Ghost Marriage, the Abandoned Wife Has Three Treasures

Su Zimo, a daughter of the Su family who was deemed worthless and incapable of cultivation, had her engagement with the Third Prince abruptly terminated by him on the streets, just a day before their wedding. To make matters worse, her own sister took her place in the marriage to the Third Prince, making her the subject of relentless gossip in the city. Consumed by resentment, she struck herself against the gate of the Su Family, inadvertently becoming the target of others seeking a ghost marriage. When Su Zimo finally regains consciousness, she finds herself awakening in a coffin. Considering her previous actions of hitting her head on the gate, this isn't entirely surprising. However, what astonishes her is the presence of another person lying beside her, dressed in vibrant red wedding attire. Overwhelmed by this sight, she nearly loses consciousness. On the other hand, he is burdened with an inexplicable and cursed status, which has plagued his family for generations. This curse, which has now befallen him, brings about unforeseen consequences. An accidental ghost marriage, a fierce business rivalry, and a tumultuous journey of love intertwine their destinies in a profound manner.

Heroes save beauty.

Mu Yunxuan lowered his head, and the dragonfly flew over Mu Yunxuan's soft, red lips like water, showcasing the bright smile on his face that revealed his contentment.

Su Zimo's body shook, and her angry eyes glared at Mu Yunxuan's mocking smile. She despised this beast who only thought about indulging in pleasure at every opportunity. Su Zimo wanted to slap him away, and without hesitation, she quickly raised her hand to hit Mu Yunxuan.

To her surprise, Mu Yunxuan anticipated her every move. As Su Zimo's hand descended rapidly, he swiftly caught her hands, holding them above her head. Their bodies were now closely pressed together, and the man's physical reaction slowly transmitted to Su Zimo. The two found themselves in an ambiguous posture.

"Beast! You let me go!" Su Zimo exclaimed, struggling but unable to move due to Mu Yunxuan's grip.

"This is how you treat your savior?" Mu Yunxuan remained calm, looking at her with a smile. He lowered his head slightly, their noses touching and warm breath caressing Su Zimo's face. Although her heart was flustered, she felt powerless to resist when facing Mu Yunxuan. She could only coldly stare at him.

"Lifesaver?!" Su Zimo's eyes turned cold as she looked at Mu Yunxuan, as if she wanted to devour him.

Su Zimo was filled with resentment and hadn't forgotten how this beast had taken advantage of her in the past. Now, he continued to tease her at every opportunity. What else did he want besides indulging in pleasure?

If Mu Yunxuan knew what Su Zimo was thinking, he would surely regret it.

"Momo, you don't have to admit it, but I can make you surrender right now," Mu Yunxuan said in a magnetic voice, seducing Su Zimo. Her body couldn't help but tremble in response. This damn beast had an irresistible charm, and if it weren't for her strong self-control, she would have fallen for him.

The loud noise outside didn't disturb them at all. The people accompanying Mu Yunxuan were busy assisting He Yunting in eliminating the enemy.

Mu Yunxuan looked at Su Zimo tenderly. Up close, her skin was smooth and radiant like a polished egg, making him want to take a bite.

Observing her flushed face, concealed under the mask but unable to hide her desire, her captivating eyes changing constantly, and her long lashes resembling a delicate fan, Su Zimo's entire being silently invited him.

In that moment, Mu Yunxuan couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation.

Her deep and seductive eyes held a hint of mischief as she smiled at Su Zimo. With one hand, he firmly held her hands, and with the other, he gently removed the mask from her face.

Su Zimo looked at Mu Yunxuan in astonishment. He... was okay?

"Hiss..." A faint rosy blush appeared on his exceptionally beautiful face, making it charming and alluring. Mu Yunxuan restrained the desire surging within him.

"Momo, I grew up bathing in the divine pool. This is all anesthesia, and it has no effect on me. Your efforts are in vain," he explained. His enchanting lips curled into an increasingly wicked smile as he pulled Su Zimo into his arms, holding her hands tightly.

