Chapter 1504: I Promise You

She was hanging her petite head, looking especially dejected.
Crown Prince Mo’s heart squeezed, and he hastily walked over to pick up that little one from the stone stool and place her into his arms. “What’s wrong?”
It was only when the little fellow looked up that he noticed her moist eyes. She was evidently on the verge of tears.
Crown Prince Mo immediately panicked, and he quickly hugged her while inquiring gently, “Qiaoqiao, what’s wrong? Who bullied our Qiaoqiao? Quickly tell me! I’ll help you beat him up!”
“You guys.” Qiao Mu pulled her lips into a thin line as she did her utmost to hold back the moistness in her eyes.
You’re not allowed to cry, not allowed to cry!
Only the weak cried this easily!
She was someone who was going to walk the path of the strong. How could she be toppled by such a tiny setback!
“Us?” Mo Lian stole a furtive glance at the little treant ducking behind the stone stool.
The coldness in Mo Lian’s eyes promptly made the little treant shiver from the chill. He sneakily slipped into a crack on the stone stool and wished for nothing more than to hide his entire body.
Waah—it was all his fault for being a blabbermouth!
Qiao Mu suddenly encircled Mo Lian’s neck with her small arms and nuzzled his neck with her head. She said pitifully, “I’ll go together with you, together with you.”
“Go where?” Our dear Mo Lian truly was clueless about what the little fellow was harping on.
“Go together with you to the Punishment Tower.”
Mo Lian’s icy eyes immediately frosted over when he heard the words “Punishment Tower.” He abruptly looked at the little treant who was hiding in a crack in the stone stool.
Besides him, who else would mention the words “Punishment Tower” in front of the little fellow?
“I’ll tackle that bullsh*t 17-level tower together with you. Let’s go bring Rotten Peach Blossom back!” Qiao Mu nuzzled his neck back and forth with her petite skull.
Yet Mo Lian’s heart was melting at her adorable gesture, and he picked her up into a princess carry before sitting onto that stone stool just like that.
“You cannot go, Qiaoqiao.”
“Why?” Qiao Mu widened her eyes before drooping her petite head again and murmuring, “I know, it’s that I’m too weak.”
“It’s not that. How could my Qiaoqiao be too weak.” Mo Lian cupped her head as he rocked her petite body. “Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao. You’re still little. You cannot go to that place.”
“Give me half a year. No! Five months! I promise you, I will definitely come find you in Shuntian Prefecture, okay?”
Qiao Mu shook her petite head like a rattle-drum as she gripped his collar.
This person, this annoying man.
She was not aware of it when he had been sticking to her all day long, but now when she learned that he was going to leave her, her heart was unimaginably flustered.
“Big liar!” Qiao Mu gazed at him woefully as she sputtered, “Qiuqiu said that you will only come out after getting locked up in the Punishment Tower for a hundred years! Just like Rotten Peach Blossom! Rotten Peach Blossom can’t come out! You can’t come out either! You guys both can’t come out!”
“Qiuqiu!!” Mo Lian shouted angrily.
Qiuqiu immediately covered his nonexistent ears with two branches!
/Wuwuwu… Qiuqiu is wrong, Qiuqiu is a blabbermouth, Qiuqiu won’t ever speak carelessly again!/
