Chapter 1121  : Ultimatum!

Truthfully, no matter how much the Manor Lord, Miao Jing Yun, or the elders and even Miao Xiao Miao’s father Miao Huan Yu doted on Miao Xiao Miao, no matter how unwilling they were, they would still not insist too much on this matter and even use all their abilities to fight for this opportunity!

If the Miao Family was able to have a close relationship with the peak power that controlled the Xuan Xuan Continent, it would undoubtedly strengthen the Miao Family’s authority in the Misty Illusory Manor. This was a good matter that they could have only wished for previously!

That was the cruelty of reality and also greatest tragedy of the large aristocratic families!

This was also the greatest benefit of having strength!

“I’ve spoken frankly enough, and I hope that you can understand as well. If Mo Xie truly wants to take you by force, you would not have any choice! Even if you are more stubborn and immediately take your life after being married here, your tombstone will still be marked as the wife of Jun Mo Xie! Not the daughter of the Miao Family! Mo Xie would not even need to make the request personally, and the Miao Family will naturally make the first move themselves!”

Mei Xue Yan continued coldly. “For a person who he can obtain with just the curling of a finger, would he need to go out of his way to deceive you? Is there any meaning in doing that? He’s not such a bored person with nothing to do!”

Miao Xiao Miao could hear the harshness in Mei Xue Yan’s tone, and her heart began to beat heavily with shock. For a long time, she was unable to say anything.

“Back then, when you tried repeatedly to get close to him, hadn’t he rejected you many times? It was your insistence, pushing yourself to the boundaries of losing your life that Mo Xie softened his heart and accepted you. Along with his desire to save you—that was just a sense of helplessness! If not for that, I refuse to believe that Mo Xie would be willing to accept another girl into his heart so easily! No matter who that girl is, it’s impossible!”

Mei Xue Yan looked at her and continued. “His initial intentions in entering the Misty Illusory Manor was only for us, and we do not blame him as well. In fact, all of us chose to be understanding, to the point of being willing to accept you.”

“However, you are just making things difficult for yourself. Mo Jun Ye and Jun Mo Xie are simply the same person! Or rather, from the start to end, there was only Mo Xie. But you insisted on separating them, turning the Mo Jun Ye identity into a seperate living person! At the root of everything, it was just you who could not accept this ‘scam’. But it doesn’t mean that Mo Jun Ye is not Jun Mo Xie.

“It’s because you feel that you had been cheated that you began to doubt the truth of the love you had felt in the Misty Illusory Manor. You thought that you had sacrificed many things, and your love should be reciprocated in certain ways. But you felt like you had not gotten that reciprocation, so you feel unbalanced in your heart.” Mei Xue Yan said sternly. “At the end of the day, this is actually a very simple matter.”

“He didn’t lie to me... what do you mean?” Miao Xiao Miao widened her eyes and asked.

“With your intelligence, are you really still confused about this? The reason he could not be honest with you was because his identity was his greatest secret while in the Misty Illusory Manor! How could he reveal that to you? Should he say to you from the start: Miao Xiao Miao, you must not like me because I’m not Mo Jun Ye. Mo Jun Ye is just an illusion that doesn’t exist. I’m Jun Mo Xie, and I’m here only for the Seven Colored Holy Fruits, not for you...?”

Mei Xue Yan smiled and shook her head. “He didn’t go to the Misty Illusory Manor to lie to you.”

She looked deeply at Miao Xiao Miao. “In clearer words, he had not gone to the Misty Illusory Manor for you at all. It was not to obtain your body or your love! Even throughout all the process of your interaction, he had always adopted a reactive state and had never taken the initiative!

“He never had any intentions to woo you and had never even made taken any initiatives towards you. Did he not tell you that he had a wife whom he loved deeply at home? Or did he not say that the only person he truly cared about was his wife at home? He should have mentioned that to you for sure. Taking all these things into consideration, how could he be said to have ‘deceived’ you!

“Whether you’ve given your body to Mo Jun Ye or to Jun Mo Xie, it is your decision. Because... you had done it willingly, without being forced by anyone. And to Mo Xie, the relationship had been forced onto him!

“So, the one who should really feel unfair is not you—it’s Mo Xie! The people who should feel the most unhappy are actually us girls at home, not you! Could a smart girl like you really not understand this?”

Mei Xue Yan said in a slightly icy manner. “The reason Mo Xie chose to tell you the truth now, was because he wanted to take responsibility for you! As a man, no matter what his original intentions are, the result was that you are already his woman, and he wants to take responsibility for his woman! He didn’t want to live with the guilt of seeing you wasting away in the Misty Illusionary Manor!

“Ask yourself, which other man in the world can do this much? Little sister Xiao Miao, you should not hold onto that meaningless stubbornness. A woman can be stubborn, but she must not be stubborn to the point where the man she loves and the man who loves her ends up feeling tired of her! At that time, only a tragedy is fated to happen! Mo Xie is a person who is able to meet gains or losses with equanimity. But once he gives something up, it’s a virtually impossible matter to ask him to pick it up again.

