YM778.TV Chapter 298
A Blunder (2)
Mo Linyuan’s words left her speechless.
“Hm, unless… were you lying about your previous statement?”
Faced with Mo Linyuan’s sudden accusation, Zhao Mingyu had no way of taking back her previous words. Now, Mo Linuan took her words and was using it against her!
It would seem, she had underestimated this man!
Mo Linyuan, noticing her silence, chuckled lightly, “You should head back. Don’t forget that no one can spit false sincerity in front of me… After all, I am nothing like the Zhao Country’s monarch…”
His explicit warning made Zhao Mingyu grind her teeth angrily. She remained silent as she retreated respectfully. But her heart held resentment that grew bigger and bigger!
She has made a blunder. Having rushed to make these claims, it was no wonder Mo Linyuan became suspicious of her. She was too impatient.
Indeed, Mo Linyuan was more difficult to deal with than she had thought. Next time, she has to be extra careful!
After Zhao Mingyu departed, Mo Linyuan continued to read the book he had. Although he knew that Ye Mu was spying on him, he didn’t care. His suspicions were confirmed that Ye Mu, though she herself is unaware, actually cared for him with more than that of a friendly feeling.
Now that Zhao Mingyu has left, that little girl probably went to follow her.
With this in mind, Mo Linyuan held a light smirk as he continued to evaluate the account books.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mo Linyuan had deduced correctly: Ye Mu was indeed following Zhao Mingyu. Zhao Mingyu was muttering about Mo Linyuan under her breath. The moment she returned, she must find someone to deliberate with! She needs to know how best to retaliate!
On her way back, everyone seemed to be greeting Zhao Mingyu in advance as they stared holes into her. Right then, as Zhao Mingyu returned their stare, she felt this palace was truly bizarre. Thankfully, she had a very good memory and knew where she was currently dwelling.
The Zhao Country’s minister was super worried as Zhao Minyu was gone for so long. The moment he saw her, he exclaimed,
“Princess! Where have you been?”
Zhao Mingyu rushed to silence him. Once she saw that no one around overhead him, she then replied firmly,
“I was talking to Mo Linyuan just now!”
“What?” The minister couldn’t believe it, “How were you able to meet him? There are so many imperial guards in this palace.. And yet you…”
Zhao Miingyu frowned. Right then, she exuded her imposing presence as the eldest princess, which was completely different from the aura she gave off in front of Mo Linyuan.
“It’s not important how I was able to meet him. What’s important is, I have already exposed my identity as princess to Mo Linyuan. I also told him that I didn’t want any fam, didn’t want to be spoiled, and asked that he give me an opportunity to remain with him… Yet what I can’t believe is that he actually refused my request!”
“What? But… Princess… Why didn’t you discuss this with us first! But truly, how could that Mo Linyuan refuse you? Could it be that you’ve accidentally revealed the truth, and so he refused you?”
Zhao Mingyu recalled Mo Linyuan’s last warning statement and scowled, “That is a possibility. I was too impatient. Had I known Mo Linyuan was this difficult to handle, I would have been more cautious.”
After she finished recounting her story, the whole room held a hushed silence.
“So, what now?” the ministored asked, “If Mo Linyuan truly won’t marry you, then we cannot accomplish our mission…”
This, Zhao Mingyu was well aware of. She grimaced, “Don’t worry, we still have time to think of a solution. I don’t believe there is such a thing as an impenetrable man in this world. Even if he already has a beloved, there has to be a weakness…”
The minister also agreed, “Princess is truly brilliant. Your Highness will definitely come up with a solution. I will follow the princess’s lead, and act according to Your Highness’s order!”
Zhao Mingyu nodded, “Evidently, there is fault in the information you guys provided. Mo Linyuan is not the only royal family member remaining. The Mo Country also has another royal family member, a princess. Didn’t you guys know anything about her?”