Instantly, annoyance filled Su Zimo's face. She had overestimated herself. In front of him, she had no power to fight back at all. This man was too dangerous. She would avoid him at all costs.

Mu Yunxuan's actions intensified Su Zimo's determination to maintain distance between them.

If Mu Yunxuan knew what Su Zimo was thinking, he would regret his actions, realizing that he had gone too far and making it difficult for Yaoyao to win back his wife in the future. And when Mu Yunxuan would eventually recall this moment, he would prioritize the welfare of the present.

"Momo, you are incredibly beautiful. Your every move silently entices me. Tell me, what should I do with you?" Mu Yunxuan's infatuated voice, filled with bewilderment, carried warmth and a hint of desire, lingering in Su Zimo's ears, arousing a shiver and causing her to swallow hard.

Mu Yunxuan seemed satisfied with Su Zimo's response and tightened his grip on her.

Gritting her teeth, Su Zimo forced herself to regain clarity. She refused to be swayed by this beast's charm. The pain served as a reminder and fueled Su Zimo's racing thoughts.

Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed in Su Zimo's eyes. She had calculated it—since they had been intimate once before, why should she fear a repeat now?

Su Zimo slowly turned around, her lips like snow-white cherries blossoming into a smile. Her beautiful eyes exuded a seductive allure, enchanting and captivating. Her smile possessed the power to entice anyone.

Upon seeing her, Mu Yunxuan's eyes grew deeper and hotter. As those enticing red lips drew closer and closer, his heart raced.

Though he had teased her, allowing himself to relish the satisfaction it brought, when the moment of truth arrived, he hesitated. After all, apart from that one night, he had never touched another woman.

As their lips met, a blank moment flashed through Mu Yunxuan's mind. It was as if it never happened, leaving him perplexed.

Feeling the gradually intensifying temptation and moisture, Mu Yunxuan abandoned all restraint and surrendered himself to the pleasurable sensation.

Time seemed to freeze for the two of them.

"Bang..."

Mu Yunxuan, who was solely focused on his own enjoyment, never expected that as he held the person tightly in his arms and deepened their connection, he would suddenly be kicked and sent flying out of the carriage.

The combatants were stunned, their actions coming to a halt as they witnessed the unknown object being ejected from the carriage.

All attention was now fixated on Mu Yunxuan.

When Qing Feng recognized that it was his own master, his expressionless face couldn't help but twitch.

In the distance, Jun Lantian's eyes filled with deeper confusion and annoyance. That damn Mu Yunxuan had disrupted his plans by unexpectedly intruding.

Within the depths of the jungle, a figure's eyes widened in surprise.

He Yunting looked at Mu Yunxuan with a perplexed expression. What was happening? How could Mu Yunxuan...

And the person involved felt as though they had swallowed a fly. Her kick nearly cost him... From gloominess to fury, his gaze turned towards the carriage, fixating on the woman who had ruined the moment. How could she...? Fine! He admitted that he had been beguiled by her beauty.

Under the heavens, only Su Zimo's seductive scheme could ensnare Mu Yunxuan.

"You beast, I won't let you off the hook..."

With a sigh, a purple figure flew out of the carriage, gracefully and flexibly approaching Mu Yunxuan, their voice filled with anger and as fast as lightning.

"Xuan Bingxue Technique?" Mu Yunxuan regarded Su Zimo with suspicion. How did she come across it? Whom had she encountered in recent years that possessed the Xuan Bingxue Technique?

Despite Xuan Bingxue's lightning-fast attack, Mu Yunxuan managed to dodge it with a slight deflection.

Qing Feng furrowed his brow, puzzled by the situation. What were these two fighting about?

He Yunting felt even more bewildered. What had Mu Yunxuan done to anger Momo so much? He had forgotten to bring his mask. Were these two causing trouble, or was someone else involved?

