1926: Returning to Cang Yue Mainland VIII

Returning to Cang Yue Mainland VIII

Gu Shi looked at Gu Yiyi. He did not know how to tell her that the Mu family had come for the tenth time to propose marriage to her...2

His daughter was so stubborn. She refused to get married and wanted to wait for Feng Ruqing.

***

Meanwhile, in the Mu family...

Mu Qingyin, in an elegant green robe, stood under the peach blossom tree. Sunlight poured down upon him, casting a glow around his body.

"Young Master..." A voice said from ahead.

Mu Qingyin looked up and saw a boy running toward him, holding a jade ware, which was clearly engraved with the word 'Mu'.

"Someone sent this, saying that it is an engagement's gift for Young Master."

Mu Qingyin and Gu Yiyi got engaged a few years ago with the blessing of their parents.

However, Gu Yiyi did not want to get married because Feng Ruqing had not returned, so the wedding had been delayed until today.

But...

When Mu Qingyin saw the jade in the boy's hand, he froze for a moment and frowned.

He pondered for a while but eventually pursued the man.

The street after dusk was quiet.

Mu Qingyin ran out and saw a figure wearing a hat.

He rushed forward, stopped before this person, and asked in an indifferent voice, "Why do you still bother to come back?"

The man with the bucket hat froze and lowered his eyes without speaking.

"I don't care about your engagement gift. I don't want Suyi and Nan Xian to be unhappy when they come back and see you here." Mu Qingyin forcibly took the man's hand and put the jade ware in his hand. "I'll give it back to you."

This jade ware could be used to attack and also to defend oneself.

But...

He did not need it.

"Sorry..." The man's voice was a little hoarse.

If he did not clearly recognize his figure, Mu Qingyin could not believe that this voice was his.

Mu Qingyin slightly froze for a moment, raised his hand, and lifted the bucket hat.

The man's face was covered with scars, and he was no longer as handsome as he was back then.

"You..."

Mu Qingyin froze and was dumbfounded.

The man lowered his gaze and smiled bitterly. "I'm fine, don't let... Don't let the old master know I've come back."

The old master had thrown him out without mercy back then, so it was clear how deep his disappointment was.

He had suffered a lot outside these years and understood how big the mistake he made back then was.

He has hurt the woman who loved him most in his life.

He also abandoned his child!

Mu Qingyin frowned. "How did you end up like this?"

Mu Ling shook his head. "I used to think that I was a member of the Mu family and would always be respected by people. Until I left the Mu family… I finally understand how big the world is and how much danger is there. I'm nothing without the Mu family!"

Mu Qingyin was silent.

A few moments later, the man spoke clearly and elegantly.

"Then... Do you have any regrets?"

'Regrets?'

Mu Ling laughed bitterly.

'How can there be no regrets…'

If he could return to that year, he would certainly not disappoint Suyi again.

Unfortunately, there was no such thing.

From now on, Suyi no longer belonged to him...

"Regret or not, nothing will change. What should happen has happened. I've hurt them. Second Brother, this time I have come back with no bad intention..." His voice cracked. "I came to give you blessings..."

Mu Qingyin trembled.

He hated him!

How could he not hate him?!

Because of Mu Ling, the Mu family had almost lost Suyi and Nan Xian.

Because of Mu Ling's gullibility to Chen Qingyan, Old Master Mu had almost lost his life!

He hated Mu Ling for many years, but seeing him so miserable now, his heart could not help but ache a little...
