Her heart tightened, and she immediately sank back into the water, her eyes warily watching her surroundings, but she remained silent.
If the other party has simply wandered into this place by mistake, or if they have ill intentions towards her, then by making a sound, she is essentially giving them her exact location.
She won't do that kind of self-sacrifice!
"Where are you? I picked all the flowers you wanted for you. You...you really will be with me? Don't lie to me!"
As Liu Zhuzi's honest and rough voice drew closer, Mo Qianshang felt a chill run down her spine.
Good heavens, I wonder which heartless person tricked Liu Zhuzi. They've only been here a short time, and they're already asking Liu Zhuzi to find pretty wildflowers to give away; it's a bit much to ask of him.
However, the situation is even more difficult for Mo Qianshang now.
She was almost certain that Liu Zhuzi had been tricked into coming here.
This incident, where Liu Zhuzi was caught taking a bath and then found holding flowers, suggests that the person behind it all probably wanted to pair her up with Liu Zhuzi.
Hearing Liu Zhuzi's footsteps getting closer, Mo Qianshang shrank back a little more into the water.
She hesitated, wondering whether she should pick up a stone from the water and knock Liu Zhuzi unconscious.
But she was also worried that someone was watching her from behind, and that once she got out of the water, that person would jump out and accuse her of having an affair with Liu Zhuzi.
In this way, even if she had absolute strength, she would find it difficult to stop the villagers' gossip.
She couldn't very well beat up everyone in the village and then threaten them not to talk about it...
Just as she was getting agitated, a pure white figure streaked across the sky, descending like a celestial being from the heavens, followed by a muffled thud.
The sound was similar to a heavy object falling to the ground.
"Young master in white, is that you?" Mo Qianshang hadn't dared to speak earlier because the other person wasn't on his side.
But if the other person is dressed in white, then she won't need to use so many.
She had an inexplicable sense of trust in the white-clad figure.
With a swift chop, Qin Baiyi knocked Liu Zhuzi unconscious, and hesitated, stopping in place.
Recalling that when she used her lightness skill to fly over earlier, she inadvertently noticed that Mo Qianshang's clothes seemed to be soaked with water, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Just as he was struggling with his inner turmoil, Mo Qianshang's cold voice rang out again.
"Young master in white, if it's convenient for you, could you please have Yu Ya bring me some more clothes?"
As soon as he asked the question, Mo Qianshang remembered that Qin Yuya was in the toilet at the moment, and that she was not a baby. He doubted that it would be appropriate for a grown man to call her, so he immediately changed his mind.
"Excuse me, I suddenly remembered that the little girl is a bit inconvenienced. How about... you go and get my clothes for me? It's the bundle next to Heming."
"You don't need to search through it, just take the bundle back."
If she weren't unsure whether someone was watching her, Mo Qianshang wouldn't have gone through all this trouble. She had money on her; she could have just bought a traditional-style outfit from the mall.
She sighed inwardly and vowed that once she got out of the water, she would give the person behind her a good beating.
The bamboo shoots on the mountain have probably all been taken by the other party. She just wanted to take a bath, but they wouldn't even let her have a moment's peace!
"Hmm." After hesitating for a while, Qin Baiyi finally decided to help Mo Qianshang.
He had seen through the trick before him; it was nothing more than an attempt to expose Mu Moqianshang's innocence.
But right now, Mo Qianshang has to take care of four children, and considering their future development, Mo Qianshang, as their mother, can't have any major stains on her record, lest the children be criticized in the future.
With that in mind, Qin Baiyi turned back quickly with a dark face, not forgetting to grab Liu Zhuzi with one hand and carry him back.
This person cannot stay here.
Just like Mo Qianshang, he was also worried that there were other people secretly observing them.
It has to be said that having martial arts skills is a good thing. Even without using lightness skills, the business quickly received her baggage containing clothes.
To prevent any unexpected problems from arising, Qin Baiyi stayed by Mo Qianshang's side until she finished dressing.
But Mo Qianshang thought the other person had already left, and worried that her outer clothes would get wet, so she hurriedly came out wearing only her inner clothes.
Unexpectedly, they bumped into Qin Baiyi, who was so startled that he quickly turned around.
"You, what's wrong with you!"
For the first time, Mo Qianshang could hear the tension and anxiety in Qin Baiyi's words, and she also saw the tips of his ears turn red at an extremely fast speed.
She's strangely cute.
Thinking this, Mo Qianchang suddenly felt a mischievous urge and deliberately pinched her throat to scold him.
"You're asking me why you didn't go back after delivering the clothes?"
"I..." Qin Baiyi was clearly in the right, but at this moment he felt a little guilty and blurted out, "I was just worried that there were still people around."
"Then you could have told me. It's wrong of you not to say anything." Mo Qianshang was putting on her coat quickly while being unreasonable, and she couldn't suppress the slight upturn of her lips.
"I...I'm sorry." Qin Baiyi stammered, a rare occurrence for him. Hearing that Mo Qianshang was already dressed and walking in his direction, he used his lightness skill to leave first.
Watching the white robes fluttering in the wind, Mo Qianshang's smile became even brighter.
This man doesn't seem as rigid and annoying as I imagined.
After the brief interlude, Mo Qianshang's expression returned to its usual aloofness as she quickly walked to where her little daughter was using the restroom.
Finding no one there, he panicked and used his lightness skill to rush back.
When she saw her little girl playing with Dahua, a huge weight was finally lifted from her heart.
But in order to make the little girl understand the seriousness of the matter, she still deliberately put on a stern face and went forward.
"Yu Ya, can you tell your mother why you left without telling her?"
"Didn't Mother tell me to leave first? And she even sent Da Hua to take me back, saying that with Da Hua there, it would be safe." Qin Yuya looked at Mo Qianshang with a puzzled expression, her soft voice filled with deep grievance.
Upon hearing this, Mo Qianshang instinctively wanted to say that she had never said that.
Worried that Qin Yuya, who is always sensitive, might overthink things and be frightened, he quickly changed his words.
"It's my mistake. You continue playing with Da Hua. I suddenly remembered that I forgot to bring my clothes, so I'll go over there again."
After walking a few steps, Mo Qianshang waved to Qin Heming from the direction where Qin Yuya was facing away, and Qin Heming immediately ran over.
"Mother, what happened?" Qin Heming frowned like a little adult, his voice, still childish, already showing a hint of seriousness.
"It's nothing serious. Mother just needs to figure some things out. Keep an eye on your sister so she doesn't get fooled by others."
After saying this, Mo Qianshang recounted how someone had imitated his voice and tricked Qin Yuya.
Qin Heming frowned even more upon hearing this, and solemnly made his promise.
"Mother, just go and do your things. I will take good care of my younger brothers and sisters."
"Okay, then thank you for your hard work."
Mo Qianshang patted Qin Heming's shoulder with a smile, but the moment she turned around, the smile vanished, replaced by a cold and murderous aura.
She wasn't afraid of being schemed against; she could even let it go easily, but...
Children are her Achilles' heel!
