Chapter 84: I kissed you secretly and you didn't know it

When Chu Wanning woke up, he saw Mo Ran sitting at the table with his cheeks in his hands, a bean of light reflected in his dark eyes, so bright that they were hollow.

""

Chu Wanning tried to sit up but had little strength and had to give up.

The curtains of the snow-green tent fluttered gently, and he turned sideways to stare noiselessly at Mo Ran, but the second fool was still absorbed in himself, not noticing that his master was awake.

It is not his fault that anyone would be less than thrilled to learn that his lover had a son with another woman.

Is Xia Sini really Chu Wanning's illegitimate son? How is this possible? Chu Wanning is so high-minded and discerning, what woman in the world could he possibly want?

Moreover, if the illegitimate child was true, Chu Wanning must have had it in his previous life, but in all their years together, Chu Wanning's behaviour and behavior, as well as his love affairs, had nothing to do with the word "husband".

But what's the deal with this Goldie Hair Button?

Mo Ran banged her forehead on the table in agony, going crazy with angst.

He was not smart enough to think about this kind of thing, and the more he thought about it, the bigger his head got, so he simply clutched his head with an "oooh" and sank down on the table.

" Mo Ran, do what"

A deep, beautiful voice like a kunzan jade shattering voice rang through the room, with a bit of huskiness.

Bouncing up abruptly, Mo Ran said in astonishment, "Master, you're awake."

"Hmm." Chu Wanning coughed softly and lifted her eyes to look at him, "This is the inn on Linling Island."

"Yes, yes." Mo Ran stood up and walked over to the bed. Suddenly she saw that Chu Wanning's lower lip seemed to have some broken skin, and her face turned red when she thought that she had been in a moment of confusion and had not been able to control it, and had almost made a big mistake.

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Chu Wanning said, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing." Mo Ran waved his hand repeatedly and changed the subject, "It's like this, Master suddenly fainted in Xuanyuan Court, so I carried the cough and brought you here to rest. I got a doctor to prescribe medicine, and then"

I heard you talking in your sleep, thought of the past, couldn't resist and kissed you.

But there was no way to say these words, and Mo Ran's voice trailed off, her gaze in a rare panic, and she looked increasingly embarrassed.

Chu Wanning heard that he had called a doctor and saw that he looked different, so his heart thudded, fearing that he already knew that he had been poisoned and that his body would become smaller. He asked in a muffled voice, "I am afraid he already knows that he has been poisoned and that his body will become smaller.

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that Master was under the influence of that Shenwu and that's why he couldn't support himself." Mo Ran hesitated for a moment and continued, "Master, your spirit core"

"No matter, it's just more fragile than normal."

Mo Ran was stunned, he had been thinking about Chu Xun and Chu Wanning having scars on their chests and guessed that there was some sort of connection between them, but hearing Chu Wanning say this, it didn't seem to be the case. He couldn't help but ask, "How could this be so? If your master is so powerful, you must not have been born with a weak spirit core.

"It's been a long time, ever since I had an injury years ago." Chu Wanning waved his hand carelessly, that wasn't his concern, "Did the doctor say anything else?"

Mo Ran shook her head and said, "Nothing more."

The candlelight was hazy and Chu Wanning gave him a deep look and said, "Then what did you do when you hit your head against the table?"

"" Mo Ran held it in for a while, unable to hold it in any longer, he simply gave up and took out the golden butterfly hair button from his sleeve and spread it on his palm.

"I found this."

""

"It's on you."

The hair buckle shone brightly in gold, but Chu Wanning's heart kept sinking.

Sure enough, he knew after all, and in the end, couldn't hide it.

There was a long silence as they sighed softly, neither of them speaking again. At last, Chu Wanning closed his eyes and was about to tell the truth when he heard Mo Ran whisper, "Master, is Master Xia really your son?"

Chu Wanning :""

When I opened my eyes, the blood that had been frozen to ice seemed to flow again. For a moment, Chu Wanning stared in silence at Mo Weiyu, who was beside him with a complicated look on his face, and his eyes gradually froze into two clear words: "Idiot".

