Chapter 755 - Dont Dirty This Kings Ears
The Tempestuous Consort – Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness
Si Mobaiâs gaze immediately became frigid. He raised his hand, intending to strike, but Feng Tianlan stopped him. âWhy did you want to assassinate me?â
Why had she confessed so swiftly and with so much composure?
Gao Sijia raised her head and looked at Si Mobai with an incomprehensible look full of burning affection. âFrom the moment this subordinate met Master, I developed feelings for him...â
Before she could even finish speaking, Gao Sijia was hit by a powerful wave of Spiritual Energy and was sent flying. She collided forcefully against a pillar and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Si Mobai didnât even glance at her. âDonât dirty this Kingâs ears.â
Infatuation and admiration were only considered romantic when spoken by Lanâer. If anyone else said this to him, it was simply filth to his ears.
Gao Sijia wiped the blood dripping from the corner of her lips. She leaned against the pillar and said in a calm and collected manner, âI used Yunyi Allianceâs old seal and got the assassins to wear their uniform to attack Feng Tianlan. Iâm jealous of her. On what grounds should a woman who randomly popped out of nowhere be in a position to receive the Masterâs favor, causing him to oversee the good in this subordinate?â
Feng Tianlan stretched out a hand to stop Si Mobai. âLet her speak.â She felt that Gao Sijiaâs composure was unusual.
âEver since I posted the bounty mission, I knew the consequences that I would have to face. So...â Black blood suddenly flowed out of Gao Sijiaâs mouth. She looked up and stared at Si Mobai with a foolish smile. âThis subordinate will commit the deed myself. My family and I will pay the price for everything.â
Once this was said, her neck became crooked. Her widened eyes and her pupils soon lost their luster as black blood flowed out of her mouth in a continuous stream.
The other three guys hurried forward to check on Gao Sijia. She had swallowed poison out of her own volition and had already stopped breathing.
Si Mobai knitted his brows and looked at Feng Tianlan. âLanâer?â
âForget about it. Letâs go,â Feng Tianlan replied faintly. It was obvious that Gao Sijia was covering the tracks of someone else. Gao Sijia had probably made preparations to commit suicide as soon as she entered the city.
She had already assumed that it would not be unveiled so easily, but she had not expected someone to try and cover up the crime. So cleanly, at that. She had even implicated her entire family just like that.
âYou guys sort this out. Also, this matter cannot be concluded yet. Continue investigating. If youâre unable to attain any results, then you all can go and accept your punishment.â After giving his orders coldly, Si Mobai stood up and held Feng Tianlanâs hand before taking his leave.
The remaining three people gaped at Gao Sijiaâs corpse. After looking at each other in dismay, they finally went to deal with the body.
âLanâer, where do you want to go?â Si Mobai asked.
Feng Tianlan shook her head faintly. âIâm not going anymore. Letâs just return to the courtyard.
âStill thinking about what happened just now?â
Feng Tianlan acknowledged in a soft voice, âIf I knew that this would happen, I wouldnât have appeared in female clothes. That way, at least some investigations could have been done.â
At present, their lead had been abruptly cut off, and so cleanly at that. Even the lives of her entire family had been extinguished. With this degree of cruelty, she was unable to imagine who the orchestrator behind the scenes was.
Si Mobai furrowed his brows without saying a word. His fingers were tightly interlaced with Feng Tianlanâs hand as he led her back to the room.
The assassination attempts were disrupted because of this, but it still made Si Mobai inclined to reorganize the Bailan Alliance. Hence, after he sent Feng Tianlan back to her room, he departed once more.
The members of Bailan Alliance were originally part of a long line of highly loyal families. However, many years had passed, and, from the looks of it, many people had already started to entertain other thoughts in their heads. If he did not reorganize them, the future was unpredictable.
Regarding this, Feng Tianlan didnât mind too much. Their lead had been cut off, and it was fine if they couldnât investigate any further. As long as that person continued to make attacks on her, the instigator would one day be uncovered. She was not in a hurry.
At present, she was only concerned about Xi Jinâs and Shen Yunyaâs wedding, as well as her deep-seated vengeance. She would only be able to think about other matters in peace once these burdens had been resolved.
