Chapter 125: Qian Renxue’s Inner Helplessness
After Ling Mo and Ning Rongrong returned, they spent more than a month living freely at Shrek! It was simply indulgence in pleasure.
Imagine, playing this kind of group activity every day!
Just thinking about it feels exciting.
“Oh no, this won’t do! If it goes on like this, my studies will be neglected…”
This morning, Ling Mo struggled to get up from the Cold Jade Bed, only to be pulled back by Ning Rongrong.
It wasn’t until noon that Ling Mo finally escaped!
After signing a truce agreement with those two girls, Ling Mo dejectedly left Shrek Academy.
“I wonder how Dugu Bo’s preparations are going…”
After leaving Shrek Academy, Ling Mo headed toward the Ghost Gate.
By his calculations, the Ghost Gate had already been fully constructed, and if there were no accidents, today was the final day of the project.
As he passed through west of Heaven Dou City and was about to leave, he suddenly spotted an approaching guard team ahead.
Among them was a figure very familiar to Ling Mo!
Xue Qinghe
That is, Qian Renxue!
“Hmm? What is this about?”
The guard team passed through west of the city, heading who knows where!
In the guard team, Qian Renxue also spotted Ling Mo, and her face immediately turned panicked.
At present, Ling Mo was the only one who knew her identity, and her meticulously planned scheme for many years was completely in his hands.
Once her identity was exposed, the next scene would be Spirit Hall and Heaven Dou Empire formally clashing.
Ling Mo revealed a profound smile and quietly watched her!
In the previous two encounters, she had wanted to draw her sword and chase him down upon seeing him, but now… in Heaven Dou City, she appeared as the Crown Prince and didn’t dare make a move.
Not only did she not dare make a move, she became even more panicked, inwardly praying nonstop that Ling Mo wouldn’t recognize her.
Who knew, Ling Mo cast a meaningful glance her way, and she panicked instantly.
“Insolent! Who dares block my Imperial Guard…”
Ling Mo suddenly blocked the guard team’s path, standing straight in the middle of the road.
This immediately provoked dissatisfaction from many, and Qian Renxue was even more panicked, not daring to show her face.
“Good fellow, you wanted to hack me with your sword, now I’ll let you know what society’s dangers are like.”
Blocking the middle of the road, Ling Mo inwardly sneered cunningly!
What was he going to do?
“Who are you? How dare you shout in front of me, call out your master, is this a place for you to speak? Get lost…”
Facing the guard team’s hostility, Ling Mo coldly swept his gaze over them, his Dual Pupils activating, causing the opponents’ bodies to tremble instantly, as if suffering some soul attack.
“What’s going on?”
Qian Renxue pretended to casually step out; she had spotted Ling Mo long ago and had been avoiding him.
She hadn’t expected to ultimately escape this guy’s entanglement.
“Damn rogue, always opposing me…” She inwardly cursed Ling Mo nonstop, wishing she could pin him down and rub him into the ground.
Though her heart was filled with a thousand reluctances, Qian Renxue still stepped out.
“Your Highness, this rogue suddenly blocked the imperial carriage, I don’t know what he wants…”
The guard team captain said respectfully.
Given the current situation, Xue Qinghe was now the future ruler of Heaven Dou Empire, second to one and above all others!
Therefore, everyone respected her greatly and didn’t dare offend her.
“Alright, I know! You all withdraw…”
Qian Renxue glared viciously at Ling Mo, not knowing what he wanted.
Whenever this guy appeared, nothing good happened to her!
To ensure her identity wasn’t exposed, the only way was to stabilize him first.
Ling Mo knew her identity, so logically, Spirit Hall shouldn’t stand by idly…
However, ever since Hu Liena and Moon Pass returned to report last time, Spirit Hall seemed to have gone silent, with no sound at all.
“Long time no see! Crown Prince? Your Highness…”
Ling Mo looked meaningfully at Qian Renxue, even though she was now appearing as Xue Qinghe.
But it couldn’t mask her captivating aura and peerless demeanor.
Ling Mo’s one sentence made Qian Renxue’s heart race up and down, especially this Crown Prince son.
Recalling last time in the Imperial Tomb, Ling Mo had repeatedly said he didn’t believe and kept wanting to touch.
Just thinking about it made her blush; she thought this guy was simply her nemesis, clearly taking advantage of her, yet she couldn’t voice her bitterness.
“Oh, it’s you! You’re blocking my path… what do you want?”
“I want…”
Ahem, sorry!
“Crown Prince Your Highness is so forgetful; if I recall correctly, it seems we still have a score to settle?”
Their conversation on the street immediately sparked discussions among bystanders.
Especially the guard team members! They knew Qian Renxue’s personality well; logically, with the Crown Prince’s status and character, how could he have dealings with such a rogue?
Discussions buzzed.
Qian Renxue’s face changed drastically; she couldn’t let these discussions continue, or the risk of exposure would be huge.
The only way now was to stabilize Ling Mo; no matter what he demanded, she couldn’t refuse.
“Damn guy, you’ve outmaneuvered me again…”
Qian Renxue gnashed her teeth, her expression quite cute.
The resentment in her eyes glared straight at Ling Mo.
“How do you want to settle it?”
“I think this isn’t the place to talk, right?”
“Fine, where do you want to talk?”
Qian Renxue didn’t refuse and couldn’t refuse.
Ling Mo’s demand hit exactly what she was thinking; this indeed wasn’t the place to talk.
“How about this, we find a place to have a drink! Chat properly, and let a cup of wine resolve our grudge, how about it?”
Ling Mo increasingly wanted to laugh; seeing Qian Renxue gnashing her teeth made him excited.
The angrier she got, the happier Ling Mo was.
With that, the two found a tavern and booked a private room; amid the buzzing discussions, they entered the private room.
The guard team soldiers stood outside the door, discussing nonstop.
“What do you think this guy’s background is? Actually acquainted with the Crown Prince.”
“No idea; logically, with the Crown Prince’s status, he couldn’t know such a rogue…”
Listening to the discussions outside while glancing panicked at the relaxed Ling Mo in the private room, Qian Renxue was extremely uneasy.
She knew that the upcoming time would surely be an unforgettable experience in her life.
“Say it, what do you want? What will it take for you to shut up? Name your conditions…”
Straight to the point, she really couldn’t stand this torment anymore.
“Don’t rush! Sit down first, let’s chat properly!”
Ling Mo smiled while pulling out the chair closest to him.
“There are quite a few people watching outside now; if you don’t want to be exposed, you’d best cooperate with me.
Otherwise… if I get angry, bad things might happen oh…”
“You…”
Qian Renxue inwardly collapsed completely, looking at Ling Mo’s handsome yet sleazy face, growing angrier the more she saw it.
He was just too infuriating.
Qian Renxue was almost certain that Ling Mo was the most difficult and sleaziest person she had ever encountered in her life.
Looking at the chair Ling Mo had pulled out, only half a meter from him, within arm’s reach.
Qian Renxue panicked instantly! This guy wouldn’t do the same as last time, would he?
Though it was also an unforgettable experience, she really didn’t want to go through it again.
“What are you spacing out for? Sit…”
“Don’t go too far…”
Her heart grew even more tense, nervous like a little girl.
Qian Renxue stared at that chair, not daring to sit no matter what.
To retreat unscathed, the only way was to stay far from Ling Mo, best to keep a safe distance.
