Only with this, Master could thoroughly see what kind of person Nan Suyi was.
Even if everything was not revealed in the end, Master would only be angry that he was blinded and would never blame Mother for this.
“You…” Mu Ling’s eyes flared with anger again. But after seeing Mu Huan’s stubborn face, he finally relented. “I will not do such a thing. Not only because Suyi would never do that, but also that the Mu family’s face is not allowed to be discredited.”
Announcing that Suyi was in a relationship with another man? The shame was still his—Mu Ling!
He could not afford losing face like this!
Moreover, although Suyi would no longer forgive him, she would not accept other men so easily.
Mu Ling was still very confident about this!
Mu Huan straightened her sleeves fiercely. Without saying a word, she turned around and left…
***
In the Mu family.
There seemed to be a terrifying storm.
Chen Qingyan had come back one day later than Mu Huan. She hurried to the old master’s courtyard when she returned. However, she was told that the old master had already moved out of the courtyard. Her face suddenly changed and her eyes were gloomy.
“Who allowed you to let Father move out of the courtyard? Did you treat the old master harshly when I was not around?”
The people shivered. They kneeled down in a row with fear in their eyes.
Lady Qingyan was not like Lady Suyi. She always had a good temper. This was the first time she had become angry. The weight of the old master in her heart was obvious.
“Qingyan.”
A gentle voice came from behind.
Mu Ling’s anger toward Mu Huan had disappeared immediately when he saw Chen Qingyan. He said tenderly, “What happened? Why are you losing your temper when you have just returned?”
He believed that Qing Yan was not a person who was easily provoked. Someone must have provoked her.
“Brother Ling.”
Chen Qingyan was in tears. She sobbed. “I have only just left for a while. Why has the old master moved to Second Brother’s courtyard?”
“Oh, regarding this matter,” Mu Ling shook his head with a grin. “Somehow, the old master had always been always asking to move out. I couldn’t stop him, so I agreed to let him move out. You can follow him if you want.”
Chen Qingyan’s face was a little pale. No, absolutely not! The old master must come back to the east courtyard. He should never leave the east courtyard!
“Brother Ling.” Chen Qingyan lowered her head with tears in her eyes. “The east courtyard is a place suitable for healing. I am saying this for the old master’s sake. Furthermore, I have planted many spirit plants and placed them around the courtyard to help to enhance the old master’s recovery. Second Brother’s courtyard is not bad, but after all, it is a bit remote and unsuitable for curing illness. How could you agree with the old master?”
Although she was criticizing him, Mu Ling’s heart softened again because he could see that Chen Qingyan was really concerned about the old master.
“Qing Yan, the old master can be very stubborn at times. I can’t do anything. I will persuade him when I have the time. He is my father. I can’t be too tough on him.”
Sometimes, Mu Ling was still a filial son. However, he valued fame and fortune too much. He dared not let the people know that the old master’s strength was getting poorer.
Chen Qingyan panicked and pursed her lip tightly. “But, Brother Ling…”
“My father’s birthday is coming. Just let him stay there for the meantime. I will try to get him to move back after his birthday is over. I know you said all this for my father’s sake. Even though the old master is now living in Second Brother’s courtyard, you can still go visit him. Second Brother will not dare to stop you.”
