1225: He’ll Go Crazy For Sure

He’ll Go Crazy For Sure

Jing Ruyue looked at the girl right next to her and laughed.1

"Do you think I'm stupid? My daughter is right here next to me! What are you planning?"

"No, she's not your real daughter," Huo Yunshen explained as he took out the brooch that was left for Jing Ruyue. "Your daughter is in Estan right now. If you don't believe me, then take a look at this."

Jing Ruyue looked at the brooch, and tears began to fill her eyes. It was the memoir that Feng had left her years ago.

She felt like someone was tightening her heart as breathing became harder.

"I did leave this to my daughter… What is happening here?"

What confused Jing Ruyue the most was that her daughter was indeed standing right beside her.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not Jing Xi," Alice said slowly. "I'm sorry for lying to you, but I'm just a clone of Jing Xi…"

"…" Jing Ruyue was shocked by the truth, and words could not escape her mouth.

"Please, we can't stay here any longer," Huo Yunshen begged. "If Mo Xie finds out we're here, then we'll lose our only chance to escape."

"Okay, I'll leave with you all. What should I do?"

Huo Yunshen explained their plan to Jing Ruyue. With Jing Ruyue up to speed, she changed her clothes with Qu Na, Lan Ling'er's assistant, so that they could switch roles.

After the preparations were done, Jing Ruyue stood where Qu Na had been standing, while Qu Na lay down next to Alice.

Not long after that, Lan Ling'er came back with her father. After exchanging looks with Huo Yunshen, Lan Ling'er knew that they were ready to leave.

"I should go back then, father," Lan Ling'er said. "I'll come back and see you again next time."

"Okay," Mo Xie nodded, not being bothered whether his daughter actually would come back to visit him in the future or not.

Lan Ling'er quickly guided Huo Yunshen, Helian QIngyu, and Jing Ruyue out of the castle and left the Phantom Island.

It wasn't until they were far away from the island they could finally let out sighs of relief.

"Luckily we weren't found out," Helian QIngyu sighed.

"No, we can't let our guard down yet," Lan Ling'er warned. "I'm not sure how long Qu Na can trick my father. If he finds out we took her away, he'll go crazy for sure."

…

Mo Xie did not suspect anything was off at first as he sat down beside his woman.

Qu Na thought that if she kept quiet, Mo Xie would not realize that she was not Jing Ruyue. But there was one flaw in her plan: Mo Xie would talk to Jing Ruyue from time to time.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?" Mo Xie asked.

Qu Na shook her head, not even letting any of her voice escaped.

"The wind's wild. Here, put this on."

Mo Xie put a jacket over who he thought was Jing Ruyue. But when his finger accidentally touched the woman in front of him, she jumped up in fear.

"What's wrong?" Mo Xie asked curiously.

Qu Na shook her head and acted as if she had a headache.

"Are you feeling unwell? Come, let's get you back to your room."

Mo Xie took the woman by her shoulder and guided her back to the bedroom.