“Right now, you should consider carefully and take care of your body well. If you’ve thought it through, I will help you with the other sisters. We can still be good sisters and live together. But if you still insist, there’s no need to go through Jun Mo Xie. You just need to tell me, and I will find someone to send you back to the Misty Illusory Manor! You will still be the jewel of the Miao Family, and no one will know about today’s matter. No one will pursue the matter, and how will choose will be completely up to you!”

Mei Xue Yan did not say anymore and directly stood up. Leaving a ‘rest well’ behind her, she turned to leave.

Towards a girl like Miao Xiao Miao with such a stubborn temper, Mei Xue Yan knew that a gentle method of advising would only worsen the matter, causing her to stray further and further. It was better to directly wake her up from her fanciful thoughts with a fierce slap. Bringing everything that should be said and should not be said, right to her face.

Thus, Mei Xue Yan had not hesitated to exaggerate some matters, using a method of sheltering Jun Mo Xie completely to deal with her.

Mei Xue Yan was also a decisive person, ending the matter like that.

If Miao Xiao Miao was truly unable to accept the thought and insisted on her views, then, no matter how unwilling Jun Mo Xie was or how sad Jun Mo Xie would be, even if he became angry at her, Mei Xue Yan would still send Miao Xiao Miao away! She would not leave her here to prolong Jun Mo Xie’s pain!

Jun Mo Xie was a decisive person, but Mei Xue Yan was similarly a person who was true to her words.

To Mei Xue Yan, Guan Qing Han, and the rest, Jun Mo Xie was like a baby that they all wanted to protect. They already could not wait to coddle him and shower him with love! They would never allow anyone to hurt him.

So, whether Miao Xiao Miao stayed or left, was all up to Mei Xue Yan right now.

“Elder sister Xue Yan...” Miao Xiao Miao suddenly struggled to sit up. Her voice was weak, and it carried a pleading tone.

“Rest well and think things through carefully. Once you’ve thought it through properly, send a person to inform me.” Mei Xue Yan did not turn around. “Our Jun Family does not need disobedient daughter-in-laws or a woman who has resentment towards her own man. No matter how amazing her background is, no one is an exception! Even if Mo Xie is the Evil Monarch, even if he’s more powerful than the Nine Nether First Young Master, the harem is still under me, Mei Xue Yan! Don’t worry, I have complete authority on whether you stay or go! You have nothing to fear! I’ll still say the same words; however you choose is completely up to you!”

Mei Xue Yan’s words were practically an ultimatum to Miao Xiao Miao!

After saying that, Mei Xue Yan left. The moment she reached the door, she stopped again. Still without turning her head, she said, “Oh, by the way, this is Mo Xie’s bedroom, and the bed you are lying on is his. If you have any requirements, I can arrange for the bedding to be changed for you.”

After that, her body turned into a white shadow and disappeared through the door.

Miao Xiao Miao sank back heavily onto the pillow, her heart in disarray.

Two drops of crystalline tears rolled out of her eyes, dripping onto the already wet pillow. “Jun Ye... what should I do?”

“Jun Ye...” All of a sudden, Miao Xiao Miao realized another thing.

Mo Jun Ye, Jun Mo Xie...

Although these two names seemed different at a glance, but the pronunciation...

Isn’t it just the same three words in different order?

Perhaps Jun Mo Xie had already given a hint to the Misty Illusory Manor back from the moment he first entered the Misty Illusory Manor...

It was just that the hint was a little more subtle!

“No wonder...” Miao Xiao Miao smiled and opened her listless eyes with great effort. All of a sudden, another sentence appeared in her heart. On the eve that Mo Jun Ye left the Misty Illusory Manor, he had asked her this question: Miao Miao, If I leave Misty Illusory Manor, never to return... Would you be willing to live in the outside world with me?

At that time, she had answered: I am yours... No matter where you are, I will follow, be it the ends of the world, in heaven or hell, wherever you go, I’ll follow...

She hadn’t thought much of it at the time, only thinking that he was acting a little odd. But now that she thought of it, those words were clearly to test her attitude.

What should I do?

Just what should I do?

Outside the door, Guan Qing Han was talking with Mei Xue Yan.

“Elder sister Xue Yan, is this a little too direct? What if that lass can’t think it through and instead became even more stubborn? At that time, nobody will be able to get off the stage!” Guan Qing Han asked with concern.

Guan Qing Han had come together with Mei Xue Yan, and it was just that she stopped outside the door and didn’t come in. All the conversation between Mei Xue Yan and Miao Xiao Miao had been heard by her. And even she felt that Mei Xue Yan’s words had been slightly too heavy.

“She won’t! Miao Xiao Miao is also an extremely decisive girl. From the way she does things, it’s quite apparent. In addition, her upbringing and inner qualities are not necessarily inferior to us. Right now, she just hasn’t come around to accepting the truth yet. But I believe that she will definitely be able to think things through. But in any case, even if she can’t do it, I will not forcefully keep her for Mo Xie. Even if Mo Xie objects, it will be the same!”
