Chapter 1249 - 1255: Suspicion (1)
Mo Zili sat there unperturbed as the tea splashed by Xiang Yun poured over his head. He didn’t dodge, nor did he even blink; he just let the burning hot tea stream down his pale cheeks, dampening his entire body.
On the side, Cui Wen, Cui Lu, and others were terrified. They hurried over to Xiang Yun’s side and shielded her with their bodies in case Mo Zili suddenly turned violent.
However, Mo Zili did not move. He sat there motionless, looking at Xiang Yun who was sobbing breathlessly, his face expressing pity. After a long time, he said in a low voice, "Xiang Yun, although it was an unintentional fault, I bear the major responsibility in this matter. I don’t blame you for being angry. If splashing water on me does not ease your anger, you can come and hit me, hit me until your anger subsides."
As Xiang Yun was crying, she heard what Mo Zili said, raised her head, and spoke vehemently, "Hit you? What’s the use? Even if I killed you, my nanny wouldn’t come back. So, I won’t hit you, and I won’t forgive you, either. Just go, don’t come back again..."
Mo Zili remained still, looking at Xiang Yun who was crying miserably, silent...
"Go away, just go—"
Seeing he hadn’t left, Xiang Yun grew even angrier. She grabbed the bowl and chopsticks and plates from the Table and started throwing them at him. Cui Wen and Cui Lu were afraid something might happen, and they quickly stopped her, some hugging her arms and others snatching away the bowl and chopsticks.
Anxious, Cui Lu said to Mo Zili, "Young Master, you should go back first. Young Madam has been ill these past days and only recently got a bit better. If you stay here, it could aggravate her illness, and if she falls ill again, what should we do?"
