Qi Qingyao was focusing on watching the performance, the children were focused on eating the confectioneries, Si Jin was distracted with eating the puffed rice candy, while Lu Yan was busy stroking the cat. In the midst of this, none of them were aware that…
Xiao Wuji and Gu Cheng’s gaze were fixed on their direction, especially on the three children. They stared for a long time until Xiaobao ate so much he let out a belch.
“Hey, Xiao…” Gu Cheng tore his gaze away forcefully, but his finger was still pointing shakily toward the children next to Qi Qingyao. “What’s with these kids? Are they really not Mo Yang’s illegitimate children? F*cking hell!”
Xiao Wuji’s eyes were still locked on the children, unblinking. He also pursed his lips as he said, “They must be his illegitimate children! Definitely, there’s no doubt about it!” D*mn, Mo Yang that bastard, always tyrannizing and getting into trouble in Capital City! Since when did he even have illegitimate children!
When Gu Cheng heard the words ‘illegitimate children’, he was momentarily stunned. He shook his head and said, “No, this girl looks just like him, and the children also look the same, how could that be?” It was impossible for a couple to look so similar.
Xiao Wuji held his forehead wordlessly. He urged Gu Cheng, “You go and ask.”
Gu Cheng did not want to exchange words with the little girl and the children at all. After thinking for a bit, he gritted his teeth and said, “No need to ask. We’ll just investigate it secretly when we go back.”
Xiao Wuji nodded, then said, “Wait, but that’s impossible. Those children look like they’re already a few years old. Mo Yang only turned seventeen after the Lunar New Year! He couldn’t have met this girl a few years back and have something happen between the two of them, right?”
Gu Cheng, “…” That was right!
The two of them began to calm down.
After a short while…
Xiao Wuji said, “But, boys’ puberty began at age thirteen or fourteen, maybe…”
Gu Cheng countered decisively, “Impossible. Mo Yang has never left Eastern Ling, you know that.”
Xiao Wuji said with a sudden revelation, “What if that girl had been to the capital city in Eastern Ling a few years ago and slept with Mo Yang, who was still naive and innocent at the time?”
Gu Cheng was silent for a while, then he turned his head to look at him with a grim expression. “You’re kidding me.”
Xiao Wuji, “…”
Gu Cheng said, “Perhaps they’re really just two people who look similar, just that one is a man and another is a woman. And the woman is also a widow…”
Xiao Wuji said, “We’ll just do as you said and ask someone to look up the girl’s background when we go back.”
…
Zhao Xin sat beside Jiang Yeqian and noticed several beautiful girls glancing over his way from time to time, but the master had been staring fixedly in a certain direction, across the countless singers.
Jiang Yeqian had been staring for half an hour, rendering Zhao Xin speechless. He eventually tugged Jiang Yeqian’s shirt sleeve quietly.
That alerted him.
“Master, several people greeted you just now.”
“Mm.” His reply was dry and he was still staring into the distance.
“Master, you didn’t even spare them a look. It’s a little inappropriate.” Zhao Xin reminded him slightly helplessly.
“Mm.” His voice seemed to be floating in from somewhere very far away.
Zhao Xin, “…”
The performance was still ongoing but Jiang Yeqian could not resist anymore and got up. At the same time, many people looked over as though they were curious about what the Head Grand Secretariat of Northern Liang was going to do.
Jiang Yeqian walked to Qi Qingyao’s side in big strides. He cut to the chase. “You, come out with me for a while.”
Qi Qingyao almost choked to death on a sip of tea. Coughing twice, she looked up, pretending not to know him, “And you are?”
Jiang Yeqian, “…” ‘This woman is doing it on purpose!’
Lu Yan calmly introduced him. “This is the Head Grand Secretariat of Northern Liang.”
Qi Qingyao did not get up. She cast a smile that did not reach her eyes. “Nice to meet you, Head Grand Secretariat.”
Jiang Yeqian, “You…” ‘You really plan on pretending not to know me, is that how it is!’
Qi Qingyao cast a sidelong glance at that idiot. Of course, she noticed that many people were quietly paying attention over here and so she dismissed him casually. “Head Grand Secretariat, could it be that you also fell for my beauty and came to hit on me? If so, please line up first! It’s not your turn yet.”
Jiang Yeqian, “…”
Qi Qingyao smiled a little teasingly. “Moreover, I’m not the protagonist of today’s dinner! If there’s anything, let’s please finish the dinner first then we’ll talk, Head Grand Secretariat.”
After hearing her emphasizing the dinner repeatedly.
Only then did Jiang Yeqian abruptly realize what the occasion was. He glanced around from the corner of his eyes and noticed that many people were looking at him.
He walked back to his seat impassively and sat down again.
Si Jin raised his brows and muttered, “He seems to be very angry.”
“God knows what he’s angry about.” Qi Qingyao snorted and said, “We’ve been deceived for so long, it’s us who should be angry!”
“That’s right.” Si Jin nodded.
Lu Yan was cradling the white cat and did not eat the confectioneries on the table, so he sent all of them to her side. The children sat beside Qi Qingyao obediently, watching the performance while eating like hamsters.
Lu Yan noticed that she was watching the singers more attentively than the beautiful men and could not help but ask her curiously.
“With so many beautiful men present, are you really not intrigued with any of them?” Could it be that she was a blockhead, or have a heart of steel as everyone claimed!
Qi Qingyao said lightly, “When I think about these beautiful men having to take a dump in the latrine pit just like me, I just can’t fall in love with them!”
Lu Yan, “…”
In his entire life.
This was the first time Lu Yan had been completely rendered speechless by a girl!!!!!
