The Ghost King's Wife is Sassy and Beautiful

60 Could He Really Have Fallen in Love With This Woman?

“So, Prime Minister Yun of the East Continent dug out the heaven-level spiritual root from one of his daughters and planted it on another daughter? How can a parent do such a wicked thing?”

“That’s not right. I heard that the second daughter of the Yun family is a fool! But this girl doesn’t look like a fool at all!”

“Speaking of which, do you think this Eldest Miss looks like Second Miss? Didn’t they say that the two daughters of the Prime Minister’s Mansion are twins? Eldest Miss is the number one beauty in the Imperial City, but why do I feel that this Second Miss is even more beautiful?”

“You don’t say. They don’t look alike at all.”

…

Hence, some people started to make connections and made guesses.

“Could it be that this Second Miss of the Yun family is not biological? Otherwise, if both of them are biological daughters, there’s no reason to dig out one’s spiritual root for the other!”

“Although the second daughter of the Yun family is a legitimate daughter, it’s said that when she was in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, she was treated even worse than a maidservant. In the past, she often rummaged through pig food buckets on the streets and was beaten up until she was covered in injuries. How could she be treated like this by her biological parents?”

The surrounding discussion was very noisy, but Mo Beiyuan still heard their conversation.

He turned to Yun Ran and Yun Qingqing and realized that the two of them did not look alike.

Yun Ran’s facial features were very outstanding and exquisite. Her skin was sparkling like jade, and she had bright white teeth. Her temperament was otherworldly. Hers was the kind of existence that would stun anyone who saw her.

However, Yun Qingqing’s facial features were ordinary. Her lips were thick, her nose was flat, and her face was thick and pink. Coupled with her plain brocade dress, if one had to pick something she was stronger at, it was probably only her hair that was slightly longer than Yun Ran’s!

If the two of them were not twins, it made sense why the Prime Minister’s Mansion treated Yun Ran and the two children the way he did.

He would get someone to investigate this matter when he returned.

This was Yun Qingqing’s first time being compared with Yun Ran, and coming up inferior.

These people’s words were like sharp blades stabbing into Yun Qingqing’s body, making her feel uncomfortable.

“How dare you tarnish the reputation of the East Continent’s Prime Minister? I’ll avenge my father today!”

With that, spiritual power gathered in her palm and she waved it at Yun Ran.

Mo Beiyuan carried Little Sweetcake in one hand and gathered spiritual power in the other. He gently raised his hand and blocked Yun Qingqing’s spiritual power attack on Yun Ran. His powerful spiritual power cultivation flipped her over and she fell to the ground with a thud.

Yun Ran did not expect Yun Qingqing to fly into a rage out of humiliation and attack her, but she did not panic. Without a spiritual root, she could not sense the fluctuation of spiritual energy. She planned to avoid her attack by observing Yun Qingqing’s movements.

However, a black shadow suddenly blocked her way.

Yun Qingqing was sent flying before she could get close to her.

In the apocalypse, Yun Ran was always the one at the front because her superpower was the strongest and she had the immortal mountain’s spiritual spring to protect her. Even if she was injured, it did not matter. She could recover after soaking in the spiritual spring.

Therefore, this was the first time someone had stood in front of her and truly protected her.

Perhaps it was because of the Gu poison between the two of them, but Yun Ran felt her heart suddenly beat irregularly.

“Imperial Uncle! What do you mean by that?”

Mo Jinyu was surprised to see Mo Beiyuan attack.

In his impression, Mo Beiyuan had always been indifferent and heartless, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with him.

Even when the women who were engaged to him died tragically, he never avenged anyone.

But now, he had attacked for the sake of this woman.

Could it be that he had really fallen in love with this woman?
