Chapter 96.1 - Self-slapping (Part 1)
Murong Shaofeng stood in the same place. The pain in his eyes made Zhu Yan, who was hiding in the dark, worried.
His Highness’s identity was an obstacle between him and the Mingyue Master. This was also the reason why His Highness hasn’t dared to reveal his feelings for her. He loved her deeply, but he can’t express it. And he was the only one who knows his suffering.
Murong Shaofeng turned around and sat down on the chair. Mu Yunxuan’s words ‘husband and wife’ were like a knife cutting his heart fiercely, which made him felt suffocated in pain.
“Momo? What should I do? What should I do with you?”
Murong Shaofeng gently rubbed his eyes. The pain could be seen in his handsome face. Even his lips trembled because of the pain.
The most painful part of love was that you can’t make people come back. His heart hurt so bad. He still treasured her inside his heart.
“Zhu Yan, go and let someone make Momo’s favorite hibiscus cake. Don’t make it too sweet.”
Murong Shaofeng ordered softly, but he knew that Zhu Yan could hear it.
“Yes, Your Highness. Is his highness going back to the other courtyard?”
“I won’t go back tonight. I’ll stay at Mingyue Villa for a while.”
As if he made up his mind, Murong Shaofeng suddenly opened his eyes.
He hasn’t spent much time with Su Zimo. After a month, he had to return to the Xingyue Country. He had to cherish the time he spent with her.
This time, the distance between them was thousands of miles apart. But because of her presence, it was more like a fraction to him.
“Yes, your highness.”
Zhu Yan looked at his master deeply before turning to leave.

Mu Yunxuan quickly brought Su Zimo back to her room, and gently put her in the bed.
Seeing that she was sleeping, even if Mu Yunxuan was angry, he couldn’t get angry.
“You! You really know how to make me feel uncomfortable. You seduce other men even when you fall asleep.”
Mu Yunxuan muttered to himself with anger.
“I’ve only didn’t see you in a month, but you’ve changed a lot.”
Jin Cheng’s voice suddenly sounded. Mu Yunxuan tucked the quilt for Su Zimo, then he got up and left the bed.
Jin Cheng has been standing outside the door.
“Have you caught people?”
“Mmm! The Taoist Priest is also here. He said he has something to tell you. He won’t tell it to someone else. I can only take him back to Yun City. He has been locked in the dungeon now.”
Jin Cheng faintly said faintly. His pair of deep eyes were looking at Mu Yunxuan curiously, then he stretched out his neck to look at the woman on the bed with a mask. Mu Yunxuan blocked Jin Cheng’s sight with doubt. He and Jin Cheng were not close to women. But today, he looked at his wife many times, which made him puzzled.
Mu Yunxuan turned around and set a barrier around Su Zimo’s bed.
After turning around, he coldly said: “Let’s go back.”
He didn’t utter another word, the two disappeared instantly.

In the woods not far from Mingyue Villa, a woman in red and a man in white were waiting quietly. Under the moonlight, it can be seen that it was actually Ji Rui and Ji Yu.
After a while, a shadow guard knelt in front of them.
“Young Miss, Young Master, the guards around Mingyue Villa are tightly guarding. There are also many traps. Their 12 death squad are guarding their posts day and night. They never neglect their duties. If you don’t go through the main gate, it’s difficult to enter Mingyue Villa.”
“Hmph! Such a small Mingyue Villa is guarded heavily. There must be secrets inside.”
Ji Rui’s eyes under the moonlight looked very fierce. She looked like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity in the grass.
“The paper they produced in the paper factory is many times better than the Mu Family. This is the finished product secretly hidden by this subordinate. Please have a look.”
The shadow guard took out a blank sheet of paper and handed it to Ji Yu.
Ji Yu took a look and his sharp eyes flashed with surprise!
“Sure thing. It looks many times better. No wonder it’s tightly guarded.”
“Brother, our Zheng Guofu is the second-largest business family in Yun City. If our place is about to be taken away by this newly-rising Mingyue Villa, then why should our Zheng Goufu get along with them?”
Ji Rui looked at the paper in her elder brother’s hand with venomous eyes. She knew in her heart that as soon as these finished products came out, it would cause an uproar in the Four Countries. Mu Yunxuan was the man she liked, she would never allow such a thing to happen… …
That Ling Qiushui has been defeated without even using her hands. Her family background in Yun City was good enough. She shouldn’t let go of this fateful chance.
“Not bad.” Ji Yu turned the white paper in his hand into ashes. As he stared sharply at Mingyue Villa.
“During the match with Hong’er that day, the Mingyue Villa was afraid that our Zheng Guofu would deal with them clearly, so they forced our father to sign an agreement in front of my emperor, making it impossible to make a move for revenge. Since our father couldn’t do something, we will use this agreement as a reason to enter and exit the Mingyue Villa smoothly.”
