Chapter 27: HGSU [Part 1]
Noble Consort Yu sees the disdain in Lan Qin Yu’s eyes and blows up. She is stepping towards Lan Qin Yu, her lips slightly open when a voice speaks from behind.
“Am I interrupting something?” a warm voice that belongs to a man hesitantly asks.
All concubines and servants turn to look at the man. Noble Consort Yu frowns, swallowing what she was about to say.
“M- Mister Mo—“ the man who came is actually the handsome guy who performed with Lan Qin Yu the other day. He is wearing white clothes while holding a white fan.
Liang Fei turns around to conceal the red print mark on her face, too embarrassed to let others see her defeated state. He noticed anyway, but did not say anything. He only smiles.
Mo Yun walk over to Lan Qin Yu and inspects her expression. She looks completely at ease, even toying with a pot of camellia next to her as though nothing has happened just now. “Handsome guy, why did you show up so fast? I haven’t played enough.”
Lan Qin Yu’s tiny complain reaches his hearing, Mo Yun smiles. This brat really loves playing, her tone really sounds like a child who hasn’t played enough.
She knew he was there from the very beginning? When did she found out…… He was well-hidden.
“Mister Mo, the morning meeting should have ended, what are you doing here?” Noble Consort Yu is surprised this man is actually here. It is rare for him to stay in the palace, he will usually leave after the meeting. He even politely rejected the emperor’s offer to him to stay for meals.
Lan Qin Yu hears the Noble Consort speaks and look at her as though she is looking at a monster, so she can actually speaks. She actually thought she was a mute beauty. She laughs at her own thinking and continues ‘studying’ the camellia.
Mo Yun smile, “His Majesty searched for me for something.”
So he is actually there for a matter.
Now that she thinks about it, Lin Er also said that the emperor is declaring something just now. Did something really happen? She should not be wasting her time like this.
“So it is like that.
“What is Noble Consort doing here?” Mo Yun ‘curiously’ asks.
She can tell that Mo Yun is being deliberate, it is not convenient for her to do anything further, “I was bored in the Yu He Palace, so I went out for a walk and got here. It was nothing, right Miss Lan?”
Lan Qin Yu really respect this person who acts according to the situation. She plays along, adding a little ‘material’ to her words, “Right! Your Ladyship, you really should go out more. You are not young like us. If you don’t go out more, you will get sick.”
Mo Yun secretly laughs, isn’t she basically calling her old. This girl is really mischievous!
Noble Consort Yu can no longer hide her emotions and walks away indignantly.

Chapter 28: HGSU [Part 2]
“Return to Yu He Palace!”
The bunch of people who came in fury leaves in grievance. Lan Qin Yu laughs happily once their shadows disappear.
“Ha! That bunch of overconfident people! If they want to leave, they should leave faster! I almost cannot hold my laughter! Aiya, my stomach hurts!”
“Miss Lan, you look like you haven’t played enough. Was I too nosy?”
Seeing her laughing so happily, he too wants to laugh. His face carries a light smile. [Actually he has been carrying a light smile from the beginning, but now that smile stretches wider.]
“Not really nosy, but had you came out a little later, I will be a lot happier. And no need to call me Miss Lan, I am not used to it. Just call me Xiao Yu.” After arriving in the ancient time, there is a miss left and right. It sounds like what people in a remote village would say. Goosebump.
Lan Qin Yu enters her chamber and take out an ointment, “Xiu Er, help Zi Er apply this on her face. Right, you haven’t told me your name.”
“Mo Yun.”
“Then, how should I address you?” She should ask for his opinion, even if she may not necessarily listen to them.
“Just call me Yun.” He does not really mind how she wants to address him.
“Then I’ll call you Xiao Yun Yun!”
Mo Yun’s smiling face suddenly freeze, black lines appearing on his forehead. “You…. You really shouldn’t.”
Xiao Yun Yun? Hearing that makes his hair rises. She must be doing this on purpose, giving him a name that sounds girly!
“You don’t like it? En…… Then, I’ll just call you Xiao Mo! That sounds affable.”
“From the way I look at it, just address me by my name. No need to look for nicknames.”
How can that be! She’s putting her whole heart to tease him! How can she not give him nicknames? “You don’t like Xiao Mo? As expected, you like Xiao Yun Yun better!” She gives him an ‘I told you so!’ expression!
Mo Yun’s teeth twitches, but in the end, he reluctantly put down his head, “You call me Xiao Mo then.”
“Nice to meet you, Xiao Mo!” Lan Qin Yu outstretches her hand.
Mo Yun is taken aback, not understanding the meaning behind that action. “What are you doing?”
“Oh, this is my hometown’s way of greeting people. When we meet new friends, we will grasp their hands. It’s a friendly gesture!” Actually, young people rarely use that gesture, but since the other person is a handsome guy, might as well….. hehe.
Lan Qin Yu smiles happily. Mo Yun did not think about restriction between men and women and obediently shakes her hand.
The handsome guy’s hand is so smooth, even better than a girl’s hand! Lan Qin Yu secretly smiles inside. They did not know each other that well right now, it is too early for her to show her real personality. If she does, it will be boring!
“Oh right, how did you performed with me the other day? You sounded so good, it’s almost like we were soulmates!”
“I just thought that the guqin sounded a little plain by itself, perhaps it will sound better I add flute. As long as you don’t blame me, it’s fine.”
Back then, he was roused by the sound of the guqin. He didn’t think she could play that well, it was a shock.
“It’s okay! It’s okay! That song is originally a mix of guqin and flute! But I am not that good in the wind instruments.”
The her right now is a lot more sincere and casual than when she faced Noble Consort Yu and the gang just now.
