186: 185.
It really hurts too damn much 186: 185.
It really hurts too damn much Ouyang Luoxi’s face darkened upon hearing this: “What do you mean by that, Miss?”
“I meant it literally.
Is the Crown Prince an idiot?
Can’t he understand such a simple sentence?” Leng Xiye said sarcastically.
“Ladies, even if you are friends of my sister Jiuli, you cannot insult the current Crown Prince at will.
Please don’t forget, this is the territory of Fengyun City within the Imperial Capital of Fengyun Country.
I advise you both to be cautious with your words!” Mo Jiuqi took a step forward and politely warned.
“Heh, so what?
I dare to take responsibility for what I say.
Can you, Eldest Lady Mo?” Leng Xiye looked at Mo Jiuqi with a smile that was not quite a smile and asked.
“What am I afraid of?” Mo Jiuqi quietly asked, on her guard.
“Really?
Eldest Lady Mo, just now you said that you and my master Mo Jiuli have a deep sisterly bond.
Would you dare to swear in front of the people of Fengyun City that you have never harmed your sister Mo Jiuli in any way, and if you have, may you be struck by lightning?
Do you dare?” Leng Xiye said lightly with a smile on her stunning face.
Mo Jiuqi was stunned upon hearing this and fell silent…
How could she swear?
Of course, she didn’t dare to.
For so many years, she had wished that the trash would die.
Why was it that she had the best talent, but she was just an adopted daughter?
Why was she the noble eldest lady, and the trash was born as the Princess Consort?
So ever since she understood things, she wished there was only one daughter in the Mo Residence, without the existence of that trash…
Now they wanted her to swear, did they really think she was a fool?
She had no desire to experience the power of an oath…
The three Mo Chenfeng brothers, after learning that it was the Crown Prince and Mo Jiuqi who almost killed Mo Jiuli five years ago, were extremely dissatisfied with the two.
Now that they saw Leng Xiye making things difficult for the two, the three brothers didn’t feel embarrassed but instead watched the scene with interest along with everyone else…
Upon seeing Mo Jiuqi lower her head and remain silent, Ouyang Luoxi knew why she couldn’t swear, but no one else did…
However, just because others knew didn’t mean the idiot knew!
After having her subordinates fetch an Alchemist, Situ Qian’s face was simply bandaged and she had taken quite a bit of elixir, finally returning to a somewhat normal state.
Seeing Mo Jiuqi rendered speechless by Leng Xiye, the young lady’s temper flared up again.
Looking at Mo Jiuqi, she shouted, “Miss Jiuqi, why are you so afraid of her?
You’ve already done more than enough for that…sister of yours.
What are you afraid of in taking an oath?
You haven’t done anything wrong, so just swear in front of us.
Let’s see what she can say then…”
At those words, Leng Xiye and Leng Canlei laughed.
Mo Jiuqi, however, put on a forced smile that looked worse than crying.
In her heart, she cursed Situ Qian to death.
She was such a fool, why did she have to butt in…
“Yes, yes, Eldest Lady Mo doesn’t look like that kind of person!
We support you, Eldest Lady, take the oath!”
“Yes, yes!
Eldest Lady, we support you, swear to show them!”
“Eldest Lady, take the oath and shut those two women’s mouths!”
After Situ Qian’s words fell, many people who liked Mo Jiuqi also joined in…
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuqi felt even more heartbroken for Situ Qian.
She blamed the stupid woman and those who were egging her on.
How dare they support such nonsense?
Let them swear and see if they dared.
She must have had a brain problem and wanted to be struck by lightning if she was so dumb as to swear…
“I don’t need to prove the bond between my sister and me to any of you!
In the end, the issue today originated from the Situ’s Mansion and the General’s Mansion!
Since the two young ladies are my sister’s friends, you can go to our house and wait for her.
Otherwise, I hope you don’t interfere in this anymore!” Mo Jiuqi paused, then lifted her head to look at Leng Xiye with an obvious warning in her eyes.
However, Leng Xiye acted as if she didn’t understand the meaning at all, saying, “You don’t dare to swear?
If you don’t dare to swear, just forget about it.
Generally, people with a guilty conscience are indeed afraid of swearing!” After finishing, she looked at Situ Qian, whose face had completely changed, and said, “My temper is not good, so you’d better control your mouth!
Don’t let me hear anything that I shouldn’t.
Go on with your calculations!”
Situ Qian looked stunned.
Did this woman mean for her to continue calculating?
With her here, would she dare to continue?
“What are you looking at?
Continue when I tell you to!
Aside from my master, the rest of the Mo Family has nothing to do with me!” Leng Xiye shouted angrily at the bewildered Situ Qian.
“Oh.
I understand!” Situ Qian subconsciously replied.
It was only after she finished speaking that she realized what she had said, feeling a little depressed and not daring to look at Leng Xiye.
“Miss Situ, as I said earlier, the person you are looking for is my sister Mo Jiuli, but she is not currently at the residence…” Mo Jiuqi immediately looked at Situ Qian and said.
She didn’t care who Situ Qian was looking for.
Her goal was to make Situ Qian and even the people from the Artifact Refining Guild bear a grudge against Mo Jiuli…
“Jiuqi, what are you talking about?
Jiuli never came back.
How could she have offended Miss Situ and others?” Ouyang Luoxi, who knew Mo Jiuqi’s thoughts very well, said with some displeasure.
“Brother Luoxi, everything I said is true!
If my little sister had not returned, how could the Emperor grant a marriage between her and Brother Luoxi without reason…” Mo Jiuqi said with her head down in grievance.
“Crown Prince, this matter was personally told to me by my elder sister Shiyun, so there can be no mistake!
If you don’t admit it, my Sister Shiyun and her master will come to Fengyun City for the Beast Tamer Conference in a few days.
At that time, I will bring them to the Mo Residence to seek justice.
Today, I’ll let it be for the Crown Prince’s sake!
Let’s go…” Situ Qian looked at Leng Xiye somewhat timidly, and then said to the Crown Prince.
After saying this, she left hastily with the remaining guards of the Situ Mansion.
First, she was somewhat afraid of Leng Xiye and Leng Canlei; second, her face was so damn sore…
As Mo Jiuqi watched the people from the Situ Mansion leave inexplicably, she was a little slow to react.
How could this dumb woman just leave like that?
Was the frame-up she had set against Mo Jiuli successful or not?…
However, when she thought about what Situ Qian had said before leaving, she had a plan in mind, so she didn’t dwell on it any longer…
Looking up at the Crown Prince beside her, Mo Jiuqi realized that he seemed somewhat anxious, glancing through the crowd as if he was looking for someone…
“Brother Luoxi, what are you looking for?”
“Jiuqi, did you see those two ladies just now?
How did they disappear in the blink of an eye?
Do you know them both?” Ouyang Luoxi asked eagerly.
Following his gaze, Mo Jiuqi noticed that the two women had indeed disappeared.
Considering they managed to vanish so quietly right under their noses, it showed just how strong they were…
“I don’t know them.
Today is the first time I’ve seen them!” Mo Jiuqi concealed the cold light in her eyes and replied innocently.
