Chapter 427: Lord Qu Arrives (1)
Ji Xiaomu was just about to find Bai Yichen to finalize the matter of the clothing store, but before she had time to find him, Bai Yichen came to her first.
"I was just about to come look for you! And here you are." Ji Xiaomu opened the door and saw Bai Yichen who was about to knock on the door, and couldn't help but smile.
"It's rare that you have something to ask me? What is it?" Bai Yichen asked curiously.
"I want to open a clothing store. Help me find a store." Ji Xiaomu told Bai Yichen about the matter. Bai Yichen looked at Ji Xiaomu with a complicated look.
"You are really special." Bai Yichen sighed, "If only I had met you earlier than Fang Chen."
"It's not too late for you to meet me now!" Ji Xiaomu said with a smile, looking at Bai Yichen.
Bai Yichen saw the frankness in Ji Xiaomu's eyes and knew that she regarded him as a friend, so he smiled slightly. "What a pity, it would be better if you had a younger sister."
"That's a nice thought!" Mother Ji rolled her eyes at Bai Yichen, and Bai Yichen laughed.
"I'm in such good condition, but you don't consider me even though you have a sister?" Bai Yichen was sad.
"Okay, stop being naughty. You wouldn't come to me if there was nothing wrong. Tell me! What's the matter?" Ji Xiaomu asked with a smile.
"Don't mention it, it's urgent!" Bai Yichen put away his smile, "Your story has reached the city lord, he wants to see you."
"City Lord? Qu Shishi's father?" Ji Xiaowu was stunned. She and Fang Chen were just about to go find him, but he came first.
"Yes. It's him." Bai Yichen looked at Ji Xiaomu and found that she was not nervous at all. "Aren't you worried?"
"What are you worried about?" Ji Xiaomu looked puzzled. Why should she be worried?
"Qu Shishi is here, aren't you afraid that he will find out?" Bai Yichen asked.
"If he found out, he found out. It's not me who locked her up here. She's his daughter. If she doesn't want to go home, how can he blame me?" Ji Xiaowu blinked. "Besides, isn't she safer here with me?"
"Rather than saying that he discovered Qu Shishi, I'm more worried about how Qu Shishi would react when she saw him." Ji Xiaomu was more worried about Qu Shishi.
"Hahahaha." Bai Yichen laughed.
"Okay! Since you are not worried, I will not let anyone stop him?" Bai Yichen asked, "He found me and asked me to take him to see you. He is in town now."
"Then let him come!" Ji Xiaomu said with a smile, "I'll tell Qu Shishi later whether she wants to see her father or not. It's up to her to decide."
"Okay." Bai Yichen nodded, "Then I'll go back and bring him here now."
"Okay." Ji Xiaowu nodded, watched Bai Yichen get on the carriage and leave, then turned and walked towards the training ground.
When Ji Xiaomu arrived at the training ground, before she even entered, she heard uniform cheers that shook her body and mind.
When the soldiers at the door saw Ji Xiaomu, someone immediately went to inform Fang Chen and did not stop Ji Xiaomu. Ji Xiaomu thanked them and walked in. She saw the soldiers training hard under the scorching sun, obeying orders, and every movement was as smooth as using their arms and hands, and every step was loud and powerful.
Ji Xiaowu could no longer recognize the soldiers in front of her who were training. They were the young boys back then. They have already transformed from cocoons into butterflies.
"Auntie, are you here to see me?" Fang Chen greeted Auntie Ji happily. Auntie Ji had ignored him for several days.
"No." Ji Xiaomu said lightly. Fang Chen lowered his head disappointedly and carefully held Ji Xiaomu's hand. Seeing that Ji Xiaomu did not refuse, he was happy.
