Ling Jingyu looked up at Mo Yunzhao in surprise.
Nie You was completely stunned. He first looked at Mo Yunzhao, then at Ling Jingyu, and then his gaze fell on the jade pendant with the shape of a purple grape on Ling Jingyu's waist.
It really blossomed...and bore fruit?
Mo Yunzhao pointed to the small bamboo bed in the room, "I sleep on the bed, and he sleeps on the floor. That's what my sister said."
Nie You felt like a wooden doll, stiffly raising his head to look at Ling Jingyu.
Ling Jingyu smiled and nodded, "That's settled then."
Nie You, somewhat bewildered, uttered two confused "eh" sounds, then readily agreed.
"Lord, Lord, we've seen a ghost!"
Mo Yunzhao had just stood up when Fu Liu rushed in, "Little devil, city lord, the little devil is here."
Mo Yunzhao was about to speak when he saw a handsome little boy already standing at the door.
Those clear, bright eyes stared straight at her.
She looked familiar. "You..."
The little boy stepped across the threshold and obediently called out, "Witch Sister."
Ling Jingyu raised his peach blossom eyes and looked at the little boy indifferently.
"It's you."
Mo Yunzhao knew who he was, but she never expected that after washing up and changing his clothes, the little boy would be so handsome.
If they grow up, they will surely become extraordinary talents.
She frowned. "What are you doing here?"
Before the little boy could answer, Fu Liu had already started chattering away.
Anyway, the little boy was hiding there, carrying a box of supplies for the villagers, and he came along.
As for why he wasn't noticed, it's because he fell asleep shortly after lying down in the box.
It was while Fu Liu was organizing supplies, planning to send them out tomorrow, that she discovered the little boy.
The little boy looked up and stared intently at Mo Yunzhao, "Sister enchantress, I want to go with you."
Mo Yunzhao rebuked in a deep voice, "Nonsense! This is a plague village. You're just throwing your life away here."
The little boy shrugged. "Anyway, now that I'm in, it's not easy for me to leave. I'm sticking with Sister Witch."
The plague-stricken village was almost impossible to leave once you entered.
Ling Jingyu, his eyes sparkling with admiration, stared at the little boy. "What's your name?"
The little boy tilted his head and looked Ling Jingyu up and down. "Brother-in-law, you're so handsome. My name is Long Ye."
Ling Jingyu immediately smiled broadly, "You'll stay. Your brother-in-law will protect you."
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Long Ye immediately snuggled up next to Ling Jingyu, afraid that Mo Yunzhao would drive him away.
Mo Yunzhao stared at Long Ye's youthful yet handsome face, somewhat incredulous, "You...you're called Long Ye?"
Long Ye nodded, "Yes, Sister Demoness."
Mo Yunzhao stared at his face for a long time, and as he looked, he realized that this face was extremely similar to another face.
Long Ye was her right-hand man in her past life; they went to the battlefield together and faced life and death together.
At that time, Ling Yongnian was very jealous of him, and they argued about him many times.
After the argument, Ling Yongnian gave in, saying that he could accept anything for her...
When they finally unified the world, the two had another argument over Long Ye.
This time, she was forced to choose between the two of them.
She chose Ling Yongnian because Long Ye had said he loved her.
Looking back now, I realize that Ling Yongnian gradually eroded her power.
Mo Yunzhao looked up and saw Ling Jingyu feeding Long Ye fruit; the two looked like good brothers.
She wanted to ask him if he wasn't afraid that Long Ye would try to take her away from him in the future.
But then I thought, Long Ye is just a little boy now, and he's been given a second chance at life. Who knows what the outcome will be?
