Chapter 23: Twenty-two, eting Chapter 23: Twenty-two, eting Mo Shaoze had just turned the corner when a fierce fist ca hurtling towards him. He quickly dodged to the side and stepped back swiftly, “Don’t hit ! It’s .”
Lu Hanmo slightly raised his eyebrows, halting his attack, “Why did you co?” He had recognized Mo Shaoze, the one following him, in the instant he attacked.
Mo Shaoze chuckled and walked up to him, placing his hand on Lu Hanmo’s shoulder, “I was just curious! Co on, tell the truth, when did you et Luo Shu? What’s your relationship?” Lu Hanmo, although very handso, had a cold deanor that most girls wouldn’t dare to challenge.
“We t a few days ago.” Thinking of Luo Shu, Lu Hanmo thought of her injured arm. He wondered if her injury had gotten any better?
“I don’t believe it. Just after one eting, would she send you stuff?” Mo Shaoze teased with a laugh.
“Believe it or not.” Lu Hanmo looked at Mo Shaoze with disdain and brushed his hand away as he walked ahead.
Mo Shaoze, unconcerned, shrugged his shoulders and caught up, placing his hand on Lu Hanmo’s shoulder again, and snickered, “Hey, don’t tell you’re embarrassed? Is Luo Shu the person you’re seeing?”
Lu Hanmo glanced at Mo Shaoze, speechless.
“Is she very pretty?” Mo Shaoze continued to gossip.
“Talk nonsense one more ti, and I’ll knock you out,” Lu Hanmo threatened in a calm voice.
“Such a Roo,” Mo Shaoze snorted arrogantly. Fine, don’t tell then. He will see the real person soon enough anyway.
Upon hearing the knock on the door, Luo Shan walked forward to open it. She paused, blush rising to her face, when she saw two unfamiliar handso n standing at the door, “Who are you looking for?” She had never seen such handso n before. However, one of them, though good-looking, had an impassive face that made him seem icy cold, causing her to feel sowhat intimidated.
“Excuse , does Luo Shu live here?” Mo Shaoze asked with a beaming smile. Reading Luo Shan’s fearful gaze towards Lu Hanmo, he began to worry whether, in the future, Lu Hanmo would have trouble finding a wife. He wondered if Luo Shu might be soone special. With that thought, he beca even more eager to et her.
“Yes!” Luo Shan nodded shyly and moved to the side, “My sister is inside, would you like to co in?”
Luo Shu also heard the voices outside and ca out from the room, “Xiao Shan, who’s there?”
“Sister, these two gentlen are looking for you,” Luo Shan said, turning around and pointing to the two n behind her, Lu Hanmo and his companion.
Luo Shu turned around and saw Lu Hanmo’s resolute face, chiseled like a work of art, and she stood there stunned. Why had he co?
Mo Shaoze nudged Lu Hanmo with his elbow, “She looks pretty decent, just a bit thin and young for my taste. Lu Hanmo, I didn’t expect you to have this kind of preference.”
Lu Hanmo glared at Mo Shaoze, taking steps towards Luo Shu.
Regaining her composure, Luo Shu bead a radiant smile, “Brother Lu, what brings you here?” He must be here for sothing important, right?
Lu Hanmo’s lips curled slightly, “I want to ask you sothing.”
“Sure, let’s go inside to talk,” Luo Shu nodded and smiled.
“Luo Shu, hello! I’m Lu Hanmo’s good brother, my na is Mo Shaoze, and I’m very glad to et you.” Mo Shaoze stepped forward with a smile and extended his hand.
“Hello!” Luo Shu reached out and shook hands with Mo Shaoze, her look holding a trace of complexity. She had heard from her grandfather about Mo Shaoze; he was a remarkable young man, but alas, he died at the age of twenty-four.
That would be next year when Mo Shaoze and Lu Hanmo would go to MD country together on a secret mission. During that mission, Lu Hanmo also got seriously injured and fell into a coma.
It wasn’t until three months later that Lu Hanmo woke up from his coma. Grieving the death of his good brother Mo Shaoze, the already reticent man grew even more silent.
“You know ?” Taken aback by Luo Shu’s gaze, Mo Shaoze felt puzzled. Her eyes carried a sense of pity as well as reminiscence, as if he was already dead and she was looking at his photo on a tombstone.
“Not really,” Luo Shu touched her nose awkwardly and led the two n toward the house. That event hadn’t occurred yet, would her rebirth change anything? She didn’t want Lu Hanmo to live unhappily ever again.
“Please have a seat, I’ll go and brew so tea for you,” Luo Shu said as the two n settled down.
Your hand is still injured; you don’t need to trouble yourself!” Lu Hanmo glanced at Luo Shu’s arm, unable to discern much due to the thick clothing. However, he vividly rembered the injury from that day, which likely hadn’t fully healed over these few days of recovery.
A sweet warmth filled Luo Shu’s heart, and she shook her head with a smile, “It’s alright, I’m completely healed.” With the Spiritual Spring, any injury could heal instantly.
“Sister, let pour it instead,” Luo Shan interjected. If Lu Hanmo hadn’t ntioned it, she would have forgotten about her sister’s injury.
Recalling the commotion caused by the Wang family yesterday, Luo Shan glanced at Luo Shu’s arm with so concern. Once these two brothers left, she definitely needed to check whether her sister’s wound had reopened because of yesterday’s incident.
Seeing Luo Shan’s worried expression, Luo Shu patted her shoulder with a smile, “I’m fine, don’t worry. I’ll get the tea leaves for you.”
While speaking, Luo Shu headed towards a cabinet nearby. She had ordered the cabinet to be custom-made, although they didn’t have many clothes, they still needed a place to keep them.
Opening the cabinet, Luo Shu reached in and took out a canister of tea. The tea canister was taken from her space; in this era, only very particular households would have the leisure and refinent to brew and drink tea. Ordinary people, satisfied with just having enough to eat, wouldn’t squander money on such a luxury as tea leaves.
Lu Hanmo and Mo Shaoze were stunned for a mont when they saw Luo Shu take out the tea canister, astonishnt showing in their eyes. Judging by Luo Shu’s living standards, they knew she wasn’t wealthy; tea leaves weren’t cheap, so why would she afford to buy them?
Luo Shu smiled and handed the tea canister to the still-distracted Luo Shan, “This tea is what I picked and roasted myself on the mountain, and it tastes quite good.” Drinking tea has many benefits, not only for nurturing health but also for its anti-cancer properties, protection of the cardiovascular system, and radiation resistance, which is why she also grew a lot of tea leaves in her space.
The tea leaves from her space differed from those in the outside world; because they were nourished by Spiritual Energy for a long ti, they tasted better and were more beneficial for the body.
