CH 44

Lu Shiqian’s eyebrows arched up, and she fished out 10 gold coins from her purse which she handed to Qin Xingluo. “Go find some place yourself! I don’t have space here for your royal highness!”

“Wifey, if you… if you really want Young Master Wei, I won’t bother you any longer. For real! Just please don’t chase me away!” Qin Xingluo pointed to Wei Mo and cried.

The adventurers in the inn all glared at Lu Shiqian angrily: this woman is too much! Such cruelness! They looked at Wei Mo and reaffirmed their opinion.

Lu Shiqian arched an eyebrow: wow, this kid’s pretty good at acting! Looking at that expression, at that pitiful look on his face, really makes you sympathize with him. If she was not Lu Shiqian and instead some random passerby, there’s an 80% chance she would’ve believed him. His acting is just too good!

Wei Mo listened to Qin Xingluo invert black and white and got so heated he lifted him up by his collar. He angrily said, “If you keep spouting nonsense, your grandpa will smash your head open!” He doesn’t like seeing other people threatening her, but he hates seeing this nuisance calling her ‘wifey’ even more! So irritating!

Qin Xingluo’s eyes were like thorns, he spoke in a low voice that could only be heard by those immediately around him: “Listen up, if you dare to lay a hand on me, I’ll destroy that woman’s home. Don’t doubt that I have the ability to!”

Home? That woman’s home? What is a home? Is it that thing he was driven out of when he was a child? Or was it those eyes filled with hatred that wished he would kick the bucket already? Eyes that wished a terrible death upon him? Or was it that fearful expression? What is a home? Home is what? Is it necessary to have a home? Wei Mo’s heart turned around and around and finally released his grip on Qin Xingluo. His heart felt like it was smashed by a boulder and he slowly retreated behind Lu Shiqian. 

He’s still not strong enough! If he was as strong as that old-coot-that-won’t-die, no one would be able to threaten him using that woman. He would also be able to claim that woman for himself… and take her under his wing! He has to get even stronger!

Lu Shiqian saw Wei Mo’s conflicted expression and concernedly asked, “What did that guy say to you?”

Lying in bed, Lu Shiqian pondered how to get Wei Mo to reveal what Qin Xingluo said to him. Qin Xingluo is very sly, he definitely said something unforgivable!

No more hesitating! She knocked on the door to Wei Mo’s room.

“A’Qian? Do you need something?” The one who opened the door was actually the black-haired Wei Mo.

“Eh…?” Lu Shiqian was stunned speechless. The things she can say to the silver-haired Wei Mo may not be able to be said to the black-haired one.

Wei Mo’s face turned red, eyes like flowers that had just bloomed in spring: “A’Qian, I feel like I haven’t seen you for a long time.” His face turned even redder after saying that.
