The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1077: Chapter 1075: What Color Tassel Do You Like?

The legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s Estate, she is of sufficient status to enter the palace as a Princess, and could even become a prince’s wife.

Marrying Mo Qi, he feared the old Prime Minister might kneel outside his hall all night again.

On this side, Leng Muling was still unaware of Su Yingxue’s intention to help her. As she followed Mo Qi out of the palace, she went from being extremely cautious at first to chatting with him by the time they reached the palace gate.

“Commander Mo, do you have to stand duty every day without a single day’s rest?” Leng Muling asked curiously.

“Not exactly,” he replied truthfully. “If the emperor does not leave the palace, then I need not stand guard every two hours. I can take a day off every week.”

Mo Qi answered truthfully.

“Then… are you off duty today? My uncle and sister took the carriage when they went home, and to call for our carriage, it will take two hours! Could I ask you to escort me to the Prime Minister’s Estate?”

Leng Muling’s face turned bright red, and her heartbeat sped up significantly after she finished speaking.

She was indeed quite bold.

But her uncle had said, the proper young misses from rich families rarely meet their true love!

She could not manage that much anymore.

After thinking for a moment, Mo Qi said, “At this moment, the emperor is accompanying Your Majesty, and should not summon me. I will escort Miss back home.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Great!”

Leng Muling beamed sweetly. Without a carriage, Mo Qi accompanied her on foot. They walked home with laughter and conversation. Although Mo Qi was not as talkative as she was, he was a good listener. When passing by a bustling marketplace, she even insisted on browsing with Mo Qi.

Seeing that Mo Qi had a jade pendant hanging at his waist, something resembling a token, she entered a shop, picked up a bundle of silk threads, and held it up to Mo Qi, saying, “Commander Mo, let me make you a tassel to hang on your jade pendant. Which color do you like?”

Mo Qi stepped back, “Thank you for your kind offer, Miss, but I cannot accept your gift.”

Leng Muling’s status was noble, and although he was the Imperial Guard Commander, there was still a strict divide in their status. Moreover, there were differences between men and women.

His rejection was too firm, and Leng Muling felt quite hurt.

However, she often mingled with Zhuo Junli and had a streak of boldness in her character. She said, “Commander Mo took the time to escort me home today. I would be restless if I did not repay such a kindness. How about I give you a tassel, and we’ll owe nothing to each other!”

She spoke with righteous words, but hidden intentions were indeed present.

Mo Qi had never met a girl who spoke like that, and for a moment, he did not know how to refuse.

Seeing that he did not decline, Leng Muling held the silk threads up to him and urged, “You pick one. Making a tassel is a small task, not too much trouble. Consider it a token of my thanks, Commander Mo!”

Mo Qi’s hand, involuntarily, brushed over a red silk thread—the first color his body reacted to wanting.

But a flicker of unexplained emotion crossed his mind, and his hand quickly moved away, finally resting on a blue thread. “This one then.”

“Blue? You like blue too?” Leng Muling was delighted. She turned around, showing him the hairpin on her head, “I also like blue. The hairpin is set with sapphires, and even the tassels are blue! We must be fated!”

Leng Muling’s excitement brought a hint of joy to the corners of Mo Qi’s eyes.

He nodded politely, “Then I thank you, Miss Leng.”

“No need for thanks. I can finish it in about three days. Let’s make a date, and you can come to collect it from me then!”

Leng Muling cheerfully made the arrangement with Mo Qi.

Mo Qi, seeing that she had bought the silk threads, returned home contentedly.
