Chapter 1363 - 1363 663 Little Crybaby (Third Update)

Chapter 1363: 663 Little Crybaby (Third Update) Chapter 1363: 663 Little Crybaby (Third Update) After the last class of the morning, Gu Jiao went to find Gu Xiaoshun for lunch.

Mu Qingchen thought for a moment and stopped her, “Are you really in need of silver?”

Gu Jiao looked at him.

He opened his mouth and said, “Actually, there is a job available. It’s a bit tough, but if you want it, I can take you there after school.”

“Alright,” Gu Jiao agreed.

Mu Qingchen frowned and looked at her, “Don’t you want to ask what the job is?”

Without thinking, Gu Jiao said, “What kind of inhumane job could a young master like you possibly come across?”

Mu Qingchen was at a loss for words.

After school, Gu Jiao told Gu Xiaoshun to go home first as she had something to take care of.

“Sis, do you want me to go with you?” Gu Xiaoshun asked in a low voice.

“No need,” Gu Jiao said.

She could manage the work on her own.

Gu Xiaoshun always listened to her and, scratching his head upon hearing her words, said, “Okay, then I’ll leave first, make sure you come back early too.”

After sending Gu Xiaoshun off, Gu Jiao turned right and took a few steps before getting on Mu Qingchen’s carriage and sitting down on the side seat.

Mu Qingchen seemed to have given the carriage driver instructions beforehand, as the driver didn’t say anything and just started driving the carriage.

The time was still early, and the carriage was stuffy, so Gu Jiao slightly pushed the window open.

Bright daylight streamed in, making everything in the carriage clearly visible.

Mu Qingchen’s gaze shifted and he caught sight of the ice-blue hair band on her head.

Such ice-blue silk fabric was very precious; one couldn’t buy it outside the city. Of course, one could purchase it inside the city, but Gu Jiao didn’t usually indulge in luxurious dressing habits.

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

“The hairband is nice,” Mu Qingchen looked away.

Gu Jiao touched the hairband that Xiao Hen gave her and said, “Yeah, I think it’s nice too!”

Mu Qingchen couldn’t help but take another look at her. There was an unmistakable joy in her eyes, whether it was for the hairband that was obviously not bought by herself or the prospect of earning money, it was hard to tell.

“Now you’re somewhat famous. There will be quite a few people who will want to get to know you. Don’t get too close to just anyone,” he advised.

“Oh,” Gu Jiao responded.

Gu Jiao had thought he would take her inside the city for work, but to her surprise, the carriage turned and headed in another direction towards the outer city.

About ten li to the east, the carriage arrived at a grand and imposing residence. Several guards were stationed at the entrance of the residence. The carriage driver showed a token, and one of the guards came over.

Mu Qingchen lifted the curtain and said to the guard, “It’s me.”

The guard quickly bowed his hands and let the carriage pass.

The carriage drove into the residence and along a small path for a while, finally stopping outside a grassland.

“Young Master, we’ve arrived,” the carriage driver said.

Mu Qingchen got off the carriage.

Gu Jiao followed suit and jumped down as well.

“Wow.”

Upon seeing the scene before her, Gu Jiao couldn’t help but let out a cry of amazement.

Was this really inside a residence?

Such a huge grassland!

To the east of the grassland was a fruit garden, to the south a forest, and to the west was the path from which they had come, deep and meandering. As for the north, there was a lotus pond.

The lotus leaves in the pond were as green as jade, and the tips of white and pink lotus buds poked through.

The scenery was too beautiful.

“Where is this?” Gu Jiao asked.

“The residence of Lord Yun Shan,” Mu Qingchen replied.

“Lord Yun Shan?” Gu Jiao had never heard of him before.

Mu Qingchen didn’t explain much, and just then, a pretty maid with a clear and lovely appearance came trotting over with a smile and greeted Mu Qingchen, “Young Master Qingchen!”

Mu Qingchen nodded slightly, “Is your young master here?”

“Yes,” the maid said with a smile, “I will take Young Master Qingchen there, and this is—”

Her eyes fell on Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao, like Mu Qingchen, was wearing the Academy’s uniform.

She just looked a bit young, and the birthmark on her left face was hard to ignore.

Mu Qingchen introduced her calmly, “My classmate, last name Xiao.”

“Young Master Xiao,” the maid greeted politely.

Gu Jiao nodded her head.

“This way, please,” the maid didn’t ask why Mu Qingchen had brought a classmate along, and led them toward the other side of the grassland, to the fruit garden.

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

As they entered the fruit garden, Gu Jiao heard several anxious voices of young girls.

“Young Noble! Don’t climb the tree!”

“Young Noble, please come down!”

“Young Noble! We won’t be able to explain this to the master if you carry on like this!”

Gu Jiao was pondering who the young noble mentioned by the people might be, wondering if it was a girl about the same age as Su Xue, when she saw a delicate little girl atop a peach tree.
