Seeing Mo Yan's sincere attitude, it was clear that she truly realized her mistake, and Mo Qingze's expression softened slightly, though his voice was still very stern, "Knowing it was wrong yet you persisted, making a mistake on top of another mistake! If you knew it was wrong, why did you still do it?"
Mo Yan bowed her head, her face filled with helplessness. The real reason she couldn't speak of at this moment—should she tell another lie to explain?
After thinking it over, she dared not concoct too wild a story and quietly explained, "'The Buddha says saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda.' Although that person is the distinguished Crown Prince, a slight misstep could bring trouble to his home, but after all, it is still a life. If the daughter has life-saving medicine in hand, and if I didn't know about it, that would be fine, but knowing it and not offering it, I would never have peace of heart!"
