"I heard that the Miss Mo was severely ill, is it better now?"
"It's much better now, thank you Noble Heir for your concern." Mo Qingyan had already guessed that Lin Zifeng would probably find someone to watch her, but now that she had left the house, he had come. It confirmed her guess, "Why did Noble Heir come to this teahouse today?"
If one were to talk about the basis of this conjecture, it would be that Lin Zifeng had fallen in love with him in his previous life and was willing to die to save him in the end.
In this life, she was betting.
It looked like she had made the right choice. At least, from long ago in her previous life, this man had already been protecting her from the shadows.
She only hated that she hadn't noticed him, ignored his existence, and knew almost nothing about him.
If she had known more, she would have been able to help this man in this life.
"Coincidentally, I came out to take a walk. I heard that someone was disrespectful to the Ninth Prince, so I came to take a look." Seeing Mo Qingyan's expression, Lin Zifeng gave up thinking.
Did she just randomly walk around? It really was a coincidence.
"The commoners chat over meals and tea. There is nothing to blame, and what they listen to is spread. Those who do not know are not guilty."
There were some things that she no longer cared about. No matter what others said, it would no longer affect her mood.
"Miss Mo has seen through it, I am overthinking it." A few more traces of praise appeared in the depths of Lin Zifeng's eyes. This rumor seemed to be detrimental to her, but in reality, it had turned into a form of protection for her.
"It's bustling with noise and excitement, but it's just a mediocre matter. I might as well calm my heart and have a pot of good tea, what does Noble Heir think?" Since he was already here, he might as well drink a cup of tea.
The two of them had their own thoughts. After drinking a few cups of tea, just as Lin Zifeng was about to speak, the voice of the guard sounded from outside the door, "Noble Heir, Ninth Prince is here."
The two of them looked at each other, their faces immediately became gloomy, this Long Tianze was truly like a ghost that never left.
"Noble Heir, why don't you leave first."
"As you wish." Lin Zifeng knew that since Long Tianze had found this place, it must be because of the two of them. It was definitely too late to hide now, so the corners of his mouth curled up indifferently, "Ninth Prince sure is a coincidence."
While they were talking, Long Tianze had already pushed open the door and entered the private room, "Yan, Zifeng, you are all here, what a coincidence!"
Seeing his expression, one could tell the anger in his heart. Long Tianze had never been someone with a magnanimous heart, not to mention that Mo Qingyan and him were already engaged.
It was as though a husband had caught his wife on the spot, and his gaze could not wait to spit out fire and burn the two people in front of him to ashes.
"Ninth Prince." Lin Zifeng stood up and bowed respectfully.
"This subject pays respects to Ninth Prince." Although she was not happy in her heart, she was here with Lin Zifeng, so Mo Qingyan naturally did not want Long Tianze to think too much and affect him.
"Yan doesn't need to be so courteous. I heard that you were severely ill, why did you come all the way here?"
After Long Tianze finished speaking, before he could get close to her to help her, she had already stood up, her expression as calm as ever.
"After lying in bed at home for half a month, I have finally recovered a bit. Today, let Ah Nuo accompany me for a walk."
"It's good that you've recovered. This prince was just about to come visit you. When he heard that you had left the manor, he was worried, so he came to take a look. "
Mo Qingyan sneered in his heart, only his mother knew that he left the house, she did not even tell his father, and came out secretly from the back door, Long Tianze must have sent people to find him.
Long Tianze was clearly holding back his anger, yet he spoke in a good mood and did not immediately become angry. He must have noticed the recent rumors and endured as much as he could.
Furthermore, even if he wanted to settle the score with Lin Zifeng, there was no need to do so in front of Mo Qingyan.
"Yan, why are you so absent-minded? What are you thinking?" Seeing that Mo Qingyan was distracted, Long Tianze became even angrier. Usually when he was surrounded by people, this woman would ignore him.
"Don't worry, I suddenly thought of the pastry from the Precious Spring Pavilion. Mother really likes it, Ah Nuo, when you leave later, remember to remind me to buy some."
Mo Qingyan suppressed his heart pounding, and said with a smile.
"Oh!" Ah Nuo hurriedly nodded.
Long Tianze was half believing and half doubting as he turned around to instruct the people behind him, "Go to the Precious Spring Pavilion and buy some pastries. If you want something new, send it along with the Mo Mansion."
It was rare for Mo Qingyan to say something that could make a beauty laugh, so of course Long Tianze had to seize this opportunity.
"Then, I'll have to thank Ninth Prince." Mo Qingyan had just casually found a reason, but he did not expect Long Tianze to recognize the truth.
However, since he was willing, he was prepared.
At most, they would just send it to the beggars at the city gate if they could not finish it at home.
Seeing her smile, Long Tianze was satisfied in his heart, "You and I do not need to be courteous, in the future, if you want anything, I can ask someone to buy it."
Long Tianze spoke in a relaxed manner, but Mo Qingyan only nodded his head with a light smile, and did not take it to heart.
Lin Zifeng, who was standing at the side, could tell that Mo Qingyan wanted to buy some pastries. She wanted to leave as soon as possible, but unfortunately, Long Tianze misunderstood her meaning.
After pausing for a moment, he opened his mouth and said, "Ninth Prince, the military drill grounds is being drilled today, so there will be many generals from the capital present. Why don't you come over and take a look?"
