He wanted to comfort Princess Qingluo, but she dodged him before he could touch her.
His fingers stiffened in the air, and his gaze was filled with sorrow.
âQingluo, Iâm sorry. Itâs not that I donât believe you. I just...â
âThatâs enough!â Qingluo closed her eyes in disappointment; her body was trembling. After a few seconds, she gradually calmed down and slowly opened her eyes. âYou donât have to explain. I know whatâs in your heart. My daughter and I can never compare to your Little Nine. For so many years, it has been me who has been bugging you. If you donât like it, I am willing to take Qingya away so you can live happily with Little Nine.â
Mu Qingya walked up to Qingluoâs side sadly.
It was obvious that she was disappointed with Mu Yi.
Mu Yi felt guilty. He felt like a useless father for doubting Qingya.
âQingya would never lie...â
âQingluo, you do not have to say such things. In my heart, no one is more important than Qingya. I owe too much to Little Nine, and I want to make up to her, but what I really care about most is always Qingya.â
One was the daughter who grew up with him, the other... She left when she was a child.
The most important would always be the one who grew up around him.
Old Lady Mu had awakened and had only been resting in her room. However, she rushed out after her servant reported to her about this matter.
When she heard that Qingluo was going to take Mu Qingya away, she was so angry that her cane hit the ground hard, and there was a wave of uncontrollable anger in her voice.
âBastard! You bastard! Who permitted you to meet Little Nine again? That little b*stard still dares to hurt Qingya. DId you think that because Iâm injured, I would allow her to do whatever she wants? Mu Yi, go and drive that b*stard away immediately! Donât allow her to appear in Feng Yun Kingdom, or else I wonât even take you as my son anymore!â
Mu Yi opened his mouth and wanted to defend Little Nine, but after seeing Mu Qingya and Princess Qingluoâs faces sink, he remained silent.
He was afraid that Little Nine would have a hard time if she did not come back home. But now... Perhaps it was better to let her leave just like before, and maybe she would have a better life out there.
However, he owed his daughter a lot, and he felt guilty. Therefore, even after Little Nine had made a mistake, he was still willing to tolerate her again and let her come back.
However...
She hurt Qingya. If she had not targeted Qingya, he would have let her stay.
âLet me take care of this matter.â
Mu Yi smiled bitterly.
The anger upon Princess Qingluoâs face faded after hearing this. She pursed her lips and said, âMu Yi, had Little Nine promised to be more obedient and not bully Qingya, maybe I would still keep her and treat her nicely. But she is too wild, cruel, and vicious. If Qingya did not know how to swim, wouldnât she have drowned in that lake?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She sighed. âIf she could do this... Who knows if one day she would poison Qingya out of jealousy? We canât let that happen.â
Mu Yi did not say a word.
