My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 1363: The Reason for Not Wanting to Leave
As soon as Xinghua spoke, there was a sudden swish, and when she came to her senses, a long sword was already placed against her neck.
The icy touch made not only her body tremble, but her heart as well.
"The lord is giving you a chance by letting you speak. Don’t be ungrateful; do you think you have the right to negotiate with the lord?" Mu Yi said coldly.
It’s not that they are bullying the weak, but rather, the rules of the world are just like this.
Everywhere, it is the survival of the fittest.
Xinghua is pitiful now because of her low status; if one day she could rise to a higher position, she might be even more ruthless than they are now.
This is not entirely impossible.
However, the current reality is as such. Xinghua was bought by him, her life and death in his hands. Being willing to return the indenture contract and let her go was already a form of grace.
Otherwise, holding her indenture contract, even if he killed her, it would definitely be in accordance with the laws of Dongyue Country.
"I’ll speak... I’ll speak..."
With the sword already at her throat, did she have any choice left?
Xinghua’s hesitation made Mu Yi press the sword closer by a fraction.
"The reason the young lady is unwilling to follow the lord to the capital city is that she already has someone she loves in her heart..."
...
At the doorway, Mu Yi looked at the dragged out Xinghua and said, "I hope you know what should be said and what should not be said. Keep in mind, sickness comes from the mouth, and so does trouble. Don’t do anything foolish!"
After speaking, Mu Yi directly threw her a certain amount of silver, "This silver is enough for you to settle for a while."
Of course, it’s only barely enough to settle.
It’s said that if you betray once, you will not be trusted a hundred times. This little girl still hasn’t figured out her position.
No matter how flawed the young lady is, she is still the lord’s blood, and for this girl to speak of the young lady’s secrets in front of the lord, though everyone harbors displeasure, they would certainly not have any good feelings toward a tattletale.
Picking up the silver from the ground in humiliation, tears of innocence remained on Xinghua’s face as her frail figure gradually melted into the streets.
Returning to An Bingfeng’s side, Mu Yi asked, "Since the young lady has someone she loves, how does the lord intend to handle this matter?"
An Bingfeng merely smiled faintly, "There is only one opportunity. She chose not to go to the capital city, so she has already made her choice. I have said long ago, I won’t force her."
"As for Lord County Magistrate over there..." Mu Yi hesitated.
"As long as her safety is ensured, everything else is up to her own choices!"
After all, they are father and daughter. The reason he went to the County Office was also only to ensure her safety.
To speak heartlessly, An Ning not going to the capital city actually saved him a lot of trouble.
After all, he does not want anyone he finds unpleasant in his domain.
For reasons unknown, An Bingfeng’s face grew increasingly gloomy, exuding an aura of melancholy.
Mu Yi showed a worried expression but did not express it, merely clasping his fists and retreating.
Since he encountered the lord in his early years, he has been following him.
Therefore, he does not know what happened in the An Family in the past.
But he could guess that the lord must have experienced too many unbearable things in the An Family, which is why he now exhibits many actions difficult for others to understand.
Mu Yi knew that if the lord did not care at all about the young lady’s life or death, he wouldn’t have taken the trouble to personally come here to fetch her.
