Du Yunluo's body swayed, her neck stiffened.
Mu Lianxiao was talking about "how much does she know," had he already guessed that she knew much more than him?
Du Yunluo instinctively licked her lower lip with the tip of her tongue, her smile awkward.
Mu Lianxiao caught her little gesture in his eyes, and the answer was already in his heart.
Yesterday at the Zhen Mansion, Imperial Doctor Xing had said to Du Yunluo, "There are many disputes in deep mansions and big houses." This morning before departing, Imperial Doctor Xing pointed out that Mu Tang was not mute.
If Du Yunluo hadn't asked Imperial Doctor Xing beforehand, how would he have known whether Mu Tang was mute or not?
The many disputes lie in places unknown to Mu Lianxiao.
Their eyes met, and Du Yunluo saw her reflection in Mu Lianxiao's eyes, going deeper, she saw a bottomless darkness.
She hesitated, how should she respond?
