Gu Liuyan slowly returned to Phoenix Cry Garden. She was lost in thought as she looked at the huge dead tree in the yard with its only leaf.
It had been more than two years since he came to the prince's mansion, but the only happy time he could experience here was to follow ghosts and learn martial arts, or perhaps it could be said that he had shared a bed with Duan Chengxuan for a few days.
But the gulf between them had been destroyed by both of them.
Duan Chengxuan made full use of his and then tried to make amends after doing something wrong. Moreover,hee had long since cooperated with the Third Prince, and although he didn't owe Duan Chengxuan too much, she was already hostile towards him.
”Even if I stayed, I would never be able to forget the past.” Gu Danyan sighed towards the dead tree and returned to his room. He didn't want to take a single step out of the room. He was only thinking about how he would leave when the time came.
She had already sent out all the people around her, so what should she do now that she was the only one left in the estate?
Her loved ones were unable to be relied on, but in the end, only her enemies remained.
At the same time, Su Yu Wan was rubbing the ointment that Mu Qing had found everywhere on the burn scars, so she naturally heard the news that Gu Liu Yan was running out of time. Duan Cheng Xuan was searching for a genius doctor for her, but she felt both hatred and joy in her heart, and when she saw the burn wound on her leg, she lost her patience and smashed the bottle of ointment onto the servant girl's head in anger: ”What are you looking at! Get lost already! ”
The maidservant bowed and left in tears, leaving behind the two people in the room.
”Who knows if this Gu Mingyan is using a trick or not.” Su Yuwan sneered. It seemed like she had used this method to stay by big brother Xuan's side. How could she believe that Gu Pingyan was really going to die now?
Mu Qing was also suspicious, ”But now, she doesn't allow anyone to get close to her.”
”Even so, we can't let her affect Big Brother Xuan's heart this much. Right now, the fight for the crown prince is at its most intense. If Gu Pingyan is acting this way for her, then when will I be able to properly stay by Big Brother Xuan's side?” As Su Yu Wan said this, she used her bare toes to gently hook up Mu Qing's clothes.
Mu Qing lightly breathed in and looked at her. ”Even if you don't do this, I will still help you.”
”Since we've known each other for so long, I naturally fear that you might have second thoughts. If you're unwilling, then forget about it.” Su Yu Wan pulled back her foot and lay down on the bed, looking at Mu Qing with her charming eyes.
Currently, she was only left with this empty piece of skin to use while Mu Qing adored her. If she did not give it to him and Mu Qing really had a second heart, then her dirty little thoughts would be gone as well.
As long as her heart was with Big Brother Xuan, that was enough.
By the time Mu Qing left with a refreshed expression, four hours later, the maidservant who hurriedly brought him dinner bowed and greeted him. He then heard Mu Qing speaking, ”Lady Wan'er does not like to eat these bitter fish, it would be better to take some light fish.”
”Yes, Doctor Mu Qing.” The maidservant looked at him strangely before returning to her room to change her clothes. She even muttered to herself, ”Doctor Mu Qing is truly devoted to Miss Su …”
Hearing this, Mu Qing lightly coughed a few times and only dusted off the dust on his body. His heart, however, was trembling with fear.
Previously when he moved the courtyard, Duan Chengxuan had already noticed it, but now, he had repeated the same mistake. Now that he had completed the task, he was instead worried and could only quickly head over to Phoenix Cry Garden in hopes that Su Yuwan would fulfill her wish.
The two of them sat on the tables and chairs by the door. Two books were in their hands, a pot of tea, and with the addition of Gu Liuyan's light yellow robe, it was easy to see that she had a saintly demeanor.
