1425 Congratulatory Gift
Qiao Mu looked speechlessly at Crown Prince Mo, who was galloping over madly on his horse.
Just as he was about to reach her, that guy flew up and landed beside her with a swish. He then cried out pitifully, "Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, it's terrible. Your hubby had almost gotten taken advantage of by a scoundrelly female hooligan. Quickly comfort your hubby's almost injured body and mind."
Qiao Mu: …
It wasn't good. Ever since they got married, this guy's sense of shame was going downhill, and she was unable to reverse the trend no matter what!
Even so, Qiao Mu subconsciously hugged his waist and patted his back with her petite hand. "What female hooligan."
Mo Lian then quickly made a clean breast of what had just happened from beginning to end to his wife. Afterwards, he asked his wife, "Qiaoqiao, aren't I smart! Say, is this Mo Lu dumb or what. Where does he get the confidence that this kind of shabby move will be able to trick me?"
Darling Qiao was a bit furious. "Didn't the king punish this Mo Lu by taking away his monthly stipend and grounding him for three months? How is he able to come out now?"
"You understand the old man. Grounding and whatnot is simply impossible. It's already good that he doesn't wantonly change his orders." Mo Lian pinched her petite face in amusement upon seeing her solemn expression. "Don't worry, your hubby has always been prudent and will absolutely not get whisked away by a female hooligan!"
Qiao Mu frowned. "Where are those two people."
"I sent people to throw them back to the second prince's estate. It's impossible for me to keep them over for a meal!"
"The reports say that Second Royal Brother was so angry that he fainted."
"Serves him right." An iciness flitted across Qiao Mu's eyes. "He got let off too lightly."
"Of course I can't just let him off like this. Since this fellow is so active, I'll find him something to do."
"Yo, as expected, you've forgotten your brothers after getting yourself a wife! Baili, look, I was right on the money. I said that this fellow was definitely coming to see the little stoic when he just ran off and cast us away."
"Mhm." Baili Xi nodded expressionlessly.
The two people hadn't seen the little lady for some time, and they couldn't resist marvelling at her upon seeing her today.
She was a young icy beauty with a face like the bright moon and eyes like chilly stars.
After her facial features matured, this little stoic really made people unable to look away.
"What are you looking at." Mo Lian pettily scooped his wifey into his arms. "Qiaoqiao, don't pay them any attention! We're going home."
Qiao Mu gave an ambivalent nod. Her eyes merely ran her eyes over Wei Nanfeng and Baili Xi before she retracted her gaze.
"You're too heartless!" Wei Nanfeng wailed.
Ignoring him, Qiao Mu merely looked back at Baili Xi and said with a nod, "Thank you for the ebony tablets you sent over."
"It was nothing." Baili Xi nodded with a tepid expression.
"This is for you." The little stoic waved her hand casually, and a brocade pouch landed in Baili Xi's hands.
"I see that you are about to break through to become a level-13 mystic cultivator. There are two level-13 mystic breakthrough pills inside the porcelain bottle. They can probably help you break through successfully."
Although the little stoic was not making much of an expression, her words triggered a thousand waves.
Baili Xi and Wei Nanfeng were both flabbergasted.
Especially our dear Wei Nanfeng who was posing as the peanut gallery. He had originally been fanning him tastefully with his folding fan.
Yet he got so freaked out by Qiao Mu's words that he dropped his fan, and he was thunderstruck, with a gust of wind blowing over his head.
"Princess Mi said that you two are about to get married, so consider this as my early wedding gift to you."
