My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 313 - 129: Portrait

Prince Qi Mansion.

Seeing Yun Wanye, the guard at the gate did not obstruct him and led him directly into the front courtyard of the Prince Manor.

Before long, Mo Yuanhao appeared in casual clothes.

"Ah Yue, why are you here? Is there something you need?"

He looked at Yun Wanye with puzzled eyes.

Seeing him arrive so quickly, Yun Wanye was momentarily unsure if Su Qianxue had managed to infiltrate or meet with Mo Yuanhao, so he discreetly probed.

"I had nothing to do today, so I took the liberty to visit and hoped to have a drink with the Prince. I hope I’m not interrupting your plans?"

At these words, Mo Yuanhao let out a light laugh, sitting beside him, "To be honest, tell me why you really came to see me."

Mo Yuanhao didn’t believe a word of Yun Wanye’s explanation.

The last time this guy came knocking at the Prince Qi Mansion’s door was for his birthday banquet this year; on regular days, he wouldn’t come even if called. If there really was nothing, he wouldn’t be here.

"Nothing escapes the Prince!"

Yun Wanye sighed in a pretended troubled manner, "Indeed, I came because of Yao’er."

Mo Yuanhao wasn’t so easily fooled. If he didn’t give him a reasonable explanation, he would persist in his suspicions.

And Yun Wanye couldn’t reveal his true intentions, so he reluctantly used Yun Wanyao as a shield.

Upon hearing this, Mo Yuanhao frowned, a flash of worry quickly passing through his eyes.

"What’s wrong with Yao’er?"

Yun Wanye coughed lightly, suppressing his guilty conscience, and said earnestly, "Don’t worry, the Prince. Yao’er is fine. What I want to say is, those who harbor ill intentions towards her..."

"Are you talking about Pei Yu?"

The name surfaced instinctively in Mo Yuanhao’s mind, his eyes narrowing slightly as a dangerous glint quickly flashed through them.

Noticing the change in his expression, Yun Wanye’s gaze shifted imperceptibly.

"It seems the Prince already knows, so I won’t say more. Last time when Yao’er’s carriage met with an accident, I heard the Prince was investigating it. I wanted to ask if you found anything?"

"To be frank, my father also dispatched people to investigate, but they found nothing. That’s why I came to inquire about any news you might have."

So that’s it!

After Yun Wanye mentioned this case, Mo Yuanhao nodded slightly and took out a folded piece of drawing paper from his pocket, placing it on the table.

"I am indeed investigating this matter and have uncovered some clues."

Without waiting for Yun Wanye to ask, he continued, "My men have inquired door-to-door in the area, and indeed found several eyewitnesses."

"According to the witnesses, the two attackers suddenly assaulted the guards following in the shadows. One went after the carriage, while the other stayed behind to erase the traces on the ground."

"A rough description of the one who chased the carriage was provided, and this image was sketched based on their account."

Ending his words, Mo Yuanhao’s gaze fell on the folded paper.

Yun Wanye frowned, picked up the drawing, and unfolded it, revealing an all-too-familiar face. Despite the many creases in the paper, the man’s handsome appearance was unmistakable.

The features and demeanor of the man looked strikingly similar to Pei Yu.

He pressed his lips together, remaining silent for a long time.

Mo Yuanhao couldn’t discern what he was thinking, or whether he believed him, so he took the initiative to break the silence.

"There’s still no solid evidence for this matter. I understand that a single drawing might be hard for you to believe."

"After all, a drawing can be forged."

"But I assure you that I had no involvement in the creation of this drawing; it was purely based on the eyewitnesses’ descriptions."

Yun Wanye nodded, placing the drawing back on the table.

"I trust the Prince, of course, but..."

"But it’s hard to believe he’s the one who did it, right?"

Mo Yuanhao took a light sip from his teacup, calmly intercepting his words.

"Yes, it’s hard for me to believe he would do such a thing. What could be his motive?"

Yun Wanye nodded emphatically, sighing as he put on a convincing act.

Within the inner voice of his little sister, it seemed the whole family suspected Pei Yu of being behind Yun Wanyao’s incident. How could he be an exception?

Feigning disbelief was merely because Mo Yuanhao thought he wouldn’t believe it otherwise.

"But the truth is, there’s a great chance he did it. As for the motive, perhaps it was a hero rescuing a damsel, or maybe something else."

At these last words, Mo Yuanhao frowned deeply, his handsome face filled with perplexity.
