Yun Muxi had now developed a phobia for phones. She picked it up warily and stared at the screen. Her eyes played tricks on her and she thought she saw the same anonymous sender again. When she opened the message, she realized that it was not a video. Instead, it was a simple greeting: Xiao Xi, have you been well? I've been busy recently and didn't have time to contact you! I miss you. Yun Muxi looked at the sender's name again. Instead of the anonymous sender, it was Lu Yang.
Yun Muxi's heart which had been beating profusely finally calmed down. She patted her chest as she took in deep breaths. A car pulled up in front of her and a pair of customized male leather shoes appeared before her. Looking up, she realized it was Murong Ye.
He frowned at her and asked out of concern, "Why do you look so bad? Is it your injury again?"
Yun Muxi's face was like a blank canvas decorated with two dark eye circles. Her pinkish lips were now colorless. She looked terribl
Yun Muxi paused. It seemed like it was too early to be happy. "What request?" Murong Qingtian fixed his gaze on her and spoke in a pitiful voice, full of the loneliness and sorrows of an old person, "Don't you have a daughter? I'm of age now and getting lonely, bring the kid and come stay with me for a few days! It's lonely staying in the big house all by myself and eating alone. It would be fun to have a kid to make things lively around here." Murong Ye could not help but stole a glance at Murong Qingtian. He was surprised. They say the older you are, the wiser you are. This is a sly move. Yun Munxi frowned and answered in a solemn voice, "I'm afraid I can't do that. Niannian has been with me since young, she has never left my side. Regardless of whether I agree or not, I don't think she'll agree. She's still a child and is very fragile, it wouldn't be good to force her to bring her here by force." Murong Qingtian's face turned stiff. Indeed, you
Yun Muxi knew that something was wrong. "Sir, how long has that car behind us been there?" The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and was very suspicious too. "For quite some time, I think. It seems to have followed us all the way. It looks like a normal car, so I didn't notice it at first. It does seem a bit strange." Yun Muxi said to him nervously, "Sir, please start driving, we'll go in." The car embarked onto the mountain road and the car did not follow behind. Yun Muxi was finally relieved. Soon, they arrived at the big gate, which opened slowly within a few seconds after the car stopped. The driver glanced at Yun Muxi and she nodded. "Please go in!" The driver had opened his eyes to a whole new world. He would never have had the chance to see a manor house like this! He glanced at Yun Muxi through the rearview mirror once more. This time around, his eyes were filled with admiration for the rich. When they reached the big door, th
Yun Muxi was completely scared and jumped up. She trembled with fear and looked at the mobile phone as if it were a bomb. The ringing of the phone was especially harsh in the empty room. She felt that the ringtone of the mobile phone at this moment was like a spell and the pain it brought drilled into her brain like the drilling of a drill. Yun Muxi squatted down with her head in her arms. Her body was cold and sweaty, her eyebrows were twisted together and her face was as white as a sheet. However, it seemed that the ringtone of the mobile phone would never stop, and it kept ringing over and over again. Finally, the ringing tone stopped while the doorbell rang. Yun Muxi looked at the door in horror, just like Death standing there. She did not dare to breathe and completely lost her ability to think. Her brain was blank, and she was staring at the door dully. A familiar voice came from the gate, "Xiao Xi, are you inside?"
The old woman repeatedly said to her, "Girl, drink it ,and you will get rid of all troubles!" The voice of the old woman seemed to be tempting. Yun Muxi was about to drink the bowl of water obediently while suddenly she heard someone calling her. She turned back to find out who he or she was. The old woman began to urge her to drink the bowl of water quickly. After a while, the old woman began to force her mouth open impatiently, trying to fill the bowl of water into it. Yun Muxi began to struggle desperately and suddenly she exclaimed, "Don't..." Yun Muxi woke up from her sleep, and opened her eyes to see a strange room. The door was suddenly pushed open and a person was walking forward. Yun Muxi looked at him for a long time and she recognized that it was Murong Ye when he finally stood in front of her. Murong Ye frowned, and his cold voice was mingled with obvious pity, "How do you make yourself so embarrassed?" With
Yun Muxi's heart hurt and she realized that he was going to leave. In her heart, a cloud of sadness spread out. She was deeply reluctant to part with him, but she responded calmly, "Fine, come back. It belongs to you." Gong Yu's arms in her waist became tighter, and he said, "I mean, I want to go back with you. In Mu Xia, I have the ability to protect you, but I find myself weak like insects here. I can't protect myself, how can I protect you?" Yun Muxi's heart ached once again and a layer of mist was formed in her eyelids. "Xiao Xi, can we go back to the country of Mu Xia? We can go back with Niannian. I believe I can bring you back since I brought the Little Cutie here. I have the ability to protect you when we go back there and we can also find a life without fights." Gong Yu's words were too emotional and deeply attracted Yun Muxi. She wanted to say "Yes", but she could not say a word. Her tears poured out fiercely,
