Mo Xiao then shifted his gaze away from Lin Jiuqing and for the first time looked directly at the strange man who appeared in his wife's house.

Mo Xiao narrowed his eyes: "Liu Jingwen...what does he do?"

With just one sentence, Liu Jingwen's spine, which had been straight all his life, almost bent. His legs became so weak that he almost fell to his knees, and cold sweat broke out in an instant.

I had only heard of this famous tyrant before, but now I finally got to see him and he was indeed worthy of his reputation.

Liu Jingwen took a deep breath, and despite the overwhelming pressure, he tried to speak calmly, "I am a student who is going to Beijing to take the imperial examination."

Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked down at Lin Jiuqing in his arms, his eyes asking: How do you know this student?

Lin Jiuqing and he had a tacit understanding. He tiptoed close to his ear and briefly told him about Liu Jingwen and Lin Qingqing. He then praised him, "Young Master Liu is talented and has noble character. He will definitely achieve good results in this year's imperial examination."

Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows again.

It would be fine if he was just talented, but he even added that he has a noble character... It seems that Lin Jiuqing has a good impression of Liu Jingwen.

Lin Jiuqing, perhaps because he has experienced too much, looks amiable, but is actually cold-hearted and keeps his distance from everyone. It is already very good that he can let her see this and maintain a superficial friendship with him.

When Mo Xiao looked at Liu Jingwen again, his eyes were much softer than before. He said calmly, "The imperial examination is coming soon. How are you preparing, Master Liu?"

Liu Jingwen's skin was tense all over. Mo Xiao's casual question seemed to him like an examination by the examiner.

He lowered his eyes slightly and said in a calm and collected manner, "I've been preparing for more than ten years and have rehearsed it in my mind thousands of times."

Mo Xiao nodded: "If that's the case, then you are confident."

Liu Jingwen: "I will definitely do my best."

Mo Xiao nodded, walked to the table and sat down, still holding Lin Jiuqing's hand. With his other hand, he picked up the wild fruit on the table and looked at it: "Did you pick it?"

Liu Jingwen: “Yes.”

He pursed his lips and continued, "I have nothing of value, nothing to give Miss Lin. These wild fruits are the only ones I can offer. I am grateful that Miss Lin... Madam Mo does not despise them."

Mo Xiao threw the fruit into his mouth, then turned to Lin Jiuqing and said, "No wonder you like it, it really has a unique taste."

Lin Jiuqing smiled and glanced at Liu Jingwen: "You came at the right time today. This fruit was just picked and sent by Master Liu. It's very fresh."

Mo Xiao: "Thanks to you, I can also eat such delicious food."

Lin Jiuqing covered his mouth and chuckled.

Liu Jingwen on the side had his hair standing on end and goose bumps all over his body.

This tyrant who is said to kill people without blinking an eye actually has a side that can coax women and speaks in a very coherent way.

No wonder he was willing to disband his harem for Lin Jiuqing. It was clear that he truly loved Lin Jiuqing.

Mo Xiao took Lin Jiuqing's hand and whispered, "Now that everything at home has been taken care of, you should stop staying outside and come back with me. It's not good for us young couples to be separated from each other like this."

Lin Jiuqing immediately glanced at Liu Jingwen and whispered to Mo Xiao, "There are outsiders here, could you please stop talking nonsense?"

Mo Xiao chuckled and looked at Liu Jingwen: "Master Liu, you won't mind, right?"

Liu Jingwen: “…”

How could he dare to mind?

"Of course I don't mind," Liu Jingwen said with a stiff smile, "Mr. Mo and his wife have a harmonious relationship, which is the envy of others."
