1875 Lovey-Dovey Sweetness...
He felt like a disaster would occur if this continued. If the emperor and the young couple's relationship had already become so strained even before meeting face to face, what would happen to him once they did?
Wahhh…
There was nothing he could do to save the situation. He was afraid that the seed of hatred had already been planted in the little lady's heart.
*Trudge, trudge, trudge.* The group filed through the second floor hallway.
They finally entered their respective rooms, and the noisy hallway finally turned quiet.
The other guests who had been disturbed awake were no longer sleepy, but they just kept their doors shut, afraid to watch the messy drama.
In the first room on the left on the second floor, Jiang Qi heaved a sigh of relief and walked to the table. She informed her other martial sisters, "It's over now."
Senior Sister Yu Gui said with a nod, "Everyone be careful. It is unsuitable to cause trouble when away from home. Go sleep for four more hours, and we'll immediately depart at dawn."
"Yes," everybody responded quietly. Yet they didn't return to their rooms and just found a place to lie down while fully clothed.
How was it possible for them to not hear the loud commotion oustide? However, it was unsuitable for them to go outside with so many experts standing off with such parade.
Now that things had finally settled down, they just wanted to rest and hurry to Mount Tai as soon as possible.
Yet they were unaware of what they had missed…
On the other side.
Mo Lian kissed the little fellow in his arms as soon as he kicked the door shut.
Miss Qiao had also missed Mo Lian very much, and she fidgeted while hugging him.
What should she do? She missed him when she couldn't see him, but now that she did, it felt so unreal.
She was getting swayed by this worry of loss and gain…
Why was this?
Crown Prince Mo discovered that his wifey was daydreaming, so he cupped her cheeks and nuzzled her icy little nose. "Qiaoqiao, what are you thinking about."
"Thinking about you." Qiao Mu answered honestly as she silently straightened out this peculiar emotion in her heart.
Mo Lian was surprised, but he quickly revealed an unrestrained smile. He cupped her petite face and gave her a loud smack on the lips. "Good!"
He caressed her petite face and led her to the table. He then set her on his knees and snuggled his head against her slender neck before saying softly, "Darling, you must not have missed me as much as I missed you. You were even there in the illusions to clear in the Punishment Tower!"
"You saw me inside the Punishment Tower?" Qiao Mu was surprised.
"What was I doing?" The little fellow turned to ask him curiously, "Did I battle you? Was I able to defeat you?"
You can only think of battle and defeating me? Crown Prince Mo rubbed her petite head both amused and exasperated. He deadpanned, "No."
"You didn't battle with me. You were so busy!" Mo Lian looked at her seriously. He couldn't help but hold in his laughter when he saw her so curious, and he kissed her tender cheek. "You were moving gold bars! With such gusto!"
Qiao Mu turned around at once to direct the back of her head toward a certain person as she also deadpanned, "You saw wrong."
Crown Prince Mo burst out in laughter, and Qiao Mu quickly turned her head around again. Her eyes shone as she admired the crown prince's handsome face in the candlelight.
This person looked so dashing!
Crown Prince Mo's phoenix eyes curved as he lifted her up. "How about we bathe together?"
*Dong!*
After giving him a whack on the head, Qiao Mu hopped down and waved her hand without looking back. "Wait!"
