My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 345 - 147: Forceful Coercion

Fearing that Yun Wanyao might instruct the guards to break down the door in the next moment, Mo Zhaozhao quickly spoke up, intending to calm her down first.

"Alright, Princess, you get dressed first, and I’ll wait for you outside."

Outside, upon vaguely hearing Mo Zhaozhao’s words, Yun Wanyao felt a slight sense of relief.

Thankfully, the Princess wasn’t in any trouble, but merely sleeping so soundly that she didn’t respond to calls.

[Hmm, why do I feel like the Princess’s voice sounds a bit guilty?]

Yun Wanqing tilted her little head, looking thoughtful, and the more she pondered, the more she felt Mo Zhaozhao was hiding some secret.

[Curious though I am, this is none of my business, and besides, who doesn’t have secrets?]

[Yun Wanqing, you must hold back, don’t use spiritual power to spy on others, it’s wrong to peek into others’ affairs!!!]

After forcefully brainwashing herself a few times, she finally suppressed all her curiosity, leaning lazily against Xiao Tao.

Yun Wanyao: "..."

It was the first time she heard her little sister call her name in her mind and seriously warn herself not to spy on others’ secrets.

It seems the little sister indeed has principles.

But, did the Princess really seem guilty?

Just now, she was too busy knocking on the door to notice anything.

Suddenly, Nanny Zhou looked at her with a smile and said, "The Princess is awake, Miss Yun, we owe you thanks for this."

Upon hearing the voice, Yun Wanyao also looked at her and said, "You’re welcome, Nanny. Since the Princess is awake, please have someone prepare a meal; the Princess must be quite hungry."

"Miss Yun is right; I’ll have someone bring the meal right away."

"Good."

Afterward, Yun Wanyao instructed someone to take her to the side room, where she would wait for Mo Zhaozhao.

Since there was a secret hidden in Mo Zhaozhao’s room, it was better for her to keep some distance, lest she see something she shouldn’t.

Moreover, the little sister needed to drink milk.

After Nanny Zhou had someone go to pass on the meal, she stood patiently outside the door, waiting for Mo Zhaozhao’s orders.

Thinking that since the Princess was already awake, she would soon call in the maid to serve her in dressing and washing up, but surprisingly, the order never came.

This left Nanny Zhou quite puzzled, with her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

She felt that the Princess was somehow acting strangely today but did not know the reason.

Filled with questions, she didn’t dare to ask rashly and had to endure patiently.

"Nanny?"

At this moment, Mo Zhaozhao’s chief maid looked up at her, with a delicate face showing some confusion and consultation.

Obviously, she also sensed something amiss and wanted Nanny Zhou to decide.

Nanny Zhou’s face remained calm, lowering her voice to say softly, "No rush, the Princess has not spoken, so let’s wait a bit longer."

Inside the hall.

Mo Zhaozhao, suppressing her temper, looked at the boy wearing only his undergarments, her voice filled with frustration, "What should we do? If I don’t call someone in to serve me soon, Nanny and Jin Zhi will become suspicious."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Yun Wanye pulled the quilt over, lay down, and closed his eyes, using his actions to show he wouldn’t care about this matter.

Seeing his manner, Mo Zhaozhao widened her eyes, first feeling disbelief, then extreme anger.

"Get up, don’t sleep!!!"

She grabbed his clothes, forcefully pulling him up, angrily saying, "Do you dare say this isn’t your issue?"

"It was you who sneaked into my room, ruining my reputation. Do you believe I would let the elder brother chop off your head... ah..."

Her wrist was suddenly caught, and the next moment, she was pulled down onto his chest with considerable strength.

He pressed her shoulders with both hands, smiling mockingly as he said, "The Princess Mansion is heavily guarded. Do you think anyone would believe you if you told them I sneaked in?"

"Don’t be silly, Princess; no one would believe it. Everyone would only think you secretly summoned me. As for what you summoned me to do..."

"Heh, I think the maid and Nanny who come to serve the Princess for dressing soon will see very clearly."

Mo Zhaozhao: "..."

She clenched her fists, gritting her teeth, and said, "How exactly did you slip into my hall? Tell me, were my Hidden Guard bribed by you?"

"Well, Princess, that’s something you don’t need to ask. Even if you ask, I won’t tell you."

If he told her the truth, how could he come and go as he pleased in the future, as if it were his domain?

This annoying pest, truly... Mo Zhaozhao was so infuriated her head spun, almost fainting, and moreover, she was feeling hungry.

"What exactly do you want?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Wanye’s eyes slightly brightened; after all this commotion, this was the question he had been waiting for.

Hearing it with his ears now, he almost beamed with happiness, restraining himself with great effort to not show it on his face.

He didn’t mince words, getting straight to the point, "Cancel the marriage with Lu Huaixin."

That guy had been fed a drug by the two of them that rendered him impotent; she certainly couldn’t marry him and spend her life as a widow, right?

Mo Zhaozhao’s pupils instantly contracted, as if struck by lightning, staring at him blankly.

