Chapter 170: Jealous (11)

Mo Linyuan retracted his thoughts and smiled. “I don’t have many friends here. Since you’re staying here too, why don’t we continue to walk around in the afternoon?”
Bai Xianyu was just worrying about not having a chance to keep an eye on Mo Linyuan. Bai Li was beside her, so if he discovered anyone suspicious, he might be able to block him.
The best outcome was not only to save Mo Linyuan, but also to destroy the dart engraved with the emblem of the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor when no one was paying attention. If the time was not ripe and she could not retrieve the dart, then nothing could happen to Mo Linyuan.
If anything happened, Great Kui would definitely have to give Daqing an explanation, not to mention finding something like that under so many pairs of eyes of Daqing’s envoy delegation… even if such a frame-up was a clumsy trick.
Now, he treated her as a friend, but everyone cherished their lives. Once it had to do with their own lives, even a good friend would inevitably be suspected.
“I’d like that.”
Mo Linyuan looked at her smiling face and felt much better. “Then let’s take a walk in the bamboo forest. The scenery is good if we go down the mountain.” “Emm.”
The two of them chatted as they walked into the bamboo forest. Mo Linyuan would stop to look at Bai Xianyu from time to time.
“I’m sorry about what happened before. I shouldn’t have hidden my identity from you.” His voice was sincere. “Actually, I already knew that you were Bai Tanshen’s sister at that time.”
Bai Xianyu had long forgotten about this. “It’s alright. Everyone has their own difficulties. Besides, we weren’t very familiar with each other at that time. We only spoke a few words to each other when we met, and didn’t completely let go-
The younger sister of the fierce general of the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor where not a single person was a simple character, Bai Xianyu, was raised to be gentle and adorable, like a little white rabbit who did not know anything about the world. It could be seen how her older brothers pampered her. They probably blocked the storm of blood outside. When they returned, they would even wash their wounds, hide them, wash away the stench of blood, and bring her favorite sweets.
Mo Linyuan laughed, his eyes filled with an excitement that he did not even notice.
The girl’s voice was melodious. When she smiled, she was innocent and charming. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were like obsidian. With just one look, one would have the desire to protect her.
The closer one gets to the abyss, the more one wants the moon in the sky.
Bai Xianyu and Mo Linyuan walked around casually. Seeing that he still had the intention to go up the mountain, she hesitated for a moment and gently tugged at his sleeve before quickly letting go. “Don’t go up. The forest there is deep.”
Not only were there bamboo, but there were also dense trees. They were most suitable for hiding people.
Mo Linyuan did not mind and took two steps forward. “Don’t worry, there are no wild beasts here. Even if there is, I can help you kill it.
Bai Xianyu glanced at the greenery in front of her and made up her mind. “But… I’m afraid of the dark.”
Not far away, there was an extremely soft sound of tree branches cracking, which was covered by the sound of birds chirping.
Mo Linyuan was stunned. Hearing the girl’s slightly panicked and soft voice, he felt as if his heart was being lightly scratched. He blinked uncomfortably. After calming down a little, he turned around and smiled helplessly. “Okay, let’s go back then.”
Bai Xianyu smiled. “Okay.”
With that, she took the initiative to walk out. Mo Linyuan looked at her back and laughed at himself.
Such a casual sentence, when spoken by her, gave off a different feeling. In the past, when he heard those women say that they were afraid of the dark, afraid of blood, he would only think that they were pretentious. However, when it came to Bai Xianyu, he could not help but want to treat her well.
He had never seen a woman who could easily affect his emotions like Bai Xianyu.
It was as if she was born to make men want to protect and monopolize her.
It was unforgivable to make her sad.
Bai Xianyu walked alone for a while and did not see anyone following her, so she turned her head. “Why aren’t you walking?”
Mo Linyuan smiled. “Coming.”
The two of them left the bamboo forest and sat in front of the temple to play a game of chess. After they finished playing, the sky turned dark.
Nothing happened today.
There were still eight days left. She wondered when that person would make a move.
When Bai Xianyu saw that the sky was dark, she stood up and heaved a sigh of relief. “After walking around again just now, I’m so tired. I’ll make a move first.”
She did not even change her excuse, but Mo Linyuan still said considerately, “I’ll get someone to massage your shoulders later?” fr(e)ewebn(o)vel
Bai Xianyu was just making an excuse. Actually, she wasn’t very tired. “No need. I’ll lie down.”
“Alright, see you tomorrow..”
