After Mo Jinglei heard that Ruan Rou had been brought here, he rode his horse to visit, and Mo Qingfeng went to Ruan Rou's room to ask for permission, "Mother, General Mo is in the front hall, would you like to meet him?" The reason why he said he wanted Mo Jinglei to come visit him more was because he wanted Mo Jinglei to experience great grief in his heart when he saw his crazy mother, and so he could vent the anger he had felt over the years. But now that his mother's illness had been cured, Mo Qingfeng did not want her to see that person again.

"General Mo, it has been more than ten years since we last met." Ruan Rou, who was originally reading a Legend, was startled when she heard this. Back then, she had a jade-like countenance and now, her hair was white. It was likely that she was no longer the same young man whom she had befriended!

"If mother doesn't want to see him, I'll go and get rid of her." Mo Qingfeng guessed that perhaps Ruan Rou still remembered the misunderstanding from back then, and it was only natural for her not to see him.

"Forget about it. After so many years have passed, the only thing left between us is the friendship that we can still talk about." Ruan Rou stood up. Mo Qingfeng put on a cloak for her, and the two of them walked towards the front hall.

Mo Jinglei was absent-minded as he held a cup of tea given by a servant and kept looking towards the door. Ruan Rou crossed the threshold and he suddenly stood up. He watched as Mo Qingfeng helped her walk to the main seat and sit down. Ruan Rou raised her head and looked at Mo Jinglei who was a little nervous. She smiled gently, "General Mo, please sit! I don't want people to say I'm taking my time with my guests. "

Mo Qingfeng glanced at Mo Jinglei before he bent down and whispered, "Qingfeng, leave first. If there's anything else, call Qing He over." Seeing Ruan Rou nod, he then cupped his hands towards Mo Jinglei and quickly walked out.

"Have you been well all these years?" Mo Jinglei came back to his senses and greeted with difficulty.

"It doesn't matter if it's good or bad. It's just a fleeting moment, nothing more." In fact, she had been out of control for most of the past ten years, rarely waking up. Now that she had recovered, her mind became blurry, as if she had traveled through more than ten years of time in the blink of an eye.

"I know, you must have suffered a lot." Mo Jinglei's heart twitched in pain. He tried to find that once charming and lovely little wife from this calm and gentle woman, but he failed. Time was the most powerful weapon, it could completely transform a person into another appearance.

"The days of trouble have already passed. I don't remember." Ruan Rou was not used to Mo Jinglei's current appearance. In her memory, he was a straightforward martial artist who did not know how to appreciate favors. When did he learn to talk in such a roundabout way?

"That's right, Qingfeng is very young these days, so naturally, you don't have to go through all the hardships of the past." Mo Jinglei thought that Ruan Rou said the bitter days were when the mother and son were together. He never thought that Ruan Rou's family could be considered an aristocratic family. Even if she and her husband left home, how could she let her daughter suffer to the point of being poor.

Ruan Rou did not want to tell her ex-husband that she had been suffering from a mental illness for many years, and could not stand his slow pace of speech either. She directly asked, "You came this time to discuss something with me."

"You're too worried. I just want to see if you are doing well or not. If not, then —"

"So what if it's not good?" Ruan Rou casually interrupted Mo Jinglei, "You and I have already parted ways. Even if I'm not doing well, it has nothing to do with you."

Mo Jinglei didn't expect Ruan Rou to say something like that. He was shocked and then sighed, "Are you still mad at me?"

"General Mo thinks too much. Back then, I was the one who asked for peace and separation, so I didn't dare to say a word of resentment towards General Mo."

Mo Qingfeng rode on his cloud to Li Hui's house, and hoped that Li Hui would ask Linghu Jie to come and take care of his mother. He asked Li Hui to step in, and Li Hui owed Linghu Jie a favor because he did not know the address of Linghu Jie. The relationship between the two of them should change a little bit from this.

