Dongfang Mo's gaze was cold and sharp. It was obvious that he did not intend to let her off easily.
2"Now, tell me, what is your name?''
2Dongfang Mo's voice was like the snow wind that blew across the Tianshan Mountains. It was cold and piercing to the bone.
2"Xi-Mu-Ru."
2Mu Ru spat out her name, word by word. Although the corner of her mouth was bleeding, her voice carried to Dongfang Mo's ears clearly.
2"Xi Muru?"
2Dongfang Mo frowned instinctively, and then he asked,
2"What's your relationship with Xi Muxue?"
2"We are sisters, twin sisters."
2Mu Ru could not help but laugh bitterly, then she added,
2"If we were not twin sisters, I would not have been able to deceive all the guests today."
2"Hmm, this plan was very clever. Indeed, it was a trick to deceive the heavens and the sea."
2Dongfang Mo mocked, then he scolded,
2"Who asked you to do this? Who asked you to replace the true bride?"
2Mu Ru was silent, and Dongfang Mo's patience was short. He pressed the dagger at her throat forward. Mu Ru felt pain as bright red blood flowed from her neck on to the snow-white dagger.
2Who asked her to replace the bride? The pain focused her mind upon that night, a week ago, when the course of her life had changed.
2A week ago, Xi Muru had arrived straight home after school, as usual. She had been able to hear the sound of arguing inside before she had even opened the door.
2Her beautiful, fairy-like sister, was arguing with her parents again. It was nothing out of the ordinary. Anyway, what did her sister want this time? If her father did not buy whatever it was for her... She would definitely keep arguing until she got what she wanted.
3Xi Muru paused for a moment before she walked in. As she bent down to change her shoes, she heard Xi Muxue shriek,
2"You can say whatever you want. I'm not going to marry that useless man anyway."
2Xi Muxue's roar was deafening. Mu Ru instinctively covered her ears to protect her hearing.
2"What do you mean by useless man? He's the CEO of the Oriental Group. His net worth is over a hundred billion. In ancient times, he was as rich as a country. The pair of you have been engaged since you were young. Who else are you going to marry if not him?"
2Xi Yuancheng glared at his daughter as he berated her.
2"Dad, can you be a little more humane?"
2Xi Muxue's angry face quickly turned into a look of disdain, and then she said,
2"Everybody knows that Dongfang Mo's life was destroyed by the fire last year. If you make me to marry him, I will have to live as a widow for the rest of my life. I don't care how amazingly rich he is. Can you exchange money for my life?"
3"Shut up!"
2Xi Yuancheng roared and threw the half-smoked cigarette in his hand onto the ground. When he realized that he was standing on a carpet, he angrily stomped on the butt to extinguish it. Then, he looked at his youngest daughter and yelled,
2"How can a girl say such things without any shame? It's already settled. Dongfang Mo is your fiancé. It has been settled for six years. Dongfang Mo wants our family to fulfill the marriage contract we signed. He wants to marry you as we agreed. We can't break off the engagement or anything like that, so you have to marry him no matter what."
