Chapter 53: Let’s go, anywhere is fine!
Li Mo walked back with his bamboo pole, all the way thinking about why Sister Zi did this. If she gives herself half, isn’t that a loss for her?
If silk stockings, bras, and high heels can become popular, the profits will be quite substantial!
Sister Zi is resolute, and Li Mo’s refusal is useless.
To be honest, Li Mo is actually quite happy deep down. Who would complain about having too much money?
The first thing he thought of was to go back and tell his wife the good news. To make his wife happy. But as he walked down the path to the courtyard, Li Mo’s steps suddenly hesitated.
“Strange, why isn’t my wife waiting for me at the door today?”
Li Mo touched his nose, feeling puzzled as he walked towards the house!
Li Mo’s spiritual consciousness now covers a radius of about fifty meters.
Although he hadn’t entered the house yet, after he spread out his divine sense, the situation in the entirely house could be clearly seen in his mind.
His wife was at home!
But there were no lights on inside.
Jing Ni was sitting at the table in a daze, looking absent-minded. She seemed as if she had lost her soul, with empty eyes, a pale face. Li Mo’s heart tightened immediately, he pushed open the door and walked in.
“Honey, honey? What’s wrong with you?”
Li Mo put down the bamboo pole in his hand and urgently touched Jing Ni’s icy face. The temperature on his palm seemed to pull Jing Ni out of an icy abyss.
Hearing Li Mo’s voice, she, like a spiritual cultivator who had suddenly awakened, tightly hugged his broad body!
“Honey, what’s wrong with you?”
Li Mo held Jing Ni, whose delicate body was trembling slightly, and asked urgently.
Jing Ni remained silent, tightening her arms around him, just shaking her head repeatedly.
“What’s wrong? Can you tell me?”
Li Mo felt a pang in his heart; his wife had never been like this before. Jing Ni threw herself into his arms, as if she was afraid he would disappear the next moment.
Pressing her icy cheek against Li Mo’s chest, she listened to his strong heartbeat, shaking her head again. Li Mo’s heart ached; he gently stroked her cheek and asked softly, “Then can I ask two questions, okay?”
Jing Ni was silent for a moment before nodding slightly.
“Has someone bullied you?”
Jing Ni seemed to be recalling something; after a long time, she slowly shook her head.
“Was someone threatening you?”
With her eyes closed, Jing Ni shook her head again and in a hoarse voice said, “Don’t… don’t ask, please, husband, don’t ask, alright?”
Li Mo sighed with relief and gently patted her head.
“Alright, I won’t ask anymore!”
As long as his wife was okay. Everything else, she would tell him when she wanted to.
As for asking about Yan Lingji or the matter of opening a store, he had long pushed them to the back of his mind.
The dim room fell into silence; the two embraced tightly, and in that moment, it seemed like only the two of them existed in the whole world. After some time passed, Jing Ni, nestled in Li Mo’s arms, suddenly moved her head.
Li Mo loosened his arm, and Jing Ni raised her head from his embrace. Holding his cheeks with both hands, she stared into his eyes intently and softly said, “Husband, let’s go.”
Li Mo was stunned, “Go? Where to?”
Jing Ni shook her head, saying word by word, “Anywhere is fine as long as we leave this place, as long as I’m with you. Yan Kingdom, Qi Kingdom, border regions, even the grasslands, are all fine.”
“As long as we can leave this place, okay?”
Without hesitation, Li Mo agreed, “Alright, we’ll leave this place. When does my wife want to go?”
Jing Ni’s mouth twitched, as if she wanted to smile but couldn’t.
“Tonight, now.” Jing Ni’s urgent attitude left Li Mo dumbfounded. After a moment of thought, he agreed, “Then we’ll leave tonight. We’ll pack up, then go buy a carriage. Wherever my wife wants to go, I’ll accompany you.”
Finally, a faint smile appeared on Jing Ni’s face, and her cold lips pressed against Li Mo’s. The two intertwined for a long time before Jing Ni suddenly remembered something.
Giving Li Mo a push, she said, “I’ll pack things at home, you go buy the carriage first, and also… say goodbye.”
Li Mo understood what she meant by saying goodbye. However, he shook his head, saying, “We’ll pack up together and leave together.”
He was worried about leaving Jing Ni alone in this state. Jing Ni’s attitude was resolute, gently touching his cheek, she said, “I’ll be fine, trust me, okay?”
Li Mo hesitated for a moment before nodding, then took out a bag of gold and left the house.
He had just left, and the Jing Ni brought a hoe to the yard immediately. If she followed Li Mo out now, those people would easily track her without any means to defend herself.
Only with the Jing Ni sword in hand, she was the one who made the seven countries fear Jing Ni!
A brand new carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of Purple Orchid Pavilion.
The girl outside saw it and immediately went to greet. This carriage was not something ordinary people could afford.
In the backyard of Purple Orchid Pavilion, the room of Sister Zi still had candles lit.
The table in front of her was filled with bamboo slips, and the abacus given to her by Li Mo was making a clattering sound. The more she calculated, the more Sister Zi became attached to this thing.
As she continued calculating, a scene suddenly appeared in Sister Zi’s mind. A blind man sat straight at the table, though unable to see, he could manipulate the abacus with precision.
A smile slowly appeared on Sister Zi’s face, inwardly laughing at herself for being infatuated again.
Knock knock!
The closed door was suddenly knocked, and Sister Zi said without lifting her head, “Come in.”
At this hour, the only person who would come to her was Nongyu. Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Sister Zi, still with her head down, jokingly said, “Are you here again to sleep with me? When I get married in the future, I’ll take you with me, and we can all sleep together, okay?”
As soon as Li Mo, who had just entered the room, heard this, he was surprised. He knew Sister Zi was referring to Nongyu. But what kind of ambiguous words are these?
