Chapter 247: Act as a matchmaker

Chapter 247: Act as a matchmaker

Xiao Ru was in a daze from hearing this. She suddenly opened her mouth, hesitating on whether she should say something.

“If you want to say something, then just say it.” Chen Ning looked over at her.

“This servant wants to say that Bodyguard Hei is quite good. I heard that he saved the young miss yesterday. His martial arts and character are good, do you want this servant to ask if he has someone, or if he is married......”

Xiao Ru did not even get to finish chattering before Chen Ning picked up one of the eggs that Chu Shao Bai sent over to plug her mouth up with.

“That’s right, Bodyguard Hei is good. His martial arts and character are good, why don’t I act as a matchmaker and marry you to him?” Chen Ning giggled and said.

“Wu, wu, wu, wu, wu!”

Xiao Ru’s mouth was stuffed with an egg and she could not say anything. She had a scared look on her face as she shook her head.

“Next time you try to match this young miss with someone, I’ll get some speech impairing medicine and make it so that you’ll never be able to say anything else!”

Chen Ning looked at Xiao Ru and then walked out of the room.

Exiting the room, she almost crashed into someone’s embrace. Quickly stopping, she looked up and found Mo Chuan’s tall figure standing in front of her room, not moving at all.

“Xiao Hei, what are you doing here?”

After Chen Ning asked this, she thought that Mo Chuan could have heard everything that she and Xiao Ru said about him, especially that last part. She suddenly began to feel guilty.

“How long have you been here?” She asked in a probing manner.

“Not long.” Mo Chuan’s voice was cold. His dark eyes were calm, revealing no emotions at all.

How long is not long!

Chen Ning silently shouted.

Although Mo Chuan was wearing a mask and she couldn’t see his face, she could guess that he must have heard everything.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have suddenly turned into a large ice cube. He released a cold aura that even the sun’s rays could not penetrate, making his body ice cold.

“Eh, have you eaten yet? Let’s go and have some breakfast first. The skills of Chun Tao and Xia He aren’t bad, they can make all kinds of congee and desserts. You will definitely love their food.”

Chen Ning continued to talk out of guilt. Her eyes looked everywhere, not daring to look at Mo Chuan out of embarrassment.

She really wanted to bite her tongue off out of regret. Why did she pick him to joke about, even saying that she would marry Xiao Ru to him! He was an assassin that killed people without even blinking, how could she offend him!

Mo Chuan stood there with his arms crossed. His deep, dark eyes stared at her, not moving or saying anything at all.

She was feeling even more embarrassed. She lowered her head as she tried to walk past him.

Who would have thought that after two steps, Mo Chuan’s body would suddenly disappear and appear in front of her, making her hit her head against him.

“Xiao Hei, why are you always blocking my way?” Chen Ning rubbed her painful nose and angrily said.

“Ask me.” He suddenly said.

“Ask what?” Chen Ning found this strange.

“Ask me if I have someone or if I’m married. Ask me and I’ll tell you.” Mo Chuan said while looking at her with a serious gaze.

“Pu!” Chen Ning almost couldn’t hold it in and almost spat all over him. Her face instantly turned completely red.

He did hear everything!

“Ke, ke, ke!” Chen Ning had a flushed face as she muttered, “What does it matter to me if you’re married or not?”

Mo Chuan did not say anything and he made no movement at all.

She had no choice but to ask, “Alright, then let me ask you. How old are you right now? Are you seeing anyone, or have you married anyone?”

“I’m twenty-four years old. I’m not seeing anyone and I’m not married.” Mo Chuan slowly replied.

Chen Ning nodded with a smile, “Alright, now I know. I’ve finished asking, so can you let me go now?”

Mo Chuan still did not move.

“Is there anything else?”

“Didn’t you forget something?”

“What?” She asked in a confused voice.

“You said you would be a matchmaker for me.” Mo Chuan calmly said.
