After finishing the last class of the morning, Gu Jiao went to find Gu Xiaoshun for lunch.

Mu Qingchen thought for a moment and called out to her, "Are you really short on money?"

Gu Jiao looked at him.

He opened his mouth and said, "There is indeed a job, but it is a bit tough. If you want it, I can take you there after school."

"Okay." Gu Jiao agreed.

Mu Qingchen frowned as he looked at her, "Aren't you going to ask what the job is?"

Gu Jiao replied without hesitation, "What kind of inhumane job could a young master like you be involved with?"

Mu Qingchen was at a loss for words.

After school, Gu Jiao told Gu Xiaoshun to go home first as she had some matters to attend to.

"Big sis, should I go with you?" Gu Xiaoshun asked quietly.

"No need." Gu Jiao replied.

She could handle the job on her own.

Gu Xiaoshun always listened to her. Hearing this, he scratched his head and said, "Oh, then I'll go first. You come back early too."

After sending off Gu Xiaoshun, Gu Jiao turned right and walked a few steps before getting into Mu Qingchen's carriage and sitting in the side seat.

Mu Qingchen had probably given instructions earlier, so the coachman started the carriage without saying a word.

It was still early, and the carriage was stuffy, so Gu Jiao slightly opened the carriage window.

Bright sunlight streamed in, making everything inside the carriage clearly visible.

Mu Qingchen glanced over and noticed the ice-blue hair ribbon on her head.

This ice-blue silk material was very precious and couldn't be bought in the outer city. Of course, it could be purchased in the inner city, but Gu Jiao usually didn't have luxurious tastes in her clothing.

"Why are you looking at me?" Gu Jiao noticed his gaze.

"Nice hair ribbon." Mu Qingchen replied, withdrawing his gaze.

Gu Jiao raised her hand to touch the hair ribbon Xiao Heng had given her, and in her heart, she nodded a little, "Yeah, I think it's nice too!"

Mu Qingchen couldn't help but glance at her again. There was a visible joy in her eyes, but whether it was for the hair ribbon, which was clearly not bought by herself, or for the job she was about to do to earn money, he couldn't tell.

"You've made a name for yourself now. Gradually, many people will want to get to know you. Don't get too close to just anyone."

"Oh." Gu Jiao responded.

Gu Jiao thought he would take her to work in the inner city, but unexpectedly, the carriage turned and headed in the other direction of the outer city.

After traveling east for about ten miles, the carriage arrived at a grand and imposing mansion. Several guards were stationed at the entrance. The coachman showed a token, and one of the guards approached.

Mu Qingchen lifted the curtain and said to the guard, "It's me."

The guard quickly saluted and let the carriage pass.

After the carriage entered the mansion, it followed a path for a while before stopping outside a meadow.

"Young Master, we have arrived." The coachman said.

Mu Qingchen got off the carriage.

Gu Jiao immediately followed and jumped down as well.

"Whoa."

Seeing the scene before her, Gu Jiao couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Was this really inside a mansion?

Such a large grass field!

To the east of the meadow was an orchard, to the south a forest, to the west was where they came from, with a long, winding path, and to the north was a lotus pond.

The lotus leaves in the pond were as green as jade, with small white and pink lotus flowers peeking out.

The scenery was breathtaking.

"Where is this?" Gu Jiao asked.

"This is the residence of Lord Yanshan." Mu Qingchen answered.

"Lord Yanshan?" Gu Jiao had never heard of him.

Mu Qingchen didn't explain further. At that moment, a graceful servant girl approached with small steps, smiling as she greeted Mu Qingchen, "Young Master Qingchen!"

Mu Qingchen nodded slightly and asked, "Is your young lady here?"

"She is." The servant girl replied with a smile, "Let this servant take Young Master Qingchen over. And this is——"

Her gaze fell on Gu Jiao. freēwebnovel.com

Gu Jiao was dressed in the uniform of Tianqiong Academy, just like Mu Qingchen.

However, she looked a bit younger, and that birthmark on her left cheek was impossible to ignore.

Mu Qingchen calmly introduced, "My classmate, surnamed Xiao."

"Young Master Xiao." The servant girl greeted politely.

Gu Jiao nodded.

"Please come this way." The servant girl said, without further questioning Mu Qingchen about why he brought his classmate here. She led them towards the orchard on the other side of the meadow.

They encountered many servants along the way, all of whom recognized Mu Qingchen.

As they entered the orchard, Gu Jiao heard several anxious voices of young servant girls.

"Princess! Don't climb the tree!"

"Princess, please come down quickly!"

"Princess! We won't be able to explain to the master if something happens to you!"

Gu Jiao was pondering who the princess they were referring to was, wondering if she was a girl around the same age as Su Xue. Just then, she saw a delicate and exquisite little girl sitting on a peach tree.

The little girl had climbed up high on the branches. The servants dared not climb after her because the branches were thin and might break if they tried.

"Little County Princess." Mu Qingchen called softly.

The little girl turned towards them abruptly, her large eyes lighting up, "Mu Qingchen!"

Hmm, she actually addressed him by his full name.

Mu Qingchen walked over, and the little girl opened her arms, jumping down without hesitation.

The servant girls screamed in fright.

Mu Qingchen effortlessly caught her and set her down gently on the ground.

The Little County Princess raised her small head and asked seriously, "Why haven't you come to see me for so long? Are you trying to be lazy and not teach me?"

Her voice was sweet and childish.

Mu Qingchen smiled gently and replied, "I've been quite busy lately, but I came as soon as I finished."

The Little County Princess nodded, "Yeah, I heard. You went to participate in the polo match. Did you win?"

Mu Qingchen answered earnestly, "Thanks to the princess's blessing, I won two matches."

"Not bad." Little County Princess commented, then she noticed Gu Jiao walking towards them as she turned her head, "Hmm? Who are you?"

Mu Qingchen introduced, "He’s the tutor I've chosen for the princess. She's skilled in horsemanship."

The Little County Princess tilted her head and looked at Gu Jiao, then turned back to Mu Qingchen, "Is he better than you?"

Mu Qingchen nodded with a smile, "Yes, he is better than me. He even tamed the wild horse king at our academy. He also participated in the polo tournament."

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
