Chapter 24 Pretending to be Sleeping
Pity?
Qin Mufeng only felt troubled and irritated when he saw her crying silently under the rain.
She does feel a little guilty, after all, it was he who bullied her into seducing her first, and then repaid her with kindness and ruined her innocence.
The reasons she just said are very good, and her actions are understandable.
But for some reason, he just couldn't agree, and his brain was thinking uncontrollably, what would Yun Xi do if it were her place?
When Liu Ruyan saw that he didn't speak, she began to feel unsure, and gradually the fake crying turned into real crying.
Tiny sobs leaked out one after another.
The beauty sobbing will naturally make those who see it sad and those who hear it cry, not to mention that Qin Mufeng already has some guilt hidden in his heart.
It is true that I felt irritated by her crying, and it is also true that I reflected that I had gone too far.
After struggling in his heart, he finally relented.
"If you are worried and want to stay, just stay in the yard and don't wander around and let grandma see you."
When Qin Mufeng said this, he suddenly felt the need to explain it more clearly to her. It was unnecessary not to tell her at first, but now he told her because he didn't want his grandmother to make any mistakes.
"Grandma's days are numbered. Yunxi is her grandson-in-law. I don't want her to leave any regrets or unhappiness in the end, so can you understand what I mean?"
Liu Ruyan did not expect that things would be like this. She looked at him cautiously and nodded obediently.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have disbelieved you. Is grandma okay?"
Her name made him frown slightly, but after thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with her, so he did not correct her.
"It's okay, as long as you don't appear in front of her again and irritate her."
"I...I'm sorry, I understand, I will pay attention to it."
Liu Ruyan lowered her head guiltily and said.
Qin Mufeng also knew that his request was too much and unfair to her, so he couldn't help but feel soft. Maybe he had really blamed her wrongly.
"Don't blame those who don't know, and you don't have to blame yourself too much. To elaborate on this matter, it is still my responsibility." If I had been willing to tell her the ins and outs of my cooperation with Yun Xi...
Liu Ruyan felt warm in her heart when she heard his proactive explanation, which was similar to an apology, and her previous grievances were swept away.
"Young Master, please don't think so. It's Yan'er's fault. I shouldn't disbelieve you."
Qin Mufeng didn't argue with her anymore, and gave her a few words before planning to leave.
"Young Master, nothing will happen between you and Yun Xi, right?" Liu Ruyan confirmed with some worry.
Qin Mufeng paused slightly as he left, his sharp and handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his voice was gentle and delicate: "None of the things you are worried about will happen. If you don't believe me, you can swear to me."
Liu Ruyan got what she wanted to hear, and felt warm in her heart. She pretended to be shy and considerate: "No need to swear, people believe it."
Qin Mufeng did not comment on her words.
"I'm leaving first. Grandma will become suspicious after a long time."
Liu Ruyan looked at his leaving figure, feeling satisfied in her heart.
He really believed it, he agreed with her to stay in the Hou Mansion, and she really wanted to fly on the branches and become a phoenix.
At this moment, she somewhat resentfully hoped that the old lady would die soon so that Qin Mufeng, Yun Xi and Li would marry her into the house earlier...
Qin Mufeng left the person in the house privately, so it was unexpected that Qin Yi specially asked Qin Yi to find someone to keep an eye on her.
He felt a little at ease, thinking that his grandmother was still waiting for him, so he couldn't help but quicken his pace.
"Has everything been taken care of?"
Qin Mufeng looked like a child who had done something wrong and was caught by his elders. He lowered his head with a guilty conscience and responded weakly.
"Tell me, what's going on?" She knew very well the character of the child she had raised by herself, and he was not a lusty person.
Qin Mufeng didn't want her to worry, so he hid the fact that he was being chased by the Suohunlou killer, and only said that he accidentally got drugged and ruined Liu Ruyan.
The old lady was old and had never seen any big storms, so she knew right away that things would not be as simple as he said.
"Did you really ruin this innocent girl?"
Holding a trace of luck, she confirmed with some unwillingness to give up.
Regarding that absurd and chaotic night, Qin Mufeng originally thought that he would regard it as a shame, but it felt so good that he couldn't help but secretly reflect on it at midnight.
He hated himself like this, and this feeling of being out of control made him irritated.
The old lady's hope finally came to nothing: "Alas!"
"Since you took possession of another girl's body, you are indeed responsible. You shouldn't hide it from me..."
Qin Mufeng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was in good condition and not as angry as he thought.
"Feng'er, what are your plans?"
His plan is impossible to tell even to death.
"Grandma, my grandson promised to marry her."
The old lady frowned, with a look of disapproval that was hard to ignore.
"Girl Yun is already your wife. Do you want to give up on her, or demote her status?"
"No, not at all. Grandma, please don't get excited, or you might get angry."
Qin Mufeng wished he could slap himself twice and swallow what he just said.
"Don't worry about this matter for now. Girl Yun has suffered so much injustice today. You should go back and comfort her."
Qin Mufeng has one head and two big heads, so what do you mean he doesn't have to take care of it? That's okay?
"Grandma, what are you going to do?"
"snort!"
"If she agrees to be a concubine peacefully, I will ask you to take her in. If she doesn't agree, just give her a sum of money. She is just a country girl, how can she go to heaven?"
The old lady didn't wait for him to speak and then scolded: "You too, that jade pendant is something that can prove your identity, how can you give it away casually? Fortunately, I found it in time."
Qin Mufeng didn't hear the mystery behind her words and didn't know what she meant.
"My grandson knows that he was wrong. Grandma, please don't be angry."
He thought for a while, and in order for his grandmother to live longer, he must not let his grandmother meet Liu Ruyan alone.
"Mother, don't worry about Liu Ruyan's affairs. Yunxi is a sensible person. My grandson will explain to her in a while and ask for her forgiveness."
Seeing what she wanted to say, Qin Mufeng quickly added: "My grandson doesn't want to ruin your image in Xi'er's heart, and I don't want her to think that I am not responsible and be looked down upon by her."
His words stepped on the old lady's fate, making it difficult for her to agree or not.
Yun Xi heard the noise coming from the door, wrapped herself tightly in quilt and moved to the center of the bed.
"..."
Qin Mufeng saw the lump on the bed, and a touch of relief appeared on his face that he didn't even notice.
How can this woman sleep after so many things happened?
Is it because of the long journey or because of a careless heart?
For some reason, he felt a little irritated thinking about the latter.
Yun Xi hid under the quilt and heard footsteps approaching and then moving away. After the sound of opening and closing the door, the room completely returned to silence.
She opened her eyes and saw pitch black. It turned out that he had just approached to help her turn off the light?
An unreasonable feeling of loss spread in her heart, but she didn't pay attention to it...
