"Would you like to check it again?"
"Matters involving Silver are never trivial, better not get it wrong!"
It took Yun Ran quite some time to manage to say this.
In her heart, there was still a sliver of hope...
Nangong Mo raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at her with a half-smile, "What my dear consort said is very true, however, this bag indeed contains the property stolen from the mansion."
Feng Xuan very cooperatively took out a pair of glass lamps from the burlap sack, showing them to Yun Ran:
"Please look, Consort. Here’s the mark of our mansion."
Yun Ran glanced with pain, only to see the bottom of the crystal-clear glass lamps engraved with a flamboyant ’Qin’ character.
Yun Ran’s little heart trembled. That flicker of hope struggled and refused to die out, "What about the others? Do they all have marks?"
Feng Xuan took out several more rare treasures in succession, each marked with the Prince Qin Mansion’s emblem.
[These are all the return gifts Nangong Mo, that prodigal man, previously sent to the Minister Mansion?!]
[Blinded by the beauty of those treasures at the time, I forgot to check them carefully...]
[Who could have thought the sack would end up in their hands!]
[This is truly a case of dying before achieving success! Heartbreaking!]
Nangong Mo curled his lips, looking at the girl’s utterly dejected expression, teasingly raised an eyebrow, "My dear consort, have you seen clearly now? Are you reassured?"
What Yun Ran heard was: Have you opened your dog eyes wide enough to see the truth? Have you given up?
[No, giving up is impossible!]
Yun Ran spun on her heel, coming up behind Nangong Mo, placing her hands on his shoulders, "My lord, actually, there’s something I haven’t told you..."
"I was admiring the moon nearby just now, then suddenly saw a man in black dash past me."
"So I chased him to kill him! He might have thought the sack was too heavy, affecting his escape speed, so he tossed it aside."
"At the time, I didn’t know what was inside the sack, just kept chasing and chasing until I was far away!"
Look at the little rascal lying through her teeth without batting an eyelid!
"Did you catch him then?"
"Uh... No, he got away."
Ha! Of course not! That imaginary man in black!
"Oh? So, the fact that this property has been recovered, means my dear consort deserves exceptional credit!"
[So hurry up and give me the sack as a reward!]
Nangong Mo gently raised an eyebrow, looking at the little girl’s eager face gazing at him with expectation, the corners of his mouth gradually lifted.
No matter how you look at her, the little rascal resembles a kitten waiting for its master to reward her with fish, both pitiful and adorable.
The man furrowed his brow slightly, thoughtfully, "What should I reward you with?"
"Hmm, I’ll reward you with a candy!"
She must have heard wrong!
In the next moment, the man’s hand extended in front of her, a colorful candy lying in his palm.
[Wide-eyed and dumbfounded! Unbelievable! This can’t be real!]
"My dear consort, aren’t you fond of eating sweets? Why not eat this?"
[I want to eat Silver! The silver note is also good!]
The corners of the man’s mouth twitched slightly, seemingly in thought, "Looks like you want me to feed you, so be it."
With those words, his long arm stretched out, and Yun Ran felt herself spin around, landing on Nangong Mo’s lap.
He wrapped an arm tightly around her waist, feeding the candy into her mouth, bent his head slightly and chuckled softly in her ear, "Is it sweet? Do you like it?"
