Chapter 081 – Torturing Zhong Hui (Second Shift) (2 / 2)

Zhong Hui wasn’t angry, but said lightly, “Didn’t my sister know early on that I was originally thin-skinned, and since he came back unharmed and refused to come see me, why should I make a fool of myself”

Mu Zi Yan sneered, “Sister-in-law is quite understanding.”

“Sister, don’t praise me, but in turn, it leaves me at a loss for words.” After Zhong Hui ordered her makeup, she raised her steps and stepped out of the inner room.

Mu Zi Yan turned around and blocked her, “Zhong Hui, I think Second Miss Zhong knows your bottom line, I think I have to personally go forward to pay a visit to Second Miss Zhong, she is a profit-oriented person, if I offer an attractive offer, she will naturally tell me the truth.”

Hearing her say so, Zhong Hui’s eyes lowered as she crossed a smear of killing intent, “Sister don’t force me to do it, or else your brother will have a hard time keeping his life.”

“Enough,” an angry voice sounded at this moment, and she saw Mu Lingxuan standing in front of her with a gloomy face.

Zhong Hui’s eyes flashed with a touch of imperceptible obscurity, and then she resumed that cold demeanor, “Since Husband is willing to come back, then my concubine will serve Husband well.”

Mu Lingxuan looked at the beautiful and gentle face in front of him, but that brow and eyes were filled with viciousness, the wall in his heart finally collapsed, he gradually became gentle and turned his eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan, “Sister and go back first, I have something to say with your sister-in-law.”

Mu Zi Yan’s heart was relieved, as long as her brother was able to face it, then she wouldn’t be able to avoid it all together.

Mu Lingxuan did not want to escape, just want to let themselves calm down, but, but in the end, can not let go, even if she hated her, or not willing to accept the reality, so it was that decadent.

And at this time, when he faced her once again, all the pain in his heart seems to gradually turn into indifference at this moment, he thought that her deep love for him was unrepentant, but it turned out to be nothing more than an illusion.

What he loved was the Jong Hye she had deliberately disguised, not this Jong Hye who stood so strangely in front of him.

The Zhong Hui in his heart is dead, so why should he torture himself?

Mu Zi Yan turned to leave, then saw Sister Cui standing at the head of the courtyard, she went up and shook her head at Sister Cui, and then went to the Jiyue Courtyard.

Jo saw her return and whispered, “Your brother will be fine.”

Mu Zi Yan leaned in Qiao’s arms, at this moment, she only wanted to snuggle in her mother’s arms like this, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

Now that there are only two people left in the inner room, Zhong Hui hooked her lips and smiled lightly, frankly staring at Mu Lingxuan, I don’t know how long it took, she smiled delicately, “Husband is going to stand here until it gets dark”

Mu Lingxuan faintly retracted his gaze, “Sit down.”

Zhong Hui hadn’t expected him to become so calm with himself, and at the moment, she wanted to laugh, but she couldn’t.

She sat down gracefully and poured the tea herself and pushed it in front of him, “You’re worried I poisoned you”

Mu Lingxuan, however, picked up the cup and drank it in one go before putting it down, “I won’t repudiate you.”

Zhong Hui’s hand lurched slightly, “You’ll kill me”

“No.” Mu Lingxuan looked straight at her, “Since you married into the Marquis Mu, when I married you that day, I promised that I would only have one wife for you in this life, and I, Mu Lingxuan, never go back on my word.”

Zhong Hui raised her eyes to look at him and suddenly laughed, “Mu Lingxuan, you’re the dumbest idiot in this world.”

Mu Lingxuan, however, slowly got up, “I’ll move in here, and I’ll treat you as before.”

Zhong Hui saw that after he said that, he turned around and left, she collected the smile at the corner of her mouth and collapsed into a chair disheveledly, when she made her move to kill him, she had already prepared herself for Mu Lingxuan to kill her after she missed.

But now she stared blankly ahead, but couldn’t stop asking herself, “What the hell is this for?”

Mu Lingxuan raised his eyes and looked at the blue sky in front of him, this moment he was relieved, he still turned into that warm and gentle Mu Shizi, then he went to Qiao’s courtyard.

When Mu Zi Yan saw him look like this, her heart was filled with doubt, but she also knew that this was something between her brother and Zhong Hui, she could not intervene and could not intervene.

Mu Lingxuan bowed towards Qiao, “Mother, this matter will be dealt with by my child, can I ask mother not to intervene”

“Good.” Jo agreed, seeing that he already had an idea.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Mu Ling Xuan, wanting to say something, she just looked at him worriedly.