Hidden in the shadows, Jun Lantian's pupils suddenly constricted. It was the face of the woman he would remember for the rest of his life—the beautiful yet foolish face.

It was truly Su Zimo. She hadn't died, and not only that, she was even more stunning than before. In the eyes of men, she resembled a sacred lotus, a beauty they dared not defile.

Mu Yunxuan didn't come to cause trouble; he had come to help. If Mu Yunxuan hadn't appeared, Jun Lantian wouldn't have obtained the answers he sought tonight.

With no further fighting, Jun Lantian signaled towards the sky, causing the remaining black-clothed masked individuals to vanish instantly.

Meanwhile, a slender dark figure swiftly disappeared into the night.

The cool breeze brushed against Su Zimo, making her realize something.

She glared fiercely at Mu Yunxuan before quickly entering the carriage.

"Yunting, let's go."

"Oh!" He Yunting was perplexed. He had rarely seen Momo so furious moments ago.

To be honest, on this dark night, with limited visibility, few people had a clear view of Su Zimo's face. However, Jun Lantian, who had always desired the truth, would not let go of that crucial moment.

As the car moved further and further away, Qing Feng approached Mu Yunxuan's side and brushed off the dust from his body.

"Holy Lord, are you alright?"

"It's nothing... I'm fine." Mu Yunxuan stared at the disappearing carriage, gritting his teeth with each word.

"Go and kill anyone who saw Madame's true appearance just now. Anyone who dares to assassinate me, Mu Yunxuan, should not be allowed to live in this world."

Mu Yunxuan's words were chilling, a glimpse into his bloodthirsty nature that only a few people who knew him well were aware of.

"Yes, Holy Lord."

Qing Feng turned around and gestured to the people behind him, and they swiftly vanished from the spot.

"You little wildcat, do you think you can escape from me this way? The more you resist, the more determined I am to make you mine."

Before the voice could finish, the person had already disappeared.

Inside the carriage, Su Zimo put on her mask again and vigorously wiped her lips. No matter how attractive Mu Yunxuan appeared to others, in her eyes, he was nothing but a despicable man.

"Damn it, next time I'll smear poison on my lips and see if it kills you..."

Su Zimo angrily muttered to herself as she wiped her mouth.

If any other woman had been kissed by Mu Yunxuan, they would have felt honored and cherished the moment. But Su Zimo was different. She didn't feel honored; she felt disgusted, so disgusted that she wanted to kill Mu Yunxuan to vent her anger.

"Momo, are you alright?" He Yunting asked cautiously, knowing that this tigress was dangerous, and her thunderous voice made him shrink back.

"If I wasn't alright, would I be sitting here quietly? From now on, whenever someone from the Mu family appears at the gates of Mingyue Villa, they will carry a broom and dung to throw at them."

He Yunting fell silent instantly. He knew better than to provoke Su Zimo when she was in such a state. To paraphrase Su Qi's words, when their mother was angry, she was more terrifying than a tigress. And now, she even mentioned throwing dung at the Mu family, a sign of her deep hatred for Mu Yunxuan.

In a secluded forest, a woman dressed in black with a silk scarf covering her face swiftly moved through the woods like a night owl—graceful and agile.

At the moment of her sudden appearance, the enemy had already fallen.

Jun Lantian looked at the masked woman in front of him, furrowing his brows with a hint of anger. Who was this woman? She matched him in skill, and she had followed him without him even noticing.

"Who are you? How dare you follow me?" Jun Lantian asked coldly.

"My Lord, you forget things so easily! Don't forget that note. If it weren't for me, how would you have obtained the answers you wanted so quickly?" The woman's tone was arrogant, and she coldly turned to face Jun Lantian.

Jun Lantian squinted at her, trying to understand her motives. "You were the one who delivered the note?"

"Yes, I was. How did you know she was Su Zimo?"

"I didn't know for sure if she was Su Zimo, but now that I've heard you say it, I can confirm it."

