All of the followers were searching for Wang Mu in secret. Just as Wang Mu was about to return to the yard, he circled around to the back of the house and silently lay on the roof, watching everyone silently.
He had only intended for Cheng Yuan to be taught a lesson and not be a burden to the young master, but he had never expected things to turn out like this.
The Old Master was furious!
Lord Cheng Feng was also furious!
This matter was also made known to the two branch Patriarchs.
What should he do now? Looking at Cheng Yu in the yard, Wang Mu felt conflicted. He wanted to go down and confess his mistake to Cheng Yu, but he was afraid of Cheng Yu's scoldings. More importantly, he was afraid that his Young Master would kick him out.
Cheng Yu was no longer in the mood to admire the moon and flowers, and felt irritated after entering the house, so she simply stayed in the courtyard with her hands around her waist, looking at the clear night sky, while her mind wandered back to a long time ago.
A quarter of an hour passed. Two hours passed, and Cheng Yu still hadn't moved.
Wang Mu also did not dare to move on the rooftop, for fear of being discovered by Cheng Yu if he made a sound. However, the more he did not want to be exposed, the more the heavens would not listen to his wishes.
In the middle of summer, there were a lot of mosquitoes and insects. In the small jade courtyard beside the dense forest, countless mosquitoes found Wang Mu's figure in the air. They all cried out as they flew to his body and started sucking blood.
It was good that the time was short. As time passed, Wang Mu couldn't hold on any longer. He couldn't help but scratch his head repeatedly. Every time he scratched and scratched, it would inevitably affect one or two tiles.
Creak Creak Creak * The sound was quite eye-catching in the silent night.
Cheng Yu turned his head and looked over.
Wang Mu was so scared that he held his breath, and his itching hands froze.
Unfortunately, this group of mosquitoes probably felt that enjoying such a feast alone wasn't enough, so they called for their friends and a group of friends, all of which landed on Wang Mu's body.
Wang Mu couldn't help but feel itchy all over his body. He sat up and tried his best to grab at his surroundings.
When Cheng Yu heard the sound coming from the rooftop, he knew who it was without even thinking. He said with a dark face, "Come down, how long do you want to hide on the rooftop?"
Wang Mu disappointedly jumped down and walked over to Cheng Yu with a dejected look. He then shouted, "Young Master!"
Staring at him coldly, Cheng Yu sarcastically said, "You still know how to be afraid?"
He threw his sleeves and walked toward the house. "Come in with me!"
Wang Mu smiled wryly in his heart. The seven foot tall man was like a turtle that had its head lowered as he walked in with small steps.
As soon as he entered the room, he kneeled down and said in a very frank tone, "Young Master, I was wrong!"
The candles in the room were lit, and it was only then that Cheng Yu could see that Wang Mu's body was covered in red bumps from being bitten by mosquitoes.
He should have stayed on the roof for a long time, or he wouldn't have been bitten like this.
After all, they had grown up together. Cheng Yu's anger could not help but somewhat dissipate.
"Why are you doing this?" Cheng Yu stared at his shadow swaying in the candle flame.
Wang Mu knew what Cheng Yu meant. After a moment of silence, he said in a hoarse voice, "Young Master, if I tell you that I did all this for you, would you believe me?"
Now that things had turned out like this, the young master's father had always been strict with the young master, so he must have been reprimanded before.
Even if the young master was good-natured, after suffering such grievances for no reason, he would definitely think that he had some ulterior motive.
As he thought of this, he felt sad in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu said without any hesitation, "I believe you."
Wang Mu suddenly raised his head and opened his mouth. His eyes were brimming with excitement as he shouted, "Young Master!"
Cheng Yu turned around and refused to look at him, "I believe you won't harm me, but one yard is one yard, why on earth did you do this?"
Kneeling on the ground for a few steps, Wang Mu took a deep breath, no longer hiding his thoughts. "Young Master, I've been an orphan since I was young. It's all thanks to you picking me up from the streets that I was able to survive. "So in my heart, young master is my savior, and even more so, my relative …"
Wang Mu revealed his thoughts as tears welled up in his eyes. "I only hope that Young Master can live a peaceful life, but Young Master Yuan has caused countless disasters since he was young. He has to help him deal with it and even take the blame for him."
At this point, Wang Mu's face and voice revealed a clear hatred, "Ever since Young Master took over the clan's property, Young Master Yuan has become even more unscrupulous. This subordinate has seen for himself that Young Master Yuan is not worthy of being Young Master Yuan.
Cheng Yu listened silently. It had been ten years, and during these ten years, he had endured everything as far as he could. He was ready to deal with this mess for him at any time. No matter how big of a disaster Cheng Yuan caused or how difficult it was to deal with, he had to calm him down.
Because his grandfather would only care if Cheng Yuan was wronged or not.
His father only cared about repaying what he owed.
No one had ever asked him whether he was tired or not. Even if it was just a sentence.
Since young, there had not been a single person.
Since childhood he had to force himself to mature. He had no other choice.
Wang Mu was right about one thing today, and that was that he was very tired of living. He turned himself into a humble gentleman in front of everyone, and no matter how sad he was, he didn't dare to leave a single tear. Even if his anger was about to burn him down, he had to treat him gently.
With each passing year, how could he not be tired? He was alone.
Cheng Yu's eyes were burning hot. The liquid that was rolling in his eyes seemed as if it would flow out at any moment along with his sadness.
"Young master, you are not a scapegoat. Why must you bear all of Young Master Yuan's sins?" Wang Mu knelt behind Cheng Yu and looked up at the God in his heart.
Cheng Yu was still standing with her back to him, not reacting at all.
Wang Mu's eyes were filled with grief as he continued to speak, "A scourge like Young Master Yuan should have been driven out of his family sooner. If not, Young Master, you would have been implicated by him and lost your life sooner or later!"
"Shut up!" Cheng Yu turned around, his eyes red.
"Young master!" Wang Mu saw that Cheng Yu finally responded, but he still wanted to shut himself up. His heart was very sad, and he was very excited, so he asked: "I really don't understand, why do you want to make yourself live so tiredly? Why do you always have to shoulder everything for Master Yuan? "
Wang Mu's tone was quick and forceful, completely ignoring the difference in status between a master and his servant.
"Because …" Cheng Yu looked at Wang Mu. His great grief almost made him tell everything that had happened all those years ago. However, at the last moment, his reason had stopped him.
