Mu Nuanzhou smelled the familiar smell of disinfectant in his dreams and opened his eyes hazily. He seemed to see the white ceiling above him and the mama's caring face.
"Young Miss! You're awake? " Aunt Liu stood up from the chair with concern and held her hand.
Wasn't she supposed to be in the cave? How could he have entered the ward in the blink of an eye and seen Aunt Liu? Was he dreaming, or had he already died?
Feeling the warmth from Aunt Liu's old hand and the warmth from her palm, Mu Nuanzhou felt a sense of joy and realism, but he still asked with uncertainty, "Grandma, is it really you? Am I not dreaming and not dead? "
"Pah pah pah!" What do you mean not dying? It was difficult to wake up, but you are not allowed to say such unlucky words. If I die, my wife will die first, and Young Miss will have to live for a hundred years! " Aunt Liu cried tears of joy as she pretended to scold her.
"Your granny must live for a hundred years as well. I will show you my filial piety in the future." Mu Nuanzhou said as he held her hand.
Aunt Liu nodded her head in gratitude but she still could not help but blame her. Young Miss, you really scared me to death this time. When Miss Qi came to tell me that I didn't know whether you were dead or alive after falling off the cliff, I fainted on the spot. For the past five days, I cried tears all over my face, begging the heavens to protect you. "How can I explain this to your dead mother if something happens to you?"
Mu Nuanzhou looked at Aunt Liu guiltily. "I'm sorry Momo, I've made you worry again, I promise that next time this kind of thing will not happen again, I will never let you be careful again." Finished with her promise, she paused, then unnaturally asked, "About that … Grandma, what did Qi Duo tell you about what happened! "
Qi Duo couldn't possibly tell the mama that she had jumped off the cliff because of Xiao Zhan! If she really did say that, then what would this mama think? What if she misunderstood?
Aunt Liu saw that she admitted her wrongs sincerely and thought that she had suffered a lot, so how could he still blame her? He stroked the hair on her forehead and sighed: "Miss Qi told me already, that you followed her to Mount Lin because you were worried about her comfort, and then was captured by the enemy, and accidentally fell off the cliff, and even said …"
"Aunt Liu suddenly stopped. Mu Nuanzhou's heart tightened right after, as a trace of panic appeared in his eyes once more. What else did Qi Duo say? " He couldn't have really said something useless, right?
"He also said that Young Marshal Xiao jumped down as well in order to save you."
When she spoke about Young Marshal Xiao, even the expression in her eyes that she looked at Mu Nuanzhou with became meaningful, as it became a bit weirder.
When Mu Nuanzhou heard the first half of the story, the heavy burden in his heart was let down. He thought that it was fortunate that this Qi Duo didn't shake off the matter of Xiao Zhan jumping off the cliff because of her, in order to avoid creating a misunderstanding, but if she said that Xiao Zhan had jumped off the cliff for her, then that would be the same. Facing Aunt Liu's probing gaze, she guiltily shook her head, and weakly explained: "Grandma, he didn't jump off the cliff for me. The thing that was accidentally pulled down by me, wasn't jumping off a cliff to save me like what Qi Duo had said.
"Is that true?" Aunt Liu asked suspiciously.
Mu Nuanzhou nodded. "Mhmm, it's like this. Momo, don't let your thoughts run wild. He and I really don't have anything to do with each other."
