Chapter 17 - The reincarnation of wrongdoers

Madame Rou? Mo Rou? Why would she want to see him?

Mo Ling was startled. Why was Mo Rou looking for him now? How could she, a trash of the Mo Family, enter Mo Rou's eyes? If I guess correctly, Mo Ling Yuan must have told Mo Rou about this matter, the odds are not good for us to go there.

"Allow me to go back and change my clothes." Mo Ling said calmly. Her beautiful eyes remained calm as she slowly turned around and walked back into the house.

"Don't go." The clear-headed Xia Zhi heard the conversation between Mo Ling and the servant clearly. She looked at Mo Ling with his empty eyes and continuously shook her head.

The nightmare instantly poured into Xia Zhi's mind. Mo Rou was a devil!

Mo Ling was gratified, she walked to Xia Zhi's side and placed Xia Zhi's arm back under the blanket, "Don't worry."

Inexplicably, Xia Zhi felt at ease now.

Even though his status was low today, Mo Ling still had a body full of arrogance. She chose the most appropriate set of clothes and simply washed herself before leaving with the maid.

Mo Rou was the real leader of the Mo Family, she lived in the center of the Mo Mansion. That place was originally the courtyard of the Mo Family's madame, but it had been renovated into Mo Rou's courtyard.

Mo Rou and Zheng Xu He still stayed in the Mo Mansion after they got married, but Zheng Xu He would occasionally return to the State Grandmaster's mansion to stay for a few days.

Seeing Mo Rou's current residence, Mo Ling was shaken.

The courtyard of the courtyard that faced south had already been changed to sit east to west, it could be seen how high Mo Rou's position was in the Mo Family. In front of the courtyard was a white jade bridge, deliberately making the courtyard seem like it was isolated from the world. Below the bridge was the gallery of the drooping doors. Three flower halls were set up on the left and right hands of each of them. All of them were carved and decorated in an extremely luxurious manner. In front of the main house, there was a huge screen, and on the screen, it was a portrait of Mo Rou.

All along the way, they were surrounded by strange flowers and herbs, and most of them were things that Mo Ling had mentioned to Mo Rou back then. Not only could she decorate the courtyard, she could even make all sorts of medicines from materials she found on the spot.

So it turned out that Mo Rou had been scheming against him since a long time ago, but she had still foolishly treated her as her trusted aides and told her everything!

"Wait a moment, Madame Rou will be out in a while." The servant brought Mo Ling to the living room and left.

Mo Ling waited alone in the living room. An hour had passed, but Mo Rou still had not come out. Mo Ling immediately stood up and walked out, and coincidentally met the 'late arriving' Mo Rou.

Mo Ling, who was dressed in fine clothes and coarse clothes, formed a stark contrast. When she saw Mo Ling, she immediately frowned in displeasure.

"The younger generation today is truly powerless. They didn't even bow when they saw me." Mo Rou said as she walked past Mo Ling to the main seat.

Mo Rou had never heard of this Mo Ling Yan before. She was Mo Yi's youngest daughter, and had never been favoured since she was young. She had always been left in the corner of Mo Mansion, on her own, with no one interested. If Mo Ling Yuan had not mentioned it, Mo Rou would not have known about the existence of such a person in the Mo Mansion.

The matter with Mo Ling Xuan was too strange, and it had a huge negative impact on the Mo Family. Mo Rou had to ask, for the sake of saving himself, he pushed all the suspicions onto Mo Ling.

The moment he saw Mo Rou, Mo Ling wanted to kill this slut. But reason told Mo Ling that she could not. Her current identity was not enough for her to contend against Mo Rou.

Although she had been using the herbs that Ou Yang Yin Shun had given her to strengthen her body, her body was still far from what it used to be. Right now, it was difficult for her to even summon an evil spirit. The Descending Soul Mirror was her only way of protecting herself. If he were to act rashly, not only would he not reap any benefits, he might even expose his identity.

Presently, she could only endure.

It wouldn't be too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years!

Mo Rou owed this to her, and there will be a day when she will repay him.

As his fingernails dug into his palms, Mo Ling forced himself to calm down. At the main seat, Mo Rou was obviously getting impatient. She had never seen such an impolite junior.

"Mo Ling Yan greets Madame Rou." Mo Ling opened her mouth without any flattery or fear. If one were to carefully look at her eyes, there would be traces of hatred and ridicule in them.

Mo Rou was slightly taken aback, the person in front of her was completely different from the Mo Ling Yan she had heard of. On the contrary, she felt that the person in front of her had an extraordinary bearing. He was dressed in tattered clothes that had turned yellow from washing, but it was unable to conceal the arrogance that was unique to her.

This feeling ? It was actually the same as Mo Ling!

Mo Rou was instantly shocked by her own thoughts. How was this possible? How could the trash of the Mo Family be similar to Mo Ling? Inexplicably, Mo Rou did not like the so called Mo Ling Yan in front of him, so it was more accurate to say that she was afraid.

The meticulous Mo Rou, would always prepare for a rainy day. She would definitely not let a person who might possibly pose a threat to her survive.

Killing intent burst out from his eyes, Mo Rou wanted to get rid of this man!

"I heard that it was you who framed Mo Ling Xuan? From what I see, you are still young and yet you have such a vicious heart. If you don't punish us, in the future, you will definitely become a scourge. " Without even giving Mo Ling the chance to explain, Mo Rou had already blamed her for it.

With Mo Rou's current identity and status, it was extremely easy for her to punish such an unfavoured woman like Mo Ling Yan. She painstakingly placed the accusation on Mo Ling's head just to show her understanding, and at the same time, found a way for her to back down.

The fighting between the girls in the room was not something that outsiders would bother to do, but it was also the best way to purify the situation between Mo Family and Mo Ling Xuan. Mo Ling Xuan was crippled, but the Mo Family could not continue to be affected by these rumors.

It was just that she, Mo Ling, was not a scapegoat, she did not want the crime!

"Madame Rou really knows how to joke around. Would I, the most unfavored trash of Mo Family, have the ability to frame big sister?" Mo Ling spoke, her tone neither hurried nor slow, neither humble nor overbearing. Her eyes glowed as she calmly smiled.

It was precisely this kind of expression, as if it was carved out from the same mold as Mo Ling.

Mo Rou was startled, she looked carefully at Mo Ling, but realised that the expression on her face was no longer there.

"Madame Rou, I am a pitiful worm whose father did not hurt and my sister did not love. What pot? What crime? It was too easy for me to die, why did I have to be charged with so many crimes? With just a word from my sisters, I hadn't eaten for days. If the ladies were unhappy, I would be a punching bag. If you want me to die, with just one word, why would you send me to the Madame Rou? You can use the Madame Rou's power to get rid of me. " Mo Ling said.

Not only did these words dispel his suspicions, they also recounted the hardships he had endured in the past. In the end, he also gave Mo Rou a reason not to kill him. It seemed as if he didn't fear death at all.

She was already someone who had died once, so she knew better than anyone what it felt like to die.

Not afraid?

Wrong, she was more afraid of death than anyone, because she still wanted to keep her life to repay Mo Rou!

She had simply put her life on the line.

Mo Rou blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, shooting out a dangerous beam of light, as she continuously sized up the Third Miss in front of her. Her aura, her words and actions, everything about her was extremely similar to Mo Ling's.

At this moment, a thought emerged in Mo Rou's mind. Could it be that the person in front of him was Mo Ling's reincarnation ?
