"What a nice girl Qingyou is! Graceful and beautiful with good family background and learning. Why did you act as if to bite her and scare her away?"
Sending away the horse carriage of Jian family, Mo Qianxue displayed an unforgiving face to Ning Shaoqing.
"Bite?" Instantly, Ning Shaoqing's expression became a violent storm, eyes shooting out coldness.
Don't think that he didn't see her and Jian Qingyou making eyes at each other when he was talking with lord Jian.
He didn't question her, but now she should come to accuse him and said bite... What was him? A monster? Besides, even if he was a monster, he only wanted to bite her. As the thought flowing in his mind, he actually spelled it out, "Now, I only want to bite you to death!"
Then, the woman was carried into the inner room.
Since when did lord become such a fretful man? And since when did he become so rude?
The shadow guard couldn't figure it out and only had to block his ears with cotton pods. It would be better for him not listen to certain sound.
In a while, the monster got quiet.
The woman tried to conceal with her hands a few red marks on her face, stroking her heated neck and sighing: why did she keep saying wrong words recently?
No, she couldn't just let him go. She must bite back. Then, she dashed over and pressed the monster under her body.
At closer glance, his lips seemed more alluring. She grinded her teeth, opened her mouth to...
When the door was knocked.
It was Asan, "Lady, the gifts are checked off. Please take a look."
He saw Jian's carriage had left and thought that he should let lady check gifts, so he hurriedly come to find her.
Mo Qianxue found it both funny and annoying.
She climbed off Ning Shaoqing's body.
Ning Shaoqing turned murderous, shouting, "Leave!" However, though Asan instantly ran away, the chemistry between the couple also disappeared, not to be restored.
Ning Shaoqing sat up and coughed.
The two pairs of eyes clashed into each other. The burning pain in her neck made Mo Qianxue angry out of shyness. She raised her little fists and began to beat Ning Shaoqing up.

Due to the running water, the river wasn't frozen. It was quite warm inside, so the business of Mo Qianxue' restaurant was better than usual.
Since a few days ago, after she called a meeting in the restaurant, every day Mo Qianxue only showed up for a while to check the account book and food and give orders...
Yunyao now was the manager sitting behind the counter and keeping accounts and would help clean the tables when she was free. She didn't need to assit Juniang in the restaurant because now it was the job of Yunniang, Juniang's friend.
When Mo Qianxue had asked Juniang to recommend someone, the main purpose was to let her get a friend here, which was both a favor to her and a way to avoid conflict in the kitchen. Mo Qianxue herself would also have less troubles to tackle with.
Xiaolei acted as a waiter. He was still a quick-doer as before. When there were no people in the restaurant, he would go to solicit customers or advertise for their food at the dock.
Sometimes, when the ship passengers didn't want to disembark, he would also send the food onboard. When the restaurant had more business, his income went up too, a win-win scenario.
