"Brother Shuo, it's getting late. Ling 'er will go back first.”
"Right!"
"Sister Mu wants you to go to her room. She has something to tell you.”
In the evening, Zhong Ling hopped out of her room and said to Lin Shuo with a smile.
Lin Shuo was stunned for a moment before nodding and walking towards Mu Wanqing's room.
Zhong Ling giggled and turned to look at the four women who were cooking in the kitchen. She said,"Four sisters, Ling 'er will leave first!”
With that, Zhong Ling mumbled something and ran out of the courtyard.
Zhu Jian peeked at Mu Wanqing's room and whispered to Mei Jian,""Sister, why do you think Miss Mu is looking for Young Master?”
Mei Jian shook her head and said,""How would I know? Don't let your imagination run wild. It's getting late. Let's quickly prepare dinner.”
Bamboo Sword obviously didn't want to give up and said,""Sister, aren't you curious at all? Why don't we go over quietly and listen?”
However, Mei Jian's stern gaze answered her.
Bamboo Sword immediately dispelled his thoughts after Mei Jian looked at him like that. He quickly said,""If I'm not curious, I'm not curious. Sister, please spare me.”
"Pfft."
"Sister, look at Second Sister. She's clearly afraid that Sister will be angry, but she has to provoke Sister every time!”
Seeing Bamboo Sword from the Heart, Chrysanthemum Sword instantly laughed.
Bamboo Sword's pretty face turned red as she glared at Chrysanthemum Sword in embarrassment and anger, muttering,""What? I'm not afraid of Sister. Little Sister, you can't talk nonsense!”
......
Lin Shuo was stunned when he arrived at Mu Wanqing's room.
At this moment, she was not resting on the bed. Instead, she was dressed neatly and sitting at the table.
However, she did not wear a veil at this moment. Her face was pale and bloodless, and there was a hint of weakness between her brows, which made one feel sorry for her.
Lin Shuo slowly walked to the table and sat down. He said,""Miss Mu, why are you up? Aren't you going to rest for a while?”
Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Shuo with a complicated expression and said softly,""I've already been lying here for a day, and I'm fine now. Thank you for today. If it wasn't for you, I might have been killed by those evil servants.”
Obviously, although Mu Wanqing was dumb and did not see the situation outside the house, she could guess what had happened this morning.
Lin Shuo smiled and said," Those people are just ants. They're not much trouble. Miss Mu, don't worry about them. Ling 'er said that you were looking for me again. What's the matter?"”
Mu Wanqing was silent for a moment before she said,""I never knew who my parents were since I was young. Master said that she picked me up, so to me, Master is no different from my mother.”
Lin Shuo's mouth twitched. Qin Hongmian was Mu Wanqing's mother, so there was no difference.
However, Lin Shuo did not say anything because he knew that Mu Wanqing still had something to say.
As expected, Mu Wanqing glanced at Lin Shuo and continued,""When I was young, Master didn't let me leave the secluded valley at will, nor did he let me treat outsiders.
A few years ago, he even threatened me with death and made me swear an oath: If I don't marry the first person who sees my appearance, I must commit suicide or kill this man.”
Lin Shuo's eyes flashed and he hesitated," Is this the reason you committed suicide last night?"”
Mu Wanqing smiled bitterly and said,""That's right. I wanted to kill you with a single strike, but I didn't expect your martial arts to be so high. It would be a fool's dream to kill you, so I could only commit suicide.”
Lin Shuo's eyes flashed and he already had some guesses. He looked up at Mu Wanqing's beautiful face and said,""Are you still thinking of committing suicide?”
"No, even if I kill myself again, you will save me, right?”
Lin Shuo nodded,"That's right, I won't watch you die.".”
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Mu Wanqing's pale face and she said,""You saw my face, and I can't kill you, so I can only marry you!”
As she said that, a blush crept onto Mu Wanqing's pale face. However, she did not avoid it and stared at Lin Shuo, waiting for his response.
Lin Shuo was stunned. It was really as he thought!
Lin Shuo had a good impression of Mu Wanqing.
And after seeing Mu Wanqing's face, Lin Shuo admitted that he was really an ordinary person who liked beautiful women. He was moved!
Lin Shuo thought for a moment and said,""To be able to gain Miss Mu's favor is Lin Shuo's great fortune, but I can't marry Miss Mu yet.”
Mu Wanqing's heart trembled and she said dejectedly,""Master is right. All men in the world are heartless.”
"Forget it. Since you're not willing to marry me, then leave. I don't want to see you again.”
“......”
Seeing that Mu Wanqing had misunderstood, Lin Shuo smiled helplessly and said,""Miss Mu, you misunderstood me. It's not that I don't want to marry you, but I can't do it now.”
Hearing this, Mu Wanqing was delighted and quickly asked,""Really? Why?"
Lin Shuo smiled and explained," I'm a little similar to Miss Mu. We were both raised by Master. Now that I've come down the mountain under Master's orders, I naturally have to report to Master first before marrying you."
Besides, I haven't even reached the age of adulthood yet, so how can I marry you now?
After I return to the sect and report to master, I will marry you. What do you think?”
Mu Wanqing smiled sweetly and said,""I'll listen to Master Lin. Master Lin, don't call me miss. My name is Mu Wanqing. Master Lin, just call me Wan 'er.”
Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Shuo curiously and asked,""Lin, Wan 'er doesn't know Lin's identity yet.”
Lin Shuo didn't hide anything and said,""Wan 'er, I was picked up by Granny Yu at the foot of Sky Mountain nineteen years ago. She brought me back to the Vulture Palace.
Later, I became Master's disciple and the young master of the Vulture Palace.
I left the Vulture Palace with Mei Jian and the others a while ago. I only came to Dali yesterday and met Ling 'er. You should know what happened after that.”
“......”
"Mister Lin, what kind of sect is the Vulture Palace? Why have I never heard of it?”
Mu Wanqing was puzzled. She had been wandering around the martial world all these years, but why had she never heard of the Vulture Palace?
However, Lin Shuo was only a year older than her, but his cultivation was far above hers. Presumably, the Vulture Palace was not simple.
Lin Shuo smiled and said," The Vulture Palace is far away from the Central Plains. Wan-Er, it's normal that you haven't heard of it. It's getting late. Mei Jian and the others should have prepared dinner. I'll tell you more about it later."”
"Yes, those four girls who look exactly the same are..."
A gentle look flashed across Lin Shuo's eyes as he said,""They are the maids that Master arranged for me. They have taken care of me since I was young. In my heart, they are the same as Master.
Of course, Wan 'er, you're also the closest person to me now.”
Mu Wanqing smiled sweetly and said,""Lin, let's go out and see the four sisters.”
"Good!"
Lin Shuo stood up and walked to Mu Wanqing's side to help her out of the room.
