Chapter 145: Closing the Door on Him (1/2)

Translator: Soldier

Yun Wu lifted her eyebrows, as if she couldn't understand what he was talking about. ”Playing a trick on you? You're the Lord of Luo City, and I'm just a vulnerable woman. How do I dare play a trick on you?”

”But, Your Lordship, I heard that you found your natural mother. As her son, isn't this Snow Ganoderma which could prolong her life the exact gift you should buy her? I did you a favor and you want to arrest me?”

A suspicious look instantly flashed across the bottom of of Cloud Murong's eyes as he heard her tone of voice.

He squinted his eyes, his gaze roaming over her.

Gracefully standing there, Yun Wu lifted the corners of her mouth with a bland smile, looked back at him and let him size her up.

This feeling...

After a while, Cloud Murong raised the corners of his mouth. The sullenness on his face gradually dissolved. There was even a ghost of smile on it.

”I never expected that you're so eloquent, which reminds me of my goddaughter!” He seemed to be sounding her out.

Yun Wu lifted her eyebrows. ”You flattered me, Your Lordship. Surely I don't have the honor to bear any resemblance to your goddaughter. But this Venerable Mistress looks like my grandmother very much.”

He would be a fool if he still couldn't understand after she said this.

”It's really you. You brat. You've been away for so long, yet the moment we reunited, you gave me such a big 'gift'.” The sullenness and anger on Cloud Murong's face had been replaced by resignedness and affection.

Naturally, Granny Medicine, who had been silently sitting on the side all along, also understood. Surprise and delight gleaming in her eyes, she stood up from the chair and was just about to call her name when Cloud Murong said, ”Mother, since this lady is Master Nangong's friend, surely we won't make things difficult for her.”

On hearing his words, Grandma Medicine immediately understood what he meant.
