Volume 1: Yun Family Has a Daughter Chapter 20: Yun Mian's Fear

  Mo Mo held in her hand an invitation written by Bei Chen Ye, surprisingly inviting her to the Royal Horse Racing Stadium tomorrow. The reason was that she had been frightened yesterday, so he especially invited her to the stadium to calm down and relieve her fright!

  Are you kidding me? Screw that! Damn it, not only did I lose face so badly, but also being used by him, what a scam! Who knows if it's another conspiracy?

  It's unbelievable that you can come up with such a ridiculous excuse. If you really want to make amends, it would be better to give gold and silver instead!

  "Dad, tell me if I should go or not!"

  You'd better not say go! She's now afraid of seeing that guy.

  "Go anyway! A prince like him can personally send an invitation, if you don't go, it will only make people say that our General's Manor looks down on others!"

  After thinking for a moment, he replied.

  Momo thought carefully and felt that this was the reason.

  But if she accidentally exposed herself in front of that guy, she would really die without a place to be buried. Damn it, if only she had known his identity earlier, even if he beat her to death, she wouldn't have been so reckless as to rob him and strip him naked.

  If she were treated that way, she would definitely find the person and flay them alive! Bei Chenye is obviously not a good guy, if he finds out...

  Mo's heart chilled, her body involuntarily shook, and her mind was filled with the image of herself lying on the ground, battered and bruised, barely breathing!

  "Ah!"

  Mo Mo suddenly thought of something and let out a loud cry of terror, startling Cloud War and Guan Ping in the room.

  Ignoring her father's anxious cries behind her, Momo ran as fast as if she was being chased by an evil spirit, all the way back to Si Momo Pavilion.

  "Don't worry, don't worry..."

  As soon as she arrived at Si Miao Ge, Mo Mo shouted out Wu You. Seeing Wu You poking her head out, she quickened her pace and rushed forward, grabbing Wu You with one hand and dragging her into the inner room.

  "Don't worry, where's that jade?"

  Mo Mo hastily asked.

  "It's done."

  Worry-free saw Mu Mu's forehead full of big sweat, her expression flustered, knowing that the matter was important, and she didn't waste any words. Of course, she never wasted words anyway.

  "Where did it go?"

  Mo Mo's face turned even paler upon hearing this.

  "Lucky Pawnshop on East Street in Dongshi."

  Mo Mo listened and immediately wanted to rush out, but was pulled back by Wu You.

  "What's wrong with you, Mo?"

  He had never seen her so flustered and couldn't help but worry.

  "It's all over, this time it's really all over!"

  There's nothing I can do, so I'll just try to comfort her and tell her not to be so scared.

  At last, Mo Mo gradually calmed down under Wu You's soothing comfort.

  "Don't worry, I've made a big mess!"

  ……

  Mo Mo slowly told Wu You everything about how they robbed Bei Chen Ye two years ago, without leaving out a single word.

  Carefree quietly listened, when heard Momo stripped off Yu Wang's clothes and tied him to a tree, the corners of his eyes twitched, his icy face almost cracking!

  Suppressing the urge to beat him up, he calmly said with a cold expression: "If one day you end up dead on the streets, that's what you deserve!"

  Carefree...

  Blinking big eyes, pitifully looking at Worry-free.

  That day, let Wu You pawn the jade pendant, Wu You also said that this jade pendant is a top-grade Tianyang sheep fat jade, worth a city, and the craftsmanship of this jade is exquisite, extremely delicate, not from the folk. At that time, she didn't believe it, but was persuaded by Wu You to pawn it. Thinking about it now, I really want to slap myself in the face twice.

  Unable to withstand her puppy-like eyes, he softened and said: "Now it's best to go to the Lucky Pawnshop. If the jade is still there, no matter what, we must buy it back and destroy it. If it has been sold, we must find it back. If King Yu already knows... you... you're done for!"

  After hearing Wu You's words, Mo Mo was so angry that she was speechless! If she had known earlier that the jade might expose her, she would have absolutely not gambled it away!

  She's now even thinking that Yu Wang invited her to the horse farm tomorrow, isn't it because he already knows, and wants her to have an accident at the horse farm, best if she dies from a fall there, then he can say it was an accident, and he won't have to bear the consequences of murder...

  For now, I can only go to Jixiang Pawnshop and take a look, hoping that the jade is still there...

  Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel!

  She sat in the teahouse across from the Lucky Pawnshop, her eyes lifeless, on the verge of tears but unable to cry.

  "Maybe things aren't so bad after all!"

  Worry-free saw that the normally cheerful Mu Mu now looked like an eggplant that had been frostbitten, and couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart. She rarely spoke in a soft, gentle voice to comfort him.

  "You also heard what that person said, the jade pendant was bought by someone yesterday. According to the boss's words, that person must be one of King Yu's men, otherwise, they wouldn't have inquired so carefully!"

  Although Mo was anxious, she didn't lose her composure. Perhaps Yu Wang hadn't found out yet, but since he knew everything about Qing Wang's actions like the back of his hand, there must be a considerable force behind him, and it was only a matter of time before he discovered her.

  "Isn't he supposed to meet you at the horse track tomorrow? You can try to sound him out and see if the jade has fallen into his hands. If it has, you can probe further for his reaction; if not, we'll make private inquiries again. Besides, he may not necessarily know that the jade came from us."

  Actually, the last sentence was something Wu You didn't even believe herself. She knew more clearly than Mu Mu that this King had great abilities!

  Silently nodding, knowing there's no other way.

  ……

  The next morning, Mo woke up with two big black eye circles and listlessly went to Anhe Courtyard to pay respects to Lady Tong.

  Tong's family saw his daughter in this listless state, looking as if she was ill, and he couldn't help but feel distressed. He hastily ordered Xia Lian to go invite a doctor.

  Mo saw this and hastily stopped him, saying that mosquitoes had entered the mosquito net and he hadn't slept well.

  Tong carefully examined her and made sure her daughter was fine before putting her mind at ease.

  After having breakfast, Mo Mo bid farewell to Tong Shi and set off with Wu You.

  Tong's family knew about this matter early on and knew that it was Yu Wang who had invited his daughter, urging her to hurry up and go.

  Yesterday, she also saw King Yu, and felt that King Yu was elegant and extraordinary, with a noble demeanor. She often heard her husband say how talented King Yu was, and if their daughter could gain King Yu's favor, it would be a good thing.

  If Momo knew her mother's thoughts at this time, she would definitely be anxious to hit the wall. She couldn't even hide from Wang at this time, how could she take the initiative to send herself up?

  Before she could even leave, she saw Yun Yue, who was meticulously dressed, walking towards her from a distance...

  Digression

  Cough cough, what fun things will happen tomorrow?
