Chapter 118
into the night.

Cold wind blows.

The Mu Mansion, which was supposed to be bustling and bustling with a birthday banquet for the old man of the Mu family, was completely silent at the moment.

"The wind tonight seems to be colder than usual." Bizhu came in with a basin of chestnuts, ready to roast them on the charcoal basin.

When opening the door, Suyu glanced outside and saw that the high hanging lantern was shaking non-stop, and said: "Cangde rarely sees such a strong wind, when I first came to Bai'an, I was a little uncomfortable. "

The chestnuts are piled on the charcoal basin, occasionally there will be a few clear crackling sounds, and the subtle sweet smell will quietly infect the whole room warmly.

Mu Changge held up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Cangde is located in the south, so such a strong wind is naturally rare. If you go to a place further north, I'm afraid you will be even more surprised when you see it."

"If there is a chance to go, I'm afraid that the servant will not pay attention to the wind." Suyu lowered her head, smiled and played with the chestnuts a few times, "The servant must work with Bizhu to find a hemp rope to tie the young lady tightly. This willow has a slender waist so that the wind won't blow it into the sky."

Bizhu also followed up and said: "Isn't that the case? If the two slaves and maidservants are blown away at that time, it's okay to say that if the young lady is blown away, won't the prince feel so distressed?"

The little wooden stick that was playing with the chestnuts paused slightly, Suyu's eyes dimmed inexplicably on that fair face, and disappeared in an instant.

Mu Changge pressed his brows together and pretended to be angry, "You girl, your mouth is getting more and more capable. You dare to gossip like the prince, and if you talk like this, if you really want to offend someone someday, I can't help it." Never mind you."

Just as the master and servant were laughing, the closed door was suddenly slapped.

It's already this hour, who would suddenly come to Qiancui Courtyard?
Bizhu was about to go forward, but Suyu was one step ahead of her, approached the door, opened the door a gap, and said in astonishment: "Isn't this Miss Fourth?"

Mu Junru's voice squeezed in from the door with the cold wind, "Second sister, have you slept yet?"

This is interesting, Mu Changge held the hand stove, raised his eyebrows lightly, and raised his voice: "I haven't slept yet, it's cold outside, since the fourth sister is here, come in quickly."

Suyu turned sideways, and Mu Junru came in with a can of things.

"Fourth sister came by coincidence. The roasted chestnuts will be ready soon. I'll ask the servant girl to peel them for you."

"No... I don't dare to bother my second sister."

Mu Junru approached, with a flattering smile on his face, but he looked a little stiff no matter how he looked.

Under Mu Changge's gesture, Mu Junru sat aside.In the past, every time I met Mu Changge, Mu Junru would always be a little bit unconvinced, and there would be some thorns in what he said.However, this time, she completely restrained herself a lot, and there was a kind of obedience and softness in the corners of her eyes and brows.

How she behaved against Mu Changge today, Bizhu can remember clearly, now seeing her pretending, anger secretly boiled in her heart.

However, after all, the visitor is a guest, and Mu Changge is the master, so she hasn't made trouble yet, and Bizhu naturally didn't want to be too obvious, but she just pulled the corners of her mouth with a fake smile, "Miss Si doesn't talk much today, This servant remembers that the most lively person in our mansion must belong to Fourth Miss."

Mu Junru was annoyed, and the anger almost spread to her face at this moment.After all, she is the well-known young lady of the Mu family, when will a servant dare to get angry with her! ?

Just about to explode, Mu Junru caught a glimpse of the smiling Mu Changge from the corner of her eye, and her heart sank suddenly, no matter how angry she was, she suppressed it forcefully.With only one hand, he twisted his fingers vigorously.

"In such a cold weather, why doesn't Fourth Sister carry a hand stove?"

Mu Junru's face tightened, and then he quickly put the can of things he brought on the table, his smile was slightly stiff, "I was afraid that the servant girl would spill the soup if she was clumsy, so I held it all the way by myself, and gave it to the two of you." My sister brought it."

"Second sister is tired in Thailand today, and I don't know what I can do to help second sister, so I boiled this soothing soup and brought it here, thinking that it might be useful."

While speaking, Mu Junru looked at Mu Changge carefully, her heart tensed up to the extreme.

"Today...today, I was so infatuated that I was almost deceived by others. I wronged my second sister. Jun Ru already knew that I was wrong. I just hope that my second sister can be magnanimous and don't be as knowledgeable as me! I...I Never dare again!"

Mu Junru pursed her lips hard, and tears fell down, crying heartbreakingly, "Second Sister, Jun Ru really dare not talk nonsense anymore, I only hope Second Sister can forgive me this time!"

The jar was still steaming. It seemed that she was really careful in hugging it all the way. The cold weather didn't even let the jar cool down.

