Chapter 75 I Like You Without Wearing a Mask
Mu Huaian had already given orders that as long as Yu Qinghuan came, there was no need to inform him.
In order to spend New Year's Eve with Yu Qinghuan, Mu Huaian also instructed Xiaowu to paste red words all over the village, hang red lanterns, and prepare a lot of fireworks.
This was the first time that Mu Huaian had mobilized such a large force since arriving at the manor. Xiao Wu was very happy and reported the matter to the Duke and his wife in the capital, saying that his young master had a girl he liked.
As soon as Yu Qinghuan stepped into the manor, she saw Mu Huaian already waiting for her in the yard. Just like when they first met, he was wearing the mask that only covered the right side of his face, but today he was wearing a green robe, which made him look more down-to-earth than usual.
Seeing the figure he had been thinking about day and night, Mu Huaian smiled with his lips curved, and the half of his face that was not blocked by the mask was shining.
Yu Qinghuan's heart was pounding. She couldn't help but quicken her pace, almost running over, hugging his neck. She smelled the familiar agarwood fragrance, and immediately stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek, "Mu Huaian, I missed you."
As she said this, her eyes curved with a smile.
Mu Huaian's empty heart of the past two days was instantly filled, "Me too."
Xiao Wu in the yard, and Sang Ru who followed closely behind, covered their eyes, leaving the yard alone for the two of them.
Seeing that there was no one in the yard, Yu Qinghuan couldn't help but reach out and wanted to take off Mu Huaian's mask, but his hand was held down by Mu Huaian who had already noticed it.
"The mask is uncomfortable, I'll take it off for you."
Mu Huaian smiled and shook his head. He held Yu Qinghuan's hand and said softly, "There are many people in the village. If I take off my mask, they will be scared."
Being afraid of scaring the servants in the manor was only one of the reasons. What Mu Huaian really cared about was that even though Yu Qinghuan had repeatedly said that she didn't care about his face, he still wanted to wear the mask as much as possible so as not to scare Yu Qinghuan.
Hearing this, Yu Qinghuan felt a little distressed. She wanted to restore Mu Huaian's confidence, but she also knew that it could not be done overnight.
"Then let's go inside and I'll take off your mask."
Mu Huaian still smiled and shook his head, "You've come here so many times, and you always stayed in the yard. Today I want to take you around the manor."
Yu Qinghuan frowned, pulled her hand out of Mu Huaian's, and wrapped it around his thin waist, looking up at him expectantly, "But I want you to kiss me."
Mu Huaian's breathing stagnated, and he couldn't help swallowing. His ears felt a little hot, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Later..."
Yu Qinghuan tightened her grip around his waist, "I want it now."
She stared at the man in front of her, her red lips slightly parted, like a fairy, as if to seduce people.
Mu Huaian's Adam's apple rolled, heat rose to his face, his heart beat rapidly, and he unconsciously thought of the fire avoidance map he studied that night, "But it's still daytime."
Seeing that he did not refuse.
Yu Qinghuan suddenly laughed, stepped away from him, grabbed his hand and ran into the house.
The moment she stepped into the house, she hooked her fingertips around Mu Huaian's belt, sniffed the agarwood on his body, and fastened the bolt of the door with her free hand.
Before Mu Huaian could react, Yu Qinghuan pushed him to sit on the door panel.
Yu Qinghuan took the opportunity to untie the straps of the mask and took it off his face.
The daylight was very bright, and he subconsciously turned his face to avoid Yu Qinghuan's sight, restraining himself from looking at her.
But looking at Mu Huaian like this, Yu Qinghuan felt a feeling that she couldn't even describe in her heart.
Perhaps it was because he had been with Xie Zhili for too long that he picked up his bad habits.
Yu Qinghuan wanted to torment Mu Huaian and see him begging for help in a desperate situation.
After half an hour, the door was suddenly knocked, startling the two people in the room.
"Madam! Something bad has happened!"
...
In the palace.
Xie Zhili had just exchanged pleasantries with the prince, sat down and drank two glasses of wine when he saw Qing Zhui stumbling over.
Qing Zhui's face was pale and his voice was panicked, "Master, this is bad!"
Xie Zhili frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"
Qing Zhui looked around, bent down and whispered something in Xie Zhili's ear.
Xie Zhili's face turned visibly pale, and the hand holding the wine glass almost crushed it!
Xiao Jinghe, who was standing by, noticed his expression and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
Xie Zhili tried his best to hide his ugly expression and whispered to Xiao Jinghe, "Your Highness, I have something important to attend to at home. Can I please excuse myself?"
Xiao Jinghe was a little unhappy. He had not met Cheng Gongjin today, but he still agreed.
Xie Zhili had never been so rude before, so it must be an important matter.
Leaving the palace, Xie Zhili's pace became faster and faster, while asking Qing Zhui who was following closely beside him, "When did this happen!?"
Qing Zhui: "Last night!"
Xie Zhili: "Why did someone only come today to report what happened last night?"
Qing Zhui gritted his teeth, "The old lady silenced everyone in the mansion. It was only when the carriage left the mansion today that we saw it!"
Xie Zhili's face turned ashen and he felt cold. He didn't even get in the carriage, but just pulled the horse and hurried out of Beijing in the cold wind.
Yu Qinghuan, you have to wait for me.
...
At this time, Mu Family Zhuangzi,
Hearing the knock on the door, the two of them walked out of the house dressed neatly, with a blush still on Mu Huaian's face.
Yu Qinghuan frowned and looked at the panicked Sang Ru, "What's wrong?"
Sang Ru hesitated to speak, glanced at Mu Huaian, hesitated, and finally leaned close to Yu Qinghuan's ear and whispered a few words.
Yu Qinghuan's whole body stiffened, and the back of her neck felt cold. She clutched her sleeves tightly, and her throat felt like it was filled with a ball of wet cotton. "How... How is it possible..."
