Mu Chunxi gripped the scabbard beside her tightly, gritted her teeth, and said coldly, "There's chaos outside tonight. My father was worried about you and sent me to ask you something. I didn't expect you to be so rude!"
After saying that, Mu Chunxi turned around and quickened her pace towards the mansion, seemingly feeling somewhat guilty.
As Mu Chenshuang watched Mu Chunxi's retreating figure, her gaze deepened, and she became even more suspicious of Mu Chunxi's blatant surveillance of her.
She couldn't help but wonder to herself: Whom do you really obey?
Back in her room, Mu Chenshuang pondered the matter and decided to ask Feng Ji about Mu Chunxi the next day.
If Mu Chunxi really had a connection with Fu Junheng before, but the two deliberately pretended not to know each other in front of her, then Feng Ji would definitely know the situation.
Just as Mu Chenshuang was preparing to go to bed, Lord Mu and Lu Wei had their biggest argument and confrontation in history inside the room.
"My lord, why are you so stubborn? Isn't the case of the Prince of Libei the final proof?"
Lu Wei's anxiety and concern were genuine. She looked at Lord Mu with worry and urgency and said, "Although I am now just a commoner, I can still see things clearly."
In her haste, Lu Wei spoke without thinking, and sure enough, as soon as she said that, Lord Mu's face darkened.
In Lord Mu's view, Lu Wei was taking the opportunity to hint to him that she was originally a subordinate of the Chengtianjian.
Now, in Lord Mu's eyes, Lu Wei's identity has been revealed. He looked at Lu Wei with some disappointment, and at that moment, countless scenes of Lu Wei accompanying him in the past flashed through his mind.
Back then, he might have been able to sense some of Lu Wei's sincerity, but now he even began to doubt that Lu Wei had been lying to him from beginning to end, without a trace of sincerity.
Thinking of this, Lord Mu's disgust and rejection of Lu Wei reached its peak. He glared angrily, pulled Lu Wei's hand away from his, and made no attempt to hide the disgust in his eyes.
Lu Wei, who was almost pushed and nearly stumbled and bumped into the table, was stunned when she saw the look of disgust on Lord Mu's face. She slowly stood up while holding onto the edge of the table, but for a moment she suddenly didn't know what to say.
"You seem to know a lot about the affairs of the Imperial Observatory and the palace..." Lord Mu paused, then asked in a cold and emotionless tone, "What was your purpose in coming to my side in the first place?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Wei's eyes widened in astonishment, her heart sank as if she were about to collapse, and even every pore on her body exuded a terrifying chill.
“My lord, I…” Lu Wei understood that Marquis Mu now fully knew his true identity.
Thinking about how she had been caught between the Jingbian Marquis's mansion and the Chengtianjian for so many years, carefully and painstakingly managing things, deviating from her identity as a simple Chengtianjian spy, it was all because she had truly fallen in love with the man before her.
But now, seeing the man's gaze filled with disgust, contempt, suspicion, and hostility, Lu Wei felt her heart being violently clenched and torn apart.
It was as if countless grievances had accumulated in my heart, withering away at this moment, and suddenly my eyes were blurred with tears.
But when Lord Mu saw her like this, he felt even more disgusted. He was sure that Lu Wei was using the same trick she used to play the weak and helpless in front of him, trying to win his sympathy with tears.