Mu Changge stretched out his hand, and touched the edge of the earthen jar with his fingertips, and the tentacles were really hot.

"It's really difficult for the fourth sister to carry me all the way."

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult!" Mu Junru shook her head again and again, with a full-fledged expression on her face, "As long as I can do something for the fourth sister to make up for it, Jun Ru is willing! I only hope that the second sister can... Forgive me for my careless mistake today!"

Mu Changge smiled, and her eyelashes cast a small shadow on her eyelids, covering her eyes, which made it hard to see clearly for a while.

The sincerity seems to be perfect, but it is a pity that Mu Junru's sincerity is just like the pot of soup she brought, no matter how much she whitewashes it, it can't cover up the clumsy inside.Before it cooled down, there was already a greasy smell of oil.

"Fourth sister seems to be thinking too much." Mu Changge's eyes swept away indifferently.

Mu Junru's eyes suddenly showed a bit of hope. She came here this time with a sense of luck. Even her biological mother, Aunt Song, didn't know what the Da Furen had discussed with her before, so Mu Changge was even more so. It is difficult to know.

At the birthday banquet, although she pressed Mu Changge every step of the way, even if it was said that she was just in a hurry and had to make such a bad move in order to protect the entire Mu family, it was reasonable.

If Mu Changge can also think as she hopes, then even if she still broods over this matter, she won't hate her.

Mu Jun lowered his heart subconsciously, his palms were already dripping with cold sweat.

However, just when she thought that Mu Changge would most likely get what she wanted, the person in front of her opened her mouth without haste, with the same elegant smile on her face, and said The words made her subconsciously feel cold——

"Why did the fourth sister ever have any 'unintentional mistakes'? Why do you need to apologize to me for something that never happened?"

"Second, Second Sister..."

Mu Junru panicked, and then met Mu Changge's eyes. From there, there was neither deep-rooted hatred nor tenderness and forgiveness. She couldn't tell whether it was a turbulent undercurrent or a quiet and calm one!
But there is one thing she understands.Mu Changge's words seem so generous that she doesn't even remember what happened, but the real meaning in her words is clearly to remind her that everything she did was not an accident at all. !
It was clearly a warm room, but Mu Junru felt as if she had been drenched in a bucket of ice water from head to toe, and her whole body felt cold like being pricked by needles.

It was not an unintentional mistake, so why let it go?

The blood in Mu Junru's whole body seemed to be frozen. In front of Mu Changge, she was smiling and her eyes were gentle. They were sisters, and they should be close, but now, she couldn't even look at her. Heartbroken.

The night was getting darker, just like the silence in the room at this moment, thick and slightly oppressive.

The corners of Mu Changge's lips twitched, and with slender fingers, he gently brushed the broken hair on his temples, and broke the silence at the moment, "Why, am I not right?"

Before she opened her mouth, a thin layer of sweat had already oozed from the tip of Mu Junru's nose. She was only three-point quick with her tongue, although she was a bit mean, she had no intention of scheming.Now my heart is in a panic again, facing this specious sentence, I don't know how to respond at all.

There was only a crackling sound, Mu Junru's body trembled, cold sweat soaked most of her body.

Mu Changge squinted at the past with a half-smile, and blamed Bizhu, "What are you doing here? All the good chestnuts fell into the charcoal fire. If they are roasted, bring them quickly. It’s just that you have to be more careful and pick out the chestnut from the fire, even if you can get the sweetness, you will inevitably burn your hands in the end.”

Bizhu blinked her eyes when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Miss, you don't have to worry about the servant, the servant is so greedy, if you want to take it, you have to wait for the fire to cool down."

The master and servant each said, to Mu Junru's ears, every sentence was like a soft knife cutting flesh, it was extremely uncomfortable.

If she just walked away at this moment, maybe she would be happier, but she dared not.Holding on to the sore corners of her lips, Mu Junru made a hasty calculation in her heart, and finally, she turned her heart and raised her gaze, looking straight at Mu Changge.

"Second sister is smart, so I don't have to hide it anymore." Mu Junru bit the corner of her lips, desperate, "If second sister is willing to let go of the past and let me go, Junru will definitely treat second sister If you reciprocate, you will never disappoint the second sister."

Mu Changge chuckled, his calm gaze fell on Mu Junru lightly, and he said slowly: "I don't understand what the fourth sister is doing. Since you keep saying that there is no need to cover up, why don't you treat each other honestly?" ? Could it be that in the eyes of the fourth sister, I am so easy to make fun of?"

Mu Junru was shocked, "Why did Second Sister say that? Is there anything I have never said to Second Sister!?"

Mu Changge turned sideways, raised his brows slantly, and said meaningfully, "Shouldn't the fourth sister be the clearest in her heart?"
