Recently, Zhu Yan would always stare blankly at a certain place for half a day. If no one called him, he would never snap out of it.
"I'm fine, my lord," Zhu Yan looked at Mu Fengqie with a bit of puzzlement. Why did his master ask such a question?
"Are you really okay? Then why have you been in a daze every day these days?" Mu Fengqie voiced her doubts. Zhu Fei had reported this to her more than once. Once, Zhu Yan was cooking, but then he started to daze and almost set the kitchen on fire.
Zhu Yan was stunned. He didn't expect his master to know about this. However, "It's nothing. I just haven't figured out some private matters."
"In that case, stop thinking about it. There are many things in this world that can't be figured out. Sometimes, when you no longer want to know, the answer will come to you," Mu Fengqie had no intention of asking further after learning it was a private matter. After all, it was someone's privacy.
"If you have anything you can't figure out in the future, and if you don't mind, come and talk to me. Although I may not be able to give you any feasible advice, I can be a good listener," Mu Fengqie said.
Zhu Yan looked at Mu Fengqie, hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Under Mu Fengqie's caring gaze, he left.
He also wanted to know why he was often in a daze. Wasn't it just a woman? Why did she have such a great impact on him? Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan, you've really fallen for her, he thought, self - deprecatingly smiling.
Before following Mu Fengqie to Wupian Mountain, he went to find that woman as he used to. They were almost at the stage of getting engaged, but what he saw that day made him furious.
That woman, who would blush even when he just held her hand, could do such disgusting things. She was really shameless!
Zhu Yan looked at the amulet that woman had made for him. He closed his eyes and then shattered it with his inner strength without any emotion.
There would be no more naive Zhu Yan from now on. In fact, love wasn't that great. It was good to be alone. Why did he have to pursue love? As he thought about it, his eyes filled with tears.
Love? He didn't want to touch this thing anymore.
After Zhu Yan left, Mu Fengqie sent someone to investigate this matter. Zhu Yan's recent state was not right. It was better to have someone look into it. If she could help, she would do her best.
Coincidentally, the person Mu Fengqie sent was the one who had accompanied Zhu Yan that day. The secret guard told Mu Fengqie everything about Zhu Yan.
After hearing this, Mu Fengqie's face darkened.
"Does this woman know whose subordinate Zhu Yan is?" How dare she treat one of her people so badly? She had to be prepared for revenge. Eating with one eye on the plate and the other on the pot, wasn't she afraid of choking?
The secret guard said awkwardly, "I don't know, my lord. That was the first time I knew Brother Zhu had someone he liked. Brother Zhu had too many things to carry that day, so he took me with him. It was also the first time I went to that woman's house."
"It's good that we know where her house is. Give me her address. When I get back, I'll go and have a chat about life with her," Mu Fengqie said this without any emotion, as if she was just talking about the weather.
But the secret guard beside her felt a chill in her tone. After shivering, he silently retreated. He hoped his master wouldn't hurt the innocent! He knew nothing.
After Yuan Yerui interrogated Li Daniu and learned the truth, he rushed over in a hurry. But before he could reach Mu Fengqie, she stopped him.
"Stay there and don't move!" Mu Fengqie said, trying to hold back the nausea in her stomach.
"Master, what's wrong?" Yuan Yerui looked at Mu Fengqie in confusion. "I came today to tell you that I'm better than Jing Xunce. I interrogated the person behind Li Daniu." Then Yuan Yerui excitedly ran over.
As soon as Yuan Yerui came closer, Mu Fengqie couldn't hold it back anymore and vomited. Yuan Yerui was stunned looking at Mu Fengqie.
"Master?"
"Stay away from me!" Mu Fengqie gritted her teeth and said, looking at Yuan Yerui. Why was this kid so disobedient?
When Zhu Fei came over, she saw Mu Fengqie squatting in the corner, vomiting continuously, while Yuan Yerui was standing not far away.
"Master, are you vomiting again?" Zhu Fei quickly walked over and poured a glass of water for Mu Fengqie.
"Go and throw this brat out. I'll feel better," Mu Fengqie pointed at Yuan Yerui.
At this time, Zhu Fei also smelled a faint smell of blood in the air and immediately understood what was going on. Without saying a word, she grabbed Yuan Yerui and dragged him out of the tent.
"What are you doing? I'm here to see my master," Yuan Yerui said, looking at Zhu Fei indignantly.
Zhu Fei ignored Yuan Yerui's words and just said indifferently, "You'd better wash yourself clean before coming to see the master. The master vomited because of the smell on you."
Yuan Yerui was stunned. What smell could there be on him? He carefully smelled himself all over. Finally, when Zhu Fei couldn't stand it anymore, she said, "You have a smell of blood on you. The master can't stand this smell the most right now."
Hearing this, Yuan Yerui was stunned. The smell of blood? Right, he had just come out of the prison. No wonder Jing Xunce didn't come back immediately. It turned out that he had gone to take a bath because of the smell of blood on him.
This man was really so mean. He didn't even tell him. The master must have disliked him just now. Jing Xunce was really a bad guy!
Yuan Yerui dejectedly went to take a bath. He washed himself three times inside and out. After making sure there was no smell left, he changed into a fresh set of clothes and went to find Mu Fengqie.
Mu Fengqie was in Jing Xunce's arms, eating something. When she saw Yuan Yerui coming, she felt a bit nervous. But after seeing his wet hair, she relaxed. Fortunately, he had gone to take a bath. Otherwise, she would have vomited again.
"Qier, eat a bit more. You didn't eat much just now," Jing Xunce glanced at Yuan Yerui and continued to feed Mu Fengqie.
"I won't eat anymore. I'm already full. I'll eat when I'm hungry," she had eaten quite a bit, but Jing Xunce always said she ate too little, which was not good for the baby in her belly.
Every time at this moment, Mu Fengqie would be very angry. In his heart, was the baby more important or was she more important? But she never asked this question because she couldn't bring herself to. She always felt such a question was too silly.
"Okay, then stop eating."