"What, what did you say?"

A moment later, her lips moved, speaking in disbelief.

"Didn’t hear me?"

He chuckled and said, "Then I’ll repeat it, please listen carefully, Princess. I want you to break the engagement with Lu Huaixin!"

This time, Mo Zhaozhao was finally sure she hadn’t misheard. But why?

Everything was fine, why would he suddenly say such a thing?

Although Lu Huaixin did such a thing, and she forcibly fed him that kind of medicine, as for their engagement, she still hasn’t figured out what to do.

The whole country knows she’s about to marry Lu Huaixin. If she suddenly breaks off the engagement, how would the ministers and common folk view her?

Seeing her hesitate, Yun Wanye’s eyes quickly flashed with a cold glint. He smiled, his voice carrying a dangerous threat.

"If the Princess doesn’t agree, then I’ll have to call someone in to let them see what the Princess has done to me..."

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was tightly covered.

Mo Zhaozhao knew all too well that he would absolutely do what he said, fearing he might really call someone, letting them discover what happened. She instinctively covered his mouth.

She looked at him urgently and said, "Are you crazy? If someone saw us like this now, not only would my reputation be ruined, but yours wouldn’t survive either."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wanye raised his eyebrows, looking completely unbothered.

Reputation — he really didn’t care about it.

Even without this incident, his reputation in Haojing wasn’t great, so he didn’t mind it getting worse.

"The matter of breaking the engagement, I will consider it. But it’s not a small matter; it requires careful planning."

At least it’s wise to inform the elder brother first.

Thinking about having to talk to Mo Yuanlin about this made Mo Zhaozhao feel a headache.

Back then, the elder brother strongly opposed her being with Lu Huaixin, but no matter what he said, she wouldn’t listen.

Eventually, the elder brother let her have her way, but what ended up happening is now she finds herself at the point of having to speak with him about breaking off the engagement.

"It’s not consideration, it’s a must!!!"

Yun Wanye pulled her hand away with a voice full of vicious warning.

Her stomach growled fiercely, Mo Zhaozhao was so faint from hunger she couldn’t continue giving the matter much thought, and she nodded forcefully.

"Alright, you must break the engagement, is that okay?"

Of course, at this moment she was merely placating him, merely wanting to get rid of him quickly. As for anything else, she’d wait until meeting with her elder brother.

"Are you serious, Princess?"

Yun Wanye squinted, his deep dark eyes probing her.

Afraid he would see through her ruse, Mo Zhaozhao immediately assumed an incredibly serious look.

"I am serious, but can you leave now? I’m about to starve to death."

"You better mean it, Mo Zhaozhao. If you dare deceive me, I’ll certainly make you regret it."

As if he hadn’t heard her, he harshly warned, his eyes fierce, like a vicious young wolf.

Mo Zhaozhao felt a chill run down her spine, her nerves inexplicably taut, so tense she was almost at a loss. She didn’t even notice how he left.

All she remembered was before he left, he kissed her on the forehead and whispered in her ear, ’Then I’m leaving, Princess~’

A moment later, Mo Zhaozhao reached out and touched her forehead blankly, where it seemed warmth and softness still lingered.

Her face suddenly flushed red, murmuring, "What on earth does he mean?"

Naturally, no one answered her.

Mo Zhaozhao snapped back to reality, meticulously checking the room and confirming that all the soiled outer garments and shoes were gone before calling the maidservants in.

Changing clothes, washing her face, brushing her teeth, tying her hair back, applying makeup, serving dishes~

Nanny Zhou and four maids busily attended to their tasks while Mo Zhaozhao vacantly enjoyed their service. It wasn’t until she sat at the dining table that she thought of Yun Wanyao.

She suddenly turned to Nanny Zhou and asked, "Nanny, where’s Ah Yao?"

"Reporting to the Princess, Miss Yun is in the side room. Does the Princess need me to bring Miss Yun over?"

Mo Zhaozhao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Nanny, go fetch Ah Yao. Eating alone is terribly dull. Ah Yao can come and chat with me."

"Yes, I’ll go right away."

Soon, Nanny Zhou returned, followed by Yun Wanyao, who carried a bundle in her arms.

As for Xiao Tao, she stayed behind waiting in the side room.

Her gaze fell on the bundle in Yun Wanyao’s arms, Mo Zhaozhao’s eyes immediately lit up, abandoning her meal, she set down her chopsticks and got up to greet them.

"Ah Yao, why did you bring little sister over too? Quickly, let me see my little sister."

"Hmm, the little one is bored staying in the mansion every day, so I brought her out for a change of scenery."

Yun Wanyao responded with a soft smile, her gaze unobtrusively studying Mo Zhaozhao, thinking her complexion looked alright, apparently not having suffered any significant setbacks.

"Wow, such a strong smell of wine, did the Princess drink all night? No wonder she slept until now."

"Wait, besides the smell of wine in the Princess’s bedroom, why is there another very familiar scent?"
