Chapter 772: 772, Poisonous woman!
Huo Jingshen’s low voice resonated just above her head, “It’s getting late, we should leave.”
Xiao Yebai slightly lifted his eyelids and gave a slight nod.
Huo Jingshen quickly whisked Su Wanwan away.
And only let go of her in the outside corridor.
Su Wanwan was both angry and annoyed, after catching her breath she started complaining, “Why did you drag me away? Weiyi is still inside!”
“Why are you meddling in a married couple’s business?” Huo Jingshen glared at her, his brows furrowed in displeasure.
Su Wanwan huffed, “I’m not meddling, I’m just worried about Weiyi.”
As for that Xiao Yebai…
If it weren’t for the fact that he was Mo Weiyi’s husband, she wouldn’t bother paying him any mind.
“Come home with your husband.” Huo Jingshen said, pulling her wrist again and leading her away.
Su Wanwan was reluctant, the two of them were pushing and shoving when they suddenly heard a door open.
The door of a rest room in front of them opened and a young man came out.
Dressed in a pink shirt and black trousers, he looked around sneakily, glanced at them, and hastily left.
Su Wanwan frowned immediately.
Wasn’t this the man who was giving Mo Weiyi a gift earlier?
Was his name Ye Bei?
Just by his glance, she could tell he was lecherous. Sure enough, he was a bad egg, even at a banquet he was hurrying to hook up with someone?
…
After Huo Jingshen had escorted Su Wanwan past the corridor and back into the elevator…
The door of this side room was opened again, and a woman walked out.
Her half-length curly hair was messy and loose, her white long dress was creased, her face flushed abnormally, and her original delicate makeup was smeared beyond recognition.
With unsteady steps, she staggered towards the banquet hall like a zombie.
…
Inside the banquet hall…
Shi Bo hurried up to him, “Young Master Xiao, should I arrange a car to take you and the princess to the hospital?”
Xiao Yebai finally spoke, “No need.”
Shi Bo was not suspicious and looked towards Mo Weiyi, “Princess, then you are…”
“How did you get out?” Mo Weiyi replied unexpectedly.
Shi Bo was stunned.
Mo Weiyi was looking at Xiao Yebai, her chin slightly lifted, and a calm expression on her beautiful face that had not been seen before.
Seeing Xiao Yebai not talking, she said again, “Rong An, call those two and find out what the hell is going on.”
“Yes, Princess.”
Rong An took out his phone, glanced at Xiao Yebai before he left, and then left.
Just as he reached the door of the banquet hall, he saw Tian Ye walking in. With resentful eyes, she headed straight for Mo Weiyi.
…
The lights in the banquet hall were very bright.
Mo Weiyi heard footsteps, turned, and watched Tian Ye approach.
Once she was close enough…
“Slap!”
A resounding slap echoed.
Mo Weiyi’s face was knocked aside and her unkempt hair fell down, covering that half of her face that was stinging from the slap.
Seemed like someone was shouting in her ear:
“Princess!”
“Princess, are you okay?”
“Princess…”
In the midst of it was a man’s deep voice, “Tian Ye.”
Mo Weiyi closed her eyes for a moment, turned her face around, she directly lifted her right hand and returned a slap that was even harder.
“Ah!”
Tian Ye’s piercing scream echoed along with the sound of the slap.
She cradled her face, looking immensely hateful and embarrassed.
Just about to raise her hand for another slap, her wrist was grabbed by a man.
Xiao Yebai sharply pulled her away.@@novelbin@@
Tian Ye’s body stumbled aside, almost falling over.
After stabilizing herself, she gasped heavily, seemingly wanting to rush over again…
But before she could take a step, another dark figure flashed over and pinned her arm.
Tian Ye was struggling fiercely, her face distorted with anger, “Mo Weiyi, you are a witch! You dared to drug me! Are you trying to ruin me…”
Her voice was already hoarse, so when she shouted it sounded like a crow cawing, grating and harsh.
But no matter how much she yelled, Mo Weiyi remained coldly standing there, dressed in her high-heeled shoes and red dress, looking down condescendingly with a cold gaze, as if watching a clowlish performance.
“Mo Weiyi, I won’t let you get away with this, how dare you treat me like this, I curse you to die horribly ahhhhhhh…Mo Weiyi! You witch! You are nothing but a witch…”
“Rong An, let her go.” Mo Weiyi suddenly spoke.
