Shangguan Xuan did not answer Mo Shisheng again, and Mo Shisheng naturally did not take the initiative to start a conversation, so the atmosphere fell silent again.
"Yan'er!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice called out from outside the carriage. Mo Shisheng raised her hand and lifted the curtain to look out, only to find Qingluan standing alone at the corner of the street.
"Stop at the corner, I need to pick up a friend."
"yes."
When the coachman brought the carriage to a stop in front of Qingluan, she didn't hesitate and quickly got into the carriage. When she saw Shangguan Xuan, she was slightly taken aback.
But only for a moment. She sat down next to Mo Shisheng, affectionately taking his arm. "Yan'er, you got up so early?"
"..."
Sensing the surprise in Qingluan's voice, Mo Shisheng clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, "Why do you act like it's strange that I get up so early?"
"This is absolutely groundbreaking."
Qingluan chuckled softly, then, noticing the paper bag in Mo Shisheng's hand, sighed, "It smells so good! Did you buy it from the steamed bun shop in the west of the city?"
"Um."
Mo Shisheng chuckled. She was already quite full after eating one bun, so she handed the paper bag to Qingluan, saying, "Here, have this."
"OK."
With a faint smile on her charming face, Qingluan took the paper bag from Mo Shisheng's hand without any politeness, but felt a cold gaze fall on her.
Knowing that the cold gaze came from Shangguan Xuan, Qingluan's lips curled into a cold smile, her eyes filled with provocation. She glanced at Shangguan Xuan lightly, then continued to eat the steamed bun that Mo Shisheng had given her with a clear conscience.
Shangguan Xuan: "..."
I could barely contain my urge to throw this woman out!
Sensing Shangguan Xuan's strangeness, Mo Shisheng looked up, and Shangguan Xuan immediately resumed his indifferent expression.
Qingluan naturally took in this scene as well, inwardly grumbling as she ate her delicious bun: Looking at her with such a cold gaze? Are you kidding me! Even the coldest gaze can't compare to the Imperial Advisor's!
However, when Qingluan thought of her master, she remembered the solemn look on Chihu's face when they came out of the Imperial Preceptor's mansion.
Just half an hour ago, when Qingluan was about to leave the Imperial Preceptor's residence, she happened to run into Chihu, who was returning from outside. His expression was solemn, and it took Qingluan calling him three times before he came back to his senses!
Qingluan sensed something was wrong and went to Chihu, grabbing his arm. "What's wrong?"
"Azure Phoenix?"
Chi Hu realized that the person pulling him was Qing Luan, and his sunny and handsome face instantly regained its carefree expression. "What, you can't bear to part with your brother? In that case, you won't go to Jialuo Academy?"
"What happened?"
Qingluan had always known Chihu's personality well. He usually never showed his true feelings on his face, and he was even better at hiding his thoughts than Zhuque and her. Just now, there must have been no one around, which was why he had such a solemn expression.
Something that could make Chi Hu show a serious expression must be extraordinary.
"What could possibly happen to your brother? You're overthinking it." Despite Qingluan's serious question, Chihu still gave a very irreverent answer, his smile revealing his tiger teeth, making him appear exceptionally sunny.
However, Qingluan had no intention of joking with him and said coldly, "Do you really want me to lay a hand on you?"
"Qingluan, you're a girl, you can't just start a fight!"
Upon hearing that Qingluan was about to make a move, Chihu took a step back, seemingly to avoid Qingluan's next attack.
