was still pale, and those deep eyes, though they seemed cold and indifferent, were extremely beautiful. An Xuetang felt like she was about to be sucked in within minutes."Do I have something on my fac...An Xuetang didn't urge Ning'er to let go. She watched Liu Lan struggle for a moment before gently speaking to Ning'er, "Ning'er, let her go first."

Ning'er nodded slightly, hmm-ing softly before releasing Liu Lan.

Having gained her freedom, Liu Lan took deep breaths. Just moments ago, she thought she was going to die at the hands of Ning'er.

After Liu Lan took a few breaths to calm herself, An Xue Tang spoke directly, “Tell me, what brings you here today Or did Mo Yun Ze send you”

When she asked that, An Xue Tang's eyes were fixed on her, naturally not missing the flicker of guilt that crossed Liu Lan's face.

When Liu Lan heard An Xue Tang mention Mo Yun Ze, she became uneasy. An Xue Tang saw this expression and instantly understood that Liu Lan's visit was indeed about Mo Yun Ze.

I just don't know what role Mo Yunze played in this incident.

"Ah Tang, actually the Fourth Prince is truly more suitable for you than the King of Bei Jiang, you... ah!"

Before Liu Lan could finish her words, An Xue Tang had already chosen to take matters into her own hands, slapping Liu Lan hard across the face.

Liu Lan cried out in pain, covering her face that had been struck. Her eyes burned with fury.

But the moment she looked up and met An Xue Tang's sharp gaze, she couldn't utter a word.

Don't be fooled by An Xuetang's smiling eyes, for her deep black orbs hold an icy chill. Just one glance from her can leave you frozen in place, as if you've fallen into an endless abyss.

Heart pounding!

An Xuetang curled her lips into a cold smile. "I gave Mo Yunze seven days to bring that so-called Master Ming Deng to me. Now he's sending you as a go-between, clearly not wanting me to meet Master Ming Deng."

Liu Lan looked at An Xuetang carefully, "He... he said he couldn't find the person you wanted to see either, A Tang, you... don't make things difficult for him, okay"

"Heh."

An Xuetang chuckled, "Just protect him like that Seems like you've fallen for him."

Liu Lan having feelings for Mo Yunze That's just a joke!

An Xue Tang stood up, "Tell him, when the deadline arrives, if I don't see that person, you guys better be prepared for what happens next."

Liu Lan was thoroughly exasperated, “A Tang, are you not afraid that I will expose your true identity”

"!"

"You think I look like I'm afraid"

"I am An Xuetang's mother, and it is I who will personally expose you. Do you think no one will believe me"

"Who believes, who doesn't, what does it have to do with me Who am I... important"

After saying that, An Xue Tang turned and left, completely ignoring Liu Lan's pleas.

Liu Lan did want to reach out and grab An Xue Tang, but Ning'er beside An Xue Tang was staring at her, she didn't dare to put her hand out at all, she was afraid that her hand would be crippled.

Just as she returned to Jingtang Garden, she saw Bai Feng standing on the roof, smiling at her. "Beauty, you're finally back."

An Xuetang's eyes turned sharp the moment she saw him, her voice cold and icy, "Unexpected. So you're still alive."

Bai Feng burst into laughter. “Beauty, are you so eager to go to the underworld with me as a pair of mandarin ducks”

"After saying that, he quickly added, “But this palace hasn’t had enough with you in this lifetime, so A Tang, the grand reunion you expect will have to wait.”

A sneer curled up the corner of An Xuetang's lips. "Your existence has made this concubine realize deeply that some people are simply born to be cucumbers, destined to be slapped!"ust be a secret code. As long as it's a code taught by Mother, he will surely recognize it.Lei Hong patted her chest, “Your Highness, please rest assured.”……As expected, Mo Junyi's guess was right. A...
