Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Jealousy(2)_1

She was about to go to the Capital, where she would live within his sight. If he continued to be so persistent in his pursuit, it would cause many troubles for her. For example, his mother would be the first to confront him and it might even involve her family. This was something she couldn’t bear. Since the two of them could no longer be together, why keep dragging each other down in a broken relationship?

She had told him several times that he should stop seeing her, but he couldn’t control himself. However, if he knew she had someone else in her heart, would he stop his undue pursuit and disappear from her life?

Thinking about this, her heart beats fast, that plan seemed more feasible. Therefore, she lowered her head, shyly said to her mother, "I have been upfront and honest with Big Brother Huo; I would not dare to do anything that violates the women’s moral codes. Mother, you can rest assured!"

Although she said that she had done nothing morally wrong with Young Master Huo, her shy demeanor and ambiguous words left room for interpretation.

Big Brother Huo, honest and upright...

Mu Zhongqing and Lady Du, after hearing their daughter’s words and seeing her shy look, looked at each other with a grave expression, understanding in their hearts.

At this moment, Wen’er suddenly pointed forward and shouted, "Master!" Then, she ran toward him.

Mu Zhongqing and his wife had seen Nangong Yi earlier. His appearance was too conspicuous to ignore. But their minds were on their daughter, so they had overlooked him. Now, hurried by Wen’er, they had no choice but to acknowledge him, and they went up to greet Nangong Yi.

Nangong Yi walked over, the spring breeze seemed mild and his eyes were gentle. After glancing at a certain person, he laughed and said, "It’s such a coincidence to run into Elder Mu. Elder Mu is quite leisurely, enjoying the lanterns with his family, unlike me, alone and uninterested."

Hearing this, Mu Zhongqing said, "Since you are alone, Young Master, why not join us if you don’t mind? It will be more lively for us to be together."

Nangong Yi didn’t refuse and said straightforwardly, "Indeed, it is better to obey with respect."

Chai Feng, who was standing aside, sighed in relief. His master had originally planned to come out and have fun with the woman and her family to improve their relationship, but he was held back by Saknu from Liaodan, who had also arrived in Lin’an Prefecture today. Saknu found their inn and insisted on staying in the same inn with his master so they could travel to the capital together. It was difficult to shake off him. After finally getting rid of Saknu, his master rushed to ’bump into’ her and her family.

They waited in the cold wind for more than half a day and finally caught up with them. But that damned woman seemed to ignore his master, focusing on her own things, without even greeting him. True enough, his master’s effort was in vain.

Nangong Yi was already used to Cai Wei’s indifference. He didn’t mind and walked with Mu Zhongqing, talking and watching the lanterns, heading towards the inn.

However, for some reason, Elder Mu seemed to have a lot on his mind today. His master spoke to him several times, but he didn’t reply, lost in his thoughts. Not only him, but everyone from the Mu family also seemed preoccupied. Even Wen’er, who usually liked to show off in front of him, behaved a little more.

After returning to the inn, Mu Zhongqing told Nangong Yi that his family was tired and wanted to rest early. He planned to leave him and take his wife and children back to their rooms to rest. Nangong Yi laughed and said to Wen’er, "Luckily, I have some free time today, and I plan to teach you a few more moves, so you can go back a bit later!"
