"There's so boring for us. Don't you think, Heng'er?" Placing Xiu Yuheng in front of his chest, Xiu Qixuan walked leisurely while gently patting the little boy's back to make him comfortable.
The corner of his mouth contained a smile when he heard Xiu Yuheng's cute babble that was like he was replying. Xiu Qixuan's gaze was slightly raised looking lazily at the magnificent buildings on his right and left.
At this moment, he was on one of the streets of Ping'an City which only contained luxurious shops. Usually this place will only be visited by nobles or rich merchants.
No dirty or dirty looks. It's too neat and classy to feel awkward.
Yao Yunmei who invited her to shop was even so busy with the other noble mistresses.
While at the cloth store when Yao Yunmei wanted to make her a dress, Xiu Qixuan immediately ran away as the mistress draped her like a fly.
If you remember it, Xiu Qixuan felt dizzy until she wanted to die. The mouths of the mistress were like asking her to conduct a war of nerves. They asked and quipped simultaneously.
Xiao Rou until he left there along with Yao Yunmei. He fled only carrying Xiu Yuheng in his arms. Pretending to go out to calm the whining boy.
"Well, Heng'er. Let's play it all out! Your aunt is very talented at having fun." He immediately walked down the winding road. At once a pleasant crowd scene greeted them. The fragrant aroma of cooked food and unique items is lined up on the left and right.
Xiu Yuheng who was inside his arms, laughed. Not only Xiu Qixuan, this little toddler also felt more relaxed and comfortable.
Two hours later, a cold wind blew and a cloud covered the sky. Dusk in the afternoon gray.
In front of a roadside shop, a young girl immediately got up with a baby in her arms.
"Ugh, Heng'er. Come on, looks like we should be right back." Xiu Qixuan lifted a glance at the dark sky. He moved forward with Xiu Yuheng who was so peaceful. The boy's eyes snored lazily, looking exhausted after playing, slowly closing to fall asleep.
The roar of the sky made Xiu Qixuan's footsteps grow faster, half-running. But, it was not enough for him to dodge.
The sky could no longer bear to spurt a layer of water that moistened the soil and flushed away everything above it.
Xiu Qixuan felt the water droplets slowly touching her outer skin, she immediately wrapped tightly around Xiu Yuheng's body preventing the cold wind from penetrating the little boy's body.
The brilliant water layer makes the scene foggy. Xiu Qixuan continued to step forward while circulating his gaze to find a place to shelter because it was too crowded until it felt difficult if crowded on the side of the road.
Suddenly, amidst the noise that was scrolling in. Under the heavy spring rain but felt to have a cool warmth. Someone came covering that bulk, the foggy world scene instantly gradually became clear because of her. The piercing cold wind was immediately blocked by his tall figure.
The resounding sound of the crowd was silent. Xiu Qixuan's eyes looked blankly at him.
His shadow looked faint but grew even more radiant as a smile with a gentle look as cotton was greeting.

"Where do you want to go?"
The clink of his voice echoed like a splash of waves that showed off an uncontaminated peace with the mortal world.
Xiu Qixuan blinked consciously, her clear eyes intertwined to linger looking at the figure. The face he had long passed.
"Teacher..." He called her soft.
"Teacher? That feels awkward now."
This was Mo Ji Gui, before the awkwardness of their relationship had not been over. Because the man was suddenly on his way to go back to the Mo Empire. At that moment, he acted rashly due to losing control over his emotions and feelings. He looked at Xiu Qixuan who was full of pain, he could not bear to know it was caused by a badebah from Nanbao.
"Ah, I'm sorry. Is that too awkward?" xiu Qixuan's eyes clutched in confusion, her mind looking surprised. He had not expected to meet Mo Ji Gui after such a long time.
"Where?" Xiu Qixuan looked doubtful.
"I'll take you and Yuheng home." Knowing Xiu Qixuan's doubtful heart, Mo Ji Gui spoke carefully.
Despite his condolences, Xiu Qixuan accepted Mo Ji Gui's invitation when Xiu Yuheng's name was involved.
This little boy in his arms can get sick if he stays in the rain for too long and blows cold wind. And if that were to happen, Xiu Qixuan - it would be the ravings of all the inhabitants of the residence.
They walk under the same umbrella. An appearance that gives a romantic impression for those who see it, but instead of pounding this feels sideways and distant.
A few steps ahead of the large road, parked in a spacious carriage and had luxurious carvings, four horses with coachmen prepared to wait for the order to spur it.
Xiu Qixuan took Xiu Yuheng up into the carriage, followed by Mo Ji Gui.
"Go to Xiu's Residence."
After the voice of the command was heard, the sound of horse treads rumbled and the carriages crackled forward.
Xiu Qixuan patted Xiu Yuheng's back distracted by the uncomfortable vibrations of the moving carriage. The tip of Xiu Qixuan's nose was already flushed red from the cold but she was not aware of it.
Mo Ji Gui looked at the scene attentively closing the curtains of the carriage blocking the water and the cold wind that pierced through.
Suddenly, Xiu Qixuan felt the speed of the horse carriage gradually slowing down, Mo Ji Gui sent a signal to the coachman. After that the hanging robe was gently lifted by a large hand to cover its body, wrapped around it warmly.
"Ekhmm, I've already sent people to inform Madam Yao." Mo Ji Gui cleared her throat with her awkwardly moved eyes. A cloud of red was on both of his cheeks, embarrassed.
Xiu Qixuan spoke back while laughing lightly; "Yes, thank you."
A few minutes later, Mo Ji Gui's eyes continued to move to glance at him hesitantly, like wanting to say something but being held back.
"Is there anything you want to say?" Xiu Qixuan snorted, she felt burned by that doubtful gaze. "Speak."
"I heard you wanted to go to the capital." Mo Ji Gui said in his low voice that was still stuck in his throat.
"Right, I'll be leaving on the first day of summer." Xiu Qixuan replied without hesitation, she was so calm.
Hearing her words, Mo Ji Gui's heart quietly became tense. "So fast?"
Xiu Qixuan nodded. "Yes, in three weeks."
Mo Ji Gui's jaw instantly clenched, not speaking anymore. He immediately averted his dull gaze, not wanting to appear ridiculous in front of Xiu Qixuan.

N/T: what does Ji Gui miss? the Xuanji ship is about to sink.
