C115 (1/2)
Mu Yanran returned to Mount Kunlun.
She originally wanted to secretly go down the mountain, but she didn't expect that there wasn't much movement from Karakorum. She originally thought that returning to Karakorum would take a lot of effort, but when she met the vice principal, Xie Shuo mentioned it first.
”I heard that your mother died in misfortune. Yanran, you must grieve.”
Mu Yanran quickly squeezed out a few tears from her eyes, ”Thank you for the vice principal's concern.”
”Alright, just come back. You only need to remember that Karakorum is your home. It's getting late today, so you should go rest first. Tomorrow, when you're better, you can go to class. ”Recently, spring has just arrived. The scenery of Karakorum is really pleasing to the eyes. It is also good to be able to walk around a lot.”
After bidding farewell to Xie Shuo, Mu Yanran returned to her own yard, with only Cui Yun by her side.
After Cui Yun helped her change her clothes, Mu Yanran said, ”Cui Yun, go take a look over there. I'll leave tutoring them to you. I'm worried about Pearl being there alone. ”
”But, Madam, you are the only one here.”
”Don't worry, I can handle myself. Don't let anything go wrong there. ”
Cui Yun nodded and left first.
When night fell, Mu Yanran was still awake. She put on her clothes and walked to the outside of the courtyard. She slowly arrived at a deserted place on the back mountain.
In her hand was a basket full of waxed paper money.
She stuck the burning incense wax into the ground and set the paper money on fire. She watched the paper money burn red and then the company turned to ashes.
She muttered to herself, ”Mother, don't blame your daughter for being heartless. Your daughter was forced to do this. However, don't worry, your daughter will definitely think of a way to kill that bitch Mu Ye and take revenge for you. I won't let you sacrifice yourself for nothing. ”
The paper money that had been burned to ashes swirled in the air with the wind and finally disappeared.
Mu Yanran stared blankly as tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
A sound came from behind him.
She had heard it earlier, but purposely didn't look back.
Elder Huo followed the light of the fire and saw a miserable young woman standing in the cold wind under the weak light. Her clothes fluttered in the wind, outlining her beautiful figure.
Mu Yanran was indeed very beautiful and charming. This kind of woman was a huge blow to any man. Especially the current her, under the cold radiance of the moon, she was dressed in pure white clothes, her long hair flowing down to her waist, her face slightly pale, her delicate features outlining the image of a goddess descending to the mortal world.
Elder Huo's temper wasn't good, but his temper was abnormally fierce, like fire.
All of a sudden, he saw this scene and was stunned.
Elder Huo was also a Spirit Race member who was able to control natural elements. And Lei Huo was the youngest of the five great elders.
Strands of red hair that had never been trimmed covered his age. The lifespan of the natural elements clansmen were very long, but in comparison to ordinary humans, he was only slightly more than thirty years.
Very young indeed.
He wanted to go over, but he was worried that he would disturb this mental state.
The thunder and fire wanted to retreat, but just as they lifted their feet, they stepped on a branch and broke it, creating a light sound.
It attracted Mu Yanran's attention.
She looked over and asked softly, ”Who is it?”
Lei Huo walked out from behind the tree, ”It's me.”
”Elder Huo.” Mu Yanran looked at him with a smile on her face, but her tears were still on her cheeks. Such a sight made his heart break.
Lei Huo couldn't help but reach out to wipe the tears off of her face. When he realized that something was wrong with his hand, he quickly withdrew it and took out a towel from his waist.
”Here.”
Mu Yanran understood the relationship between a man and a woman very well. She suddenly came up with a plan. With a shy and timid expression, she took the towel and gently wiped her eyes.
She sobbed softly, her slim body shivering in the cold wind.
When Lei Huo saw this, he immediately took off his outer robe and was about to put it on for Mu Yanran.
”Elder Huo, you are my teacher. This isn't good, right?” She slightly frowned, looking especially beautiful. Seeing the embarrassment in Lei Huo's eyes, she took the initiative to take the clothes and place them on herself.
”Thank you.”
”What are you burning?” The atmosphere between the two suddenly became ambiguous. Lei Huo glanced at the incense and changed the topic.
My father was framed, and my mother was imprisoned. Before their daughter could make a clear decision for them, the fire in the imperial city had taken away their mother's life. As a daughter, I couldn't even bury my mother's corpse in the ground.
Her voice was sad and charming.
His tears were crystal clear as they splashed into the palm of his hand, burning his heart. At that moment, his heart suddenly thumped, as if he must do something to comfort her heart, so that his own heart would be at peace.
And that night, some things were different.
In terms of trying to win over a man, Mu Yanran was much stronger than Mu Wei, but Mu Wan Yun only needed to tie down a person's heart. Moreover, she didn't even need to intentionally place Yu Lie's heart on her.
When Jin Yulie returned to the manor, Mu Wenyun had just returned as well.
She knew that Mu En Ze had come to find her, so she couldn't hide it from Jin Yu Lie. Thus, she decided to be frank with him.
”What do you want to do?” He was just asking the result.
”He is my biological father after all, right? I can't just sit by and watch as he begs, can I? So I'm going to let him enjoy his peaceful old age. ”However …”
Before she even finished speaking, Jin Yu Lie had already pressed down on her. His hand was on her waist.
