Chapter 1752: Chapter 1745: Leng Muling’s Provocation, You’re Blaming Me?

"Whose people are you? She is a madam of the Lu residence, and instead of helping me drive her away, you’re protecting her?" Hong Lian’s eyes widened as she screamed hysterically.

The steward knew, but he didn’t say anything, which didn’t mean they weren’t aware.

Some people, regardless of her status or whose wife she was, only knew that she was someone cherished by the Lord and needed to be well-protected.

With the steward bringing people to protect her, Leng Muling approached Hong Lian, pinching her face and warning her, "I know everything you’ve done to Mo Qi,

I am here to warn you that you have his child and are living in his house. You’d better settle down and take care of the child. If you drug him again or cause him harm, I, Leng Muling, will not let you off!"

"Just you?" Hong Lian countered, gripping Leng Muling’s wrist, "You’re just a spoiled Eldest Young Miss; what right do you have to order me like this?"

If it were before, she would surely twist Leng Muling’s hand and strip her skin!

But Leng Muling wasn’t the same as before either. Competing with Hong Lian in strength, she was in no way inferior, "I am the Eldest Young Miss, but I am not just spoiled; I am proud!

I’m telling you, even though I can’t marry him, I will never allow anyone to harm him! Otherwise, just you wait and see, I assure you I’ll take him away from your side, giving you no chance to harm him again!"

If it weren’t for her being bound by rules and propriety from a young age, if it weren’t for her status, she would have longed to be with Mo Qi without any reservations, preventing him from suffering like this!

The resolute parting back then was in the belief that Mo Qi and Hong Lian were in love and could live a good life.

But she could never have imagined that every day he spent at home was torture, wearing him out with injuries!

Hong Lian tangled with her, her face distorted beyond recognition by hatred, "You unfaithful slut! You still want to take him away? In your dreams!"

"Just try to see if I can! Even if I’m married, this entire Mo Family is still all protective of me! Wherever their master’s heart lies, that’s who they’ll protect, do you understand?"

Leng Muling gripped her neck, shouting coldly in anger.

Hong Lian suddenly froze. She gritted her teeth, her nose almost twisting out of shape, "Slut! Slut! You slut!"

Concealed in her sleeve was a poisoned needle, ready to strike at Leng Muling.

"Whoosh—"

"Bang!"

A gust of wind came, knocking Hong Lian back several steps, almost making her lose her footing.

Mo Qi quickly descended, pulling Leng Muling back, "Are you alright? Are you hurt by her?"

Leng Muling spun around, a bit dizzy, but seeing the worry in Mo Qi’s eyes, she immediately shook her head, "No... it’s nothing."

Mo Qi protected her behind him, pointing coldly at Hong Lian without asking for the reason, "If you hurt her, I’ll make you pay a hundredfold!"

"Mo Qi! Hubby!" Hong Lian cried out in agony, "How could you do this to me? I am your wife, the one who gave birth to your child! And you’re protecting another man’s wife to scold me?"

If Mo Qi hadn’t held back, she would have definitely been injured and coughing up blood.

Clearly, Leng Muling was the one to provoke first, so how could he blame her?

"Shut up!"

Mo Qi’s face remained cold, uninterested in her cries, "Take care of Huan’er well, or else you’ll never step out of this courtyard gate for the rest of your life!"

Hong Lian chased after him, screaming and cursing, tripping over Mo Huan without realizing it.

Mo Huan fell to the ground, stunned for a while before starting to cry.

Mo Qi wanted to take the child away, but the nurse rushed in, snatching the child back to Hong Lian’s side. Hong Lian held Mo Huan, glaring at Mo Qi warily, "He’s my child; you won’t take him away!"
