Chapter 115 Kiss
Speaking of the eldest daughter of the Shen family, Xu Shuyao couldn't help but pay more attention to Xiao Mo's expression.
He looked calm at this moment, as if he was not surprised by this.
That was the person he had been engaged to since childhood. Thinking back to the day when Ruan brought Shen Jingshu to visit the Duke's Mansion, the prince left casually at the door of Songhe Hall.
Could it be that he already knew the other person's character?
That was a woman who had even harmed her own brother, and it seemed like she was being targeted as well.
She frowned and looked at him, then heard Xiao Mo say again: "I told Shen Shaoyu when I left today, and told him not to mention you when he goes back."
Xu Shuyao was stunned for a moment, then bowed politely: "Shuyao thanks you very much, my Lord!"
"It's just... even if it wasn't this incident, she would have hated me." She paused and quickly added.
It was the person in front of me who caused me this love affair, and I was innocently implicated. I have to let him know!
The young lady looked at him for a long time, squeezing out something, as if she was calculating something.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Mo asked with a raised smile.
Seeing that he still had the heart to laugh, Xu Shuyao said angrily, "Maybe it's because of you, my Lord!"
"Oh...what does this have to do with me?" Xiao Mo asked back, but his expression seemed happy.
"How can there be no connection? What was the prince's intention in letting me in and saying those words outside Songhe Hall that day? And who was the person standing behind the door in the Shen Mansion when you came to talk to me?" Xu Shuyao asked questions in rapid succession, settling both new and old grudges.
Xiao Mo seemed to be stumped by her question and couldn't help but touch his nose.
Or, there is one more.
When the two of them left the palace that day, someone followed them secretly. It was only after he asked the guards to check that he found out that the person was from the Second Prince's palace.
"What did she do?" Xiao Mo asked quickly, his eyes becoming extremely sharp.
"It's okay now, but who knows what will happen in the future? She is looking at me with malice." Xu Shuyao said this with some emotion and seemed angry.
Xiao Mo looked at her quietly. After talking for a while, the young lady seemed to be tired of standing, so she reached out and held onto the corner of the stone bench.
The moonlight faintly shrouded her body, making her figure appear even more delicate and graceful.
What's more, her beautiful eyes were filled with sorrow and resentment, and her lips were pursed to a bright red.
Xiao Mo lowered his eyes and twirled his fingers. After a while, he said, "You do have some merits in being hated."
Xu Shuyao, tired from standing, felt her feet go numb and her mind was a little confused. She leaned forward and asked, "What do you mean?"
The other person smiled and shook his head, but reached out to help her.
"Do you think Luo Yanjin is good?" His voice was very soft.
Xu Shuyao was stunned when she jumped onto it. Although the man was smiling, his eyes were gloomy.
Moreover, the two of them were too close to each other at this moment, and she could even feel the other's breath on her face.
Xu Shuyao suddenly realized that this topic was a bit dangerous, "It's too late, I..."
Before she could finish her words, Xiao Mo had already brought her into his arms. The man then lowered his head and kissed her without question.
Xu Shuyao felt a strong arm holding her waist, and she couldn't move at all.
She gasped and wanted to scream, but her breath was taken away by the man's lips and tongue.
The faint aroma of tea enveloped her, and her head was buzzing. She wanted to break free but couldn't.
Xiao Mo was a little awkward at first, but gradually, he turned into a steady hunter, teasing and never getting tired of it.
Seeing that she couldn't break free, Xu Shuyao simply relaxed her body, and the other person's kiss gradually became gentler.
She took this opportunity to bite the corner of the other person's lips.
Xiao Mo seemed stunned for a moment.
She finally pushed away the man who was holding her and stepped back a few steps.
The moonlight was dim, illuminating the man's face and a streak of blood on his lips.
Xu Shuyao's eyes turned red with anger, "You bastard!"
Then she turned around and walked into the house, and saw that Qiao Wei had already gotten up and was looking at her master with a worried look on her face.
Xu Shuyao wiped her face and found that it was wet with tears.
She didn't wipe it off, but instead went into the curtain with her back to her maid.
Qiao Wei behind him hurriedly closed the door.
But what can we do if we close it?
Xu Shuyao suddenly realized sadly that as long as she lived in this Duke's Mansion, she could not avoid Xiao Mo.
The small gate of Jiyunzhai could not stop him, and the door of the wing room inside could not stop him even more.
Such people are destined to be able to pick up everything they want at will.
And Luo Yanjin, who seems to meet the requirements for marriage, is probably just an illusion.
The other party is Xiao Mo's subordinate, and he will not let him succeed.
The young lady with tears on her face thought of a thousand ways to escape, but found herself like a trapped beast, unable to move forward.
After Xu Shuyao left, Xiao Mo sat on the stone bench outside the door for a while.
He heard the other person enter the house and heard the door of Jiyunzhai slowly close.
The blood on his lips dried up after a while, but he didn't pay any attention to it. He looked a little funny.
Wuying hid in the dark and saw the prince looking at him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Mo sat for a while, but finally left.
Qiao Wei in the room didn't dare to sleep. She observed secretly and was about to go in to tell her master the news, but she saw Xu Shuyao leaning on the inside of the bed, as if she was already asleep.
Qiao Wei felt a little puzzled, so she did not disturb her. Instead, she went into the ear room and lay back on the bed.
As Xu Shuyao's maid, she naturally hoped that her master would stay in the mansion.
The Duke's Mansion is a wealthy and powerful family, and the old lady in the mansion is kind to others. Both the Duke and the Duchess are good people.
But... the prince has taken a fancy to the master.
This is a troublesome matter.
The two have such a huge difference in status that the girl would definitely not agree to be someone's concubine.
But with the prince blocking her way, the girl might not be able to get married properly.
What should I do?
A few days ago, Qiao Wei saw Xu Shuyao focusing all her efforts on Mr. Luo, and she felt happy.
Mr. Luo and the girl are a perfect match. After they get married, they may not become rich, but they will have no worries about food and clothing.
Now it seems that all our efforts have been in vain?
The next morning, Xu Shuyao got up as usual.
Huixiang was sleeping so soundly that she had no idea what happened last night.
Seeing Qiao Wei holding a wet towel to help Xu Shuyao apply facial mask, she asked curiously, "What's wrong with your eyes, young lady? I remember that you didn't drink much water last night."
Xu Shuyao didn't say anything, so Qiao Wei said, "I think it was a dream."
When she said this, Nanny Zheng also looked over and said, "Miss, are you dreaming again? Let's ask the kitchen to make some calming tea later!"
Xu Shuyao washed up, had breakfast, and then applied a cool towel to her body for a while.
Seeing that she looked a little unwell, Qiao Wei helped her put on some powder, a little rouge, and even some on her lips.
Then he said, "It looks much better this way."
Xu Shuyao was manipulated by her the whole time without saying a word. After she was done, she took her maid to the courtyard of Director Wang.
