Chapter 1159: Chapter 368 True Love, Showdown_4

...

Mo Qingze returned to the Scholar Mansion with an unsettled mind, sitting alone in his study for a long time without moving. It wasn’t until Little Mo burst in, urging him to go to bed, that he realized it was already the middle of the night.

Mo Qingze slowly got up, moving his stiff body and numb legs until his circulation returned and he regained his agility, then he resumed his seat at the desk.

Little Mo, dissatisfied, pecked at his master’s hand, which was about to grind ink, squawking noisily, clearly dissatisfied with his master for not sticking to bedtime.

Even though Mo Qingze did not understand the language of birds, he understood what Little Mo was trying to convey and soothed it with a reluctant promise, "Behave for me, and I will just write a few words. Once I’m done, I’ll rest."

Understanding his words, Little Mo stopped squawking and just stood on the writing desk, staring intently at his master, obviously worried that his master might not keep his word, supervising him closely.

Mo Qingze, unable to help a smile, patted Little Mo’s head and truly, under the watchful eye of the small creature, ground the ink and began to write a line on the paper.

After carefully folding the piece of paper and tucking it into the message tube tied to Little Mo’s leg, Mo Qingze took out ten grains of rice as big as eggs from the drawer and placed them in his palm, "Eat quickly, and then deliver the letter home after you’re done."

Little Mo’s favourite treat was rice the size of egg grains; it gobbled up the food from its master’s palm in two or three pecks and eyed the closed drawer with drool. Only then did it reluctantly take to the sky with a flap of its wings.

The study regained its earlier tranquility, with only the cracking of the lamp wick breaking the silence. Mo Qingze’s silhouette was cast upon the window, appearing particularly lonely.

Mo Yan was busy processing medicinal materials in the Space and had not managed to sleep. When she emerged smelling of herbs, Little Mo had already been "knocking" on the window for quite some time, its beak practically numb.

Seeing Little Mo stretch out its leg, Mo Yan’s heart stirred, and she hurriedly took out the note from inside. Opening it, there was only one brief sentence: "Father wishes to marry Mrs. Cui Qingrou, may I?"

Mo Yan had not expected her father to lay his cards on the table so soon. It seemed that he had already communicated with the Cui family, who were also willing, and her father, considering the feelings of his children, had especially written to ask for their opinions.

Mo Yan was happy for her father’s joy, yet amidst her happiness, there was a tinge of discomfort—maybe that’s how everyone feels when they learn their father has found his happiness.

She blinked, hiding the sourness in her eyes, about to write back to her father, but then she stopped. She had no objections, she even wholeheartedly approved—but what about Xin Er? She couldn’t replace Xin Er’s true thoughts.

Thinking of this, Mo Yan let out a long sigh, secured the letter, and walked towards Xin Er’s courtyard...

In the days that followed, Mo Qingze, having received not a single word from his daughters, showed no sign of it on his face, but he was not at ease inside. Regardless of his daughters’ decision, he told himself he could accept it, but subconsciously, he hoped more for his daughters’ understanding.

There would be no issue with Zhenzhen’s side; siblings Yun Zhao and Yun Sheng always followed the lead of the three of them. The real concern for Mo Qingze was only his two daughters.

At the Cui family, Cui Qingrou carried on as if nothing had happened, going about her life as usual. In contrast to her indifference, Old Lady Cui and Grand Master Cui were far more anxious. Several times, Grand Master Cui almost couldn’t resist rushing to Hanlin Academy to force Mo Qingze to directly send for a matchmaker.

Under such unusual circumstances, the day for Mu Xiu arrived.

Mo Qingze, with a touch of exhaustion, returned to the Scholar Mansion. Not seeing Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao in the study, he was about to look for them to have them pack up and return home when he saw Zhenzhen rushing over with a letter in hand, shouting as she ran, "Father, quickly send for the matchmaker!"