"Right." Chu Wanning raised his hand indifferently and took away the gold butterfly hair clasp without waiting for Mo Ran's response, "I told you that already, why are you asking again?"

Mo Ran covered her face and said, "I'm just making sure again."

Although Chu Wanning has repeatedly admitted that Xia Sini is his flesh and blood, Mo Ran is still half-heartedly convinced and, despite his intense discomfort, he is determined to question Xia Sini when he meets her. He wouldn't believe him until he had a blood match between them!

After a short while, Chu Wanning recovered enough to get up from his couch.

"My clothes"

He stroked his lapel, stunned, and frowned: "How can it be so messy"

Mo Ran: "Ahem."

Lest he remember some scattered moments from before, Mo Ran went to start the conversation, "Master, you're hungry, aren't you? I've heard the food at this restaurant is good, and the Wenshi tofu is especially good.

Chu Wanning gave him a cold look, "It's not the money I gave you."

Despite these words, he pushed his way down the stairs with a broad-sleeved brush.

Linling Island's cuisine is similar to Yangzhou's in that it is light, fresh and sweet, which is to Chu Wanning's liking.

By this time the Xuan Yuan meeting had ended and most of the monks had already departed. After they were seated, the waiter served two glasses of Biluochun, presented the menu and left.

"The Master will see it first."

"Take your pick, I like all the dishes around Jiangnan." Chu Wanning said, picking up his cup and taking a shallow sip of tea.

As soon as the tea touched his lips, however, he frowned suddenly, ""

Mo Ran: "What's wrong? It's hot"

"No harm done. Perhaps the weather is too dry and the corners of my mouth are a little chapped." Chu Wanning said, touching the corners of his lips with some confusion.

Strange, when did it break

""

Mo Ran immediately bowed her head sheepishly.

It took a while for the food to be ready, so Chu Wanning and Mo Ran talked about Xuanyuan Court, and both left early, not knowing who the final winner of Shenwu would be, but that didn't matter, so they just went out and asked around.

As the conversation progresses, the table is gradually filled with an array of Yangzhou dishes, and Chu Wanning feels that further questions will yield no further information, so he stops talking about it. His gaze swept over the bowls, plates and cups on the table, and after a pause, his eyes lifted a few inches and fell on the face of the young man across from him, who was smiling a little apprehensively.

Chu Wanning asks, "Have you been to Jiangnan before?"

Mo Ran had been to see the almond blossom rain before he was reborn, but he hadn't forgotten that he was only seventeen and had only been at the top of death and life for about two years, so he immediately shook his head, "I've never been here before."

Chu Wanning lowered his eyes, his expression flat and his voice clear, and said, "But you ordered a good table."

""

It was only when he said this that Mo Ran suddenly realised that he had ordered all the food to Chu Wanning's liking. I wanted him to eat well and recover, but I had forgotten that I was not supposed to know Huaiyang cuisine so well.

"I worked in the back kitchen at the theater as a kid, and I didn't try many of the dishes, but I had more or less heard of them."

Chu Wanning didn't look into it: "Let's eat."

Jiangnan is a place where crab are wrapped in baskets, shrimps in bamboo cages and fish in wickerwork, so river and seafood abound on the beechwood square tables. Crispy eels are deep-fried and doused in sauce, sweet and sour squirrel fish, prawns, chrysanthemum snails, and chub heads are served in a variety of ways.

The meat and vegetables and cold desserts are also exquisitely presented and very elegant.

Lion's Head with Crabmeat, Crystal Pork, Shredded Pork in Chicken Sauce, Xiao Long Bao in Soup, Wenzi Tofu, the list goes on and on.

Mo Ran watched as the waiter put the last of the cinnamon cakes on the table, and then quietly glanced at Chu Wanning. I wonder which of the many dishes he will eat first.

After thinking about it, secretly betting with myself.

It must be the Lion's Head with Crabmeat.

This is Chu Wanning's favourite Yangzhou dish, and as expected, his chopsticks were the first to go over there as soon as the dish was prepared.

Mo Ran sighed in his heart, "This man is always so predictable, he eats and works, he is always the same.

Gulp. A lovely round lion's head falls into Mo Ran's bowl.

