Chapter 357 Fainted from anger
Chapter 357 Fainted from anger
Mo Xiao never expected that his savior was a young woman, and he had even planned to drink for three days and three nights to thank her.
"Young lady, I am deeply grateful and cannot express my thanks."
"If there's anything I can do to help you in the future, just let me know," he said, bowing to Wen Luozhi.
Wen Luozhi looked up at the tall man in front of her. He looked eight or nine parts like Mo Li. She seemed to see what Mo Li would look like when he grew up.
"It was nothing, you're too kind."
Before Wen Luozhi could even speak, Lang Batian had already put his arm around Mo Xiao's shoulder like a good buddy, making Wen Luozhi's brow twitch.
Do you even know them? Don't just walk up to them!
Mo Xiao laughed and put his arm around him, "Young brother, let's drink until we drop today!"
Wolf Overlord and he walked ahead, and when they turned around, they saw Mo Li grinning at them.
Mo Li looked at him curiously, feeling that he seemed somewhat familiar but she had never seen him before.
When they arrived at the palace gate, Cui Jinhua was already waiting with her people. Mo Li didn't take the events of last night to heart, and instead took her hand and introduced her to the others.
After getting to know each other, Cui Jinhua held Wen Luozhi's hand with gratitude. Ying Wuyai, who was inside her, almost couldn't help but run out when their hands clasped.
He was breathing heavily and on high alert when Cui Jinhua's hand inexplicably trembled.
"What's wrong, Queen? Is there something wrong with your health?" Wen Luozhi asked with concern.
Cui Jinhua shook her head; she didn't know why it had suddenly happened.
While everyone else was busy preparing for the welcome banquet, Wen Luozhi strolled around outside for a while.
Wu Yao only dared to appear when she saw that she was finally alone.
Seeing the knife-like marks on her face, Wen Luozhi sighed softly, "Didn't I tell you to be careful not to hurt your face? It's a lot of trouble to repair."
She almost couldn't bring herself to do anything to Wu Yao's face, which was covered in so many scars. It had finally healed, and now it's turned into this.
"Do you think I wanted this? You know I absolutely adore this face, how could I possibly bear to see her hurt?"
"It's all that Ying Wuyai's fault."
Finding a secluded spot, Wu Yao sat down and told Wen Luozhi about what had happened in the dark cave a couple of days ago.
Finally, she raised her hand to touch her chin, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "I always felt that guy wouldn't die so easily."
She was waiting for Wen Luozhi to arrive for two reasons, one being that she found Cui Jinhua rather strange last night.
She was still the same person, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different; she wasn't Mo Xiao anymore.
Wen Luozhi listened to what she said and took it to heart. She checked her face and took out two bottles of medicine.
After explaining how to use it, she gave her the last course of weight loss pills. Seeing Wu Yao's carefree smile, she asked, "Do A Li's father and mother know who you are?"
Wu Yao's smile froze for a moment, then she shook her head. "How could they possibly recognize me like this? Mo Zhengfu and his grandson didn't say anything either."
Before she came, Mo Zhengfu had promised her that he would spare her life, since she hadn't committed any serious crimes.
Kui Xing is dead, what grudge does she still have to avenge?
Hate Mo Xiao's family? There's no reason for it.
She was recommended by Ying Wuyai to become the Imperial Preceptor. No matter what, Mo Xiao should have arrested her. I don't know what Mo Zhengfu said, but they haven't mentioned her at all.
Seeing her looking like a homeless person, Wen Luozhi suddenly felt homesick. She wondered if her mother would faint from anger after reading the letter she had written.
……
Xie He has been feeling uneasy these past few days, and today she forgot to add salt to the soup she made for Jiang Shuqian.
"Mother, are you worried about Luo Zhi?"
She pulled the absent-minded Xie He down to sit, massaged her shoulders, and comforted her, saying, "Luo Zhi is quick-witted. Besides, Sixth Brother is here. Don't overthink things."
Xie He patted her hand and was about to speak when the steward from the Jiang residence rushed in with a letter.
"Madam, Miss, there's a letter." The butler handed over the letter, and Jiang Shuqian glanced at the cover before handing it to Xie He.
Xie He took it and quickly opened it. When she saw the first few lines of text, a smile gradually appeared on her face, but the content that followed made her suddenly stand up from her chair.
Her fingers trembled as she finished reading the letter, and then she fainted.
"Call a doctor! Quickly, call a doctor!"
Jiang Shuqian quickly supported her and loudly instructed the housekeeper, while she herself reached out to pinch Xie He's philtrum.
Xie He slowly woke up and handed the letter she had been clutching tightly to Jiang Shuqian. "That little sixth brother! He... he's going to drive me crazy!"
Jiang Shuqian took the letter and placed it on the table. Not knowing what had happened, she first tried to comfort Xie He.
After confirming that Xie He's emotions had stabilized somewhat, she picked up the letter and began to read it. As she read the letter, her hand tightened around it.
He was just going to deliver someone, how did he end up on the battlefield?!
And what about Luo Zhi? Can she manage on her own?
She was extremely worried after reading the letter, let alone Xie He, her own mother.
When Madam Jiang arrived and heard what Jiang Shuqian had said, she didn't know how to comfort Xie He. If it were her, she probably would have gone crazy.
"Mother-in-law, your child is grown up and has their own ideas."
“Luo Zhi is a girl with her own ideas and would never act recklessly. Zi Xun always listens to her, so the two siblings must have discussed it beforehand.”
When Xie He heard her say that, she remembered that Wen Luozhi had secretly told her before she left that Helian Yue was also in the military camp, and she felt a little relieved.
But this is really too bold. She'll deal with one person when she comes back, and two people when she comes back!
Wen Zizhou was the first in town to find out. When he arrived and saw Xie He looking dejected, he said nonchalantly, "Old Six isn't stupid. He wouldn't just go and throw his life away for nothing, would he?"
"But that was too impulsive, she didn't even discuss it with the family. When your younger sister comes back, Mother, you should deal with her first."
The thought of Wen Luozhi being scolded and humiliated by his mother made Wen Zizhou grin from ear to ear.
Song Tingwan, who was standing next to him, reached out and pinched his waist hard. Wen Zizhou winced in pain and glared at her angrily, "What are you doing?! You violent woman!"
These past few days, Song Tingwan has increasingly revealed her true nature, becoming a completely different person from before.
He has to watch his tone when he speaks now, since he's practically her savior, right?
Song Tingwan didn't bother with him. Instead, she went to Xie He, massaged her shoulders and legs, and told her jokes to cheer her up. This actually diverted Xie He's attention.
Jiang Shuqian covered her mouth and chuckled, looking at Wen Zizhou who was still jumping up and down in front of her, thinking to herself that she wondered when he would finally get it.
Li Yunwan has been staying in Shanquan Village these past few days, and she feels quite comfortable here with Jiang Wan around.
"If you ask me, this simply won't work. Zizhou is a slow learner."
"We need to push Wan'er harder, otherwise when will this ever end?"
Jiang Wan, while cracking sunflower seeds, offered Li Yunwan some advice.
Back then, she had to force herself on Xia Tingfeng to win him over. They say that it's not that difficult for a woman to pursue a man.
"Let's put on a show, these two kids are making me anxious."
Li Yunwan looked at her in confusion, and Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows. So the two of them put their heads together and whispered to each other.
