âBrother Ling, whatâs wrong? What happened?â Chen Qingyan looked hard at Mu Ling. âYou seem to have something to say to me.â
Mu Ling shook his head and touched Chen Qingyanâs head. âItâs nothing. I was just casually asking. It is all thanks to your care back then that I could recover so quickly.â
Chen Qingyan lowered her head shyly. âBrother Ling, you are my beloved one. I am willing to sacrifice anything for you.â
âQingyan...â Mu Ling slightly hesitated. âFeng Ruqing is someone Suyi recognizes. Her behavior is similar to Suyiâs behavior. I wanted to ask you. Have you ever blamed Suyi for treating you like this?â
Chen Qingyan clenched her fists tightly on the sheet. She loosened her grip after a short while. There was still an indifferent smile on her face.
âBrother Ling, I understand that I will also need to love your loved ones if I love you. If you like Suyi, I will like her. If you hate her, then I shall hate her. Therefore, I will not blame them for treating me like this. Besides, I was wrong. I deserved these punishments.â
Her expression was bitter, yet moving.
Mu Ling closed his eyes sadly. âQingyan, Iâm sorry...â
He would always think of sending Qingyan to another courtyard every time after he came back from meeting Suyi.
Nonetheless, Qingyan loved him as much as her own life. How could this woman survive if he left her?
How could he be so ungrateful?
âBrother Ling.â Chen Qingyan lowered her head. âIs Sister Suyi unable to tolerate me? It doesnât matter, I can leave. As long as she can forgive you and you are happy, thatâs enough. I can give up everything for you.â
âSuyi...â
âBrother Ling, the Mu family has not been very peaceful since they have come to the Mu family. It was all because of me! They may not hate you anymore if I leave. Then, the Mu family would not be in such a situation.â
She did not want to leave Mu Ling. However, she could not stay with the Mu family.
Mu Ling could not protect her from any harm!
If she continued to stay, she knew that Feng Ruqing would surely find some ways to torture her!
âNo. Qingyan, you canât go.â Mu Ling held onto Chen Qingyanâs hand tightly. âI will think of other ways for Suyi to forgive me. If you leave the Mu family, you will not be able to survive outside. I canât watch you suffer like this.â
Mu Ling did not see Chen Qingyanâs stiffened face at this moment.
If she stayed at the Mu family, she would be tortured to death!
This time, she really wanted to stay at another place to avoid the limelight for a while.
âBut Brother Ling...â
âQingyan, take a good rest. Iâll think of another way. Donât worry. I wonât let you live outside no matter what happens.â
Mu Ling let go of Chen Qingyanâs hand. He turned and disappeared from Chen Qingyanâs surprised eyes into the sun.
Chen Qingyanâs face was pale. Her hands were still hanging in the air and she could not seem to retract them.
Just as Chen Qingyan was starting to feel miserable, she saw that the door was being opened again.
She looked up cheerfully. âBrother...â
Her sentence was stopped short.
Because she saw Feng Ruqing standing at the door.
An ugly woman with scars on her face, which frightened people, was standing behind Feng Ruqing.
âWhy are you here?â Chen Qingyanâs face turned dark.
