Chapter 558: Can Let You Devour Completely
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
On the day Mo Tu and Que Que arrived, Su Ying happened to be on her way to give Lin Zhuyu a check-up.
Bai Shuang had been accompanying Lin Zhuyu in her residence during this period. After recuperating for a number of days, Lin Zhuyu’s complexion looked visibly better.
After taking her pulse, Su Ying confirmed that Lin Zhuyu’s body was fine, aside from being weak.
“You are indeed much better, but you should stay in a warm place as far as possible before the warm spring weather arrives. Your body is still too weak, and you’ll catch a cold if you’re not careful.”
Lin Zhuyu gave her acknowledgment obediently as she did not want Su Ying to worry too much. “Your Imperial Highness, don’t worry. I have already gotten over it. I will definitely take good care of my body and not let Your Imperial Highness worry.”
Su Ying saw that Lin Zhuyu had indeed gained some weight now, but there was still a gloomy look in her eyes that couldn’t be dispelled. This matter had dealt a huge blow to her, and it wouldn’t be easy for her to recover in such a short time.
In order to prevent Lin Zhuyu from dwelling needlessly on insignificant things, Su Ying decided to leave Bai Shuang behind to continue accompanying her. It wouldn’t be too late for Bai Shuang to return to the palace after Lin Zhuyu’s condition improved further.
When Su Ying was leaving, Bai Shuang escorted her all the way to the door. “Take good care of her. She’s a smart person, but she’s also p.r.o.ne to taking things too hard. If gentle words don’t work, then use harsh words. She’ll come around to it eventually. She can’t keep immersing herself in the pain of the past,” Su Ying instructed.
After spending all this while with her, Bai Shuang could sense the change in Lin Zhuyu’s emotions. “Yes, Your Imperial Highness. I will make sure she pulls herself together before leaving.”
Su Ying nodded and left with Zhou Qing.
When she received Mo Tu’s letter yesterday, he wrote that they had already settled down in the capital city.
The horse carriage pa.s.sed through the bustling streets and stopped at an inconspicuous small private courtyard house.
Su Ying told Zhou Qing and the rest to wait at the intersection on the opposite street. Zhou Qing didn’t ask any questions and left with the coachman and the rest.
Su Ying walked to the door and knocked on it politely with her knuckles.
A moment later, an aged voice answered the door. “Coming. Who is it?”
The courtyard gate swung open, and an old man with white hair and beard stuck his head out.
“I’m looking for Que Que.”
The old man turned sideways to let Su Ying in upon hearing that.
The courtyard gate was then closed, cutting off the line of sight from outside.
This was a courtyard house with three internal courtyards. There was only a small courtyard at the entrance. If one walked right in, he would reach the main hall.
As soon as she entered, Su Ying saw a familiar figure walking out.
“It’s Big Sister. It’s really Big Sister!” When Que Que saw Su Ying, she happily dashed over and hugged Su Ying’s leg.
“Big Sister, I miss you so much.”
Su Ying bent down and picked her up. “Big Sister misses you too. You seem to have grown a lot taller.”
Que Que hugged Su Ying’s neck and kissed her on the cheek. After that, she looked at her shyly. “I’ve grown taller. I listened to Big Sister and ate my meals properly. I’ll definitely grow as tall as Big Sister.”
Su Ying put her down and held her hand as they walked into the hall. “Where’s your big brother?”
Que Que blinked her eyes as she replied, “Big Brother said that Big Sister will come today so he is in the kitchen cooking some delicious food for Big Sister.” “Oh? What kind of delicious food?”
After being back in the capital city for so long, Su Ying had begun to miss the various seafood dishes that Mo Tu made.
Que Que smiled so widely that a row of tiny milk teeth was revealed. “Big Sister will know in a while. Big Brother said that Big Sister is not allowed to go to the kitchen and told me to wait here with Big Sister.”
Su Ying took Que Que’s hand and sat down on a chair. “Alright, I won’t go. I’ll just sit here and wait for the food.”
