Chapter 366: Mo Yang and Gang 5
Zhu Shen stood inside the yard for a moment and noticed Qi Qingyao walking toward him. She had a few people following her. There was a very plump little lady among them, her face round and pudgy yet still cute. He suddenly recognized this girl from the information he had received. She had to be Gu Shanshan, the daughter of the Gu Family of Eastern Ling, and those two behind her were most likely Gu Cheng and Xiao Wuji. Zhu Shen was the State Preceptor’s lackey, so he lowered his head and silently followed Qi Qingyao, Gu Cheng, and Xiao Wuji, not paying any attention to them at all.
As Qi Qingyao walked toward the door, she was astonished by the commotion that was going on outside the villa.
There was a group of carriages with many horses, baggage carts, and an exceptionally lavish-looking carriage among them all… Very extravagant indeed.
Qi Qingyao asked Gu Shanshan, “What is this?”
Had a noble from Eastern Ling come to visit?
Gu Shanshan looked at the flag on the carriage and recognized it as the Mo Family’s insignia. She then said, “Ah, this is Mo Yang’s carriage.”
Gu Cheng stared at a young man clad in red apparel descending the carriage and said, “Mo Yang’s here.”
“You’re finally here,” Xiao Wuji said in a teasing tone as he strode over to him.
“Who’s Mo Yang?” Qi Qingyao asked dumbfoundedly.
Gu Shanshan winked at her and replied, “He’s the lookalike we told you about!”
The person who looks like me… The guy… Like that time Xiao Wuji mistook me for someone else?
Qi Qingyao could not see him very clearly from how far away she was, so she just stood still even though she was very curious.
When the young man had walked close enough to Qi Qingyao, she stared at him in absolute disbelief.
Mo Yang was also in disbelief.
He suddenly stopped walking.
There were a good four to five meters between them as they stared blankly at each other in silence.
“…”
“…”
After a while, Mo Yang approached Qi Qingyao, continuing to stare at her. “This lady…”
Qi Qingyao blinked as she tried to recompose herself.
If it were not for his gallant features and his height, she might have assumed he was her twin brother!
Qi Qingyao took a deep breath and looked up at Mo Yang, patted his shoulder, and said enthusiastically, “Young man, I’m very curious about you, but I’m very busy right now. I need to pay a visit to the koi temple. Let’s have a chat when we’re both free.”
After that, she mounted her horse.
Xiao Wuji said to her, “Since Mo Yang is here, I’ll keep him company as he settles down. You guys head over to the koi temple.”
Gu Shanshan and Gu Cheng both shared an embrace with Mo Yang before mounting their horses. After that, they left for their destination.
Mo Yang stared at the silhouette of the departing lady, then averted his gaze from her.
He asked Xiao Wuji, “She’s… Her name is Qi Qingyao?”
“How about that! She looks just like you, doesn’t she?” asked Xiao Wuji.
Mo Yang stroked his chin with his pale fingers, a misty look coming over his eyes. For a moment, it looked like there were ripples in the lakes of his eyes, brushing over the surface as a gentle wind blew in the air. After a while, he said, “If we’re not related by blood, then we’d look very good together as husband and wife.”
Xiao Wuji mercilessly retorted, “She’s a widow with children.”
“Is that so?” Mo Yang replied with an indifferent tone.
Xiao Wuji instructed the servants to carry the baggage inside the residence and ordered the others to rest.
As Mo Yang’s personal bodyguard, Tong San’s focus never shifted, even after looking at Qi Qingyao. It was at that moment a lightbulb went off in his head, and he realized his young master’s intentions for his arrival in Qingzhou City.
Jeez.
Who was that lady?
She looked so much like his young master.
If it were not for her local accent, he would have assumed that she was his sister!
How could two completely different people look so alike>
Tong San scratched his head in bewilderment as he followed the rest of the crew into the villa.
