Chapter 4917: 5.0669 Good Act
Seeing the expression on her little stoic face soften a bit, Young Master Wu's heart slightly relaxed. He quickly smiled pleasingly at her. "Qiaoqiao, dinner and snacks are ready. Shall I have someone bring them to you?"
Qiao Mu snorted. She had intended to retort, "You think I'd still eat the Qin family's food?"
But then she thought, why not eat what's free? Why make things difficult for myself? That would be silly.
So, she reluctantly nodded her small head, her little face cold, and said, "Bring them quickly!"
Young Master Wu scurried off to give orders, feeling no issues whatsoever.
He was already accustomed to the little girl's emperor-like tone of command.
As long as the little girl gave an order, he just had to obey...
The little stoic-faced girl was sitting in the cabin, flipping through a thin book of herbs, when she heard a slight noise at the door.
Young Master Wu entered with a few servants carrying a sumptuous dinner.
Behind them, Young Master Qin Da also followed in with a smile, still wearing a familiar expression, and greeted Lord Qiaoqiao.
"Qiaoqiao, was your advancement smooth?"
Qiao Mu gave him a roll of her eyes: Don't you have eyes to see for yourself?
Young Master Da sat down in front of her with a smile, speaking to himself. "It seems it went very smoothly."
Qiao Mu picked up her rice bowl, too lazy to bother with him, and began to eat on her own.
She needed to eat her fill to find an opportunity to escape. Anyway, her cultivation was stable now, so she could run at any time!
But before that, she had to find that group of weaklings from the Mu family.
Murong Fei, Murong Yan, and Yun Yunzhi were also in their hands. These nominal senior brothers and sisters also needed to be rescued and taken away!
"When did you start suspecting me, Qiaoqiao?" Young Master Qin Da asked with a smile, as if he were just asking about trivial everyday matters.
Qiao Mu's hand, holding a piece of vegetable, paused slightly. She slowly brought a piece of braised pork to her mouth.
"Qiaoqiao, I'm very curious."
Qiao Mu put down her chopsticks, straightened her expression, and looked up at the handsome young master sitting in front of her, smiling with a gentle, spring-like demeanor.
She asked very seriously, "Seven Flowers and Gong Songfeng, are they your people, or Qin Er's?"
"My people," Young Master Da admitted very straightforwardly.
Qiao Mu nodded. Some previous questions could now mostly be connected.
"So, back in Red River Canyon, when Gong Songfeng, who was then the head of the Ghost Face Hall, was using spiritual stone cannons to bombard us, he sent you a message with a communication jade talisman, right?"
"Yes, Qiaoqiao, I never thought of harming you," Young Master Da said with emotion. "Did you notice such details too?"
"The one who wanted to kill you was my father. The internal strife within Heavenly Fate at that time was because my father's subordinates were very dissatisfied with Gong Songfeng's attitude."
"They believed that this Hall Master Gong of the Earth遁 Hall intentionally let us go. But in fact, Hall Master Gong was following your orders."
"Mm-hmm." Young Master Da nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking rice. "I ordered them not to harm you."
Qiao Mu showed no appreciation, casting a cold glance at him.
"You acted very well."
"Even I was kept in the dark by you until recently when I finally figured out your identity."
"Of course, perhaps it's because you have a troublesome Steward Luo around you, who deliberately made me realize your identities."
