Her pale face looked slightly rosy. It seemed that the pills she took were working.
Qian’er, on the other hand, was vulnerable, hurt, and pregnant. Between the two of them, she looked more like the ill one.
“How can I be happy when I have to give my blood to a white-eyed wolf once again?” Qian’er clenched her fists and told herself to stay calm.
She couldn’t lose her dignity. If she wasn’t scared of Lu Fenying, why should she be scared of Su Muwei?
But she was still vigilant. She feared that Su Muwei would suddenly collapse in front of her.
Su Muwei, however, stepped back and covered her chest with a heartbroken air. “So that’s what you think of me? I was very happy to learn that you came back, and I specifically came to visit you, but you’ve misunderstood me…”
She began to sob so hard that she could barely catch her breath.
Mo Qian’er didn’t say anything as she stood there. Looking at Su Muwei’s countenance and remembering Gu Bailu’s imitation of her, she couldn’t help but smile.
Princess Zi was right. Her crying was actually really fake, but Lu Fenying was willing to be tricked by it.
“You… You’re still not saying anything. You really think of me that way? I can’t live… How can I live on, knowing that you’ve misunderstood me? I won’t drink your blood anymore…” Su Muwei collapsed tearfully in her maid’s arms.
She trembled, as if she would die at any moment.
The maid quickly said, “Miss Qian’er, how can you do this to my lady? She kindly came here to visit you without consideration for her illness, yet you still threw your misunderstanding at her? Apologize to her now, or you will regret it when the crown prince arrives.”
Mo Qian’er frowned slightly. She was already ready to be misunderstood by Lu Fenying.
She would be no different from the old Mo Qian’er if she were to hold back after being scolded by a maid.
“Why should I apologize? I’m telling the truth. Don’t tell me you don’t know?” As if she didn’t understand, Mo Qian’er looked at the maid who was supporting Su Muwei.
Su Muwei had brought this maid over from the Su house. With Su Muwei’s backing, this maid had set Qian’er up so many times, and she had always been cocky.
“You! If you carry on like this and something happens to my lady, you won’t be able to pay for it even if you have ten lives.” The maid gestured at the guards who were escorting Su Muwei. “Catch her and send her to the crown prince.”
The guards had been instructed by Lu Fenying to listen to Miss Su on everything.
They soon charged forward and grabbed Mo Qian’er. Mo Qian’er’s hands hurt from being pulled, but her heart was full of hate.
She was about to rebel, when she heard footsteps in the distance, and she could tell that they belonged to Lu Fenying.
He was here, too. It seemed that she was doomed today.
She raised her head and looked at Su Muwei, who gave her a venomous, cocky smile as she rested her head on her maid’s shoulder.
Qian’er was furious. She was determined not to let things go Su Muwei’s way.
But what could she do? Everybody here worked for Su Muwei and would only speak for her. Besides, Lu Fenying wouldn’t believe Mo Qian’er even if there were eyewitnesses.
She didn’t know where Gu Bailu was, either.
She couldn’t count on anybody else now. She had to rely on herself.
What should she do?
Qian’er was slightly anxious as Lu Fenying’s footsteps drew closer. He should have entered the grove by now.
