Chapter 702: Chapter 301: Faith_3

Western Border Woman, Lady Wan.

I’m sorry to you, afraid that this day is the very time when Wan Yutang and Lady Wan are getting married.

Back then, Wan Yutang wanted to secure the Great Hall Master position at Wusheng Hall, and he needed Lady Wan to stabilize the situation.

With no choice left, Wan Yutang had to comply.

Yet, he stated his true feelings in the letter, saying he would never harm Lady Wan in the slightest.

Moreover, from the rest of the letter, it seems that he plans to bring back ’Qing’ mentioned in his letters to Wusheng Hall, and then drive out Lady Wan, once he has stabilized the situation at Wusheng Hall.

Lady Wan is the sole heir of the Hou Family, the premier family in the Western Border.

An attack by her whole family would naturally mean a secret power struggle in the Western Border.

However, just by looking at the implications in Wan Yutang’s letters, it’s obvious he was ready for a fight to the death.

But judging by his later actions, he clearly did not achieve this.

Saying he would not harm a hair, yet where did Wan Yilan come from?

At the Western Border, any small movement, Wusheng Hall has a grasp like it’s at its fingertips.

The Master of Wangxuan Mountain sneaking into Wusheng Hall’s territory and secretly arriving at Tihu Village, Wusheng Hall knew all too well about this matter.

It’s clear that this part had already been under the control of Wusheng Hall.

But… how did these letters end up in Lady Wan’s hands?

The already uneasy feeling in Su Mo’s heart became even more disturbing.

Unable to help himself, he glanced at Wan Yulan, who was rummaging through the books:

“Miss Wan, may I ask, does your father know how to get into this secret chamber?”

“Ah?”

Wan Yilan was startled for a moment, and without turning her head, she said:

“Dad, well, I don’t know if he knows, but he probably does.

“Although the relationship between my dad and mom is not very good, it seems that there are not too many secrets between them.

“It’s hard to say what’s really going on between them.

“In any case, I can’t figure it out.”

Su Mo gently nodded his head, but his eyebrows knitted together again.

Wan Yutang, which is Wan Ren Mountain, all his letters to ’Qing’ were intercepted by Lady Wan.

And now they have appeared here.

But with this, Su Mo understood the reason for Wan Cangxin’s life of sorrow, which indeed began with Wusheng Hall.

The letters Wan Yutang wrote to his mother were all seized by Lady Wan.

How could this be good?

And the reason Night Lord knew about Wan Cangxin’s affairs was also clear.

By that time, Ren Xiongfei was already within Wusheng Hall.

If even one of these letters fell into Ren Xiongfei’s hands…

Then this matter could not be hidden at all.

But besides this, other thoughts began to surface in Su Mo’s mind.

As he was pondering, he heard Wan Yilan’s low cheer:

“Su, the Chief of the Escort, I…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Su Mo frowned and snapped his fingers, instantly extinguishing the light.

Wan Yilan’s words stopped abruptly, and she couldn’t help but look at Su Mo in confusion.

Su Mo gestured towards the outside of the secret chamber, and in just a moment, footsteps could be heard in the corridor, heading towards the study.

The secret door within the study was concealed by a bookshelf, which was embedded in the door; now that it was closed, only a thin gap was visible.

Both of them approached, but the crack was too narrow to allow them to peep out.

However, their voices could be heard clearly.

They heard the study door open, one person stepping in, followed by another set of footsteps.

After the lights were lit, a woman’s voice spoke:

“Why are you disturbing people’s peaceful dreams in this study instead of proper meditating at such a late hour?”

The person who could speak in such a tone in this place was naturally Lady Wan.

But Lady Wan’s voice had not only no trace of the years but was also quite enchanting.

Each word carried a flirtatious tone.

The next moment, a man’s voice came faintly:

“What a disturbance of peaceful dreams, do you even care about your daughter’s well-being?”

This tone was unmistakably Wan Yutang.

Just now, Lady Wan had mentioned ’proper meditating’; was this an early emergence from retreat?

Wan Yilan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly; she didn’t seem too pleased, but instead more troubled.

Yet in the next moment, she seemed oddly satisfied.

It was as if she harbored a triumphant scheme.

Su Mo couldn’t decipher the young lady’s thoughts; he found it quite peculiar.

But even so, it wasn’t as bizarre as the couple outside.

These spousal nighttime talks were not happening in a bedroom, but in a study…

Whether Wan Yutang knows what happened inside Lady Wan’s bedroom, Su Mo wondered.

As he thought, suddenly he heard Lady Wan let out a cold laugh:

“Life or death? Hasn’t she sought death many times already?

“Ever since half a month ago, when the death news of that Wan surnamed thief came back, she has been wanting to die.

“How many times have I saved her already?

“I’ve advised her earnestly and spat myself dry, to what avail?

“If she weren’t so bent on dying, why would I have let her marry?

“Once a woman is married, some things in her heart die as well.

“Then, naturally, she will resign to her fate.”

“Don’t speak as if you truly care about her life and death… If so, why would you be indifferent tonight?”

Wan Yutang’s voice had a definite edge of anger.

But Lady Wan’s tone was even colder:

“I don’t care about her life or death?

“True, I naturally don’t care.

“Just a daughter; if she’s gone, I can simply have another.

“But let’s not pretend it’s just me who doesn’t care.

“What about you? Have you ever cared?

“If you truly did, why would you allow Zhu Xiu to tell her about Su Mo coming to Wusheng Hall?

“You knew well that Su Mo killed Wan Cangxin, and Yilan would hate him to the bone.

“Knowing this news, with her reckless nature, she would certainly try to assassinate Lord Su.

“But… Wan Yutang, do you intend to use her to kill Su Mo, or are you planning on letting Su Mo kill your own daughter?

“So you can easily drive her out of Wusheng Hall, preventing your grand plans from being discovered?”

This couple’s nighttime talk lacked any consideration and seemed oblivious to the fact that their conversation was being clearly overheard by Su Mo and Wan Yilan hidden in the secret chamber.

At this moment, Su Mo was certainly astounded.

Wan Yilan was even more chilled to the core, her whole body cold.
