Chapter 230 No way
Chapter 230 No way
Qin Hao has been able to persevere until now because he has unfinished business in his heart, and it is this belief that has kept him going. Now that he has come to her residence, she naturally cannot ignore him.
Mo Xuan is the son of the Demon King, so he should be able to handle this kind of thing.
"Oh? What is it?" Mo Xuan asked, somewhat curious.
Lu Jinyan then told him about Qin Hao's situation. After listening, Mo Xuan's expression turned serious: "Don't worry, Yan'er, leave this matter to me. I will definitely give him justice!"
Although Mo Xuan did not want to be the Demon King, he had always hated evil since childhood. He was the son of the Demon King, and every demon in Ruoshui City was his mother's child.
He knew how much his mother and father had sacrificed for Ruoshui City over the years, and naturally he wouldn't let these things go unattended.
"Your words are enough. If Qin Hao knew, he would surely be very happy." Lu Jinyan smiled and took Mo Xuan's hand as they continued walking forward.
"This is Ruohan's courtyard, where Ruohan and Qingshan live. This is my courtyard, and this is Chuchu's, where Liu Qing lives with her. Both courtyards are empty and about the same size, just decorated differently. Take a look and choose whichever you like!"
Mo Xuan frowned as he looked at the courtyard in front of him. He didn't like any of them, not because they were too small to compare with his mansion, but because they were too far away from Lu Jinyan. Unfortunately, the courtyards closest to Lu Jinyan were chosen by Chu Chu and Ruo Han respectively.
He naturally knew about the relationship between Chu Chu and Lu Jinyan, so he couldn't ask Chu Chu to switch places with him. He could accept Ruohan, but he knew without a doubt that Ruohan wouldn't agree. Moreover, he didn't want Lu Jinyan to think that he was too domineering, taking someone else's courtyard as soon as he arrived.
So he chose the one that was relatively closer between the two courtyards: "This one then!"
After Mo Xuan finished speaking, Chu Li waved his hand, and the people behind him carried the things into the courtyard in an orderly manner, and then began to tidy up and arrange things skillfully.
Although no one lived in the courtyard, it was still quite clean and didn't require much cleaning. Mo Xuan took Lu Jinyan's hand and led her to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard.
Looking at the busy group of people, Lu Jinyan sighed inwardly, "Sure enough, the children of wealthy families are so lucky! They don't have to do anything themselves!"
"Xuanxuan, should these people stay or...?" If they stay, she will have to ask Chu Chu to arrange a place for them to stay; if they don't stay, she won't interfere.
"They are all Chu Li's men, each with top-notch skills and a wide range of abilities. I'd like them to stay and be responsible for the security of the house. What do you think, Yan'er?" Mo Xuan brought twelve people with him this time, both men and women, all trusted confidants, and all quite skilled in martial arts. Although he felt that with him living here, no one would dare to cause trouble, one should always be cautious.
Lu Jinyan's residence was not very safe without guards, which is why he brought them here.
"No problem, Liu Xu, go find Chu Chu and ask her to arrange a room." Lu Jinyan instructed Liu Xu behind her.
"Yes, Miss!" Liu Xu accepted the order and left.
"Eight of these people are men, so I'll entrust them to Chu Li to manage and arrange their affairs, including security within the residence. The remaining four are women, who can help with cleaning and tidying up the residence. They were also responsible for cleaning and tidying up in my residence before, so Yan'er can assign them tasks as she sees fit."
Mo Xuan carefully gave Lu Jinyan a brief introduction to the twelve people he had brought.
Lu Jinyan thought about it and realized that with so many more people in the family, it would be a bit much for the Taozhi and Taoye sisters to cook for so many people. So she decided to have Tangyuan go to the kitchen and cook with Taozhi and Taoye.
Tangyuan was timid, and with so many people in the house, she felt uncomfortable in the front. She felt more at ease in the kitchen, where there were fewer people. Shitou and Linzi took turns being in charge of the gatehouse, so it wasn't too tiring. As for cleaning, they followed Moxuan's instructions and had the four people he brought take care of it.
Their own courtyards are managed by their own family members, so they only need to clean the front hall every two days, which isn't too tiring. Yuan Yi and Du Che can help occasionally, as they are responsible for the household groceries. They can also help with other things when they have free time.
This made everyone feel much more relaxed. Lu Jinyan shared her thoughts with Mo Xuan, who agreed. However, he suddenly remembered something and frowned as he asked, "Yan'er just introduced each courtyard. What about Ling Yuan? Where does he live?"
He then realized that Lu Jinyan seemed to have never mentioned where Lingyuan lived.
"Oh, you mean Lingyuan? He lives in my courtyard. Lingyuan is timid and has no demonic power. He also has no one to take care of him, so I left him in my courtyard. Liuxu helps look after him on weekdays." In addition, he is her target for romance, so being close to him makes it easier to win him over. Of course, Lu Jinyan didn't say the last sentence.
"What? He actually lives in your courtyard? How can this be? What is his status? If we're talking about living in the same courtyard as you, it should be Ruohan, not me. He's just a demon slave, what right does he have?" Mo Xuan was furious when he heard that Ling Yuan was living in Lu Jinyan's courtyard.
He never expected that Ruohan only had her own courtyard, while Lingyuan was able to move into Lu Jinyan's courtyard.
"Why are you so agitated? Lingyuan is timid, and he has suffered a lot before. It is only right that we take care of him. Besides, he is just living in my courtyard, not in my room."
Lu Jinyan found it somewhat amusing; was Mo Xuan jealous?
"That won't work either. Isn't there another courtyard here? I'll have Chu Li tidy it up and let him move in. I'll live next to him, so I'll be perfectly safe. Besides, given his status, how could he possibly live with Yan'er?"
Even if someone were to stay, it would have to be either him or Ruohan; it wouldn't be Lingyuan's turn!
"Xuanxuan!" Lu Jinyan said helplessly.
“Yan’er, I can agree to anything else. But not this. You’re not married yet, and there’s already a man living in the courtyard. What will outsiders think? Leave this to me, Yan’er, don’t worry about it.”
Mo Xuan originally didn't want to bring this up, but given the current situation, he had no choice but to. Only by establishing a formal title could he rightfully manage the inner quarters.
"Xuanxuan, are you jealous?" Lu Jinyan looked at Mo Xuan's expression and was sure it was true.
"Jealous? Why would I be jealous? I'm doing this for your reputation. He has no official status now, and he's just living in the same courtyard as you. It's not good for either of them if word gets out!"
Although Mo Xuan didn't know what jealousy was, he could guess the general idea from Lu Jinyan's expression.
