"Awake?" Mo Yufeng said softly.
Ma Qingyi jumped up in shock. "I clearly remember... the room was on fire when I was taking a shower, and then I saw you!"
"Well, think about it, I've saved you so many times...but you only cause trouble for me and haven't even said thank you many times!" Mo Yufeng frowned and said with some dissatisfaction and grievance.
"...Thank you!" Ma Qingyi rolled her eyes at him and looked at him with some confusion, "I have no clothes to wear!"
Mo Yufeng walked to the wardrobe, and Ma Qingyi suddenly remembered that he might want to take the clothes he gave her last time!
Sure enough, he took out the clothes and threw them to Ma Qingyi, then looked at her straight.
Ma Qingyi reached out and hooked the dress and asked, "How attracted were you to that woman that you kept it until today!"
Mo Yufeng's face was a little gloomy. He lowered his eyes to stare at the dress, then walked over to touch it, with some sadness in his eyes. "This was my mother's favorite dress when she was alive..."
Ma Qingyi felt a little guilty for her outspokenness. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that!"
Mo Yufeng glanced at her indifferently and then turned and left.
Ma Qingyi put on her clothes and went out, seeing Mo Yufeng standing under a tree. Mo Yufeng heard the sound of the door opening and turned around to see Ma Qingyi already wearing the dress. For some reason, she wore it twice and it didn't feel out of place!
Ma Qingyi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, then she lowered her head shyly and said, "I... will bring it to you later!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Ma Qingyi walked with her head down, deep in thought. When she was about to reach the door, a figure rushed in front of her. "Miss, you're awake! You scared me to death..."
Ma Qingyi looked at Chun Ling, whose eyes were swollen from crying, in surprise, then patted her shoulder and said, "I'm lucky. It's not easy for me to get into trouble. Stop crying like a little cat!"
Chunling wiped her tears and suddenly knelt on the ground, "Please punish me, Miss!"
Ma Qingyi stood there blankly, still not reacting, and then helped Chunling up. "Get up, you haven't done anything wrong, why should I punish you!"
"It was Chunling who acted on her own initiative and listened to His Highness Bai and locked the young lady in the house... then set it on fire, hoping that the prince would come to save you, and then you two would fall in love with each other... it was all Chunling's fault..." Chunling was crying, her hands still tightly clutching Ma Qingyi's dress, trembling.
"It's all Bai Lishen's fault! Get up, I'm going to settle the score with him!" Ma Qingyi said viciously, with her fists clenched at her sides.
Chun Ling stood up and sobbed, "Miss, this is all my fault. Please don't go to His Highness!"
"...Okay! I just said it casually. Look, I'm fine, aren't I?" Ma Qingyi looked at the clothes on her body. "I have to return this dress to him quickly. Let's go back to the garden!"
Chunling nodded and followed her.
Garden
Seeing Bai Lishen leaning against the window, drinking tea leisurely, Ma Qingyi stepped forward and snatched the cup from his hand. "The person who made me unconscious is actually enjoying the flowers and drinking tea in front of the victim's window. He's so romantic and happy!"
Bai Lishen jumped out of the window and tried to reach out to grab the cup from her hand, but he was careless and Ma Qingyi put his outstretched hand behind her back with a backhand, smiling triumphantly.
Bai Lishen was a little panicked, then laughed and said, "When did you learn this trick, girl?"
"Water flows forward, people look forward, there will always be progress!" Ma Qingyi said proudly.
Bai Li took a deep look at it. What kind of sentence is this?
"By the way, this is what Mo Yufeng taught you!"
"Um!"
"He really has the time to spare. He's going to the border to fight in a few days, and he still has time to teach you these things." Bai Lishen said carelessly. Ma Qingyi let him go and looked at him in surprise. "When are we going to the border to fight?"
"...You just don't know about some small border countries. With Mo Yufeng's strength, these are no problem for him!" Bai Lishen rubbed his shoulders and said to her carelessly.
Ma Qingyi suddenly showed a trace of sadness in her eyes, and for some reason her heart seemed to be hanging in the air!
No wonder there are red bloodshot eyes these days, and his expression isn't right!
Bai Lishen looked at her in a daze, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her. "What's wrong? You look absent-minded!"
Ma Qingyi smiled, "Nothing!"
…
Ma Qingyi came to the door of the study and went back and forth.
For some reason, I felt panicked when I heard that he was going to fight. Maybe it was because his father often went to the battlefield, always risking his life. Now he is free and doesn’t have to worry anymore. But Mo Yufeng is still young. What if something happens?
Ma Qingyi looked inside from time to time, as if she could see through it, then frowned and lowered her head, pacing back and forth. Suddenly, a voice came from inside the house, "What are you doing outside? Come in!"
Ma Qingyi opened the door hesitantly and looked at Mo Yufeng who was sitting at the table. "I... am passing by!"
Mo Yufeng looked up and glanced at her. "In less than half an incense stick of time, you passed by my window more than twenty times."
Ma Qingyi touched her neck and smiled awkwardly.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Mo Yufeng frowned, his hand still flipping through the drawings in front of him.
Ma Qingyi put down her hand, took a deep breath and said, "When are you going to fight?"
Mo Yufeng paused and raised his head. "Who told you that?"
"Why are you asking so many questions! You haven't even answered the questions I asked!" Ma Qingyi muttered softly.
Mo Yufeng stood up and walked to the tea table and sat down. "The day after tomorrow!"
So fast!
Ma Qingyi came close to him and asked, "When will you come back?"
"At least one month, at most half a year!" Mo Yufeng said lightly.
Suddenly seeing Ma Qingyi's worried face, he smiled and said, "Why, you're already missing me before I even leave?"
Ma Qingyi's face suddenly flushed, and she dodged a little. "No, I'm just worried that if you're gone for too long... I'll forget all the sword techniques you taught me. I have a very bad memory!"
"Then practice every day. I will check when I come back!" Mo Yufeng said with a smile.
Ma Qingyi lowered her head and said, "Then I'll leave!" Then she turned and left.
Mo Yufeng looked at the disappearing figure, suddenly smiled bitterly, raised his head, and put his hand on his forehead. "Ah...but I started missing you before I even left!..."
He stood up and sat back in front of the window, looking at the battle map in his hand, his mind filled with her every frown and smile.
Mo Yufeng, what's wrong with you!
Ma Qingyi walked to the open space in the garden, saw the wooden sword, reached out and picked it up, thinking about the sword skills she practiced in the morning, and began to dance. Suddenly, she turned around and lost her balance. Just as she was about to make close contact with the ground, she suddenly felt a tightness around her waist. Mo Yufeng hugged her and helped her up, looking at her helplessly, "How can I leave with peace of mind after practicing like this!"
Ma Qingyi blushed, lowered her head and said nothing.
She had always wanted to ask him a question, but she never asked it.
