1197: Mu Huan’s Threat II

Mu Huan’s Threat II

"You do not need to meddle in my affairs. I am here this time for Suyi's life!" Mu Huan's eyes were full of fury. "If Mu Ling were to personally kill Suyi, then I am willing to give the Mu family a chance. I will level the Qin family. All of you can see the people behind me. These people are not the strongest ones on my husband's side! If all of you do not agree, then I will let the Mu family's life and death run its own course!2

She had initially used the Qin family and not personally taken action to force Mu Ling to personally kill Suyi!

That person was the culprit who had snatched away her father and the cause of her mother's depravity!

If it were not because of the Suyi and her son, she would not have had to… serve a man she did not even love.

All these grudges, she vented them on Suyi. Her eyes were full of anger and even carried murderous intent.

Mu Ling's body froze.

He had never had to make such a choice throughout his life.

One was his family clan, another was… a woman he already owed a lot to.

"Mu Huan, do you really wish to do this?" Mu Ling's voice was a little shaky, seemingly containing an insuppressible anger. "Do you know what you are doing? This was not Suyi's fault!"

Mu Huan never thought that at such a critical juncture, Mu Ling still spoke on behalf of Suyi. The hatred in her eyes increased. "Mother had told me that the two of you knew each other first and were truly in love. Suyi was someone who came after that. It was she who had stolen the marriage that should have belonged to my mother. All this is her fault!"

"Mu Huan!" Mu Ling shouted. "Back then, Suyi did not know about the relationship between your mother and me. Yes, I had promised to take care of Chen Qingyan. It was I who had gone back on my words! However, I still allowed her to enter the Mu family. I had previously thought that she had saved me a couple of times and felt guilty, thus I had made such a promise to her! Now I realized, the thought of giving one's life to save another is just a joke!"

Ever since he got to know about Chen Qingyan's character, Mu Ling realized many things. He also realized how many things he had done in the past that had hurt Suyi.

No matter how much entanglement there was between Chen Qingyan and his relationship, Suyi was innocent.

She was someone who had no knowledge of it. She had always thought that he and Chen Qingyan were merely cousins. It was him who had kept it all a secret. 

Now that Mu Huan was making such accusations, it made him feel depressed. It even seemed as if dark clouds were floating above his head.

"Now, I do not care. Mu Ling, I will only give you a chance. Will you kill Suyi, or not?"

Mu Huan sneered. "I have long understood you. Might, status, and family clan were always the most important things in your heart. You have forced Nan Xian to marry a wife and take in concubines for power. You would even more so force me to give myself away. However, now, I have found a person to rely on all on my own. In the future, I will no longer need to count on you!"

Mu Ling turned silent. His handsome face turned pale.

He slowly turned his head and looked at a woman dressed in white.

She was elegant and otherworldly, like a fairy from a painting. The wind was lightly blowing and the sky was clear. She looked incredibly calm and collected, as if she was not affected in any way by the words Mu Huan had spoken.

Perhaps… she had long been disappointed in him?

"Let me see who dares to hurt Suyi!" Old Master Mu shouted in anger and walked in front of Suyi. "Mu Huan, compared to Mu Xi, I have always thought you were a good child although you had a bad temper. It was just that you were brought up wrongly by your mother! Now, as I see it, a daughter takes after her mother. It is hereditary and cannot be changed!"
