"Who?!" Wei Ziyao could not believe her ears.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of him. He's someone from the Jianghu." Wei Yang thought that Wei Ziyao had never heard of him.
"No … I know this person. Isn't he the boss of Hundred Flower Gardens? Since his property is in Shenjing, why didn't we look for him before? "
"Hundred Flower Gardens is just a part of the Mysterious Pavilion's property. He has a grudge against our family, so how could he live in Shenjing? There's no need to waste manpower looking for trouble with Hundred Flower Gardens. But now, it seems that something is wrong.
There could be two Mister Thousand Faces in the Jianghu.
But there was definitely only one Mysterious Pavilion, and only one Hundred Flower Gardens.
"Alright, I understand. I'll be careful and keep an eye on it."
Wei Ziyao muttered to herself. There was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She did not know how she got out of the sanatorium, nor did she know how she got on the carriage.
She only knew that by the time she reacted, the carriage was already on its way to the palace.
Ki Chien-chul sat beside her without saying a word.
Until she looked up.
The way she looked at Ki Chien-chul was not the same as before. Now, her eyes were filled with suspicion and confusion, and even some wariness.
"Explain." Wei Ziyao looked at him. "So, you knew about this from the start, right? Heh … "
Wei Ziyao laughed self-deprecatingly. "You're Mister Thousand Faces. How could you not know? So, you've been lying to me all this time. You've been wearing a mask of hypocrisy to deceive me all this time?"
"I …" Ki Chien-chul did not know how to answer.
He looked at Wei Ziyao. His heart was beating so fast that he wanted to vomit.
He did not know how to explain, let alone how to get away with it.
"Yes." In the end, all the words he wanted to say turned into this one word.
He had always known that there was a feud between the two families.
"So, you're my mother's murderer, and you promised the emperor to marry me. You could have refused! Even if Wei Ziyao kept pestering you, you could have refused! You agreed! Why?! "
Wei Ziyao suddenly raised her voice and looked at Ki Chien-chul in confusion.
The latter lowered his head. "Your mother's death has nothing to do with me."
"I know."
I know? Ki Chien-chul raised his head in surprise when he heard those words.
"You believe me?" He was overjoyed that his wife believed him.
"If I didn't believe you, you wouldn't have walked out of the sanatorium alive."
Indeed, if he didn't believe her, Wei Ziyao would have told Wei Heng.
"Although you are hiding something from me, at the very least, I don't think you are so bad that you want to marry me even though you killed my mother."
After saying that, Wei Ziyao turned her face away. "What I'm angry about is that you could have told me in advance and explained to me in advance. We could have solved the problem together, and I could have even talked to my father on your behalf. But you let me hear this news without any preparation. What do you think I was thinking at that time?"
Ki Chien-chul was relieved to hear Wei Ziyao say that, but at the same time, guilt washed over him like a wave.
"I'm sorry. Actually, I wanted to tell you in advance. I had a few chances to say it, but I didn't in the end. I've been walking on thin ice all day because I was afraid that you would find out … I didn't expect that Wei Shuai would expose this matter without any preparation."
The words' walking on thin ice 'perfectly described Ki Chien-chul's feelings.
He had been living in fear all day.
But he was also afraid that if he confessed, it would completely destroy Wei Ziyao and his happiness.
