Chapter 274: The Mystery Revealed
"Okay, I'll go with you."
"Lord Wang......" Chu Wanxiang wanted to speak and stopped, as if she had any concerns, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"What's wrong, Xiang'er?" Chu Mohan asked softly.
Chu Wanxiang hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage to pull Chu Mohan's sleeve and coquettishly: "Can you let me ride a horse by myself?"
Chu Mohan frowned, a little hesitant.
"Don't worry, my riding skills are very good." Chu Wanxiang hurriedly raised her right hand and swore to the sky, "I will guarantee it with the head of the item."
"You don't have to swear." Chu Mohan touched her forehead, "Since you like it, go try it." But stay safe and don't get hurt."
"Yes, Lord." Chu Wanxiang jumped up happily and ran out of the house happily.
She walked to the door, stopped, and waved her hand at Chu Mohan, "Lord Wang, go slowly."
Chu Mohan nodded, and spurred the horse to gallop away.
Chu Wanxiang turned around and was about to go back to the house to change clothes, but found that there was one more person in the house, so he suddenly screamed and took a few steps back. She saw a man in black standing at the table with his back to her, and she was terrified.
The man turned around slowly, and a bewitching handsome face appeared in view. His skin is white and delicate, his facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, his thin lips are shallow curvature, and his eyes are deep and bottomless, dark and cold. His facial features are three points similar to Chu Mohan, except that his eyebrows are long and curved, and the tails of his eyes are obliquely raised, with a seductive and seductive color.
Chu Wanxiang looked at him apprehensively, and only after a while did she spit out four words: "...... Chu Yue?"
"Hmm." Chu Yue snorted casually, then reached out and grabbed Chu Wanxiang's neck and pressed her against the wall, and asked sadly, "Xiang'er, have you forgotten what you promised me at the beginning?"
Chu Wanxiang coughed with difficulty, "...... W-what?"
"Hehe......" Chu Yue laughed weirdly, lowered his head and gritted his teeth, "Chu Wanxiang! How dare you forget the promise you made back then! Are you not afraid of death?"
His tone was calm, and his eyes were so fierce that Chu Wanxiang couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly explained, "I haven't forgotten, I promised you never to escape......
Chu Yue sneered and relieved his strength. Chu Wanxiang inhaled heavily, the feeling of suffocation just now was so painful, she almost thought she was going to die, and her heart missed a beat.
"Then why did you run away?"
"I...... I accidentally fell asleep." Chu Wanxiang weakly defended.
Chu Yue stared at her for a while, then suddenly reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up at herself, her eyes narrowed, and her gaze was grim: "I tell you, Chu Wanxiang, you'd better stay in the mansion obediently, otherwise you'll ......."
"Don't kill me!" Chu Wanxiang suddenly covered her ears and screamed. She was afraid of his threats, and she hated the feeling of being choked by the throat and in the hands of someone else. She wants to live and be with Chu Mohan forever, so she must endure the humiliation and wait for the opportunity for revenge.
Chu Mohan not only didn't love her, but he didn't even understand what she thought of him at all.
"Xiang'er, are you afraid of me?" Chu Mohan smiled contemptuously, "Do you know that your current resistance is like an ant in my eyes."
Chu Wanxiang stiffened, and a strong sense of anger and humiliation surged in her heart. Chu Mohan actually looked down on her so much, she didn't allow it. If she wants to become stronger, she must become stronger than Chu Mohan! She wants to take back everything that belongs to her!
The two sat at the table in silence, Chu Mohan drank, and Chu Wanxiang took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth. She looked out the window and suddenly thought of something, so she asked, "By the way, Lord Wang, I heard the housekeeper say that you found someone to check on the matter of the second sister."
"Yes."
"What's wrong with her?"
Chu Mohan shook his head.
"Did you say something to the princess?"
Chu Mohan shook his head again, "No."
"When did the prince find out?" Chu Wanxiang continued to ask.
Chu Mohan frowned, and said lightly, "I told the housekeeper, I can't tell you." c
"Then I'll listen to it too." Chu Wanxiang said stubbornly. A voice in her heart shouted: Tell me the truth, let
I know who is behind the scenes, who has seized the identity of the original owner!
Chu Mohan looked at her stubborn little face, suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, and slowly said, "Xiang'er, are you begging me?"
"Well," Chu Wanxiang nodded frankly, "I want to know the truth, so I beg the prince to tell me the truth."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Chu Mohan's eyes. Chu Wanxiang was really honest enough, which made him even more convinced that she was Chu Wanxiang.
"Since you want to know, then the king will tell you." He smiled close to her ear and whispered, "I sent someone to investigate your past. And you guess, I found something very interesting."
Chu Wanxiang looked at him with wide eyes, waiting for him to reveal the mystery.
"You're dumb." Chu Mohan's voice sounded low, exploding in her mind like a nightmare, "Your throat is broken."
Chu Wanxiang was stunned and stared at him sluggishly.
She's a mute? This news was so shocking that Chu Wanxiang couldn't react for a while.
Chu Mohan laughed softly, "Xiang'er, why don't you speak? Do you want to pretend to be dumb?"
Chu Wanxiang still didn't speak. Chu Mohan smiled, leaned over and kissed her on the cheek: "Silly girl, don't pretend to be dumb, we are already husband and wife, what are you still hiding from me?"
Chu Wanxiang finally came back to his senses: "I...... I'm mute."
Chu Mohan's pupils shrank sharply, and he immediately regained his composure. He pursed his lips and looked at her, not speaking for a long time. Chu Wanxiang lowered her head and lowered her eyes to hide the loss under her eyes. He must hate her for being mute, right?
"Xiang'er," Chu Mohan sighed, touched her head, and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, this king will cure your dumb disease sooner or later."
"Thank you......" Chu Wanxiang reluctantly tugged at the corners of her lips, "You haven't told me what's going on, why am I a dumb person?"
"Well...... this" Chu Mohan dragged out a long tail and looked at her meaningfully.
Chu Wanxiang's heart beat faster for a moment.
His gaze swept over her chest, and Chu Wanxiang covered her neckline with her hand, her face flushed.
Chu Mohan retracted his gaze, picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said leisurely: "You have been weak since you were a child, and you have many illnesses and disasters, and your father and mother have doted on you very much, and they have given you supplements to eat every month. Your dosage is also well controlled, and you basically don't eat too much in one meal. But......" Chu Mohan paused, "You once had a sudden high fever one night, and the fever was so bad that you almost couldn't be saved."
Chu Wanxiang was surprised: "I have such a serious medical history?"
"Or else?" Chu Mohan sneered, "If it weren't for the queen mother arriving in time, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me today."
"That...... Which quack misdiagnosed?" Chu Wanxiang asked.
