C96

After Mu Nuanzhou left, it was as if all the energy in his body had been sucked out. His body became weak, and he sat down on the ground.

Her shock could not be described with words, her world seemed to be instantly filled with raging waves, and she was merely a small boat. Her logic, her thoughts, everything about her body, were all overturned by the waves, she lay prone on the ground, trying her best to recall Fu Liangchuan's words.

Was it really because of Qi Duo's call that Xiao Zhan came back to see her without stopping?

How is this possible!?

No, she didn't believe it.

It must be because he wanted to return, since his mother and sister were both here, it was natural for him to return. It was not like what Fu Liangchuan said, it was just for her sake.

Must not be...

Mu Nuanzhou denied over and over again about Xiao Zhan's motive of returning, and repeatedly searched for other reasons. No matter what reason it was, as long as it had nothing to do with her.

After doing all of this psychological construction, she felt the waves in her heart return to calmness. She slowly stood up from the ground, and with some dizziness, she returned to her seat. Picking up her pen, she forced herself to continue working.

The more he purposely avoided thinking about Fu Liangchuan's words, the more they were like needles that penetrated through her mind, disturbing her thoughts, causing her to be unable to calm down.

Her hand was shaking so badly that when she was writing the report, her mind started to unconsciously think of the scene of Xiao Zhan's accident. Her eyes affected her work, forcing her to finally be unable to bear with her random thoughts.

As expected, Qi Duo understood her. When she thought that Xiao Zhan might have really come back because of her, and gotten ambushed, she could not help but blame herself in her heart.

Although she hated him, she never wanted him to die!

No, that's not right. He could die, but he couldn't die because of her. She didn't want her conscience to be disturbed. She didn't want it!

After Mu Nuanzhou thought it through, he suddenly stood up from his seat and walked out.

She decided to follow him. If anything happened to Xiao Zhan, she wouldn't be happy, and she would only blame herself. She didn't want to live the rest of her life blaming herself on this man.

After exiting the door, Mu Nuanzhou hired a carriage. After getting on the carriage, her expression was extremely tense, her hand had been pressing down on her heart, and after an hour, she had finally reached the Mountainside Whirlpool. The gunshot startled her and caused the carriage to sway, supporting her on the windowsill so she could not sit on the ground.

"Miss, I heard a gunshot. There must be a war in front. Let's go back!" The coachman said in panic.

Mu Nuanzhou came out of the carriage, staring at a tall mountain in the distance, he spoke to the driver: "I will get off the carriage here, you can go back."

She paid the fare and got out of the car.

After receiving the money, the carriage driver no longer cared about whether she lived or died as he drove the carriage away as if he was running for his life.

The gun sounds came from the top of the mountain, I think Qi Duo and the others must be on the mountain.

Mu Nuanzhou held onto her skirt, and with difficulty started climbing the mountain.

By the time she had finally reached the top of the mountain, the smoke had already stopped and the outcome of the battle had already been decided. Mu Nuanzhou saw that Qi Duo, who had valiantly controlled the enemy and was rushing to the side to treat the injured, had let out a sigh of relief when she saw that the two of them were still unharmed.

As Mu Nuanzhou neared the battlefield, he looked around. He unconsciously frowned, why didn't he see that man?

Wasn't it supposed to save him?

Where is he? Why wasn't he present!?
