However… he hesitated. This was the first time that he didn’t comply with Su Muwei’s request.
If it was before, he wouldn’t care what Mo Qian’er was doing or where she lived.
But things were different now. Mo Qian’er no longer revered him. He had to discipline her until she once again regarded him as her master whom she couldn’t leave.
Qian’er didn’t really need to go to the toilet. She simply didn’t want to be alone with Lu Fenying.
She wasn’t scared of him anymore, but there was still deep resistance in her heart whenever she faced him.
She didn’t dare go overboard either.
Lu Fenying was a cruel and merciless man. The more she resisted, the more he would torture her.
She didn’t want him to touch her or take advantage of her ever again, so she could only do her best to hold back for now.
As long as Gu Bailu’s plan succeeded, she would be free. It would only take a couple of days.
She wandered around the yard and soon reached the plum blossoms. The yellow blossoms gave off a fragrant scent.
It didn’t snow often in Heavenly Wind Empire since it was in the south of the continent and the winters here weren’t cold.
She remembered that there had been heavy snow the year she planted the plum blossoms. That was the same particularly cold year when she had been thrown into a freezing lake.
However, the plum blossoms had been really beautiful that year, and looked even more splendid in the white snow.
But she had seen plenty of snow in Southern Glory Empire this year. She really missed her days there.
She could pick flowers from the garden and make tea with them. She could build snowmen and laugh happily.
Even when her Dragon Spirit Blood was needed, Gu Bailu was very careful and made sure that Mo Qian’er wasn’t hurt.
Nobody had cared that much for her before. She grew up in this house, but she knew that this wasn’t her home no matter how familiar it was to her.
Lu Fenying had exploited her and taken everything from her.
That was probably her fate. She had a slave mark; she was a slave.
Mo Qian’er raised her arm and rolled up her sleeve to reveal a fierce mark on the inside of her arm.
She could die anytime with this slave mark.
After she escaped, Lu Fenying had used this slave mark to cause her pain and tried to force her to come back, but she made up her mind to never return even if she died.
But she was now standing in the house that had swallowed her, under the plum blossoms that she had once used to console herself.
“You never know how things turns out…” Mo Qian’er heaved a sigh.
“That’s right. You really never know how things turn out. I didn’t expect to see you back. It’s been a long time.” At the sound of that gentle voice, Mo Qian’er’s body couldn’t help trembling.
She could face Lu Fenying calmly now, but she was still afraid in front of this vicious, beautiful and fragile woman.
Su Muwei was ruthless in a different way from Lu Fenying. Anybody could tell that Lu Fenying was a ferocious wolf, but Su Muwei was like a viper that slithered through the grass and bit her victim when they were off-guard.
Mo Qian’er turned around stiffly, only to see Su Muwei walking over with the support of a maid, and wearing a crimson hundred-pleated dress and a cloak in the same color.
Mo Qian’er subconsciously stepped back. No!
She didn’t want to be near Su Muwei, because she always ended up being punished when they were together.