Rong An’s brows furrowed, “Princess.”
“Let her go.” Mo Weiyi repeated.
Rong An could only release her grasp.
But Tian Ye ended up falling straight onto the carpet.
Due to the effect of the drug, she was already weak; the slap she had just delivered consumed all her strength…
Now, completely exhausted, she collapsed weakly onto the carpet. Her white skirt hem was embarrassingly lifted, revealing her legs covered in pinch marks.
Upon closer examination, similar marks could be found on other parts of her body.
Her neck, collarbone, even her arms…
Various bruises and swellings stood out starkly.
Looking at this sight, Mo Weiyi’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Subsequently, she took a big step back.
Instinctively raising his hand from one side, Xiao Yebai touched her arm…
“Don’t touch me!” Mo Weiyi shouted.
Everyone was startled by this sudden outburst.
Xiao Yebai’s hand stopped mid-air, a fleeting shadow passing through his eyes.
But, he remained silent.
“Ha ha ha ha ha…” Tian Ye suddenly started laughing hysterically, “Mo Weiyi, wasn’t it you who handed him over to me just now? Why don’t you want him to touch you now? You’re such a high-and-mighty princess that you could dismiss a man as easily as summoning him! You handed over even your husband so generously to me, what do you even view Yebai as? How generous of you, haha… Ah!”
A shoe-clad foot suddenly swung over from one side.
It kicked her in the back.
The force was so great that you could almost hear a ‘crack’ – the sound of bones breaking.
A scream escaped from Tian Ye.
But all she managed was that one scream. Her body gave a violent shudder on the carpet before her head tilted to the side, and she passed out cold.
The surrounding servants’ faces turned white from fright.
Rong An withdrew his foot. His face was tense and his body seemed to be covered with an aura of ruthless force.
“Rong An.” Mo Weiyi’s voice rang out quietly, “Let’s go.”
Having said that, she turned to leave.
Rong An followed suit.
The banquet hall fell into a deathly silence.
“Young Master Xiao.” Shi Bo couldn’t help but speak up, “What’s happening with the princess?”
Xiao Yebai didn’t respond.
He stood there, emotionally unmoved and rigid like a statue.
His head hung low, his facial expression unreadable and the glare on his glasses obscured his eyes even more.
Until suddenly, his phone rang.
Xiao Yebai took out his phone and answered the call, “Hello.”
“Yebai, can you talk now?”
“Yes.”
“I’m at the hospital, I had someone sneak in. We’ll find out whether the child in Xu Jing’s belly is indeed from the Mo family.”
His thin lips tightened and after a while, Xiao Yebai replied, “It doesn’t matter anymore.”
Zhan Yao chuckled, “Indeed it doesn’t matter, since the child is already dead. But to avoid any future trouble, it’s better to investigate. This would kill that woman’s hope of entering the Mo family.”
“…” Xiao Yebai didn’t say anything.
Zhan Yao sensed something was off and quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Is Little Princess alright? You can explain the situation with Tian Ye to her. I have Dazhuang taking some photos here. If necessary, we can also explain it to Ye Bei. But the Little Princess is really ruthless, trapping you and Tian Ye together and drugging her so much. Does she trust you that much, or…”
“There’s no need.”
Zhan Yao was stunned, “What’s not necessary? What do you mean? The Little Princess…”
Before he could finish, the call was cut off.
Xiao Yebai slowly put down his phone. After a moment, he dialed an all-too-familiar number.
However, the mechanical female voice on the line answered, “Sorry, the number you have dialed has been switched off, please try again later, sorry…”
He put down the phone, turned around, and walked towards the exit.
**
The black Audi slowly moved out from the underground car park into the night.
“Princess, are we going to the hospital or back to Lishui Bay?”
Mo Weiyi didn’t respond.
All curled up in the backseat, her head bowed. Her cascading, loose curls almost completely covered her.
Rong An glanced at the rearview mirror, pursed his lips, and drove aimlessly down the road.
Who knows how long had passed.
“Rong An.” Mo Weiyi lifted her head to look out the window, “Why aren’t we home yet?”
“We’ll be there soon.”
Rong An immediately steered the car onto the fast lane, heading towards Lishui Bay.
But the peace didn’t last long, as a piercing ringtone resonated within the car.
What do you think?
