Chapter 925: Escaped
Hurrying back to the Qiao Residence, the two people specially went to their mother’s Beautiful Vista Court to take a look.
Although Wei Ziqin’s complexion was a bit pale, but generally speaking, she was mostly fine.
However, when inquiring over the details from her, she didn’t know what had happened at all.
Seeing that her mother was weary, Qiao Mu didn’t plan to speak with her any longer, and she left the room together with the crown prince after exhorting Xiayun.
Qiao Zhongbang also walked out with the duo, anxiously questioning, “What exactly is going on? Why did Ding Tingding throw your mom into a royal maid’s room in Clearwater Fine Park?”
“I heard that that room had been unoccupied for a long time. If Xiao Mo didn’t send people to make a thorough search, I’m afraid that no one would have discovered that your mom had fainted there even after five to six days.”
Upon mentioning this matter, Qiao Mu was fuming, and she clenched her fists tightly. “Dad, it’s my fault this time. I didn’t take that matter to heart. It’s me who dragged Mom into this.”
All along, Qiao Mu didn’t treat this matter of Ding Tingding wanting to come steal her as a major issue, yet in the end… her mother got implicated for no reason.
This was simply outrageous.
That senseless person! Is he dead yet?
While holding Qiao Mu’s hand, Mo Lian escorted her to Nanzhu Garden’s entrance before saying softly, “Xiao’ye brought people to search downstream but didn’t find any traces of Ding Tingding. He had probably escaped.”
This d*mn stinky man! A cruel glint flitted across Qiao Mu’s eyes.
“Do you know who he is? The woman we encountered in the underground village that day, the snake beauty. Do you still remember?”
“She is Ding Tingding?” Realization instantly dawned on Mo Lian. “Is it that he grasps some kind of superpower? That allows him to change his body figure and facial features as he wishes?”
This was much more brilliant than any other disguise technique. Afterall, no matter how mutable one’s disguise technique was, how could you change a man into a woman, or an adult into a child? Even his voice could change into that of Wei Ziqin’s.
“Mhm, his superpower really is very special. It allows him to shift his skeletal structure, organs, and even meridians at will.”
That was why it looked like she had stabbed him in the heart, but she couldn’t say whether he had shifted his body’s vital organs at his moment of imminent peril.
Qiao Mu knitted her brows with slight regret.
If she didn’t dispose of this person, he would eventually become quite a bit of trouble.
If he remained under cover, where should they go find an ever-changing person in this boundless sea of people?
Mo Lian grasped Qiao Mu’s small hand tightly. “Qiaoqiao, that underground organization wouldn’t have their eyes on you, right?”
Otherwise, why would Ding Tingding want to approach his Qiaoqiao again and again and again?
Qiao Mu sneered. “If they dare come, I’ll make sure that they can’t return.”
Even he didn’t have any clues regarding the underground village at the moment. Previously, he had instructed the various fortifications to meticulously pay attention to whether there were any anomalies in the ghost villages nearby. However, they all said that they didn’t make any discoveries.
He wondered if it was because these people put up their guard and started to lay low after he swept through the snake beauty’s underground village last time.
“Alright, don’t think too much. You should also go to sleep earlier.” Qiao Mu yanked his hand as she said softly.
A perfectly good Lantern Festival all got messed up by that senseless person.
In the end, Qiao Mu was a bit choked with resentment, but after sending Mo Lian off, she still washed up and lay down on her bed.
After midnight passed.
Qiao Mu opened her bright eyes and promptly sat up.
With a flick of her finger, an invisibility talisman windlessly split apart.
