Minglong

Chapter 452 Solo Performance Under the Moon
Fengyi River.

The two-story building stands quietly on the riverbank, surrounded by green plants and flowers, creating an elegant and tranquil environment.

Xie Jinhuan, carrying Linghu Qingmo on his back, leaped onto the riverside terrace from behind with practiced ease. He simply snapped his fingers, and the glass lamp lit up on its own, illuminating every corner of the living room with bright yellow light. The spotless brown floor even reflected the two of them.

Linghu Qingmo dismounted from the back and looked at the mansion, where land was incredibly expensive. He was quite puzzled, as he had no idea Xie Jinhuan owned such a property.
"This...this is where you raised your children?"

Xie Jinhuan hadn't expected the room to be so clean. Afraid of getting his shoes dirty and getting a beating from his mother-in-law, he took them off on the balcony.

"What do you mean by raising a child? This is your master's house."

"what?"

Linghu Qingmo then removed his embroidered shoes and looked around the simple living room:

"When did Master buy such a house? He didn't even tell me, how did you know?"

"Uh……"

Xie Jinhuan felt this was a bit difficult to explain, and after thinking for a moment, he responded:
“Your master is too famous. Living in the capital, he inevitably encounters some busybodies. So he bought a private residence near the Imperial Observatory without telling anyone. I only found out by accident when I was investigating a case in the capital. Since your master doesn’t live here often, I didn’t tell you.”

"Yeah……"

Linghu Qingmo isn't stupid; she's just too upright and wouldn't normally think things in a crooked way, especially suspecting her aloof master of having an affair.

Now that she knows her master is deeply in love and even plans to separate from her, she naturally begins to suspect that this might be where her master is secretly meeting with her behind her back...

Especially when Xie Jinhuan entered the bathroom with practiced ease and prepared bathwater using the Five Elements Water Method, it became clear that he had bathed here before...

"..."

Linghu Qingmo felt quite conflicted, but since her master was getting married, she couldn't bear the thought of turning against him because of the kindness of her upbringing and guidance. So she stopped thinking about it and looked around the living room alone, finally glancing at the bedroom.

Well, what a surprise! Looking up, I saw the bed covered in cute, adorable pillows and blankets, making it look more like the room of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. There was also a calligraphy scroll hanging on the wall, written in a flamboyant, elegant style:

I want to be a fairy!
?

Linghu Qingmo blinked, quite suspicious:
"Are you sure this is Master's private residence, and not Grandmaster's?"

"Ok?"

Xie Jinhuan didn't know anything about Xiao Biao either. Hearing the noise, he came to 'Tuotuo Happy House' and glanced at it. He also felt that it looked like the White-haired Fairy's residence.

To avoid any misunderstanding, Xie Jinhuan first carefully checked upstairs and downstairs to make sure the White-Haired Fairy wasn't there before replying:
"It must have been Senior Qixia who stayed here for a couple of days. It doesn't matter if your clothes are dirty. Just wash them and change into something clean."

As she spoke, Xie Jinhuan went to the wardrobe, looking for a dress that felt like ice, so that Qingmo could change into it first.

But when he opened the cabinet, he found it neatly filled with black stockings and color-changing erotic costumes...

?

Click——

Xie Jinhuan quickly closed the cabinet door, glancing left and right, as if to say:

Honey, stop this! How am I supposed to explain this?

Could this not be a brothel where someone keeps a mistress?
But the ghost didn't respond at all, as if it had never appeared.

Linghu Qingmo had already caught a glimpse of the items inside the wardrobe out of the corner of his eye. He opened the wardrobe again, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"These...are they Master's or Grandmaster's?"

"Uh……"

Xie Jinhuan felt that if he went back, he would probably be beaten to tears by Bing Tuozi, but he couldn't very well say it was his own, nor could he explain that it was a ghost who had dug the pit. So he braced himself and said:
“I haven’t been here for a long time either. Senior Qixia probably wouldn’t use these things. Hmm… Your master and Senior Bu are on good terms, so it’s understandable that he would buy some personal clothes to dress up…”

That belongs to Master...

Linghu Qingmo never imagined that her master was far more frivolous in private than she had thought. She immediately picked up the embarrassing undergarment and examined it closely:

"Master is quite... quite well-informed. This seems to be a newly released style. Wanyi just ordered a set and was showing it off to me..."

Xie Jinhuan felt his icy persona had completely crumbled, but he had to apologize later. Seeing the atmosphere had gotten this heated, Mo Mo, curious, smiled and encouraged him:

"Why don't you try them on?"

Linghu Qingmo quickly shook his head, looking as if he was afraid of being beaten by his mother for secretly wearing the clothes:

"This belongs to Master. If I take it and wear it, Master will know..."

"It's okay, I'll buy two identical ones tomorrow and put them here..."

"How could you buy such clothes for my master?!"

"..."

Xie Jinhuan opened his mouth and spread his hands:
"Why don't you wear it for now, and I'll take you to buy more tomorrow?"

"..."

Seeing that this lecherous man insisted on looking, Linghu Qingmo hesitated for a moment but said nothing. He grabbed his clothes and ran into the bathroom, locking the door behind him.
"Don't come in! Otherwise you'll have to shower for another hour or two, and it's already past midnight..."

