Rebirth Of The Female Antagonist: - 163 Utmost Trus

Hearing Xu Fei Yi’s question, Mu Qing could not help but wonder what it was all about. Still, he opened his mouth and wholeheartedly answered.

“If it was this subordinate, this subordinate would definitely hate it. Being forced to do something that one despised, of course, one would get angry. This subordinate would even curse the person who forced me to do those despicable things.”

‘Despised… despicable… curse..?’

Xu Fei Yi’s heart jolted when he heard Mu Qing’s words. His face turned sour once again.

Did he make a mistake?

Xu Fei Yi refused to accept that he was in the wrong. For him, kissing XuanRong was a given. He wanted to take it slowly, but something snapped inside his mind and he could not help but commit such grave sin.

Still, he refused to accept that XuanRong despised his kisses and hated his touch. He could only repeatedly tell himself that XuanRong strongly rejected him because she was only startled and not because she hated him.

“…. If the person you care lied in front of you, deceiving you completely.. would you get angry? Even if that person only wanted to make you safe.”

While asking, Xu Fei Yi’s face remained stoic and even his voice was monotonous, but inside his heart, he was deeply concerned about it. He wanted to tell XuanRong everything. He did not want to hide his true self but could only choose to hide his identity in order to protect her. Although he was the Moon Emperor, he could not protect her completely. He was powerful but his illness was his weakness. He had many enemies, not only Xu Ji Mo but also those hidden forces in the shadows. He was afraid that she would be involved in his own problem.

Even though Xu Fei Yi was not able to find any lead, he knew that the death of his Imperial Mother and the secret of his illness were connected with his birth and his ability to resist poison. Before his Imperial mother died, she had imparted some of her wisdom. Thus, he knew that the reason why his Imperial Mother was targeted was because of her knowledge about poison art and medical healing. Unfortunately, his Imperial Mother died before she successfully taught him everything that she knew. His knowledge were only superficial and could not be considered at the peak.

Those people who killed his Imperial Mother was now eyeing both his identity as the foolish prince, Xu Fei Yi, and Moon Emperor, the owner of Dark Palace and Moon Pavilion. He was still in the dark and did not know who were behind it, but he had a hunch that it was related to Jing Country’s Emperor, Long Hao Tian. He had to find his missing subordinate and see if the reason of her disappearance was related to him.

Thus, even if he wanted to tell XuanRong the truth so that he could openly possess her without using any shameless act, he could not… until his illness had been cured. As long as his illness got cured, he would no longer fear the full moon and could properly protect her.

But, even if he decided to hide the truth, he was still reluctant to lie and deceive her. He did not want to see her angry face. He was afraid that she would hate him because he lied to her…. especially now that he had ‘forced’ himself unto her.

That was the reason why he wanted to know Mu Qing’s insight regarding that matter.

Waiting for Mu Qing’s reply, Xu Fei Yi could not help but slightly feel anxious.

“…. Uh… Your Highness… This subordinate does not know why Your Highness is asking this, but this subordinate will tell you frankly. If it is related to the person dearest to you, I suggest you tell that person and confess you lie immediately.”

With all his serious face, Mu Qing slowly explained. He could not help but pour all of his emotion towards Xu Fei Yi’s question since he knew the feeling of being doubted.

“Your Highness… once that person realized your betrayal, that person would not only feel hurt, but that person would also think that you do not believe in him. That person would think that your relationship was shallow since you did not trust him.”

After hearing Mu Qing’s advice, Xu Fei Yi fell silent.

“Mmm… What you said is right.”

Mu Qing stared and observed Xu Fei Yi’s facial expression but when he could not find any cracks in his indifferent face, Mu Qing could only give up. Ever since he found out that Xu Fei Yi was normal and not a fool, he no longer saw Xu Fei Yi smile at him. Although he knew that it was necessary to hide the truth from everyone and he, as the appointed imperial guard, was not an exemption, still, Mu Qing could not help but feel disheartened.

When Mu Qing left, Xu Fei Yi was in deep thought.

“Your Lordship.”

Suddenly, Yue Shin appeared in front of him.
