On the other hand, An Xuetang came in and out mysteriously in the afternoon. Mo Yunjing just watched her busy, occasionally caring about wiping sweat for her.

An Xuetang ran back and forth several times before sitting beside him.

Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes. "Is everything done?"

An Xuetang chuckled, "Yep, got it! Tonight ah Jing, wait for my good news."

"Good." Mo Yunjing chuckled, she had already told him what she wanted to do tonight, and he was rather looking forward to the outcome.

The two of them chatted in the yard for a while, and soon Jiang Qingyang also returned.

He talked about his achievements at the Qin Mansion.

Mo Yunjing's eyes darkened slightly, "She really is Princess Yun Jiaran."

Jiang Qingyang narrowed his eyes, his inquisitive gaze fixed on Mo Yunjing, "Who exactly are you? How do you know the County Princess?"

An Xuetang was startled, she remembered Ah Jing also surnamed Yun. She cleared her throat at this moment and spoke in a slightly threatening tone, "Jiang Qingyang, didn't I warn you not to ask what you shouldn't?"

"I... I did something for you today, solved a big problem."

An Xuetang raised an eyebrow. "I know, that's why I'll make a few more dishes to reward you later. But no matter what you do for me, you can't inquire about our identities."

"Hmph," Jiang Qingyang silently rolled her eyes, muttering, "Anyway, I already know your name is An Xuetang!"

Mo Yunjing, An Xuetang: "..."

There is no doubt that he learned it during his time at the Qin residence!

However, the two of them won't dwell on it too much.

When An Xuetang saw that it was almost time, she went to the kitchen to cook.

She really did make three more dishes to reward Jiang Qingyang, poached chicken, spicy rabbit meat, and roasted chicken.

Anyway, the only meat they have now is chicken and rabbit, and he eats whatever he likes.

What's even better is that all these dishes suit Jiang Qingyang's taste. He ate so much he could barely walk.

In the middle of the night, An Xuetang got up.

"Is Tangtang going now?"

"I think it's pretty late now, I should go."

Mo Yunjing sat up, "Okay, Tangtang, be careful."

An Xuetang smiled, "Don't worry, I can handle this little thing."

After she finished speaking, she changed into a white dress. This was made from old fabric she had picked up from Mistress Li earlier that day.

She applied a layer of white powder to her face, then drew some lines on it. The next second, she turned to look at Mo Yunjing.

"...Mo Yunjing was shocked when he saw her face."

This... doesn't really look human!

But Mo Yun Jing kept a calm facade. An Xue Tang immediately frowned, "Ah Jing wasn't scared, is it because I don't look like a ghost enough?"

Mo Yunjing smiled, "Like."

Then how weren't you scared?

"Because in my eyes, you're just my sugarplum, even if you really become like that, I wouldn't be scared."

"... "

An Xuetang's heart skipped a beat instantly, she was being flirted with by this man again!

An Xuetang suddenly stood up, “I... I’ll go first, Ah Jing, don’t wait for me, get some sleep early.”

Before Mo Yunjing could say anything, she had already dashed out.

Mo Yunjing watched her leave, the corners of his mouth curling upwards. Every time he saw her with this shy and adorable expression, he was in a good mood.

An Xuetang ran out and patted her chest.

At this moment, the door to the neighboring room suddenly creaked open. As soon as Jiang Qingyang stepped out, he saw a figure in white clad in strange attire. He instantly became alert, clenching his fists and shouting, "Who is it?"

An Xuetang forgot she had painted herself with a ghost's makeup. She turned around slowly.

"Ah!" Even the usually composed Jiang Qingyang was startled into a shout, his trembling hand pointing at An Xuetang, "You...are you human or ghost?"

An Xuetang rolled her eyes. "What ghost? It's me!"

Jiang Qingyang's eyes widened. "You... you're An Xue Tang, why are you dressed up like this?"

An Xuetang was very pleased with his expression. The more he did this, the more it proved that her carefully designed makeup was perfect.

"Of course I have something to do." An Xue Tang snorted, "Quiet down for me, don't howl and wake up the villagers."

After that, she turned and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll be back soon. You stay here and take care of my husband for me, I'll make you something delicious in the morning."

An Xuetang knew that if she didn't give Ginger Qingyang something, this person would definitely pester her to go with him.

As expected, Jiang Qingyang, who had already made up his mind to go with An Xuetang to investigate, readily agreed after hearing An Xuetang's conditions.

Anyway, she seems to have realized that An Xue Tang is quite skilled and wouldn't get into trouble easily.

Now that there are delicious foods 'tempting' him, he naturally wants to choose the food. "You better remember what you said."

"Of course."

An Xuetang smirked. Her makeup paired with her smile sent shivers down Jiang Qingyang's spine.

He still has no idea what the next few nights hold, because since he saw this face, he's had nightmares every night!!

An Xue Tang went straight home to the An residence after leaving her own. She accurately found Liu's room and peered in through a small window. Seeing that Liu was already asleep, An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes and began to make noise.

The laughter <<< was chilling, a sound that sent shivers down your spine. You couldn't figure out how she managed to produce such a disturbing noise. >>>

In a short while, Liu shi on the bed woke up. She thought she was hearing laughter in a dream, and she was so scared that her forehead was sweating.

Just as she was relieved it had only been a dream, she heard the voice again. But this time, it wasn't laughter. Someone was calling 'mother'.

"Mommy~"

Liu suddenly sat up. The voice... it sounded familiar to her, just like her daughter's voice.

"Who is it...?"

"Mom~"

"Who on earth is it?" Liu felt a chill run down her spine.

"Doesn't mother want Ah Tang anymore?"

That voice, it's her daughter, isn't it!

Liu quickly crawled out of bed, "Ah Tang, is that my Ah Tang?"

"Mother, you've made me suffer so much."

Liu suddenly jumped, "A Tang, A Tang, where are you?! Come back, okay?"

Outside the window, An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes, "Mother really wants to see me?"

"Thinking, mama misses our Ah Tang, Ah Tang, come back soon, alright?" Mrs. Liu said, tears welling up in her eyes.

An Xuetang curled her lips, "Then Mother must guarantee that she won't dislike Tang when she sees Tang."

“How could mother ever dislike you, Tang'er? Come out and see me quickly.” Liu's words were quite sincere.

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes and then entered the courtyard. She then pushed open the door and slid inside.

Yes, she's on roller skates. She's wearing the ones that afternoon and Mo Yunjing made together.

...is just to make it look more like a ghost. ...

Liu shi nervously watched as the door creaked open. The next second, she screamed in fright!
