“These people…”
Chu Yunmo pointed with her slender, fair hand to the unconscious people downstairs.
"It was me; they blocked my way."
"Blood Purple Rose" arrogantly raised her eyes, just in time to catch a glimpse of suspicion in Chu Yunmo's eyes, and thought to herself...
"Oh no! I forgot to tone down my sharpness."
So she immediately changed to the posture of a little woman who had suffered a great injustice, and held Chu Yunmo's hand coquettishly.
"Yunmo, you won't blame me, will you? I didn't bring any money today, and Mother wouldn't let me see you, but I miss you so much. Waaah..."
These past few days, I've been stuck in that dilapidated palace, I'm so bored! When I received your love letter, I was so happy, I was so excited that I forgot to bring any money, boohoo..."
To cooperate with the acting, "Xue Ziwei" forced out two tears and rested her head on Chu Yunmo's shoulder, perfectly portraying the image of a lovestruck young girl.
"How could that be? Yunmo misses Miss Han very much too. Didn't Miss Han notice that Yunmo has lost weight?"
Ever since hearing that Miss Han had married into the Longxuan Prince's Mansion, Yunmo has lost her appetite.
Chu Yunmo spoke sweet words in a gentle voice, but seemingly unintentionally she gently pulled away "Xue Ziwei's" hand that was gripping her clothes, flicked it away, and a flash of disgust crossed her eyes.
If she hadn't experienced the betrayal of her scumbag boyfriend in her past life, "Blood Purple Rose" would definitely think that Chu Yunmo was just a germaphobe who was afraid of wrinkling her clothes, but now she's not "love-struck," and it's clear that Chu Yunmo's feelings for the female lead aren't genuine.
Why did Chu Yunmo approach Han Ziwei? According to the servants, Han Ruyi introduced Chu Yunmo to Han Ziwei. What was her purpose? Was it to ruin Han Ziwei's reputation, or to kill her?
What does it taste like?
Sensing the scent of poison, "Han Ziwei" deduced that it was hidden in Chu Yunmo's sleeve, and a smirk appeared on her lips.
"Yunmo, I'm so cold, can we talk in the room?"
"Blood Purple Rose" was so eager to know about the deal between Chu Yunmo and Han Ruyi that she shivered and pretended to be cold.
In fact, she was indeed very cold, and her forehead began to burn. "Blood Purple Rose" regretted that she shouldn't have come today.
"Why is Miss Han's face so red? Has she caught a chill?"
Upon hearing what "Blood Purple Rose" said, Chu Yunmo also noticed "Blood Purple Rose's" abnormality and reached out to check its temperature.
"Miss Han has a fever." Yunmo carried Miss Han back to her room.
No, no need.
"Blood Purple Rose" wanted to refuse, but Chu Yunmo had already picked her up.
Listening to Chu Yunmo's gentle, water-like voice, and nestled in his warm embrace, if she hadn't experienced being deceived by a scumbag in her past life, she might have fallen for him too.
"Young master, the room has been prepared, and I have arranged for those people to move to other rooms."
After going upstairs, Mu Chun stepped forward to report, and Chu Yunmo hummed in response, then gave the order as if she had just remembered.
"By the way, the old ladies downstairs, Yang and the others, are too tired and have accidentally fallen asleep. Could you wake them up?"
Tell her that Miss Han's expenses will be deducted from my salary, Chu Yunmo. Also, I, Chu Yunmo, am not receiving guests today. I wish to have a chance to talk with Miss Han about our longing for each other.
Also, please get a doctor for Miss Han; she has a fever.
"yes."
Mu Chun was extremely respectful. "Xue Ziwei" glanced at him. He had wheat-colored skin, bright eyes, and light steps. "Xue Ziwei" narrowed her eyes. If she was not mistaken, this person should know martial arts.
To verify her guess, Xue Ziwei's snow-white arms climbed up "Chu Yunmo's" neck and whispered coquettishly.
"Yunmo, please put me down. There are strangers here, I..."
"It was Yunmo's oversight. She forgot that Miss Han is already married. Yunmo was being presumptuous."
"Blood Purple Rose" was gently placed on the ground by Chu Yunmo, and instantly fell towards Mu Chun as if she could not stand steadily.
"Miss Han, be careful."
Chu Yunmo swiftly grabbed "Blood Purple Rose" around the waist, while Mu Chun cautiously took several steps back.
"It seems these two are quite skilled. What are they doing infiltrating the brothel? How much silver did Han Ruyi spend to hire two such experts?"
Chu Yunmo exudes an air of nobility in her every gesture. What is her background?
Too many questions troubled "Blood Purple Rose," and her gaze became unfathomable.
"Thank you, Yunmo."
"Blood Purple Rose" nodded politely, and Chu Yunmo made a gesture towards "Blood Purple Rose".
"Miss Han, please..."
Outside the "Mandarin Duck Pavilion", Li Mufeng finally arrived.
"Your Highness, it's right here."
Zhao Hu pointed to the "Mandarin Duck Pavilion," and Li Mufeng walked in with a murderous aura.
"Oh, young master, a new face. Are you here looking for some fun?"
The madam, Granny Yang, had already woken up. When she saw Li Mufeng walk in, she greeted him warmly.
"Tell me, where is Chu Yunmo?"
Li Mufeng drew his sword and pointed it directly at Granny Yang's throat.
Inside the room, "Blood Purple Rose" lay on the couch, waiting for Chu Yunmo to pour her tea.
"How could this be? I clearly left that packet of powder here!"
Chu Yunmo searched her entire body but couldn't find the packet of medicine that Han Ruyi had given her. Helpless, she brewed a pot of tea and brought it over to "Xue Ziwei".
"Miss Han, please..."
"Yunmo, what were you looking for just now? Were you looking for this?"
"Blood Purple Rose" flicked the powder in her hand. A flash of panic crossed Chu Yunmo's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
"So it was with Miss Han? Yunmo was just about to give it to Miss Han."
"Give it to me?"
"Blood Purple Rose" was somewhat surprised, but Chu Yunmo nodded.
"This is the poison that Miss Han the Second gave to Yunmo. She asked Yunmo to put it in Miss Han the Eldest's teacup. Yunmo is not stupid. If Miss Han the Eldest dies here, the officials will definitely not let Yunmo off the hook. So Yunmo originally intended to give this poison to Miss Han the Eldest, but unexpectedly, Miss Han the Eldest took it beforehand. Well, that's fine."
Chu Yunmo was a seasoned veteran; her voice remained calm and composed, as if the matter was truly as she described and she had a clear conscience.
"Really? Yunmo didn't intend to kill me?"
She lifted Chu Yunmo's chin with her slender fingers and breathed softly into her ear.
Han Ziwei's flippancy momentarily stunned Chu Yunmo, but she quickly grabbed "Blood Ziwei's" wrist, took the initiative, leaned down and pinned her beneath her, and said ambiguously,
"Yunmo is deeply in love with Miss Han, how could she bear to kill her? The night is long, and Yunmo is quite lonely. Her virginity awaits Miss Han to deflower her. Why don't you stay here tonight, Miss Han?"
"Bang……"
A loud bang interrupted Chu Yunmo's heartfelt confession.
"Han Ziwei, how dare you betray me..."
Li Mufeng was so shocked by the scene before him that he could no longer speak. His trembling finger pointed at the two men, as if he wanted to tear them to pieces...
