Chapter 221: 220

Shi Baoyou’s expression stiffened and she shook her head in a hurry. “No. I didn’t mean that… I just…”

“Baoyou, since you didn’t mean that, why did you say that she offended me?” Shi Qingxue quickly interrupted Shi Baoyou.

She made a conclusion directly. “In the final analysis, you still think that even if Aunt said something wrong, I am not broad-minded or respectful to her as I bother about her.”

Shi Baoyou was speechless.

She just wanted to save Zhou Ruyu from this argument.

She did as she had done many times in the past and thought that if she showed her weakness and admitted defeat, she could minimize the problem.

She didn’t expect that Shi Qingxue was so difficult to handle, and she couldn’t respond to every word.

She would be wrong no matter how she answered.

Shi Qingxue didn’t want to give Shi Baoyou a chance to argue or show the white feather.

She changed the subject and lowered herself first.

She said in a weak tone with grievance like Shi Baoyou did, “Fine. You are older than me, so no matter what you say, you are right. Baoyou, you told me not to bother about it, so I don’t dare to.”

Shi Baoyou was unable to reply.

Probably, Shi Baoyou pretended to be weak for so many years, but she was beaten back most miserably with most grievance this time.

After all, her cousin Shi Qingxue did everything as she said. What else could she say?

No matter how slick in social relations Shi Baoyou was, she had to laugh awkwardly. “Qingxue, you are so generous.”

“Thanks!” Shi Qingxue accepted it with no guilt.

Then she asked impassively, “What can I do for you?”

Zhou Ruyu and Shi Baoyou couldn’t say a word.

Before they thought about anything to say, Shi Qingxue continued indifferently, “Oh. Since you have nothing to say, I am going back to the East House first.”

Afterward, she held Mo Junyang’s hand and walked to the East House.

After they walked far away and entered the courtyard of the East House, Shi Qingxue slowed down and took a deep breath unhappily. She murmured, “It’s so troublesome!”

She didn’t say what she meant exactly.

Mo Junyang suddenly stated, “Shi Baoyou, she…”

“Hmm?” Shi Qingxue responded gently and raised her eyes to look at Mo Junyang, waiting for his next words.

Mo Junyang coughed and then pointed out simply, “She is not a good person.”

Shi Qingxue smiled and nodded. “I have guessed that.”

After a pause, she continued with interest, “But how do you know that?”

Mo Junyang was always an onlooker and saw everything most clearly, but he never commented.

She was curious why Mo Junyang changed all of a sudden.

But Mo Junyang stopped talking and even stared at her gently, looking obedient and weak.

If Mo Junyang were not tall and big, he would be like a little woman.

Shi Qingxue imagined about the little woman “Mo Junyang” and felt chill.

She waved her hand as if to admit defeat and couldn’t help but complain, “Enough. If you pretend again, you will be exposed.”

Huh! Don’t think that she didn’t know how insincere Mo Junyang was as he showed his weakness and grievance.

The grievance on Mo Junyang’s face disappeared and he stood straight. He didn’t defend himself at all.

He was so obedient. Even though Shi Qingxue knew that he pretended, she couldn’t bear to blame him.

“Humph!”

Shi Qingxue snorted crossly and didn’t want to talk with Mo Junyang.

She didn’t hold his hand and walked forward directly.

Mo Junyang finally knew that he was in trouble because he pretended, so he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Qingxue’s hand. Then he admitted his mistake in a soft voice. “It was my fault. Don’t be mad at me.”

Shi Qingxue rolled her eyes at him and complained in a bad mood, “I haven’t mentioned what you did when I lost my memory. You were distant and cruel. You stayed away from me on purpose and suddenly turned hostile again and again…”

Even though after she regained her memory, she knew why Mo Junyang was hesitant, she felt really sad then and wouldn’t let him go so easily.

Mo Junyang looked around and couldn’t avoid her, so he admitted his fault and confessed, “I just think that Shi Baoyou hides her intentions very well, and I am afraid that she would harm you again, so I want you to be careful of her…”

As for the crimes Shi Qingxue mentioned just now, Mo Junyang couldn’t explain, so he evaded the crucial point and pretended that he didn’t hear her.

Shi Qingxue saw through Mo Junyang at a glance, but she paid attention to his word “again”, which was meaningful.

“Do you think she did something in Shi Baojin’s case?” Shi Qingxue immediately guessed the hidden meaning in Mo Junyang’s words.

Mo Junyang looked cold and responded directly, “No matter if she did something, it had something to do with her.”

He didn’t conceal his killing intent and showed all his true colors to Shi Qingxue.

He wanted to kill Shi Baoyou.

Shi Qingxue kept silent.

Although Mo Junyang looked horrible, Shi Qingxue just felt that he was real and very…handsome.

Shi Qingxue sighed with emotion as his beautiful face disturbed her, and meanwhile she cursed herself secretly as she was not determined, but she couldn’t conceal her face which was more burning.

“Forget it. Do what you want to.”

She purposely said that in a loud voice and then lowered her head to walk forward.

Mo Junyang didn’t chase her in a hurry. Shi Qingxue’s behavior gave him much confidence undoubtedly. He was almost sure that she wouldn’t give him up again.

So he felt peaceful from the bottom of his heart and even walked forward much more lightly than before.

Shi Qingxue walked too fast and found that Mo Junyang still moved slowly behind her. She looked back and frowned at him with displeasure. She intentionally shouted to show that she disliked him, “Walk faster!”

Mo Junyang wouldn’t disagree but showed a smile with love.

