Chapter 1260 - 1266: Exposure (1)
Xiang Yun found herself pinned under Mo Zili, feeling her clothes being stripped from her body by an external force, her heart filled with hatred, pain, and humiliation as tears raced to escape her eyes. At that moment, she desperately wished that the person who had saved her the previous day would appear again to rescue her from this place.
Although Mo Zili saw her tears, his heart ached as well, perhaps even more than hers. However, in order to extinguish the part of her that wanted to leave him, he had to harden his heart and ignore her tears.
As soon as she became his, she wouldn’t be able to make a fuss anymore. It would be best if he succeeded in one shot, and she would obediently follow him home. Although this method was a bit despicable, there was no other way; had she not stubbornly pressed for a divorce, he would not have resorted to this!
Amidst the struggle, the voice of the housekeeper’s wife, Lady Su, suddenly rang out from outside, "Young Master Li, an officer from Ying Tianfu has arrived and says there is a very important matter that requires your immediate attention!"
Before Mo Zili could respond, the door of the side room burst open, and Second Lady Bai charged out like a whirlwind, scolding, "You damn old woman, what’s all this noise about? Can’t you see that your master is busy? Get out of here!"
Lady Su, scolded, shrank back her shoulders timidly and said, "Madam, the officials from Ying Tianfu have arrived. They said there’s a very important matter and must speak directly with Young Master Li."
Lady Bai asked, "What matter?"
Looking toward the room, Lady Su replied, "The two officers said that the group of bandits has confessed. It was Young Master Li’s concubine who instructed them to attempt the assassination of Young Madam. Now they need instructions from Young Master Li on how to proceed to the mansion to detain and question the suspect!"
Inside the room, though Mo Zili was on top of Xiang Yun, he slowed down when he heard the commotion in the courtyard. At the moment he heard Lady Su mention ’it was Young Master Li’s concubine who instructed them, and now they are awaiting instructions from Young Master Li to detain and question the suspect,’ he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, completely stunned.
