“Yes, how could Grandpa tolerate me, a bastard, occupying the position of the eldest legitimate sister of the Shangguan family for so long?” Mo Shisheng chuckled and continued, “Since I am not a child of the Shangguan family, wouldn’t Shangguan Qi’s death make Grandpa hate me even more?”
"Smack!"
Shangguan Leiting raised his whip and lashed it hard across Mo Shisheng's fair and beautiful profile.
"You're nothing but a bastard! You killed Qi'er, you killed my own granddaughter! If it weren't for my son, you deserve to die a million times over!"
Shangguan Lei sneered, a single tear streaming from his murky eyes. "You truly deserve to die! You damned bastard, not only are you alive, but you also caused the death of my own granddaughter! You and your mother are both vile witches who deserve a terrible death! Vile witches!"
Mo Shisheng thought she was invulnerable and could endure any pain, but it was really hard to bear when her loved ones said such hurtful things.
Mo Shisheng slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. "So, does Grandpa want me to die now?"
"You'll die a horrible death! How could I let you off so easily!"
Shangguan Leiting said fiercely to Mo Shisheng, "Once my son is rescued, I will make you pay for all the grievances and harm my son has suffered!"
"I hope Grandpa won't regret it."
Mo Shisheng slowly closed her eyes, seemingly exhausted. Thinking that Ming Beiya hadn't been able to find her for so long, he probably didn't expect that she had been captured by Shangguan Leiting. As she thought about this, her head tilted slightly, and she fell into a deep sleep.
...
It rained heavily at noon, but Ming Beiya still had to go to Mo Shisheng's room to look for clues every day, since she disappeared in her own room!
When he stepped outside into the yard, he noticed a drag mark on the ground washed by the rain. Ming Beiya's heart sank, and a suspicion was amplified in his mind.
He remembered that Mo Shisheng had told him that Shangguan Leiting's attitude towards her had suddenly become distant. Moreover, Mo Shisheng was also suspicious of her own background, so if it was Shangguan Leiting who was behind it, then it was indeed possible to do so without anyone noticing.
Ming Beiya turned around and went back to Mo Shisheng's room. He walked straight to the bedside and pulled out the cage from under the bed.
Huang had been kept under the bed in complete darkness. Suddenly, the cage was pulled out, and Huang, now seeing the light again, moved its three-lobed mouth uneasily, its red eyes fixed on the cold and beautiful man.
Tell me, where is Ah Sheng?
The man's voice was deep and imposing, carrying an irresistible pressure, and the temperature around him suddenly dropped several degrees.
A glint of disdain flashed in Huang's red eyes, and his three-lobed mouth moved slightly. Although he didn't make a sound, Ming Beiya could understand him.
His stunningly handsome face was gradually covered in silver frost, his thin, crimson lips curving slightly, his eyes devoid of warmth. "Having fallen to this state, you still dare to negotiate with me."
Huang wasn't afraid of him. Its three-lobed mouth moved again, and its chubby body trembled slightly, looking relaxed and content.
Ming Beiya glanced at him indifferently, "If you utter another word, I'll send you to the Demon Realm."
Upon hearing this, the chubby yellow body in the cage trembled, and its three-lobed mouth stopped moving, instantly freezing in place. It knew that Ming Beiya was absolutely capable of doing what it said.
Therefore, it dared not continue to provoke Ming Beiya's patience. It gently moved its three-lobed mouth and told Ming Beiya everything it knew without hiding anything.