“Okay!”

Then he walked to Shi Qingxue in just three steps and held her hand naturally, looking at her, with joy in his eyes and brows.

Shi Qingxue couldn’t speak a word. She almost didn’t know Mo Junyang.

Was this the emperor who was terrifying and made everybody tremble after hearing his name?

This was not him!

Shi Qingxue was desperate as she didn’t have any resistance to such a man.

Mo Junyang reached out his hand to her ear and pinched it gently. Then he laughed.

“You have a blush!”

His voice was deep and magnetic.

Ah!

After hearing this voice, even the ear could get pregnant.

Shi Qingxue hurriedly saved her ears from Mo Junyang’s hand and rubbed her face to release the blush.

She pretended to be angry and glared at the man. “If you waste more time, I won’t talk with you!”

This time she didn’t dare to look at the man but walked quickly into the main hall of the East House.

Only Dong Hui was there.

“Mother!” Shi Qingxue joyfully ran to Dong Hui.

She looked her mother up and down first and confirmed that she was all right. But she still asked worriedly, “How are you feeling now?”

Dong Hui was about to say with a smile that she was fine, but she raised her head and saw Mo Junyang standing at the door.

Her face stiffened and she didn’t answer but asked Qingxue in a low voice, “What is he doing here?”

Dong Hui still didn’t know that Shi Qingxue had regained her memory and thought the two young people didn’t talk with each other.

Shi Qingxue remembered that before she fell into a coma, Dong Hui had shown that she didn’t like Mo Junyang for no reason and insisted on telling Qingxue to have blind dates. She didn’t want Qingxue to get close to Mo Junyang.

For a moment, the smile on Qingxue’s face faded, but she still answered Dong Hui, “His Excellency and I have something to tell Father. Where is he?”

At the mention of Shi Junhe, Dong Hui’s attention was brought away, and her face wrinkled. She snorted with displeasure. “Your grandma summoned him. I don’t know when he can come back.”

Her tone was meaningful…

Shi Qingxue immediately understood that Mo Shujun summoned Shi Junhe not to praise him, but didn’t her father have a great merit this time?

If Shi Junhe didn’t come back in time to settle down the rebellion, nobody knew how the capital would be harmed.

Her father was a big hero of the Mo Country.

Dong Hui sneered. “But who knows that somebody shrank back?”

“Who are you talking about?” Shi Qingxue thought of Wenren Chi subconsciously, but on second thought, she denied it at once.

Her brother was taught by her father and inherited the merits of the Shi family and Wenren family. He would never shrink back.

Dong Hui didn’t answer but glanced at Mo Junyang, silently telling Qingxue to ask him.

As soon as Shi Qingxue turned her head, Mo Junyang explained, “Third Master Shi led the soldiers to stop the rebel army outside the boundary river under orders, but they retreated instead of fighting and made the rebel army cross the boundary river. His Majesty gave the order and declared him guilty as a deserter. His position was deposed and he will be punished after the war is settled.”

“Uh…”

Qingxue was speechless and didn’t know how to comment on her uncle Shi Juncai.

“So Grandma wanted Father to ask His Majesty for mercy for my uncle?”

Dong Hui nodded with displeasure. “Although the rebellion has been settled down temporarily now, His Majesty is furious, and I hear that he fainted out of anger several times because of the rebellion, but your grandma tells your father to ask for mercy. Wouldn’t he irritate His Majesty?”

He might be unable to save Shi Juncai, but he would probably be in trouble.

“Father won’t go,” Shi Qingxue expressed with certainty all of a sudden.

Dong Hui looked at her doubtfully and didn’t know why she was so confident.

However, Shi Qingxue didn’t have time to explain. She told Dong Hui something in a hurry and then brought Mo Junyang to the Shou’an Hall.

“Why are you sure that General Shi won’t ask for mercy for Third Master Shi?”

Shi Qingxue walked forward in haste and replied casually without looking back, “My father disdains the deserters most. Now the deserter is his brother and he already cheated as he didn’t capture my uncle to the execution ground. It’s impossible to make him ask for mercy for my uncle.”

But Mo Junyang retorted, “It’s not sure. The princess royal gets involved, and that’s his brother. If General Shi wants to stay out of it, it may not be so easy.”

“My father won’t give in,” Shi Qingxue replied without thinking.

When they reached the Shou’an Hall, it happened that Shi Junhe walked out.

He looked exhausted as if he had been in a big war.

Shi Qingxue hurriedly walked to Shi Junhe and grabbed his arm with concern, asking, “Father, are you okay?”

Shi Junhe shook his head silently and brought them out of the Shou’an Hall. Then he reminded in a deep voice, “Your grandma is not in a good mood these days. If you have nothing important, don’t disturb her.”

He thought the two came to greet Mo Shujun.

Qingxue pouted and didn’t hide her disdain for Mo Shujun. She murmured, “I came to see you?”

“Why?” Shi Junhe was confused.

Shi Qingxue said boldly, “Of course I am afraid that you were bullied by her. Did she make things difficult for you?”

Shi Junhe shook his head and was about to say no. Suddenly he realized that Qingxue didn’t call Mo Shujun grandma from beginning to end.

He couldn’t help but frown and rebuke in a low voice, “You are naughty. She is your grandma. How can you speak like this?”

Shi Qingxue also knew that her behavior would give others a chance to comment on her, but under the situation, she couldn’t peacefully take Mo Shujun as her respected grandma.

She talked about something else.

Then she asked, “Father, what were you talking about?”