By the time Mo Qingfeng drank the third cup of tea, Linghu Jie had just arrived. Mo Qingfeng clearly stated his intentions, but Linghu Jie was unwilling. Li Hui had no choice but to drop his attitude and say a few good words.

"Since it's the general who has personally stepped in, if Jie Duo doesn't accept it, it seems that he is deliberately making things difficult for us." Linghu Jie looked at Li Hui obliquely with a smile on his face, and the sight made him even more furious. She had long seen that Li Hui was especially concerned about Mo Qingfeng, and did not know that the friendship between these two men was truly worthy of him giving in to the general?

The three of them rode to the Mo Mansion. Ruan Rou and Mo Jinglei were chatting casually while Ruan Rou sent Mo Jinglei away without any shame. Ruan Rou also didn't have the nerve to drive them away.

"Mom, I'm back." Mo Qingfeng led the way, and the three of them entered the lounge. Ruan Rou and Mo Jinglei stood up, and the five of them greeted each other. Li Hui and Mo Jinglei were surprised to see each other, but they did not react.

"Mom, this is Miss Linghu. She has great medical skills, I've invited her to come and take your pulse." Mo Qingfeng introduced.

"Pulse? Ruan Niang, are you not feeling well? Why aren't you talking? Can I ask the imperial physician to treat you? " Mo Jinglei was shocked, Mo Qingfeng and Ruan Rou were speechless. They looked at each other and decided to ignore him.

On the other hand, Mo Qingfeng was not worried. He knew that his mother's illness was cured by Grandmaster Yun Chen, that Grandmaster Yun Chen's medical skill was brilliant, and that his inner strength was profound. Everyone knew that he had invited Linghu Jie over just in case.

While Linghu Jie was checking his pulse, Li Hui and Mo Qingfeng were chatting on the side. Li Hui glanced at Mo Jinglei and asked, "Last time at His Majesty's birthday banquet, I didn't dare to ask you too much, your father is actually General Mo? This way, you will be the leader of the family. "I was still thinking, why would someone like you, a wild crane, try to snatch away the top scorer of the Losers' Association? So that's how it is."

Mo Qingfeng laughed bitterly, "I can't do it." This was the rule of the Mo Clan. Descendants had to obtain a good name in order to enter the sect, otherwise, the Mo Clan wouldn't recognise them. Especially since his mother had already parted ways with the Mo Clan before giving birth to him, his identity naturally looked suspicious to the Mo Clan.

Li Hui nodded his head: "I've long heard that the Mo Clan is loyal, their rules are strict, and their reputation is well-deserved."

Mo Qingfeng declined to comment. How did the Mo Clan have anything to do with him? Moreover, if it wasn't for their bullshit rules, how could he have led such a tragic life in his youth?

Mo Jinglei was not deaf, and even with his anxious illness, he could still hear their conversation. His face was dark and pale.

On the other hand, Linghu Zuodong had already finished checking Ruan Rou's pulse. He took out his brush and started writing, "Although Grandmaster Yun Chen has already roughly dispelled the poison in your body, Shao Lin's inner strength is too strong and it has caused some damage to your body. This recipe of mine you can use continuously, it has some effect on prolonging your lifespan and body nourishing."

Mo Qingfeng, who was at the side, did not pay much attention to anything else. He only heard the word 'poison', and frowned as he asked, "Poison? You mean, when my mother was sick, she was poisoned? "

"That's right. Moreover, this poison is very special and the medicines used are also very precious. It wouldn't be easy for ordinary people to collect all of it, and the person who poisoned it would be extremely wealthy." Linghu Jie nodded.

"Mother, why didn't you tell me that you were poisoned?" Mo Qingfeng's face was filled with rage, "Who did this? Mother, you definitely know the person who poisoned the poison, right? "

Ruan Rou patted Mo Qingfeng's hands, "If mother doesn't tell you, it's because I don't want you to pursue the matter. They have overflowing authority, what can a mere guard like you do to them?"
