2098 Like a Treasure
That whistling sound blew for a total of eight times.
Madam née Feng knew that she could not delay any longer, so she quickly turned around to leave with her group of Passionless Palace disciples.

*Boom!*
A clap of thunder outside startled Qiao Mu awake, and she slowly opened her eyes in the dark.
She turned her head and saw the downpour outside the window, accompanied by lightning and thunder. A blinding flash would intermittently light up the black night.
The little fellow turned her face back and lay on the sleeping Crown Prince Mo. She pressed her lips together and stared at him in a trance.
How could there be such a perfect person born so handsome?
How fortunate was she to meet such a person in this lifetime?
If she had let him slip by back when she was seven…
Qiao Mu's heart clenched, simply fearing to imagine such a possibility!
Losing this person would be like losing her destination and hope.
Qiao Mu lightly traced his picturesque features with her finger. She touched his cheek, his hair, and at last stopped at his thin lips that were pressed into a line.
"Sigh…" An indistinct sigh came from his mouth.
His originally shut phoenix eyes also gradually opened in the dark night.
Qiao Mu guiltily pulled back her hand and flopped onto his chest. She then yanked the blanket over her head and pretended to be asleep…
"My wife, you've fondled me for almost an hour and even woke me up. Are you planning to explore the other parts of Hubby's body?"
The guilty Qiao Mu felt that her entire face, even the tips of her ears, was burning hot.
It was her fault!
It was her fault for not sleeping in the middle of the night and touching him for no reason!
Qiao Mu suddenly popped her head out from the blanket with round eyes and muttered, "If, if! If you can't bear, bear it, you, you don-don't need to hold back anymore!"
Mo Lian was startled, and he couldn't help smiling.
His heart had gotten so disturbed by this little fellow's antics that it was impossible for him to sleep.
Therefore, he sat up while holding her. He waved his hand, and a dim flame lit up two candles inside the room.
"Y-You, you! Wh-What are you light-lighting candles for?" Qiao Mu really wanted to slap her mouth!
Why was she stuttering!?
Mo Lian looked down at her teasingly and said with a low chuckle, "That's naturally to look carefully at my wife."
"You, you're not allowed to look!" Qiao Mu felt that her face was probably boiling by now, possibly even able to cook an egg!
She blocked his eyes with her hands, and then her eyes then wandered to the candles. "Ex… Extinguish the lights!"
"No can do! If I do that how can I look at my wife." Mo Lian smothered a laugh and grasped her paws, pulling them to his lips and kissing them.
"Qiaoqiao, do you know how much I like you?" He caressed her petite face inch by inch with his slender fingers as he looked straight at her.
"I want to personally give you all the most precious and beautiful things in this world."
"I want you to become the happiest girl in the world."
"My Qiaoqiao deserves the best."
"My Qiaoqiao deserves me to treat her wholeheartedly and with my all."
"My Qiaoqiao."
"My Qiaoqiao…"
"You are this good."
So good that he couldn't bear for her to suffer the slightest grievance. He did not wish for her to become his so casually in such a rundown place…
"Why are you so good to me?" Qiao Mu's eyes turned red.
