Chapter 281 Future Cousin, Do It
Xia Mo shook his head slightly, "Nothing, I just think your reaction is a bit exaggerated... I almost forgot that you are the person closest to my uncle. It's better to ask you than to ask Shopkeeper Qin."
Wei Wu: “…”
What a sin! Why wasn't he so frightened just now?! What can he say?!
"Yeah, Wei Wu, tell me, is my cousin still pestering Master Liu? Has he been chased out by Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu?"
Qin Ji curled his lips, and a terrifying light flashed in his eyes. Even Ling Chuan stared at Wei Wu without blinking.
The topic had obviously gone off topic, but at this moment, Wei Wu's hesitant look had aroused Xia Mo's curiosity, so he didn't want to correct it. After all, "different paths lead to the same destination."
"Hehe..." Wei Wu, who was under great pressure, laughed dryly twice before he said vaguely, "Master Qiu and Master Li are close friends, so they naturally have a good relationship."
"Oh? How do you say he has entered the house?"
Qin Ji smiled, his eyes curved into an arc, like a kind father who saw his stupid son grow up.
Wei Wu's mouth twitched. What kind of vicious words were these?
Xia Mo put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, trying not to laugh.
"Wei Wu, you don't have to feel pressured. We are all family here. If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, your uncle won't know."
"Mo'er is right." said Ling, who dotes on her husband excessively.
"That's right, Wei Wu, look, your brother-in-law and young master have spoken, so don't hide it. We are all family, family." Qin Ji winked.
Wei Wu wanted to cry but had no tears. He spread his hands and said, "I really didn't hide anything. Master Qiu and Master Li have a sincere friendship. As usual, it is normal for Master Li to come in and out of the Liu Mansion."
"Yeah." Qin Ji nodded as if it was a matter of fact, then suddenly smiled and said, "I understand."
Wei Wu was ashamed:...What do you understand?
"Manager Qin, you seem very happy. What did you realize? Share it with us."
Xia Mo simply ignored Wei Wu who couldn't trick anyone into saying anything and looked at Qin Ji who was smiling with a chilling look.
Qin Ji smiled evilly, "My foul-mouthed cousin is probably going to marry into a wealthy family. I'm of course happy that he can bully others."
As he said that, he raised the bowl and saluted towards Xia Mo and Ling Chuan, "Come on, future cousins, have a bowl."
Xia Mo chuckled, "It's not even close, but I still have to thank Shopkeeper Qin for taking care of me, and thank you for your hard work this time. Cheers."
After saying that, Xia Mo picked up the scented tea that Ling Chuan had poured for him, raised it in the direction of Qin Ji and Wei Wu, then turned to Ling Chuan with a smile.
Ling Chuan had been watching him, so when Xia Mo looked at him, he immediately raised the bowl and showed respect.
Seeing that the three toasted, Wei Wu thought that if he didn't toast, wouldn't it be unsociable? Would it be disrespectful? So he followed suit and toasted in turn, then drank it all in one gulp.
Ah, good tea...
Xia Mo put down the bowl and said to Wei Wu: "Wei Wu, uncle would like to trouble you to help take care of it. If there is anything, you can come to us directly. Maybe we can help a little."
"No trouble. Young master, it is my duty to protect Young Master Qiu!" Wei Wu frowned and said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
Xia Mo nodded with satisfaction, "That's good."
He didn't want to get involved in this mess, but if Liu Qiuwu and the two elders of the Liu family were threatened with their lives, he would be willing to lend a helping hand if he could, because he had accepted Liu Qiuyun's gift.
As the saying goes, one who eats someone's food should be grateful, and one who receives someone's money should be grateful.
Afterwards, the four of them chatted for another quarter of an hour.
Until the end of the conversation, they didn't mention a word about what happened in the capital, but Xia Mo had a feeling that everyone knew it.
"Ze brother, Lingchuan, it's getting late. I'll go back first." Qin Ji stood up and said after glancing outside.
"Me too." Wei Wu also stood up and looked at Xia Mo and Ling Chuan.
"Young Master, Young Son-in-law, the situation is urgent. I have to go back and report to Young Master Qiu as soon as possible. I'll take my leave now."
Xia Mo also knew that there was no time to waste, so he did not force the two of them to stay, and he and Ling Chuan sent them to the door together.
Before leaving, Qin Ji suddenly turned around and said to Xia Mo: "Brother Ze, my cousin treats Master Liu like an eyeball, and he won't make things difficult for Master Liu."
It was a very incoherent sentence, but Xia Mo understood it, so he smiled and replied, "Okay, I understand."
Wei Wu, who was a few steps away, paused: Young Master Qiu, it seems that the young master has been bribed by Young Master Li!
Ling Chuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the duo who were playing mute magic with his clear black and white eyes.
His little brother...seems to be particularly interested in this kind of matchmaking?
Feeling Ling Chuan's gaze, Qin Ji curled his lips, opened the fan and waved it twice in a showy manner.
"We'll talk some other day."
"it is good……"
Once the two of them left, Xia Mo could no longer pretend to be calm.
He quickly bolted the door, then pulled Lingchuan back into the room.
"Brother Chuan, look." Xia Mo took out the letter and handed it to Ling Chuan.
Looking at the young man's frowning brows, Ling Chuan's eyes darkened and he opened it immediately after taking it.
I read ten lines at a glance and finished reading the content in a short while.
Ling Chuan's eyes were dark, he raised his head and said to the frowning boy, "At this juncture, it is indeed inconvenient for him to take you back to the Liu family."
"Yeah, so I asked Wei Wu to tell him not to worry about us. Sigh...Brother Chuan, what do you think of seeing two old acquaintances on the list? Especially this 'bitch', do you want to kill him?"
Dog bitch? Gao Jianren?
Lingchuan smiled, thinking he was naughty.
You can still laugh at this time? Xia Mo looked suspicious.
The two people's eyes met and collided, as if they could see into each other's heart.
"Don't you want to? But I don't think you, Brother Chuan, are the kind of person who would be willing to suffer in silence."
As Xia Mo spoke, he took out a fire starter from the space, then lit the letter paper he had taken from the man's hand and burned it.
"If he can betray me, he can betray the next one." Ling Chuan gave the young man a look that said 'is that so'.
"So he is not the third prince's die-hard supporter?" Xia Mo was surprised and almost forgot that he was playing with fire.
"Be careful." Ling Chuan's smile faded and he frowned to remind her.
"Oh, please answer my question." He still has many questions to ask.
Xia Mo complained inwardly, and tilted the hand holding the letter towards the direction that was not burned. When it was almost burned, he let go of it.
The ashes fell, carrying with them a final spark.
"Maybe." Ling Chuan waved away the ashes that floated onto the table and gave an ambiguous answer.
Maybe? Oh, that's it, as long as the third prince falls from power.
"Brother Chuan, is that guy really dying? And what about that Prince Qiao? What kind of person is he?"
When Ling Chuan suddenly heard the young man asking about Qiao Wenjin's character, he suddenly remembered the time when they were engaged. He thought the young man was jealous and was immediately happy, but he didn't show it on his face.
