Chapter 304 Confrontation
Shen Jiaojiao's raised foot froze in mid-air, not daring to step forward.

When did the adopted brother come?
Didn't Ke Xin and Ke Ying notice it? Even if they didn't see their brother come in, Yu Mei is a skilled martial artist, so she should have noticed that there was an extra person in the room. Why didn't she tell her in advance?

The evidence on the table...

She also said she would find an excuse to give to her brother.

There is no need to think of excuses now, because people have seen it and are waiting inside the house to hold you accountable.

"Shen Jiaojiao, come in."

Hearing this steady voice, Shen Jiaojiao's heart trembled. It was too late to retreat, so she could only bite the bullet and walk in.

When she opened the curtain and walked into the inner room, she saw the man lying on the small couch at a glance.

The man lay on his side, one hand on the small couch, propping up his face, his black hair scattered softly, his moon-white robe loose, revealing a large area of ​​pectoral muscles, and his strong abdominal muscles could be vaguely seen downwards.

"Ah!" She screamed and quickly turned her back, not daring to look again.

The blush gradually climbed up from the neck, dyeing the cheeks and ears red.

"What are you doing?!"

Meng Hui raised his lips and smiled, his deep voice carrying a certain bewitching power, "Seduce you."

seduce?

Her breath was choked and her whole face turned purple.

Aunt Ning is in the west wing opposite, how can she seduce me? How can this person be so shameless!
"Hurry up and put on your clothes! Otherwise... otherwise I will go and ask my aunt to come over and have her scold you back!"

Meng Hun was not threatened at all. Instead, he said excitedly, "That's perfect. My aunt doesn't know about our relationship yet. Now is a good time to confess to her."

"...Meng Hun!" Shen Jiaojiao gritted her teeth.

Seeing that she was really angry, Meng Hun didn't dare to tease her anymore. He sat up and tightened his belt.

"Okay, turn around."

The man placed his hands on the small desk, tapping the table slowly and forcefully with his fingertips, making a tapping sound.

"It's a good opportunity to explain to me what this evidence is all about."

Shen Jiaojiao turned around, her face no longer showing the previous panic.

But she still couldn't find any excuse to explain the origin of the 'evidence' and was speechless.

Meng Hun seemed to sense her panic. He paused tapping on the table and reached out his hand to her.

"come to me."

She took a deep breath and moved forward step by step.

When she reached the man, she opened her mouth and called out "brother" in a low voice.

Meng Hun reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding her in his arms while asking, "Is Mo Wei here today?"

"Hmm." She nodded.

"Did she give this to you?"

She wanted to say no, but thinking that no one came to see her today, she couldn't explain the source of the evidence at all, so she could only nod stiffly.

Meng Hun's brows moved slightly. He turned her body over and sat face to face with her.

"Murong Zi is in contact with you?"

Shen Jiaojiao nodded again, biting her lower lip tightly with her teeth, and refused to speak.

A hint of displeasure flashed across the man's eyes, and even his breath became heavier. "Why did you contact him privately?"

"Murong Zi insisted on getting close to me. He has been contacting my people privately, saying that he wants to exchange what he has with me."

She didn't dare to lie. Murong Zi had contact with Yumei before, and her brother-in-law should know about it.

Thinking of this, she mustered up the courage to ask back: "Don't you know? Yumei should have told you, right?"

Meng Hun stared at her, "Yumei never told me about your situation."

As he said that, he reached out and pinched her cheek.

"I said, since I gave Yumei to you, she is yours, you don't have to be so wary of her." Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head, eyelids drooping slightly, and explained: "I'm not wary, it's just..."

Meng Hui pinched her cheek again, "Okay, you don't have to explain, I understand your concerns."

She looked up at her brother in surprise, her lips moved slightly, but she finally swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Meng Hun noticed her concealment and did not blame her too much. Instead, he felt that it was because he did not give Shen Jiaojiao enough sense of security that made her so suspicious.

He thought for a moment and decided to take the initiative to tell Shen Jiaojiao about Murong Zi so that she could let down her guard against him.

“Since you have been in contact with Murong Zi before and he has saved your life, I will tell you straight.

"When Murong Zi came to my house to make trouble, I sent people to investigate him, and even Yichunyuan. First of all, there is Yichunyuan, which is opened in important towns in the Great Zhou Kingdom. It doesn't seem like a place for romance, but more like... an intelligence gathering center.

“I suspect the person behind this is from the royal family. I originally suspected the princes who were fighting each other, but the other party hid himself very deeply and there was no trace of him at all.

“I turned to investigate Murong Zi and found that he really came out of nowhere. After he took over Yichunyuan in Lin’an City, the scope of his underground influence further expanded.

"It was not until Prince Qing came to Lin'an that I discovered that Murong Zi had had secret contact with Prince Qing. Only then did I know for sure that Murong Zi was Prince Qing's man."

Shen Jiaojiao was fascinated by what she heard. Although Mo Wei had told her the news, it was not in such detail.

"anything else?"

She pretended that she had never heard the news and urged her brother to continue.

"I didn't want to tell you this at first, because I believed Murong Zi really wanted to repay you, but who knew that this guy was actually loyal to King Qing and was ordered to sneak into the Meng Mansion and kidnap you."

Having said that, Meng Hun frowned, murderous intent evident in his eyes.

Shen Jiaojiao was frightened by the look in her brother's eyes, and knew that her brother wanted to kill Murong Zi.

But... no matter what, Murong Zi saved my life!

What's more, Murong Zi took the risk of kidnapping her with the original intention of taking her far away, away from the quagmire of the Meng Mansion.

It was just that she had someone in her heart and was worried about everything here, so she chose not to leave.

She was afraid that her sworn brother would harm Murong Zi's life, so she hurried to explain.

"Brother! You must not hurt Murong Zi. He was poisoned by King Qing, and he had no choice but to take me away. Besides... didn't he come back to save me later? Don't blame him, he was forced to do so..."

Before she could finish her words, she keenly sensed that something was wrong, her face changed drastically, and she looked at the man in front of her in horror.

"Did you find the person? What did you do to him?!"

Seeing that she looked frightened, Meng Hun immediately held her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

"Am I such a person?"

A sigh came from above.

Shen Jiaojiao twisted her shoulders and struggled hard, "Let me go, talk to me nicely, tell me first..."

She was afraid that Meng Hun would take the opportunity to fool her again.

Meng Hun sighed and said helplessly: "Let's put it this way. Even if Murong Zi wasn't there, Prince Qing wouldn't let you go. If he sends someone else to deal with you, I'd rather it be Murong Zi."

As he spoke, the man bent down and kissed her forehead.

"He saved your life and allowed you to return to me safely. I should be grateful to him."

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao stopped struggling and finally felt relieved.

She uttered a low 'hmm' and lay motionless on the man's chest.

Seeing that she had finally behaved herself, Meng Hun continued her story.

"The people I sent out to search for her were indeed unable to find Murong Zi. Two days and two nights have passed, so the hope of finding her is slim.

"However, my people found traces of him leaving. Although they lost the traces quickly, we believe he should still be alive."

While saying these words, Meng Hun held Shen Jiaojiao tightly in his arms, not daring to let her see his expression at the moment.

If she saw it, she would definitely be suspicious.

Meng Hun didn't dare tell her that next to the trace, there were many footprints of large wild animals, and some pieces of clothing covered in blood.

He suspected that Murong Zi had encountered a ferocious beast in the snow and was in great danger.
