Chapter 508 - The Present, a Precious Hibiscus Jade Ring



Chapter 508 The Present, a Precious Hibiscus Jade Ring

At that time, the man was very ill and his face was pale, but as Mo Xuetong touched his skin while feeling his veins, she found that his flesh under the skin was taut and elastic. It definitely didn’t belong to a long-sick person who had been ill in bed for years. Besides, the reason he said was strange as well. How could a sick person leave his servant just to get to the Puguang Temple earlier when he was clear that he was in poor health?

All these indicated that there was a problem with Xiang Xieyue.

Mo Xuetong herself was in constant trouble, and did not want to interact with such a suspicious person too much, so when Xiang Xieyue called her Third Young Miss Mo, she did not explain it. Although she was smiling all the time, her expression looked faint, with slight vigilance in her eyes.

“Third Young Miss Mo, I didn’t have time to thank you at that time before you went down the mountain. And during this period of time, I’m in bad health, and have something to deal with, so I have no time to go to the Mo Manor and thank you. It happened that I met you here. Please accept my gratitude.” Xiang Xieyue’s eyes fell on Mo Xuetong’s beautiful face, his lips curving into a gentle smile. Then he took an exquisite brocade box from his pocket and pushed it to Mo Xuetong with a sincere look on his face.

“You’re too polite, Young Master Xiang. It was just a little effort. It’s not worth mentioning.” Mo Xuetong reached out and pushed the box back. She really didn’t think it was a big deal. In such bad weather, no matter what reason Xiang Xieyue was for, everyone would help him when he ran into their carriage.

“Third Miss, it is just a little token to show my gratitude to you.” Xiang Xieyue didn’t push anymore. He stood up, and gave a deep bow to Mo Xuetong.

He was so respectful that Mo Xuetong couldn’t sit down anymore. She had to stand up and also gave him a bow.

“Third Miss, I still have something to do, so I’m leaving first. I believe we will meet again.” Xiang Xieyue finished the salute and smiled slightly. Before Mo Xuetong could say something more, he took the manservant and went down through one of the stairs.

“Young Master Xiang...” Mo Xuetong didn’t expect him to be so straightforward that he left as soon as he gave her the present. However, Mo Xuetong couldn’t call out loudly at this time, because it was rude.

“My Lady, what’s wrong?” Mo Lan just passed the sick man. She looked back at him, a little confused. But then she heard Mo Xuetong’s words, wondering what happened, and hurried to ask. She was really worried about Mo Xuetong. After seeing several kinds of materials, and casually picked one, she returned.

Mo Xuetong sighed and sat down again, pointing to Xiang Xieyue who was going out and asked helplessly, “That person, did you see him?” This man looked weak and sick, but he was very straightforward. After putting the present on the table, he left. If she ran after him at this time, it would only make her hypocritical.

“My Lady, the man appeared sick, and looked familiar when I passed him.” Mo Lan thought for a moment. When Xiang Xieyue ran into Mo Xuetong’s carriage, his face was pale and he looked as if he was dying. At this time, although he still looked sick, at least he was not pale as a dead person. Therefore, Mo Lan didn’t recognize him in the first place.

“That’s the one who ran into our carriage in the Puguang Temple.” Mo Xuetong pointed to the brocade box on the table and said to Mo Lan, “Just then he dropped this, and said it was a gift to express his gratitude to me. Then he left. What a weird man.”

“My Lady, it’s okay. Since he wanted to thank you, I’ll accept it for you. This person looks straightforward. Since it’s just a thank-you gift, it’s fine.” Mo Lan pondered for a moment and then was relieved. She thought it was normal now that the person didn’t stay to entangle Mo Xuetong.

That day, Mo Xuetong really saved him. It was reasonable to express his gratitude to her when they met on the street.

Bringing the brocade box on the table and opening it, Mo Lan smiled and said, “My Lady, let me see what that Young Master’s present is. Maybe it is a rare treasure that even you have never seen.”

She was making fun of Mo Xuetong. Mo Xuetong had seen kinds of rare treasures. In their manor, King Xuan loved his wife so much that he often sent some rare things to her, and her small warehouse was almost full.

There were also rewards from the palace from time to time. The rare treasures were really common to her.

Mo Xuetong glared at the sly girl, but also looked at it curiously. Xiang Xieyue didn’t look like a normal person, so she wondered what gift he sent to her.

The moment the brocade box was opened, Mo Xuetong was shocked. There was a ring of pink jade in the box. Pink jade was also known as hibiscus jade. It was a kind of extremely rare jade. Generally, it was very small. The ring was small, but the lines were clearly symmetrical. It was obviously cut from a huge piece of pink jade. Such a ring was precious.

People who owned such a ring were by no means ordinary people!

Because this kind of hibiscus jade was scarce, it was occupied by the royal family or the big family as soon as it was discovered. Even if it kept well, it was impossible to have such a large piece of jade to make into a ring. On a strange book left by Luo Xia, there was a record of this kind of hibiscus jade, only saying that this kind of jade was produced in the Southern Barbarian Lands, and even the royal family of the Qin Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom didn’t own it.

Was this really hibiscus jade?