Change

Mo Ran looked up in astonishment, and gradually something of a flattered look came over his face, "Master, Master."

"I have been unwell for a few days, so I have asked you to look after me."

He hadn't heard wrong, Mo Ran, and was increasingly appalled.

Chu Wanning actually told him to take care of you

He had never said that in his life.

Chu Wanning saw the young man's face slowly redden, his eyebrows relax, his eyes slowly widen, and a hair on his forehead curl and shake in a trembling manner. Master Chu sips his tea again.

My lips are sore

In fact, during the days when he became Xia Sini's companion, Chu Wanning was already feeling a little self-conscious. When he reflected on it at midnight, he felt that he had been too harsh, and that he had been unkind to Mo Ran. Since then, he has told himself that he must not behave like that again when he is reinstated and that he must change some of his ways.

When Xuan Ji came to Peach Blossom Yard, Chu Wanning coughed for half a day and reluctantly asked him how to make his apprentice less intimidated by himself.

Xuan Ji froze for a moment and then said, "First of all, you have to show care to your disciple appropriately."

Expressing care

Thinking that Mo Ran had probably never eaten a lion's head with crabmeat, Chu Wanning spoke gently and began, "The stewed lion's head with crabmeat is made from finely chopped top-quality pork, combined with shrimp roe, crabmeat and crabmeat, all of which are full and round. The lion's head is then simmered in a clear broth with green vegetables floating in it, and served in a red clay casserole."

""

Mo Ran is stunned.

What do you do when you're eating and memorising recipes?

Chu Wanning felt that he was being patient and caring for his pupil, so over the course of the meal, Mo Ran tasted every dish and listened to a bunch of recipes that sounded like he had memorised them from the JACL.

If it wasn't for Chu Wanning's deep, cool voice, I'm afraid Mo Ran would have had to leave the table.

"Hey, did you hear that the last lot of the Xuanyuan Court was sold to the Linyi School of Confucianism?"

The seats are separated by a bamboo curtain, so the voice from the next room is louder and can be heard clearly by Mo Ran and the others.

Chu Wanning abruptly stopped his presentation of the 'crystal delicacies' and exchanged glances with Mo Ran, staring and listening.

A gruff man was speaking, "How come I didn't hear that it was put Shenwu bar three hundred million gold and paid on the spot. Ouch really it's a sky high price, I've never seen that much money in my life."

"Look at you, don't you know that in addition to this Shenwu, the Confucianism School also spent $50 million on a butterfly bone beauty seat?"

"Oh my God, isn't the Butterfly Bone Beauty Seat used for raw food or dual cultivation? This is a disgraceful cultivation practice, but the number one sect in the world is actually doing it in such a grand manner.

"Brother Su is wrong. The Butterfly Bone Beauty Seat is a logical cultivation method, not a forbidden art. Although the Beauty Seat looks similar to us, it is not a mortal in the end. It is like eating immortal fruits to aid in refinement, and there is nothing to criticise."

"Hm, I beg to differ."

The other one laughed lightly, "The one who bought the beauty seat seems to be a young disciple of the Confucianism School who lives in seclusion, called Ye Xiaoxi. I heard he was quite a good-looking man, but I never thought he would be the kind of person who sleeps with women to improve his cultivation. I think the Confucianism School is also in its twilight."

Someone next to him laughed, "What's the point, everyone loves beauty."

The people in the neighbourhood argued around ethical morality and were not worth listening to anymore.

Chu Wanning repeats softly: " Shenwu was bought by the Confucianism School"

"It sounds like it."

Chu Wanning looked worried: "It's difficult. If we follow up this matter, we will have to go to the School of Confucianism to find out what happened."

When he said that, Mo Ran remembered and said softly, "His Holiness was a member of the Confucianism School."

"Hmm."

"Don't want to go back."

At the mention of the Confucianism School, Chu Wanning looked bored and said with a twitch of his brow, "Although this school is a famous school in the Upper Fairy World, I used to "

He was halfway through his sentence when suddenly there was a clamour of people in the hall and someone shouted, "Madam boss, I'll give you 500 gold to clear the venue immediately, all these customers will be thrown out of here today our young duke is going to pack the venue"