The old man who had opened the gate for Su Ying just now brought some snacks over. “Mistress, have a taste. These are all snacks that I bought from the street this morning.”
Su Ying nodded slightly, and the old man excused himself.
Que Que looked at the snacks eagerly and then reached out to pick up a piece and handed it to Su Ying. “Big Sister, have some. These snacks are delicious. Grandpa bought them for me last night.”
The person Mo Tu had placed here was definitely someone he trusted. Su Ying smiled as she accepted the snacks. The snacks were no longer hot, but she could still smell the faint fragrance of rice as she held it in her hand.
Su Ying had only taken a bite when she detected a rich fragrant aroma wafting over.
She turned around and saw Mo Tu walking toward her with a huge basin.
“Your subordinate has come to pay his respects to you, Sect Master.” Mo Tu placed the basin that was as wide as his body on the table. The fragrance that Su Ying had smelled earlier came from this basin.
“What is this? It smells so good.”
Su Ying withdrew her gaze from the basin and looked at Mo Tu.
He had dyed his white hair black at some point. His black hair made his exquisite facial features stand out even more, making him look even more handsome like a graceful young master. His green robe added an air of elegance to his demeanor. It made him look completely different from the Mo Tu Su Ying knew before.
When Mo Tu met Su Ying’s gaze, an odd look flashed across the depths of his eyes, but he quickly hid it. He smiled brightly and his eyes were twinkling with joy. “Could it be that Sect Master has been charmed by my handsome appearance? Your subordinate heard that the empress of the previous dynasty also secretly kept a male harem of a few male gigolos. Although it’s somewhat ign.o.ble, if you wish to establish one, it’s not impossible, Sect Master.”
Su Ying withdrew her gaze and walked over to the table. She reached out and picked up a prawn the size of her palm and started eating. “What’s a gigolo? Can I eat it?”
Mo Tu walked over to Su Ying’s side. He leaned so close that he was almost sticking his entire body to her. “Of course. It’s the kind that can let you completely devour him.”
Su Ying tossed the prawn head aside and pushed Mo Tu away with her greasy hand. “Don’t get in the way.”
Mo Tu looked at the greasy palm print on his chest and gave a deep gasp.
By the time he returned after changing into a clean robe, a large basin of seafood had already entered Su Ying and Que Que’s stomachs.
“Big Brother, I kept a bowl of peeled prawns for you. Eat it quickly.”
Mo Tu sighed in his heart. Indeed, he did not raise this girl for nothing.
However, before his hand could reach out, the bowl was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Su Ying.
“Your big brother is allergic to prawns, so let me eat it for him.”
Su Ying finished the prawns in two or three bites.
Que Que looked helpless. Mo Tu shrugged and sat down on the chair.
“Your subordinate worked so hard to bring it here. Surely you should leave a bite for your subordinate, right?”
Su Ying placed the bowl on the table and glared at him icily. “You haven’t even cleared up your work, yet you still want to eat? That basin of seafood just now was at most a token of apology from you.”
Mo Tu’s guileless eyes protested his innocence. “Sect Master, don’t accuse me like this. I only arrived a little late. Surely I don’t have to apologize, do I?”
Su Ying gave a scornful laugh. “There’s an idiot in the Red Demon Sect. Do you think you should apologize to me?”
Mo Tu’s expression turned serious when Su Ying brought up the Red Demon Sect. “Idiot?”
Su Ying took out the Fire Token and threw it in front of Mo Tu. “Take a look. Whose token is this?”
Mo Tu picked up the token and recognized it at a glance. “It belongs to the capital city’s branch.” Previously, the leader of the branch in the capital city was captured. Later on, the Fire Token probably fell into the hands of the deputy branch leader. However, Mo Tu suffered from amnesia and was lost on the island during that period of time, so he only knew about what had happened here after the incident.
“Sect Master, after you arrived at the capital city, have you seen the present leader in charge?”
Su Ying frowned slightly. “Yes..”
