Chapter 969: Chapter 972: How Did You Spot the Flaw?
Facing that person’s cold and sinister gaze, she frustratingly realized that she had still fallen into his hands.
Indeed, he was Cang Mo.
Dressed as a soldier, with dark skin and some makeup, even with a careful look, one wouldn’t recognize him.
The reason Su Yan guessed his identity was due to some prior observations.
After all, an ordinary guard who could command these people surely had a significant background.
And the only person she could think of was him...
Seeing that Su Yan showed no surprise, Cang Mo knew that she had already guessed it was him.
This woman was somewhat clever, after all, realizing they weren’t Chu Yuxiao’s men and identifying his identity.
Daring enough to attempt escape, truly worthy of being the woman he noticed.
If the situation wasn’t so urgent, he would surely take her away and keep her by his side forever.
But, being faced with a ruined country, even with some fondness for her, he had to steel his heart.
The galloping horse gradually came to a stop, and Su Yan couldn’t resist because his hand gripped hers, pressing down on her pulse point precisely.
If he used even a bit more force, she would surely die.
It’s just a pity; after running away for so long, she was ultimately caught by him.
After capturing Su Yan, they also stopped. Sitting on horseback, Cang Mo lifted her chin with his hand and asked with a mocking smile, "How did you see through the flaw?"
Su Yan blinked, only then understanding what he meant.
Using her other hand to brush away his, she glanced at him indifferently and said disdainfully, "Because Chu Yuxiao’s men wouldn’t disregard my safety."
Moreover, she was currently with child.
Cang Mo thought for a moment and knew where he slipped up.
In his haste during the journey, he hadn’t paid attention to her condition...
With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his smile became colder, "Emperor Chu seems quite concerned about you..."
Pausing for a moment, as Su Yan had a bad premonition, he indeed said, "In that case, capturing you to threaten him should be the right move."
Then, his tone shifted, becoming sinister and violent.
"Hmph, I was actually fooled by him before!"
He was referring to the previous time when he tried to threaten Chu Yuxiao using Su Yan, and Chu Yuxiao’s reaction and words back then.
Su Yan also understood that this time, Chu Yuxiao probably wouldn’t be able to maintain his composure and act in front of him anymore.
