Mo Qinghan stared at the man in front of him. He was probably in his late teens, with a tall stature and a delicate and handsome face. His long hair was tied back with a blue ribbon, emphasizing the n.o.ble bone structure of his face, and giving him a graceful and refined air. He looked like the subject of an ink painting, all of his features perfect. Most striking of all was his pitch black eyes which held a tinge of tenderness, incomparable to anything else.

Seeing that Mo Qinghan was staring at him with an infatuated expression, Feng Chenling’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. It looked like she really was the same kind of trash as Mo Qingyu! Feng Chenling’s black pupils eyes clouded in disgust; was this another person who wanted to force him to be hers?

“Fourth Princess, please conduct yourself.”

Feng Chenling’s angry expression was only a bonus to the infatuated Mo Qinghan, who felt as if her heart was being squeezed by this man’s presence. Seeing Feng Chenling’s upset face, her heart could not help but sympathize. Unconsciously, her hands rose up to caress Feng Chenling’s flushed face.

Before her hands could touch Feng Chenling’s face, Mo Qinghan’s hands were stopped in their place by a tight hold on her arm. Mo Qinghan lost her balance, angrily facing the person who dared to obstruct her way.

“Could it be that Elder Sister wants to pursue improper relations?” Mo Qingli pulled Feng Chenling behind her. After all, in this world he was a “weak man” while she was a “strong woman”; naturally, she would protect him.

Mo Qinghan was deaf to Mo Qingli’s cold ridicule. Instead, her two pupils were focused entirely on Feng Chenling. Seeing Feng Chenling glare at her angrily, her heart felt so painful she wanted nothing more than to rip it apart in pieces.

Seeing this, the nearby Ni Cui immediately rushed over and supported Mo Qinghan. “Princess, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” Hearing Ni Cui’s worry, Mo Qinghan turned around to look at her. Her voice was quieter than usual.

Her current appearance seemed extremely haggard. After just a few moments, she seemed to have aged the span of a few years. Mo Qingli coldly watched Mo Qinghan, not caring who or what this Mo Qinghan was. All she knew was that this woman had dared to stare at her consort with an infatuated expression. Thinking of this, her tone of voice became extremely ill-tempered. “Since Fourth Sister doesn’t seem to want to stay for tea, then this younger sister will not keep you. Take care! Yue Yao, send them off!”

The dismissal was clear in her voice, something that the previous Mo Qinghan would have never tolerated. However, right now her attention was solely on Feng Chenling. As she and Ni Cui departed the manor, Mo Qingli and Feng Chenling could be seen embracing. Mo Qinghan felt a sudden sweet taste froth up and fill her mouth. A moment later, she spat out a mouthful of blood. In front of her eyes, she could only see darkness.

Meanwhile, Mo Qingli embraced Feng Chenling, remaining silent as they walked. Feng Chenling had been initially joyful that Mo Qingli had cared about him so much. However, now, he had second thoughts to whether her actions were merely a response to Mo Qinghan’s actions.

In this matriarchal society, a woman who looked at another woman’s husband was considered to be extremely impolite.

“Wi… wife.” Feng Chenling stopped walking. He lowered his head, as if he had been wronged. “I… I know that after I became married, I shouldn’t have revealed my face so carelessly to others. But, but when I heard that the Fourth Princess had come to your residence to cause trouble, I couldn’t help but rush over. Which was why I… I…”

As he spoke, Feng Chenling began to cry. Mo Qingli exhaled a breath, hugging him to her bosom. Quietly, she comforted him. “I was the one in the wrong. Don’t cry.”

“I never thought she would… that she would act like this. Wife, I…” Feng Chenling tightly grasped onto Mo Qingli’s clothes, his large eyes staring up at her. Mo Qingli felt her mind tremble inadvertently.
