Chapter 442: News Has Arrived
Mo Lang hadn't knelt for a long time, but Lu Qingqing wouldn't allow it.
It's quite unsettling to see him kneel down like that.
"What did you do wrong?" Qiaoxiu asked, coming closer.
Her eyes scanned Mo Lang like radar, then she glared at him and said fiercely, "You haven't been hooking up with another woman, have you?! You dare to cheat on Qing Yao!"
"..."
"Qiaoxiu, speak properly," Lu Qingqing scolded.
"We are now leaders of a prestigious university; we must be civilized people."
"oh."
Lu Qingqing then looked at Mo Lang, signaling him to speak.
"Please ask Miss Qiaoxiu to leave," Mo Lang said coldly.
"Hey, you did it and you're afraid people will hear about it?"
Lu Qingqing spoke again: "Qiaoxiu, you go out first."
Qiaoxiu reluctantly went out the door, then leaned against the door to eavesdrop. A dart flew towards her, hitting the tip of her nose right away. It was just two inches away from giving her an extra nostril.
Qiaoxiu stomped her foot in anger and left.
"You stinky Mo Lang, if you dare to cheat on Qing Yao, I'll make you suffer from itching powder for the rest of your life!"
Inside the room, Mo Lang finally spoke.
He said that he was the one who made Qingyao lose her innocence that day, not Jin Duoduo.
"Holy crap! You're a beast!" Lu Qingqing exclaimed in utter astonishment.
Mo Lang lay on the ground, too ashamed to raise his head.
For some reason, I even managed to think of the phrase: "Civilization?"
“You did that, fine, but you arrested him like that,” Lu Qingqing said again.
? ? ? ?
What kind of punishment should they receive?
Did he arrest him at that time?
Mo Lang pressed his forehead against the cold ground, unable to recall where he had grabbed randomly in his dazed state.
"I was wondering why Qingyao wasn't so sad; it turns out it was you." Lu Qingqing nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that Qingyao really does like Molang.
Ah, the little darling she thought she had grown up has actually grown up, and right under her nose, she was chewed up by her own dog.
Lu Qingqing was still angry: "Mo Lang, you really deserve to die! Even if Qingyao was delirious from the Gu poison at the time, you should have restrained yourself and taken her to me to remove the Gu poison. How could you take advantage of her in her vulnerable state!"
Mo Lang offered no explanation.
Anyway, he was already prepared to die.
“Master…” he said in a low voice.
"I know my sins are grave, and I am willing to pay with my life."
Princess Qingyao's whereabouts are currently unknown. My guess is that she has probably discovered her true identity and is unable to face it, so she has gone into hiding.
Ask your master to send someone to search for her, and then lie to her that you can test her bloodline to know her blood relation, and tell her that she and her subordinates are not related.
"Your subordinate, immediately commit suicide to atone for your sins and disappear forever."
He drew his knife.
"Stop!" Lu Qingqing kicked the knife out of his hand.
Looking at his zombie makeup and his handsome face looking utterly lifeless, he was truly pitiful.
She knew Mo Lang well; he wasn't a womanizer.
Thinking about it carefully, something else must have happened between Mo Lang and Qing Yao. For example, why did Qing Yao leave first, and why did she show no aversion to Mo Lang after waking up?
Who would be caught so badly and still like that beast?
Isn't that just asking for trouble?
Furthermore, Mo Lang suspects Qing Yao is his sister, so how could he do such a thing?
"You still won't tell me the truth? Did you really do it? Why did you scratch her until she was covered in blood?"
Blood?
He didn't!
He's absolutely certain about that!
There was no blood on his fingernails.
If it's not him, then it must be Jin Duoduo!
At that time, Jin Duoduo was doing something bad. He killed the person, but he didn't dare to look at her for long. He tilted his head and helped her put on her clothes, then wrapped them in his coat.
I couldn't see it clearly at all!
How hateful! If he had known earlier, he would never have let that bastard die so easily!
“It was Jin Duoduo who scratched me… I ruined my innocence… I… was poisoned by Jin Duoduo…”
Mo Lang ultimately did not reveal that he had been forced by Qing Yao.
Besides not wanting to damage Princess Qingyao's reputation, she also felt somewhat ashamed.
Lu Qingqing understood.
