Chapter 380
About an hour later, Medusa left just as Mo Yuyan arrived.
In the quiet of the night, a man and a woman alone together in a room, and they had been there for an hour…
The woman left with a blush of shyness on her face…
Mo Yuyan’s imagination ran wild, and she was shocked, “Sister Medusa, could it be… that you and His Majesty…”
Queen Medusa’s face turned red, and she quickly explained, “It’s not what you think. I just had something to discuss with His Majesty! Please don’t misunderstand!”
Mo Yuyan nodded repeatedly, teasingly saying, “Don’t worry, I absolutely did not misunderstand! His Majesty is busy with state affairs during the day, and you don’t have time, so you can only meet late at night, just the two of you! I understand! I completely understand!”
“I don’t think you understand at all!”
Queen Medusa said, annoyed and embarrassed, “My conversation with His Majesty was about serious matters, very serious matters!”
Mo Yuyan nodded again, “I understand!!! You were just discussing serious matters. it’s just that the discussion went a bit long, nearly an hour, and before you knew it, it was late at night!”
“You silly girl!”Mo Yuyan burst into laughter, “Sister Medusa, there’s no need to explain. To explain is to cover up, to cover up is to reveal the truth! Who doesn’t know about your relationship with His Majesty now?”
“I…” Queen Medusa opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything.
Now she was truly at a loss for words.
“Sister Medusa, what exactly do you like about His Majesty? Is it his handsome face, his strategic genius, his commanding presence, or his shamelessness?”
Mo Yuyan’s eyes were filled with gossip.
Medusa found herself lost in thought, realizing it might be a little bit of all those qualities.
She suddenly snapped back into reality and in a fit of annoyed embarrassment, she said, “You cheeky girl! Even if I like His Majesty, so what? Don’t you have someone you like?”
“I… of course I do!” Mo Yuyan was suddenly at a loss for words.
“Really? You actually have one?”
It was Medusa’s turn to be a gossip, clicking her tongue as she said, “Who could it be that has captured the heart of such a beautiful and skilled martial artist like you? Tell me, and I’ll give you some advice!”
Women have the desire to confide, and Mo Yuyan was no exception.
She had kept this matter to herself for too long and now wanted to share it with someone.
“I don’t know his name. I just call him ‘Senior,’ “Mo Yuyan said shyly.
Medusa realized, “Senior? Judging by this title, he must be older and not weak in strength, at least a Grandmaster-level expert, right?”
“He is a Great Grandmaster, a very strong Great Grandmaster!” Mo Yuyan said proudly.
“A Great Grandmaster, huh? You certainly set your sights high! But which Great Grandmaster is it? I’ve almost met all the Great Grandmasters of today’s present time…”
“It’s not any of them. It’s someone else!”
“Who else could it be?” Medusa was puzzled.
Mo Yuyan leaned in and whispered, “Sister Medusa, this is a secret that should not be disclosed to others under normal circumstances! But now that you are a great master of Great Xia and have such a relationship with His Majesty, you should be qualified to know! Actually, the senior is one of us from Great Xia, always hidden in the shadows and unknown to outsiders!”
Medusa’s expression turned strange.
A Great Grandmaster from Great Xia?
Apart from Master Painter, it was only her. Who else could it be?
At that moment, Lin Beifan’s face came to her mind.
“Have you ever met your ‘Senior’? What does he look like?”
“I haven’t seen him, but I’ve touched his face, and he’s very handsome!” Mo Yuyan admitted shyly.
“Is he married now?” Medusa asked.
Mo Yuyan nodded repeatedly, “He is married, but only in recent years, and he doesn’t have any children yet! But I don’t mind. Since I love him, I love everything about him! I even plan to have a child for him!”
“How does he treat you?” Medusa continued to inquire.
“He treats me extremely well. He saved my life! And I was able to seek my revenge thanks to his help! I owe everything I have now to his guidance! In this life, I will marry no other man!”
The two women conversed, question and answer.
The more Queen Medusa learned about this ‘Senior’, the more certain she became that Mo Yuyan’s beloved was Lin Beifan.
Yet, Mo Yuyan was completely oblivious to this fact.
Observing Mo Yuyan’s hopeful anticipation for the future, Medusa remained silent for a while before asking, “Have you ever considered that the person you’ve been thinking about might be His Majesty?”
Mo Yuyan waved her hand, “I’ve thought about it, but it’s impossible for them to be the same person! One knows martial arts, and the other doesn’t at all. How could they be the same person? Besides, I’ve asked His Majesty, and it’s definitely not him!”
Medusa looked at her with a gaze filled with sympathy.
Silly girl, you’ve been sold and you’re even counting the money for him!
(TLN: You’ve been sold and you’re even counting the money for him, unaware of the exploitation but are also actively participating in it by facilitating the process, metaphorically “counting the money”.)
I don’t even know what to say to you!
“Sister Medusa, this matter is my secret. Please don’t tell anyone!” Mo Yuyan said shyly.
“Don’t worry, I’m not one to gossip! But I’m curious, aside from me, who else have you talked to about this?” Medusa asked curiously.
“I’ve only told His Majesty, and he knows and has promised to keep it a secret.”
Queen Medusa suddenly felt like bursting into laughter.
This woman has been sold so thoroughly!
And she was making fun of me just a moment ago?
Ha, just wait until this matter comes to light. I’ll laugh at you to death!
Even now, I can hardly hold it in!
“Sister Medusa, what’s wrong with you? Why is the corner of your mouth twitching?” Mo Yuyan asked curiously.
“It’s nothing, I just thought of something funny and couldn’t help but laugh, don’t mind me!” Medusa managed to say, struggling to suppress her laughter.
“I see!” Mo Yuyan nodded, somewhat understanding: “Sister Medusa, it was really nice talking to you! It’s getting late, so I won’t disturb your rest anymore. I’ll head back now!”
Queen Medusa waved goodbye: “Farewell! I wish you a harmonious union and a lifelong bond with Senior!”
“Thank you!” Mo Yuyan left in high spirits.
……
Time flows like water, and in the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
On this day, Lin Beifan used the Hand of Boundary Breaker at the usual time, hoping to fish out some good stuff.
Although he usually had terrible luck, today seemed a bit different.
As the fog cleared, a brand new world slowly unfolded before him.
