The snow continued to fall.
There was already a thick pile of snow on the road.
One of Luo Qingzhou’s shoes was wet. On the way back, he looked a little dazed and disheveled.
Last night’s experience was like a nightmare.
However, it was not all nightmares.
The nightmare came from his mother-in-law, who kept scaring him and making his heart almost jump out of his throat several times.
However, the girl on the bed added something embarrassing and unforgettable to that nightmare.
Of course, what he felt for her was not just lust.
He thought to himself that since he was so embarrassed last night and had done something so disrespectful like laying together with the Second Young Miss Qin, he should not go there again in the future.
However, if he did not go, would he seem like those scumbags who left the girl after taking advantage of her? He would definitely seem like an irresponsible man.
Of course, his relationship with Second Young Miss Qin was not anything like that.
However, would it be awkward the next time they met?
Luo Qingzhou could not help but sigh. He still felt a lingering fear when he thought of his mother-in-law.
Hmm?
When he was about to reach his small courtyard, he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking over from the snow in front of him.
She was wearing a light green dress. Her figure was slender and graceful, but her face was as cold as snow.
She held a sword in her hand and stared at him coldly.
Luo Qingzhou stopped walking.
Xia Chan also stopped walking.
The two of them were separated by the snow and wind. It was as if they were two peerless experts from different places who had long agreed to meet here. It seemed like the atmosphere before a duel.
Luo Qingzhou was no match for her and directly admitted defeat. He walked over and cupped his hands. “Miss Xia Chan, where did you go so early?”
In that direction, other than where he lived, it could only be Moonlight Rain Court.
Of course, it was also possible that she was bored and wandered about.
The girl looked at him coldly. She stood motionless in the snow. Only her smooth hair and light green dress swayed gently in the cold wind.
Luo Qingzhou thought that she would still not respond like before. However, just as he was about to leave, the girl suddenly spoke, and she did not stutter as much as before. “Where… did you go last night?”
However, she still sounded very cold.
Luo Qingzhou froze for a bit. He looked at her and said calmly, “Last night? Of course, I was sleeping at home. I woke up very early, so I came out to walk around the residence. What’s wrong? Miss Xia Chan, what’s the matter?”
The girl gripped the sword in her hand tightly and stared at him coldly for a while before saying, “You’re lying.”
Luo Qingzhou stood rooted to the spot with fear.
The girl did not say anything else. Her pretty face was as cold as ice as she left.
Luo Qingzhou stood there, stunned. He turned around and looked at her thin figure gradually walking away. He thought to himself, “Did this girl go to my courtyard to stand guard again last night?’
It was getting late, and he still had to go out of the city to do a mission.
He did not think too much about it and quickly returned to his small courtyard.
Xiao Die was sitting alone under the roof at the door, frowning in a daze. When she saw that he was finally back, she immediately stood up in surprise and ran over. She threw herself into his arms and said with a sobbing tone, “Young Master, why didn’t you come back last night? You scared me to death. Why didn’t you tell me in advance? I’ve been waiting for you all night.”
Luo Qingzhou sighed inwardly and reached out to pat her head. “I had something on at the last minute and couldn’t come back in time to inform you.
Sillv girl, don’t wait for me next time. If it’s time to sleep, vou can sleep bv yourself, do you understand?”
The little girl buried her head in his arms and hugged him tightly. She sobbed and said, “Young Master, I can’t sleep without you around. I thought… I thought that you had abandoned me and ran away alone.”
Luo Qingzhou was stunned when he heard that. “Why should I run?”
The little girl raised her tender and beautiful face. Her eyes were red and puffy. “You’re married, but your wife doesn’t sleep with you. You’re depressed, so you left.
Luo Qingzhou could not help but laugh when he heard that. Looking at her delicate and attractive face, he suddenly bent down and grabbed onto her perky butt with both hands. He carried her up and walked into the house. “Silly girl, didn’t I tell you long ago that it doesn’t matter if I have a wife or not? It’s enough that I have Xiao Die with me. Why are you letting your imagination run wild again? Even if I want to leave, I’ll bring you along.”
When he suddenly carried her, Xiao Die’s feet left the ground and her body straightened. She hugged his neck with her arms and said with a red face, “But… But I haven’t grown up yet. You despise me…”
Luo Qingzhou carried her into the house and placed her on the table in the living room. He kissed her lips and said, “There’s no hurry. Isn’t it almost the new year? You will grow up after the new year.”
The little girl was embarrassed and happy. She bit her lips and said bashfully, “Really? You won’t lie to me this time, right? Will you really… want me after the new year, Young Master?”
Luo Qingzhou pinched her face and walked toward the room. “A gentleman’s word…”
The little girl immediately jumped off the table and said happily with a red face, “Cannot be taken back!”
Luo Qingzhou returned to his room and remarked, “All right, I’ll let you get back to your work. I still have to go out later. I’ll probably only be back tonight.”
The little girl immediately nodded and happily returned to her room to get the half-embroidered peony. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something and knocked on the door. “Oh right! Young Master, when I went out to open the door this morning, I saw Xia Chan standing alone at the entrance. The sky was still dark and it was so cold, I did not know why she was standing there. I asked her, but she did not answer and immediately left..”
