Mo Jianchen was caught off guard by her hand and was shocked. Now that they were no longer children, it would be inappropriate to make such an intimate gesture in front of their elders.
But she was drunk and he was afraid of hurting him, so he didn't move. He just let her hold his hand. Her slender hand firmly grasped his broad palm.
However, Xiahou Muqing didn't feel anything was wrong. He just regarded the two of them as having a good friendship when they were still presidents. Looking at the hands they were holding, he just smiled softly: "Her."
, It’s really the same as when I was a kid, it hasn’t changed at all, I’m still so dependent on you now that I’ve grown up.”
Mo Jianchen didn't let go of the hand he was holding, but he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so he just lowered his head and smiled coquettishly.
At this moment, He Lingfeng had just brought a basin of hot water and walked into the hall. He happened to see Du Zhiqing holding Mo Jianchen's hand. His heart couldn't help but tremble violently. Suddenly, his face changed and his steps changed.
He stopped, and his whole body froze in place.
Xiahou Muqing focused his attention on Du Zhiqing and did not notice the strange look on his face. When he saw that he had not come forward after entering the door, he just said to him: "What are you doing standing there? Come here quickly."
ah!"
"Oh...oh." He Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, then after listening to Xiahou Muqing's words, he walked forward and put the hot water on the table.
It can be seen that Du Zhiqing is holding Mo Jianchen's hand tightly, and Mo Jianchen has no intention of letting go. This scene is as dazzling as a thorn in his eyes. But it's hard to say anything about his identity, so
I can only glance at it and not look at it.
After Du Zhiqing held Mo Jianchen's hand, she closed her eyes and stopped fussing. Her breathing gradually became evener, her cheeks were still rosy, and there was a slight smile at the corner of her mouth.
Entered dreamland.
Xiahou Muqing said in a low voice: "This girl is already asleep, shush, keep your voice down, don't wake her up, let her sleep."
Mo Jianchen nodded and asked: "Aunt Aqing, is there anything else that Jianchen can help you with?"
Xiahou Muqing shook his head and said: "No, I'll just take care of her. It's getting late, so you should go back quickly!"
Mo Jianchen glanced at Du Zhiqing's peaceful sleeping face, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and agreed: "Well, that's okay. I'll go back first, Aunt Aqing, and I'll come back another day."
He carefully pulled his hand out of Du Zhiqing's hand, for fear of waking her up.
After he pulled his hand away, Du Zhiqing's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he muttered again: "Brother Chen." Then he continued to sleep.
"Zhi Qing!" Hearing her calling him, Mo Jianchen couldn't help but feel nervous and quickly turned around.
But she continued to sleep without any other reaction.
Xiahou Muqing turned around, shook his head gently at him, and said: "It's okay, don't worry, she has fallen asleep. He has troubled you today, so you should go back and get some rest early!"
"Okay." Mo Jianchen nodded and said, "Then I'm leaving, Aunt Aqing."
After saying that, he stood up and wanted to leave the hall, but before leaving, he still had some thoughts in his heart, so he looked back at Du Zhiqing, and then stepped out of the hall.
This scene was caught by He Lingfeng, and a hint of unhappiness flashed in his eyes, which quickly disappeared, but he could not help but clenched his fist.
After Mo Jianchen left, He Lingfeng asked Xiahou Muqing: "Senior wife, what did senior sister do today, and how did she get so drunk?"
Xiahou Muqing wiped Du Zhiqing's cheeks with a wet towel and hot water, and said: "I don't know why she is so excited today. She went to Xiufeng Mountain with Jian Chen to drink the wine brewed by her grandfather. This child, Ming
Even though I know I can't drink, I still drink such a strong drink."
"Fortunately, I went with Jian Chen. If I met someone else, I wouldn't be worried. This girl's family is drinking outside like this. What if something unexpected happens? This kid has always been like this
It’s confusing and not at all reassuring.”
"Sister, did you go with him again?" Hearing the name Mo Jianchen, He Lingfeng couldn't help but frown, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
But Xiahou Muqing said with some relief: "I thought she would always hate Jian Chen. This girl's thoughts are really hard to figure out. She said before that she wanted to die with Jian Chen.
We kept seeing each other, but I didn’t expect that we would reconcile so quickly.”
"That's fine. Jianchen is a down-to-earth child. Knowing Qing's confused temperament, I can rest assured that Jianchen will be by my side to protect him from now on."
"Senior Wife, how come you can trust him so much?" He Lingfeng also felt dissatisfied and frowned: "Senior Brother Mo has only been in Muzhou City for a few days, who knows what he is thinking, what if he does something wrong with Senior Sister?
