Thief and silly concubine

Chapter 11 Natural selection, survival of the fittest

The man lying on the soft bed in the private room looked at the conspiracy below, heard Lan Nian's sigh, and slightly hooked the corners of his lips. The cold smile made people feel chilling, but it carried an irresistible elegance.

"In big families, this kind of thing is common. Natural selection, survival of the fittest. That's the truth." The man said indifferently.

In the long and narrow phoenix eyes, there was no pity or sympathy.

But here, as soon as the man finished speaking, the phoenix eyes raised slightly, and interest flashed in the black pupils.

Lan Nian saw the man looking downstairs like this, and she couldn't help but look, but she didn't find anything unusual.

He dares to swear that just now he saw interest in this cold man's eyes!This is a look he has never seen since he was a child!
In fact, it wasn't that Lan Nian didn't see it, but that Mo Jiuqing's movements downstairs were so fast that even the man only saw it for a moment.

Mo Jiuqing leaned sideways on the chair, as if he was tired from watching a movie and was resting. With his slender and slender fingers, he picked up the things in his pockets, as quickly as lightning, and threw them at the destination accurately.

This kind of action is so familiar that it seems to be done thousands of times, without any mistakes or hesitation.

In the slightly narrowed eyes, there was a stream of confidence and arrogance, and the corners of the slightly curved lips held a sneering smile. Such a contradictory expression made the man in the attic slightly distracted.

"Heh...so I still have some skills...little fox..." The man smiled lowly, with a somewhat unpredictable dullness, but it was like the low and luxurious cello when he played it.

Mo Jiuqing's series of actions was just a blink of an eye. After doing all of this, he lazily leaned on the chair again, just waiting for the good show to start.

"Bang!" The gong and drum sounded, Mo Wanwan and Wang Ziqian looked at each other and nodded.

"Oops!" Wang Ziqian's exclaimed voice actually overshadowed the sound of gongs and drums.

Wang Ziqian's exclamation also interrupted the crowd watching the play, and everyone turned their eyes to this side.

Mo Jiuqing curled the corners of his lips slightly, and a good show was staged.

"What's wrong with Ziqian?" Seeing Wang Ziqian's exclamation, Mo Wanwan turned her head and asked in confusion.

Wang Ziqian stood up, almost rummaged through her pockets, and finally looked at Mo Wanwan dejectedly and said, "Wanwan, the jade pendant my father gave me is gone! That jade pendant is my father, who prayed for me in the Jokhang Temple. Come!"

When Mo Wanwan heard it, she also showed a shocked look and said, "Why did it disappear? Did you wear it today?"

Watching the performance of the two, Mo Jiuqing said indifferently: "Exaggerated."

Except for the man in the private room, no one heard this disdainful comment.

The people who watched the play were more or less well-known in the imperial capital. Naturally, they knew the identities of Mo Jiuqing and his party, and most of them watched with the mentality of watching a play, and no one stepped forward to help.

"Yes, I wore that jade pendant today, and it was still there just now, why did it disappear after just a while!? Who stole my jade pendant!" Wang Ziqian said anxiously.

"Ziqian, don't worry, think about who you approached in the first place, and when did Yupei disappear." Another lady from the official family stepped forward and said reassuringly.

Mo Jiuqing sat lazily on the chair, watching the farce with a smile.

"Yeah, Ziqian, think about it again." Mo Wanwan also agreed, and then she gave Mo Jiuqing a sideways look.

Wang Ziqian thought for a while in frustration, and murmured: "Before I saw Wanwan just now, my jade pendant was still there, but when we came in later, I stood beside Jiuqing for a while, then sat down to watch the play, The jade pendant disappeared."

Although her voice was very low, it was enough for everyone in the silent theater to hear it.

After hearing Wang Ziqian's words, everyone turned their attention to Mo Wanwan and Mo Jiuqing.

Looking at Mo Wanwan with scrutiny made Mo Wanwan a little unnatural, but when she thought that the good show in the future would be enough to ruin Mo Jiuqing's reputation, Mo Wanwan couldn't restrain her excitement.