Mu Lingxuan smiled gently at Mu Ziyan, “Sister will be going to the Divine Healer Sect in a few days, will she be able to make it back on the eighth day of next month”

“Brother don’t worry, I will definitely rush back.” Mu Zi Yan smiled back, perhaps, she should let go and let her brother work it out on his own.

Mu Zi Yan went back to the Smoke Drop Courtyard, her expression looked a little weary, the things that happened over the past few days made her whole nerves tense, and now that it could finally come to an end, she was a little uncomfortable instead.

Yunxiang felt that Missy should rest for a few days and not worry anymore, she turned her eyes to Bi Yun and said in a low voice, “Go and bring the soup that was warmed up early in the morning.”

“En.” Biyun nodded and then went on her way.

Yunxiang looked at Mu Ziyan, “Eldest Miss, the second master was chased all the way and lost a lot of people, when he rushed back he had already lost half of his life, and that arm is considered to be completely wasted.”

“This is just the beginning.” Mu Zi Yan knew of Mu Qing Ran’s ambitions, only she was more concerned now about what the old madam would do next

As the sky darkened, Mu Zi Yan was about to rest, when she heard a slight movement coming from outside the house, she alertly got up and saw a white shadow suddenly fall.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes moved slightly, did not palm the lamp, but was able to sense from the other party’s breath is who it is, she through the night, can not clearly see it at the moment, but saw that he is slowly walking towards himself.

She took a few steps backward slightly, “I wonder what Mr. Chu’s late night visit is about”

Chu Ye stopped, also not polite to sit down, fingertip flick, a side of the candle flame has gradually light up, Bi Yun outside the rest, also about to the ringing, they want to get up to come, but was Chu Ye pointing the acupoints through the air.

He was wearing a bucket hat, it was hard to see his face, but that all-around sprightly aura was haunting the entire house at the moment, Mu Zi Yan frowned slightly, and the two of them were staring at each other like this.

“If you don’t say anything, you can leave on your own.” Mu Zi Yan spoke with some impatience.

Chu Ye did not expect that, but because of the matter of the Crown Prince, she would treat herself differently he slightly raised his eyebrows, “Tonight, the Crown Prince has been sent to the palace.”

“Mr. Chu, there is no consensus between you and I. Nowadays, I just want to live some clean days, and am unwilling to have any ground involvement with characters like you.” Mu Zi Yan only felt that sharing a room with a man in the middle of the night was a bit uncomfortable, and this person, together with this time, had only seen him three times.

Seeing her give her expulsion order so frankly, Chu Ye could not help but find it amusing, and then continued, “Miss Mu, I have a matter here that may be of interest to you.”

“Mr. Chu, explain the reason for your visit.” Mu Zi Yan remained standing, looking straight at him.

“This time, although Marquis Mu has survived the danger, but I know that the Emperor will not be relieved, Miss Mu does not want to let Marquis Mu completely through the crisis” Chu Ye said calmly, and was now looking at Mu Zi Yan with a smile on his face.

Mu Zi Yan lowly laughed and said, “There is no need to bother Mr. Chu with this matter, I think my father also has his own plans, Mr. Chu please, in the future it is still not necessary to meet.”

When Chu Ye saw her say so, he suddenly laughed, “Miss Mu is really turning the other cheek.”

Mu Zi Yan coldly snorted, “I have kept my promise not to kill the Prince, what is agreed upon is also reached by both sides, since you and I have different paths, since we do not seek each other, I am only a generalized friendship with Prince Chu.”

Chu Ye wanted to speak again, but felt that it was useless to say more now, so he also got up and turned around and disappeared.

Mu Zi Yan felt that Chu Ye coming tonight was really a bit strange, was it just to tell her that he had sent the Crown Prince back to the palace in one piece purely as a provocation.

She turned around and lay down on the bed again, but she had no sleep, so she just resumed practicing her internal energy.

At this time, Mu Lingxuan and Zhong Hui were sleeping on the same couch, with a gap between them, but they were both having trouble sleeping.

She rolled over and turned her back to him, her eyes were wide open but she was very awake, she could clearly feel his breath, but also knew that he was beside herself at the moment, this kind of time together is undoubtedly a torture for her, now it’s only one day, so he plans to live with her for the rest of her life like this!

Zhong Hui had no such plans, she didn’t want to spend so much time with Mu Lingxuan, now she just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

However, he was not as good as she wanted, and instead, he tortured her in this way.

Mu Lingxuan opened his eyes, looked at the zenith, suddenly turned around since he gently held her in his arms, Zhong Hui’s entire body suddenly tensed up, then saw his hands from the back wrapped around her, the back of the warm chest, and that faintly lingering on their necks, suddenly she nearly collapsed.

