Even though she felt suspicious, she tried to push down the suspicion she felt when she saw Luo Bin smiling at her. She took the letter, kept it and smiled in agreement.

Even though she was filled with suspicion, she pushed down the suspicions she felt when she saw Luo Bin smiling at her. She received the envelope and kept it, nodding in agreement.

There were two large carriages from the Mo Manor that came to pick Mo Xuetong up.

Mo Xuetong and Mo He got on the first carriage. Nanny Li sat in the carriage at the back together with the suitcases and knickknacks. Mo Xuetong liked Nanny Li a lot. She asked Nanny Li to teach her. Nanny Li got along well with Mo Xuetong and agreed to go with her. As such, she packed up her luggage as well and followed Mo Xuetong to the Mo Manor.

Old Madam Xu asked Mo Lan to stay. The old madam said that there were still some ch.o.r.es left to do and that the Luo Manor would send her back in a carriage once the ch.o.r.es were done.

Mo He was more at ease than usual since Nanny Li was not on it. She picked up the curtains furtively and looked out.

"Miss, that carriage is so beautiful. Come and see it." Mo He saw a carriage turning in from the corner of the main street and her eyes lit up. The carriage was lengthened and the windows were opened. Mo Xuetong could see Bai Yihao"s handsome face from her spot. His eyes and face had a small smile on them as he looked at Mo Xuetong through the carriage windows.

The faint smile was like the floating clouds in the sky. It was beautiful and flowed like the swirls in jade.

Their eyes met and hearts fluttered. Her long lashes fluttered and her eyes lowered. A beautiful young man like this could indeed be heralded as the most beautiful man on earth. However, Mo Xuetong knew of the danger behind his gentleness and elegance. Her heart sped up, looking at his smile. No matter what happened in the future, he was indeed a gentle and elegant beautiful young man.

His eyes were gentle and seemed as if they were smiling. A person"s heart would race when he looked at them.

She looked in his direction and smiled faintly as a sign of greeting. Then, she turned away and ordered Mo He softly, "Mo He, close the windows."

Mo He was still stunned as she watched the handsome young man in a daze, missing what Mo Xuetong said.

Mo Xuetong bit her lips when she saw that Mo He had not reacted. She reached out to tug at Mo He"s sleeves and said, "Mo He, close the windows."

"Ah, yes, Miss!" Mo He reacted only then, hurrying to pull the curtains close with a flush on her face.

Even though both Mo He and Mo Lan were kneeling on the ground that day and did not look up, Mo He had still secretly glanced at him. She was stunned then. And when she saw him again today, she still felt shocked. Her hand that was shutting the curtains paused.

Mo Xuetong"s eyes drifted and she sighed to herself when she saw Mo He"s reluctance. She frowned and her voice grew sharp. "Mo He, shut the windows! That is the crown prince of Yan Kingdom. He is the nephew of the Emperor and will become king of a country one day."

She dragged out the last word, making obvious her unhappiness.

The difference between her and Bai Yihao was too large, much less a maid and him. If she opens the window, those not in the know would think that she was peeking at Sir Bai. Who was Sir Bai for other people to peek at him? Furthermore, regardless of whether he spoke or not, most of the n.o.ble ladies in the capital are all watching him. If she smiled at him through the window today, various rumors about her would emerge tomorrow.

After the lesson she had learned in her past life that was paid for in blood, she knew clearly how important a woman"s reputation was. This was especially when it involved a man like Bai Yihao, who was popular with women. She only wished to avoid people like him.

In her past life, there was said to be a n.o.ble lady who had behaved flirtatiously with him. When their horse carriages pa.s.sed each other, she had tossed a handkerchief into his horse carriage. No one knew how the news about this incident spread. The n.o.ble family had no choice and wanted Bai Yihao to marry that lady. However, Bai Yihao only smiled simply and ordered his guard to take out the handkerchief and threw it into the muddy ground. Then, he turned and left.

The white and clean handkerchief fell into the mud, and it had been taken out by a guard. What else was there to say!

He was not even willing to take her as his concubine!

The reputation of that lady was ruined. She was sent to the temple in a little carriage and never returned!

What happened in the past should not be forgotten, for it is a lesson for the future!

She did not wish to be embroiled in such unworthy matters before she even completed her revenge. That person was elegant and beautiful, but the viciousness in his heart was so unlike his appearance. A woman"s life to him was like an ant that he could crush under his foot. He was unfeeling and coldblooded.

Of course, everyone knew that someone who was as ambitious like him would not possibly fall in love.

Mo He flushed when she saw that Mo Xuetong was angry. She immediately closed the curtains with reluctance.

However, even if she wanted to leave, she might not be able to. The windows had just been shut when there were two soft knocks. Mo He opened the windows hurriedly before Mo Xuetong could even say anything. Indeed the two horse carriages were being driven side-by-side. Bai Yihao"s handsome face appeared before the window and he said, "Third Miss Mo, are you returning to the Mo Manor?"

Bai Yihao"s voice was crisp and attractive. His eyes, which were as bright as the stars, peered at her as he smiled. He was wearing a light white long robe today, but it did not seem plain. There were golden dragon embroideries on his sleeves and silver threads at his collar in the pattern of ivies. They were like two silver dragons circling his slender neck. The tail of the dragon swept at his collar. His handsome face seemed friendly and he looked gentle as he smiled.

