Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family
Chapter 171 Sending Flowers
As soon as Cheng Mo squeezed into the crowd, his eyes were immediately attracted by Hen Yi and Xiong Wu standing in the middle. Seeing how close these two were, he was afraid that he would get good news from them soon.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mo couldn't help but laugh happily, but at this moment, he seemed to suddenly remember something important, turned around abruptly, and struggled to squeeze out of the crowd again.
This scene made Duoduo think - could it be that the city lord found out that the person he liked was with someone else, so he turned away heartbroken?
Duoduo was extremely anxious. He patted Dahei's body anxiously and shouted, "Dahei! Let's go find the city lord quickly!" Dahei looked confused and had no idea what was going on, but Duoduo still hurriedly pulled him out.
After a difficult search, Duoduo finally found Cheng Mo. At this time, Cheng Mo was standing in front of a stall, talking to an orc wearing a sheep-head mask.
Duoduo took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to step forward, and said cautiously: "City... City Lord!"
Cheng Mo heard the voice, turned around in confusion, looked at Duoduo and asked: "Huh? It's Duoduo, what's wrong?"
Duoduo scratched his head and stammered, "Well... well... City Lord, don't be sad... Didn't the book say that there are so many weeds in the world, we can't like just one? No, no! It should be 'You can't hang yourself on a tree?' It doesn't seem to be this sentence..."
Duoduo felt very embarrassed and didn't know how to comfort Cheng Mo. As he spoke, he secretly observed Cheng Mo's reaction and prayed in his heart that he didn't say the wrong thing.
Cheng Mo couldn't help laughing after hearing what Duoduo said. He shook his head and gently corrected her, "You need to study your cultural subjects more. The original words should be 'There are many beautiful women in the world, why do you have to love only one flower'..."
As soon as Cheng Mo finished speaking, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with this sentence. He looked at Duoduo's little expression and immediately understood.
"Hey! No! What do you mean by that? Who am I in love with?" Cheng Mo looked at Duoduo in front of him with anger and amusement, who was still trying to comfort him in every possible way.
"Oh! No, I... I was just sighing! Hahaha!" Duoduo smiled awkwardly, his laughter sounded a little unnatural, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to hide something.
"You bastard!" Cheng Mo knocked on Duoduo's forehead unhappily, with a hint of anger in his tone.
Duoduo shrank his neck and smiled, looking a little embarrassed. His eyes fell on the sheep-head masked orc beside Cheng Mo and asked curiously, "City Lord, who is this?"
Cheng Mo turned his head and looked at the orc with a cold gaze. He replied calmly, "Just a stranger."
Hearing this answer, the orc with the goat-head mask froze slightly. He was silent for a while before he said coldly: "My name is... White Tiger..."
Cheng Mo didn't pay attention to the other party's self-introduction. His attention was completely focused on Duoduo. He looked at Duoduo and asked, "How long are you going to play here?"
Duoduo reached out and gently stroked her bulging belly, frowned, and answered carefully: "Well... let's play for a while. I always feel so tired after having a baby! In fact, I want to play until dawn!"
Cheng Mo sighed and said, "Don't think about it! You are not alone now. For the sake of the baby, take care of your rest. You still have to go to work tomorrow, so I will go back first. You should also go home early and don't stay outside for too long. Try to avoid crowded places and always pay attention to your own safety."
"Yes!" Duoduo stood up straight and bowed respectfully. This action made Cheng Mo laugh again, and the depression of being disturbed by a stranger also dissipated.
Cheng Mo smiled and turned to leave. Seeing this, Baihu hesitated for a moment and prepared to follow him and leave.
However, Duoduo stopped him and said, "Wait!"
Duoduo stared at Baihu with a scrutinizing gaze and asked curiously: "What do you want to do? And why are you wearing that sheep head mask?"
Baihu did not give much explanation, but just said coldly: "This is none of your business!" After that, he turned around and left without any reluctance.
Duoduo stood there, staring blankly at Baihu's receding figure, his heart filled with doubts and puzzlement. He turned around, looked at Dahei beside him and asked, "He just left like that? Could he be the city lord's sweetheart? But the city lord clearly said he was a stranger!"
Dahei carefully guarded Duoduo and comforted him: "I'm not sure, but he shouldn't dare to do bad things easily in the city. After all, there are security guards patrolling here!"
After listening to this, Duoduo nodded in agreement: "Yeah, that's true!" Then, he put aside all distractions, held Dahei's hand tightly, and once again excitedly rushed into the crowded crowd to play and have fun.

The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds onto the street, which still had the warmth of yesterday's festival. As soon as Cheng Mo opened the door, a fresh floral scent filled his nose. He looked down and was surprised to find a bunch of delicate flowers placed at the door.
Cheng Mo was puzzled, picked up the bouquet, and carefully looked at the beautiful flowers in his hand. In an instant, memories came to his mind, and he couldn't help but think of the past. At that time, Ban Mu also came to pick him up from get off work with the same small bouquet of flowers. However, that day, the bouquet was accidentally forgotten in the yard, and it was baptized by wind and rain all night. Later, when Ban Mu remembered this and brought the bouquet into the house, they were surprised to find that the flowers did not wither because of the wind and rain, but bloomed more brilliantly.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mo's mood suddenly became heavy and sad. He stared at the carefully wrapped bouquet in his hand, looked around, and asked loudly: "Whose flowers are these? Did you put them in the wrong place?" However, there was silence all around, and no one responded. Cheng Mo thought that perhaps the orc who sent the flowers was shy and embarrassed to show up, so he gently put the bouquet on the ground and turned around to go to work.
Just after Cheng Mo left, a tall figure quietly appeared in the corner. His eyes revealed a trace of confusion and loss, and he murmured to himself: "Could it be...he doesn't like it?" The figure stood silently in the same place, thinking about the reason, his heart was full of confusion and confusion.
