I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 123 I was young and ignorant at that time

Changling is right next to Xijing, and prices are much more expensive than in Kangle County.Mr. Mo is a very particular person in terms of food and clothing. Luo Qianhuai's little money combined is not even enough to buy him good clothes, so he can only ignore it.

She originally bought this black jade pendant as a gift to her uncle.Now that he has come to Changling City, relatives naturally have to go around and take care of each other, but Luo Qianhuai never thought of turning a blind eye.

It's just that she used her uncle to make a fool of herself in front of Mr. Mo and Xue Wen. She must not meet rashly before they leave, but she can prepare gifts and other things in advance.

Now is not the time to lament this thing.Taking a step back and thinking about it, Mr. Mo bought her a shop and obtained a license, so it was appropriate for him to give her some blood and give her some gifts in return.

"Young master knows that my subordinate doesn't have much money and can't afford better things. This jade pendant is of poor quality and mediocre carving. It is not worthy of you, so I have always been hesitant."

Gold is valuable but jade is priceless, she truly realized it in this day.She has seen several pieces of the jade pendants worn by Mr. Mo, and they are all of high quality and immeasurable price. Any piece can be sold for more than a hundred gold, which is definitely not comparable to the piece of black jade in front of her that is only worth three thousand gold.

So she still held on to a glimmer of hope. Maybe Mr. Mo simply didn't like such a low-end product and would reject it directly.

Jade-like fingers brushed across her palm and took the jade pendant.Then, the air in the room, which was as solemn as substance, suddenly began to flow freely, as if it had been granted an amnesty.

"I still have some conscience." Someone's voice was cold, but it contained a faint smile.

"Pass on the food," he said, "come and dine with me."

Luo Qianhuai was stunned for a moment.It was almost the end of the year, and the eating time had long passed.Mr. Mo is always on time for his meals, but why is it so late today? I don't know what happened to delay him.

She didn't think she was putting this matter on herself, she just thought it was because she was about to leave and things were complicated, so she didn't think much about it.

The food was carefully prepared by Ming Yue Lou, and the ingredients were all of the highest quality. They also specially added vinegared cabbage and stir-fried kidneys with garlic sprouts, which suited her taste very well.

Only the two of them ate, and there was no one waiting in the room.Mr. Mo had been eating slowly and silently but gracefully. Luo Qianhuai also didn't know what to say, so he just kept silent and focused on eating.

Mr. Mo sat at the top, his eyes lingering on her bulging cheeks for a moment, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

He put down the jade chopsticks: "After arriving in Changling, you didn't visit your grandfather's house. Is it because you couldn't find anyone, or for other reasons?"

Luo Qianhuai was startled and almost choked. He couldn't help but struggle to swallow the food in his mouth. Then his eyes widened and he said innocently:

"What did the Lord say? I understand that eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor are all matters. As for personal matters, they naturally have to be dealt with in private time. How can I miss the opportunity to serve the prince?"

"Oh?" There was a hint of amusement in Mr. Mo's eyes: "So, although you have not been seen for the past three days, it turns out that you are doing business - why don't I call Wei Cang in and ask him to see what he is doing? What mission has been sent to you?"

"Well, there's no need for that." The smile on Luo Qianhuai's face was a little stiff: "My lord, the water is so clear but there are no fish, it's hard to be confused, it's hard to be confused!"

"If the water is clear, there will be no fish?" The slender fingers gently tapped on the huanghuali wood table, like gold and jade striking each other, extremely pleasant to the ear.

Mr. Mo's eyes were empty, as if he was looking at her, and also at the life-size green-glazed flying crane candlestick behind her.The candlelight is obviously warm and peaceful, but it also hides a powerful force that cannot be resisted. Between the two, it can achieve an indescribable beauty of balance.

It took half an hour for his pupils to regain focus. When he looked at Luo Qianhuai again, they had lost three points of sharpness and become more gentle.

"Madam Luo." He no longer insisted on calling her: "Today, you have become my one-word teacher again." Luo Qianhuai quickly climbed up the pole: "This subordinate just said casually, if the Lord Everything I gain is because of your majestic beauty and talents, so you can turn decay into magic and change the sea into mulberry fields."

Mr. Mo really couldn't listen anymore. "Quickly stop this trick. Just seeing that you are lucky enough to still be around me, I'm still far from being a wise master."

Luo Qianhuai could hardly take pictures anymore: "My lord, you see that the meal has been eaten and the gifts have been given to each other, so my subordinates will retire first?"

Mr. Mo's face, which was still bright before, suddenly darkened.

He stood up, dusted off his robe, and walked slowly to her case.

The bosses all stood up, but Luo Qianhuai was still sitting there carefree. He quickly stood up and stood up straight, with bright eyes and a half-tilted chin, as if he was waiting for the leader to review.

"Ms. Luo." Mr. Mo looked down at her like this. For some reason, half of the depression in his heart disappeared: "One last question for you, are you really unwilling to follow me to Xijing?"

"Lord, you promised me." Luo Qianhuai had a smile on his face, but his attitude remained firm.

"Okay." Mr. Mo lowered his eyes: "Please step back."

Luo Qianhuai rushed towards the door as if he had been granted amnesty.Mr. Mo's eyes followed her figure, which was so deep and unpredictable.

However, the woman who was about to push the door open suddenly remembered something, turned around suddenly, and turned back, just in time to meet those bottomless eyes.

Luo Qianhuai felt uneasy instinctively.She smiled awkwardly and quickly rushed to the side table: "Well, look at my subordinate's brain, he actually forgot those gadgets he just bought."

She leaned over and grabbed the few things indiscriminately. Just as she was about to turn around, she was already taken into someone's arms.

The plum fragrance is cold, with a faint masculine scent.Luo Qianhuai's brain was a little confused and he didn't know what was going on.

"My Lord," she asked tentatively.

"Madam Luo." A slightly hoarse voice came from behind her ears, numbing half of her body.

"Don't you think we need to give Mo an explanation for what happened that day?"

The scene that was deliberately forgotten reappeared again, and the heat rushed into the neck, stained the cheeks, and flew to the tips of the ears.

But no matter how embarrassing or shameful, the problem always had to be faced, and she had to have a reasonable explanation.

"As you can see, what happened that day was a pure accident." Luo Qianhuai said word for word: "The subordinates don't care. As a man, the Lord should be more open-minded."

The arms holding her suddenly became tighter, and the voice in her ears was filled with coldness: "But how do I remember that someone said that she loves Yu Mo?"

"That is because my subordinate is young and ignorant, and does not know the heights of the world."
