3369 It’s Been A Long Time
Seeing her expression, Feng Jiu patted her hand and stood up, “Sister, I’m going to find Ze, you can sit here for a while!” She left after saying this.
Let them take care of their own emotional problems! Even if she wanted to help, she wouldn’t know where to start, especially since her sister said she no longer loved him but couldn’t let it go in her heart.
She had also gone through this. However, her relationship with Ze had always been trusting and stable, with no suspicion, betrayal, or heartbreak. In comparison, they were truly blessed.
Moreover, they were preparing for their wedding. After they got married, they would go on to have their children and a home of their own…
Her steps became lighter as she thought about this. She walked to the back mountain, entered the cave-dwelling, and found Mo Ze meditating inside. She sat down next to him.
“Why are you here?” Xuanyuan Mo Ze opened his eyes to look at her. These recent days, he had been meditating here, not for the purpose of cultivation but rather to have an epiphany.
“Today, I took Hao’er out to play, and we were ambushed. Hao’er was frightened,” Feng Jiu said, hugging his arm and resting her head on his shoulder.
“Who was it? Are there any clues?” Xuanyuan Mo Ze frowned. Someone dared ambush them, given their current reputation? Their attackers must have had a specific target.
“We think it might be the people from Skylink Monarch, because those people were targeting Little Hao’er.” She sighed. “He was frightened and couldn’t sleep when he came back. I couldn’t get him to sleep until I let Qin Xin play a soothing lullaby.”
“I heard from Elder Mei that he has already notified his biological parents. After meeting his parents, if he’s willing, let him go back! Maybe under their care, he can get better treatment. He should be completely protected with the Black Tortoise Monarch’s current strength and influence.”
Feng Jiu was silent for a moment after hearing this, then said, “We’ll see about that! We’ll have to see what his biological parents are like.”
With a faint smile, Xuanyuan Mo Ze put his arm around her and let her lean on him. The two sat quietly together, enjoying each other’s presence.
They left the back mountain together when it got dark. As they walked towards their courtyard, they noticed Leng Hua approaching.
“Hell’s Lord, Master.” Leng Hua bowed to the two of them, then took a step forward and announced, “Young Master Mo Chen is here, he is sitting in the courtyard.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s expression changed slightly when he heard this. His deep gaze was fixed on the courtyard ahead, and his lips were pressed together in silence. Feng Jiu, on the other hand, was thrilled. “Mo Chen is here? When did he arrive? Why did he not tell us?” While she was talking, she took Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s hand and stepped forward.
Leng Hua slowed down, beckoned to a maid, and instructed her before walking inside. However, he did not enter the courtyard but instead stood outside.
Mo Chen, who was sipping tea in the courtyard, had not yet seen Feng Jiu, but he could hear her voice. When he heard her voice, the hand holding the teacup paused and a spark ignited in the depth of his eyes. When he looked up again, that glimmer was no longer there.
He turned around and looked at the two people who were walking together hand in hand. The corners of his mouth turned up in a smile as he said, “Mo Ze, Ah Jiu, it’s been a long time.”
