Shen Mo looked at the scenery below. This story was so ancient that even with a family tree, it was impossible to tell which ancestor belonged to which generation. It was so ancient that the story was even used by his father to lull him to sleep when he was young. No one knew whether the events in the story were true or false.
"In fact, with the strength of our ancestor at that time, he could have ascended to leave this world, but he preferred to exhaust his lifespan and die in the Star Gazing Pavilion just to wait for Mr. Fei to return. However, he never got to see that person again." Shen Mo held Qin Moyu's hand tightly. When he was a child, he did not understand why his ancestor was so stubborn in waiting for someone who would not return. That's why he secretly climbed up the Star Gazing Pavilion to find his ancestor's secret, but he only saw the beautiful scenery in front of him.
But now he understands.
I can also guess what kind of question my ancestor asked Mr. Fei.
"Mo Yu."
Qin Moyu noticed that Shen Mo had let go of his hand at some point. He turned around, and Shen Mo was still the same Shen Mo, but something seemed different about him.
He saw that Shen Mo's dark eyes were no longer as deep as before, but rather a tenderness that could drown one, making all the lights of the houses seem like mere background to Shen Mo.
He heard him say that.
"If I were to offer the world as my gift, would you be willing to be my Daoist partner?"
Chapter 83. All that has happened in the past is but a prologue...
Qin Moyu was so startled by Shen Mo's sudden marriage proposal that she took a step back, her mind going blank for a moment, and she stammered, "I...I...I..."
I talked for a long time, but I couldn't explain it clearly.
Qin Moyu patted his face, the burning heat spreading from his heart to his face. He tried hard to calm himself down, but he couldn't calm down at all.
Unable to calm down, Qin Moyu instinctively wanted to run away, just like when Shen Yebai confessed his feelings before.
—In a way, Qin Moyu can also be considered a "scumbag".
Fortunately, Shen Mo understood Qin Moyu very well and didn't give him a chance to become a scumbag, pressing Qin Moyu down first.
"Mo Yu, don't you have anything to say to me?" Shen Mo's gaze was sharp as he stared intently at Qin Mo Yu, not daring to miss a single change in his expression.
Qin Moyu took a deep breath, feeling that if this were a comic book, he would probably be steaming from his head. He looked left and right but wouldn't look at Shen Mo, stammering, "It's too, too sudden... and, and what did you mean just now?"
What does "treating the world as a model of propriety" even mean? How incredibly childish!
but……
Qin Moyu tried hard to suppress the smile on his lips. Dividing the world equally was perhaps the most romantic and hardcore love confession of an emperor—and given Shen Mo's personality, he really could do what he said.
really--
"The literal meaning," Shen Mo said matter-of-factly, completely unaware of how many ancestors he was about to infuriate. "Mo Yu, have you forgotten? I once said that whatever you want, I will find it for you, even if it's a family heirloom of the Southern Kingdom's royal family. Does Mo Yu know what giving away a family heirloom means?"
Qin Moyu didn't know what a family heirloom represented, but since Shen Mo had specifically mentioned it, it was probably something like a token of love.
Thinking of this, Qin Moyu secretly glanced at Shen Mo, then quickly looked away.
“Just as Mo Yu thought,” Shen Mo chuckled softly.
But if the heirloom really meant that, then it means that Shen Yebai had already fallen in love with Qin Moyu at that time.
The person he liked had liked him a long, long time ago. It would be a lie for Qin Moyu to say he wasn't happy, but he still pretended to be indifferent and snorted, saying, "So cliché... I don't care."
Although he said that, Qin Moyu couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.
Shen Mo was extremely fond of Qin Moyu's proud and aloof demeanor, and his heart softened completely. He leaned closer, touched his forehead with Qin Moyu's, and said with a smile, "Since Moyu has accepted the family heirloom, then I'll take that as a yes."
"Wait!? When did I receive it— um—"
Qin Moyu's words were abruptly cut off by Shen Mo's kiss. His wide, shocked eyes were round and exceptionally cute.
Shen Mo reached out and encircled Qin Moyu, holding her tightly in his arms. Looking down at Qin Moyu's astonished expression, he couldn't help but smile, but the struggle between their lips and teeth remained unabated.
This wasn't the first time Qin Moyu had been kissed so awkwardly that she was completely out of sorts. Shen Mo's possessive kiss had unusually stirred up her competitive spirit, and she was determined to take the initiative.
But as it turns out, Shen Mo not only has amazing talent in formations, but also learns very quickly in terms of close contact with Qin Moyu.
After the kiss, Qin Moyu was completely dizzy and disoriented, forgetting her initial ambitions. Her hands and feet were weak, and she leaned against Shen Mo, panting softly. Her eyes were slightly red, and she almost cried from being "bullied".
"You're all about family at the drop of a hat? Are you a teddy bear?" Qin Moyu angrily punched Shen Mo, unwilling to admit that she was the one who was incompetent.
Shen Mo had kissed her enough and was in a very good mood. He smiled and stroked Qin Moyu's hair, as if stroking it: "What's a Teddy?"
Ever since Qin Moyu told Shen Mo about her time travel, she would occasionally use modern terms when chatting with Shen Mo. Shen Mo was very curious about the world Qin Moyu lived in in her previous life, so she would ask what these terms meant every time.
Qin Moyu tugged at Shen Mo's hair and said irritably, "A dog that's all high and mighty in springtime, are you satisfied now?"
"Does Mo Yu like teddy bears?"
"It's alright." Qin Moyu thought about the fluffy appearance of the teddy bear, which was indeed very cute.
"That's it then." Shen Mo said matter-of-factly. As long as Mo Yu likes it, then whatever she says goes.
"...When did you become so shameless?"
Qin Moyu strongly suspected that Shen Mo had been possessed at some point, otherwise how could he be so shameless?
"Actually, I've always been shameless." Shen Mo blinked and spoke the truth with his eyes wide open.
To be able to devise such a grand plan, exploit the weaknesses of various continental forces, and use both kindness and coercion to subdue them, Shen Mo's shamelessness is even more infuriating than Qin Moyu imagined.
—Only in front of Qin Moyu does Shen Mo appear to be a "model young man".
After Shen Mo's antics, Qin Moyu's initial sense of defeat dissipated. They cuddled together for a while before he suddenly remembered that there was something he had forgotten.
