Chapter 1478: This Is a Crime

The sounds of fighting had already echoed from outside the door, fists clashing and splitting the sky, the sound piercing.

Feng Huaimu stood alone at the entrance, nodding with a smile: "Old Four, Old Seven, Su Li, wish you a happy New Year’s Eve."

He stood at the doorway, while Su Li and the others stood in the hall. Although everyone had smiles on their faces, the atmosphere was somewhat tense, and no one dared to move.

At this moment, Mo Yu’s eyes surged with a cold light, and she barked sharply: "What exactly are you doing?"

Lin Moli had already fallen asleep on Rong Chu’s shoulder, clearly having eaten something she shouldn’t have.

Mo Si Huang looked complexly at the blue diamond ring on his left index finger, and after a moment of silence, said blandly: "You misunderstood, I didn’t add anything to the New Year’s Eve banquet."

Xu Haohao felt dizzy, and she dug her nails into her palm to keep herself awake, her finger joints turning white. Staring at that powerful presence, she cursed loudly: "Feng Huaimu, do you have no shame? Drugging people? Poisoning, huh? You’ll end up in prison sooner or later!"

Feng Huaimu smiled and said: "Haohao left, I was forced to find other ways."

Xu Haohao felt as if everything before her eyes was about to turn into two shadows; all the swearing she’d learned over the years wanted to burst out.

No wonder that scoundrel Feng Huaimu let her go. Originally, he could have used her to threaten them, but letting her go forced him to find another way. Now he even thought of this dirty trick of drugging on New Year’s Eve!

And... who was it that spoke just now? Seems like Emperor Mo?

Oh my god, he indeed has a mole.

Xu Haohao wanted to curse more, but she was already pulled over to Su Li by the equally dizzy Xuan Ting.

Su Li was supported by Feng Huaijin, and as she looked at Mo Si Huang, a trace of disappointment gradually appeared in her eyes.

That Heart of the Ocean ring... was her last hope.

But it seems, it’s useless.

The connection between her and Mo Si Huang was not only his trouble but also a concern for her. She had never asked him to do anything because of it, but ultimately, she had wronged him.

So when the medicine she lacked back then was gone, she bore it herself and didn’t pursue anyone’s responsibility.

The debt she owed Mo Si Huang, she has already repaid.

Mo Si Huang’s fingertip stroked the cold surface of the Heart of the Ocean ring, feeling its protruding surface, he looked at Su Li and said: "Truly, it wasn’t me."

"It was me." Ji Xuewei raised her hand with the Copper Coin clutched, "I took some of the knockout drugs from Xu Xing’s room and put them in the banquet Rong Chu made."

Su Li chuckled, not surprised at all.

Back then, when the news came from Cloud Mist Mountain that the medicine had been eaten by mountain rats, it was Senior Sister Ji who said it.

Senior Sister Ji indeed liked her, just ranked below Mo Si Huang.

Ji Xuewei’s expression showed a hint of difficulty, she said: "I know Master, as well as Xu Xing, Xuan Ting, little Moli Chu, will surely help Su Li, then Senior Brother will struggle. Master, no matter what, Senior Brother won’t do anything to us, he just wants freedom."

Feng Huaijin sneered coldly, reprimanding sharply: "He wants freedom, yet he wants Su Li’s eyes, wants the eyes of my future daughter?!"

"This is criminal."

Ji Xuewei froze, the scene fell into a deathly silence.

A gentle laugh suddenly resonated in the hall, apart from those who fainted, everyone’s gaze moved over.

Feng Ciye was sitting on the sofa, his slender fingers peeling a petite and cute sugary tangerine, smiling as he spoke without lifting his head: "Is Heavenly Master Ji so certain that Emperor Mo won’t do anything to your master?"
