In the blink of an eye, Ling Yongnian's clothes, as if they had been blown by a strong wind for a long time, tore open in strips, exposing his upper body.

Blood was still flowing from his chest, but judging by its length, it was no more than an inch long, and the wound was probably less than an inch deep.

Princess Ning'an looked at the blood on Mo Yunzhao's hands, and then thought of the pool of blood that had stained Ling Yongnian's white robe earlier.

Her mind went blank for a moment.

"Third brother, you..."

Furthermore, these Mo sisters are truly too audacious. They disregard the difference between men and women and just tear people's clothes like that... It's really...

I kind of like it.

Mo Yunzhao raised an eyebrow and nodded. "Luckily, we discovered it quickly. If it had been a quarter of an hour later..."

"Poisonous?" Princess Ning'an exclaimed anxiously, "Will I die?"

Mo Yunzhao smiled: "If it had been a quarter of an hour later, the wound would have healed."

Mo Yunlan chuckled, then burst into unrestrained laughter.

Princess Ning'an, her face full of anxiety, was somewhat choked up, but after glancing at Ling Yongnian's wound, she couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

She believed Lord Mo's words.

Ling Yongnian, shirtless and sitting on the deck, was humiliated by their antics and laughter, his pale face turning a deep, embarrassed red.

How could he have known that Mo Yunzhao would be like this?

Does the Love Potion have absolutely no effect on her?

Logically, this shouldn't be the case; once she takes the medicine, she should fall head over heels for him.

The smell of the incense burner he added blood to today, his willingness to die for you, and the stimulation of fresh blood.

She could only love him to the bone, love him as if it were her life, but unfortunately...

Where exactly did things go wrong?

Mo Yunzhao didn't care whether he was embarrassed or not, and continued to expose him.

"Did the princess hear what he said before he fainted?"

The word "dizzy" made Princess Ning'an blush, since it was a fake dizziness.

"My third brother said he loves you, so it would be good for him to die in your hands?"

After repeating it, Princess Ning'an became unhappy, "Didn't you say you were going to apologize to Lord Mo? How did it turn into expressing your feelings, and... and..."

Thinking about what had just happened, she was too embarrassed to even speak.

Ling Yongnian stood up from the ground and admitted it frankly and generously.

"Yes, I apologized, but can't I express my feelings? I just like Mo Yunzhao, so what if this is all an act?"

He raised his foot, approaching Mo Yunzhao: "I just want to tell you that I'm willing to do anything, even lose face, to make you believe that I like you. Am I wrong to like you?"

He lowered his head and asked Princess Ning'an, "Ning'an, was it wrong of me to like someone?"

“That’s right.” Princess Ning’an’s mind was still blank.

Mo Yunlan, furious, brandished her large cleaver, ready to strike. "What nonsense! Ling Yongnian, you already have Mo Bilian as your fiancée, who is A Zhao's second brother-in-law. Now you're confessing your feelings to her. How is A Zhao supposed to face this?"

Mo Yunzhao added casually, "It was a marriage bestowed by the Emperor. Are you implying that the Emperor randomly paired up the couple?"

Princess Ning'an frowned.

"And another thing, His Highness the Crown Prince is fond of the City Lord, and everyone in both cities knows this. Is Young Master Ling trying to steal the City Lord from His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Fu Liu arrived just in time and delivered the finishing blow.

Princess Ning'an's expression darkened. Her elder brother, the Crown Prince, was fond of Mo Yunzhao, and she had previously considered helping to match them up.

Ling Yongnian even had the urge to strangle someone.

"It's true that the Emperor bestowed the marriage upon us, and it's also true that His Highness the Crown Prince likes Mo Yunzhao. But is it okay for the Crown Prince to shamelessly fawn over her, but I'm not allowed to act in order to win her favor?"
