Chapter 198
"What other people!" Mu Yinyue said sarcastically: "In the eyes of the elder brother, my mother and I combined can't compare to the weight in your heart of that lowly maid, but elder brother, sister, let me advise you, Even if you treat her as your younger sister again, I'm afraid she won't appreciate it, so put away your wishful thinking, lest others see it as a joke!"

After finishing speaking, Mu Yinyue passed Mu Haoxuan and walked towards her yard.

Mu Haoxuan looked at Mu Yinyue's back, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

Just now, Pu Qing happened to overhear the dispute between Mu Haoxuan and Mu Yinyue in the garden. Pu Qing went back and told Mu Qingwan the content of their dispute verbatim. When it was over, she said in doubt: " Miss, don't you think Eldest Young Master is strange?"

Mu Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "What's so strange?"

"It stands to reason that the young lady is in the same situation as the main courtyard. The young master will definitely help his mother, but now, it seems that the young master is helping the young lady." Pu Qing felt a little strange.

"What you see on the surface may not be the truth. You think he is helping me, but I feel like he is trying to bring hatred to me. Well, don't you see how much Mu Yinyue hates now?" Mu Qingwan said lightly.

Hearing this, Pu Qing frowned, thought of something, and hurriedly said: "But speaking of it, the eldest lady looks so scary today, and when she talks to the young master, her tone seems to be full of murderous intent. Miss, the servant is afraid that she will harm you, so we should be careful in the future."

Hearing what Pu Qing said, Mu Qingwan remembered that when she saw Mu Yinyue these few days, Mu Yinyue seemed to be several times more hostile to her than before.

She frowned, and then said: "Well, pay attention to Mu Yinyue's movements these days, and see who she contacts."

"Yes."

At night, Pu Qing came to report and said: "Miss, Missy..." Before Pu Qing finished speaking, there was a sudden noise outside, Mu Qingwan raised her eyebrows, Pu Qing opened the door and looked out, Seeing the person coming, his expression changed slightly.

"Who is it?" Mu Qingwan asked when she saw Pu Qing standing stiffly at the door.

Pu Qing took a step back, stepped aside, and Mu Qingwan saw Chu Zhiyan walking in.

Seeing that it was Chu Zhiyan who came, a look of surprise flashed across Mu Qingwan's face. Seeing Pu Qing standing aside with an uncomfortable expression on her face, she said, "Pu Qing, go down first."

"Yes, Miss." Pu Qing responded and went out.

Only Mu Qingwan and Chu Zhiyan were left in the room, and it was a little quiet for a while, no, it should be said that the air was a little stagnant.

Mu Qingwan frowned, a little unaccustomed to such an atmosphere, and said, "Is there something wrong with your son coming so late?"

Chu Zhiyan raised his eyebrows, sat down on the chair, looked at Mu Qingwan's boudoir, and then said leisurely: "I haven't seen you for a few days, you seem to be quite unfamiliar with me."

Mu Qingwan bent her lips: "It's just a normal friendship between us, how can we talk about intimacy, how can we talk about unfamiliarity?"

Her words made Chu Zhiyan frowned, and said, "Qingwan, why don't you blame me for not coming back in time to save you?"

The matter of Mu Qingwan is in every detail. Chu Zhiyan knew everything clearly when he just came back. On the letter, it said that Gong Yichen went to tell the emperor that Mu Qingwan was his beloved woman in order to save her. , wanted to ask for marriage, at that time, only he could feel the coldness in Chu Zhiyan's heart.

He has never regretted anything, except for this one, he felt angry because he failed to protect Mu Qingwan in the first place due to his mistake.

Mu Qingwan was taken aback when she heard the words, and then said: "Your Majesty's words are serious, I have never thought about it that way. I am grateful for your Majesty's helping hand before, but no one can definitively say that you saved me. A few times, in the future, you must help me every time, so I..."

"Qingwan." Chu Zhiyan interrupted her, staring at her firmly, Mu Qingwan had never seen such a hot gaze on Chu Zhiyan's face before, for a moment, she was a little stunned , I don't understand why Chu Zhiyan looked at her like this.

Chu Zhiyan stood up, walked up to Mu Qingwan step by step, stared at her, and said word by word: "I used to think that when you can figure it out, you will naturally understand my thoughts. But right now, I'm not going to wait any longer."

"What?" She asked almost subconsciously, and Mu Qingwan looked at Chu Zhiyan in confusion.

Chu Zhiyan stretched out his hand and gently held Mu Qingwan's hand. Although the strength was not heavy, he did not allow Mu Qingwan to break free at all: "Qingwan, I want to marry you as my wife, don't you understand?"

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qingwan looked at Chu Zhiyan in a daze as if struck by lightning.

She never thought that Chu Zhiyan would say such a sentence suddenly, and she never thought before that Chu Zhiyan would have such thoughts on her. Could it be that Chu Zhiyan approached her because she could help her solve the case? ?How can this happen now...

"No, Shizi, I..." Just as I uttered a few words, my lips were blocked by two fingers.

Chu Zhiyan lightly placed his fingers on Mu Qingwan's lips, his eyes were filled with a little eagerness that he never had in the past: "Qingwan, don't rush to reject me, I won't force you, I just want you to understand My heart, let you take me as an object you can consider." After Chu Zhiyan said this, his eyes showed a bit of embarrassment.

That's right, whenever the aloof Chu Zhiyan would be so submissive, it was always women who flocked to him, so why did he do this to a woman.

However, regarding Mu Qingwan, he knew that if he missed this woman, it would be his lifelong regret.

Mu Qingwan stared blankly at Chu Zhiyan for a long time, then came back to realize that the two were so close, Mu Qingwan took two steps back to widen the distance between them, at the same time, the finger touching her lips also left.

A look of disappointment flashed in Chu Zhiyan's eyes, but soon, he regained that lofty son of King Jin.

Mu Qingwan thought for a while and said, "My lord, I think you have misunderstood our relationship. I have never had a desire to climb high, nor have I ever thought about it..."

"Qingwan." Chu Zhiyan interrupted Mu Qingwan, "I just want to tell you my attitude towards you, not to make you think otherwise. I said I won't force you."

After finishing speaking, Chu Zhiyan laughed at himself again, then turned and walked out: "You should rest early."

Just when Chu Zhiyan was about to open the door, Mo Zhuang's voice suddenly came from outside: "Miss, Miss, come here..."