With a sudden roll, she sat up violently, and with her bare feet, she got off the bed and rushed out of the inner room.

Mu Lingxuan lay on the bed unimpressed, the corners of his mouth hooked up in a faint smile, and then he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Zhong Hui stood and paced back and forth in the hall, only feeling upset, she felt that it was a torture for her to stay here for even one more moment, she turned her eyes to stare at the room there, but she was unwilling to go in.

Ling’er heard the rattling, palmed the lamp and went forward, she saw Zhong Hui with a gloomy face, wearing a profane jacket and pants, standing barefoot in the same spot, she hurriedly turned around and took a cloak to put it on for her, “Eldest Young Grandmother, what are you”

Zhong Hui mood more and more irritated, but heard the even breathing sound from the inner room, she is even more angry to gnash her teeth, what makes him can sleep so peacefully, but she has to be tortured, she will be on the body of the cloak pulled off, annoyed ruthlessly stepped on a few times, and then re-entered the inner room, lying on the bed couch, pulling up the brocade quilt cover on the body.

Mu Lingxuan didn’t pay any attention to it, still resting on his own, while Zhong Hui listened to that breathing sound of his and only felt that it was a long ordeal.

The next morning, Mu Lingxuan got up refreshed, on the contrary, Zhong Hui looked a little tired.

Mu Lingxuan is still as usual, gentle and loving to her, not half cold.

After several days of this, Zhong Hui was tortured and nearly collapsed.

She finally couldn’t hold back, and when Mu Lingxuan came close to him again, she turned around and looked at him with a cold gaze, “When you touch me, don’t you think it’s dirty? Mu Lingxuan, I’ll tell you, you’re not my first man, and before that, I’m already not a perfect body.”

She wanted to irritate him, wanted to use it to force him to loathe her so she could let go, it was a matter of a man’s honor.

Mu Lingxuan only froze for a moment, but still held her in his arms, “That was all before, you are my lady now.”

Zhong Hui only felt that this kind of Mu Ling Xuan was too scary, she would rather Mu Ling Xuan point a sword at her and stab her in the chest or not, or fight with her, and then a copy of the letter of repudiation, and then send someone to kill her as well, but he was torturing her in such a gentle way, and she knew that he was treating her the same way he treated her.

Zhong Hui pushed him away and once again rushed out of the inner room, while Mu Lingxuan continued to lie down calmly, and so on and so forth, the days passed tirelessly.

Since the prince was sent back to the palace, because of the injury is too serious, it has been in the Prince’s residence to recuperate, and for the matter of Nanlu, but not a word, the next day, the emperor will be ordered to reward Mu Lingxuan.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day that Mu Zi Yan left for the Divine Doctor’s Gate, and before dawn, Mu Zi Yan bid farewell to Qiao Clan and led Yunxiang and Bi Yun out of the Marquis Mu’s Mansion.

Mu Lingxuan did not go to the State Duke’s residence, but sat in a carriage out of the city, in a mountain pass waiting for Jin Daifu, and at this time, Jin Daifu, has changed a dress, look faintly at Mu Ziyan.

Mu Zi Yan stepped forward and hurriedly saluted, “Apprentice has met Master.”

“Smokey, these two girls are not allowed to go along.” Doctor Jin looked at Mu Zi Yan and said.

“If news comes from outside and I am not informed in time, I am afraid that I am a bit uneasy.” Mu Zi Yan had concerns.

“The Divine Doctor Sect has its own disciples who specialize in collecting information, so you can rest assured.” Dr. Jin said in a low voice, “Now that it’s getting late, you should come with me to hurry.”

“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan was relieved at that moment, turning her eyes to look at Yunxiang and Bi Yun, “And go back, if something happens, report it to mother.”

Yunxiang and Biyun also know that this divine doctor door is very mysterious, although her two as a young lady in the personal maid, but ultimately not the divine doctor door, so the two do not dare to say more, just after the voice, saw her and Jin Daifu left, the two only sighed, and went back to the Mu Hou House.

Inside the Long Pine Courtyard, from Sister hurried into the room, “Old Lady, the Second Master has recovered his life, but how should this matter be covered up?”

The old madam’s eyes narrowed slightly before she said, “Resign and return to the house.”

“If he resigns, then this Marquis’ position is afraid to be” From Sister’s knowledge, the Second Master has always believed that he is the true master of the Mu Marquis Mansion, and if he is allowed to resign and return, this will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to him.

“If he still wants to live, come back.” The old lady’s tone was unkind, her face grim.

