Chapter 333 Can You Like Me?
"Please take your time, everyone."
"Thank you for your hospitality, Frost King."
"You're too kind, everyone."
At the entrance of the Frost King's Mansion, after seeing off several women, Xiao Mo couldn't help but rub the corner of his eye.
These women were all wives and daughters of Qin Huo, the King of Yan.
Because Xiao Mo was so famous, many women wanted to meet him, but Xiao Mo did not attend any banquets, so they asked their husbands or fathers to ask the Yan King for help.
The Flame King then found Xiao Mo.
Yan Wang had given Xiao Mo a lot of support, and Xiao Mo felt that Yan Wang was indeed a good person. He estimated that they would have a lot of interaction in the future, so Xiao Mo couldn't refuse and had no choice but to meet these ladies.
to be honest.
In Xiao Mo's opinion, dealing with these young ladies and wives was more tiring than fighting on the front lines himself.
After seeing them off, Xiao Mo returned to his residence and continued reading a spear manual.
Not long ago, Yan Wang told Xiao Mo that Xiao Mo's new appointment would be coming soon, and that this appointment would be very important, so Xiao Mo should be prepared.
Xiao Mo didn't know what Yan Wang meant by "not simple".
But Xiao Mo felt that whatever the appointment, he should just do his job well.
Just as Xiao Mo was intently studying the gun manual, Qin Siyao walked into the courtyard.
"Siyao, you're here." Xiao Mo looked up, glanced at Qin Siyao, and then continued reading his book.
Xiao Mo was already used to Qin Siyao coming to his residence. He even told his maids that the princess could freely enter and leave the Shuangwang residence without needing to announce her arrival.
Therefore, the Frost King's Mansion was like Qin Siyao's own residence.
"Mmm," Qin Siyao responded, then sat down next to Xiao Mo, her voice a little nervous, "I...I made some pastries, do you think they're good?"
"Thanks." Xiao Mo nodded, picked up a mung bean cake, took a bite, and said, "It's quite delicious."
"If it's delicious, then eat more." Qin Siyao poured Xiao Mo a glass of water.
"Um."
Xiao Mo nodded and continued eating his pastries while looking at the gun manual.
However, as he ate, Xiao Mo noticed something was wrong.
He looked up at the girl beside him and asked with a smile, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"I...I wasn't looking at you," Qin Siyao shook her head. "Besides, how would you know I was looking at you if you weren't looking at me?"
Xiao Mo: "."
Ignoring Qin Siyao, Xiao Mo continued to look at the gun manual in his hand.
Qin Siyao, however, continued to stare at him with her eyes wide open.
It seems like Qin Siyao could look at Xiao Mo for a lifetime, and she would never get tired of it.
"Are you really alright?" Xiao Mo asked, looking up again.
"What could possibly be wrong with me?" Qin Siyao put her legs together, placed her small hands on her thighs, and shook her head.
"Alright."
Xiao Mo didn't ask any more questions.
Putting down the spear manual, Xiao Mo seemed to have a sudden inspiration. He took out his spear and began practicing spear techniques, trying to master them.
Qin Siyao remained seated on the stone bench, watching.
"The princess's illness is called 'Heart's Devotion'."
"The only remedy is called 'Growing Old Together'."
"Your Highness, have you fallen for Xiao Mo?"
Looking at the man wielding a long spear in front of her, and recalling what Sister Peanut had said to her, Qin Siyao's eyes were slightly dazed.
"Am I falling for him?"
Is this what it feels like to like someone?
"Have I really fallen for Xiao Mo?"
Qin Siyao lowered her head, her small hands unconsciously pressing against her heaving heart. She felt her heart beating faster and faster, and a beautiful blush rose on her cheeks.
"Siyao, are you really alright?"
After practicing his marksmanship twice, Xiao Mo stepped forward and looked at the girl in front of him.
Siyao is usually not this quiet.
"I'm really fine."
Qin Siyao shook her head vigorously.
After a while, Qin Siyao timidly raised her head, her fair fingers intertwined, and asked Xiao Mo, "Xiao Mo, when I came here just now, I saw many women in your residence. Who are they?"
"Oh, they are some wives and daughters of Yan Wang's friends. They've always wanted to see me, and since Yan Wang found me, I couldn't refuse him." Xiao Mo said truthfully, "Is that what you're thinking about?"
"No, that's not it at all," Qin Siyao turned her head away. "I was just thinking, what if you take a fancy to some girl and get bewitched? If that happens, I won't be able to come and play with you anymore."
"Hehehe." Xiao Mo chuckled. "Not at the moment."
Hearing Xiao Mo's answer, Qin Siyao secretly glanced at him: "Why not? You're already of marriageable age, you should be getting married by now. So many people are asking you for marriage, don't you really have any women you like?"
“There really isn’t one.” Xiao Mo put away his spear, sat down next to Qin Siyao, and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Aren't those women good enough? I think they're all quite pretty." Qin Siyao felt a strange sense of happiness.
"It's not that it's bad, it's just that it doesn't feel right for me," Xiao Mo said, shaking his head.
"Not suitable for you? Then what kind of woman do you like?" Qin Siyao asked curiously, but she felt a strange tension in her heart when she asked this question.
What kind?
Xiao Mo thought for a moment and answered casually.
"First of all, you must be good to my mother and be well-educated and reasonable."
Secondly, you should have an outgoing personality and not keep everything bottled up inside, otherwise it will be tiring.
Furthermore, she should be considerate, preferably a woman I know well, not someone I marry through arranged marriage.
Finally, they also need to be good-looking.
Sitting to the side, Qin Siyao listened attentively to Xiao Mo's words, counting on her fingers as she carefully memorized them.
"Xiao Mo, what do you think of my treatment of Aunt Zhou?" Qin Siyao asked, looking up.
"That's great." Xiao Mo smiled. "My mother said that you often visit her over the years and bring her lots of delicious food. My mother likes you very much."
A gentle joy welled up in the girl's heart, like a sweet spring flowing through her: "Xiao Mo, do you think I have a cheerful personality? Am I well-mannered and knowledgeable?"
"She's quite cheerful and well-mannered." Xiao Mo nodded.
"Xiao Mo, do you think I'm considerate?" the girl continued to ask.
"You're so considerate. Back then, when your eldest and second eldest brothers gave me gifts, it was you who came to my rescue."
"Xiao Mo, are we acquainted?"
"Of course, we've known each other since we were six years old."
"Xiao Mo, do you think I'm good-looking?"
“Of course she’s beautiful. I heard about Siyao’s reputation even when I was fighting in Wei.”
"That Xiao Mo"
The girl raised her head and blinked at the man beside her.
"Can you like me?"
