Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Since Little Fox had gone missing, the maidservant denied that she was ever close to Little Fox. She even lost part of her memories, and she could not recall what she has shared with Little Fox.
…
Two hours later, Gu Xijiu arrived at the trail in the forest with Wind Caller.
Lan Yue and Yan Chen were there, and both of them were panicking like ants in a hot pot. They were lingering around on the trail to find clues. However, they did not manage to find any.
The two of them looked as though they had found a treasure and quickly rushed over as they saw Gu Xijiu.
Gu Xijiu had no time to question the two of them because she asked Lan Yue to bring the maidservant and the chief officer of defense along for an interrogation.
The two of them came in a very brief time. After a series of questions, the maidservant looked helpless while the chief officer looked suspicious.
There seemed to be no flaw according to their answers and both of them claimed that they did not know each other.
Gu Xijiu did not say much but released the mussel and tapped on its sh.e.l.l. “Here, read their memories!”
The maidservant quickly agreed while the chief officer refused to comply. Something must be wrong.
Now, Lan Yue and Yan Chen began to suspect him. Lan Yue decided to interrogate the man by himself. Finally, the chief officer of defense told the truth.
He said that both he and the maidservant had a special relationship since a month ago. The maidservant would visit him every three to five days, and they would chit-chat while playing chess.
He liked the maidservant. Hence, he secretly opened the main gate of the Blue Fox family for the maidservant and another girl the night before yesterday.
The chief officer continuously nodded as he finished and claimed that he did not know the girl who left with the maidservant was the future empress of the Blue Fox family. Otherwise, he would never have let them out.
Lan Yue’s face turned green and he immediately glared at the maidservant. She shouted and claimed that she was innocent. She even said that she did not know the chief officer and she never sneaked out to date the chief officer. The chief officer had wronged her.
The maidservant and the chief officer seemed to fall into a fight soon. Guj Xijiu waved to hint at them to be silent and then ordered the mussel to read their minds.
From the mussel’s a.n.a.lysis, the maidservant really did not date the chief officer, while the chief officer indeed had a special relationship with the maidservant according to their respective memories.
Lan Yue was confused as he glimpsed at Gu Xijiu and then took a glance at the mussel. “Has your mussel malfunctioned? Can it really read minds?”
The mussel was p.i.s.sed off. “You are the one who has malfunctioned! You’re useless! I’ve never made a mistake in this era!”
Gu Xijiu lightly took a breath and asked Lan Yue to retain them. After they left with the guard, Gu Xijiu continued, “If I am not mistaken, the maidservant was possessed at night and then went out to seduce the chief officer…”
Instantly, Lan Yue and Yan Chen were shocked.
Lan Yue quickly asked, “How is it possible? Who could do this?”
“Wu Wuyan.” Gu Xijiu answered succinctly.
Yan Chen’s expression immediately changed. “You mean the lady who camouflaged you?”
Gu Xijiu slightly nodded. “If there is no mistake in my rational, she’s the one who kidnapped Little Fox!”
Yan Chen was speechless while his face turned pale.
Back then, Wu Wuyan worked under Mo Zhao, and she once possessed Gu Xijiu’s original body to seek an opportunity to kill Di Fuyi. However, their plan was unravled and in the end, Di Fuyi ruined their plan.
Yan Chen knew most of the details of the incident. Hence, his heart immediately sank as he heard that she was the one who kidnapped Little Fox.
