889: The Birthday Feast Is Just Around the Corner III

The Birthday Feast Is Just Around the Corner III

An Cui might lose her life! Thinking of this, An Cui's body gave an involuntary shudder.1

Seeing the two guards walking up to her and holding onto her arms, An Cui was frightened and quickly pushed the guards away. She then pounced on Gu Yiyi and held onto her thigh.

"Sister, I was wrong. Don't let them drain my blood, I'm scared..." An Cui knew that Gu Yiyi had always walked the talk. 

"An Cui, you are part of the An family, which has nothing to do with the Gu family. I will tell my father to send you and your mother back when I get home."

Gu Shi had banished An Cui and her mother out of the chief manor, but not Tian Shen Manor as he wanted to spare their feelings. Hence, they did not suffer from hunger after leaving the chief manor. However, both of them were ungrateful wretches.

"No!" An Cui was getting more panicked. She did not want to go back to that place. She did not want to go back to the dark days. Moreover, An Cui's mother would be beaten to death. 

Gu Yiyi disregarded An Cui and left together with the guards.

Standing under the setting sun, An Cui watched Gu Yiyi left. She could feel an icy cold sensation all over her body like she was being dumped into an ice cellar. 

'Gu Yiyi, you are truly ruthless. You don't even care about your kin.'

Tears broke free from the corner of An Cui's eyes. Her face was contorted in rage.

'I will ask others to help me. When I step into the Mu family, everything that you have chosen to let go would become mine! The prince charming of all the ladies in Tian Shen Manor is mine!'

Everyone in Mu family was very busy as the old master's birthday was just around the corner,

Perhaps Mu Ling did not tell anyone that Suyi had returned to the Mu family. Suyi's life was peaceful and quiet. No one in the Mu family disturbed her.

At the time, Han Feng saw Mu Ling from afar as he limped out of the main hall.

"Master, you are back! When you were not around in the past half a month, Lady Tan had taken full control of the old master's birthday feast preparation," Han Feng said, excitement crept into his voice.

'How could that undignified lady prepare for the old master's birthday feast?' Mu Ling's face darkened.

"Your leg has not recovered yet?" Mu Ling asked as he frowned. 

 Han Feng smiled wryly.

The other day, Mu Ling had tasked Han Feng to send the bride price to the princess manor. However, before Han Feng could step into the princess manor, Feng Ruqing had thrown him out of the manor. 

Unfortunately, Nan Xian and Suyi had beheld the whole incident. Not only did Han Feng's leg was crippled, he was severely injured. He had been resting in the Mu family since and had only managed to walk out of the chamber today. Hence, Han Feng would never step into Liu Yun Kingdom every again.

"Master, it's getting better. Thank you."

"Uhm, are Huan'er and Qingyan back?"

When Mu Ling mentioned Qingyan, his face softened. His face was completely different when he talked about Tan Shuangshuang.

"Master, Lady Qingyan has tasked someone to send us a letter. She has found a birthday gift for the old master. She may return in the next few days."

Hearing this, Mu Ling's eyes were full of tenderness. However, when he thought of how sarcastic Suyi had treated Chen Qingyan, his face darkened a few shades.

"By the way, has Grandmaster Hai Rong left?"

This was the most important thing now.

The old master's birthday was just around the corner. If the Grandmaster Hai Rong was still staying in the Mu family, he might bump into Suyi and the lie would be revealed.