A trace of viciousness flickered in the woman's eyes. Su Zimo was referred to as his woman, his wife. Moreover, he had come to rescue her tonight, indicating that he cared about her. How could the man she admired be tainted by someone like Su Zimo? The corners of the woman's silk scarf revealed a bloodthirsty and vindictive expression.

In an instant, she rose and disappeared before Jun Lantian's eyes, ignoring him completely.

Night fell, and Su Zimo and He Yunting had yet to return.

The entire Mingyue Villa grew restless once again. Murong Shaofeng, who had come to find Su Zimo, had been waiting in the villa with Su Qi and the others. As the sky darkened, he grew restless. He knew that Su Zimo was afraid of the dark, and he wanted to go out and look for her. However, he also knew her capabilities and didn't want to cause any trouble for himself.

"Your Highness, the owner has returned."

Murong Shaofeng was anxious, but just as he was growing impatient, Zhu Yan entered and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Murong Shaofeng hurriedly walked out and coincidentally saw Su Zimo, who had just entered.

Su Li and her two brothers were also present.

"Momo, why are you so late? Did something happen?" Murong Shaofeng asked with concern, noticing He Yunting's disheveled hair.

"Shao Feng, it's alright. We ran into a little trouble," Su Zimo replied casually, not wanting to worry the children too much.

Su Qi squinted her eyes and playfully pursed her lips, knowing that her mother's words couldn't be taken at face value. Judging from Uncle He's appearance, it was definitely not a simple matter.

Su Qi didn't believe it, and Su Li naturally didn't believe it either. Murong Shaofeng also had his doubts, but since Su Zimo refused to say more, he had no choice.

"Shao Feng, I'm a bit tired tonight. Let's talk about it tomorrow," Su Zimo suggested, her mood not in the best state that night.

"Alright! Momo, if it's not urgent, I'll come back tomorrow. Get some rest," Murong Shaofeng replied, hesitating to say something before breaking into a gentle smile.

"Alright! Come over for dinner tomorrow. I'll cook it myself," Su Zimo proposed, thinking that she should invite Murong Shaofeng for a proper meal. After all, he loved the dishes she made, and if he went out to eat, it wouldn't be the same.

"It would be an honor to enjoy a meal you cook. It's not easy to have such a grand feast. It's settled then. I'll come over tomorrow morning and wait," Murong Shaofeng's smile grew brighter. The thought of Su Zimo cooking for him made him feel as sweet as honey.

"What's a meal? Take care on your way," Su Zimo smiled genuinely, though a hint of reluctance could be seen by those observant enough.

"Hmm!"

Murong Shaofeng nodded and left with Zhu Yan.

"Mother, did you encounter an ambush on the road?" Su Li frowned, his eyes filled with a murderous intent. Who would dare to harm his mother?

"Li'er, they were just some bandits after money. Uncle He drove them away with a few strikes. Don't worry, go rest with Qi'er," Su Zimo assured them, though both brothers knew she wasn't telling the whole truth.

The two brothers glanced at He Yunting, who involuntarily shrunk his neck. These two little troublemakers wouldn't want to cause trouble for him again, would they?

He Yunting looked left and right, only to see a figure vanish into thin air.

"Mother, let's go down and rest now."

"Hmm!"

Su Zimo nodded and didn't notice the cunning glint in her sons' eyes.

Su Xin, on the other hand, noticed it.

After Su Li and Su Qi left, Su Zimo called Qinghe once again and instructed her to take Su Xin to Mingyuexuan to rest.

Once Jun Lantian returned to his mansion, he entered his study alone.

Pouring himself a glass of wine, he took a few sips.

Su Zimo, no wonder there was deep hatred in her eyes when I first saw her. Her claims of being Su Zimo's friend and seeking revenge for her were all nonsense. She had returned to take revenge, which meant she still cared. This damn woman hid so well. If she had shown her strength from the beginning, I wouldn't have withdrawn from the marriage or humiliated her in public. But now, Su Zimo shines like the stars in the night, captivating my attention.

