Luo Bing threw down the bomb and left. Song Nan had never suffered such grievances since she was young. She immediately started to make a fuss.
Duan Si was about to go crazy. She called Mu Guo and Mu En and asked them to come back immediately.
Mu Guo replied as usual: [Iâm not free. Iâm in a meeting.]
Mu En came back dejectedly. He didnât expect Song Nan to really succeed. He was really envious of her, but he couldnât do anything when his mother asked him to find a way to get his brother back and marry Song Nan.
He was sure that Song Nan would have a way, so he wasnât in a hurry and just cheered for her alongside his mother.
At this moment, Mu Guo was handing a set of emerald jewelry to Lin Jun.
Lin Jun took it from him with a smile and glanced at him. âWhatâs the occasion? Youâre giving me a gift for nothing?â
Mu Guo smiled and said, âSince I met you, 1 wanted to give it to you. Why do 1 need an occasion to give you a gift? Iâm just in the mood.â
Lin Jun was displeased. âThen how long has it been since you were in the mood?â
Mu Guo was a little embarrassed.
Lin Jun knew when to stop and changed the topic. âMu En caused trouble again today.â
Mu Guo frowned.
Lin Jun sighed softly. âMadam asked Lin Xu to call me and tell me that Second Young Master is trapped in his room. There are already reporters surrounding him, and they found him themselves.â
Mu Guo frowned even more. âWhatâs wrong?â
Lin Jun shrugged. â1 heard that it was to capture him and Miss Shen Su in bed together. In the end, there was a misunderstanding. We lured the reporters away and got Second Young Master out. We realized that the girl in the room was Bei Le, Eldest Young Madamâs younger sister.â
âWhat kind of nonsense is this?â Mu Guo asked in a low voice.
âAfter sending him back to Madam, itâs not easy for me to ask how they are going to deal with him in the future. There are also people Iâm familiar with among the reporters. 1 only know after asking. Second Young Master and Miss Bei Le have been secretly colluding for a long time. Even Miss Shen Su knows about it. Now, Second Young Master is in a hurry to marry Miss Shen, but Miss Shen announced that they had broken up unilaterally. Thatâs why Second Young Master wanted to force himself on her. Unexpectedly, there was a slip-up.â Lin Jun told him the truth.
Mu Guo gritted his teeth and said, âThis little bastard. 1 thought that he finally had some foresight after choosing Shen Su. I didnât expect him to still mess it up. Hmph! Itâs all because of his motherâs pampering! An indulgent mother will raise a loser! None of them are decent.â
Lin Jun deliberately sighed. âThatâs right. Itâs all the motherâs fault for not taking good care of the child. Our Mu Yao is still lying in the hospital. Itâs all my fault for not taking good care of her.â
Mu Guo patted Lin Junâs hand lightly. âWhy are you adding to the mess!â
Lin Jun smiled. âThatâs right! Why are you adding to the mess? Madam will naturally worry about Second Young Masterâs matters. You didnât care about it in the past, so what can you help now? 1 just know about this and want to tell you. Itâll be awkward if you hear others say it outside and donât know.â
Mu Guo sighed. âYouâre the only one who knows the big picture. Alright, I understand. 1â11 ignore them and let them cause trouble.â He turned around to change his clothes. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Jun looked at his back with a profound gaze before slowly putting away the box in her hand.
When Mu Guo came out, he saw Lin Jun holding a jade pendant in a daze. He walked over and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Lin Jun forced a smile, and there was a hint of sadness in her smile. âIâm thinking of Auntie.â
Mu Guoâs expression turned solemn. He said calmly, âPut it away.â He turned around and went to the garden.
Lin Jun hid behind the curtains in the kitchen, peeling an apple in her hand. She wanted to make a fruit plate, but her gaze didnât fall on the knife. Instead, she stared blankly at Mu Guo, who was smoking alone in the garden pavilion. How many years had passed? Just a title could stir his thoughts. That person must have been planted in his heart, right? Nothing in this world could compare to a strand of that personâs hair.
A sharp pain came from her hand. The knife cut her index finger, and blood flowed, dyeing the apple red.
Lin Jun stared at her bleeding finger as she continued to cut it. She chopped the apple into pieces and then chopped them into bits with blood. This bloody apple mush was extremely similar to her heart.
Everything in this world could not go according to oneâs wishes. Everyone had their own destiny that could not be resisted or violated. Relationships that were snatched from others, were extremely fragile, making one feel insecure. They did not know when it would be gone and they would be separated..
