When the shop was about to close for the afternoon, Chen Zimo came over. Mo Xiaoyan was packing up and closed the shop right away.
Chen Zimo walked over and said: "Xiaoyan, are you done?"
"Yes, I'm done. What's the matter?" Mo Xiaoyan said with a smile.
"Do you want to go for a walk with me later?" Chen Zimo hadn't seen Mo Xiaoyan for a while, he had come this time because he wanted to walk and talk with Mo Xiaoyan.
"About this …" Mo Xiaoyan was a little hesitant.
"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient? " Chen Zimo asked.
"No, it's just that it seems like the sky is about to turn dark." Mo Xiaoyan said as she looked outside.
"It's fine. I'll send you back when it's dark. How about it?" Chen Zimo felt that this wasn't really a big deal, he just didn't know if Mo Xiaoyan was willing to go out and walk around together with him.
"Alright, wait a moment." Chen Zimo had already come over, but Mo Xiaoyan was too embarrassed to reject. After all, Chen Zimo had helped him in the past, and there were not many people that were familiar with him in the capital, so Chen Zimo was one of them.
Mo Xiaoyan quickly finished packing, and Mo Xiaoxia and the others went back home, leaving Mo Xiaoyan with Chen Zimo.
"Xiaoyan, how have you been recently? Are you all right? " Chen Zimo said as he walked.
"It's pretty good. What about you? What have you been doing? I haven't seen you in a long time. " Mo Xiaoyan asked.
"I've been busy with some small matters recently, so I haven't had the time to come visit you." Chen Zimo felt that as long as he could see Mo Xiaoyan from afar, he would be the happiest of the lot.
Just as he walked for a while, he saw a few people on the street in front of him, two of whom Mo Xiaoyan was sure to be familiar with, and they were Su Jinxuan and Leng Qianye.
But the person beside Su Jinxuan, Mo Xiaoyan felt that it was very eye-catching, it was the woman she saw last time in the shop, Lin Ziyao.
Mo Xiaoyan knew Su Jinxuan's temperament and personality, he rarely smiled at others, but he seemed to be very happy in front of Lin Ziyao. He had thought Su Jinxuan would be very busy every day, but now it seemed that Su Jinxuan was not that busy, and was very free as well.
"Let's go this way." Mo Xiaoyan didn't want to stay behind to watch them.
"Alright." Chen Zimo had also noticed them, he did not expect to meet them on the street.
Mo Xiaoyan didn't even know when did she actually start to care about Su Jinxuan so much. She didn't even think much about it before, but now that he was with another woman, he felt very unhappy.
"Xiaoyan, I'll be going back for a bit in a few days. Do you want to go back?" Chen Zimo could tell that Mo Xiaoyan was a little absent-minded right now.
Mo Xiaoyan was currently thinking about what had just happened, so she did not pay attention to what Chen Zimo had just said.
"Xiaoyan, what are you thinking about?" Chen Zimo stopped and asked.
"Oh, nothing, what did you just say?" Mo Xiaoyan returned to her senses and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"I said I'm going back in a few days, do you want to come along too?" I will be back in Beijing by then. " Chen Zimo said again.
"Back to the village?" Mo Xiaoyan also hadn't been back for a long time, and wanted to go back to take a look.
"Yeah, want to come along?" Chen Zimo felt that it would not be so boring to have a companion on the way back with Mo Xiaoyan.
"I don't know if I can go back. The store is rather busy, so it depends. I also want to go back and take a look since I've been out for so long." Mo Xiaoyan thought that if she were to return, it would be more busy to lose someone in the store helping him.
"Is that what you're worried about? I can find a few people for you to help out in the shop, so that you can be at ease and go back with me, how about it? " Chen Zimo felt that this was not a difficult matter.
"Who can I get to help?"
"You don't know him, but he's very hardworking, don't worry." Chen Zimo wanted to send some of the more hardworking and trustworthy people in the house over to help.
"Then I'll go back and discuss it with my parents and I'll give you an answer tomorrow. How about it?" Mo Xiaoyan felt that it would be safer to return with Chen Zimo. This was a rare opportunity to discuss this with Lady Li and Mo Dalin first.
"That's fine too." Chen Zimo was still very happy in his heart.
When he returned home at night, Lady Li, Mo Dalin and a few others were sitting and chatting in the courtyard.
"Xiaoyan, you're back. Come sit."
Mo Xiaoyan went over to sit down and discuss a matter with them before she returned home. "Father, Mother, I want to discuss a matter with you two."
"Xiaoyan, what is it?" Mo Dalin yawned and said.
Chen Zimo said he'll be back in a few days. I want to go with him to visit the house, okay?" Mo Xiaoyan was afraid that the both of them wouldn't agree, because Chen Zimo was a man after all, and the way back was so long. Even if they were familiar with each other, it wouldn't be easy for them to stay together for a long time.
"Is that so? Have you made up your mind? " Mo Dalin was a little hesitant.
"Yes, I've thought about it." Mo Xiaoyan nodded.
"Xiaoyan, Mother feels that it is not appropriate for you to return with that Young Master Chen." Lady Li also didn't want Mo Xiaoyan and Chen Zimo to go back together. After all, Mo Xiaoyan was someone who was betrothed to before, how could she stay with another man for so long?
"Mother, what's wrong?" Mo Xiaoyan knew that this was the way the ancient people thought. Even if Lady Li and Mo Dalin disagreed, Mo Xiaoyan was not surprised, but she still wanted to ask the reason.
"Xiaoyan, you are someone who has been engaged before, how can you stay with other men for such a long period of time? Furthermore, the journey back is so far, and if you guys were to go out for a walk everyday, Mother wouldn't say anything. But this trip is very long, and sometimes you don't even see any inns, you might have to spend the night in the carriage together." The Lady Li sputtered for a long time, hoping that Mo Xiaoyan would give up on this idea.
"Yeah, Xiaoyan, if you really want to go back and take a look, then we will go back together when you have the time." This time, Mo Dalin did not agree to anything as unreasonable as before.
"Hmm, father and mother are right. I didn't think too much about it just now, so I won't go back with him. Let's go back together then." Since she did not agree, Mo Xiaoyan could only give up on this idea.
"That's good." Hearing Mo Xiaoyan's words, Lady Li finally calmed down a lot.
And these words were all heard by the people who were protecting Mo Xiaoyan. Since they heard it, they would immediately report it to Su Jinxuan.
