Chapter 377: 209, Mo Xianxian’s Dream
The scorching sun seared the heart, while a gentle breeze caressed the face.
In the small courtyard, the standoff continued, as sharp as blades and shadows of swords.
Xu Yuan knew they couldn’t keep this deadlock any longer.
Though Mo Xianxian did not show signs of madness now, the longer it dragged on, the greater the likelihood of her becoming ill.
Furthermore, Tian Liuli might not have the patience to keep this up with Mo Xianxian.
He had to find a way to break the impasse.
...
Without a change in expression, Xu Yuan used his chopsticks to take the piece of fish that both were fiercely contesting for.
If he allowed them to continue, the fish might be destroyed by the spiritual power contained in their chopsticks.
Seeing him intervene, Tian Liuli suddenly had an idea, and promptly retracted her chopsticks, silently watching him.
She did not speak, but the meaning in her eyes was self-evident.
Xu Yuan sighed silently in his heart and eventually placed a piece of fish into her bowl.
Mo Xianxian, witnessing this harmonious scene between husband and wife, seemed completely oblivious, remaining calm as she observed.
She smiled and said, “Having friends come from afar is a joy, is it not? I wonder... Mr. Xu, do you welcome this guest who has traveled from afar?”
“Of course,”
Xu Yuan smiled but deliberately pretended not to catch the hidden meaning in her words, saying, “Miss Mo, please feel free.”
Mo Xianxian was slightly disappointed, but her emotions did not fluctuate greatly.
She picked a few greens and placed them into her clean porcelain bowl, chewing thoughtfully without much change in expression.
Just as Xu Yuan racked his brain to find an excuse to send the guests away, an elegantly beautiful woman suddenly walked in from outside.
Another one? And another?
If it had been before, her displeasure with someone would likely mean that person wouldn’t live to see tomorrow’s sun.
But now, she was actually restraining herself from clashing with the woman who had provoked her, all for the sake of that man.
Unbelievable, it was truly unbelievable!
She had thought that Mo Xianxian’s emphasis on Xu Yuan was merely a smokescreen cast for the recent struggle for the position of Young Master.
But now, it seemed to be genuine?
Wen Ying looked at Mo Xianxian with a complicated gaze, unable to digest how the Witch, erratic and dreadful even in the eyes of those within the Demonic Dao, could truly be fond of him.
But what was the opportunity that led to this?
Wen Ying was certain that before this, they must have had no interaction.
She was very curious but did not dare to ask.
The demonic nature of Mo Xianxian was widely acknowledged; it wasn’t just her opinion.
Even when she was at the Nascent Soul Stage, Wen Ying had seldom acted superior in front of her, and once Mo Xianxian broke into the Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm, her role became that of a subordinate, despite being formally a Protector.
Not to mention, Mo Xianxian was clearly very upset now.
She might tolerate that man’s indiscretions, but that didn’t mean she would tolerate her own.
To be on the safe side, it was best not to touch upon this sensitive subject.
“He’s obviously already forgotten me,”
Just as Wen Ying was curbing her curiosity, ready to follow Mo Xianxian on her wanderings, Mo Xianxian suddenly spoke.
Obviously? Forgotten?
Upon hearing this, Wen Ying’s heart leaped, her intuition telling her that there was a story to uncover.
