My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 12: She Truly Worries Herself Sick for This Family
’Boom...’
It was as if a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Yun Wanyao stood frozen in place, staring blankly at him, her face pale and unsightly.
Behind the rockery, Yun Zheng’s eyes suddenly darkened.
Sure enough, this boy mentioned the betrothal to Yao’er, and Xiao Si’s inner thoughts came true once again, precisely as predicted.
"What’s wrong with Yao’er?"
Mo Yuanhao frowned, his gaze probing, and Yun Wanyao immediately lowered her head, suppressing the panic in her heart, trying hard to pull her lips into a forced smile.
"This is a bit too sudden, I, I wasn’t mentally prepared."
"Heh~"
Mo Yuanhao chuckled lowly, believing her words.
"Girls will grow up and get married in due time. Our engagement was bestowed by the emperor, and it’s been many years now. Marrying you is only a matter of time."
In fact, the emperor originally intended for the daughter of Duke Ning to be the Crown Princess Consort of Da Wu Country, the future queen.
But he had secretly admired Yao’er since childhood, and after learning this, he knelt before the emperor and pleaded, eventually securing this engagement.
Only, she was unaware of all these.
"Uh, marriage is no small matter. If we just decide like this, it might be too hasty. How about this, I’ll talk it over with my parents in private first, and you wait for my news, okay?"
Yun Wanyao’s mind was a mess, filled with Yun Wanqing’s earlier inner thoughts. She didn’t know what to do and had no choice but to take a delaying tactic.
She needed to think carefully about this matter and discuss it with her mother.
Since her mother could also hear her younger sister’s inner thoughts, she would surely help her make a good plan.
Thinking of this, Yun Wanyao broke out in a cold sweat.
She was sure that if she hadn’t heard her younger sister’s thoughts beforehand, she would have happily agreed to Mo Yuanhao’s marriage proposal today.
Then, would she end up as her younger sister’s thoughts envisioned?
Yun Wanyao’s heart ached as if bleeding, so painful that she almost couldn’t breathe.
The man in front of her, whom she shared mutual childhood affection with, was known to all as her fiancé, and would be her husband, but he would later fall in love with another woman.
"Alright, I’ll listen to Yao’er. I’ll wait longer, but you must give me good news, Yao’er. Don’t disappoint me."

Outside the study, a confidant stood straight as a pillar at the bottom of the steps.
Heavy footsteps approached from afar, and the Duke, handsome and dignified in his prime, walked with his hands behind his back, his face dark and appearing displeased.
"Master."
Lu Wu hurriedly bowed, filled with puzzlement. The Duke was overjoyed at having a precious daughter, smiling widely at all times these last few days. What’s happening today?
Who had the audacity to offend him?
"Come in and talk."
Yun Zheng glanced at him, heading towards the study, and Lu Wu quickly followed.
"Is the matter settled?"
"Yes, I have instructed people to harshly discipline Yang Xin’er as you ordered. Here’s the confession you wanted, plus a letter received from the back courtyard."
Lu Wu respectfully presented two folded documents and a letter.
The documents were confession letters forced from Yang Xin’er under Yun Zheng’s order, imitating Lady Yun’s handwriting, detailing her secret correspondence with Lin Wei’an under Madam Yun’s name.
Both documents contained identical content.
As for the letter, it was sent by Lin Wei’an.
Since discovering Yang Xin’er’s secret correspondence with Lin Wei’an under Lady Yun’s name, Yun Zheng controlled the bribed household who helped deliver the letters, and this letter naturally ended up in his hands.
After quickly scanning through Lin Wei’an’s letter, Yun Zheng was infuriated, gnashing his teeth in anger.
This damned scoundrel, already with a family and children of his own, still coveting someone else’s wife, not feeling ashamed before his children, a total disgrace.
He picked up a brush and furiously penned a scathing letter to Lin Wei’an.
It took ten pages of insults before his anger subsided slightly.
After drying the ink, he folded Yang Xin’er’s handwritten confession and the scathing letter together, handing them to Lu Wu.
"Find a chance to intercept that brat Lin Wei’an and personally deliver this, along with Yang Xin’er, to him. Remember to pass on a few words for me, just tell him..."
The words to pass on were certainly not kind.
Besides explaining the entire situation, it was filled with insults and threats, warning Lin Wei’an to give up on Ye Xiwei and not to secretly write to her again.
Going to insult the Vice Minister of the Secretariat was certainly not an easy task. Lu Wu touched his nose awkwardly but took the envelope with steely determination.
"After completing this task, go with Ming Zhan and keep an eye on King Qi, be cautious not to be discovered."
The Duke narrowed his eyes, his expression stormy, issuing an order of hellish difficulty.
Lu Wu immediately felt that compared to this, insulting the Vice Minister didn’t seem so difficult after all.
He had underestimated it.
"Yes."
Soon, Lu Wu left, and Yun Zheng burned Lin Wei’an’s letters, keeping the remaining confession letter safely before heading towards the main courtyard.
In the bedroom, Yun Wanqing had already woken up, eaten, and been changed, blinking as she focused intently on listening to her mother and sister chatting.
Though newly born, she was genuinely worried about the family.
"Mother, King Qi said he wants to come to our house and propose in the next few days, and after I have my coming-of-age ceremony, he wants to marry me."
Before returning, Yun Wanyao had already calmed herself. Now, as she spoke, she slightly bowed her head, pretending to be a shy little girl.
Lady Yun had already been mentally prepared, so her emotions remained unchanged, but Yun Wanqing’s eyes flashed anxiously.
[As expected, the plot is strong. Sister will be harmed by that bastard Mo Yuanhao.]
[In no more than seven days, the heroine will encounter the hero, and soon after, the hero will find you annoying.]
[Ah, what do I do, if only I could send dreams now, I must send a dream to my sister.]
"How did Yao’er respond to King Qi?"
Hearing the baby’s inner thoughts, Lady Yun calmly asked while pressing her lips.
"Since the proposal is no small matter, I wanted to consult you first before replying to him."
Yun Wanyao replied truthfully.
[Hmm hmm hmm??? What’s going on? Why is the plot collapsing again?? Did I enter a fake book?]
[Or is sister also a Book Traveler??? Or has sister been reborn?]
Yun Wanqing’s eyes widened in shock, her imagination running wild.
In the book it clearly mentioned that when King Qi proposed, Yun Wanyao was overwhelmed with joy and agreed impulsively, ignoring her parents entirely.
Three days later, King Qi arrived as promised to propose.
With gongs and drums blaring, white horses paving the way, King Qi personally brought over seventy-two bridal gifts, causing a sensational stir throughout Haojing.
Therefore, when King Qi later fell for the heroine and grew tired of Yun Wanyao, wishing to annul the engagement, it was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
