Chapter 126 You Don’t Recognize Me
As night fell, Zheng Jiaxuan's agile figure jumped up and climbed over the high wall, but as soon as he left the villa, he was intercepted by Mo Yi and Xuanwu who had been waiting for a long time.
Fu Yansheng walked out with a stern expression, his eyes as sharp as an eagle: "You've been in there for so long? It looks like you've gained a lot from this trip!"
His words revealed his curiosity and scrutiny of Zheng Jiaxuan's behavior.
Thinking that Ling Mohui had fallen into Zhang Xiyue's carefully arranged conspiracy just because of his momentary negligence, Zheng Jiaxuan's heart seemed to be pierced by ice, and his eyes became extremely cold.
"I just walked around and didn't see Sister Mohui there."
Zheng Jiaxuan's voice was low and firm, as if every word carried a heavy weight.
Upon hearing this, Fu Yansheng narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, put his hands behind his back, and his posture revealed an indescribable majesty.
"As everyone knows, your Qinggong surpasses Xuanwu and Mo Yi, but you appeared at the most critical moment. The strangeness of this is really hard to ignore."
His words had an unmistakable force that got to the heart of the matter.
"Zheng Jiaxuan, you don't need to hide anything from me. Is Ling Mohui in that summer resort?"
There was anxiety and worry in the depths of Fu Yansheng's eyes.
For him, nothing is more important than Ling Mohui's safety at this moment.
Even if she chose to avoid him, even if her heart belonged to Han Zifeng, he could accept all of this as long as she was safe and sound.
"No means no. The answer will be the same if you ask again."
There was a hint of impatience in Zheng Jiaxuan's answer. He felt mixed emotions, dissatisfied with Fu Yansheng's questioning and worried about Ling Mo's safety.
hypocritical!
If it weren't for his suspicion, how could Ling Mohui have encountered this unexpected disaster?
He would rather Ling Mohui never set foot in the Grand Secretary's Mansion again than have her come to any harm.
"Ling Mohui, is she really in that villa?"
There was a hint of tentativeness in Fu Yansheng's words, but also a bit of expectation.
If he hadn't found any possible clues about Ling Mohui, how could he have the leisure to argue with others here.
Fu Yansheng's mind suddenly became clear, Ling Mohui was most likely in that summer resort!
He immediately gave an order to Mo Yi: "Notify the Jingzhao prefect immediately. We will stay at the Mountain Resort tonight."
Upon hearing the order, the prefect of Jingzhao did not dare to slack off and immediately sent a messenger to Han Zifeng's residence to convey the message.
Han Zifeng seemed quite dissatisfied with Jingzhao Prefecture's visit again: "Didn't you leave already? Why are you here again?"
"It seems to be because of the Prime Minister's intention." The butler answered cautiously.
Han Zifeng held his forehead with his hand, knowing in his heart that if he forcefully refused, people would only think that he had something to hide.
"Arrange for them to stay in the North Courtyard, and strengthen the guard of the East Courtyard to ensure that they cannot see Miss Ling." Han Zifeng ordered.
The North Courtyard and the East Courtyard are far apart. Unless the other party did it on purpose, there would be no chance for him to get close to Ling Mohui.
It was late at night, the moon was hanging on the willow branches, and Ling Mohui slowly opened her eyes in the silence around her.
She sat up gently and looked through the exquisite window lattice, just in time to see the bright moon hanging on the branches of the willow tree.
The incense burner beside the bed used to help with sleep has been extinguished, but a faint fragrance still lingers in the air, interrupting the dream. It may be that the maid forgot to add incense because of her busy schedule.
These days, she followed the doctor's advice and maintained a regular schedule. Lying in bed for a long time made her body feel relaxed yet a little stiff.
On such a quiet night, Ling Mohui had the urge to go out for a walk.
She gently pushed open the door, and the cool night breeze rushed in, bringing an indescribable comfort.
She walked briskly along the winding path and soon arrived at the gate of the courtyard.
To her surprise, there were two more guards on both sides of the gate tonight, which made her suspicious.
"May I ask why you two are stationed here?" Ling Mohui took the initiative to ask.
When the guard saw her, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Why is the lady out at this time?"
"Miss, please go back to your room and rest!"
"No need, I just want to go out for a walk and relax for a while."
"Then I will report to the owner of the manor immediately!" One of the guards whispered to his companion and winked.
"Miss, it's late at night. Wouldn't it be better to wait for the owner of the manor to come and take a walk with you?" The guard persuaded in the gentlest tone possible.
Ling Mohui frowned slightly: "No need to alarm my father, I'm not a child, I can take care of myself."
"Miss, you are going to embarrass us!"
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a familiar and slightly hurried voice came from the opposite side.
"Ling Mo, come back!"
Fu Yansheng walked towards this side.
His gaze gently fell on Ling Mohui's figure, and that heartfelt joy seemed to overflow from every gap in his eyes.
"You're recovered!" His words were full of excitement, and he strode towards her with big strides, his heart full of the urge to hug her tightly in his arms.
Ling Mohui stretched out her hand and grabbed his ear accurately.
"Rebellious son! How dare you be so rude to your father!"
There was a hint of teasing in her tone, yet it was still dignified.
Fu Yansheng's face was instantly filled with confusion and puzzlement, and his eyebrows twisted into the shape of a "chuan" character, "Mohui, it's me, don't you recognize me?"
"How can I not recognize you, the guy who almost killed me! How dare you show up in front of me? I'll teach you a lesson!"
As Ling Mohui spoke, she had already neatly taken off her shoes and started waving them, making gestures towards Fu Yansheng. Although it was a punishment, there was a hint of amusement in her expression.
"Mohui, I'm Fu Yansheng! Take a close look at me!" Fu Yansheng shouted while dodging, hoping to awaken her true memory.
However, when Ling Mohui looked at him again, her anger seemed even stronger.
"Rebellious son! How dare you challenge me!" Faced with this sudden change, Fu Yansheng seemed a little helpless and could only hold her wrist with his backhand, "Ling Mohui, I know you have resentment towards me in your heart, but now is not the time to make trouble. Let's go home first and we can talk it out slowly if there is anything."
At this moment, Han Zifeng rushed over and protected Ling Mo behind him, saying in a firm and powerful voice, "Stop! Let her go!"
Ling Mohui took the opportunity to hide behind Han Zifeng and shouted angrily, "Dad! It was this rebellious son who almost caused me to lose my life! Come and punish him!"
Fu Yansheng looked at Han Zifeng coldly, with a hint of inquiry in his words, "Han Zifeng, what did you do to Mohui to make her become like this?"
Han Zifeng sneered in response, "How dare you ask? If you hadn't delayed treatment and the poison had penetrated deep into her brain, how could she be like this? If I hadn't found Guo Yueshan in time, how would you have the chance to stand here and question me?"