Tong Nan left after saying the words. Zhang Jingting looked at Gong Yu and Seventh Brother and left later. The ward was restored to silence, and Seventh Brother asked faintly, "Gong Yu, Tong Nan seems to have been hurt by you." With his back to Seventh Brother, Gong Yu said coldly, "So what?" "Why don't you consider the feelings of others? Do you only care about Xiao Xi?" "Yes! I lived only for Xiao Xi! I don't care about other people!" Looking at Gong Yu, Seventh Brother could say nothing and he only asked, "Have you ever considered what if Xiao Xi choose the other men at last?" Gong Yu suddenly got up and his eyes were filled with coldness. At dusk. Seventh Brother who was busy dealing with online comments suddenly cried out, "Holy fuck!" Gong Yu looked at him acidly. Seventh Brother did not look up at Gong Yu at all, and h
"Can I refuse?" "Do you think you can say no to dad's instructions?" "But he promised not to force me, right?" "That's because you still don't know much about this old fox. If he did this, there must be a reason to do so, but we don't know his next move." But Murong Ye did not know that Murong Qingtian was accommodating Yun Muxi this time and he did not have any ulterior motives. He called them back for dinner because he was lonely after Niannian left and he wanted them back to enliven the atmosphere. Despite her hesitation, Yun Muxi decided to come over for dinner. After all, it was just a dinner and if she made Murong Qingtian furious, she could not bear the consequences. The three people came to the old house of the Murong family. As soon as they entered the door, Murong Qingtian couldn't wait to run to Niannain. Murong Qingtian picked up her and asked kindly, "Niannian, do you miss gr
Yun Muxi did not adapt to Murong Qingtian's way of thinking and she looked at him blankly. Murong Ye just said faintly, "You must adapt to my father's bossy attitudes. At Murong family, he is the master and everyone must listen to his instructions. He is also accustomed to arranging things for others based on his own idea, so you'd better accept it as soon as possible!" Niannian was very naive and she was excited to hear that they could live here tonight. She said to her mother, "Mummy, I can continue to sleep in my princess room if we live here tonight. That room is beautiful. Tonight, I want to sleep with Mommy on the princess bed." After dinner, Niannian couldn't wait to lead her mother back to the room. Yun Muxi was shocked by Murong Qingtian's care for Niannian when she saw the princess room designed for her daughter. In this short period of time, he created a super luxurious baby room. In addition, the main color of the pink-blue
Lu Yang also saw Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu and also felt a little bit shocked. He stepped forward to greet them. "Xiao Xi, Gong Yu, why are you here?" Murong Yunxi looked at Lu Yang with a smile. Many years had passed by, the past had gone with the wind. Lu Yang was just one of her good friends and they seemed to be more comfortable in this way. "Yeah, we came for a movie, but I didn't like it, so we left before the ending!" Subsequently, Murong Yun turned to a woman behind Lu Yang who looked familiar. "Lu Yang, is this your...?" Lu Yang put on a bitter smile. "Oh, you know that I am in a situation of being forced to get married. This is a girl that my big brother introduced to me for a blind date." Lu Yang had nothing to hide because he had no intention to get married to this woman, so he shared his thoughts directly to avoid any misunderstandings, let alone he had no intention to make her his girlfriend. This woman did not rea
Twelve years later. "Luoluo, come to help me!" Lying face down on her big bed, Murong Niannian complained to her good friend through her mobile phone. She was simply so depressed inside. Yan Chuluo was Murong Niannian's best friend, and their friendship was very solid. Although Yan Chuluo was five years older than Murong Niannian, Murong Niannian, a mature girl, did not have any difficulty communicating with her. Their relationship was even more harmonious than those of her peers. "Well, my dear girl, I'm too busy to attend to you now. I even don't have any leisure for myself," replied Yan Chuluo, who was reading the latest military newspaper on a closestool. Yan Chuluo actually could not attend to her talented friend at the moment because she fell in love with a man. More exactly, she fell in love with him in secret only at one glance. "Well, you just went to receive military training. By the way, your grandfathe
S City— The doorbell was ringing outside. After finding that it was a courier delivering a parcel, Gu Yuxuan answered the door and signed for the delivery. After closing the door, Gu Yuxuan leaned against the door, overwhelmed by sadness. The express delivery belonged to Yun Muxi, which should be her admission letter according to the mailing address. However, Yun Muxi had disappeared for almost a month. Gu Yuxuan stood with her back against the door and slowly slid down on the ground as her tears kept falling down. Gu Yuxuan held the parcel and put one hand on her knees, covering her eyes with the other. Her tears streamed down through her fingers, and she cried silently. In fact, she had cried countless times this month. Father Yun had gone to Africa and kept working after arriving there, so that they were out of touch. Neither could she convey the news of Xiao Xi's disappearance to Father Yun, nor did she know how to tell oth
