Chapter 28 - His request

After paying respect to both his parents, he got on his horse and rod all the way to Rebecca's manor. The Knights were taking aback by his sudden appearance, one of them ran inside to fetch the household.

---------------

Rebecca was busy in her room, taking her beauty treatments when a eunuch suddenly enter. ''What happened, don't you have common respect?'' The eunuch kowtowed till his head touched the ground, ''I am so sorry my mistress, your father and mother sent for you to welcome General Mo.''

---------------

Rebecca nodded and went to her closet, she wore an appropriate purple dress with long sleeves and carried a folded fan. She went with the eunuch leading the way. She was not at all surprised to see Mo beiyong on his horse looking majestic nor when he came down smoothly.

--------------

Rebecca curtseyed slightly before escorting him to the dining table, she whispered in his ear, ''What are you doing here?'' He whispered back, ''You will know very soon.'' He sat at the head of the table with her parents at the side, he fetched some rice onto his plates and started eating with his chopsticks.

-----------

After eating a full plate, he coughed slightly to get everybody's attention, Rebecca who was fully concentrated in eating her fried chicken with lobster was angry but had no choice but to look up with a smile.

-----------

''I wanted to formally ask Rebecca to accompany me to the dance, As this is the purpose of my visit.'' Rebecca choked on her salavia, of course she wanted to say yes but she was afraid of what Luther and Jack were gonna do to him.

-------------

As she was still debating whether yes or no, her mother replied in place of her. ''Of course our Rui would love to accompany you, isn't that Right Rebecca?'' Rebecca nodded her head faintly before eating another leg of fried chicken.

--------------

She escourted him to the gate before she said, ''Pick me up at five sharp, no later exceptions.'' Mo beiyong chuckled, he was at awe for her domainring aura.
