Princess Against the World

It's one thing to talk about someone behind their back, but it's another thing to confront them face to face.

Especially after Gu Lan's rhetoric, Tian Su had a little doubt in his heart.

Apart from anything else, it was impossible for his daughter to just stand there in vain, not knowing she had been hurt, and not even having a chance to fight back or escape!

"Dad..." The girl suddenly struggled to sit up and looked at Mo Xuanchen leisurely: "I want to ask Uncle Mo, which one do you believe... is the murderer?"

Mo Xuanchen lowered his eyes: "My current status is not suitable for me to talk about this matter..."

"But I want to hear what you say!" The girl looked at her father pleadingly: "Dad, can we just listen to Uncle Mo on this matter? If he says that she is innocent, we will believe that she is innocent... Because I believe in Uncle Mo!"

Gu Lan raised his eyebrows meaningfully: "The girl's affection for Lao Qi... is indeed very deep, which is extraordinary. I have been talking for a long time, but she has not wavered in the slightest. Now, Lao Qi can't even say a word. Without saying anything, the girl gave Miss Ling a chance!"

Mo Xuanchen's brows darkened a little: "I have said before, my current status is not suitable for making such a decision!"

Taking two steps back, he bowed slightly towards Tian Su.

"It's up to Third Brother to make the decision on this matter. No matter what, I'll accept it!"

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Tian Su again.

Tian Su: "..."

I talked for a long time, going around and over again. Unexpectedly, at the end, it turned back to myself.

None of these guys want to take responsibility.

After all, it is a matter of life and death!

After thinking for a while, he unfolded the scroll and looked at it again: "None of us can confirm what the girl said, and we can't confirm what Miss Ling said. In this case... let's leave it like this for now, Miss Ling, today I won’t touch you, but only if...before I catch the real culprit!"

"Of course!" Ling Luoyu lowered his eyes: "With this picture scroll, I think... Brother Tian should be able to catch the murderer soon!"

She smiled faintly and stared at the girl.

"By then, I hope the misunderstanding between me and the girl can be solved!"

"..."

——

Returning to the room, Ling Luoyu gently closed the door, leaned against the door slowly, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled the entire incident.

Outside the door, there was the sound of soft footsteps.

She opened her eyes suddenly, tilted her head, and listened carefully to the footsteps.

The footsteps stopped at her door, and left again after a few seconds.

I was just hesitant when I left.

After a few steps, he turned back.

But after I came back, there was still no knock on the door.

The footsteps still stopped outside the door.

In this way, he walked back five or six times. Finally, Ling Luoyu couldn't bear it anymore and opened the door.

"If you want to come in, come in. If you have something to say, say it. Going back and forth like this, stopping and going...what's the point?"

Mo Xuanchen's hand, which had been raised, froze in mid-air: "...Am I here to knock on the door?"

"Really?" Ling Luoyu glanced sideways at his hand and stepped aside: "Then come in!"

The door was closed, but she still leaned against it, looking at Mo Xuanchen's back.

"You were lingering outside for so long, hesitating, because you wanted to ask me whether the murderer in the portrait...is real or fake?"