“Yes.” From Sister answered in a low voice.

The old madam’s eyes were cold and sunken, staring straight ahead, “Smokey girl, you broke one of my son’s arms, so how can I let it go”

Night, Zhong Hui look tired leaning on the soft couch, did not enter the inner room, only feel now more than a glance at Mu Lingxuan, are a kind of torture, not to mention is to stay in this house head let her feel never suffocated.

Ling’er walked over at this time, seeing her like this, then she attached her ear and muttered, Zhong Hui’s face was slightly stagnant, her eyes flashed a touch of uneasiness and fear to.

After she took a deep breath and stabilized her mind, she finally went to the inner room, and saw Mu Lingxuan taking off his outer robe and did not look at her, but just changed into a comfortable robe by himself.

Zhong Hui hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to gaze at him, “I’ll sleep in the outer room tonight.”

“No.” Mu Lingxuan took a step forward, revealing a gentle smile, his handsome face appeared more and more warm and moist like jade at the moment, his body exuded a warm jade-like atmosphere, looking down at Zhong Hui, “If you are resting in the outer room, I will follow you.”

Zhong Hui finally couldn’t bear it anymore and pointed at Mu Lingxuan and roared, “How long are you going to torture me in the end Mu Lingxuan, I’m telling you, I’m capable of doing anything when I’m pushed to the limit.”

“What does the lady want to do” Mu Lingxuan, however, was not angry or annoyed, but asked calmly.

Zhong Hui snorted coldly, “You’re not the only one with blood on my hands.”

When Mu Lingxuan heard these words, obviously his eyes darkened, but it was only for an instant, then he went forward to carry her horizontally, turned around and placed her on the bed, then he bullied himself up, lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Just like the gentle and bone-crushing kiss like in the old days, but in the end, it turned into a nibble, Zhong Hui only felt that she was about to be driven crazy by Mu Lingxuan, and the slightest bit of pain came from her lips, making her shudder, but she still opened her eyes wide and stared at him angrily.

Until they were panting lowly to each other, he rolled over and lay beside her, taking her gently into his arms, “Rest early, ma’am.”

Zhong Hui didn’t know how to resist for a moment, her cheek was pressed against his chest, and through that material, she could clearly hear his heartbeat, she woke up with a start, got up and gazed at him, and for some reason, suddenly went crazy and pounded him.

Mu Lingxuan lay still and allowed her to do so, until finally, her hair was scattered and she fell to the ground with a bleak look on her face.

She suddenly pulled the dagger from the head of the cabinet she had drawn aside and instantly stabbed herself in the chest.

Mu Lingxuan raised his hand and threw the embroidered pillow over, knocking her dagger down, “clang”, the sound was like a silent sigh, she stared at Mu Lingxuan woodenly, still unable to suppress her wild laughter.

Jong-hye, Jong-hye, this is retribution!

She suddenly turned around and flew away from the window with a single leap, Mu Lingxuan just said in a deep voice, “Follow her, and if you are looking for it, bring her back.”

“Yes.” A low voice came from the shadows.

Mu Lingxuan from the bed down, walked to the dresser, the copper mirror reflects his current look, his eyes are calm and terrible, his heart is ultimately dead

Zhong Hui flew out, directly crossed out of the Mu Hou Mansion, and did not know how far to run, which stopped, kneeling on the ground, let go of the sound of crying and howling.

At that moment, hearing a sound of footsteps, she turned her eyes to see Zhong Xuan standing in front of her.

She collected her rising anger and slowly got up to look at her, “What are you doing here”

“But I just wanted to see big sister go crazy.” Zhong Xuan laughed lowly, “It seems that big sister has moved on after all, otherwise, how could she tolerate Shizi Mu tormenting herself in this way”

Zhong Hui coldly said, “I don’t need you to care about my business.”

“Since I don’t need to care, however, big sister don’t forget, your purpose in the Marquis Mu, I don’t want to see big sister die in the Marquis Mu.” Zhong Xuan slightly stepped forward, that brightly colored face was coated with a layer of ruthlessness, “Pawns are useless, the end result is death, Marquis Zhong never raises useless people.”

Zhong Hui took a step backward vigilantly, then she saw Zhong Xuan take out a dagger from her sleeve and put it against her waist, with a gentle stab, blood soaked her blasphemous clothes, she lifted her eyes and looked coldly at Zhong Xuan, she only felt that death was approaching gradually, she hastily lifted her hand and swatted Zhong Xuan away, turning around to leave in a hurry, no, she couldn’t die, she absolutely couldn’t die like this.
