423 – Pulling A Stunt On Uncle; A Strange Man In Black (6)
“Do you really not know?”
Cheng Xiao Xiao looked up and stared at him, she didn’t believe that he was completely clueless.
Mo Xuanzun cocked his head and thought about it for a while then, giving Cheng Xiao Xiao a spoiled look, he said, “Is it because of shi mei Gong?”
“You got it! No price though!”
Smiling, Cheng Xiao Xiao reached out, pinched him on his cheek and asked, “When did you realize that big sister Zixuan is fond of my uncle? How come I didn’t know?”
“Of course I could tell!” He lets her did all she wanted to with his face and, with the curling of his lips, he smiled and said, “Every time that uncle was around, I noticed shi mei Gone sneaking looks at him. I assumed that means she is fond of him.”
“Okay, not bad!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao gave him a coquettish look and said, “Big sister Zixuan had been fond of uncle for quite a while now. She told me that she had fallen for him since she first met him a few years ago except she wasn’t able to see him again since. It was quite unexpected that she ran into him again at our place.”
“Oh, is that so?” That was surprising news to Mo Xuanzun. He wasn’t aware of that before. Thinking about it for a while, he smiled, “That’s not a bad thing, uncle and shi mei Gong will make a good couple!”
“I agree, they will make a good couple, but…” Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned and, giving him a sidelong glance, asked, “Do you think big sister Zixuan’s parent will be okay with that?”
“Well, that….”
Seeing how Mo Xuanzun had gone silent, Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned and asked, “You think they wouldn’t like my uncle’s status?”
“Well, uncle might not be from a prominent family, but he is a disciple of the Clan of Magical Swords after all. That wasn’t bad. I don’t think Uncle and Aunty Gong would object to it. It’s best if Clan Master Qin will be their spoke person. Things will for sure go smoother that way!”
“Oh….”
Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and felt much better. She didn’t want to see the two of them kept apart by those from the Palace of Immortal Beasts.
The two of them waited around for 2 hours in the forest and still didn’t hear anything back from the bees so they headed home. After all, the bees will notify them as soon as they found something.
As soon as they got back, they heard a voice from the living room that they were unfamiliar with. The two of them exchanged a look and went through a different way and avoided going to meet the stranger in the living room.
Even though she hadn’t met these people, Cheng Xiao Xiao knew that they were also seniors from the Top 9 Sects. So what if they have came to her place? She would meet them if she wanted to; and if she didn’t, then she wouldn’t!
The two arrived at the Yuteng Pavilion and Cheng Xiao Xiao asked as she was walking, “You said to set up tactical arrangements in the cherry forest, how’s that coming along? If we don’t plant soon, I wouldn’t have any cherry blossom to look at next year!”
“Almost. I have been working on setting the main arrangement with old man Ji lately so the small ones will have to wait.”
“How much longer?”
“I should be able to figure out what’s best to use there in the next few days.”
“We have all the mystical devices we will need?”
As Cheng Xiao Xiao had assigned them all to him, she wasn’t sure how those were coming along.
“We have all of them awhile back. Don’t worry, Xiao Xiao. Old Man Ji is good with with words!”
“That’s good to hear!”
As they were chatting, they had already arrived at Yuteng Pavilion. Yesu and Yecao greeted them with a curtsey, “Miss, Guye.”
“Prepare iced tea for us!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao.
“Yes, Miss.”
As soon as the two sat down in the small living room and before they could even take a sip of the tea, they heard a frustrated voice from the outside, “Little sister Xiao Xiao!”
Eh? She was here to complaint already huh?
The two unconscientious ones exchanged a look and smiled at each other.
Gong Zixuan, who busted into the room, saw the smiles that were still on them, making this beauty all the more sup, “Little sister Xiao Xiao, did you do that on purpose?”
“Oh boy, big sister Zixuan. What happened? Why are you so upset”? chuckled Cheng Xiao Xiao.
“You…!”
