He was poisoned when he was still inside his motherâs belly. That was the reason why his body was weak since he was young.
Although he did not die from the poison, the poison was slowly and gradually damaging his body. Hence, he did not know how long more he had to live.
Grandmaster Qian Kun had the same opinion too.
If he was doing fine, he would be just like any healthy person. He would only appear weak.
If his bodyâs health deteriorated, he would be dead any second even if he was fine before.
That was also the reason why he did not get married.
He was afraid that he would ruin an innocent girlâs happiness.
âYoung lady.â Mu Qingyin did not want to dwell on the past. He laughed. âIâve never met you before. But, I trust my sister-in-law. Masterâs birthday is around the corner. If you want to come, we will welcome you with open arms. If youâre unwilling to meet somebody, itâs fine if you donât want to come and join us.â
Feng Ruqing recovered her senses. She smiled softly. âDonât worry. I wonât be going.â
Mu Qingyin was shocked.
âThis young lady is indeed honest. I admire that.â
Even Mu Qingyin had started to like her.
Surely, that feeling was just what any elder would feel toward younger people. It was just admiration and there were no mixed feelings.
Mu Qingyin did not say anything more. He smiled a little and turned to leave.
âMasterâs birthday is coming soon. I wonder if my sister-in-law and Nan Xian will return to the Mu family.
âSince that young lady came to Tian Shen Manor, they might come back soo.â

Tan Shuangshuang was upset. She never thought that Feng Ruqing would appear in Tian Shen Manor and reveal about her past.
She would surely be punished if Mu Ling heard about that even if she was pregnant.
Suddenly, a person appeared in front of her and blocked her path.
Tan Shuangshuang stopped walking. She raised her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her.
She was a beauty indeed but she appeared sickly.
Her beauty was not oppressive but it was rather a captivating sight.
Unknowingly, Tan Shuangshuang saw her past self in this woman in front of her.
âLady Shuang.â Qin Feiâer smiled. âI saw what happened just now.â
Tan Shuangshuangâs facial expression changed all of a sudden. âDid she come to intentionally humiliate me?â
âLady Shuang, do you know Young Lady Feng?â Qin Feiâer smiled softly. Her voice was gentle and soft.
Tan Shuangshuangâs face darkened. âWhat do you want, Lady Qin?â
âOh, I want to know more about her.â Qin Feiâer lowered her eyes. âMy younger brother seems to adore her. Iâm his elder sister. I need to take good care of him.â
Tan Shuangshuang was shocked.
âIt seems that her younger brother is called Qin Chen.
âFeng Ruqing had brought back a young man before. He was called Qin Chen too.
âAre they the same person?
âOtherwise, what else could explain Feng Ruqingâs presence here in Tian Shen Manor?â
âAre you talking about Feng Ruqing?â Tan Shuangshuang lowered her eyes. She smiled. âSheâs the princess of Liu Yun Kingdom.â
âLiu Yun Kingdom?â
Qin Feiâer frowned. A small kingdom of the secular world?
âItâs rumored that Chenâer was brought back from a small kingdom by Father. He even has a twin elder sister.â
Qin Feiâer remembered how close Qin Chen and Feng Ruqing were. She was shocked. Then, she shook her head and laughed.
