Chapter 441 - 196: Is It Unwanted, or Do You Not Want It? (Part 2)
How could she know even about his correspondence with Su Qianxue, and even the exact number of exchanges? What else does she not know about the Prince Manor?
"Heh..."
At this point, Yun Wanyao seemed to have found her confidence, and she was no longer afraid of him in the slightest.
She let out a cold laugh and said self-deprecatingly, "How could I have the ability to keep an eye on the Prince? It’s just that the truth will eventually come out. If you don’t want others to know, you mustn’t do it yourself."
"I kindly dissolve the engagement to set you free, Prince. You don’t have to thank me, but please don’t take this as an opportunity to make things difficult for me."
"Let’s part amicably—it honors the years of our connection."
The information about Mo Yuanhao’s private meetings and the number of letters exchanged with Su Qianxue was, of course, learned from Yun Wanqing’s inner thoughts.
Yun Wanqing’s inner thoughts were magical and mysterious, so she wasn’t afraid of suspicion or investigation from him at all.
She didn’t believe he could be so capable as to investigate Yun Wanqing’s inner thoughts.
"Since you didn’t have someone watching me, how did you find out about my relationship with Su Qianxue..."
Mo Yuanhao, angry and embarrassed, cut his question short as he suddenly realized something was off. He hastily stopped, explaining in a stiff voice.
"You’ve misunderstood me. There’s nothing going on with me and her, and I don’t even like her. Why would you dissolve the engagement because of her?"
"Why didn’t you come to ask me?"
He never expected that Yun Wanyao’s reason for breaking off the engagement was because of Su Qianxue.
He admitted that because of the books Su Qianxue gave him and the secrets she held, he had indeed gotten closer to her, and they did have frequent contact, which led to him neglecting Yun Wanyao.
However, he was certain that he did not have feelings for Su Qianxue; he was merely curious and interested.
How could Yun Wanyao misunderstand that he liked Su Qianxue?
She didn’t even ask, and then she broke off the engagement?
Moreover, she might not have the ability to keep an eye on him, but the Yun Family was different. The fact that she knew so much about his affairs must have something to do with the Yun Family.
Why was the Yun Family watching him, and what were their intentions?
In Mo Yuanhao’s mind, deep suspicion arose concerning Yun Zheng and others.
However, clearly, now was not the time to pursue this matter, and without evidence, he couldn’t make it a matter for the open, nor could he hold onto it stubbornly.
Everything would have to wait so he could investigate and then make considerations.
"Prince, stop deceiving yourself. If you didn’t like her, how could you be so close to her? I dare ask, would ordinary friends correspond so frequently?"
"Would they casually meet privately at each other’s residences? As your fiancée, since the Winter Banquet, we’ve only met twice..."
Yun Wanyao questioned sharply.
To prevent Mo Yuanhao from holding a grudge, she had already decided to cast the blame onto him.
Thus, she put on an appearance of jealousy, portraying herself as a spiteful woman, attributing the breaking of the engagement to jealousy and envy, greatly fulfilling Mo Yuanhao’s male ego.
In actuality, before this, she was nothing but scared and flustered, never thinking that the situation could be handled this way.
The fact that things progressed in this manner was entirely due to her impromptu actions.
As events unfolded, Yun Wanyao suddenly discovered a way to completely absolve herself.
"Forget it, let’s not talk about this. In any case, the engagement is already broken, so there’s no point discussing it further. I wish the Prince finds his soulmate and a happy union."
Mo Yuanhao: "..."
Before coming here, he was filled with anger and confusion, overwhelmed by the fury of losing his reason, wanting to find her for answers and an explanation.
Now that he finally got answers, his anger dissipated, leaving only a sense of helplessness.
After a moment, he sighed and said, "I was wrong before and will be cautious in the future, but as for the engagement breakup, I do not agree."
"Before the royal decree is announced, come with me to the palace, and let’s ask the elder brother to retract the decree."
"Although the Emperor’s word is final, I am his brother. As long as you come with me, he will surely agree."
Yun Wanyao: "..."
No!!!
Little Sister already said their engagement was inauspicious, that he and she clash in fate. This marriage caused the whole family to have headaches; now that it’s finally broken off, how can it be reconciled?
Besides, in the Emperor’s eyes, she was willing to go to lengths, even seducing, to have it dissolved.
Now, as soon as the royal decree is issued, to immediately regret it—wouldn’t the Emperor think she was merely toying with him the night before?
