Transcending the Nine Heavens

Chapter 299: Xiao Wu, You Must Be Happy

As a member of a large family, Ji Mo naturally knew the fate of those who had lost their future. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. However, this was a family matter of the Mo Family, and although he was a cousin, it was not appropriate for him to intervene.

He could only silently decide in his heart: if it truly is… then I must do everything I can to find a good place for my cousin! So she wouldn’t have to suffer for a lifetime.

“You go ahead, I’ll stay with Xiao Wu for a bit and come later,” Ji Mo said.

Mo Qingwu watched from the side, her eyes welling up with tears, her small hands twisting anxiously, filled with unease.

“Xiao Wu, come here, let’s see the gift Brother Chu Yang asked me to bring you,” Ji Mo forced down his discomfort and put on a cheerful face, taking Mo Qingwu's small hand and leading her into her room.

“Come, let’s see what this is.” Ji Mo took out a medium-sized jade bottle first, inside was the vitality spring water that Chu Yang had asked him to bring. A generous bottle!

“What is this? Water? Wine?” Mo Qingwu looked suspiciously at the jade bottle, and the next moment gently caressed it, raising her face with hope and asking, “Is this jade bottle from Brother Chu Yang?”

“Yes,” Ji Mo was taken aback; Chu Yang’s jade bottle? The precious thing was the water inside, alright?

“Brother Chu Yang…” Mo Qingwu suddenly hugged the jade bottle tightly to her chest, tears streaming down her face. At that moment, seeing this jade bottle felt as if she had seen Chu Yang himself, and the pain that had been suppressed for months surged up like the Yellow River flooding.

She cried for a long time.

Ji Mo was at a loss. He never expected that a mere jade bottle could evoke such an emotional response from Mo Qingwu...

After a long time, Mo Qingwu finally stopped sobbing.

“Drink it quickly. This is an invaluable treasure, the vitality spring water,” Ji Mo lowered his voice and said, “Brother Chu Yang repeatedly instructed me to watch you drink it.”

“But I… but I can’t bear to drink it…” Mo Qingwu blinked her big eyes, looking at Ji Mo with a pitiful expression, “If I drink it… it will be gone…”

“Silly girl, what’s there to be reluctant about?” Ji Mo hurriedly advised, “If you drink this, your body will improve a lot, and if you’ve been injured, it won’t leave scars…”

“But I still can’t bear to drink it…” Mo Qingwu was about to cry again, “Can I keep it?”

“But if you don’t drink it… Brother Ji Mo will be angry,” Ji Mo coaxed, but seeing it had no effect, he could only say, “If Brother Chu Yang knew that you wouldn’t drink the vitality spring water he went through so much trouble to get for you, he would be sad…”

“Then I’ll drink it!” Mo Qingwu quickly nodded vigorously, “I’ll drink it now!”

Watching Mo Qingwu tilt her head back and gulp down the entire bottle of vitality spring water, Ji Mo was astonished: Is Chu Yang’s influence really this great?

After drinking the vitality spring water, Mo Qingwu hugged the jade bottle tightly to her chest, cherishing it immensely.

“What else did Brother Chu Yang ask you to bring me?” Mo Qingwu asked with hope.

“Hmm, there’s this, and this…” Ji Mo simply untied the bundle. Inside was a collection of toys, strange and varied.

“This is nice.” Mo Qingwu used her small hands to sift through them, pulling out a brightly colored bow. It was made entirely of Crimson Cloud Steel and Star Iron, bright red and reflecting specks of starlight, extremely beautiful.

Ji Mo’s lips twitched.

Every time he saw this bow, he had this reaction. To make a bow out of the essence of Crimson Cloud Steel and Star Iron for a little girl to play with… In the entire world, only Chu Yang could be this extravagant, right?

“This must be from Brother Chu Yang for me, and as for the rest, those must be bought by you, Brother Ji Mo?” Mo Qingwu tilted her head, lovingly examining the bow, casually asking.