I knew this innocent little dog wasn't a scoundrel taking advantage of someone in distress, much less a sadist.
"Alright, stop talking about death all the time. Go and find Qingyao for me."
There's no basis for the claim of siblings; further investigation is needed.
Even if we can't find it in the end, I can make some tools, it'll be a hassle, and we can get it through a blood test."
Mo Lang suddenly raised his dejected head, and his eyes regained some vitality.
"Is Master serious?"
"real."
Fake!
She can only test whether two blood types are compatible, but she can't test whether they are related by blood; that would require a DNA test.
Anyway, she would never let the two of them die. If she couldn't find out the truth, she would just lie or break them up.
Lu Qingqing ordered Mo Lang to go find someone.
Qingyao has lived in the deep palace for a long time and has few friends. The only close friend she has is Shen Jingshu, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister.
"Qingyao and Shen Jingshu are friends. Ask her if she knows."
That day, Qingyao asked her to help Shen Jingshu. She had written a letter to Ji Ruyan explaining the matter, and later he replied that Ji Canglin and the Empress did not take Shen Jingshu with them when they ran away.
He had someone release Shen Jingshu back into the Shen family, without angering the women of the Shen family.
As for the prime minister, he has already been imprisoned as a traitor.
Lu Qingqing thought that when Qingyao returned to the capital, she would definitely visit her only friend, and perhaps she could find out something from her.
Mo Lang accepted the order and left.
Lu Qingqing shouted at Qiaoxiu, who was peeking in, "Get in here."
"Hehe...Sis, that stinks..."
After being glared at by Lu Qingqing, she quickly changed her tune: "Mo Lang, what bad thing did Mo Lang do?"
"You didn't do anything wrong. Compared to how you spray itching powder on people all day, your sin is much lighter."
"He made a big deal out of it, tsk, that scared me."
"Tell me, how much does Qingyao like Molang?"
"How much do I like it? I like it so much that I dream about it all day long, just like you, nibbling on my neck..."
Lu Qingqing: "...Get lost."
If she had known their relationship would be so short, she should have cherished it longer.
I don't want to think about it anymore.
Lu Qingqing got up and went to the school.
The students she recruits have varying talents, so she needs to further divide them into classes based on their learning aptitude in order to improve the efficiency of their training.
She hid outside the classroom, transforming into the ruthless headmistress of the Abbess of Extinction, and picked out the little mice—one by one—who were dozing off, daydreaming, winking, or lying on their desks.
"Sleepy, are you? From now on, you'll stand and listen to the lectures for a month!"
"Distracted? What were you thinking about? The chicken legs in the cafeteria, weren't you? You were drooling! You're not allowed to eat meat for three days!"
"What were you two exchanging glances and signals with just now? Were you trying to find a time to discuss the questions while the teacher turned around?"
"Memorize this entire 'Compendium of Materia Medica' in three days!"
"What were you doing lying down like that? Are you getting lazy for your age?"
"Hmph, you five, I'll give you a test in a month. Whoever fails will have to clean the academy for a month!"
Lu Qingqing grabbed them all at once, scaring a group of little ones into turning into quails, their hands folded together, their feet together, sitting like bamboo shoots.
Even the teacher couldn't help but stretch his shoulders, afraid that if he hunched over, he would be criticized for "not standing properly".
Lu Qingqing nodded and went to the next class.
The next class is learning to read.
A slender figure, dressed in a loose Confucian robe, stood by the window, reading the "Hundred Family Surnames" in a gentle voice.
This is a young scholar who was invited here. His family has fallen on hard times, and he has spent all his remaining savings to treat his mother's illness.
In the end, he went to the medical school and cured his mother's illness. To repay the kindness, he stayed on as a teacher.
His appearance from behind was quite different from Ji Ruyan's when they first met, and his voice was also different.
But that slight resemblance in their slender figures sent a pang of pain through Lu Qingqing.
She turned around abruptly, clutching the purse that could never be cleaned again.
Ji Ruyan, where are you...?
No matter how well you arrange things, it's not as reliable as having you personally support me.
If you are alive, give me a signal. Even if you are in the abyss or stuck in a narrow crevice, I will eventually pull you up.
As long as... you're alive.
"Little sister—little sister—"
Lu Yun waved and ran over.
"We have news! We have news!"
