Surna Huo? And then?
Gu Changsheng didn’t understand and looked at Xiao Cui and Dong Lei, then back at Yuan Bao vanishing at the doorway, his face full of confusion, “What does Yuan Bao an? Is he helping review the Hundred Family Surnas?”
There are too many people with the surna Huo, how could she possibly tell which one it is?
Gu Changsheng never paid much mind to people and matters that were of no importance; she looked down and thought for a mont, unable to recall knowing anyone with the surna Huo.
But seeing Yuan Bao’s reaction just now, it was as if the greatest sin had been committed if she did not recognize Zhou Mu’s acquaintance…
Seeing her own maid shake her head, Gu Changsheng decided not to dwell on it; if she couldn’t rember, then she would not bother trying!
The family continued to happily prepare for their return to the Gu Family.
anwhile, Zhou Mu left Gu Changsheng’s courtyard, and a guard imdiately brought over his Sweat-Blood Precious Horse. Zhou Mu took the lead, followed by several Elite Guards, rushing toward Liuzhou City.
In Prince Mu’s Mansion in Liuzhou City, because Zhou Mu was naturally cold and disliked noise, apart from a few eunuchs, most of the servants were guards, and there were hardly any maidservants, let alone personal maids or female attendants.
A burly and robust man holding a tea cup walked into the parlor of the guest room and, upon seeing the face of the lady sitting there, stopped short, a flash of amazent in his eyes.
Being able to serve in Prince Mu’s Mansion ant this guard was one of Zhou Mu’s trusted n. He quickly recovered his composure, placed the tea cup on the small table beside the woman, bowed slightly, and turned to leave.
“Li Sheng, Li Sheng, co here.” A Little Eunuch hiding behind a flowerbed waved at the guard.
Upon hearing this, Li Sheng walked over with a frown, his face stern, “Xiao Si Xi, you’re shirking even the task of running errands for Lord Yuan Bao, and now you’re handing off even the tea-serving duty to us. Are you trying to slack off?”
At these words, Si Xi imdiately glared, “How am I slacking off? Lord Yuan Bao ordered to stay away from the person inside. Li Sheng, how is it? Is Miss Huo from inside really as beautiful as the rumors say?”
Li Sheng heard this, his face betraying a mont of distraction, but he quickly regained his composure, nodded, and replied very matter-of-factly, “Beautiful! She’s so beautiful she doesn’t seem human!”
Si Xi’s starry eyes sparkled upon hearing this, his heart scratching like a cat’s, itching to go see for himself.
But he didn’t dare disobey Lord Yuan Bao’s command, and as he was wrestling with his thoughts, a succession of voices ca from the outer courtyard.
“Welco back, my lord!”
“Welco back, my lord!”
Suddenly excited, Si Xi was about to rise and go greet when he noticed a blossom of pink, gracefully drifting toward the exit.
“Brother Mu!”
“Miss, go slowly!”
Zhou Mu’s figure paused underneath the Crescent Moon Gate, tall and poised. Seeing Huo Shuixian flitting toward him, his brow slightly furrowed, but in the end, he did not step aside.
Huo Shuixian ran up to Zhou Mu, her delicate, pale jade hands anxiously clutching his sleeves, her worried face breaking into a gleam of joy, with a beauty that could reverse the fortunes of all living beings, her face verging on tears.
Huo Shuixian was montarily stunned by the sight of Zhou Mu’s face, then promptly returned to her usual self, just like she was in her younger days. How wonderful!
“Brother Mu…”
Huo Shuixian called out hesitantly, her voice laden with infinite allure.
Lord Yuan Bao, hearing this, couldn’t help but shiver—what a cringeworthy voice! And such an elaborate outfit!
In her Pink Cloud Luo Skirt, with the hem fluttering in the wind, Piaopiao as if a Nine Heavens Immortal, her Flowing Fairy Hairbun remained impeccable, secured by a re Pink Hairpin, simple yet elegant. Her delicate face was flawlessly made up, with a dainty mouth and a nose like jade, Phoenix Eyes and painted eyebrows.
Huo Shuixian’s beauty was just right, not a bit more, not a bit less, as though a gift from the creator, flawlessly exquisite in every aspect, too beautiful to be of this world, more like a Fairy descended from the Nine Heavens. Her smile brought the warmth of spring to the entire world, and her sorrow seed like the withering of autumnal blooms and falling leaves turning to mud. Her beauty was such that it demanded reverence and one could only gaze from afar.
Huo Shuixian was as if she had hoarded all of divinity’s attention, not only encompassing all the beauty of the world in her person but also being gentle and proper. Her every move was a model of a Zhou Dynasty noble lady. And if that wasn’t enough, she ca from the family of the Grand Tutor, with a profound lineage of learning and radiant literary grace, the number one talented woman of the Capital City.
But Yuan Bao consistently felt that overly perfect individuals scared him a little.
It was just like the old saying: A person without flaws is not to be associated with; a person without hobbies is not fit to live.
Huo Shuixian was that perfect person without a single flaw or imperfection! Perfect to the point of hardly seeming human!
Watching those delicate hands grasp the sleeves of their own lord, their master who always disliked people getting close to him yet did not avoid it, Yuan Bao couldn’t help but look heavenward, speechless!
