"Mr. Lu, instead of spending time here, you'd better console Sister Yu more. After all, the wedding is coming soon. Sister Yu might be a bit anxious, and it's natural for her to be in a bad mood."
"If you could accompany Sister Yu more, she'd surely love you even more." When saying the last few words, Yong Shanling emphasized her tone. Suddenly, Lu Liang felt a tightness in his chest.
Seeing Yong Shanling's dismissive tone, he had no reason to stay. Looking at Yong Shanling, who had ruined his plan, the venom in his eyes was no less than that in Mu Yu's.
After Lu Liang left, Yong Shanling's tone softened. "Wu Na, you can cancel it."
"Huff, huff." Wu Na, who had canceled her invisibility, was flushed and sweating. Liu Ming couldn't help but find it funny.
"I told you to turn invisible, not to hold your breath, Wu Na."
"I was just too nervous. I was afraid the invisibility would fail accidentally."
"It's better to be careful. One wrong move here could cost you your life."
Yong Shanling got up and walked towards the second floor.
As dawn broke, there was an inexplicable commotion in the manor. The sky outside the window was overcast, and the day was gloomy. Some birds were fluttering aimlessly in the air.
"It seems it's going to rain today." Yong Shanling slowly drew the curtains. Looking at the sky that seemed about to fall, it was rather unpleasant.
Liu Ming and Wu Na in the bed were still sleeping. Although it seemed like rain was coming, all the servants were setting up the wedding venue on the lawn.
She checked the time. It was only five in the morning. She couldn't help but shake her head. "My sleep schedule has been messed up again recently."
She opened the door and stood beside Mu Yijie's room. Leaning against the wall, she stared at her toes in a daze. Hearing some movement inside, Yong Shanling, who originally wanted to escape, froze in place.
Looking at the quiet door, Yong Shanling stood back. She didn't know what was wrong with herself. She wanted to see Mu Yijie but also wanted to avoid him.
She squatted in front of the door, counting her fingers and occasionally looking at the closed door. A maid passing by looked at her curiously.
"Miss Yong Shan, do you have any orders?"
"Oh, no, no."
After a few such instances, she sighed. Just as she was about to leave, the locked door that had been closed finally showed some signs of loosening. Mu Yijie opened the door a crack.
Mu Yijie was buttoning his shirt but didn't look at Yong Shanling. He turned around and walked away from the door.
"Come in."
Yong Shanling hesitated for a moment but finally pushed the door open and walked in. She gently closed the door. The room was completely dark, and the atmosphere was rather gloomy. She felt a bit uncomfortable.
When she was about to draw the curtains, Mu Yijie grabbed her hand. "What are you doing here?"
Yong Shanling looked at Mu Yijie's hand, and her gaze slowly moved to his face. Seeing his cold expression, she felt a bit uncomfortable. The words she originally wanted to say to make up got stuck in her throat.
"Of course I have something to talk to you about. Would I come if I had nothing to do?"
Mu Yijie let go of her hand and walked to the side to put on his coat. With a dark face, he seemed in a bad mood. After putting on his clothes, he sat on the bed, propping his hands on the bed and crossing his legs.
"Then just say it. Leave after you're done."
"Uncle Shu, do you really have to be like this? Are you happy only when our relationship becomes so tense?"
"Get to the point."
Yong Shanling was a bit speechless looking at his attitude. He always ignored her feelings. She lost her good temper.
"I can't be responsible for Mu Yu's safety today."
"Then don't be."
"So Liu Ming, Wu Na, and I will go back after the wedding. You can handle the rest yourself."
"Okay."
Yong Shanling was really annoyed seeing his nonchalant attitude. She rushed over and pushed him onto the bed.
"Don't you really have anything to say?"
"So what exactly do you want me to say?"
She snorted and kissed him. Slowly, Mu Yijie's desire was stirred up. Just as he was about to respond, she pulled away.
Looking at Mu Yijie cunningly, she licked her moist lips, looking extremely alluring.
"Are you trying to seduce me?" Mu Yijie looked at her with a smile. He seemed to be in a better mood.
But she still had a straight face, looking very unhappy.
"I'm just venting. I'm so annoyed that I'm always angry."
Then she lay on Mu Yijie's body, looking a bit aggrieved.
Mu Yijie sat up, hugged her, and ruffled her hair. He said helplessly, "I also want to share your burdens. I feel so bad seeing you always taking everything on yourself."
"Uncle Shu..."
"Can you move your hand?"
Yong Shanling suddenly looked up at Mu Yijie. At this moment, his hand was wandering on her body. She slapped his wandering hand, but Mu Yijie's hand became even more presumptuous.
"The fire you started is not so easy to put out."
Then Mu Yijie turned around and pinned her under him. There was another bout of passion.
Yong Shanling barely walked into the bathroom. Looking at Mu Yijie, who seemed like a licentious man, she was really itching with hatred. Her legs were still trembling when she walked.
Who would have thought two hours had passed in a flash. Mu Yijie was looking at the information on his phone contentedly, waiting for her.
When she came out of the shower, it was almost ten o'clock. She collapsed on the sofa and even felt it was a struggle to move a finger. "Uncle Shu, help me get my dress."
Mu Yijie nodded. When he opened the door, he saw Wu Na and Liu Ming standing at the door awkwardly. They originally wanted to look into the room, but Mu Yijie's tall figure blocked their view. They looked a bit troubled.
"What's wrong?" Mu Yijie looked at the two who were nudging each other indifferently.
"Cough, cough. Is Shanling in your room?"
Liu Ming asked carefully, afraid that Mu Yijie would get angry.
"Yes. Why?"
Liu Ming and Wu Na were stunned when they heard Mu Yijie's answer. Liu Ming couldn't control her mouth.
"Have you made up?"
"We never quarreled."
Hearing Mu Yijie's definite answer, Liu Ming was stunned. Finally, Wu Na dragged her downstairs.
When Mu Yijie saw Yong Shanling in her dress, he didn't want her to leave the room. He wanted to keep her all to himself.
Her long, wavy hair cascaded over her chest. A black off - the - shoulder evening dress with a high slit set off her snow - white skin. In the dim room, she was like a blooming flower. Her fair and charming legs exuded a silent allure in the black dress, as if tempting people to fall into her trap.
Yong Shanling looked at herself in the mirror, looking a bit distressed. "There are hickeys all over my neck. I have to use foundation to cover them. Uncle Shu, you're not being reserved at all."
Mu Yijie put his black coat on her and whispered in her ear, "This way, everyone will know you're mine."
Yong Shanling saw that the coat could cover the hickeys, so she didn't care. She followed Mu Yijie to find the two girls who had run away.
Just as they reached the downstairs, the two girls suddenly rushed over and grabbed her hands.
