My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 289 - 121: But Little Sister’s Guess Isn’t Without Reason

Chapter 289: Chapter 121: But Little Sister’s Guess Isn’t Without Reason

Lady Yun, holding a handkerchief, gently wiped the moisture from the corner of her lips, her voice choked as she asked her.

Looking at the woman with reddened eyes in front of her, Yun Wanyao was slightly stunned, her muddled mind gradually clearing, slowly recalling what happened before she fell unconscious.

She remembered the carriage suddenly went out of control, and in panic, she cried out for help; it was Pei Yu who rescued her.

And then, she knew nothing else.

Thinking of this person, Yun Wanyao pursed her lips slightly, her eyes darkened a few shades.

"Mother, how long have I been unconscious?"

"A whole day, Yao’er. You haven’t told me yet, where are you feeling unwell? Right, we need to call the Household Doctor over to check on you."

Lady Yun turned her head to look at Hua Wu beside her and said, "Hua Wu, quickly go fetch the Household Doctor and tell him the young lady is awake. Also, go to the kitchen and prepare some food for her."

"Yes."

Hua Wu hurriedly ran out.

Pei Yu stepped forward, leaned down, and looked at Yun Wanyao with concern.

"Yao, you finally woke up. If you hadn’t, I would have been worried sick."

Lady Yun: "..."

Yun Wanqing: [...]

[Stop it, from what I see, this whole incident with my sister likely has something to do with you, and you still have the face to claim you’re worried?]

[Besides, don’t you see my mother is still here? How can you try to steal the spotlight? Can you really be more worried than my mother about my sister?] 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

[Putting that aside, you know perfectly well my sister is already betrothed, yet you deliberately say such inappropriate things. Aren’t you just trying to make trouble for her?]

[Dog, truly a scoundrel.]

Still groggy from her prolonged sleep, Yun Wanyao’s mind wasn’t fully alert.

Upon hearing Yun Wanqing’s thoughts, she was first startled, then a quick flash of surprise crossed her eyes.

The implication of her little sister was that the sudden loss of control of her carriage could very well have been orchestrated by Pei Yu?

She hadn’t considered that at all, only thinking she was unlucky to encounter an accident, and he happened to be the one to rescue her.

But her sister’s suspicion wasn’t without merit.

She had secretly brought guards, yet after the carriage went out of control, they were nowhere to be seen, which was utterly illogical.

When the carriage lost control, either the guards were led away or knocked out; in any case, whichever possibility it was, it was done on purpose, clearly not an accident.

What was this fellow planning by extending his hand over her head?

One thing was certain: he didn’t want her dead, or else he wouldn’t have appeared just in time to save her and send her back home.

Yun Wanyao’s heart stirred slightly; since his target was her, she might as well act as his bait. She wanted to see exactly what he intended to do.

"Thank you, Brother Pei, for your concern. By the way, I haven’t yet thanked you properly for saving my life. Great kindness cannot be expressed with words. Brother Pei, if you ever need my help, feel free to ask. I will always remember your kindness."

"Yao, you are exaggerating. Between us, there is no need to be so courteous."

He looked at her deeply, his voice so tender it seemed as if it could drip with water.

Yun Wanyao lowered her head slightly, avoiding his gaze, a faint blush of shyness on her refined, otherworldly face.

If someone unaware of the situation saw them interact like this, they might suspect they were in love.

Lady Yun pursed her lips, her expression unpleasant as she watched them, her heart almost sinking to the bottom.

Yun Wanyao had consulted with Yun Wanchen, and Yun Wanchen had informed Yun Wanye and Yun Zheng, but had specifically left out Lady Yun, and Lady Yun had never shared her dreams with Yun Wanyao either.

Thus, she did not know that Yun Wanyao was already aware of what Pei Yu had done to her in the plot, only assuming that Yun Wanyao’s gratitude for being saved had deepened her feelings for Pei Yu.

How could that be?

Xiao Si’s Heart had said so much, and it was clear that Yao’er could hear Xiao Si’s Heart too. Had she not listened at all?

Lady Yun was very annoyed inside, but could only endure it.

Suddenly, a faint sound came from outside the door.

"Boo hoo, has Ah Yao woken up yet? It’s all your fault. If you had followed Ah Yao yesterday, she wouldn’t have encountered such a thing."

"Yes, yes, it’s my fault, all my fault, alright? But Princess, can you stop crying? If someone who doesn’t know listens, they might assume something really bad happened to Yun Wanyao."

[It’s the Princess and Second Brother, the Princess must be here to see my sister.]

[No, no, judging by the footsteps, it should be three people, right? Who else could it be? Perhaps the Princess’s handmaid...]

Before Yun Wanqing’s thoughts ended, a few people appeared at the door.

Leading the way were Mo Zhaozhao and Yun Wanye, followed by a man dressed in a dark purple, elegant robe.
