Musen was puzzled." How come I didn't know that I said that I liked 'Soft Smoke Luo'?" She thought to herself," He must have mistaken me for someone else." She looked at the rooms carefully. They were indeed different. From afar, they looked like smoke. Coupled with the scenery, they looked more like a fairyland. She looked at the gauze again. It was the color of the sky after the rain. The pattern was of a white butterfly crossing flowers. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that this was the gauze used in the main room of her First Aunt's residence. She thought it looked good at that time. He had pestered her aunt to say that she liked it too and wanted to use it as a window screen. That was just a whim of hers. How would he know? Why would he remember? When did this happen? Yes, it was before she entered the Flying Guillotine at the age of ten. Later on, her aunt sent someone to send it over. They did not use it because of the series of troubles and helplessness that followed. They had all forgotten, but he remembered. How did he know? Mu Sen couldn't help but tremble. She was so scared that she suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at her. She had to get out of here. She suddenly lifted her wrist that Hongli was holding tightly and slammed it against the pillar. Although her wrist was wrapped by Hongli's strong and big hand, she used all her strength to hit it. However, Hongli seemed to be fine. She was in so much pain that tears almost fell from her eyes. Although it was painful, Mu Sen still knocked it against the pillar without hesitation. Seeing that he still did not let go, she said hatefully,"Let go of me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Sen was slapped hard on the face. Hongli had been suppressing his anger and slowly told her about this. Unexpectedly, she was unwilling to accept it at all. It was certain that she rejected all of this. She held Mu Sen's chin with her left hand and said gently with a gloomy face,"This king doesn't like disobedient women. Why are you so disobedient?”Musen was terrified. She could hear the unpredictable anger in his gentle voice.
After saying that, Hongli began to caress her cheek and said with heartache,"Does it hurt?" He didn't wait for Mu Sen to answer because he knew that even if she answered, it wouldn't be the answer he wanted. He pulled her to the stone table under the wisteria flower rack and sat down. He called for someone to serve tea. After a while, a servant girl brought tea. Hong Li smiled at Mu Sen and said,"Try it. Is this your favorite tea?”He pointed to the two maids and said,"I prepared them for you. How about it?"”
The two servant girls were nervous and flustered. They had stayed in the courtyard to clean up and were waiting for the master to arrive. They had just entered the courtyard and the two of them had come out to welcome them. However, they did not expect such a scene. They were so frightened that they did not dare to move forward. They could only stand in the distance with their hands hanging by their sides, waiting for instructions.
Mu Sen hated Hong Li to the core. Why did he force others to do things he didn't like without caring about their feelings? He said hatefully,"I don't like it." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his left wrist, as if his bones had been crushed. He couldn't help but cry out in pain. He hurriedly used his right hand to break off Hongli's hand, but he still didn't move. Mu Sen couldn't take it anymore. No matter how stubborn and headstrong she was, she was still a young girl. She had never faced fear alone. Before she was ten years old, she had Gong-e Yilan to protect her. After she was ten years old, she had Leng and her brothers to protect her, especially Leng. Every time she was helpless and afraid, he would stand by her side and bring her warmth to drive away the wind and rain. She also relied on and trusted Leng more. If Leng was here today, all of this would not have happened. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She lay on the table and cried helplessly. She secretly made up her mind. I don't want to let the cold leave me anymore.
She hated Hongli for what he did to her today. She didn't understand why he did this to her. Did he really catch a butterfly for her many years ago? If that's the case, I'll just return it to him.
Hongli hated her too.'I've always treated you well, why do you always reject me? If that's the case, why did she say those words when I went to see her that day? I was full of hope for so many days, but you gave me such a result. As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.' Thinking of this, he unconsciously reached out to touch Mu Sen's long hair. It was like black silk flowing down her shoulders. He stroked it back and forth carefully. It was smooth and soft, making people unable to put it down. He leaned over and whispered into her ear,""Why do you always cry when you see me? Do you hate me so much? But it doesn't matter. This king has plenty of time to accompany you today. You can cry slowly. When you're tired of crying, you can stop and we'll talk again.”
Musen was sobbing on the stone table and did not notice Hongli playing with her long hair with one hand. Hearing this, she stopped crying and sat up straight. Hongli saw her tear-stained face and reached out to test her tears. Musen quickly turned away and wiped his tears."You crushed my bones." Her entire left arm and shoulder were aching, and she couldn't stand it anymore. She said that, but Hongli acted as if he didn't hear her and just raised his head to signal for her to drink some tea. Although Mu Sen was unwilling, he had no choice but to take a sip.
"How is it? Do you like it?" Hongli asked with a smile.”
How could Mu Sen still taste the tea? He said,"I don't like it."
Hongli said sternly to the two maids,""Change the tea to another tea and let Young Lady try it until Young Lady likes it.”
Mu Sen was shocked and thought to himself, This person is too abnormal. He quickly said,"No need. I like this tea."
"Do you really like it?" Hongli asked kindly.”
Musen reminded himself that he couldn't be so stubborn and willful anymore. The person in front of him would not care about her or tolerate her. The best thing to do was to go home as soon as possible. Thus, he nodded with tears in his eyes and said,"If you have something to say, say it. I'm listening.”
Seeing her gentle tone, Hongli raised his head to the two servant girls, indicating for them to leave. The servant girls understood and were eager to do so, so they quickly bowed and left. Only the two of them were left in the courtyard."Do you know my intentions?"
"I know," Musen replied obediently this time.”However, he then added,"You should put all your effort into Mu Qing. She's going to marry you soon. You have to treat her well."”
Hongli was happy when he heard her first sentence, but when he heard what Musen said after that, he suddenly realized that he was going to marry Mu Qing, not Musen. He was disappointed and had to face the truth. His strength gradually decreased. Musen immediately felt it and quickly got up. He used his left hand to break free from Hongli's control. However, when Hongli pulled him down, Musen lost his balance and fell into Hongli's arms. Mu Sen was shocked and quickly got up. How could Hongli let go of such a good opportunity? He hugged her tightly. She smelled really good, coming from the purest and most natural fragrance. Everything was about to belong to him, but someone suddenly told him that it wasn't the right time. It didn't belong to him now. Whoever crushed his dream would bear the responsibility. Hence, he whispered into Musen's ear,""Do you think my Ce Fujin wronged you? Or do you think I can't subdue you? I'd like to see how a butterfly like you can fly over my vast sea.”