The shop under the name of Mingyue Villa brings in profits like flowing water every day. How she manages the business, I don't know. No wonder I never gave her the opportunity to prove herself before. Su Ziyun often whispered in my ear, saying that Su Zimo was insignificant and inconsequential. But it was I who was foolish enough to believe Su Ziyun's words, and I let go of such a precious night pearl dust.

Su Zimo, even though you know you're not dead and the letter of withdrawal is still in my possession, making you my fiancée, Jun Lantian took another sip of wine, feeling almost drunk. The events of tonight have left me unable to sleep. Jun Lantian gazed out of the window into the dark night, lost in thought. Su Zimo is not as formidable as before, and I must come up with a perfect solution.

Su Zimo activated a mechanism and entered a secret room. Inside, a faint mist hovered, giving the impression of a natural hot spring. After spending the day in the carriage, Su Zimo wanted to soak in the hot spring to relax her body, release the tension, and ease her mind. She slowly immersed herself in the warm spring water, closed her eyes, and leaned against the edge of the pool. Before long, the soothing water made her drowsy.

A sly smile curled on Su Zimo's lips as she muttered to herself, "That damn Mu Yunxuan dares to underestimate me. He better prepare to go to hell! Don't think I'm an easy target. The next time I see you, you'll truly meet your demise."

Su Zimo swirled the spring water, its sounds disrupting the serenity of the room.

In the darkness, Mu Yunxuan's lips twitched. How could his wife be so ruthless? If he were to go to hell, who would protect her in the future?

"Lady, you're truly heartless!" Mu Yunxuan's voice echoed in the room.

Su Zimo looked around, finding nothing amiss. How could she hear Mu Yunxuan's voice here? Was it just her imagination?

"That bastard! He's making me so nervous. I must keep my distance from him in the future. Whenever I think of him, I get angry. His cultivation is too high, and he always ends up getting the upper hand. It's infuriating!" Su Zimo slapped the water again, splashing her own face.

She reached out to wipe the water from her eyes, and when she opened them, she was met with a close-up view of a handsome face.

"Ahhh!"

Her scream resounded through the chamber.

Mu Yunxuan closed his eyes and turned his head. Her shriek was akin to that of a slaughtered pig. His delicate ears couldn't bear it.

Su Zimo looked from left to right, confirming that it wasn't an illusion. The person in front of her was indeed Mu Yunxuan.

"You bastard! How did you get here? Do you have a death wish? You dare show up anywhere," Su Zimo scolded, trying to strike Mu Yunxuan, but she was only wearing a towel and couldn't get up. To make matters worse, there was another Mu Yunxuan in the water.

Su Zimo had suspected that Mu Yunxuan might have followed her, but she hadn't expected him to be with her all along. From the very beginning, he had followed her and effortlessly found the mechanism to enter the secret room, once again proving his strength.

"Lady, your voice is too loud. My poor husband's ears are still ringing. You've frightened me," Mu Yunxuan said, looking at Su Zimo with a pitiful expression, blinking his eyes, and appearing aggrieved.

Su Zimo was left dumbfounded, staring at Mu Yunxuan in disbelief. Was he trying to display a pitiful and aggrieved look to her? Was she really that kind-hearted?

Wasn't he the one who used to be wicked and deceitful?

To put it bluntly, wasn't he the one who turned things upside down?

In contrast, Mu Yunxuan, with his wet hair and fair skin, possessed more beauty than most women. Along with his pitiful gaze and deliberately gentle expression, it created a picturesque scene.

"You bastard, get out of here!" Su Zimo said, feeling slightly flustered.

"Huh...!" A pleasant laughter filled the small secret room.

Outside, the winds and waves remained calm.

Mu Yunxuan gazed at her helplessly, a mix of shock, anger, and helplessness evident in his eyes. He felt a deep pity and distress for her, which ignited a certain impulse within him. His gaze became hotter and hotter as he looked at Su Zimo, especially her closed red lips.

