Chapter 220 Heart of Stone



If we're talking about a purely collaborative relationship, he's not blind; he can't lie and say things against his conscience.

It's this kind of in-between, neither-too-high nor-too-low, approach that makes people's teeth ache.

"Young Master, do you have some reservations about Miss Mo Lan?"

What he really wanted to ask was whether his master had taken a liking to the girl, but based on his understanding of his master, perhaps even he himself was unsure of his own feelings, so asking would be pointless.

“Concerns? That woman is as hard as stone. I’ve never found anything that she can take to heart.”

A person needs weaknesses to be controlled, but Hua Molan gave him the feeling that there was nothing she couldn't give up, as if she didn't care about anything.

Hearing his master's resentful tone, Wu Feng lowered his head and twitched his lips. When Miss Mo Lan was with his master, she was indeed cold, but his master wasn't much better.

Every time we meet, it's either a back-and-forth probing or various awkward moments. We don't talk about anything romantic, so how can we have a good attitude?

Thinking of this, Wufeng suddenly remembered Tingyu, that chatterbox. Although that guy could be annoying at times, he knew a lot about romantic matters. He would talk to him later and ask him to help his master relieve his worries.

"Ahem... Young Master, I think Miss Mo Lan is very conscientious in her work. After we signed the contract, she followed the rules meticulously and never overstepped the boundaries."

Sigh, as a subordinate, I always feel like I have the heart of an old mother.

"Heh~, you think she's willing to do this? That's because you don't understand her. That woman hates trouble and follows the principle of 'the less trouble, the better.' So, she will never take the initiative to provoke conflict, but you can't provoke her either, or she will definitely skin you alive."

As Qin Su spoke, he twitched the corner of his mouth. It was because he understood her that he knew she was a woman with a heart of stone, born in the year of the tiger, and with a set of fangs.

No Wind: "..."

Isn't this something you already know quite well?

"Master, now that things are settled, shall we leave as well?"

"Okay, let's go back." Qin Su looked up at the mountain peak in front of him. Jiang Mian would take care of the rest, so there was no need to stay any longer.

Basking in the warm sun, Mo Lan and Han Shuang traveled light and rode their horses back to Ye County.

During the trade fair, the security escort agency received orders one after another, and they were definitely not going to be idle for a while.

"Boss, here's the ledger. Would you like to take a look?"

Zhou Bo walked in carrying two thick ledgers. One was the ledger for escorting goods, and the other was the ledger for his own business. In the past two years, he has been traveling all over the country, and each time he would bring back a batch of local specialties. Adhering to the principle that scarcity makes things valuable, he traded goods in all directions, and the profits he made were no less than those from escorting goods.

"Leave it to Han Shuang. I'll take a look when I have time." Mo Lan looked at Zhou Bo. In just over two years, Zhou Bo had become a capable chief镖头 (bodyguard/escort) and steward, and he managed the affairs of Ye County very well.

"Where's my older brother? Did he leave or is he hanging out with Karen?"

"Ahem... The eldest young master did indeed go out with Karen, but I don't know exactly where they went."

Recalling Karen's enthusiasm for the eldest son, Zhou Bo's face flushed slightly. Although the eldest son always had a cold face towards Karen, for some reason, he always felt that the way the two interacted was a bit strange.

Listening to Zhou Bo's explanation, Mo Lan pinched the bridge of her nose. If she continued to hang out with Karen, her older brother might become gay.
