Moreover, because he was an orphan and was abandoned by his parents, Mo Ling did not have a good impression of his parents. As for the vicious Empress who wanted to kill Jiujiu, his impression of her was extremely bad.
Mo Ling looked at Jiujiu's face, which had lost all the baby fat, but still looked slightly young compared to his own. He sighed softly in his heart.
No matter what, Jiujiu was still a child, and the Empress was her mother. Mo Ling would definitely not be cruel enough to kill the Empress. Therefore, it was better to leave the matter of harming the Empress to himself.
At night, Mo Ling, who usually went to bed early after talking to Jiujiu, suddenly got up in the middle of the night and quickly rushed to the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful.
The moment Mo Ling got up, Jiujiu also got up from the dragon bed.
She quickly caught up with Mo Ling without alerting Heye and Little Mozi.
Mo Ling's martial arts were excellent, but Jiujiu, who had been diligent ever since he came here, was not bad either. The two of them were basically neck and neck.
Because Mo Ling wanted to kill the Empress, he was chased by Jiujiu for a long time before he realized that there was someone behind him.
Because he did not know where Jiujiu came from, in order not to alert the Empress, Mo Ling directly changed his direction and rushed out of the palace.
Jiujiu quickly followed.
Mo Ling only stopped when he reached the outskirts.
Mo Ling stopped and turned to look at Jiujiu who was chasing after him. A trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
He always knew that Jiujiu practiced martial arts, but he did not know that Jiujiu's martial arts were so good. In just half a year, she was already on par with him.
If he did not use a black cloth to cover his face, he would have already hugged Jiujiu.
Mo Ling wanted to resist the urge to pull Jiujiu into his arms. After moving his fingers, he lowered his eyes and deliberately lowered his voice, "Your Excellency, why are you chasing me?"
"Would you believe me if I said that I like you?" Jiujiu's eyes emitted a charming light in the dark night, and the corners of her mouth curled up to reveal a faint smile.
Mo Ling knew that Jiujiu was most likely just saying it casually, but for some reason, after hearing Jiujiu's words, Mo Ling's heart raced uncontrollably.
Mo Ling's drooping fingers could not help but twitch. He suppressed the urge to pull Jiujiu into his arms and turned his head away. "Brother, you must be joking."
"I'm not joking." Jiujiu walked towards Mo Ling. As she walked, she took out a jade pendant from her bosom. She lifted the jade pendant and said, "I already knew it was you, Master."
When he heard Jiujiu's first sentence, Mo Ling was not very sure if Jiujiu had recognized him. However, after hearing the words "Master", Mo Ling's body stiffened. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiujiu in shock. He asked in confusion, "You, how did you recognize me?"
Jiujiu walked to Mo Ling's side and raised her hand to hug Mo Ling's waist. She pressed her head against Mo Ling's chest and rubbed it. Then, she raised her head to look into Mo Ling's eyes and said with a wronged expression, "Master, you have a fragrance on you. I recognized you the moment you entered the palace."
Mo Ling may not have felt it himself, but Jiujiu had always been able to smell it. Mo Ling had a cold fragrance on his body. When his thoughts fluctuated, the cold fragrance was exceptionally strong.
Furthermore, Mo Ling's body still had the soul fragments that scattered that day. If she could not recognize Mo Ling, Jiujiu felt that she could just atone for her sins with her death.
Mo Ling had thought about Jiujiu's possible answer, but he did not expect it to be because of the fragrance on his body.
Mo Ling raised his hand and rubbed it.

He rubbed Jiujiu's little head and looked at Jiujiu's small mouth that was pouting because of being wronged. After a long sigh, he said softly, "I thought you did not want to see me."
"No." Jiujiu bit her lips and shook her head. Her eyes changed from being wronged to being timid.
"If it was not for you, I am afraid that I would have become my mother's puppet. You are my second parent. How could I not want to see you?"
"But I have other thoughts about you."
Mo Ling raised his hand and rubbed Jiujiu's head. He said softly, "I like you."
"I also like you, Master." Jiujiu buried her little head in Mo Ling's chest. After rubbing it hard, she said softly, "But I lied to you, Master."
When she thought about how she did not recognize Mo Ling, Jiujiu's face began to heat up.
She was really angry that Mo Ling's master had schemed against her. She was also angry that she did not recognize Mo Ling as her own man because she did not have the soul fragments. Fortunately, they were together in the end.
However, in order to preserve her beautiful image, Jiujiu was still immoral to lie to Mo Ling.
"Master, you like men, but I am a woman. Master, will you dislike me because I am a woman and not like me anymore?"
"So you said you did not like me at that time?"
"I said it out of anger. I was afraid that if I said I liked you, you would not like me anymore if you found out that I am a woman."
"So those words were all lies?"
"Yes." Jiujiu raised her little head. She looked into Mo Ling's eyes and nodded. Then, she pursed her lips and said softly, "Master, will you dislike me because I am a woman?"
When Mo Ling heard Jiujiu's words, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He did not expect that after Jiujiu found out that he liked her, there would be such a misunderstanding.
Therefore, Jiujiu distanced herself from him and Jiujiu's words were not because she did not like him. Instead, it was because she found out that he liked a man. She did not want him to find out that she was a woman and distanced herself from him.
Mo Ling was happy and sad at the same time.
He was happy that Jiujiu liked him, just like him. However, he was sad that he did not make things clear to Jiujiu earlier. As a result, the two of them missed out on such a long time. When he thought about how conflicted he had been for the past six months and saw Jiujiu obediently leaning into his arms, Mo Ling felt both sad and happy at the same time.
Mo Ling raised his hand and rubbed Jiujiu's head. He looked into Jiujiu's eyes and said softly, "I like you as a person. It has nothing to do with gender."
Jiujiu naturally knew what Mo Ling was thinking. However, in order to prevent herself from recognizing Mo Ling, Jiujiu could only say that.
Mo Ling looked at Jiujiu's little face. He pursed his lips and smiled. He raised his hand and pulled Jiujiu into his arms.
How should he describe this feeling? It was probably the feeling of suddenly changing from winter to summer.
It was night time, but Mo Ling had the illusion that he was in a garden full of flowers. Even though he could not face the sea, he could still feel the warmth of spring and the flowers blooming.
When Mo Ling went out, it was already midnight. The two of them went all the way from the palace to the suburbs. No matter how much they wanted to be lovey-dovey, there was no time.
After Mo Ling and Jiujiu hugged for a while, Mo Ling directly carried Jiujiu and ran into the palace.
Because he cared about Jiujiu, Mo Ling did not wait for Jiujiu's consent and directly carried Jiujiu into the palace.
