Chapter 747: I’ll Be Like You When I Grow Up

　　Gu Bailu handed a contract to Mo Qian’er.

　　Mo Qian’er took it doubtfully. When she read it, tears welled up in her eyes. “How was I so lucky to meet you, master?”

　　Her greatest wish was to keep the baby by her side and never abandon it the way her parents abandoned her.

　　She had to protect him with everything she had.

　　She hadn’t expected her master to know her heart and help her win everything.

　　“That’s because you’re beautiful, and deserve to be loved more.” Gu Bailu pinched her cheek. “Alright, stop crying. Put the contract away. I have another copy. If he breaks the contract, send me a letter, and see if I don’t storm the gates of his nation.”

　　Mo Qian’er smiled. “It feels really good to have a backer.”

　　“Your master’s thigh isn’t large, but you can still hug it. And if I can’t do anything, there’s still my prince. So, if you suffer any wrongs in Heavenly Wind Empire, don’t hide it, and remember to tell me.”

　　“Master, why are you so good to me?”

　　Mo Qian’er knew that saying it was because she was beautiful was only a joke.

　　Gu Bailu sighed. “How can this be considered good? If I was really good to you, I would be doing whatever I can to stop Lu Fenying from taking you away…”

　　“Master, don’t say that, or I’ll be too ashamed to show my face.” Full of guilt, Mo Qian’er cut her off.

　　Gu Bailu smiled. “Actually, I have a master who watched me grow up and was very good to me. He was tolerant of me even when I made mistakes. Even now, when he’s imprisoned, he’s still making plans for me. As a disciple, I’m a lot worse than you…”

　　Gu Bailu now had a disciple of her own. Although there weren’t necessarily many things that she could teach her, she hoped she could take care of her disciple the way her master took care of her.

　　So, part of her feelings for Qian’er stemmed from her master.

　　She couldn’t be good to her master right now, so she had to become like him.

　　Mo Qian’er blinked at her. “Where is master’s master now? Can’t he be rescued?”

　　“The reason I want the Sky Splitting Mirror is to save him, but unfortunately, the Archfiend took the two pieces which I had.”

　　Mo Qian’er bit her lip. “Master, I’m useless. I can’t help you with anything.”

　　“Who says you can’t help me with anything? Didn’t I get this piece of the Sky Splitting Mirror because of you? Don’t underestimate yourself. I will only use those who are talented; nobody’s strength should be underestimated.”

　　Mo Qian’er nodded and smiled. “Master, I understand.”

　　Gu Bailu rubbed her head. “Xiao Xiao… is doing fine.”

　　Mo Qian’er shook her head. “Don’t mention him to me, master. I promised the crown prince that I wouldn’t be involved with him anymore. I hope you can persuade him as well, master.”

　　She couldn’t drag Xiao Xiao down with her again. Lu Fenying had promised to let him go; there wouldn’t be a second time.

　　“I’m afraid that the two of you will still need to see each other. Xiao Xiao will check on you after he recovers.”

　　Mo Qian’er frowned. “I’m fine. I don’t need him to visit me anymore. Master, I can’t see him again.”

　　Mr. Xiao was willing to risk his life for her. She couldn’t accept such deep love.

　　She didn’t have the right to accept it. Even if Lu Fenying died, she couldn’t be with Xiao Xiao.

　　Although she had once found his gentleness comforting, she had never thought of sinking into it.

　　“Lu Fenying agreed to it.”
