Chapter 143 The Real Li Mo'er
Li Mo'er grew impatient and ordered Lühe to go and check on the Fifth Prince.
Green Lotus whispered, "The Fifth Prince has something to attend to today and cannot come."
Li Mo'er's expression immediately changed. If the Fifth Prince wasn't coming, what was she pretending for?
She glared fiercely at Lühe, pinching Lühe's arm repeatedly, and said through gritted teeth.
"The Fifth Prince didn't come, yet he dared not tell me? Is he tired of living?"
Green Lotus stood there, feeling wronged and not daring to move. She could only silently bite her lower lip to keep herself from making a sound.
Looking at the unfamiliar Li Mo'er in front of her, she secretly rejoiced that she hadn't let the Fifth Prince come.
Li Mo'er got tired of pinching, so she asked Lühe to prepare dinner. She had originally wanted to have dinner with the Fifth Prince to cultivate their relationship.
At dinner, Li Mo'er looked at the table full of delicacies and began to wolf them down. These were the best dishes in the palace that she had asked Lühe to prepare.
Thinking that she had come all day without even seeing the Fifth Prince, she realized that she couldn't have come all day without even getting a glimpse of him.
So she instructed Green Lotus to fetch some pastries and take her to the Fifth Prince.
Green Lotus hesitated for a moment, but seeing Li Mo'er's threatening look, she gave in.
Although Li Mo'er had seen the palace inside her body before, this was the first time she had experienced its magnificence with her own body.
She couldn't help but make up her mind that she must marry the Fifth Prince, and as for the others in her family, she would just divorce them.
She followed Green Lotus in a good mood. When they arrived at the Fifth Prince's study, Green Lotus was about to knock on the door when Li Mo'er stopped her.
She wanted to go in herself to show her sincerity.
Green Lotus had intended to go in and quietly inform the Fifth Prince, but Li Mo'er blocked her from entering.
Li Mo'er straightened her clothes, cleared her throat, and smiled before knocking on the door.
"咚咚-"
Upon hearing the Fifth Prince's invitation to enter, Li Mo'er pushed open the door with a smile.
The Fifth Prince looked up and saw Li Mo'er. He was somewhat surprised and quickly put down his pen.
"You're not feeling well today, so why did you come here?"
Li Mo'er imitated Qian Duoduo's expression, "The Fifth Prince didn't come to my place today, so I came to check on him."
The Fifth Prince did not notice Li Mo'er's unusual behavior. He simply nodded, his eyes filled with surprise. He had not expected her to come to him in person.
You should know that these past few days, he's been trying to find her, but she's refused to see him.
"I brought you some pastries, please try them."
Li Mo'er's voice was gentle on the surface, but in her heart she had cursed Qian Duoduo countless times.
Her throat was so hoarse she couldn't speak properly.
But actually, Qian Duoduo always spoke normally, just in a gentler tone.
Li Mo'er picked up a piece of pastry from the plate and held it to the Fifth Prince's lips.
She's been so proactive; the Fifth Prince should understand her feelings by now.
The Fifth Prince was startled by Li Mo'er's actions. He turned his head slightly away and awkwardly accepted the pastries.
"I will do it myself."
He didn't know why Li Mo'er had changed so much, so he decided to be careful.
Li Mo'er lowered her eyes to hide the surging emotions within them, which the Fifth Prince interpreted as a sign of weakness.
The Fifth Prince couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here so late?"
Li Mo'er looked up, her eyes clearing instantly, the greed that flashed across them vanished as if it had never existed.
"I've thought it through. I want to divorce my husband and marry you."
Her tone was firm, and now it was the Fifth Prince's turn to hesitate. Why was she suddenly so decisive?
He didn't eat the pastries in his hand, but just frowned slightly, deep in thought.
After a long pause, he nodded. "I'll come find you tomorrow, and we'll go see the Queen Mother together."
Joy immediately appeared in Li Mo'er's eyes. She turned and left, having achieved her goal.
The Fifth Prince watched Li Mo'er's departing figure with some doubt. Back in the Imperial Study, she had so resolutely refused to divorce him, but now she had suddenly agreed. It was hard not to be suspicious.
At night, Green Lotus glanced at the sleeping Li Mo'er and tiptoed out of bed.
She had wanted to tell the Fifth Prince the truth before she went to sleep, but Li Mo'er kept a close eye on her, so she never had a chance to go out.
Just as her hand touched the doorknob, she heard Li Mo'er's sinister voice from behind.
"Where are you going?"
Green Lotus trembled with fear, cold sweat beading on her forehead. She lowered her head and turned around shakily.
In that instant, she could already imagine how she would die.
"I……"
Before she could finish speaking, she realized there was no one in front of her. She glanced at Li Mo'er on the bed, who was still fast asleep, probably talking in her sleep.
Green Lotus patted her chest and hurriedly fled the room as if escaping; it was too suffocating for her.
Even after arriving at the Fifth Prince's courtyard, she still hadn't figured out how to start the conversation, so she just paced around in the courtyard.
They happened to run into the Fifth Prince's attendant coming out of his study. The Fifth Prince was always very busy and usually didn't get to sleep until midnight.
The servant turned around and told the Fifth Prince that Green Lotus had arrived.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in. She stood there awkwardly, stammering as she recounted the day's events, pulling up her sleeves as she spoke.
The numerous scars and marks on her body all testified to the credibility of her words.
After hearing Green Lotus's description, the Fifth Prince's eyebrows furrowed together.
It seems that the matter of seeing the Empress Dowager will have to be postponed. Tomorrow, let him see the real Li Mo'er first.
