Chapter 1081: There Is a Tree on the Mountain, and the Tree Has Branches

Xie Heng quickly folded the letter paper and tucked it into the book, "This won’t do. I’ll write another one."He picked up the pen again and thought for a long time before slowly writing a sentence, "The mountain has trees, and trees have branches."

The mountain has trees, and trees have branches, my heart delights in you, but you do not know.

After finishing writing, Xie Heng folded the letter paper again and placed it into the envelope.

Mo Zhu couldn’t help but ask, "Young master, that’s it? You just wrote one sentence!"

Xie Heng’s face flushed slightly, "She will understand what I mean."

He handed the letter to Mo Zhu and earnestly instructed, "You’ll go to the Duke Mansion tomorrow morning. Just say you’re looking for Xiao Lu, but make sure no one notices."

Mo Zhu nodded, "I’ll remember."

Early the next morning, Mo Zhu went out.

At the Duke Mansion’s back door, he spoke words of praise to the gatekeeper for a long time and slipped a small piece of silver. Only then did the servant agree to go in and call Xiao Lu.

Ruru had just finished her practice and bathed, and Xiao Lu was helping her dress when a little maid came in and said, "Sister Xiao Lu, your relative is looking for you outside."

Xiao Lu was taken aback; she’d been kidnapped when she was very young and knew nothing about where she was from, who her parents were, let alone any relatives.

Xiao Lu asked suspiciously, "Did the person say who they are?"

The little maid replied, "He said he’s your cousin, with the surname Xie."

Upon hearing the surname Xie, Ruru’s heart suddenly stirred, and she told Xiao Lu, "Go have a look. Perhaps your family has finally found you after all this time."

Xiao Lu thought it over and agreed, and hurried out.

Arriving at the back door, Xiao Lu immediately saw Mo Zhu.

Since Miss always used to play with Young Master Xie, she naturally recognized Young Master Xie’s servant.

She pulled Mo Zhu to the outside of the wall and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Mo Zhu looked around to make sure no one was there and quickly slipped the letter into her hand, "Give it to your young lady."

Xiao Lu hastily tucked the letter into her sleeve and was about to dash back inside, but Mo Zhu quickly called her, "I’ll wait here for you, at least get a reply."

Xiao Lu nodded, urgently heading back.

Returning indoors, Ruru was already dressed and having breakfast. Xiao Lu sent away the maids who were serving inside, then took out the letter and whispered, "Young Master Xie had Mo Zhu deliver this."

Ruru was stunned, then took the letter over, a sudden blush of Hongxia spreading across her face, "Go keep watch at the door."

She carefully opened the letter, which contained only one line, "The mountain has trees, and trees have branches."

Ruru realized right away, feeling so happy she could almost fly.

The last time she met Xie Heng, she repeatedly thought over what they said during their meeting, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t confirm his intentions.

Until this moment, she understood that he had the same feelings as her.

Xiao Lu, standing at the door, glanced back at Ruru and whispered, "Mo Zhu is still waiting outside, asking for Miss to send a reply."

Ruru suddenly became anxious. A reply, what should she say?

Moreover, this wouldn’t be good; if she wrote something ambiguous and it was discovered, she’d be too ashamed to go out.

Ruru thought for a moment, "Tell Mo Zhu to rest assured."

Xiao Lu came inside, "Just those few words?"

Ruru nodded, "He’ll understand."

Xiao Lu had no choice but to leave.

She went to the back door to relay the message to Mo Zhu.

Mo Zhu kept those few words close to his heart and hurriedly rushed back, entering the house panting, meeting Xie Heng’s hopeful gaze, "Miss Jiang said, ’Rest assured.’

Xie Heng asked eagerly, "Just that one sentence?"

Mo Zhu nodded.
