Chapter 2229 So Ruthless
“Qiaoqiao?” Mo Lian got close and asked in a low voice, “Did you see something?”
Qiao Mu raised her hand and covered his mouth. She whispered, “Be quiet!”
Mo Lian blinked and pulled her petite hand away from his mouth. He held her hand and whispered, “We’re being thieves right now.”
Qiao Mu nodded and pulled her hubby upstairs.
!!
At this time, the fire outside the building was burning fiercely. Several dozen people were rushing inside and outside the building. It was very rowdy, with people both putting out the fire and saving items from the fire.
An attendant who was getting on in years ran inside and wailed while slapping his thigh, “It’s over, it’s over. It’s over, it’s over, it’s over.”
After seeing the empty second floor, the old servant fell limply to the floor. “Oh my goodness! This thief is truly hateful! They’ve actually emptied out the entire floor!!”
“This bastard thief! Ahhh! How am I supposed to explain this.”
“Head Steward Hu, what should we do now, Head Steward Hu!”
“Scram! Scram! Quickly report to the prefecture lord! What are you people still standing here for?”
“Scram!” Head Steward Hu kicked the boy servants’ butts and had them quickly go report to the prefecture lord.
However, if they really went to report this to the prefecture lord at this point in time, they would only die!
None of the boy servants were truly stupid. None of them moved and just fell to the floor while shouting.
Head Steward Hu was so livid that he was hovering between life and death. He stepped hard on a boy servant’s foot. “Quickly inform the prefecture lord.”
Qiao Mu had been standing beside that boy servant. She was going to walk over when Mo Lian pulled her to his side. He comforted her gently.
“You’re not allowed to go over.” He spoke softly into her ear. His voice brushed her face, and his hot breath seemed to send an electric shock through her body.
He was closing in on Qiao Mu’s face. She found her face hot for some reason and put her petite hand against his chin to push away his handsome face.
“Why did you push me.” He couldn’t resist chuckling. Yet the more she pushed, the closer this guy clung to her. He had caught her up in his arms and hugged her tightly.
“Hot.” The little fellow huffed as she stuck her hands out and grabbed a fistful of his hair.
“Don’t yank.” Mo Lian took her hands and squeezed them. He chuckled, “Your hubby won’t be handsome if you yank him bald.”
Qiao Mu twitched her mouth and squirmed in his embrace. “Be quieter. They’ve nearly discovered us!”
“Let them.” Mo Lian was indifferent. “You had even wanted to go over just now.”
Qiao Mu harrumphed. She had indeed wanted to go over and kick that steward for being so abusive…
“If you kick him, we’ll get exposed.” He tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and said a smile, “Qiuqiu says that there is something strange about this place. Do you want to… waste all our previous effort?”
This guy was so abominable today. How come she felt like her face was giving off steam right now?
Qiao Mu harrumphed and snuggled in his embrace. “If you keep fooling around, I’ll toss you into Paradise Planet.”
Crown Prince Mo blinked aggrievedly and whispered into her ear, “Qiaoqiao, do you really want to throw me?”
Qiao Mu: !
This peerless devil was so awfully despicable!
