Chapter 370: How can we hug and kiss each other in public?

But in the end, Chujiu actually won the competition.

She frowned and stared at the city lord: "You..."

"I lost. I admire you." The city lord smiled gently and clasped his fists towards her.

"I..." Chujiu was speechless.

After a pause, she sighed and smiled at him: "You are amazing."

The girl's eyebrows were curved like crescent moons, her cherry mouth was slightly naughty, her long hair was scattered in the breeze, and a few strands of hair were shining in the warm winter sun. Her originally fair cheeks were slightly red because of the fight just now and the caress of the cold wind, like a peach blossom in spring, which made people unable to take their eyes away and their heartbeats slowed down a few beats.

"Oh!"

"oops!!!"

"Eh?!"

There was a loud bang in the air, and at the same time the city lord's scream, which was getting farther and farther away, and the girl's terrified cry were heard.

No one knew where the city lord was sent flying to. The people below raised their hands and looked, only to see a star flashing in the distant sky.

The ninth day fell into a cold embrace.

"???"

She was still a little slow to react and blinked twice stupidly.

Mo Xinglan had a sinister look on his face. He held her face with one hand and forced her to look at him. He said coldly, "You've grown bolder, haven't you? Huh?"

Chujiu's eyelids twitched wildly. Although he didn't know what happened, he still lowered his head guiltily and whispered, "Not fat, not fat. Xingxing, I was wrong."

No matter what, just admit your mistake first.

Mo Xinglan raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong?"

Seeing that she admitted her mistake so quickly, he didn't think she really realized her mistake.

And soon his idea was confirmed.

I saw Chujiu blinking his eyes in confusion, as if he was thinking.

But she thought for a long time, and finally raised her eyes and smiled and kissed him on the cheek, and said sweetly: "I am wrong wherever Xingxing said I was wrong."

She stared at him as if everything Xingxing said was right.

Mo Xinglan: “…”

Well, since she is so eager to admit her mistake, I will let her go today.

He pursed his lips lightly and a faint smile appeared on his face, but when he lowered his eyes, the smile immediately disappeared.

He stared at her threateningly: "You are not allowed to smile at other men, look at other men, or even think about other men."

The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."

Very speechless.

Seeing that she didn't answer, the threat in his eyes became stronger: "Answer?"

"...Yes, yes, yes." She hesitated and was forced to answer.

Who is this?

The audience around them looked at this couple and felt inexplicably full. They didn't want to watch anymore, or they would die of fullness.

So the competition continued.

"Is Xingxing still angry now?" asked Chujiu.

Mo Xinglan raised his eyes without looking at her: "It's okay."

"Okay, now tell me about your business."

"My business?" Mo Xinglan frowned slightly, not understanding what she meant.

"Why, you don't know?" Chujiu raised his eyebrows, smiling, "I've only been in seclusion for a month, and there are rumors about the Demon Lord and another woman."

She tapped his chest with her fingertips: "My Lord, won't you give me an explanation?"

Mo Xinglan frowned and had a bad feeling in his heart.

"What rumors? I don't know." He had been extremely busy these days and had hardly left his study. He knew nothing about the rumors outside.

Chujiu snorted and looked at Shiyuan: "You tell him."

"Yes." Shi Yuan nodded and told Mo Xinglan the rumors spread among the servants in private.

Mo Xinglan's face suddenly became gloomy and his eyes were cold, and it seemed that he wanted to kill someone again.

"I didn't." He looked at her seriously, afraid that she would misunderstand.

Chujiu rarely saw him like this, and suddenly wanted to tease him. He pretended to be angry: "But why did I hear that people still send you food every day? And you eat it all up every time? It's like you haven't eaten for 800 years."

"I didn't eat any. It was all eaten by Huahua, Chifeng, and, oh, Fang Hao and the others." He explained hurriedly, feeling very aggrieved.

He regretted it so much now. If he had known earlier, he should not have asked Xing Shu for help. No, he should have forbidden her from even entering the Demon Palace.

Chujiu crossed his arms over his chest, looking unconvinced: "You really didn't eat anything?"

"I really didn't eat anything. I didn't even look at it." He explained anxiously and glanced at Fang Hao again. "Fang Hao can testify for me."

Being called out suddenly, Fang Hao was stunned for just a moment before receiving a sinister look.

He shuddered and said hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes, I can testify for you. You really didn't eat any of it, nor did you even look at it. As soon as the food was brought up, Huahua took it away."

Chujiu glanced at Fang Hao and pursed his lips.

If she saw it correctly just now, Xingxing threatened Fang Hao, right?

I had believed him at first and just wanted to tease him, but now I am a little skeptical.

Don't start: "Humph, he is your protector, doesn't he have to think about you whether you eat or not?"

Mo Xinglan thought of the look he had just used to threaten Fang Hao, and he regretted it so much. He was just anxious for Fang Hao to help him explain, but instead, she misunderstood him.

How could he explain it now?

If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Huahua and Chifeng to find out about Hualing's situation later.

Seeing that she turned her face away and didn't want to look at him, he felt very aggrieved.

