Chapter 916: Chapter 916 - I Agree to this Marriage VIII

Mu Ling’s throat was hoarse. He seemed guilty and sorry. “Qingyan, you’ve done a lot for us.”

Chen Qingyan shook her head and smiled slightly. “It’s not a big deal. I’m willing to do anything for the old master’s sake.”

Mu Ling would definitely pull Chen Qingyan into his embrace. But Suyi was there and he suppressed his urges several times.

Suyi was willing to return to the Mu family. He could not show off his intimate feelings for Qingyan in front of her. If not, she Suyi might leave angrily and never come back.

“Sister.” Qingyan smiled calmly. “You’re close to the old master. You must’ve prepared something precious for him.”

Suyi smiled slightly. “That’s for sure. Although the Heart of the Southern Ocean is precious, it’s useless for the old master.”

In fact, the Heart of the Southern Ocean could cure various illnesses but it could not cure the old master’s illness.

It was because...

She had tried that before.

Chen Qingyan almost could not maintain her smile. “What you have said is indeed true. But, I have to try even though there’s only a little hope left, right?”

The old master pushed Chen Qingyan aside and she nearly fell down.

Mu Ling quickly rushed to help Chen Qinyyan. He kept her in his embrace. Then, he stared at the old master angrily. “Father!”

The old master did not even look at Mu Ling. He protected Suyi and shielded her behind her just like how a father would do.

“That woman is too bad! She must’ve planned something against you. Ask her to stay away from Suyi. Don’t let her get near Suyi!”

Chen Qingyan paled. Her eyes were filled with tears. She still could not understand the reason she was being treated so cruelly by the old master given that she had treated him nicely.

“Mother!”

Mu Xi and Mu Huan were anxious. They rushed to Chen Qingyan and stared at Suyi angrily.

“Nan Su...”

Mu Huan gritted her teeth and she wanted to say something. But, Mu Ling straightened his body and his face darkened. “That’s enough!”

All of a sudden, the entire banquet hall fell into a deafening silence.

“Father, Suyi is always my wife. You don’t have to doubt that. But, could you please show some of your love and kindness to Qingyan? What has she done wrong? Why do you treat her like that in the banquet hall without caring for the fact that it might humiliate us?”

“Keep your mouth shut!” Suyi soon became cold and distant. “I don’t want to argue with you because today is the old master’s birthday. But, there’s one thing you need to know. I’m not your wife! I have abandoned you when you chose to let go of our love before!”

“Suyi!” Mu Ling felt great pain. “Are you serious this time? I have known Qingyan for many years now. Why are you forcing me to leave her?”

“When have I ever joked about it? If you told me that you have been intimate with Chen Qingyan, I would never have married you! You always claimed that she’s your cousin. I didn’t dwell on that. But, it appears that I was too stupid!” Suyi laughed coldly. “Mu Ling, you have known her before me. I’ll let her have you. From now on, we’re no longer husband and wife!”

Feng Ruqing held Suyi’s hand gently. “Remember, you’re the one who has divorced him and not the other way around. We’ll send him the divorce papers later. Then, you’ll no longer be related to each other.”

“Shut your mouth!”

Mu Ling was outraged. Feng Ruqing must have persuaded Suyi to do what she was doing. It must be Feng Ruqing’s fault!