Mo Xuetong reached out, took the jade ring, and shone it against the sun. The pink looked like peach blossoms, coming through the jade. As she turned the ring, there seemed to be pieces of peach blossoms, which looked wonderful. Immediately, Mo Xuetong frowned. It turned out that Xiang Xieyue was a man from the Southern Barbarian Lands.

Feng Yuran was having a headache for the Crown Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands now. She heard that he had not yet found him.

As their Crown Prince was missing, there must be a handful of people from the Southern Barbarian Lands. Who was Xiang Xieyue? She frowned slightly. Was the Southern Barbarian Lands going to take a big move? It was unusual for Xiang Xieyue to take out the jade.

“My Lady, look, there seems to have words.” Mo Lan pointed to a corner on the jade ring and said to Mo Xuetong.

Collecting her thoughts, Mo Xuetong glanced at it, finding some words carved on the ring. Unfortunately, they were not the words of the Qin Kingdom, so Mo Xuetong did not understand them. She touched it. The work was very delicate. Although such a thing was only a ring, it could be taken as a treasure.

Who the hell was Xiang Xieyue? His action was so weird, and so was that jade ring, which was carved with characters. It was more like a token. Was he really just thanking her for saving his life? It seemed that she had to think about it a lot.

Mo Xuetong didn’t stay long in the clothing store. Wearing a veil and surrounded by several maidservants, she got on the carriage. The carriage slowly left the store door.

Upstairs opposite, Xiang Xieyue smiled and watched Mo Xuetong’s carriage leave. He gently tapped on the table. The smart manservant came over and poured a cup of tea for him again, carefully asking, “Young Master, why did you give that jade ring to Third Young Miss Mo?”

Everyone around Xiang Xieyue knew what the jade ring meant. Even if he wanted to express his gratitude to her for saving his life, it was not appropriate to send that jade ring.

Xiang Xieyue glanced coldly at the manservant. Although he was sick and weak, his glance held sharp sternness, which made the manservant lower his head for no reason. “What’s wrong with Third Young Miss Mo?”

Although the manservant was afraid, out of loyalty, he still went on and persuaded while trembling with fear, “Third Young Miss Mo is a beautiful lady, you can be a good couple, but her status is a bit low, you...”

Mo Huawen’s identity, the lord mayor was really nothing in front of the real powerful family.

“So what?” Xiang Xieyue smiled coldly, his sick-looking face looking a little bit severe. “My business is not up to those people. They want me to do whatever they want? How can it be so easy?”

After he finished speaking, he gave a flick of his sleeve, stood up, and walked away.

Seeing his master was really angry, the manservant dare not say anything more. He knew that the master had never been a man who could be pushed around. Those people began to calculate him long ago. They were always trying to have women around him. This time they made some excuse to let him come to the Qin Kingdom, but they did not know that they had fallen into his trap again.

It was just that the master’s plan was too dangerous. If it weren’t for Third Young Miss Mo at that time, Xiang Xieyue might really have been dead.

Thinking of this, the manservant still thought Third Young Miss Mo was a good person. Since the master thought this, what could he, a servant, say? He only hoped that the master could think it clearly. Sometimes it was not necessary to do that in return for kindness. This was not urgent, and it would not be too late for the master to think clearly after a while.

Although there was something in Mo Xuetong’s heart, she knew it was not in a hurry. She took Mo Lan and the other maidservants to continue going shopping. They bought some necessary supplies for the manor. Soon, they arrived at the Fragrance House. It was almost noon, and Feng Yuran was not home now, so they simply got out of the carriage and prepared to have lunch here.

Mo Lan and Mo Yu surrounded Mo Xuetong while they went upstairs. Mo Ye went to book a private room first. Although she knew this restaurant had something to do with Feng Yuran, Mo Xuetong was unwilling to act ostentatiously, so she did not ask Mo Ye to report her name. After all, she rarely came out and was not for secret things.

An attentive waiter led them to the second floor. As soon as they reached the staircase, and hadn’t gotten up, they saw a group of people rushing from behind. A few maidservants pushed the people at the edge of the stairs away and cried, “Get out of the way.”

Mo Lan quickly got in front of Mo Xuetong. Mo Xuetong leaned aside, avoiding those who rushed from behind.

Who were these people? They were so arrogant!

Mo Xuetong and her servants dodged these people, but the people ahead of them were not so lucky. The first group was also female guests, one woman with a veil, surrounded by three maidservants. They happened to go down, and just collided with the maidservants rushing up.

As Mo Xuetong had just walked slowly in the head, those people who went down did not care. Now that Mo Xuetong had walked to the side, and the people rushed up, those people had no time to avoid them. The first two maidservants bumped into the rushing ones, and the one on the upper steps shook and almost fell.

The one that rushed up from below leaned and went to the side.

“Miss, please be careful.” The waiter who led the way in front of Mo Xuetong was now standing aside, so he reached over to help her.

The shocked maidservant stopped and steadied herself. As she found that a young man in his twenties was supporting her, she became angry and red-faced. As soon as she stood firmly, she turned back and gave the waiter a loud slap, which attracted all the eyes.

“You’re courting death. Don’t touch me with your dirty hands.”

The waiter didn’t expect there was such an unreasonable, spicy woman. He stepped back, covering his face and confused because of the slap.