She lowered her eyebrows and pursed her lips: "You don't believe me?"

She bit her lip and said helplessly: "What should I do for you to believe me?"

As he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Wu Li beside him.

"?!" Wu Li's eyes were shocked, and his bad premonition became stronger.

Mo Xinglan opened his lips, but before he could say anything, Chujiu covered his mouth with his hand.

"Alright, alright, I trust you. Just don't cause any deaths."

Looking at his eyes, she knew what he was going to do next.

"Do you really trust me, or are you saying this because you don't want me to kill anyone?" Mo Xinglan took her hand away.

She sighed: "I really believe you."

His eyes flickered as he spoke: "I just said that on purpose because I wanted to see your sincerity."

She didn't dare tell him that she was just teasing him.

I glanced at Wu Li and just happened to receive his anxious look with a hint of help.

He smiled secretly and looked back at Mo Xinglan: "What are you going to do to Xing Shu?"

"Kill him." He said without hesitation, his eyes calm.

These two words almost made Wu Li kneel on the ground. His heart trembled violently as he took a step forward and begged, "My Lord, I am the one who taught Sun Wufang. If you want to punish me, punish me. Please let Xing Shu go."

Chujiu was also shocked after hearing this: "Xingxing, I'm not telling you to kill her. I'm telling you to remind you..."

He paused, thinking it was unnecessary, and said, "It's wrong to kill anyone who likes you."

"So what do you want?" He looked unhappy.

Chujiu was slightly stunned, his eyes flickered as he thought about it, and said firmly: "Anyway, you don't have to worry about it. As a man, don't interfere in women's affairs."

"..."

"Did you hear that?" Seeing that he didn't say anything, she poked his chest.

"……Um."

Mo Xinglan was silent for a moment and responded reluctantly.

Wu Li on the side finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood back in his original position and looked at Chu Jiu with gratitude.

Chujiu received the look and smiled secretly, then looked back at Mo Xinglan who looked unhappy.

Some people were a little amused and said, "What's wrong with you? Logically, I should be the one who is angry, so why are you still angry? Huh?"

She pulled up a strand of hair that was hanging down his back and swept the end of it across his face.

He frowned slightly and turned his face away: "But you are not angry at all."

Her angry look just now was all a lie to him. He even thought she misunderstood him.

Chujiu sighed: "Actually, when I first heard what Shiyuan said, I was angry. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that you would not betray me, so I was not angry. I was not angry because I trusted you."

After hearing this, Mo Xinglan was stunned for a moment, then his brows softened a little, and he turned his face away and said in a muffled voice: "I'll trust you for once."

It was rare to see him in this awkward state. Chujiu thought he was so cute and snuggled in his chest, secretly curling her lips.

The competition on the field was in full swing. No one gave the other party any slack, but they were not as ruthless as before. They just stopped when the time was right.

Chujiu was very satisfied with the result. It seemed that what she said had worked.

Suddenly, I thought of something and smiled knowingly: "Xingxing, did you know that I will be out of isolation soon?"

"Yeah, I know." He answered without hesitation.

Chujiu narrowed his eyes and looked at him carefully: "So, you didn't deliberately let me say those words to them before?"

Otherwise, he would definitely stop her, and he would not cooperate with her to play the bad guy.

He smiled meaningfully: "Yeah."

Only in this way can everyone in the Demon Realm be convinced of her and have no objection to her.

How could she not understand what he was thinking? She felt warm inside and hugged him tightly.

Mo Xinglan also tightened his arms around her.

After a while, Chujiu realized something, let go of him and looked up: "Shouldn't you let me go?"

"No." He refused without hesitation.

"How can you hug and kiss in public?" she said righteously, "Let me go now."

Mo Xinglan hugged him tighter and said with a smile: "Isn't it too late for you to say it now?"

After a pause, he pressed her head against his chest: "If you don't want to be controlled by me, just stay here obediently."

"..."

What else can she say? Just stay still.

So she spent the rest of the time sitting on his lap and being held by him.

Snowflakes began to fall from the sky again, the sky gradually darkened, and today's competition was coming to an end.

The relationship between the Mohist Army and the Moyu Army finally eased.

This is also a scene that Mo Xinglan is happy to see.

He lowered his eyes to look at the person in his arms, who was already asleep, holding his hair in his hands. He smacked his lips, as if he was dreaming about something delicious again.

He gently rubbed his chin on her head, worry flashing through his downcast eyes. He took one of her hands and gently placed his fingers on her wrist.

I felt relieved only when I found no hidden injuries.

A few days ago, his heart suddenly beat violently, and he guessed that she must have encountered some danger and got injured during her cultivation, so he quickly sensed her situation through the Half-Life Pearl. Only then did he know that she was in a state of illusion. So he spent some time helping her break the illusion.

Fearing that she would be in danger again, her injuries were transferred again.

Even now, he still feels scared when he thinks about how she almost went insane during her practice.

Fortunately, she is fine.

The competition finally ended after a few days. After these days of running-in, the relationship between the Mohist Army and the Moyu Army gradually improved.
