Chapter Twenty-Three: Sudden Death
The day had just dawned, but the whole night city was in a panic, and people from various families died, some were insignificant slaves, and some were children of families with inheritance rights, and the death was extremely miserable, leaving no trace, making it impossible to study.
"Who the hell is it! Who dares to blatantly assassinate the children of my family. In the palatial Li Mansion, a middle-aged man angrily crushed the teacup, thinking that his Li family was one of the best ancient families in Night City, which was really bullying people.
"Master, you have to call the shots for my Wanru, if the secret guard hadn't found out early, my poor daughter would have died. A woman in the nearby seat was crying.
"Someone, give me a good look. The middle-aged man glanced at the woman beside him in disgust, ignored it, and turned to go out the door. He wanted to see who was going to oppose him Li Heng.
In the Beihou Mansion, Gu Moxi was sleeping soundly, and he didn't know anything about it.
"Miss, Miss, are you up?" Bai He knocked on the door.
Gu Moxi frowned, changed her position and continued to sleep, she hated it most when someone was noisy with her while she was sleeping.
"Bai He, you step down. This is Li Qinghe walking towards Gu Moxi's courtyard, waving his hand at Bai He, she knows the details of this girl clearly, she didn't except her before, and it was also to see that she didn't really hurt Moxi.
"Yes, ma'am. Bai He gave a respectful salute and walked away with the breakfast in his hand.
Seeing Bai He leaving, Li Qinghe gently pushed open the door, walked in, looked at the little lazy cat on the bed, and couldn't help laughing.
"Mo Xi, get up, my mother has something to tell you. Li Qinghe pushed Gu Moxi's shoulder.
"Mother, what time is it, I haven't woken up yet. Gu Moxi waved her hand, she was tired enough these days, thinking about cultivation every day, oh, and those little picture books.
"It doesn't matter if you don't get up, my mother will just talk to you by the bedside. Li Qinghe sat down on the edge of the bed.
When Gu Moxi heard this, he was embarrassed to lie on the bed, opened his eyes, got up and sat up.
"Mother, what do you have to tell me?"
"Mo Xi, my mother knows what you have suffered all these years, but she has never helped you, I'm sorry. Li Qinghe stroked Gu Moxi's cheek and choked up. Over the years, looking at her daughter like that, she also has mixed feelings in her heart, and thousands of arrows pierce her heart.
"It's okay mother. Gu Moxi held Li Qinghe's hand, it turned out that she knew everything about the former master, so as the mother of the former master, why did she ignore it so much.
"Mo Xi, I just hope you can regain your self-esteem, my mother told you, the twisted melon is not sweet, you shouldn't give up everything for such a man, do you understand?" Li Qinghe had already shed tears, this was the last time, and until now, she still wants to persuade her daughter again.
"I know, I've long lost hope in that Yun San Gongzi. Gu Moxi smiled, I see, who doesn't want their children to be more motivated, and so is Li Qinghe.
"Mo Xi, do you really understand what my mother means?" Li Qinghe was stunned, over the years, she hadn't knocked on the side, but Gu Mo Xi was very impatient every time, and without saying a few words, she didn't pay attention to herself, and even ignored her for several days.
"Mother, I think about it, I can't give up my self-esteem in exchange, don't want it. Gu Moxi said solemnly, she really looked down on the original owner in her heart, incompetent and humble, I am afraid that no one would like such a person!
