exposed
After Nanfeng fled in panic, Xie Lian shrugged and closed the door again.
He glanced at the young man beside him again and said with a smile: "He's not hungry, how about you?"
Saburo also smiled and replied, "I'm hungry."
Xie Lian smiled, then stood up again, turned around, and casually tidied the altar. “Alright. So, what would you like to eat, Huacheng?”
He spoke with conviction.
There was a moment of silence, and then a low laugh was heard.
"I still prefer the name 'Sanlang'."
Xie Lian understood, his long-held suspicions finally confirmed. He glanced around and noticed that Xiu Mao, who should have been crawling on the ground, had disappeared.
Xie Lian: “?”
…
Mo Qiuyan had quietly fled the scene as soon as Xie Lian opened his mouth to speak to Hua Cheng, and was currently eavesdropping at the entrance of Puqi Temple using talismans.
After all, for Xie Lian, Mo Qiuyan is more familiar to him than Huacheng. What if Xie Lian gets so engrossed in reminiscing about the past with her that he forgets about Huacheng? :-D
Stealing the spotlight?!
That’s right, Mo Qiuyan would naturally drop both the Xiumao vest and the Lingyun vest together.
After all, there is no reason to hide it from His Highness.
Wouldn’t it be better if Xie Lian could deduce through her that Hua Cheng was the “Wuming” from eight hundred years ago (holding a thornless rose jpg.)?
How sweet it is that Hua Lian expresses her feelings so early on!!
This way, the Tianguan Volume can be finished sooner!! The author won’t have to write so many words!! (?)
Mo Qiuyan nodded with satisfaction.
…
During this time, the two people in the house came out and chatted with the little half-moon in the jar. When they went back, Mo Qiuyan calculated the time, jumped back into the house through the window, and landed steadily.
Xie Lian saw a black and white shadow flash in from the corner of his eye and smiled. He turned around and picked up the unknown object that was cooking in the house. He smiled gently and said, "Lingyun, you're back? Do you want to try it?"
Mo Qiuyan: “.”
It’s normal to expose someone’s identity, but why do you want to treat me to a meal? ! !
Mo Qiuyan decisively ignored the second half of Xie Lian's words and glanced at Hua Cheng.
I heard it all!! It was you who betrayed me with just one sentence, which made Xie Lian go from suspicion to confirmation that I was Ling Yun’s! ! ! !
Shouldn't I be the one who took off my vest? (Angry)
Flower City: (Looking at the sky.jpg)
Xiu Mao didn't say anything, but a random voice echoed from inside the room, as if a person were speaking. "Alright, I'll go settle the score with Hua Cheng later. So, what made His Highness suspect me before?"
Xie Lian was startled, his eyes widening slightly. The timbre of the voice beside him had become both strange and familiar over time, but he still recognized its owner instantly.
“…Qiu Yan?”
"It's me."
Xie Lian smiled, but didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he answered Mo Qiuyan's previous question.
It turned out that when the scorpion-tailed snake exploded at Half Moon Pass, Xie Lian had taken advantage of everyone's inattention to examine it and discovered traces of the remaining magic and a mist that had dissipated to an imperceptible level. The information provided by the spirit text and the unusual behavior of "Xiu Mao" had aroused his suspicions. Finally, with Hua Cheng's finishing touch, he successfully uncovered the identity of the assassin.
Mo Qiuyan: "...Your Highness is amazing (reading)"
Xie Lian smiled.
After a long pause, Xie Lian asked again, “Then… can Qiu Yan return to his true form?”
"After so much time, she must have changed a lot, right?"
"OK."
The black and white cat before him twitched its ears and vanished. In its place appeared a figure dressed in light purple. He looked much the same as he had eight hundred years ago, but his features were less raw than he remembered them, more indifferent, and his eyes, darker than before, had shifted to purple.
When Mo Qiuyan's face was expressionless, her demeanor was quite indifferent, like a flower growing high on a mountaintop. However, she was now staring intently at Xie Lian, her thin lips parted slightly:
"Hi, hi, Your Highness, long time no see!! Zierwa—— (jpg.)"
After saying that, he didn't forget to make a gesture.
Xie Lian: “.”
So nothing has changed...
And don’t read the words in brackets!!!
And where did Zierwa come from? !
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has successfully become a complainer :-D
Huacheng: “…”
My sister's skills in showing off haven't declined at all.
Huacheng didn't want to think about what the meaning of Zierwa was.
…
Hua Cheng changed his posture, still resting his chin on his hand, staring at Xie Lian and saying, "Oh? Then how did you know that I am mine?"
Xie Lian’s mind was filled with the umbrella beneath the bloody rain, the jingling silver chain, and the cold silver wristband. He thought to himself, “You’re not really hiding anything from me.” But when it came to his words, he didn’t know why his reaction changed.
He said seriously, "You're dressed in red, and you seem to know everything, be all-powerful, and fearless. No matter how you try to test yourself, you're always flawless. You must be at the 'Absolute' realm or above. So, apart from the 'Blood Rain Scholar,' the one who scares the gods and immortals, I can't think of anyone else."
Mo Qiuyan suddenly interjected, "After all, Huacheng is a "three-no" product, so naturally it's 'know-it-all, know-it-all, and fear-less'."
Huacheng: "..." Get out!!
…
After being successfully exposed, Mo Qiuyan did not stay long. After chatting for a few words and reminiscing about the past, he quietly hid the photo talisman in the corner and found an excuse to return to Yunfan Valley.
After all, we need to give the young couple (not yet) some space~ (silly smile)
Mo Qiuyan ignored the fact that he had installed a bug (?) for someone else in the middle of the night, and put aside his conscience and happily ate candy.
"Can I see your true appearance?" Xie Lian stared at Hua Cheng's face, examining it carefully for a moment before asking.
This time, Hua Cheng didn't respond immediately like he had before. He lowered his arm. Xie Lian didn't know if it was his imagination, but his gaze seemed to darken a little, and his heart couldn't help but lift.
…
"That's not certain. What if I have a green face, fangs, and disorganized features, and am as ugly as a Rakshasa and as evil as a Yaksha? What will you do?"
Mo Qiuyan, who was standing next to the photo talisman, said: "."
How could Hua Cheng ask such a little girlish question?!
Isn't this the same question as 'If I weren't pretty, would you still love me?'?
Mo Qiuyan was shocked.
Huahua never thought you would have this day!!
Love makes your IQ drop (shake head jpg.)
When the sound from the talisman finally stopped and only the sound of even breathing could be heard, Mo Qiuyan turned off the photo-recording talisman with satisfaction.
When she turned around, she saw a vicious monster standing behind her.
"Depend on!!"
Hua Cheng's face was filled with a sunny fake smile (?): "Have you heard enough?"
Apart from the initial shock, Mo Qiuyan didn't react much. After destroying the talisman at Puqi Temple, she said righteously: "This is a beautiful memory between you and His Highness, Huahua (emphasis added)!!"
"Wouldn't it be nice to revisit your early days together after you're together?!"
“…”
Huacheng was silent.
Mo Qiuyan: "You hesitated, didn't you?"
Hua Cheng: "...I can't argue with you."
Mo Qiuyan was satisfied. She knew Huacheng had compromised with her and wanted to record their beautiful life.
The hardest thing to do is agree!
By the way, is the next plot about Xie Lian coming to the ghost market?
