2333 Bloodline
While watching the drama unfold, Darling Qiao had bit a piece of meat and nearly forgot to swallow.
Mo Lian could not help but chuckle when he saw her like this. He rubbed her petite face and reminded her, "Eat."
Qiao Mu swallowed her food and watched the lively scene on the other side.
*Smack!* That Young Master Chen did not even bat an eyelid as he directly flicked his sleeve and swept away the approaching Xiao He.
He allowed her to crash on her back next to the burned meat.
This Young Master Chen had treated her completely like trash, not even sparing her a glance.
Young Lady Rouyi walked over and slapped her without reservation. "You wicked servant, what are you thinking? You think that you're a celestial turned into a mortal? Would my eldest brother fancy trash like you?"
You've seriously got to be joking. So many daughters of bigwigs in the capital were chasing after her brother, yet he didn't favor any one of them!
Let alone this shrew from a rural village.
Where did she get the confidence that someone as lofty and noble as her brother would fall for a dumb woman like her?
"Your baseness shows on your face. Why did I rescue you! Eldest Brother is the discerning one! No wonder he disagreed with me taking you in at first sight! You're seeking death with your antics!" Young Lady Rouyi felt that this maidservant she had just taken in had embarrassed her immensely. She kicked Xiao He without any hesitation and sent her rolling. "You can scram now!
"Our Mu Clan does not need such a wicked servant with ulterior motives like you!"
Qiao Mu, who had been watching the drama, was stunned: The Mu Clan?
As she stealthily sized up this brother and sister duo, she just so happened to see that young sir look toward her with a profound gaze.
His gaze was so infectious and abysmal, and his eyes were like a vast expanse of misty, rolling waters. A single glance made Qiao Mu's heart skip a beat.
A peculiar feeling rose in her heart.
That feeling was abnormally strange, just like when she discovered Long Chuyun in the secret realm in the mountains.
A hint of suspicion surfaced in her mind.
In the past, she did not know the reason why.
Now though, she was absolutely certain that this was the resonance between those of the same bloodline.
As she was sizing up Mu Xingchen, Mu Xingchen was also focused on sizing up her. When his profound and pitch-black eyes gazed at Qiao Mu, he could feel the blood flowing through his veins clamoring in an agitated mood!
Mo Lian naturally also noticed the little fellow having a long staring contest with another man.
Even though he did not understand, he still turned the little fellow's head back protectively. "What's wrong?"
Qiao Mu blinked and picked up a piece of water deer meat. She ripped off a piece and chewed on it. "I don't know. There's definitely nothing good seeing people from the Mu Clan."
Mo Lian knew the emotional entanglement she had with the Mu Clan. He couldn't help laughing and glanced over in Mu Xingchen's direction. "Never mind them. Let's set up camp after eating."
They had originally planned to hurry to the next lodging point. However, Qiao Mu had suddenly called for them to stop, so they got down and collected the minerals here.
Mo Lian and Qiao Mu had discussed setting up camp here for the night and continuing on their way the next morning.
The environment here was quite pleasant here anyway, and they weren't in a hurry to get to their next stop.
Zou Huan and them naturally had no objections. As a group of coarse men, they could eat and sleep wherever they went. They weren't particular about these things!
