The two of them followed their master and studied on the mountain. Towards men, Cao Yue had almost only met her master and Ning Yuan before, so she had always thought that Ning Yuan was the best man in the world until Meng Jiu had appeared.
Cao Yue had never seen such a handsome man, yet he spoke such sweet words and was quickly captured.
When Ning Yuan was unaware, the two of them had become one, and Cao Yue was even pregnant with Meng Jiu's child.
The two of them knelt in front of Ning Yuan, begging for his permission.
At that time, Ning Yuan was in extreme pain. He originally wanted to kill this adulterous couple, but because he truly loved Cao Yue, he couldn't do it.
However, Meng Jiu did not treat Cao Yue sincerely, he approached Cao Yue only to steal the treasure of Ning Yuan's sect, the [Exquisite Scripture].
After Cao Yue left with Meng Jiu, without the true meaning as a foundation and the value of using him, the outcome naturally wasn't going to be good.
However, in just two years, Meng Jiu had quickly moved her feelings and only now, after experiencing so much humiliation and mistreatment, did she think that Ning Yuan was the best to her. Thus, she gave up her identity as Meng Jiu and his wife and wanted to return to Ning Yuan's side.
But at this time, Ning Yuan had already walked out of the shadow of Cao Yue with the help of another kind woman, and fell in love again.
Ning Yuan was unwilling to be together with Cao Yue.
Not only did he steal Ning Yuan and his wife's child, he had also used a scheme to trick Ning Yuan's wife out of the house and cruelly kill her.
Ning Yuan hated Cao Yue to the core. He went forward to seek revenge and mistakenly fell into Cao Yue's trap. Cao Yue didn't hurt him, but trapped him in his own territory, wanting him and her to continue their fates.
If it was already like this, how could Ning Yuan fall in love with Cao Yue. Her persistence would only make him hate her even more.
When Meng Jiu found out that Cao Yue and Ning Yuan were "together", he was furious and came to cause a ruckus. Since he couldn't beat her, if Cao Yue wanted to die together with Ning Yuan, she had helped Ning Yuan block the fatal injury and fainted. Therefore, Meng Jiu didn't kill Ning Yuan. He abandoned Ning Yuan at the bottom of the cliff and poisoned him with the "Noon Sunset" poison. He wanted Ning Yuan to live a life that was worse than death.
From then on, Ning Yuan hated Cao Yue even more, but Cao Yue did not mind. In the end, unable to bear seeing his hateful gaze, she took Meng Jiu's son and left to find a doctor.
He had lived such a difficult life, his heart was filled with pain and he had wanted to die a long time ago, but he wanted to kill Cao Yue before he died.
Killing Cao Yue was the only hope he had to survive.
In the months that followed, he finally saw her again. She had become very stiff and a little awkward.
She said that she found the person who cured him and brought him to meet Chen Mu Mu.
Unfortunately, Chen Mu said that the person who answered the bell had to be someone else, and he was poisoned. He had to find Meng Jiu in order to get the antidote.
Cao Yue brought him to Meng Jiu.
How could Meng Jiu, who was such a petty person, tolerate the two of them betraying him?
Under Meng Jiu's test, Cao Yue died with ten thousand arrows piercing her heart, Ning Yuan ate the half pellet that she used her life for, and after killing Meng Jiu, she arrived at Chen Mu Mu Mu's place.
"She wants me to live." Ning Yuan said with a complicated look in his eyes.
With regards to Cao Yue, he should also be unable to let go of this matter as well.
"Actually, you have always loved her, right?" Chen Mu Mu sighed.
Towards a woman like Cao Yue, she didn't even know what to say.
When Ning Yuan wholeheartedly loved her, she didn't treasure him, but had unwittingly shifted her love away. After Ning Yuan fell in love with another person, got married and gave birth to a child, she was abandoned. Only then did she know how precious her ex-husband was.
So she came back, broke the relationship between her ex-husband and his wife, stole their child, and killed their ex-husband's wife.
Not to mention Ning Yuan, even to the outsider's ears, she felt that this woman had a vicious heart. How blind must a man be to fall in love with her?
So Ning Yuan didn't fall in love with her, and Ning Yuan hated her to death.
However, she had done a lot of things for Ning Yuan. She always said that the process wasn't important, and the result was the correct solution, but most of the time, the most touching thing was the process.
She helped Ning Yuan sell off his family's wealth, helped Ning Yuan in the business of abducting and selling women, searched for medical treatment everywhere, and helped Ning Yuan … Go to hell.
After all, she had loved and hated him. Seeing her pay so much, she felt that it was impossible for her to not have the slightest fluctuation.
Especially when she went to ask Meng Jiu for the antidote, she encountered all sorts of troubles, and her heart was pierced by thousands of arrows to death.
She thought, at that time, Ning Yuan's heart was shaken. Even though he had always wished for her death, the way she died caused him to be unable to forget about her for the rest of his life.
Cao Yue was not a good woman, and in fact, she was not a good person. That must be true.
No matter what kind of person Cao Yue was, if she died, the love and hatred between them would vanish like smoke in the wind.
"I did." Regarding Chen Mu Mu Mu's question, Ning Yuan only answered it like that.
I loved, but I loved.
