Chapter 1013: Daughter, Give it Up!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A harem meant that things would always be unfair!

Jun Mo Xie had brought this matter up unintentionally, but it also caused a great alarm in his heart...

“Haha...” Jun Mo Xie laughed dryly. “That was just a joke, please do not take it to heart... Miss Miao, this is the score you wanted; I’ve already prepared it. I wonder if Miss Miao wants a set of the lyrics as well?”

Miao Xiao Miao was somewhat stunned. She still hadn’t fully recovered from the sweet feeling when Jun Mo Xie changed the topic. Those words seemed somewhat strange, but she couldn’t tell what was wrong about it...

“Naturally.” Miao Xiao Miao replied subconsciously.

“Then I shall immediately get on with it. Hur hur, it’s just a small task, and not worth mentioning.” Jun Mo Xie smiled casually. “For this Song of the Burial of Flowers to land in Miss’s hands, it will surely have a new splendor, the both of you bringing out the best in each other. This little brother can be considered to have fulfilled a little desire of mine...”

As he said that, he raised the brush in his hand and started to write with great style...

The three chatted for a moment longer and Miao Xiao Miao bade her farewell, leaving with the music scores and Little Beansprout. However, she still felt as if something was not right, yet she couldn’t understand what it was...

She only felt that today’s Mo Jun Ye was much more distant that yesterday... there was an indescribable reserved feeling that although was completely hidden, felt exceedingly real...

Miao Xiao Miao would rather that she’d sensed wrongly! Why? Why was I still treated with this kind of attitude despite putting down my status as a girl and initiating everything? Why do you treat me like this?!

Last night, although Miao Xiao Miao had been somewhat forceful in her approach, she had clearly sensed that Mo Jun Ye’s heart had definitely been shaken.

He wasn’t rejecting her completely!

He had been moved as well!

And that instant of sweetness had kept her heart company the entire night!

That was why, she’d once again set down her pride as a girl, and initiated once again...

But this time, she felt that her feelings were very different from her expectations...

Why did Mo Jun Ye become so much colder to her even though they’d spent a night braving life and death together?

No... that can be. From the start, he’d used her as the reason for him escaping the danger. At that time, she could clearly sense that Jun Ye had not treated her as an outsider... instead, he’d treated her as one of his own...

In that moment, Miao Xiao Miao could clearly sense the satisfaction in her heart. A woman’s intuition cannot be wrong...

The same intuition told her that the sense of detachment only started after that ‘linked room maidservant’ joke! From that point on, Mo Jun Ye had clearly become much more distant. But why? What was the reason?

Because of a joke... although it could possibly turn into truth in the future, it shouldn’t result in such a large change!

That was only a joke...

But Miao Xiao Miao’s instinct was definitely not wrong!

Only, the truth was still somewhat different from her guess.

Truthfully... even Jun Mo Xie himself didn’t know why he thought that way. As a model youth that had gone through the proper moral education of the modern world... erm, although he’d never received formal education, but the concepts of a single husband and wife family was something that had been deeply ingrained into his bones. A person can love two people, but they would have to go through the painful process of breaking up in order to start a new relationship...

But Jun Mo Xie had forgotten that it had already been some time since he’d transcended over here!

This world was one where the strong ruled and the weak knelt. Men were the dominant party in relationships, while women were quiet and subservient. In addition, due to the constant warring, the number of men was much lesser than women... resulting in this society of one man with many wives...

And more importantly, it was every man’s dream to have lots of women to serve them... any society’s men would all think the same way. Whether a man was successful in life or not, they all wished for the same thing! Jun Mo Xie was naturally not an exception...

In this society where having many wives was perfectly normal, this system perfectly satisfied the desires in all men’s hearts. So Jun Mo Xie basically did not need much time to adjust before he accepted this norm...

Perhaps, this was also the weakness of all men!

And so, it also became the weakness of Young Master Jun. Regardless of whether one was a gentleman or a base person, a saint or a hero, as long as one was a man... all of them thought the same way... The only difference was in whether the man could control himself; that was all!

A man who could control himself would be a so-called good man. As for those who couldn’t control themselves...

But Jun Mo Xie could not be considered to be a good man in this environment. Or perhaps one should say... he’d basically never tried to restrain himself...

His thoughts in this matter were more in line with the standards of the ancient people: the unity of the harem!

This was the most important point for a man of this era to consider...

A peaceful and united family would ensure success in every venture. But in this society, the phrase ‘a peaceful and united harem would ensure success in every venture’ would be more apt! Jun Mo Xie was quite helpless in this regard as well. F*ck, the men in this world are already lesser than the women. There are too few teabags, and too many tea cups... what can I do about it? I can only flow according to nature! In any case, I cannot be blamed...

