Mu Yu Ting was stunned. Was there something urgent that Yu Qing Ye needed for her to go over at this time? But when she thought about it, she did not touch her head.
"Miss, then should we go or not?" The Blue Luan anxiously pulled on Mu Qiantang's sleeve with an anxious expression on its face.
Mu Yu Ting comforted her by patting her hand, signalling for her not to panic. "Mother just asked me to come over, and she won't kill me. Why are you so nervous?"
With that, she stood up and followed the servant girl to Yu Qing's room.
Yu Qing Ye was brewing tea in his room. The fragrance of the tea was blended with the fragrance of the sandalwood that was being emitted from the incense burner. It was extremely soothing and calming.
"Qiantang, you're here." Yu Qingye heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the house. He raised his eyes to look at Mu Luting. A hint of nervousness flashed through her eyes.
Mu Yuting nodded. Under Yu Qing Wan's instructions, she sat down on the table opposite her. "Mother, I heard that you call me 'daughter'."
Yu Qing Wan nodded, and completed the last step of his task. She handed a cup of tea to Mu Yu Ting, "Bai Ting, Chen Bi may be scheming, but because she has someone backing her, she cannot be easily touched."
Yu Qingye was not an idiot. Ever since she was young, she had lived in an environment of scheming and scheming. There were some things she had already mastered to the level of the Fiery Eyes of Truth.
Jiang Chen had wanted to frame Mu Qiushan time and time again, but his plan had failed time and time again. Instead, he had cheated her. Behind all of this, it was definitely not a coincidence. There had to be Mu Lutong involved in all of this.
Mother understands what you're thinking, but there are some people you hate to the bone, and you have to be careful of them. Do you know that if you don't, it will have a negative impact on yourself?
Yu Qingyan looked over at Mu Qiushan, a little nervous in her heart. She only wanted to use her identity as someone who had experienced many things to point out Mu Luting's intentions, but she was afraid that she would misunderstand his good intentions, so she once again stiffened the relationship between the two that had just eased up.
Ever since Mu Yu Ting heard Jiang Chen's name, she knew that it was because of recent events that called her over, causing her heart to sink.
However, hearing Yu Qingcheng's last sentence, she let out a sigh of relief. "Mother, your daughter naturally understands your intentions."
Mu Yu Ting held onto Yu Qingniang's hand and looked into her eyes. She said seriously, "Your daughter will not easily do these things. Every decision is definitely the result of careful deliberation and will not anger her."
"It's best if you understand Mother's intentions." Yu Qingye saw that Mu Yuting didn't have any expression of disgust, and relaxed a bit. "Mother was afraid that you would misunderstand mother's words."
"How could that be? Mom is the best person for your daughter, so how could your daughter misunderstand Mom's words and distance herself from you?" Mu Yu Ting chuckled, hiding the bitterness in her heart.
In this life, she would never make the mistakes from her previous life again.
Yu Qingye looked at Mu Yuting's face and felt gratified from the bottom of his heart. It just so happened that dinner was approaching, so she pulled Mu Yuting to eat before letting her go back.
Tonight was a beautiful night, with stars twinkling in the dark sky. The cool breeze blew gently, and the scorching day disappeared.
Mu Yuting and the Blue Luan strolled around the garden. By the time she had returned to her courtyard, it was already late.
As soon as Mu Yu Ting opened the door, her body froze. He saw Xiao Chen sitting in her room, leisurely drinking tea. Noticing Mu Qiushan's gaze, the corner of his mouth widened into a smile.
"Miss, why are you standing at the door and not entering?" The Blue Luan looked at Mu Yu Ting with a puzzled expression.
Mu Yu Ting turned around and closed the door again. She blocked herself in front of the door, trying her best to maintain her normal expression. "Blue Luan, you should rest on your own. I won't trouble you with the rest of the matters."
The Blue Luan was startled. Originally, she and the young lady were talking and laughing, so why did they suddenly want to chase her away?
Mu Yu Ting didn't wait for the Blue Luan to ask before she squeezed into the room and locked her outside.
The Blue Luan looked at the door that was tightly shut in front of her. It was on the verge of tears.
Mu Yu Ting took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Cheng, who was sitting in front of her. Seeing him so carefree without the guilt of trespassing in someone else's room in the middle of the night, the veins on Mu Qiuting's forehead immediately twitched.
"Your Royal Highness, I wonder what your intention is for you to visit us so late at night in such a strange manner?"
Xiao Chen did not pay any attention to Mu Tingting's mocking words. He was just fiddling with the cup in his hand. "I came here today because I have something to discuss with Miss Mu."
Finished speaking, he got up and approached Mu Qiuting, pressing her against the door. He didn't continue speaking, but his gaze was fixated on Mu Yuting's face.
Mu Qiuting felt somewhat uncomfortable under his gaze. "Your Highness, you need to state something in this manner before you can discuss it with me."
Xiao Chen reached out his hand and placed it on Mu Qiantang's neck, touching her skin with his slightly cold fingers. Such a delicate touch made the scene from last time reappear in his mind, giving him the urge to try again.
Before Mu Yu Ting could react, Xiao Chen approached her and bit her neck. This time his movements were extremely slow, not as urgent as the last time, as if he was carefully tasting it.
Mu Yu Ting's nerves had tensed up from the start. She felt blood seeping out from her neck, and her legs gradually began to feel weak. She subconsciously wanted to struggle, so she raised her legs to kick Xiao Chen's lower body.
Although Xiao Chen did not expect Mu Qiushan to make such a move, he still dodged it agilely.
The dark red blood at the corner of his mouth was exceptionally eye-catching. When combined with the faint smell of blood, it added to his unique aura.
"Do you know what would happen if you were to hit it with your foot?" Xiao Cheng didn't get annoyed, but looked at Mu Lutong with interest.
Mu Yu Ting still had a lingering fear in her heart. She no longer cared about his identity and glared at him. She snappily said, "Isn't that because of the stupid thing you did just now, your highness?"
Xiao Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled, "This is to repay the debt you owe me before."
Mu Yuting was about to refute him when she heard someone knocking on the door. An anxious voice came from the Blue Luan, "Miss, why is there such a big commotion in the room? Are you okay? "
Immediately after, hurried footsteps sounded out, as if a group of people were rushing towards them.
Xiao Shan naturally heard this and glanced in the direction of the door. "Forget it, I'll tell you about it in the future. There's still some time between the two of us."
He then flipped out of the open window and disappeared without a trace.
Not long after Xiao Chen left, the servants at the entrance rushed in. They anxiously looked inside, but they didn't see anyone suspicious.
