Travel To The World Of Ca Li
The Forgotten Awkwardness
So far, Mo Ji Gui had not spoken anymore, as she was trying to suppress her complicated convoluted feelings. He was eager to shout loudly forbidding the girl to go to the capital, but, he could not do that.
On the other hand, Xiu Qixuan understood the difficult situation between them. Despite the awkward events that went wrong in their relationship it seems to have been forgotten in the past. But, the naturally flowing heavy pressure did not change.
"What brings you back to Ping'an City?" Xiu Qixuan turned to ask. After all, he wanted to immediately end this tension by means of casual speaking.
"you reckon? What brings me back?" The simple smile on the corner of Mo Ji Gui's mouth became slightly weaker. Her eyes that contained that wisdom drooped slightly staring at the pretty face of Xiu Qixuan with her sinking gaze.
Seeing him like that made Xiu Qixuan rather difficult to speak.
"Wind shows eye direction in a flock of birds. As soon as the news brought by the eagles came, making me hurry without thinking." Mo Ji Gui's soft voice flowed quietly to re-echo in his ears.
Listening to his narration secretly the expression on Xiu Qixuan's face looked slightly distorted stiffly. The people in Shen country must have understood what 'Eagle' meant'. It was the name for an elite force that was hereditary trained by the Head of the Xiu Family.
They could call it a Border Guard Eagle or a Reconnaissance Eagle. It could even be said to be a special emblem belonging to the Xiu Family.
"What did you say to you?" His calm voice naturally asked, yet seemed to have a stifled tension in his trembling gaze.
If the eagles gave news to Mo Ji Gui—meaning it was on the orders and will of his father, Xiu Haocun. Xiu Qixuan's heart felt uneasy about it.
The two thin lips belonging to Mo Ji Gui who was smiling gently lifted to speak back; "Nothing. Don't worry, I won't do anything you don't want." His tone of voice was low and peaceful mixed with affection that was difficult to predict in the radiance of his two eyeballs.
Ludicrously, his method had managed to hit Xiu Qixuan's heart struggling doubtfully. The girl's pretty face gradually softened comfortably. Mo Ji Gui had always been like this, a man who had no interest in taking advantage of his trifling situation.
Xiu Qixuan sincerely said; "As expected. That's not bad to hear. Mo Ji Gui, thank you."
As soon as the comfort returns they get, naturally along the way the conversation continues to flow. It was to the point when the topic about the Mo Empire was accidentally raised.
"In the past two years severe droughts have occurred in the northeast to the southwest of the Mo Empire. Rainfall hardly ever falls there." Mo Ji Gui explained with a frown on his face. "We have maximized the handling, but did not improve. Instead of improving it is instead spreading to the ends of the region. And, I don't know why this disaster is so weird."
Xiu Qixuan listened seriously. He tilted slightly at his puzzled face; "Is there a certain phenomenon that causes weirdness?"
Mo Ji Gui's face hardened, his eyes looking rather dull. He was silent for quite a while. Weighing to talk.
"Ah, I'm sorry. Unknowingly, I have lost my limit." Instinctively Xiu Qixuan immediately corrected her remark, she realized Mo Ji Gu's predicament. He was trying to understand that it was another state affair that foreigners should not get too involved in.
Mo Ji Gui replied subtly; "It's okay, Xuan'er. I wanted to tell you." His eyes looked seriously, continuing. "That's really creepy. When the ground became barren, and the beasts suddenly became even more wild like monsters. Black cloud clumps came out from the cracked ground, humans who were in the region with the phenomenon no one survived."
The frown on Xiu Qixuan's pretty face was evident as her mind struggled to guess. His curiosity has really increased.
"I just heard this news." Xiu Qixuan said in a somewhat daze.
"The news was secretly banned by the government. Shen was only willing to send food aid to Mo. So, separately no outsider knows about the phenomenon." Mo Ji Gui explained in a relaxed tone that seemed indifferent after revealing a state secret to him.
Xiu Qixuan's lips immediately pursed forward, she glared sharply in disbelief; "I heard nothing." Spontaneously he shook his face cutely raising his hand to avoid future misfortune.
Mo Ji Gu laughed back silly looking at her behavior.
The crunching carriage slowly slowed down. The driver pulled control and stopped. Mo Ji Gui lifted the curtain and saw the statue of the crowning lion adorning the main gate of the Xiu Residence already welcoming them.
"Master, miss. we've arrived at Xiu's residence." The coachman raised his voice, telling briefly.
Mo Ji Gui who had first rushed over jumped out of the carriage. After that Xiu Qixuan got up with a bit of distress carrying Xiu Yuheng in both hands.
The rain that fell left faint specks. The wind that blows brings cool dew.
Xiu Qixuan moved forward to get out from within the carriage. The robe given by Mo Ji Gui was still she wore to envelop Xiu Yuheng's body.
Jolted his body which slid freely, slipping forward. He kept both his hands tightly wrapped around protecting Xiu Yuheng from impact.
Before it completely fell, a pair of hands gently wrapped around her body, lightly transported her into an embrace. Above his head a low and heavy voice slowly resounded melodiously; "Step careless, Miss."
Xiu Qixuan did not budge. He blinked with his breathing that was still unbecoming in surprise.
Watching Xiu Qixuan's tense plain expression. Mo Ji Gui moved back, releasing first his grip from Xiu Qixuan's slender body. Then he slapped his finger hard on the girl's pretty forehead and said in a tone full of warning; "It is very dangerous to fall while still carrying a child."
Xiu Qixuan immediately regained her senses and immediately cleared her throat gracefully to stabilize her expression. His attitude drastically changed to become more dignified and he acted subtly.
He circulated his gaze around making sure that no accomplices of Yao Yunmei had witnessed the incident. Because if Yao Yunmei had come to know that Xiu Yuheng had almost fallen out of his hands, the practice of how to walk in his etiquette lessons would have been more complicated.
"No need to be careful. Act freely. It feels strange to see you acting like a real noble lady." Seeing the sudden change in attitude, Mo Ji Gui leaned forward to whisper the words in Xiu Qixuan's ears.
Xiu Qixuan could feel a tickling sensation from her warm breath piercing the earlobe. Xiu Qixuan's eyes spontaneously widened and furrowed unhappily at the words that were thrown from Mo Ji Gui's mouth.
"Son Ji, you've come." Suddenly a loud voice echoed kindly from the direction of the residence entrance.
They turned their heads together, a high silhouette caught within eye-sight. Xiu Haocun walked over with his strangely smiling face staring at them in turn.
"Hoh, you're with Xuan'er..." Xiu Haocun said ambiguously with his tone sounding strange like it contained a special sirat that could not be understood.
•••••••••••••••
N/T: in each chapter is definitely author slipin clue information for the top of the ending later. gamungkin made blank without lines. btw, the cover of the novel is replaced because some more chapters the author will take 'main focus' to Xuanyuan's complicated conflict.
This Q&A that many of you have questioned;
Has male lead been determined?
Broadly speaking it had been since the beginning, Demon Zi a.k.a Yuan Zi. (This is the most problematic male lead in the whole life story is more complicated than xuan)
Who ends up as Qixuan's partner until the ending? Hmm, maybe our male lead (doubt tone wkwk) just a surprise.
What about Sima Junke?
A Jun we are too dear to be made a sad boy.author is also still not sincerely give A Jun to others wkwk. You guys who love to die with A Jun want to like how?
Who wants to continue wondering pretentious in the comments column.