After that, hatred filled his heart. Even if he was moved at the last moment, he would only love and be shocked.
Love like the wind, love like the smoke, went away, will not come back.
Since Ning Yuan was already relieved, Chen Mu did not want to dig into his wound and asked: "That Xiao Mao, is it your son or Meng Jiu's son?"
Ning Yuan's body stiffened.
Chen Mu Mu Mu rubbed his nose. He didn't blame her, so who told him to tell a story?
Cao Yue got pregnant for Meng Jiu, and Cao Yue also stole his and his wife's children.
However, she should be Ning Yuan's child.
If it was his own son, how could he bear to have impurities appear in his clean eyes? How could he bear to have him colluding with her.
After all, she was still such a young child.
Furthermore, Ning Yuan didn't seem like such a kind and gentle man. If this child belonged to Cao Yue and Cao Yue, he wouldn't even bother to bring him.
Ning Yuan was silent for a moment, then said: "It's my son."
Ning Yuan's silence caused Chen Mu to be astonished. She pursed her lips, "Since he is your son, why are you hesitating?"
Was it really that difficult to acknowledge one's own flesh and blood?
"It's not hesitation, it's …" Ning Yuan paused for a moment, a lonely feeling turning up between his brows, "We have been separated for too long, even if it's our flesh and blood, there's still a gap in their hearts. And when he saw his mother's tragic death, he naturally felt resentment towards me. "
"That's true." Chen Mu Mu patted her head and did not continue asking. For other people's private matters, she could just satisfy her heart of gossip a little. If she talked too much, Ning Yuan would probably go crazy.
"Then what are your plans after this? You won't be seeking death, right?"
"If I truly wish to die, then why would I come to you to ask for medicine?" Ning Yuan said.
Chen Mu choked, then looked at Ning Yuan with a smile that was not a smile: "Then guess, today's illness, am I going to look, or not?"
"You will." Ning Yuan said without the slightest hesitation.
Chen Mu Mu was once again choked with emotion. "You are the worm in my heart. How do you know that I will definitely treat you?"
"If you didn't read it, you wouldn't have asked me about the story between Cao Yue and I." Ning Yuan looked at her deeply and said.
I'm going. Do I have to help if I want to listen to a story?
Chen Mu Mu rolled her eyes: "I've told Cao Yue a long time ago that it would be difficult for a woman to cook a meal without rice, and the bell must ring. Without the medicine, I have no way to cure the poison in the sun at noon."
Although Ning Yuan's confidence made her a little unhappy, in truth, after hearing the story between him and Cao Yue, she was really willing to treat Ning Yuan's illness.
She did not care about what kind of person Cao Yue was, but Cao Yue had helped her a lot with the hundred silver, and with Ning Yuan being forced into such a miserable state, she would just treat it as a rare chance for her to show some mercy, since it was nothing more than a small effort.
There was a reason, and there was a reason to follow a family. There must be a reason for doing so, and she didn't want to continue pestering this family in the future.
That brat called Xiao Mao, she was still confused.
"I've brought it." Ning Yuan took out a medicinal herb from his bag with a "I knew you would say that" expression.
Chen Mu was silent for a moment, then picked up the medicine, took Ning Yuan's pulse, examined his body, and said: "Your antidote is not easy, it will take half a month to be completed, and you will need to add in a few other medicinal ingredients to help, it would take a lot of effort and damage your wealth, tell me, what do you think I should do?"
Ning Yuan cast a glance at her: "I don't have any money."
She came to see a doctor without money, did she think that she was in a Bodhisattva Temple!?
Chen Mu Mu's face darkened for a second. "Great Hero Ning, although I'm not a bad person, but I'm a businessman. I'm very touched by your story, but I still won't do anything that would lose money."
That is to say, if you want to see a doctor, you have to get a medical fee.
She was like an iron rooster, paying for the patient without even thinking about it.
Ning Yuan looked at her expression that was filled with "I am the most mischievous", and fell silent, then asked: "What are you going to do about it?"
"Not what I want, but what you want." After talking for so long, her mouth was dry. She poured a cup of tea and moistened her lips, "Friendship is friendship, business is business, if you want to take something from me, you have to use something else to exchange. If you don't have money, you have to give me something else, right?"
"I have nothing but people." Ning Yuan calmly asked.
Puff — -
Chen Mu Mu Mu couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of water. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his mouth and looked at Ning Yuan again.
"I don't want you to promise me your life."
She wasn't lacking in men, was there a need to be so hungry?
Furthermore, she was still young, and Ning Yuan was not her cup of tea.
"I'm not committing myself to you." Ning Yuan looked a little uncomfortable at her words, "I don't have that love affair either."
She was already old enough to be his daughter, how could he have such thoughts?
"Then what can you do for me?" Seeing that he felt uncomfortable, Chen Mu's heart felt a little better. A hint of interest appeared in his eyes as he said, "I don't want useless things here, including people."
Hearing that, Ning Yuan stood up, pulled out the sword behind his back, and with a few movements, cut the table in front of Chen Mu Mu Mu into thousands of pieces of wood.
The color is even, the size is the same, the handiwork is very good.
"You want to work for me?" Chen Mu Mu narrowed his eyes.
Ning Yuan nodded his head: "If you agree, then I will be your guard for one year."
