Repairing the Past

Chapter 18

The next day, after leaving the resting place, Chu Yao took the initiative to invite Mo Yan to comb the streets around the city of Nian.

He was thinking of pampering himself and Mo Yan a day or two before returning to the capital.

Besides being caused by the chaos of thought that was still twisted like a thread that was scattering, Chu Yao wanted to make the stern-faced man feel a relaxed day.

It was a bit outrageous if all this time he could not give a day where Mo Yan could express his normal expression like a single young man in general.

Chu Yao and Mo Yan walked leisurely amongst the bustle of passersby. Occasionally they stop to just see the merchandise of some sellers at the edge of the city axis.

The city road is filled with various activities. One of them is the transaction of buying and selling jewelry from a variety of unique rocks dominated by the mainstay crystal stones of the city of Nian.

Of course, Nian city is a crystal-producing city, with many mines in each of its mountains. It is not unusual for the city of Nian to be one of the high-income areas in Airland.

"It's a pity if we're only in town for a little while. " Murm Chu Yao with a carefree tone.

"Miss can come here again, whenever she wants. " Reply Mo Yan when he saw the wide smile on his back that Chu Yao was full of.

Although at this moment the girl's face seemed so cheerful, but the look in her eyes could not fool Mo Yan's sharp intuition.

Traces of anxiety are still evident in the iris of his eyes. The rest of the sadness was still imprinted on his lower eyelid which was slightly swollen.

Chu Yao grabbed onto Mo Yan's hand and herded the young man following her footsteps. They ran small down a street filled with crowds.

"Before you go home, today I will take you for fun, Mo Yan. And I make sure you will never forget it for life" Chu Yao said loudly.A excited expression made a red tinge on both cheeks.

Mo Yan was stunned. His eyes stared unblinkingly. Her flagship's terculum smile carves freely at the corners of her thin lips. He followed the beautiful girl's footsteps without the slightest rejection.

Chu Yao took Mo Yan around.

The woman took the bodyguard to try some traditional games, buy some food to watch the attractions of the show from one place to another.

Their footsteps came to a halt at one of the fruit stalls by the roadside. Chu Yao was fixated for a moment as her eyes focused on a lotus flower-shaped hairpin made of pink-colored crystal.

Mo Yan scanned the girl's face from the corner of his eyes. No change there. The girl simply took a breath and resumed her steps.

"Mo Yan's. Why are you still there?" Call Chu Yao when she realized that the figure of the sturdy man was not beside her.

His eyebrows frowned slightly when he saw Mo Yan lower his head and thanked the jeweler.

Suspicion began to creep into Chu Yao's mind. Don't these stone faces buy something for a girl?

"What were you doing there?" Chu Yao asked in full probing.

"none. I just asked if he knew the reason why many Imperial soldiers were at the city gate." Mo Yan's answer sounded far-fetched.

Chu Yao ber'oh' lightly responded. Although there was a slight discomfort in his heart, yet he tried to ignore her.

After all, it was not a wrong thing if Mo Yan did have a lover at his age who was quite mature at this time.

If he had forbidden Mo Yan from buying a hairpin as a gift for his loved ones, it would have been too selfish and a violation of the privacy of a human being.

But.... Why was there a pain in Chu Yao's chest at this moment?

Ah already!

He couldn't possibly ruin the atmosphere just because of his baseless suspicions.

Chu Yao again stopped at a fruit stall. He took out some silver taels and bought some of Mo Yan's favorite citrus fruits.

"Try opening your mouth?" Chu Yao suddenly thrust out an orange that she had already peeled into Mo Yan's mouth.

"Enak? " Task her later. His expression was so innocent with a sparkling gaze. So close that Mo Yan saw her reflection in the iris of the girl's round eyes.

Mo Yan assented with a slight awkward gesture. His eyeballs turned away from the nimble girl's gaze. His bumbling reply did not make Chu Yao realize that his treatment just now made the man's face flushed red.