What should I do with my thoughts?”
"When senior sister first met him a few days ago, he was scornful of senior sister. Now that they have reconciled, he took senior sister to have fun again. Yesterday they went out to Luanxiang Pavilion together and came back very late. Today he is again
I made my senior sister so drunk, how could you allow my senior sister to stay with such a person?"
Xiahou Muqing shook his head and did not listen to He Lingfeng's words. He just said softly: "Lingfeng, you are not the disciple of Luanxiang Pavilion before. You may not know what happened before. The two children Zhiqing and Jianchen
They grew up together, and the two of them have been very good friends since childhood."
"I have known Jianchen since he was a child. Like his father, he may be a bit cynical in nature, but his nature is down-to-earth and serious. He is not what you think."
"He has been taking care of Zhiqing since he was a child. He can do everything in a flawless manner. With him accompanying Zhiqing, I am absolutely at ease."
"I also know that Zhiqing is a child who has always been so confused. It must have been her idea to get so drunk today. Fortunately, Jianchen is by her side, otherwise she would not be able to control herself even more.
"
"I still don't think it's appropriate." He Lingfeng frowned and shook his head, unwilling to give in: "Senior Sister and Senior Brother Mo are so lonely together, and just now...Senior Wife, you clearly saw it."
"Senior Brother Mo has been holding Senior Sister's hand and refused to let go. Senior Sister, how can you let him be so frivolous towards Senior Sister without stopping him? He dares to do this in front of you. I really don't know what he will do when you are not around.
do what?"
"Ling Feng, this is because you are overthinking." Xiahou Muqing still didn't care much, just shook his head and smiled softly, "The two of them just have the friendship from childhood, Zhi Qing
It's nothing to rely on Jian Chen since he was a child, let alone Zhi Qing who held him back first."
"Children of Jianghu never care about so many rules. You don't have to worry about this. This kid Jianchen has a sense of proportion. I know it."
Hearing what Xiahou Muqing said, He Lingfeng had no choice but to shut his mouth and didn't say any more.
But thinking of the scene just now and the words of his mistress, he couldn't help but feel sourness in his heart.
Who is that Mo Jianchen? He had offended his senior sister before, and now he is approaching her again. Who knows what he is thinking. He has only been back for a few days, so why do his senior sister and his wife think so highly of him?
Obviously the person who has been by Senior Sister's side the longest is me, but why is Senior Sister so dependent on him? She holds on to his hand and keeps mumbling his name. She has been by Senior Sister's side for ten years.
,Senior sister, has ever done this to me?
The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became, but even if he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
The master's wife thinks highly of him, and if he continues to talk, he will only offend the master's wife.
Senior Sister likes to be with him, how can I stop Senior Sister? I am only the adopted son of Master and Master, and there are some things that I cannot participate in.
Xiahou Muqing noticed a trace of displeasure on He Lingfeng's face, and asked him with concern: "Lingfeng, what's wrong with you? Why do I look at you as if you have something on your mind?"
He Lingfeng just shook his head and lowered his eyes: "I'm fine, I'm just worried about senior sister. I'm afraid that it will be bad for senior sister and senior brother Mo to be together..."
"There is nothing to worry about." Xiahou Muqing said softly: "I know that you are a careful child and have always been cautious about Zhiqing. But you don't have to worry about this. Jianchen is the child we watched grow up, Zhiqing.
You won't have any problems staying with him."
The more he listened to Xiahou Muqing praising Mo Jianchen, the more sour and sad he felt in his heart, "Master's wife."
He raised his head and asked Xiahou Muqing with a bit of frustration on his face: "You recognize Senior Brother Mo, and Senior Sister also recognizes him, but most of the people who usually accompany Senior Sister are disciples."
"Then do you feel more at ease when Senior Sister is with your apprentice, or when you are with Senior Brother Mo?"
Xiahou Muqing just said: "You can't ask this, there is nothing more reassuring. You are the apprentice adopted by the master and his wife. We all know your character, and we also trust you and Zhiqing.
Together."
"Jianchen is the child we have watched since childhood. Although he is a bit arrogant at this age, he is also a reliable person. I feel relieved to have Zhiqing play with him."
"No matter which one of you two stays with her, Master Wife will feel at ease. You two are both good children, but you can't compare."
He Lingfeng lowered his head, with a bit of disappointment in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "But Senior Brother Mo has been away from Senior Sister for ten years, and he is no longer young now."
"In the past ten years, the person who spent the longest time with Senior Sister was my disciple. But as soon as Senior Brother Mo came back, Senior Wife and Senior Sister turned all their attention to him..."
