Chen Mo had just entered the courtyard when Jing Zhe followed him in.
Moreover, he sat on the stone platform like a lord, with his legs crossed, and very casually ordered Guizhi, "I'm so thirsty, Guizhi, hurry up and make a pot of tea. Your young lady is so rich, her tea must be top-notch, right? Pick the best one and make it!"
Chen Mo was so angry that her teeth itched. Before she could say "Don't make it for him," Gui Zhi didn't even resist and happily ran off to make tea.
Whose maid is this?
Chen Mo took a deep breath and said, "Young Master, don't you think it's a bit much to come here so late?"
Jing Zhe shook his head earnestly, "I don't think so."
"..."
I endured it.
Chen muttered something to herself, then said, "But I didn't agree to let you in. How did you manage to get in? And you even want to stay here overnight? Aren't you a little too shameless?"
Jing Zhe didn't take it to heart and shook his finger, saying, "Oh dear, isn't Miss Chen being a bit too stingy? The day before yesterday, I invited Miss Chen to go hiking and have some barbecue, and even offered to let her stay overnight, but you refused. Why are you turning your back on me now?"
Chen Mo was speechless after hearing this. How could these be the same?
Back then, she was disguised as a man, which is very different from how she is now as a woman!
I'll endure it!
She took another deep breath and said, "Young master, it's a dark and windy night, and we're alone together. If word gets out..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jing Zhe waved his hands repeatedly and said, "There are men who are alone, but women who are widowed are out of the question. You're underestimating Guizhi too much, aren't you? Don't underestimate Guizhi just because she's young; she's still a woman."
Just then, Guizhi, who had finished brewing the tea, came out carrying the teapot and overheard Jingzhe's words.
He put down the teapot and asked doubtfully, "Young master, Guizhi is already quite grown up! Besides, what does being young or young have to do with being a woman?"
Jing Zhe glanced at Gui Zhi's flat chest and Chen Mo's undulating figure, clicked his tongue, and then said, "Trust me, you really are young!"
"..."
Jing Zhe's old car started wobbling as it drove off. Although it wasn't going fast, it was still a car.
Guizhi was young and had never been on a bus before, so she looked completely bewildered.
But Chen Mo, whose body had been seen by Jing Zhe, was not so easily fooled. She glared at him fiercely, but in front of Gui Zhi, she was too embarrassed to point it out, so she could only change the subject.
"Even if it's not a man and a woman alone together, it's still inappropriate, isn't it?"
"What's inappropriate about it? I'm a man facing two women, and I'm not afraid of you. What are you afraid of?"
"Of course you're not afraid! What do you have to be afraid of?"
Chen Mo said, panting heavily.
"You don't know this, do you? Boys need to protect themselves when they're out. Why can't I be afraid?"
Seeing Chen Mo pouting and frowning, Jing Zhe found it amusing and said to her, "Didn't Miss Chen say she really wanted to visit our hometown? In our hometown, this kind of thing is very common!"
"Is it common for single men and women to live together?"
Chen Mo said incredulously.
"Hehe, let alone living together, some even have children, then abandon them and run away, living a very carefree life!"
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, Chen Mo and Gui Zhi both gaped wide open.
After a long pause, Chen Mo finally asked, "Is this true?"
Of course! Why would I lie to you?
Seeing the strange look in Chen Mo's eyes, Jing Zhe quickly explained, "These people don't include me! I'm a traditional person!"
Are you traditional?
So traditional that two frail women came to stay at their home?
Who would believe that!
Chen Mo didn't expose him, but just sighed, "Young Master's hometown is truly amazing... As far as I know, in other parts of Anguo, let alone getting pregnant before marriage, even if a woman has an affair with a man before marriage, she will be despised and drowned in a pig cage!"
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe simply shook his head enviously.
Of course, the envy is also on behalf of those brothers who took over the bad debts in later generations. After all, they were taking over debts that had been passed down many times. If it were here, they wouldn't even dare to dream of it!
"So what? I'm just staying here for one night, what could possibly happen?"
"..."
Chen Mo thought for a while and decided that he would take the money tomorrow, go back to Mangshan with him, and then go to Jingzhou.
Thinking about it that way, I felt much better: "Alright, I'll stay here for the night! But let me make this clear beforehand, you're not allowed to come into our room at night!"
"Ha! Miss Chen, you jest. Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Guizhi chimed in, "Yes, Miss, Young Master Kun is upright and honest. He was unmoved even after going to Chunshui Tower, which is truly rare—and you were the one who said it!"
"Look at Guizhi, she knows that. How could I be that kind of person?"
Taking advantage of Guizhi's inattention, Chen Mo glared fiercely at Jing Zhe.
You are who you are!
If you hadn't seen my back completely, I would have actually believed you!
Chen Mo thought bitterly.
When Jing Zhe saw Chen Mo's eyes, which seemed to want to devour him, he immediately understood and scratched his head in embarrassment.
That's all a misunderstanding, okay?
Too lazy to bring it up again, I changed the subject and asked, "Guizhi, we've been busy since this evening, haven't we? It's been a long time."
Guizhi blinked her big eyes, "Yes, I've been busy for a long time."
"You've been busy for so long, you haven't eaten anything, have you?"
"Mmm, we didn't eat either!"
"So this young master is hungry now."
Upon hearing this, Guizhi jumped up excitedly: "Same here, young master! Guizhi is starving too!"
"..."
If this were a fool, Jing Zhe would have slapped him already: "You know you're hungry, why are you still standing here dawdling?"
Never mind, she didn't have any either.
I won't stoop to her level.
What kind of food is served at home?
Guizhi thought for a moment and said, "Miss said she might leave here in the next few days, so I didn't buy much food. Now we only have some noodles, eggs and bok choy left at home."
When you're hungry, you can't care about anything else.
Jing Zhe waved his hand and said, "Noodles it is! Stop dawdling and go cook them. I want to eat your noodles today."
"???"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo and Gui Zhi both looked over.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"
Jing Zhe said matter-of-factly, "When you went to Mangshan, I personally grilled lamb skewers for you. Now that you're in my house, do you expect me to make you noodles?"
"..."
