Chapter 1492

Seeing a pain-filled expression cross Mo Hanting's face as he recalled the brilliant stratagem his master had conceived the night before... Bai Yueqiu continued, "Do you know just how demeaning it was for my master, always so noble and aloof, to set aside her dignity and love you in the hopes of saving Nuannuan? Do you know how pitiful she was when she took a bullet for you to protect Nian Nian, risking half her life, and yet had to suffer from your suspicion and shame? Do you realize just how desperate she was when you sent men to ruin her life in the mountains?" Mo Hanting shook his head, claiming he had never ordered anyone to ever harm her. But before he could say anything else, Bai Yueqiu resumed, "If you had shown just a tiny bit of affection in the beginning, if you had fulfilled even a fraction of your duty as a husband, my master would still be alive. Since she could not find any hope in you, she was left with no choice but to risk her own life to ensure her child’s survival.