"Come, follow me again. " Take Chu Yao without letting go of the man's grasp, "this time I will take you to see what a real man should see. "

"What?" Mo Yan swallowed his saliva when Chu Yao's sneaky smile had infused perfectly. His intuition was that something bad was going to happen.

And, the guess did not miss. The girl took him to a famous entertainment place in the city of Nian. Mo Yan suddenly felt dizzy. It could be that the woman was thinking of taking him to a brothel at times like this.

"Miss, this is not true." Reject Mo Yan when Chu Yao invited him inside.

"It's okay. Come inside!" Tone ruled out just like Chu Yao's lips. His hands are stiff in the chest.

Mo Yan did not budge. What other absurd orders were given to him. The flat-faced sharpness that Mo Yan displayed remained unable to erode Chu Yao's desire to bring her inside.

"It's okay. Comein! I'll keep you company." Repeat Chu Yao in a persuading tone while pulling the man's hand with all her might.

Mo Yan's brows furrowed. His facial water looks sour, "miss, a place like this is not a good place. Especially for a woman like Miss. We better go somewhere else. "

Chu Yao clucked. He denied, "it's not for me, it's for you!"

"But I don't have to come here."

"No! You have to go inside. At least see some dancers there. Did you refuse my orders?"

"I don't dare." Mo Yan replied slightly bowing his head with fingers gripping each other firmly.

Is correct. He would never refuse if his master gave the order to investigate something even in such a filthy place.

However, his little heart would rebel if he had to enter just for fun. Moreover bringing the master along with her and seeing things that no respectable woman like Chu Yao should see.

"Then get in! What else are you waiting for?" Chu Yao was slightly annoyed to see Mo Yan who remained petrified.

"Do you want me to investigate something in there?"

Chu Yao sighed, "It seems that you misunderstood. I just want to let you have fun today." Clearly while diverting his round eyeballs.

With a slow murmur he said, "Is not every man who grows up always..."

Chu Yao's mouth gagged onto Mo Yan's large hand before her words finished speaking. Chu Yao looked up and looked directly at Mo Yan's sharp eyes.

Mo Yan again swallowed his saliva, he had not expected that there was another side to Chu Yao's newly-seen self. His nature which is still naive and seems arrogant actually makes the man go awry.

As a man who has an absolute attachment to the employer that he always has to obey, he does not have the right to give a rejection of all orders given.

It's just that, for an order like this it doesn't feel wrong if he refuses. Mo Yan knew the girl's intentions were good, yet somehow it felt like he was forced to sell himself.

On the other hand, Chu Yao felt unwell. He wanted to explain but his voice was still immersed in Mo Yan's large arms.

He tried to tightly grip the masculine man's fingers and pull away from his lips. But his efforts were in vain. The man's hand stayed there. Even now the other hand was actually embracing Chu Yao's body in her arms. Locking his whole movement.

"I'll obey all your orders but not for this one.. " Said Mo Yan with her sharp gaze. He didn't even care if the lady punished him later.

"I don't have to have fun there just to prove that I'm a normal grown man." His heavy voice still sounded soft but had a firm meaning.

"Obey." Mo Yan said ending the explanation.

Chu Yao was fixated. Unconsciously nodding his head. Follow what the bodyguard tells you.

Nah! Why is this stone face acting like an employer? Wasn't she the one Mo Yan had to obey.

Chu Yao pursed her lips. He wanted to reprimand the carelessness of the bodyguard but just back pegged when he saw the thin smile on his back Mo Yan.

His heart instantly beat fast.

Mo Yan removed his hand from the master's pink lips. But the glare of his sharp eyes had locked onto the focus of the girl. They stared at each other without speaking a word.

"Yoo.. I didn't expect you to have any interest in this place. "

The familiar voice of tenor Long Ye Zuan in the ear made the two young girls turn their eyes away.

"Young master Lei?" Said Chu Yao with widened pupils.

