspective. Mu Rouxuan grew up with him. Even if they aren’t close, she’s still his Li’l Sis. Letting go might not be easy for him.”
Qi Xuanxuan pursed her lips, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
“Alright, finish eating and get ready for bed. We’ll set off tomorrow,” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao said, giving her a friendly pat on the shoulder. She smiled and added, “We’ll make a fortune once we enter the secret realm!”
Qi Xuanxuan was momentarily surprised before bursting into laughter. As she watched Qiao Mu dash out of her yurt like a wisp of smoke, all the resentment in her heart seemed to dissipate.
That was Qi Xuanxuan’s personality—scolding when necessary, then forgetting about it and falling asleep. Tomorrow, upon waking up, she wouldn’t recall a thing.
As Qi Xuanxuan was about to start her standard cleansing routine, she hesitated. Did Qiao just smile at her a moment ago?
When Qiao Mu returned to her yurt, she noticed only a small, dimly lit lamp inside. Mo Lian was reclining on a soft couch, engrossed in a book. He shifted his gaze to her as she entered.
Qiao Mu hurriedly approached and patted his hand twice. “I’ll go wash up first. Wait for me.”
These words…
For some reason, the Crown Prince felt a little adrift, his thoughts wandering off course.
Once the little one had finished showering and returned, she nestled under the covers with a delightful fragrance. Mo Lian smiled, extending his arms to embrace her. “Do you have anything to share with me?”
“I’m so sleepy.” She raised her hand and yawned, snuggling into his arms. Softly, she spoke, “I comforted Xuanxuan just now. My saliva is almost dry.”
“Don’t keep poisoning me.”
Mo Lian smiled, reaching out to towel dry her slightly damp, long hair. Looking down at her, he said, “Let’s refrain from meddling in others’ affairs in the future.”
“Not everyone knows how to repay kindness.”
“There are many ungrateful people, especially those with inherently bad attitudes. Regardless of our actions, we can’t change their minds.”
“Most of the time, it’s okay to refuse.”
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao stretched and yawned. She glanced at him from the corner of her eye. “You’re so talkative. Time to sleep.”
“Why are you going to sleep? Talk to me a bit more.”
“I’m so sleepy.” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao snuggled into his arms and reached out to encircle his waist. Suddenly, she pulled back her hand, looking up at him. “Eh? You’ve lost weight.”
The waist seemed narrower…
It appeared that Qiaoqiao’s darling lotus had shed some weight due to her recent busyness! She resolved to feed him more delicious food the next day and plump him up again.
“Qiaoqiao, you keep touching me secretly!” Crown Prince Mo blinked with a grin. “You even secretly measured my dimensions!”
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao gave him a deadpan look, then covered his head with the comforter and playfully struck him under the blanket.
Little brat, I know exactly what you’re saying. Bah!
