‘It should be without doubt!’ It seems these two have genuinely developed feelings. How much? Can it be salvaged?
‘Was everything part of their plan?’ Mo Shuihen’s face turned ashen, coldly saying, ‘Deception! I will make her know the consequences of her actions!’
‘Uh…’ Now I understand why Tang Yingying chose Mo Shuihen. What a personality!
‘How ridiculous! I’ve already found it laughable being chased by a young girl, and now I discover it was all an elaborate setup. Heh…’ Bai Yuqing laughed self-mockingly, raising his eyes to ask, ‘Now that you’ve discovered their identities, what do you plan to do?’
‘For now…'”
We don’t want to alert them prematurely.” Saying this was difficult, essentially asking them to pretend they know nothing. Seeing their terrified expressions, I added, “We won’t force you. I know this is very difficult.”
“Okay!”
I didn’t expect them to agree so unanimously.
“If we can eliminate Right Wing Hall earlier, we can get the ‘Undying Ice Flower’ sooner,” Mo Shuihen said, her eyes turning sinister. “She deceived me, so I’ll make her taste deception!”
“Indeed, make them feel the same!” Bai Yuqing added with a wicked smile.
Apparently, men can be terrifying when angry, driven by a strong desire for revenge. Thankfully, I haven’t offended such people.
Staring blankly, I wondered if this was real. Their progress has been incredibly swift!
“Xiao Ai, what exactly did you tell them that day? It seems counterproductive,” the little rascal asked, bewildered.
“Didn’t expect it to be this dramatic. Sigh…” I shook my head, uncertain of their ultimate fate.
Half a Month Later
Huo Lingyun or Chi Yan had been gone for half a month, only saying he encountered Qiao Ruofeng and discovered interesting matters that need handling together. Could they have found something about the Right Wing Hall?
As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the two inseparable figures.
“Yingying, your hairstyle is special today!” Mo Shuihen laughed lightly, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Tang Yingying.
“This?” Tang Yingying tossed her hair confidently, “I find it convenient. Other styles are too cumbersome!”
“Not many women are as straightforward as you,” Mo Shuihen said, a hint of mockery in his eyes.
“Do you like it?” Tang Yingying replied.
“What if I do? What if I don’t?” Mo Shuihen cunningly threw the question back at her.
“Mo Shuihen,” Tang Yingying stared at him seriously, “I! Tang Yingying like you!”
Mo Shuihen was momentarily stunned, then looked at her with deep affection, “Will you come back to Mo Island with me?”
“Uh…” Tang Yingying was taken aback, then smiled broadly, “Of course!”
“Really?” Mo Shuihen’s gaze trembled slightly, somewhat excited.
“I, Tang Yingying, always keep my word!”
“Won’t Young Master Tang have an opinion?” Mo Shuihen’s words carried a double meaning, but Tang Yingying didn’t think much of it.
“My big brother is very understanding. Don’t worry!”
Tang Yingying glanced at Mo Shuihen, sensing something unusual.
“Yingying,” Mo Shuihen suddenly embraced her, shocking both her and the onlookers. “Since we’re together, we must be honest, sharing life and death. Can you do that?”
“Of course!” Tang Yingying replied quickly.
“If you can, we’ll live and die together. If I betray you, I’ll die by your hand, and vice versa. How’s that?” Mo Shuihen spoke earnestly, a smile on his lips but with resolute eyes.
Tang Yingying half-lowered her gaze, contemplating, and after a moment, softly nodded. Her emotions seemed to cloud her judgment, overlooking his peculiar words.
“Good!” Mo Shuihen hugged her, appearing like a happy couple. However, their true emotions were visible only to those observing closely: Mo Shuihen’s expression was cold, hinting at suppressed anger, while Tang Yingying’s eyes displayed melancholy, lost in thought.
Shifting focus away from them, they quietly pulled Xie Ying from the bushes. Just as she was about to speak, they quickly silenced her and redirected her attention.
