Chapter 1265 - 1271: Exposure (6)
He said with a cold smile, "I remember the day you first entered the mansion, you even suggested beating Wang Cai to death with a stick. Now how come you trust him so much? That bracelet is expensive; how could you trust him to sell such a valuable item?"
Du Wanqing said sorrowfully, "I know he isn’t reliable, but I had no choice. I don’t know anyone else, so I had to let him do it."
While they were speaking, Yingyu came to report, "Young Master, Ying Tianfu has sent Wang Cai back. He’s waiting outside the second gate!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Zili gritted his teeth and said, "Bring him in. I want to interrogate him myself."
Hearing this, Du Wanqing trembled, her face unnaturally pale with scratches covering it. Standing by her side, Old Lady Zhang was even more frightened, trembling ceaselessly and barely able to stand.
Mo Zili gave Du Wanqing a cold glance, sneered lightly, and walked towards the courtyard.
As soon as Mo Zili left, Old Lady Zhang, overwhelmed with despair, said, "Miss, what should we do? That boy Wang Cai will definitely confess everything. Please think of something!"
Du Wanqing, with a pale face, murmured, "Heaven does not favor me. Who would have thought that a dozen men couldn’t kill one person and even let her be captured alive?"
"Ah, Miss, stop saying these useless things. What should we do now? Ah! I am suffering because of you!" Old Lady Zhang, anxious like an ant on a hot pan, paced endlessly around the room, having thrown all decorum to the back of her mind.
Du Wanqing clenched her fists and said, "There’s no other way, just insist that the bracelet was with you to sell. Otherwise, both of us will have no place to bury our corpses!"