Hearing his hearty laughter, Su Zimo's spirit was instantly jolted. She saw the lustful look in his eyes and realized that this damn bastard was once again thinking of indulging in desire. In fact, she was the reason behind his lustful thoughts. She cursed herself, wondering how she had become like this.

A cold gleam flashed in Su Zimo's eyes, and she swiftly reached out her soft hand to Mu Yunxuan's neck, while her other elbow attacked his resistant abdomen in the water. However, the water hindered her movements, slowing down her speed.

Mu Yunxuan calmly caught Su Zimo's fists, gently pulling her closer until her whole body was pressed against his. The slippery and soft sensation sent a tremendous satisfaction through his heart.

Mu Yunxuan leaned into Su Zimo's ear.

"Madam, you're trying to kill your husband. What would you do if your husband died?"

His soft voice carried a deep sense of pity, making Su Zimo momentarily feel like a rare treasure in Mu Yunxuan's hands. The tingling sensation in the water was so pleasurable that it caused her body to react, slowly turning faint and red. Su Zimo wanted to curse profusely! When did she become like this too?

"Madam, husband?" Su Zimo roared, completely disbelieving. She quickly turned towards Mu Yunxuan, using her elbow.

Anticipating her move, Mu Yunxuan let go and retreated, knowing that he had to moderate his actions, or else the fire would be ignited.

Fiercely, Su Zimo pounced, but due to the lack of support, her body fell into the water with excessive force.

"Hmm..."

The sudden turn of events caught Su Zimo off guard, and she struggled hard in the water, choking on a few mouthfuls in the process.

Just when she thought she was going to drown...

A strong arm supported her.

"Ahem..."

Coughing out the water forcefully, Su Zimo couldn't believe that Mu Yunxuan had let her go. Damn it, couldn't he have done that sooner? She almost choked to death.

Mu Yunxuan carried her to the edge of the pool, looking at her with a distressed expression. He regretted letting go of her, realizing that she would fall into the water. He had restrained himself from punching her, but he hadn't anticipated that she would fall.

"Lady, why are you so agitated? Didn't your husband leave? How could your husband leave you alone?" Mu Yunxuan said with concern.

Unintentionally, he listened with his heart, and if she really had a husband who could live and die with her, someone who would be there to accompany her when she was tired, it would be wonderful.

"Mu Yunxuan, I beg you, don't interfere in my life. Our fate ended the moment I fell off the cliff."

Su Zimo closed her eyes, finding an inexplicable sense of security in Mu Yunxuan's arms. This pair of strong arms felt like they could carry her life. Unexplainably, she felt a little greedy.

Mu Yunxuan paused and gently placed Su Zimo on the edge of the pool, sitting down beside her.

He held her shoulders with both hands and gazed at her affectionately.

"Lady, it's not that you're begging me, but I'm begging you, please don't be angry. Although our marriage may have started as a forced arrangement, it has become a real and genuine union. We are husband and wife, and we already have children. Our eldest son Qi Er is already five years old. That night, I originally intended to chase after you when you left. The cliff was too dangerous, and I never intended to abandon you. But things didn't go as planned. You fell off the cliff, and even then, I held onto a glimmer of hope and sent people to search for you below the cliff. For a whole year, there was no news of you..."

"So you just gave up? Is that it?" Su Zimo looked at Mu Yunxuan angrily. The fact that their marriage was forced upon her by him made her furious, and they were still...

The anger in a certain woman's heart made her forget how the vial of potion ended up in Mu Yunxuan's mouth. She was seething with anger. It was obviously his fault!

"Fine, madam, that's enough for tonight. I'll see you tomorrow night, my dear husband."

Seeing Su Zimo's anger, Mu Yunxuan thought it was best for her to calm down first. No matter what she thought deep down, the woman he had chosen must be held tightly in his arms.