Ye Zuan stood with Yun Yi. He waved his fan and slightly chuckled, "want until when are you going to hug like that? You guys really make me jealous. "

Mo Yan and Chu Yao reflexively broke away. The faces of the two were slightly reddened and awkward. Again made the eighth prince chuckle amusedly.

"Why are you here?" Chu Yao asked as Ye Zuan was already several steps ahead of them.

"I should ask, why are people who claim to be married even in this place?" Ye Zuan emphasized the word 'confessing' by raising the octave of his voice.

Chu Yao walked up to the eccentric man, "young master, this city is so vast, why do we only see you again and again. Do you really intend to follow us?"

"Ck, ck, ck, don't get big heads. Wasn't I the one myself very reasonable to be in the entertainment area like this. That you?" Decak Ye Zuan's.

"We're just having fun." Chu Yao replied briefly.

"This place?" Ye Zuan's eyebrows shot up in astonishment. Then he chuckled loudly until his body slouched.

"Hell up!" Chu Yao very lazily clashed her mouth with the man. Ye Zuan's fussiness could quite make his head throb. The man's mouth was no different from a woman's.

"Come on Mo Yan!" Chu Yao invited the bodyguard out of his place.

He walked past Ye Zuan as if he did not consider the existence of the man close to him. His steps were so fast that the three men behind him joined in synchronizing the steps together.

"Yao yao's... Slow down a little! You really don't reflect a graceful girl. "Ye Zuan commented on Chu Yao's footsteps.

"Grove! I didn't tell you to follow me." Reply Chu Yao was annoyed.

"Are you angry?" Ye Zuan asked as he opened his fan wide, "it looks like you are indeed angry."

"Aren't you tired of following a hot-tempered woman like her?" Knock Ye Zuan when Mo Yang walks parallel to her.

Mo Yan shook his head. Stay with the cold aura that has become his trademark.

Ye Zuan clucked again, opening the lid of his fan with a graceful rhythmic gesture, "Aahh.. Your life is really boring. Your beautiful face is in vain. Look at me! This beauty has been a blessing in my life. Once you blink your eyes, the beautiful women across the country will be amazed. So peaceful is life adored by the pleasures of the world. Do you want me to teach you how?"

Ye Zuan's mischievous wink made Mo Yan's brows furrow. The man chuckled and made Chu Yao turn her gaze towards the two.

"Close your mouth! I'll chop your body up and make it a fish meal if you dare to teach him such dirty tricks!"

Yun Yi frowned with the courage that Chu Yao possessed. The girl's words were very sassy. He could be put to death if the prince did not hold a chest for his words just now.

Yun Yi stood in a ready position in case the prince ordered to take the woman's life.

But the prince was getting worse. There was no offense on his face.

Chu Yao was getting increasingly annoyed. But he persisted with a detensive attitude. Mo Yan did not remain silent. He advanced in the middle and looked down respectfully.

"Thank you for young master Lei's offer. But I don't need it. " Say Mo Yan politely, "if there's no more, we retreat."

Mo Yan and Chu Yao gestured to each other. They simultaneously reverse the body. Yet Ye Zuan stopped their movements.

"Wait!" The tone of commanding sounded loud. The man closed the fan and immediately changed his face water.

"There's something I want to talk to you about. I hope you can come with me."

Chu Yao moved forward. Read the body language of the eccentric man in front of him carefully. There's no joke there. Chu Yao's intuition became even more sensitive. It was possible that from the very beginning this eighth prince had indeed wanted something from him.

The man simply bailed his time so that he did not make the limit.

How interesting!

"What profit can I get if I follow your orders?"

Chu Yao's defiant attitude made Yun Yi advance in a standby pose. But again the prince did not take heart for the sassy actions of the girl.

He even raised his hand to block the movement of the bodyguard who wanted to attack.

"Barter. Let's assume we exchanged interests. Fair enough isn't it, Chu Yao?" Ye Zuan whispered. He deliberately slowed down the voice so that it did not sound just anyone.

Chu Yao's expression changed. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly at the eighth prince's sly smile. The man knew his true identity.
