Chapter 167: Jealous (8)

A well-defined hand reached over, with fingers hooking a water jar.
Bai Xianyu was stunned. She did not know when Xie Xingyun had sat beside her.
Seeing that she was looking at him without saying anything, Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes and placed the water jar beside her hand before getting up to leave.
“Wait…”
He did not stop, his emotions indiscernible from his tone.. “I’ve not drunk from it.”
Bai Xianyu’s words were stuck in her throat. The man’s back was straight, but there was a hint of loneliness.
She hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it. The body of the jar still had the residual warmth of his palm.
After drinking the water, Bai Xianyu was not so thirsty anymore. Xiao Zheng appeared at the right time and put the jar away for her.
After about half an hour, Mo Linyuan left first. “I’m a little tired. You guys continue. I’ll take a walk elsewhere.”
Bai Xianyu was about to fall asleep, but when she saw that Mo Linyuan was about to leave, alarm bells rang in her heart.
There were many people here, and there were all kinds of people. It was also a good place to take action.
“Alright, let’s continue!”
“It’s your turn, Fourth Brother!”
Everyone was in high spirits. After a few casual replies, Mo Linyuan left.
The moment he left, Bai Xianyu’s gaze was fixed on him. After thinking for two seconds, she stood up and chased after him.
There was no expression on Xie Xingyun’s face, but his grip on the sword gradually tightened.
Xiao Zheng was careful. “Young Master, should we follow them?”
Xie Xingyun laughed. “Yes.”
Let him see how she liked someone.
Mo Linyuan walked for a while before he realized that someone was following him. He turned around and saw Bai Xianyu wearing a cone hat and following him five steps away. When she saw him looking over, the girl panicked for a moment before quickly calming down.
Bai Xianyu was a little embarrassed and touched her nose to hide it. “I’m also here to walk around.”
Mo Linyuan smiled. “Shall we go together?”
Bai Xianyu nodded.
The handsome man stood in the crowd. He was clearly dressed very low-key, but it could not hide his elegance. He smiled as he watched the graceful girl walk towards him, his gaze focused and serious.
The girl was as dazzling as the sun. Her red lips were curled up, and her eyes were like paint.
Xie Xingyun looked at this scene as if he was torturing himself. His eyes were sore and swollen, and his heart felt like it was being pinched by a big hand. A dense pain pierced his limbs and bones.
Bai Xianyu did not know that Xie Xingyun was behind her. Even if she knew, she would not make a special effort to explain anything to him.
There were many candied hawthorn sellers on this road. Xie Xingyun looked at the two of them deeply for a while, looked away, took out some silver from his pocket, and bought a stick of candied hawthorn.
The ice-smooth sugar surface reflected his lowered eyes.
In the past, when she went out with him, she would always buy two sticks. Even though she knew that he did not eat sweet stuff, she would still leave one stick for him and one stick for herself. For someone who liked to eat sweets like her, she would probably crave them after shopping.
Xiao Zheng said in time, “Young Master, I’ll bring it to the Fifth Princess later. She gets along well with Fifth Miss Bai. If she gives it to her, Fifth Miss Bai will eat it.”
Xie Xingyun said calmly, “Yes.”
When Mo Linyuan turned around, he found Xie Xingyun and the guard beside him. He calmly retracted his gaze and stared at the girl beside him. “Can I address you as Xianyu?”
Bai Xianyu smiled, “Sure.”
Mo Linyuan’s smile reached his eyes. “Xianyu, I’m not familiar with this place. Can you show me around?”
“Yes, I’ve been here a few times before.” Bai Xianyu raised her head and glanced at the noisy vendors and horse carriages around her. “Let’s go over there. There’s a lot of delicious food there and some calligraphy and paintings. We can even find some antiques occasionally.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
Bai Xianyu walked towards the west street with him. Because of the crowd, their sleeves inevitably touched. Bai Xianyu’s attention was on the surrounding vendors and did not notice, but Mo Linyuan’s attention was all on her every frown and smile.
Seeing her gaze fall on the bright red candied hawthorn, Mo Linyuan also looked over. “Do you want to eat this?”
Bai Xianyu’s eyes lit up. “Yes.”
As she spoke, she reached into her pocket, but she found nothing. Usually, Green Pearl would carry the money with her, but it was inconvenient to bring a maidservant on this trip. Mo Linyuan saw Bai Xianyu’s regretful expression. He chuckled and took out a tael of silver from his wallet. “Take mine.”
Bai Xianyu thought for a moment and said, “Then take it that I borrowed it from you. I’ll return it to you when we get back.”
Mo Linyuan nodded and smiled. “You’re welcome. We’re old friends now..”
