She casually sat down on the sofa. Even now, she remained perfectly composed.
Dong Zhou lowered his head. His fists tightened.
"His Majesty suspects the South Wing is planning a rebellion. And the evidence... is you."
Mu Ning remained silent for a moment. Then she smiled faintly.
"So... You called me here to ask me to take responsibility? Or perhaps explain myself?"
Dong Zhou hurriedly shook his head.
"No. What I mean is... The royal family may come after you as well."
Mu Ning raised an eyebrow. "Come after me?"
Dong Zhou nodded solemnly.
For some reason... a trace of amusement appeared in Mu Ning's eyes.
"Then... Let's see whether the royal family is truly capable of dealing with me."
Everyone froze.
They had expected Ning Mu to show at least a hint of concern after hearing such news.
Instead... he looked even more relaxed than usual.
Li Tianmei couldn't help asking,
"Ning Mu... Are you secretly a prince from some powerful civilization?"
