"Brother~"
The little bean turned to ChenMo, making a soft call and was completely different from the previous Little Witch who killed ruthlessly and left no trace.
Over these few days since leaving the courtyard, Xiao Dou Ding thought about this long-lost brother day and night. Today, at last, she was able to see him again. She had no time to spare for anything else and rushed towards Chen Mo like a pig in a rage, just as she had on their first meeting, clinging to him.
Tap.
A person with a ball hit Chen Mo and pushed him back several steps, followed by a suffocating feeling.
"Brother, I've finally seen you again. You know, these days back in Miaozhou, I was discovered by the cave master and almost taken back. But fortunately, I managed to come back in time. Otherwise, I might have had to wait a long time before seeing you again."
Xiao Dou Ding happily hugged Chen Mo's head and told him about her experiences.
"Uwuu"
Chen Mo was really feeling the strain. After exhausting his Qi and blood just now and only having a slight recovery, he had to endure this tribulation again. If things continued like this, he felt that he might not be killed by Miao Tiannan but would be suffocated to death by Xiao Dou Ding instead.
"Chen Mo"
Suddenly, from the top of the courtyard, a cold voice was heard. To see, wearing a white dress, with a young master appearance, Long Fei Wu hurriedly came.
Today, after reclaiming the throne, there are many busy matters to attend to, and many post-war affairs require her personal attention. As the Empress, Long Fei Wu is normally unable to step away from her duties to handle other matters. However, upon hearing the report that Miao Tiannan's body had disappeared, an unease crept into her heart. She immediately thought of Chen Mo's safety.
Therefore, she left the palace and the city that night, and even before she arrived at the courtyard, she sensed the battle here. She was in a hurry and ran to help Chen Mo, not realizing that she encountered such a spicy scene.
No longer worried, an inexplicable surge of restless thoughts rose in her heart. Long Fei Wu jumped down from the roof and cold eyes coldly swept over Xiao Dou Ding. "As a woman, how can you be so reckless? Get down quickly."
Xiao Dou Ding's legs were wrapped around Chen Mo's waist, and her hands held his head. Upon hearing Long Fei Wu's words, she relaxed her hold slightly, allowing nearly suffocated Chen Mo to catch a breath.
"My reunion with my brother has nothing to do with you."
Xiao Dou Ding's face darkened, ready to say that she had a deep relationship with Chen Mo. But her eyes suddenly brightened, and she realized that the white-clad young master in front of her looked somewhat familiar.
"What does it have to do with you? Chen Mo is mine, he is my..."
Long Fei Wu stammered, not knowing what to say about her relationship with Chen Mo for a moment. If she said that they were friends, it seemed too far away. If she said that they were friends above, it seemed too close, and might cause misunderstandings...
"Are you the Long brother?"
Xiao Dou Ding blinked her eyes and curiously asked.
Long Fei Wu hesitated for a moment, looking up and down at the legal young girl in front of her with no impression. After all, she had only been a six-year-old child back then, and now she was a grown-up young woman, with a completely changed appearance.
"That's right, she was the arrogant Heavenly Brother who often came to our house."
Chen Mo explained to Xiao Dou Ding and then looked at Long Fei Wu, who was full of doubts. "She was the little bean back then."
"It's you?"
After Chen Mo's explanation, Long Fei Wu immediately remembered. Although she wasn't very familiar with Xiao Dou Ding, she still had some impression of her. However, she never expected the cute and harmless little girl from back then to grow up like this.
Long Fei Wu's gaze unconsciously fell on the place in front of Xiao Dou Ding, where she almost suffocated Chen Mo. Her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. The little girl was very fierce.
After a moment of astonishment, Long Fei Wu finally reacted. She realized that a woman like herself could be momentarily bewitched by Xiao Dou Ding's figure, so how could Chen Mo not be completely captivated?
Thinking of this, she raised her eyebrows, frowned and looked up and down at Xiao Dou Ding, then said in a fierce voice: "Even if you have been protected by him since you were young, you can't be so disrespectful. You're not a child anymore. Do you know the principle that men and women should not be mixed?"
After Chen Mo's introduction, Xiao Dou Ding also remembered the person who had cared for them in the past and knew her identity. She had wanted to be happy to recognize her after so many years, but upon hearing Long Fei Wu's words, her smile instantly faded.
"Humph, my brother and I have known each other since we were young. What's wrong with being close? When we were young, we even shared the same bed. As for some time ago, we were also like that. My brother didn't say anything, why do you care so much?"
Xiao Dou Ding bared her teeth and didn't let a single inch, not only having a good physical strength, but also having excellent verbal skills. Hearing Long Fei Wu's face change repeatedly, she couldn't refute for the time being. Then, she turned her head and glared at Chen Mo with anger.
Chen Mo felt a wave of embarrassment too, not knowing how to explain... No, why should I even want to explain...
"Moreover, my brother has already agreed to marry me. As unmarried couple, there is no such principle as men and women should not be mixed."
Xiao Dou Ding thought for a moment and added another sentence.
This time, Long Fei Wu felt a bit overwhelmed, her eye twitched, and her expression turned cold, "I remember, when you left, she was only six years old."
The implication was that you had deceived a child into marrying you?
Chen Mo felt embarrassed, lightly wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, "Xiao Dou Ding, when have I made any promise to you? Don't falsely accuse me of having done anything."
At the words, Xiao Dou Ding immediately widened her eyes, her big, watery eyes blinking, and she looked at Chen Mo with a pitiful expression, "Brother, do you want to deny it? That year, you saw my body and caused Xiao Dou Ding to be unable to marry anyone. If you don't marry me, who will?"
As she spoke, Xiao Dou Ding lightly rolled up her red sleeves with her small hands, pretending to wipe away tears, and she looked as delicate and pitiful as could be, making people unable to help but feel sympathy for her.
Long Fei Wu's face turned dark, she glared at Chen Mo angrily and said nothing.
Yun Chunqiu's eyes lit up. The emperor was deeply devoted to Chen Mo. If she were to find out about this, she might develop an aversion to this scoundrel. No good, she must remember it and report it to the emperor so that she would have no affection for this rascal.
As for the others, they were like people who had just eaten a huge scoop of news, happily staring at the two of them, eagerly waiting to see if they would hear any juicy secrets.
Chen Mo's face was a bit embarrassed, as it was true that he had seen Xiao Dou Ding's body to drive out the bugs that year, but she was just a little kid at the time.
When Xiao Dou Ding approached him with this matter, Chen Mo thought she was just a child being tricked and mumbled a few words, agreeing on the spot.
Little did he know that she had come back to fulfill the promise after three hundred years.
Who should he go to for help?
With burning eyes all around, Chen Mo was too lazy to explain to them. Then he encountered Xiao Dou Ding's pitiful gaze, causing him a headache. After a moment of thought, he helplessly sighed and immediately changed the subject, "Let's talk about the matter at hand. Have you found the person I asked you to look for?"