“Little girl, didn’t expect you’d learn to climb trees?” Bai Yuqing teased, playfully tapping Tang Xiaomeng’s head.
“Husband, don’t tap!”
It hurts,” Tang Xiaomeng pouted, gripping the tree trunk tightly.
“You’re afraid of pain?” Bai Yuqing deliberately tapped again, causing Tang Xiaomeng to cling to him. They both lost balance and fell from the tree.
In that instant, Bai Yuqing swiftly grabbed Tang Xiaomeng, becoming her human cushion.
“It must hurt a lot…” Xie Ying’s voice muffled the concern.
“Husband, are you okay? Does it hurt?” Tang Xiaomeng looked at Bai Yuqing with worry.
“Little girl, do you really want to be my wife?” Bai Yuqing’s gaze turned serious.
“Of course!” Tang Xiaomeng laughed innocently. “From the first moment I saw you, I decided you were my husband. I’ll follow you, knowing that one day you’ll love me.”
“Let it be today!”
“Eh…” Tang Xiaomeng was stunned.
“What?” Bai Yuqing gently touched her nose. She blushed, looking at him questioningly. Bai Yuqing helped her up, brushing off her clothes. “If you can do one thing, I’ll be your husband.”
“Really?” Tang Xiaomeng’s eyes widened in joy. “What is it? I’ll definitely do it!”
“Come back to Bermuda Island with me!”
“Just… that?” Tang Xiaomeng was puzzled.
“Don’t want to?” he asked, turning to leave.
“I want to!” Tang Xiaomeng rushed in front of him, nodding repeatedly.
“Good!” Bai Yuqing hugged Tang Xiaomeng, laughing eerily. Tang Xiaomeng’s expression was a mix of secret joy, melancholy, and helplessness. Seeing this, Xie Ying pulled them back into the house.
“What are they trying to do?” They couldn’t understand. Weren’t they supposed to be seeking revenge? Why did they seem so eager? Isn’t that playing right into their trap?
“You still don’t understand men!” Xie Ying smiled mysteriously. “They’re clever! They know what kind of revenge is best. Sometimes a trap can ensnare its creator, making them unaware of the danger while feeling secure.”
“Ugh… is it that complicated?” Is he saying the final winners will be those two men? I cannot agree; feelings are too uncertain! I’m afraid they might end up hurt.
“Madam, Young Master Tang has arrived!” Just as the servant announced, Tang Yiyou walked in. I hadn’t seen him for a while. Why this sudden visit? There must be a reason!
“Madam, it’s been a while, and you look in good spirits!” Tang Yiyou was smiling, but something in his eyes seemed less concealed.
“May I ask what brings you here today?” I asked after the maid served tea.
“It’s like this.
Tang Yiyou smiled apologetically. “I know my sister has been causing some trouble at the manor, and I want to apologize. I’ve come because my mother’s condition has worsened, and I’m here to take my two sisters back to Chiyan.”
Tang Yingying and Mo Sehen walked in, surprised to see Tang Yiyou. A look of understanding and worry crossed their faces when they heard about their mother.
“Yes, quickly call Xiaomeng. We’re leaving for Chiyan immediately!” Tang Yiyou commanded, causing Tang Yingying to tremble.
“Yes!” Tang Yingying glanced at Mo Sehen and hurried out.
“Madam, I won’t disturb you further. Farewell!” Tang Yiyou said meaningfully before leaving.
“Sehen… I…” Tang Yingying struggled to articulate her thoughts.
Mo Sehen replied, “If you’re worried, then go back!”
Tang Yingying took a deep breath and boarded the carriage.
“Husband, wait for my return!” Tang Xiaomeng said, acting clingy.
“Okay!” Bai Yuqing replied calmly, smiling softly.
“Xiaomeng!”
” Tang Yiyou urged, then turned to look at me with a fleeting, mischievous smile, “Madam, please go inside. I’m sure we’ll meet again soon!”