Mo Xuetong could not ignore him. She blinked and then looked up. Her beautiful and innocent face held a gentle expression. However, it was also polite and distant as she spoke, "Greetings, Sir Bai. I was just about to return to the manor. Is something the matter?"

She was not so narcissistic to think that Bai Yihao had sped up just to speak with her.

Bai Yihao had not expected her to be so intelligent and sensitive. He looked at the distant look in her eyes and suddenly laughed. He put down his hand which was holding on to the curtains. The carriage plodded on, and he smiled elegantly, "I am taking the same route as you. I have something on at the Mo Manor."

The two horse carriages were one horse apart. Bai Yihao knocked on the carriage door. The driver had long understood his intentions and backed away, allowing Mo Xuetong"s carriage to move ahead first. Inside the horse carriage, a beautiful servant poured him wine, kneeling down and presenting it to him. "Sir, please!"

Bai Yihao reached out to take the wine and sent it to his lips. He leaned against the futon seemingly to be deep in thought. The corners of his lips curled up.

The beautiful servant looked up from the corner of her eyes. She looked at how Bai Yihao held his wine and his slightly pinched lips. He exuded gentleness and poise and there was a hint of laughter deep in his eyes. His handsome face was as pure as jade and his eyes floated to the slightly open carriage curtains, landing on the carriage before them. That carriage door was tightly shut.

Bai Yihao looked away to the beautiful servant when he sensed her gaze upon him. Even though he was still smiling gently, his eyes had lost its warmth. Even though he still looked good, it made one feel cold. The beautiful servant was shocked and hurriedly lowered her head, lying prostrate on the ground, no longer daring to peek at him.

Bai Yihao seemed not to see how the beautiful servant was trembling. He looked at her gently and smiled, "Do you think that that girl is different?"

"Yes, yes! Sir, I was just curious!" The beautiful servant was so afraid she was curled up into a ball. Only the sound of her teeth chattering could be heard in the quiet horse carriage.

"What will happen if rumors got out that I am interested in Third Miss Mo?" Bai Yihao lifted the beautiful servant"s head up with his hand. The beautiful face immediately paled.

"This servant wouldn"t dare, this servant wouldn"t dare!" She held his hand and screamed in fear.

"What has the First Prince promised you for you to betray me?" Bai Yihao"s beautiful face shone with a warm and gentle smile. It seemed as if he was looking at his lover. However, he had addressed himself formally. He was no longer the carefree Sir Bai, but the crown prince of Yan Kingdom.

"No, I didn"t! Your Highness, I didn"t..."

Her somewhat sharp voice was trapped in her throat. The long slender hand on her neck was strong. It was a playful hand that did not seem cold at all. The beautiful servant"s eyes subconsciously landed on those hands. Then, she could not breathe and collapsed.

He turned around and cleaned his hands with a clean white handkerchief. Then, he tossed it elegantly onto the servant"s face.

"Sir, what"s the matter?" The young man seated at the driver"s seat asked without turning his head around.

"Nothing. Get someone to deal with this!" Bai Yihao said with a gentle smile and laid back into his seat again. His light and a casual statement made it hard for others to imagine that he was the one who had killed the servant earlier. "Send a few beauties to the First Prince so he won"t be too bored. I heard that the Empress is really close to him. That is bad news!"

"Sir, do you really like Third Miss Mo?" The driver asked softly.

"Beauties are hindrances to success. A beauty like this could cause cities to fall. Furthermore, she is intelligent. If the First Prince has such a beautiful woman, his inner courtyard would not be as peaceful as it is now." He smiled and his gentle voice sounded like the mutterings of a lover. If one only saw the handsome and gentle young man, they would not have thought that his slender pale hands had just ended a person"s life without second thought moments ago.

"But how would the Mo Manor allow their Third Miss to marry so far away? Furthermore, Mo Huawen"s rank in court is not high enough either." The driver said softly.

"Mo Huawen will be promoted soon!" Bai Yihao smiled elegantly.

The driver did not say anything else this time. After moving away from an approaching horse carriage, he left the main path and into a smaller path by the side.

Mo Xuetong did not arrive much earlier than Bai Yihao. She had just gotten off the horse carriage when she saw Bai Yihao"s horse carriage. The carriage door curtain lifted and Bai Yihao, who was wearing a white robe descended from the carriage. He looked up to see Mo Xuetong standing in front of the carriage door. Then, he put his hands together in greeting, smiled, and entered the manor.

A guard had already seen him approaching and had entered the manor speedily to inform Mo Huawen.

Another guard bowed deeply and smiled, "Sir Bai, Old Sir said to invite you in once you are here. He has been waiting for you in the study."

Bai Yihao laughed heartily and did not say anything. He turned around, winked at Mo Xuetong who was standing in front of her house in a daze and entered.

A slight smile appeared on his lips when he thought about those beautiful and clear eyes of hers. She seemed a little silly earlier but was rather adorable. The maids pa.s.sing by all stared at his handsome appearance. They all stopped where they were and what they were doing. They forgot about their difference in status and stared at him. This annoyed Bai Yihao. He swept his gentle eyes across the crowd, and those staring at him suddenly felt cold and shuddered. They emerged from their daze and did not dare to look at him again, hurriedly lowering their heads.
