My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Mei Xueer looked at the table full of pig intestines and suddenly they lost their appeal.

"I have certainly thought about what you said. But I don't think I am so important that Qiu Shang would do all this. So what is he trying to do? If he wanted to harm me, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. So, this is exactly what I can't figure out."

Li Mo's lips curled slightly: "Why not change your thinking. Maybe he just wants to please you."

"Cui Hongjing?" Mei Xueer first thought of the Dog Prince.

If it was to please her, apart from the Dog Prince, she really couldn't think of anyone else who was stupid enough and rich enough to do such a thing.

Hearing her say the three words "Cui Hongjing" without hesitation, Li Mo's lips immediately drooped, "Xue'er, have you finished eating?"

Mei Xueer: "...Ah, eat, I'm done."

"Then let's go and take you back home."

The meal came to an abrupt end for no apparent reason.

This place is not too far from the Prime Minister's residence, and the carriage ride only takes an incense stick of time.

Mei Xueer clearly felt that the atmosphere in the carriage was a little weird.

Li Mo didn't say a word along the way, and his face remained expressionless, as if he had become a different person.

She thought about it carefully and realized that he had been like this since she uttered the three words "Cui Hongjing" while eating.

Oh, is this man jealous?

Forget it, good-looking men are trouble.

Anyway, she had already made it clear to him that she only treated him as a friend. If he still insisted, there was nothing she could do.

Oh, my damn charm that has nowhere to go!

After sending Mei Xueer back home, Li Mo said, "Thank you on behalf of Du Zheng," and got into the carriage without looking back.

Mei Xueer shook her head helplessly and let him go.

Li Mo turned the car around and headed straight for the Pig Intestine Restaurant.

Ah Zi saw the Rolls-Royce in the carriage from a distance, and quickly asked someone to open the side door, and the carriage drove straight in.

"Master, what's wrong? What happened?" A Zi looked at Li Mo who had hidden herself in darkness and asked cautiously.

This was the private room where Li Mo and Mei Xueer had sat before. Li Mo was now sitting on the chair where Mei Xueer had sat just now.

Li Mo rolled his eyes at her and said, "Are all of you women as heartless as her? Are you willing to hang yourself on a tree?"

"Oh, I understand..." Ah Zi chuckled, turned around and ran, "I will find a way to help the master please Miss Mei!"

Li Mo stood up and shouted at Ah Zi's back: "If you can't handle this, get out of here and go back to the valley!"

"Ah? No!...Okay!" A Zi's helpless voice came from downstairs.

Li Mo sat down and continued to sulk:

I've clearly told her clearly, I just didn't say I like her directly. Aren't you afraid of scaring her?

In that case, shouldn't she have guessed it was me?

Okay, it’s fine that she’s stupid and can’t guess it, but why does she think that Cui Hongjing is trying to please her?

It was obviously me, I was the one trying to please her!

Besides, what's so good about that man? He will only hurt her.

But I won’t, never!

Damn woman!

How stupid!

……

Mei Xueer returned home and sorted out her emotions for a moment, then called Wen Bing to ask about Shi Lao San.

"Princess, I just found out today that the family of three next door to Shi Laosan was killed on the Lantern Festival." Wen Bing said with some gloating, "People like that should have died long ago. Shi Laosan's family was bullied by them a lot in the past."

"Dead?" Mei Xue'er was surprised. "Who did it?"

Wen Bing shook his head and told what he had learned. "Didn't the Gou Gen family harass the princess on the street that day? Not long after they left, they were killed and their bodies were thrown into a mass grave. As for who did it, I don't know."

Although she felt that killing a child was a bit too much, that family was certainly not good people. Mei Xueer did not feel sympathy for them, but she inexplicably felt that this matter might be related to her.

She thought about it carefully. On the Lantern Festival, after Gou Gen threw dirty water on her, Liu Feifei also came and started to make things difficult for her, trying to embarrass her.

Then, Cui Hongqi came and Cui Hongjing also came and helped her out.

Then, Gou Gen’s family of three were killed, and the next morning, Liu Feifei’s face was disfigured and her legs were broken.

If you say these are all coincidences, it would be too much of a coincidence.

If it was because of her, then who would take revenge on Gou Gen's family and Liu Feifei for her?

There were only two people present at the time who were capable of doing this: Cui Hongjing and Cui Hongqi.

Although Cui Hongjing is a black-hearted person, Mei Xueer doesn't think he is someone who can be so cruel to a child.

Cui Hongqi was even less likely to do so. How could it be possible that such a calm and carefree man, obsessed with painting and like a banished immortal, was also a disabled person?

The key point is, apart from that palace banquet, she and Cui Hongqi had no other intersection at all, so he had no reason to kill someone for her.

Could it be that it was really Cui Hongjing?

It turns out that he is such a ruthless person!

I get chills just thinking about it. Fortunately, we got divorced.

"Then, is Shi Laosan willing to move?" Mei Xueer continued to ask.

Wen Bing: "I persuaded them to agree, but they just refused to take the princess's money. Finally, I did as the princess asked and lent them money to settle down. They had to return one tael of silver every month until they paid it back. Only then did they agree."

"Then, you go and help them move tomorrow. Pack up in advance and they can move in directly after they move in." Mei Xueer breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were willing to move, it would be good. Moving here would be close and she could take care of them. Xiaobao could also come over at any time to learn martial arts from the mythical beasts.

Mei Jiayun found a good place. The new stall and house were not far from the prime minister's residence, only a quarter of an hour's walk at most.

Although the yard is small and relatively old, it is a world of difference compared to Shi Laosan’s previous home.

Xiaobao ran around happily in the yard, holding onto Wen Bing and clamoring to learn martial arts. Several servants came in and out to help clean up, making the place very lively.

Shi Laosan's eyes were red and he didn't know how to express his gratitude.

"I owe Xiaobao a life. As long as I am here, I will take care of you for the rest of your life." Mei Xueer said, "But Xiaobao has lost his mother. If you are too busy in the future, you can always ask Xiaobao to come to my place. There are many people at my place, so Xiaobao can have some companions..."

Shi Lao San: "In fact, during this period, Miss Mei often came to treat Xiao Bao. He doesn't seem to be that stupid anymore. I think he will recover soon."

Mei Xueer was dejected. It seemed that he was getting better now, but it had been delayed for too long and recovery was impossible. The best outcome was that she hoped he could take care of himself in the future.

Thinking of this, she said to the five beasts, "When you are free, teach Xiaobao martial arts seriously. Xiaobao is very talented. After he learns martial arts, no one will dare to bully him anymore."

Several divine beasts readily agreed. Shi Lao San sighed again, wondering what great virtue he had accumulated in his previous life to be able to meet a noble person like Miss Mei in this life.