Although she’d obtained the Song of the Burial of Flowers, the music score for such a precious song, Miao Xiao Miao’s heart was completely not placed on it at all... Her heart was in a state of confusion. Why was he suddenly so cold to me? Could it be that I hadn’t expressed myself clearly enough yesterday? What is he saying exactly? Is that considered a rejection?

Carrying her heavy emotions, Miao Xiao Miao returned home listlessly. Her mood had already dropped to an extremely low point where she was unwilling to even open her mouth and speak...

The keen eyed Mother Miao naturally noticed that her daughter went out happily and returned in a downcast manner. How could she not be worried? As such, she secretly pulled Little Beansprout to the side and asked her in detail.

But Little Beansprout seemed to not understand the situation well, so she was unable to narrate very properly...

Helpless, Mother Miao went to her daughter’s room to coax her.

After using up most of her saliva, she finally got Miao Xiao Miao to start talking in a shy manner. Truthfully, her confused self was also keen to find a person to confide in. And her own mother was naturally the best choice...

Miao Xiao Miao hadn’t mentioned the crux of the matter yet, but with the close relationship of the mother and daughter duo, Mother Miao still managed to find the truth with her relentless questioning...

After understanding the whole situation, Madam Miao sighed bitter and shook her head. Her daughter was indeed still too naive. Although she could be considered very clever and witty, she was still quite clueless in these matters...

“Mother... what do you think... is going on? He’s acting so coldly towards me. Does it mean that he’s rejecting me?” Miao Xiao Miao asked with a red face. She was truly out of ideas this time. Otherwise, she would never ask in such a direct manner...

“Ai... my poor daughter...” Madam Miao didn’t know what to say. She was a talented young beauty of her generation back then as well. But with regards to her daughter’s situation, she felt somewhat helpless as well...

After thinking for a while, she asked, “Xiao Miao, you said that when you confessed your feelings to Mo Jun Ye, he’d been moved in that moment. Yet, he never promised you anything upfront right?”

“That’s right. But I’m certain his heart had been moved. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have just returned like this.” Miao Xiao Miao said in a pitiful manner.

“Then... Xiao Miao, listen to mother; give it up. You won’t have any happiness following a man like that.” Madam Miao sighed and advised seriously.

“Why? Mother, why would you say that? He’s such a good man, why won’t I obtain any happiness?” Miao Xiao Miao raised her head with shock. “Mother... could it be that you really bear to see me become a tool of the family for creating marriage alliances?”

Madam Miao shook her head in a forlorn manner. “There are no absolutes in this world. Even marrying for the sake of the family doesn’t necessarily mean that there would not be any happiness... Take your Father and I for example. Wasn’t that the case as well? Do you think that we are not happy?”

“No!” Miao Xiao Miao cried aloud with shock. “Mother, I’m different from you all! The you at that time didn’t know anything... But mother, even if you didn’t know anything, could it be you don’t have the dreams of a young girl in your heart? This daughter shall ask bravely; how different is Father from the man of your dreams?”

Madam Miao’s body shook lightly, but her face remained calm. “Dreams... who didn’t have those before? But mother’s dreams are only fanciful thinking...”

“But my dream now is real! There is indeed such an excellent man in reality! He is my dream! I cannot pretend as if I’ve never met him before! Furthermore, we’ve gone through the trials of life and death before, and it was him who tore open my veil! In fact, I’ve already nearly obtained him!” Miao Xiao Miao cried out in an agitated manner. “If Mother and the family want me to marry another person, I would rather die!”

Looking at her daughter’s tear stained face and hearing her determined words, Madam Miao sighed heavily with a sense of helplessness...

“Xiao Miao, when Mother said that you would not obtain happiness by following Mo Jun Ye, I did not say it just to scare you. Have you considered before why this Mo Jun Ye is unwilling to accept you? You are a ravishingly beautiful young girl with such a good family background and character. Your cultivation is high, and your intelligence surpass most of your peers. In the future, you will certainly be a great help to him. Even in matters of the family, Mother believes that you will certainly be an outstanding and virtuous wife, as well as an excellent mother. Able to stand out in public and excel in the kitchen... whoever marries you will have saved at least 500 years of time struggling to gain a footing in the Misty Illusory Manor! I’m sure Mo Jun Ye is not so blind as to not be able to see this! But why did he still reject you? Why? Could it be that you’ve never thought of this seriously before?”
