Chapter 278:100: Strolling Together in the Temple Fair, Elderly Zheng Begins the Investigation !
Although Niuwang Temple was located at the top of the hill, Ni Yang didn’t feel tired at all on the way up.
Mo Qishen was secretly surprised.
His wife was too strong!
She climbed such a high mountain without even a trace of blush on her face.
He had been waiting for Ni Yang to become unable to keep climbing, so he could step in and play the hero to save his damsel in distress.
But now it seemed that he had thought too much.
Looking down from the high vantage point of the mountain, there was a boundless white as far as the eye could see, which was extraordinarily spectacular.
The temple at the top of the mountain was still crowded with various vendors.
Sugar dolls, candied hawthorns, sugarcanes, Buddha beads, bracelet, and other knick-knacks were all present, making it a paradise for children! This scene could not be found in the future life!
“Yangyang, shall we go over there for a look?” Mo Qishen suggested.
“Alright.” Ni Yang nodded.
Mo Qishen bought two sticks of candied hawthorn and handed one to Ni Yang.
Ni Yang reached out and took it, peeled off the sugar paper, bit into it lightly, and found it was sour, sweet, and very delicious.
The air in this era had not yet been polluted, so even the candied hawthorns tasted much more delicious than those of the future.
This was Ni Yang’s first time at such a temple fair. She was overjoyed like a child, buying and eating whatever she saw, not hesitating to spend money at all.
Mo Qishen followed behind her, and before a moment had passed, his hands were filled with belongings.
Li Xianxian and Mo Baichuan also came.
Although the two walked shoulder to shoulder, they lacked a natural feeling.
Mo Baichuan always had a cold expression, while Li Xianxian was cautiously trying to please him, creating a feeling like a warm face pressed against a cold butt.
Yet, Li Xianxian thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.
After all, Mo Baichuan was a mysterious big shot, and it was normal for him to have his own temper; she certainly couldn’t expect him, a big man, to sweettalk her, right?
In this world, how many successful men are willing to humble themselves to coax women?
As long as Li Xianxian knew that she was in Mo Baichuan’s heart, that was more than enough for her.
“Baichuan, I’ve heard that the incense in this place is very efficacious. Let’s go burn some incense sticks, shall we?” Li Xianxian looked up at Mo Baichuan, her eyes full of infatuation.
Mo Baichuan glanced at the surging crowd and impatiently responded, “You go by yourself.”
Just then, a familiar figure crossed his line of sight.
She wore a knee-length red down jacket, her black, glossy hair tied in a bun, revealing a delicate, fair neck. Her adorable smile and beautiful eyes made her look extremely attractive. The usually bulky down jacket didn’t look bulky at all on her, but rather accentuated her tall figure and slim waist.
The red color was ordinarily gaudy, but on her, it only emphasized her youthful beauty, outshining everything else around.
Mo Baichuan was suddenly reminded of the first time he saw her in Dam Village.
The first time he saw her, he thought she was no different from rural girls in the mountains. Yet, when she spoke, she dazzled him!
Although Mo Baichuan was reluctant to admit it, on that occasion, Ni Yang did truly save him.
If Ni Yang hadn’t displayed such courage in the face of danger, convincingly faking being a local to fool those people, he might be dead by now.
Beside Ni Yang, Mo Baichuan also spotted a person he found very annoying.
In Mo Baichuan’s view, Mo Qishen was useless apart from his good looks.
Even if Ni Yang wanted to attract his attention, she should not have chosen Mo Qishen.
Because Mo Qishen was absolutely no match for him.
Li Xianxian also noticed Mo Qishen and Ni Yang. She carefully gripped Mo Baichuan’s hand, “Baichuan, shall we go greet Yangyang and Uncle Six?”
Mo Baichuan didn’t respond, but his body faithfully followed Li Xianxian.
Seeing him , Li Xianxian was filled with joy.
She felt that the only reason Mo Baichuan agreed to extend a greeting was because of her.
Knowing uncle and nephew didn’t get along, and that as far as she knew, Mo Baichuan didn’t have a good impression of Ni Yang and even disliked her.
“Yangyang, Uncle Six, Happy New Year,” Li Xianxian took the initiative to greet.
Ni Yang seemed to have become even more beautiful after not seeing her for a month.
She was so beautiful that it made one jealous.
But what use was beauty?
Could beauty be eaten?
Now that Ni Yang had chosen to be with a useless man like Mo Qishen, suffering was undoubtedly waiting for her in the future.
Because in Li Xianxian’s memories of her past life, the one who ended up inheriting the Mo Family was not Mo Qishen at all.