Under Su Zimo's gaze, Mu Yunxuan calmly dressed himself and occasionally glanced at her with a smile, clearly enjoying his own victory.

After seeing Mu Yunxuan off, Su Zimo felt like a deflated balloon. This Mu Yunxuan was her nemesis.

Mu Yunxuan went to see Su Qi and didn't stay long before leaving Mingyue Mountain Villa to go to Cloud City.

In the study, Mu Yunhan anxiously waited for Mu Yunxuan's return.

"Big brother, you're back?"

"Mhm," Mu Yunxuan nodded, in a good mood.

At a glance, Mu Yunhan could tell that his elder brother had gone to see Su Zimo again. The power of love was truly extraordinary, as it seemed to have changed his elder brother.

"How did it go?"

"It's Jun Lintian. His intention wasn't to kill his sister-in-law but to confirm her identity. And there's something the eldest brother didn't anticipate!" Ling Qiushui was also present and had a confrontation with Jun Lintian.

Mu Yunhan briefly shared what he had witnessed tonight.

A trace of regret flashed in Mu Yunxuan's deep eyes. He shouldn't have teased Su Zimo tonight. It seemed that her true identity couldn't be concealed.

"Yun Han, has there been any news from the palace? Has the emperor thoroughly investigated the Xiaofu incident?"

Mu Yunxuan sat down on a chair and poured himself a cup of tea.

"There hasn't been any movement for now. The incident was overshadowed by Ji Hong and Li'er's fight in the ring. The prince was assassinated, and there was another murder at the Qunfang Pavilion in Lintian. The culprit was the son of the Taifu, who had close ties with Lintian. The emperor suspects that the assassination of the prince is related to Jun Lintian, but without evidence, he can't treat Jun Lintian that way. Although the emperor doesn't like Jun Lintian, he is still his own son, and there are some personal feelings involved. In addition, the discovery of the Xiao family token on Li Hu softened Li Chengxiang's stance. However, only Li Hu died, and if it goes deeper, it's likely not just Li Hu but the Jiu clan as well."

Mu Yunhan understood his elder brother's concerns, but rushing things wouldn't help. They had to proceed step by step.

"Someone will deliver the evidence. Yun Han, have the people in the palace find a way to send the evidence to the emperor."

Suddenly, Mu Yunxuan remembered that Su Zimo hadn't shown up until the end of Li'er's fight in the ring. Many influential figures in the capital had attended the match, and without the presence of the master's residence, the security would have been relaxed. If Su Zimo wanted to make a move against the royal family, she would have likely taken further action.

But when he thought about Su Zimo seeking revenge on Jun Lintian and the possibility that she still cared about him, Mu Yunxuan felt uneasy.

"Big brother, what should we do about Ling Qiushui? She came to Cloud City not only to marry you but also for other purposes."

"We shouldn't alarm her just yet. Let's see what she's up to. Have someone keep an eye on her."

"Of course, big brother."

Mu Yunhan also felt a chill in his heart. Keeping a woman with impure motives by their side was unnatural.

Early the next morning, while Su Zimo was still asleep, Qinghe woke her up and informed her that Jun Lintian had arrived.

Su Zimo got up feeling extremely irritable, her mood sour.

"Ah..." Su Zimo let out a big yawn.

"Madam, the three princes have been waiting in the side hall for a while. Shall we go and meet them?" Qinghe tried to calm her down. He helped her put on a robe and tidied her appearance.

"Let him cause trouble. In my eyes, he's like a weed by the roadside. I'll ignore him. He'll find it more troublesome than hitting cotton."

Su Zimo sat at the dressing table, resting her head on her hands and wanting to go back to sleep. Mu Yunxuan's words from last night had haunted her dreams, and she had a restless night. Mu Yunxuan, who alternated between affectionate and desperate, called out to her in her dreams all night, leaving her sleep deprived.

"Madam, let's go and meet them. Everything will be fine," Qinghe said with a smile as he looked at Su Zimo, who was acting like a sleepy child.