The bottle was in the shape of a gourd and was smooth and delicate. What was the most special part was the handle of the bottle, which was also made of a little gourd. The two gourds were cleverly connected by a vine. It looked like the bigger gourd was holding the small one while the small one wrapped onto the large one. The lip was the root of the vine, showing a natural and smooth combination. The bottle's shape was delicate and refined. Every detail showed unique ingenuity, subtly revealing a sense of tenderness in its mellow lines. The two gourds were like a mother and daughter. The mother showed her infinite love for her daughter, while the daughter relied on her mother. The two were made of crystal-white porcelain, while the vine was lush green with no extra impurities. Duanmu Gongyu opened the lid and extended his nose to smell it. A rich smell of wine rushed to him with a faint fragrance like a kind of flower. Duanmu Gongyu could not tell what it
Duanmu Gongcheng felt somewhat shameless upon seeing Duanmu Gongyu's shock, and he lowered his head to say, "It's my fault! I am too... I hope you don't blame me." Duanmu Gongyu felt happy to remedy the misunderstanding with his brother and nodded while saying, "I don't blame you, Big Brother. I have arranged for my people to deal with those bad guys. You don't have to be worried." Duanmu Gongcheng could not adapt to this change and still felt embarrassed at the moment. He said, "Third Brother, you've just come back, so I came to check on your injury. Since you're fine, I should not bother you. You're so tired after a long journey. Have a rest and I will come to visit you later." Then, Duanmu Gongcheng asked to leave in a hurry. Nanny Wu suddenly felt embarrassed when only Duanmu Gongyu, Yun Muxi, and she were there. She said in a hurry, "My Lord, you should have a rest and I will go to prepare food for you. You must not have e
After pausing for a moment, Duanmu Gongyu stared fixedly at Hei Ye as if he had something to say. Hei Ye was confused by Duanmu Gongyu's actions and wondered if he had a problem, but he dared not to ask Duanmu Gongyu if the fear that he would enrage Duanmu Gongyu, who had been in anger during the past several days. Looking as if he had made up his mind, Duanmu Gongyu cleared his throat and his face blushed as he said with an unnatural expression, "Hmm... it seems... Xiao Xi... is angry at me..." Duanmu Gongyu stuttered as he did not how to express his thoughts, but the long-lasting cold war between Duanmu Gongyu and Yun Muxi made Hei Ye understand Duanmu Gongyu's meanings at once. Hei Ye said to Duanmu Gongyu in embarrassment, "Your Highness, I didn't have any experience in dealing with girls, so, I don't exactly know how to solve this, but... usually, in such a situation, men should take the initiative to coax women. Don't feel shy to do th
Yun Muxi felt at ease enjoying such a peaceful and beautiful moment. Her parents had been busy with their work and left her alone at home since she was a child, and luckily, she had a good friend, Xuanxuan, accompany her; otherwise, she would have left a lonely life. She was quite satisfied that now Duanmu Gongyu accompanied her, took care of her, and loved her. She enjoyed the peaceful moment quietly. ... At sunset, the carriage arrived in Xinyang City. As soon as they entered the city, Duanmu Gongyu sensed something strange. He said to Hei Ye in a cold tone, "Hei Ye, put on your guards." Since Duanmu Gongyu always had a keen instinct, Hei Ye put on his highest guard at Duanmu Gongyu's reminder. Lan Yun surveyed around warily and looked out for everything that would happen. Hei Ye drove the carriage to a tasteful hotel, which was neither the biggest one nor the most luxurious one in the city. The reason why he chose such an in
Before walking long, Yun Muxi came across Duanmu Gongyu. She cast her anger behind her back and said to him happily, "Look, Gong Yu, I found a puppy. Isn't it cute?" Duanmu Gongyu was allergic to animals, especially furry ones. He measured the puppy with a frown and a look of disdain. As if the puppy had sensed Duanmu Gongyu's hostility against it, it barked at him in a wary way. Duanmu Gongyu furrowed his eyebrows even deeply. A long while passed, and he finally replied, "No, not at all. It is not that friendly to me." Yun Muxi defended the puppy hurriedly by saying, "No, it's just too small and afraid of strangers." In Yun Muxi's arms, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu warily once again. Still in a frown, Duanmu Gongyu said in a cold tone, "It does look unfriendly. It warned me to stay away from it." Right then, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu several times more in a warning way. Yun Muxi stroked
The time needed for an incense stick to burn passed by in the blink of an eye. Lan Yun indeed came over carrying two big handfuls of skewers. Since they were in the wilderness and they had never seen how modern-day skewers looked, although the skewers he made were somewhat close, it was still different from the modern-day ones. The wooden sticks were thick, and the meat cubes were also bigger. The shapes were not cut into long shapes as they do in the modern world. Lan Yun's skewers looked more like tanghulu. But Yun Muxi was still amazed that he could deliver such great results so quickly. "Lan Yun, if I bring you to where I came from, you could earn quite a lot just by making lu chuan! You're basically god-speed." Lan Yun felt awkward after hearing it. He had put in so much effort to equip himself with all these skills just for him to go there and make lu chuan? This Miss Yun had such a wild imagination. Hei Ye was very alert
