Chapter 141 Confusion
Luo Bai had already noticed his movements and thought something was wrong. "Your Highness? Are you drunk?" This was purely a concerned question.
Upon hearing his voice, Mo Linyuan instantly snapped back to reality, his empty eyes regained focus, his tightly clenched hands loosened, he looked up at Luo Bai, and then shook his head, "No." He stood up and walked out.
Luo Bai was puzzled, and neither he nor Feng Qingge knew what had happened. They both thought he was really drunk and was going out to sober up, so they didn't pay any attention.
The banquet had been going on for a long time, but Mo Linyuan had not yet returned. However, no one cared, because everyone knew the Regent's temperament. He would come if he wanted to, and he wouldn't even say hello if he didn't want to.
While with Feng Qingjue, Feng Qingge gradually drank quite a bit of wine, and her cheeks became flushed. Feng Qingjue was worried about her, so he told her to go out and sober up before coming back.
Feng Qingge felt a little dizzy, so she listened to him and left the hall, heading towards the small pavilion outside.
A gentle breeze was blowing, which was very pleasant. Although the road was not far, it felt like Feng Qingge had walked a very long way.
However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there was already someone in the pavilion. The person was dressed in a black robe, and the gold-trimmed belt shimmered in the moonlight, making him easily noticeable.
However, Feng Qingge squinted her eyes, and the more she looked at this person, the more familiar he seemed. She slowly walked over and took a look.
Sure enough, it was Mo Linyuan. His clothes were unique, so she recognized him at a glance.
"Mo Linyuan, what are you doing?" The two stared at each other for a while. Feng Qingge thought he was scared by her. His obsidian-like eyes were staring intently at her, which was quite intimidating.
"..." Mo Linyuan didn't speak, he just stared at her with a strange and cold gaze, as if he wasn't looking at her at all.
"Hey, I'm asking you a question!" After drinking a bit, Feng Qingge became bolder. The more he remained silent, the more excited she became. So she reached out and tried to push Mo Lin's shoulder.
However, just as her hand reached out to Mo Linyuan, before it even touched his clothes, he grabbed it and held her wrist.
He used a lot of force, and with a sudden jerk, Feng Qingge cried out, "Ouch, be gentle, it hurts!" Her drunken voice had no power at all, sounding like a cat scratching her.
Holding her wrist, Mo Linyuan slowly stood up, his eyes still fixed on her without moving.
The tall figure slowly approached, like a dark cloud looming overhead, causing Feng Qingge to involuntarily take a step back.
"W-what?" Feng Qingge stammered, looking at Mo Linyuan's dark face with hazy eyes.
However, the icy man remained silent, pressing closer step by step, and grabbing her wrist to pull her closer, leaving her no way to retreat.
The two were very close, like conjoined twins. Mo Linyuan looked down at the person who was almost in his arms, somewhat stunned. He himself did not know why he was so angry, and even wanted to interrogate her.
Taking advantage of his momentary daze, Feng Qingge finally managed to escape his oppressive aura. However, although she managed to separate herself from him, she had nowhere left to retreat; behind her were the stone pillars supporting the pavilion.
Mo Linyuan held her wrist, so she couldn't back away at all, and could only separate a little bit, but that was just right, so that neither of them would feel awkward.
He raised his hand and pressed it against the pillar behind her, trapping her in his arms. With his other hand, he pulled her, leaving her no way to escape.
This situation left Feng Qingge dumbfounded. This position... this position is so damn awkward!
