Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The evening sky was rather mesmerizing as the sunset glow colored half the sky and the cool breeze was faint.
When Mu Lings.h.i.+ left Bamboo Teahouse, she was met with the sunset.
She did not ask Ah Mo to come with her today. She only brought her bodyguard, Ah Quan, and of course, the chauffeur. Things seem to be quite busy at the company, and Ah Mo had rushed over quite early in the morning.
“Miss Lings.h.i.+…”
When he saw Mu Lings.h.i.+ walking over, Ah Quan who had been waiting outside went up to her.
“Let’s talk a walk. I want some quiet time,” Mu Lings.h.i.+ said and then walked ahead.
Ah Quan gave the chauffeur a word before following her. After that, the chauffeur drove slowly and followed them from behind.
“Miss Lings.h.i.+, it’s not that early anymore. How about we get home earlier? Otherwise, Bro Mo will be worried,” Ah Quan advised, “Earlier, he called.”
“It’s fine. It’s still early. You don’t have to tell Grandfather about me coming over today. I don’t want him to worry.”
“Is Mr. Gu still inside?” Ah Quan asked.
Mu Lings.h.i.+ nodded and sighed sorrowfully, “Ah Quan, why do you think humans are so complicated? He clearly wants to use Brother’s authority, but now he’s making himself sound like a saint. Why would I have such a father?”
“Miss Lings.h.i.+, don’t feel troubled by this. Actually, Master and Bro Mo knew it right from the start. You just need to go with your heart. I think you already have an answer. Letting Doris or Gu Lingsha get everything doesn’t benefit us. Besides, there’s also Qi Feng eyeing covetously. To be honest, Miss Lings.h.i.+…” Ah Quan spoke, and then suddenly paused as he looked to Mu Lings.h.i.+ who slowly stopped and glanced at him too.
“If it were me, I’d use these relations.h.i.+ps and try to help Master with his burden.”
When Ah Quan said this, Mu Lings.h.i.+ instantly understood what he meant. She froze for a while and then forced a smile. “You’re right. All along, it’s always been Brother who’s protected us while we…Sometimes, I really don’t know what’s the point of all these so-called moral intensities. If it helps everyone, it’s nothing for me to sacrifice a little.”
“I’m sorry, Miss Lings.h.i.+. That’s not what I meant either…” Ah Quan explained uneasily.
As an observer from the sidelines, he only felt that Mu Yuchen carried too much burden. He was worn out from holding it all up while some things could clearly be…
“No need to explain. I understand. I understand it all. I’ll give it some thought…”
Mu Lings.h.i.+ breathed in and did not say anything more before she continued walking ahead.
The setting sun dragged out her shadow, and it looked quite lonely…
…
They had barely rested when the university reopened again. Xi Mushan and Shen Wenna returned to the university on the second day and were busy for the entire day. It was only in the evening that they could catch their breath and recall the promise they made before, so the husband and wife made their way to the sanatorium together.
Yue Lingsi was in a ward alone. Xi Xinyi had even hired a nurse to take care of her.
When Xi Mushan and Shen Wenna went over, Yue Lings.h.i.+ had just left her ward as the nurse had wheeled her out for a walk.
After that, the husband and wife found Yue Lingsi at the pavilion by the lake in the garden.
Yue Lingsi was in a bad state indeed. She was all bloated, and her eyes were dim without any light. Appearing quite stiff, it was hard for her to move her limbs, so she could only sit in the wheelchair and be wheeled by the nurse.
The sunset engulfed the world while the lake was gleaming with reflections of the sun. It was quite a contented sight to behold.
When she saw Xi Mushan suddenly appear before her, Yue Lings.h.i.+ was overjoyed, but when she noticed Shen Wenna beside him, the joy left her face.
“You came together!”
Yue Lingsi’s dull eyes could not help but flash with a cold light as she glared at Shen Wenna!
Xi Mushan, won’t you even give me a chance to be with you alone? Or are you afraid that this witch will misunderstand?
Yue Lingsi’s hatred for Shen Wenna did not fade. She had stayed there for so long in her wretched state that it made her even colder and twisted. Even though she knew it was her fault from before, she still hated Shen Wenna.
“Didn’t you say you wanted to talk? What’s wrong with sitting down together to talk?” Shen Wenna’s cold voice came through as she walked over and slowly sat down on a stone bench.
“Xinyi b.u.mped into Xiaye and told us about you. Ah Chen and Xiaye mobilized us. Its time for this issue between us to be concluded,” Xi Mushan said in a low voice. His stern gaze looked at the nurse behind Yue Lingsi, who looked at the latter for instructions. When she got the hint from Yue Lingsi, she retreated.
“It’s been more than 20 years. Yue Lingsi, you didn’t think this day would come, did you?”
Shen Wenna’s voice did not hide her hint of delight and apathy while she looked at Yue Lingsi with a pitiful gaze just as how she had looked at her with an expression that said there was no use crying over spilled milk—
“I remember that 20 years ago, I had such a miserable day too. When that happened, I looked forward to the day that you, Yue Lingsi, to experience this, and that you’d do worse than me.”
“Evil witch!”
“Shut up!”
Yue Lingsi had just cursed when Xi Mushan frowned and shouted.
“See? Just like that! Xi Mushan, you’ve always been like that! Every time Shen Wenna’s mentioned, you treat me like this! I was still Madam Xi for over 20 years. Why do you have to be so cruel to me? You didn’t even bother touching me!”
Yue Lingsi laughed with a semblance of loneliness. “If you were willing to be nicer to me, we wouldn’t all be like this right now. You know that I love you to your bones, yet you wouldn’t forget Shen Wenna. Do you know how unfair that was to me? I endured all sorts of pain and suffering for you, but you never knew and you’d never be moved. I lost in this lifetime. I’ve lost thoroughly. You won, Shen Wenna…”
“Unfair? What’s fair? When you came in as the third party, why didn’t you think of fairness?” Shen Wenna sneered. She lowered her gaze and laughed. “Nothing done forcibly turns out good. With the three of us here, let’s just clear things up. Let’s not have any more doubts left so that the children can stop worrying.”
Yue Lingsi thought about it, bit her lip, and then looked up at Xi Mushan with a deep gaze, as she asked, “Xi Mushan, have you ever liked me? Even just a little? Or were you ever moved?”
