Chapter 407 - See Mo Xuemin in the Sima Manor Again to Clear the Past (2/2)
Mo Xuetong could sense that the fire was burning her bones and skins fiercely. Outside, two people were laughing wildly and watching her writhing in the flames. At that moment, a person rushed into the flames. It was a man, and he held her out of the fire. The two people outside stopped their wild laugh, looked unbelievably at the person in front and exclaimed, “Mr. Qin!”
“Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin…” Mo Xuetong staggered back and held the trunk beside to calm herself down. She wondered if she had not died at that time in the flames. Some fragments flashed in her mind, and unexpectedly, they were about Qin Yufeng.
“Mo Xuetong, I curse you. Curse you not to die a natural death!” Mo Xuemin did not notice Mo Xuetong’s unusual expression, and just hid back frantically and scolded. “I will not give you the antidote. I will never give you the antidote.”
Mo Xuetong collected herself, looked calmly at Mo Xuemin and asked, “Do you have the antidote?” The corners of Mo Xuetong’s lips rose slightly. She seemed to smile, but the smile was alienated and indifferent. Her words sounded like a question but a negative remark actually.
The scolds ceased instantly. Mo Xuemin goggled at Mo Xuetong in horror, unable to say a word.
“With your character, if you do have the antidote, you have used it to coerce Yuran. Mo Xuemin, you don’t need to pretend to have it. Then, King Xuan’s Manor will not give consideration to you any longer. You just fend yourself from now on.” Mo Xuetong gave a faint smile, and then, the smile became pleasant when she looked at Mo Xuemin’s scared face. Mo Xuetong picked her skirt and left slowly.
Today, Mo Xuetong did not come to get the antidote. Mo Xuemin could not have the antidote. If she did have, Mo Xuetong’s mother would not have died so early. Although Mo Xuetong’s mother had had a firm death wish, Mo Xuetong was too young at that time. If given more time, Mo Xuetong’s secret guards were able to get the antidote from Auntie Fang’s hands.
However, Mo Xuetong’s mother still died at a young age!
This meant that Auntie Fang and her daughter did not have the so-called antidote at all. According to their dispositions, they were bound to put Mo Xuetong and her mother to death, so what use of antidote was?
Usually, Feng Yuran was deep and astute in schemes. But this time, he was cheated by Mo Xuemin. It was called “concern makes trouble”. Mo Xuetong did not let Feng Yuran caught by others. At this crucial moment, any details caught by others would lead to a fatal disaster.
Mo Xuemin’s frantic voice came behind.
“No, I have the antidote. I have! Mo Xuetong, save me! Take me out here! I will give you the antidote. I will give it to you right away…”
Mo Xuemin’s scream came in an entreating but crazy way, along with her recklessly rus.h.i.+ng figure. But this time, Mo Xuemin was kicked and rolled back again. She b.u.mped into the steps behind the tree, and blood sprang up from her forehead immediately.
Mo Xuemin covered the blood on the forehead and roared like a beast. “Sima Lingyun.”
At the gate of the courtyard, Sima Lingyun stood there with a blank look. He, who used to be a chivalrous gentleman, lost one of his eyes, and now, he stared at Mo Xuemin with ruthlessness in his only eye, as if he were about to eat her.
Mo Lan and Mo Ye came to help Mo Xuetong. Mo Xuetong did not throw a glance at him and walked past him slowly.
She once loved this person, and loved him with all her life. However, he and Mo Xuemin schemed her basely. After rebirth, Mo Xuetong was determined to wreak vengeance on him. But now, he had no trace in her heart. But for seeing him today, Mo Xuetong could not remember his face at all!
But it was just a pity that his final expression fixed in her mind was a screwy smile.
“Consort Xuan!” Sima Lingyun’s timid voice came behind.
Mo Xuetong paused for a moment, and took a firm step forward.
When walking out of the gate, Mo Xuetong felt the suns.h.i.+ne was right brilliant. The sun in late spring was a little hot, and people could feel its warmth. The suns.h.i.+ne seemed to sweep away the dullness and give Mo Xuetong a feeling of being alive again. She exhaled fully, letting out all the inner remnant breath. This place made her feel it was deadly silent.
She sat on the carriage, lifted the curtain, and watched the heavy door close in a spiritless manner, just like Sima Lingyun’s face.
“My Lady, shall we go back to Mo Manor now?” Mo Lan let out a long sigh. Everything was too depressing in Sima Manor. A few servants were too old and shaky. The flowers and plants were left unattended in some yards. When entering the manor, Mo Lan could not hear any sound, as if coming into a grave. It was really stifling.
“Go back to the manor first. And then, you send some children’s items to the madam as my compliments.” Mo Xuetong closed her eyes slightly. What she had sensed just now disturbed her heart. It was not suitable to return to Mo Manor, so she decided to change her schedule. Xu Yan was pregnant, so Mo Xuetong asked Mo Lan and other maidservants to embroider the items for the child.
“My Lady, how about sending the gifts in a few days? Madam will be glad to see My Lady present in person.” Mo Lan persuaded in a low voice and knew that Mo Xuetong was not in the mood now. No one would have the mood to speak more, as they had seen the crazy and dull scene just now.
However, it would be proper that the Lady gave the gifts to the Madam’s children in person!
