Chapter 76 - Not Because of Love (1/2)

Shi Qingxue smiled slightly and asked, “Of course, the carriage and guards are no problem at all. But Sister Yi is so concerned about Sister Jing. Are you at ease about letting Sister Jing return alone?”

Zeng Yi was choked. She glared at Shi Qingxue for a long time and said nothing.

Mo Junyang said at this right time, “Sister Xue is right. Since you are so worried about Second Lady, I can ask Wei Zichao to send you back home by carriage. As for visiting the lake, it is enough for me to have Sister Xue accompanied.”

“What?”

“Ah?”

Zeng Yi and Shi Qingxue spoke at the same time, looking at Mo Junyang in disbelief.

Mo Junyang was calm. He looked at Qingxue and argued reasonably, “Zeng Yi cares about her sister, so of course she needs to go back together with Second Lady. You have just heard so much about allusions and poems. Are you even unwilling to repeat them for me?”

Shi Qingxue had some scruples in her heart, so she was unwilling to stay with Mo Junyang alone at this time. But Mo Junyang gave her a glance, and she could only take back her rejection.

Well, she had a hidden task, which was to drive away all the unqualified admirers around Mo Junyang. She thought about this task at this moment and found it really troublesome. However, she was so desperate to compensate Mo Junyang at that time. At last, it was her who had to suffer.

Qingxue sighed in her heart heavily, but there was a sweet smile on her face, “Brother Yang has such interest. How can I be unwilling?”

Mo Junyang also smiled and determined, “Wei Zichao, you go and ask someone to drive the carriage here. You must send these two ladies back to the house of the Zeng Family safely.”

It seemed that Wei Zichao didn’t realize that once he drove the carriage away, his master couldn’t go back home later. He responded politely, “Yes.”

The carriage soon arrived. The two ladies were sent into the carriage quickly. And the carriage rushed to the House of the Zeng Family.

During this period, Zeng Yi had no chance to say a word. She could only move farther and farther away in the carriage, and watch the figures of Mo Junyang and Shi Qingxue becoming smaller and smaller.

By the lake, the two were walking in silence.

Mo Junyang didn’t speak, Shi Qingxue also didn’t say anything at first. The silent atmosphere made her a little uneasy. She racked her brains and thought of a topic, “Did you cause the matter of Shi Baojin?”

It was a question, but without a tone of doubt.

Mo Junyang raised his eyebrows slightly, trying to look surprised, “Why do you think so?”

Qingxue didn’t even look at Mo Junyang and said with certainty in her tone, “You just tell me whether it was you or not!”

Mo Junyang was silent for a while, pondering over the two issues of dealing with this matter alone and never lying to Shi Qingxue. He was about to shake his head.

Shi Qingxue stopped and said more firmly, “I know it was you!”

Okay, this time Mo Junyang nodded without hesitation, “Well, it was me. I promised that I would handle this matter well.”

Shi Qingxue knew that Shi Baojin had sent a stranger to rape her. This time she didn’t ask for mercy for Shi Baojin, but asked with a smile instead, “Was your method to find her a good marriage?”

Until this moment, Shi Qingxue didn’t doubt that the Zhao Family would marry Shi Baojin. After all, the Shi Family had great fame. Besides, Mo Shujun wouldn’t allow her beloved granddaughter to give herself to a man for nothing.

“A good marriage?” Mo Junyang sneered and lowered his voice, “Whatever you say.”

Shi Qingxue glanced at Mo Junyang with a suspicious look, “Are you going to make trouble?”

Mo Junyang smiled innocently, “How come? Am I such a narrow-minded and vengeful person?”

Speaking of these two words, the two both couldn’t help remembering what Mo Junyang had done to his enemies after having gained power in his previous life. Then they became silent at the same time.

“Ahem!” Mo Junyang coughed twice before he earnestly said, “You can rest assured. Not only will I mess up the marriage of Zhao Liang and Shi Baojin, but I will also try my best to promote it, in order to make sure that Shi Baojin marries him as impressively and conspicuously as she wants.”

Rest assured? It was even more impossible for her to rest assured in this way!

Shi Qingxue judged objectively, “Well, I don’t believe it. So what exactly do you want to do?”

Mo Junyang didn’t feel uncomfortable with his being doubted at all. Instead, he had a sweet feeling in his heart. His mind was full of sweet thoughts that my Qingxue certainly knew me best, which made King Rui’s eldest son, who was always intelligent and imposing, a little bit dizzy.

Of course, King Rui’s eldest son was good at pretending. He looked indifferent and said calmly, “I will give her whatever she wants. Then I will ask them back in the future. Is it too excessive?”

Well, that was to say, he lifted her high enough first, and then smashed her with a snap.

Shi Qingxue didn’t know what Mo Junyang planned to do, but this plan made her feel inexplicably happy. She couldn’t help but laugh and made a little joke, “Well, you really have everything under control!”

Mo Junyang stared at Shi Qingxue for a long time. His darkened expression was full of complexity which Qingxue couldn’t understand. She pursed her lips anxiously and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me?”

Mo Junyang didn’t look away. After a while, he said in a deep voice, “I thought you would get mad. Last time you…”

Shi Qingxue suddenly recalled that when Mo Junyang was annoyed by Shi Qingxue before, he almost let a group of beggars rape Shi Baojin out of rage.

At that time, she was already unhappy with Shi Baojin, but considering that they were in the same family and that domestic shame should not be made public, she wouldn’t like to see Shi Baojin bullied.

Maybe in her heart, she still intended to protect the weak at that time!

At present, a similar situation happened, but the above emotions never appeared in her heart again. She even felt that Mo Junyang’s retaliatory method of seducing her was reasonable.

Well, there was nothing bad about it.
