Volume 1: Yun Family Has a Daughter Chapter 6: Did You Forget to Bring That Face of Yours?
It was night, in the capital city, in a certain magnificent and majestic mansion with a strict layout, where an aura of dominance was evident, a conversation could be heard coming from the study deep within:
"Is there a lead?" A low, magnetic male voice rose from the shadows.
The candlelight in the room flickered, and a tall figure with a chiseled profile was vaguely visible in the backlight. Just this side face alone could reveal that this person had an extraordinary appearance, not something ordinary people could match!
"Returning to Your Majesty, I am incompetent and unable to find anyone. The whereabouts of Feng Yu is unknown! Please, Your Majesty, forgive my crime!"
In the center of the study, a figure in black clothes knelt on the ground, with a black cloth covering his face, revealing only a pair of ruthless eyes. His palm was slightly damp, betraying his tension.
"You are indeed incompetent, two years have passed and you can't even find a single person! I'll give you three more months, if you still don't have any news about Feng Yu and that girl, then you don't need to appear in front of me again! I won't raise useless people!"
A slightly raised tone of voice indicates that the speaker is extremely dissatisfied with this result.
"Yes, I accept the punishment! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy!" The shadow let out a slight sigh of relief and respectfully saluted the monarch with an incredibly swift motion, disappearing in an instant.
The person behind the desk turned around, revealing a man wearing a majestic purple robe, standing out from the crowd with an extraordinary nobility. His facial features were chiseled and handsome, with sharp angles and piercing eyes that seemed to see right through you. The entire demeanor exuded an aura of a king who commanded awe, unintentionally making others feel oppressed.
If Mo Mo were here right now, she would definitely be shocked by his stunning beauty, and then immediately turn around and run away, because this person is actually the one she robbed at Gu Yun Temple that day!
Beichen Ye looked at the candle flame jumping continuously on his desk, his face was unpredictable, only his tightly pursed lips revealed his extremely bad mood!
It's been two years since he was defeated by a little girl, and at the time, he thought his life was over. But unexpectedly, that little girl only came to rob him of his money and goods, which were just material possessions and could be lost without any harm. What was unforgivable was that she not only stripped him of his clothes and humiliated him but also stole Feng Yu, making him the laughing stock of that demon, causing him to lose all face!
What's even more infuriating is that I originally thought it would be easy to find that little nun, but after sending people to search through all the households around Gu Yun Temple, that stinky little nun seemed to have vanished into thin air, without even leaving a shadow! Even when I discreetly asked Master Kong Fang, I didn't get the answer I wanted.
If it weren't for hearing that night that the imperial grandmother was critically ill and rushing back to the capital, he would have dug three feet into the ground to find that "culprit"!
"You'd better pray that I don't find you, little girl. If I do, I'll cut off your sharp claws and pluck out all the thorns on your body! I'll make you wish you were dead!"
In the quiet and empty study, only Beichen's angry and fierce words kept echoing...
But Si Meng Ge was chatting with Wu You when Mo Mo suddenly shivered, her back chilled to the bone. She thought it was just the cold of the night, but didn't know that someone had already set their sights on her...
The next day, Momo got up refreshed and tidy, and went with Wuyou to pay respects to Old Master and Beautiful Woman.
Yun Zhan went to court early in the morning, and Tong Shi saw her daughter come to pay respects so early, she was very happy, but also worried that her daughter didn't sleep well. Seeing Momo's energetic appearance, she finally put her mind at ease.
The mother and daughter were just about to sit down for breakfast when they saw the senior maid, Xia Lian, come in to report that Second Miss Yunyue had arrived to pay her respects.
Tong Shi hastily ordered Xia Lian to call Yun Yue in.
Yun Yue walked into the house with her head down, followed closely by her personal maid Bi Lu, who was carrying a red lacquer food box.
After paying respects to the Tong family, she saw Mengmeng was also there and hurriedly bowed her head in greeting. Mengmeng seeing this stood up and calmly returned a courtesy, but secretly wondered what scheme her inconsistent sister was cooking up again.
"Early this morning, Yue'er specially made silver ear red date glutinous rice porridge for her mother. She hopes that her mother won't dislike it and will try some to see if it's to her taste. If not, Yue'er will make adjustments! And if sister is willing to give face, please also try some, hoping that sister won't dislike it either!"
Yun Yue hung her head low, still with a gentle and timid appearance, and as soon as she finished speaking, her eyes turned red.
What's with the pitiful look on your face? Who are you trying to fool? If I didn't know better, I'd think Mother was bullying you! Mu Mu thought to herself, she really couldn't muster up any good feelings towards this scheming younger sister of hers.
"Come here, child! There's no need to be so polite with your mother. You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Let's have a meal together, the three of us!"
Tong Shi smiled and hastily invited Yun Yue to sit down, also instructing Xia Lian to add another bowl and chopsticks.
Yun Yue saw the situation and quickly took out a double-layered celadon bowl from the food box, filled with porridge. As she passed by Mo Mo's side, something unexpected happened - her foot seemed to be tripped by something, her body stumbled, and she almost fell to the ground, with the scalding silver ear porridge about to spill all over Tong Shi's body...
Tong Shi couldn't dodge in time, and just as the porridge was about to splash onto her face, she was startled and only felt a flash before her eyes. When she came to, she heard a crisp sound and saw Wu You blocking in front of her, knocking the bowl of porridge out of the way. She couldn't help but pat her chest, looking at Yun Yue who had fallen to the ground with a mixture of shock and suspicion.
Yun Yue, who had fallen to the ground, witnessed Wu You's incredibly swift movements and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Seeing Tong Shi unscathed, she felt increasingly irritated!
Yun Yue walked in, and Mo Mo and Wu You immediately became vigilant, staring at her every move. Although they felt that Yun Yue's early morning flattery was not quite right, they didn't expect that she would dare to do such a thing under the eyes of so many people!
"Sister, why do you want to trip up your younger sister? Yesterday's matter was the aunt's fault. The younger sister has come today to apologize and make amends by cooking congee. Even if you don't forgive the aunt or give her face, it's not right to trip up your younger sister, almost scalding Mother!"
Yun Yue's face was filled with pain as she looked at Mo Mo, her voice trembling with sobs as she exclaimed, as if Mo Mo had done something terribly wrong!
Dumbfounded, she listened to Yunyue's words that were upside down and extremely shameless, really wanting to rush up and grab her collar to ask: Are you coming without your face? Otherwise, how could you say such shameless things?
