Chapter 273 - Crossing Necks (1/2)

After saying goodbye to Shi Baojing, Shi Qingxue went to King Rui’s mansion.

Because of Leng Yan’s case, she almost didn’t see Mo Junyang these days.

It was not that they didn’t contact each other.

For example, Mo Junyang helped her hide Leng Yan. Even if Mo Shujun was capable and dug the ground, probably she couldn’t find the maid.

However, Shi Qingxue hadn’t apologized to Mo Junyang.

She came to King Rui’s mansion alone and wanted to give Mo Junyang a pleasant surprise, but as soon as she reached the gate of the mansion, a carriage stopped at the gate and prepared to set off at any time.

The guard Wei Zichao knocked at the door of her carriage and said in a low voice outside, “My Lady, my master invited you to share a carriage with him later.”

Shi Qingxue sat in the carriage and surprise could hardly be concealed on her face.

She had been out for only a short while, yet Mo Junyang knew it?

Did he follow her all the time?

“My Lady?” Wei Zichao didn’t hear Shi Qingxue’s answer after a long time, so he called again gently.

Shi Qingxue finally came back to earth and replied in a hurry, “Okay.”

She bit her lower lip and got out of her carriage. Then she got into Mo Junyang’s carriage.

Mo Junyang closed his eyes and rested his mind while sitting in the carriage. As he saw her, a faint smile was shown on his stiff face involuntarily, as if seeing Shi Qingxue was enough to make him happy and relieved.

Shi Qingxue knew that Mo Shujun always didn’t like to show his emotions. If he was not relieved, he wouldn’t express his feelings even when he loved her to the bone.

It was not that he was unwilling to, but this man was used to restraining himself since long ago.

During the long period in the previous life, Mo Junyang had early experienced the fickleness of human nature and the inconstant relationships, so he was clear that if he clearly revealed his emotions, it would only make himself more powerless.

Only indifference was the best weapon to protect himself.

So in the previous life, even though Mo Junyang loved her deeply, Qingxue didn’t know that until she died.

However, now, Mo Junyang was more and more relieved in front of her. It seemed that as time passed, he lost his hard shell in disguise little by little and showed his soft heart.

Shi Qingxue knew that even if Mo Junyang really followed her and inquired about her in the past, he would make it perfect and not let her find it. It was difficult to accept something like this, even though he was out of kindness. However, this time, he didn’t hide it at all.

No matter if he intentionally didn’t hide it or he subconsciously gave up hiding it,

Either reason made Shi Qingxue soft-hearted for no reason.

She didn’t get angry but felt happy.

Nevertheless, on the surface, she still put on a straight face. As soon as she got into the carriage, she complained, “You sent people to follow me!”

Mo Junyang was about to speak when he suddenly heard Shi Qingxue’s words. He was dumbfounded, but soon his face got stiff and looked embarrassed. He opened and shut his mouth several times yet didn’t make a sound.

It appeared that he was hesitant, at a loss for what to do, so he had to lower his head and “admit his guilt” obediently.

Gee, he was not lovely.

Mo Junyang was good at arguing and could fool her with a random excuse. He could mix the spurious with the genuine, and probably even she would be fooled.

However, the man was so honest in front of her, which made her unable to blame him boldly.

Her face remained cold for a short while but then changed. She walked to Mo Junyang slowly.

As soon as she sat down, she met Mo Junyang’s surprised and confused eyes, which seemed to ask, “Aren’t you mad at me? Why are you willing to sit next to me?”

Some things were best left unsaid

Shi Qingxue just felt that her face got burning again soon.

Humph! She was “considerate” of the man, but why did she make herself bashful?

She turned away and pretended to cough twice. Then she stressed seriously, “I won’t bother about it because you helped me.”

“Really?” Mo Junyang heaved a sigh of relief obviously and loosened up abruptly, leaning against Shi Qingxue subconsciously.

Shi Qingxue hurriedly reached out her hand to resist Mo Junyang’s chest. The blush on her face spread to the tips of her ears. She stated in haste, “Stop! We are talking about business. What are you doing?”

Nobody knew if Mo Junyang was too nervous just now. He restrained his negative emotions hard all the time because he hadn’t seen Shi Qingxue for long. He couldn’t tell the girl that he was extremely restless these days. For several times, he even wanted to ask Shi Qingxue if she regretted it. Could he go to Duke Shi’s mansion to snatch her?

The dark emotions had rooted in his heart since long ago, and they were not shown at ordinary times. Even nobody knew that.

However, they existed indeed.

Now Shi Qingxue was sitting in the flesh in front of him, and she was so lively, arousing all his emotions.

He urgently needed a vent. He couldn’t speak out, so he just wanted to get close to Shi Qingxue desperately to confirm that she belonged to him.

She was his!

Shi Qingxue’s small hand couldn’t stop Mo Junyang’s movements. He wrapped her both hands with a single hand without putting forth strength and just approached Shi Qingxue constantly.

Their faces clung to each other, and they were like mandarin ducks with crossing necks, while they could sense each other’s breaths.

Mo Junyang kissed Qingxue’s neck slowly, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. He kissed gently yet intimately.

At long intervals, his unclear voice could be heard. “Say it.”

Shi Qingxue had goose bumps all over her body and felt that every part on her neck touched by Mo Junyang was scorching.

She wanted to dodge, while she couldn’t as her body was soft.

Shi Qingxue tried to cry yet had no tears and almost wanted to shout, “Is this what you should do when you talk about business? Is it?”