Xie Jinhuan nearly bumped into the door. Seeing this, he could only shrug dejectedly and sit down alone at the small table against the wall. He picked up the ocarina, which he had been using as a decoration, and prepared to play "Phoenix Seeking its Mate" to entertain Momo. But as the saying goes, seeing an object evokes memories. As Xie Jinhuan sat there, he couldn't help but recall the scene when he first met Bing Tuozi. He was playing music here, and Bing Tuozi was blindfolded and hitting him, while A Piao danced in front of him to attract attention.

With a single thought, the elusive ghost wife quietly appeared in the living room.

She was no longer wearing a red dress with dragon patterns, but a light red gauze dress, with red stockings underneath, and a robe similar to Naigua's. The robe was grand and imposing, and above her long legs, clad in red-soled high heels, were outlines of the soldier's steamed buns...

"Oh?!"

Xie Jinhuan shuddered, and his whole body became more alert.

Immediately, Qingmo's concerned words rang out from inside the bathroom:

"What's wrong? Master is here?"

"Uh...no, the moon is so white tonight..."

"Huh? You're just... Don't peek!"

Wow…

……

Ye Hongshang had only gone into the store to buy some clothes, and when she came out, she found her son had run off with his girlfriend. She was still somewhat speechless when she strode up to him with her long legs, raising an eyebrow slightly:
"Didn't you want to show your older sister what you're capable of? Come on then!"

Xie Jinhuan had almost forgotten what she had gone out to do today. At this moment, she turned her head and glanced at the bathroom behind her:

"Now? This is probably... Should we go back and talk about it later?"

Ye Hongshang sat sideways on the small table, legs crossed, displaying her shapely hips and legs:
"I gave you the chance, but you couldn't make the flower bloom. So, obediently call me 'Mother,' and don't brag about how great you are anymore... Huh?"

Before she could finish speaking, Ye Hongshang discovered that this audacious young man had actually pulled her into his lap and was now using his extraordinary palm technique.
Ye Hongshang knew that Momo was taking a bath, and Xie Jinhuan didn't dare to do anything serious. How could she not resist such teasing?

At this moment, she sat with her legs crossed in her lap, her red-soled high heels dangling in the air, swaying gently without any ripples.

To prove that the ghost was just being stubborn, Xie Jinhuan was very focused on sensing the ghost's aura and condition while observing the embroidered peony flowers.

Unfortunately, the ghost's willpower was too strong. It was difficult to break through its defenses without jumping up and kicking. At this moment, the bra displayed a variety of colors, which gradually converged towards the center, but the speed was very slow and sometimes even retreated.

Ye Hongshang's eyes gleamed with smugness, and he looked down at her with mockery:
"Hmm~? Is that all you've got? Is that even enough, Greyhound?"

"I go!"

Xie Jinhuan immediately lost his temper and went into serious mode, holding nothing back...
-
Wow…

After washing away the dust of his journey, Linghu Qingmo changed into strange clothes that made people blush, and then, wearing his master's white nightgown, he came to the door.

Because her clothing was indeed rather revealing, Linghu Qingmo was a little nervous, secretly pondering:
Are you really going out?

If I go out dressed like this, that pervert will definitely want to look, and then...

He must be getting impatient...

……

Linghu Qingmo secretly pondered, thinking that Xie Jinhuan must be scratching his head and restless right now, secretly peeking into the bathroom.

Instead of opening the door directly, she quietly opened it a crack and peered into the living room.

At first glance, one could see a cold and aloof young man in a white robe sitting cross-legged beside a small table, his posture like that of playing a pipa. His right hand was low, palm facing up, middle and ring fingers together, constantly twitching like a small motor...

His brows were full of affection as he made a kissing motion in the air, his tongue moving as nimbly as a fish's...

? ?
Linghu Qingmo stared wide-eyed, bewildered, and said:

"Xie Jinhuan? What are you doing?"

"Uh……"

Xie Jinhuan suddenly woke up, only to find that the ghost, whose defenses were about to crumble, had vanished again. His eyes froze for a moment, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and changed to playing the air pipa.

"I'm bored, so I'm practicing a piece, hmm... Flight of the Bumblebee! This piece has no emotion, it's all technique, and playing it with four hands is all about speed..."

Linghu Qingmo wasn't stupid; she sensed that Xie Jinhuan was more likely fantasizing about how to bully her. Her face flushed as she said:
"Is that how you play music? You're definitely not up to anything. I... I'm going back..."

Xie Jinhuan was used to being tricked by ghosts, so he wasn't embarrassed at this moment. He got up and pulled Momo along:
"How can you go out dressed like that? I was just bored and had nothing to do. It's normal for a man to have a moment of madness in private. Come, come, sit down. You must be exhausted today. Let me massage your shoulders..."

Sitting in the man's lap, Linghu Qingmo was naturally worried that Xie Jinhuan would use the moves she had just devised against her, so she quickly closed her legs together.

"You're not allowed to do anything reckless, or I'll leave right now!"

Xie Jinhuan rubbed his shoulders and arms, his face gentle and kind:
“You still don’t trust me? When have I ever failed to do the things you forbid me to do? If I really did something reckless, you would have been a mother long ago, instead of remaining innocent until today.”

Linghu Qingmo had indeed done many bad things in the past. Xie Jinhuan was physically normal and naturally wanted to cross the line, but she didn't dare to live together before marriage, so she only touched her lightly.

Hearing this, Linghu Qingmo felt a little relieved. After being patted on the shoulders a few times, she half-heartedly leaned into his arms, raised her cheek, and gave him a kiss...
