Chapter 521 Hidden Mystery
"..."
Ye Qing'an gritted her teeth: "A short separation is a short separation, but we haven't been newlyweds at all."
"Oh." Yi Moxu nodded immediately after hearing Ye Qing'an say that.
Ye Qing'an felt a strange sense of unease, and then she heard Yi Moxu chuckle and ask, "Qing'an, are you implying something by saying that?"
What was she implying? Did she imply something?
Yi Moxu's smile remained unchanged: "Are you implying that we should have a wedding?"
"..." Ye Qing'an glared at him angrily, thinking that he was quite naive.
"Rest assured, my current status is not quite appropriate. I will definitely welcome you with a grand wedding procession at the appropriate time."
Ye Qing'an wanted to argue, but the smile on Yi Moxu's face had completely faded, and his eyes were full of seriousness, leaving Ye Qing'an momentarily speechless.
After a long pause, Ye Qing'an glanced at Yi Moxu and said, "Keep living in your dreams."
"If I could marry Qing'an in my dreams, with red candles, red curtains, and a red wedding dress, I would live in my dreams."
When Ye Qing'an heard Yi Moxu talk about this dream, she suddenly remembered the inner demon illusion she had experienced before. Her breathing quickened and her face became slightly hot.
Ye Qing'an glared at Yi Moxu, then walked towards the door: "It's almost dinner time, I'll go see if Eleven is awake yet."
Yi Moxu stood up with a smile and followed Ye Qing'an out of the bedroom. Seeing Zixiao packing something, he said, "My luggage, the servants should have already taken it back to the manor, right?"
"Yes." Zixiao quickly lowered her head and replied, "They have all been brought back to the manor and placed back in the room where Doctor Xu lives."
Yi Moxu glanced at Ye Qing'an, and seeing that Ye Qing'an's expression remained unchanged, and was about to go out to the side courtyard, he continued, "Go and call everyone to be brought here. Miss will be going to war in a few days, so I will stay here for the time being."
"..." Ye Qing'an almost tripped over the threshold of the main hall. She steadied herself slightly before fleeing in a panic, without uttering a word of rebuttal.
Seeing Ye Qing'an's appearance, Yi Moxu's eyes and brows were filled with smiles, and he chuckled softly.
How can she be so cute?
Seeing that Ye Qing'an didn't speak, which seemed to be his tacit agreement, Zi Xiao simply put down her work and went to the side room.
Outside the door, Qingdai led her maid in to set out the dishes. When she saw Yimoxu standing in the room, she paused slightly and her gaze lingered on Yimoxu for a moment.
In the past few days, she had been staying in the manor and had gradually become familiar with the people there. In addition, with the rumors about Ye Qing'an that had been circulating for the past two days, Shen Qingdai had naturally heard about Ye Qing'an and that Doctor Xu.
When Shen Qingdai heard about that incident, she had a vague suspicion that this Xu Yixiu and the military doctor in the camp were both medical practitioners and might even be the same person.
Now that she had seen the person, although this Doctor Xu was wearing a mask, Shen Qingdai could recognize him just by looking at his figure; it was indeed the same person.
Yimo Xu...
Shen Qingdai's eyes flickered slightly. It seemed that her mistress and this Prince Duan really did have a secret affair.
Little did they know how these two people... who seemed to have no connection whatsoever, ended up together.
However, these are things that a subordinate like her cannot concern herself with.
The servants in the manor following behind her seemed to have gotten used to it. Although they occasionally peeked at Yi Moxu, they did not react too strongly.
Shen Qingdai lowered her head, had the food set out, and then stepped aside.
Ye Qing'an had already led Eleven into the house. Eleven still looked sleepy, but she perked up a bit when she saw Yi Moxu. She walked up to Xu Mo and raised her head: "I have completed all the tasks assigned to me. Will Uncle Xu check them later?"
“Okay.” Yi Moxu nodded: “I heard from your mother that you have made a lot of progress recently, so of course I have to take a good look at you.”
Eleven's eyes immediately lit up: "I've been behaving very well lately, will there be a reward?"
Yi Moxu chuckled: "Yes."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Zixiao came in with two servants carrying two boxes.
"Uncle Xu, what is this?"
"These are gifts I brought back for you and your mother. They are all things I bought along the way."
"Wow..." Eleven looked intently at Yi Moxu, then turned to Ye Qing'an: "Mommy, Uncle Xu brought us gifts!"
Ye Qing'an was also somewhat surprised, and only glanced at Yi Moxu: "Let's eat first, and then we'll go look at it."
"Okay!" Eleven ran quickly to the table and stood there, looking at Ye Qing'an and then at Yi Moxu. Ye Qing'an had no choice but to sit down. Then Yi Moxu came over and sat down next to Ye Qing'an before Eleven sat down.
Shiyi ate very quickly, putting down her bowl soon after, but still sat in her chair waiting until Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu had finished eating before they went into the bedroom together.
Yi Moxu opened the two boxes, glanced inside, and then smiled: "The one in this box is for your mother, and the one in this box is for you."
Eleven didn't look at the contents of her own box first, but instead looked at the box she was preparing for Ye Qing'an: "Wow! Mother, come and see, it's full of clothes and jewelry, they're all so beautiful."
Ye Qing'an glanced at it only once before turning her eyes away as if she didn't care: "Why would I buy those things? I don't lack clothes or jewelry."
Eleven chuckled and whispered to Yi Moxu, "Father, don't be afraid. My mother is lying. You know, you have to listen to the opposite of what a woman says. If she says she doesn't need anything, then she does. She pretends not to see it, but she's actually overjoyed inside."
"..." Ye Qing'an frowned: "Ye Jiuzhong! Do you think I can't hear you?"
Eleven stuck out her tongue and winked at Yi Moxu.
Yi Moxu was amused by Eleven's appearance and replied in a low voice, "Yes, I know. Your mother is just like that, saying one thing but meaning another. I understand."
"..."
Ye Qing'an squinted at the father and son and saw Eleven give Yi Moxu a thumbs up, something she thought she hadn't noticed.
"If you like whispering so much, you can go outside and whisper. If you're a little further away, I won't be able to hear you."
Eleven coughed lightly and stood up: "There are too many things in this box. I need to go back to my room to take a good look at it. Otherwise, I'll have to put it back after taking it out. Someone, come and help me carry this box back to my room."
A servant entered the room, and Shiyi pointed to the box on the ground. The servant lifted the box, and Shiyi turned around and bowed to Ye Qing'an: "Mother and Uncle Xu, please rest early. Shiyi will not disturb you any longer."
After saying that, she turned and gave Yi Moxu a look that said "good luck," and then happily led her servants away carrying the box.
Once the servants left, only Yi Moxu and Ye Qing'an remained in the room. Yi Moxu glanced at Ye Qing'an and smiled as he took out a bracelet from the box: "The clothes and jewelry inside look no different from ordinary clothes and jewelry, but in fact, they contain hidden secrets."
Is there a hidden secret?
