Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

Question? Mo Ji stared blankly at her, wondering what she had just asked him. He usually ignored unimportant things.

If Su Mu knew that this strange man in front of him had never intended to answer his questions from the beginning, he would probably find it both funny and sad.

He really is a freak...

Just as Su Mu was getting impatient, Mo Ji finally spoke.

Which questions?

The slow pace of his speech and the nonchalant tone inexplicably gave Su Mu an urge to punch him hard.

She gently rubbed her brow a few times to smooth out the throbbing pain between her brows before speaking.

"From now on, I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer it for me."

Mo Ji raised his eyes, and his lips had just moved when Su Mu warned him calmly.

"Don't even think about refusing, unless you want me to sue you for trespassing."

After she finished speaking, she realized that even if she did sue him, his uncle would probably be able to bail him out.

Just as she was thinking, she saw Mo Ji obediently shut his mouth, sit on the windowsill with his arms crossed, and look at Su Mu with a cold expression on his face, which was always expressionless, as if waiting for her to ask him a question.

"My first question is, how did you end up in my house?" Su Mu asked directly without mincing words.

Mo Ji stared at her intently the whole time, and after a long silence, he finally spoke, "You came here following that thing."

In fact, he had been following her home ever since the bidding meeting ended, and he only left after seeing her go upstairs.

He didn't know why he was following her; perhaps he was just curious that this young girl could withstand several moves from him without being defeated.

However, he subconsciously understood that he couldn't let her know that he had already followed her here. It was just a strange feeling, without any reason.

"That thing?" Su Mu raised an eyebrow, realizing he was referring to the monster from earlier.

"Second question, what was that thing just now?"

This time, Mo Ji remained silent for quite a while, pondering whether he should tell her, since the elders of the clan hadn't said anything about telling outsiders.

Well, they only said that we must abide by the clan rules, which should be acceptable...

"A stone."

If some old men knew that Mo Ji interpreted his meaning this way, they would probably be furious.

Hey! We don't think we ever agreed to you telling anyone! You bastard!

"A stone?!" Su Mu was a little confused by this strange answer, not understanding what the stone he was talking about had to do with this thing.

Mo Ji tilted his head slightly, looking at Su Mu as he spoke, "It was transformed from stone."

Upon hearing this answer, Su Mu was initially incredulous, but not surprised. She had guessed that the thing was extraordinary at first glance, and now that she heard Mo Ji's answer, she was more likely to accept it and would not lose her composure.

"You took it?" she couldn't help but ask.

Seeing Mo Ji nod, she pursed her lips and said again.

"One last question, you can answer it or not."

Her eyes were cold as she stared intently at him, as if she didn't want to miss a single moment on his face.

"Who exactly are you?"

She didn't necessarily need to know, but it would be best if he could tell her, because people are naturally curious about the unknown, and she was no exception.

After he finished speaking, Mo Ji's eyes seemed to deepen, and his tightly pursed lips silently revealed that he did not intend to tell her the truth.

The two stared directly at each other, and apart from the chirping of insects outside the window, there was not a sound in the room; the atmosphere was eerily silent.

P.S.: It's almost 2 AM before I updated, which is really too late, hahaha...
