Rebirth: Missing the Beloved

Mu Ling Shao shook his head. However, after contacting Du Mu Zhou, he could roughly guess that Du Mu Zhou's true identity should be the same as Mu Yu Feng's.

Du Mu Zhou felt a little uneasy. If Mu Ling Shao's true identity was found out by someone else, wouldn't it bring him a fatal danger?

"Then have you ever thought of investigating your true identity?"

Mu Ling Shao sighed as he took off the heavy phoenix crown on Du Mu Zhou's head. "I will remember everything you say, but it's not early yet. It's better to rest early."

Upon hearing his words, Du Mu Zhou knew that he was definitely afraid that he would feel tired.

To think that there would be someone so considerate towards him. Du Mu Zhou's heart was in turmoil, but this just happened to arouse her temper.

"Don't worry about me, let's go investigate and get to the bottom of this."

After he finished speaking, Du Mu Zhou pulled Mu Ling Shao's hand and was about to leave.

Mu Lingshao suddenly stopped and helped her to straighten her clothes, "Where are we going now?"

"To investigate, of course." Du Mu Zhou turned his head and saw his handsome face under the light. After a moment of shock, he continued, "Who do you think will know about this?"

Mu Lingshao held her hand and said, "Of course it's my Uncle Xiao. He is well-informed and would more or less know something."

The two of them tossed away their wedding gowns, ignoring the servant's persuasion and insisting that they find the second master of the Xiao family, who was resting in the guest room.

At that time, the light in the Second Master's room was still on. Mu Lingshao's men went up and knocked on the door.

Not long after, Xiao Qing Qing slowly opened the door.

He wore a robe decorated with silver threads, which was embroidered with a circle of auspicious clouds. This made his temperament look even more noble and gentle.

"What are you doing here on your wedding night?" He was surprised to see them.

Du Mu Zhou's face instantly turned red. She looked around and found that there were quite a few followers.

I really want to find a hole to hide in …

On the other hand, Mu Ling Shao did not look shy at all. He went straight to the point, "Second Uncle, do you know the origins of this jade pendant that I have been carrying since I was young?"

"Oh?" Xiao Qing Qing's interest was piqued, "Didn't the Grand Princess give you this gift when you were born?"

Mu Ling Shao shook his head, "I thought so too. However, I heard from the wooden boat that Mu Yufeng was wearing a similar jade pendant."

Du Mu Zhou could feel Xiao Qing's gentle eyes turning towards him as she nodded.

It was not convenient for the three of them to talk while standing outside, so Xiao Qing invited the two into the room.

The posturing in the room was the same as Xiao Qing Qing's, elegant and noble.

Du Mu Zhou then told Xiao Qing about what he had told Mu Ling Shao.

"This matter... I might want to fly a book and ask the old man. " His expression was somewhat serious.

Du Mu Zhou knew that the old man he spoke of was the true body of the Old Duke of Xiao.

However, the truth was hidden so deeply that even the powerful Xiao Qing Qing did not know about it.

Mu Ling Shao seemed to be fidgety, and his hand was actually covered in a layer of sweat.

"Alright, you guys can go back first. I'll tell you guys when I get some news." Xiao Qing Qing seemed to have seen through Mu Lingshao's anxiousness, "A second of spring snack is worth a thousand gold."

Mu Ling Shao laughed softly, "Then, thank you second uncle for your help."

Du Mu Zhou didn't realize that the two were playing dumb, but after Mu Ling Shao finished speaking, he immediately led her away.

"Let's not think about that for now. Second Uncle's business is just as safe."

Du Mu Zhou looked up and saw that the person walking in front of her had a smile plastered on his face, looking especially charming in the light of the bright red lanterns.

Weird, she is usually a sunny person, why is she acting like this today … Where's the seduction?

Du Mu Zhou's little heart thumped loudly.

However, Mu Lingshao did not realize how enticing his appearance was. He continued to lead Du Mu Zhou towards his new room.

Du Mu Zhou was a little afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself, so he walked in front of Mu Ling Shao. Just as he was about to enter the room, he suddenly looked behind him.

The light of the wedding lantern just so happened to shine on her face, blurring her appearance. However, the red lips on her pointed chin seemed particularly alluring.

Mu Lingshao sucked in a breath of cold air, "Mu Zhou, do you know how beautiful you are right now?"

Du Mu Zhou took a few steps back in surprise. She had never seen Mu Ling Shao like this before, nor had she ever heard such words from his mouth.

Could it be that all married men were like this?

"No, I don't know." She actually spoke with a bit of a knot in her throat.

At this moment, Mu Ling Shao looked more like a wild beast that had just come out of its cage. It seemed that it had suppressed itself for a long time and was about to eat Du Mu Zhou.

Du Mu Zhou took a few more steps back before he was caught by Mu Ling Shao.

She blushed, feeling the warmth of her body rise, but was ashamed to obey her instincts.

"Can you …" "Ugh …"

Just as Du Mu Zhou was about to speak, Mu Lingshao stopped him.

She could feel that his body temperature was no lower than hers.

This kiss was very gentle, like touching a cloud on the horizon.

Mu Lingshao could not help it as he slowly lowered his hand and placed it on Du Mu Zhou's waist.

Du Mu Zhou felt the hand at his waist that was burning hot, and the cold feeling coming from his front, which caused him to instantly wake up.

She struggled to push away the man in front of her.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not ready yet." Du Mu Zhou said.

Mu Ling Shao withdrew his hand and gave a slight smile.

He let her go.

Mu Lingshao's voice was even a little apologetic, "I was in the wrong with today's matter as well. I did not control myself well. I should have asked you in advance if you agreed."

Du Mu Zhou felt that Mu Ling Shao had suddenly moved closer to him, and thought that he was going to go back on his word. He knew that he was only beside Du Mu Zhou's ear and said with a hoarse voice, "Then I'll wait for you to get ready."

Du Mu Zhou hurriedly put on his clothes and buckled up several buttons.

Mu Ling Shao couldn't help but laugh as he watched her like she was a wolf.

He patted Du Mu Zhou's head and said, "I just didn't control myself well. If you don't agree, I definitely won't do anything to you."

Hearing Mu Lingshao's words, Du Mu Zhou's face reddened a little. The two of them were already husband and wife, and yet she was still so shy. It was unavoidable for her to be a little inappropriate.

However, once he thought about the matter of being official with Mu Ling and Shao Xing, Du Mu Zhou still couldn't let it go ….

"No matter what, I have to thank you. Give me time to face it." Du Mu Zhou said in a low voice.

"Alright." Mu Lingshao hugged his pillow with the mandarin duck embroidered on it, "Today, I'll go to my study and sleep for the night."
