ch 216 – Plotted Against By The Relatives; An Attack At Midnight (1)
“I…..” Mo Xuanzun looked disturbed. After hesitating for a long while, he finally said with a bitter smile, “Shi mei Gong, I wasn’t able to see it clearly!”
“Wasn’t able to see it clearly?”
Gong Zixuan raised her browed and asked in disbelief, “How is that possible. Shi xiong, you really couldn’t tell? Even if you do have some sort of entanglement with little sister Xiao Xiao in the future, surely you’d be able to had a peek of sort!”
“I….”
He opened his mouth and closed it again. Mo Xuanzun had no idea how to explain it. He had tried to calculate both the girl’s origin and fate, but he wasn’t able to see anything. It felt like a slap on his face, so he forced his way to peek into what he shouldn’t just to try and figure it all out. There were two individuals on his mind, but he was only able to see one of them.
In the alternate world, with a quick peek, he felt it was the girl whom he had met and saved in the valley and couldn’t get out of his mind.
As for the so-called Cheng Xiao Xiao, he really didn’t see her; so he really wasn’t able to answer Gong Zixuan’s question.
“Shi xiong Mo, does that mean you have no ties at all with little sister Xiao Xiao? Or that you do?”
“Ugh, I am not sure either. I guess a messy relationship?” Mo Xuanzun threw out the first thing on his mind.
Upon hearing that, Gong Zixuan covered up her mouth and smile. Looking at him with great interest, she said, “Shi xiong Mo, if you really fell for my little sister Xiao Xiao, you better be nice to her. Otherwise, I will have a bone to pick with you!”
“Ugh, I don’t think so, Me and her….”
Mo Xuanzun’s handsome face stiffened. He thought about the mean girl whom he met. All he wanted was to find her again. He shook his head, “Shi mei Gong, don’t be silly. I can only look at that Cheng Xiao Xiao like a sister and nothing else. I don’t want anything else with her; it’s not possible!”
“What?”
Looking at the man in front of her who seemed to be a little bit different than before, Gong Zixuan blurted out what was on her mind, “Shi xiong Mo, you fell for a girl?”
“Ugh…” Mo Xuanzun, who had just recovered some, seemed nervous all of a sudden. Quickly he denied, “No! You are making stuff up! I did not fall for any girls. Don’t even joke about that!”
Mo Xuanzun’s behavior couldn’t have been more obvious!
Gong Zixuan tried as hard as she could to stop herself from laughing out loud. She didn’t expect him to meet a pretty girl on his first trip ever. This nerd would fall for someone? She was so curious, “Shi xiong Mo, is she pretty?”
“Yes, very pretty. But, she was so mean…”
Mo Xuanzun suddenly realized that he had spilled what was on his mind. He shut his mouth and stared at Gong Zixuan with his long and narrow eyes. A hint of frustration on his handsome face, he said unhappily, “You tricked me. That wasn’t very nice. Good girls don’t do things like that. You should be more aware of that in the future. Don’t forget, I am your shi xiong after all!”
“Hehe, shi xiong had fallen for a girl. It’s not a bad thing. Why didn’t you bring her back?” Gong Zixuan didn’t care that he was pulling rank with her but continued with her questioning.
“There’s no such thing!” Mo Xuanzun decided to end the subject and pretended that he didn’t say anything at all.
“Fine! Be that way then!”
Judging by his look, Gong Zixuan understood that it would be pointless to ask any more questions. If Mo Xuanzun didn’t want to share something, nobody would be able to get it out of him.
“Shi xiong Mo, but you are still going to visit little sister Xiao Xiao at Dafeng?”
“Well…”
Thinking about her again, Mo Xuanzun felt very conflicted as he wasn’t able to calculate what kind of a character this Cheng Xiao Xiao was. He eye sight fell upon the vine again. He did want to go meet her and figure out what exactly was this vine. Not only that it was odd, it was also very powerful. No ordinary weapons would be able to rival it.
