Baili Mingyue glared defiantly at Shangguan Yichen: "Your mother is injured..."

Shangguan Yichen's eyes were cold: "I can take care of Mother!"

"You can't..." Baili Mingyue hugged Mo Qingcheng tightly, then lightly landed on her horse, spurring it and kicking up a cloud of dust.

Shangguan Yichen snorted coldly, clenched his fists, and hurriedly spurred his horse to follow. He was increasingly disappointed in his father. His mother's aura was coveted by many people. What could he do?

For the first time, Baili Mingyue held Mo Qingcheng legitimately right under Shangguan Yichen's nose, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Back at the manor, Old Man Bai and the others were startled.

"What happened to Sister Mo?" Old Man Bai was still in shock. Yue'er was in trouble, and now Sister Mo was in trouble too...

"Mother is alright, but Grandpa Mo is worried." Shangguan Yichen hurriedly said this and followed Baili Mingyue into Mo Qingcheng's bedroom.

Mu Wanqing and Shangguan Yunxi exchanged a glance: "Grandpa, take good care of your younger brother and sister. My second sister and I will go in and take a look."

The little girl's eyes darted around, and she grabbed Shangguan Yunxi's hand and followed after them.

Shangguan Yichen frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and decided it would be good for Qing'er and the others to come along...

Mo Qingcheng was pale and unconscious.

Baili Mingyue gently placed Mo Qingcheng on the beauty step, then looked up and her eyelids twitched wildly: "You all go outside and wait!"

"no!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Mu Wanqing and Shangguan Yunxi retorted in unison. Shangguan Yichen came in backlight, emanating a cold aura, his meaning self-evident: don't even think about it.

Anxious footsteps sounded outside the door, and in the blink of an eye, Mu Shenyi and Mo Qingyang arrived one after the other.

Mo Qingyang's veins bulged: "Baili, get out of my way!"

Baili Mingyue felt extremely frustrated. What was all this nonsense?

Hindsight is 20/20.

Mu Shen stepped forward, reached out his hand, and took Mo Qingcheng's pulse. Mu Wanqing, not to be outdone, also reached out her small hand, but frowned deeply.

Mo Qingyang gestured for Mu Wanqing to make room for him, but Mu Wanqing glared at him fiercely, indicating that he shouldn't go too far, and reluctantly moved aside a little.

Fifteen minutes later, Mu Shenyi gasped: "Is this girl courting death?"

"Grandpa Mu, is Mommy badly hurt?" Mu Wanqing looked at Shangguan Yichen with a worried expression, asking with her eyes how her mother got hurt.

Shangguan Yichen was at a loss for words. He shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. His mother had hidden him, Bai Yihei, and others away, and they knew nothing about what was happening outside.

He was released just before his mother fell into a coma, but they were some distance apart, creating the illusion that he had caught up with her.

Mo Qingyang's expression was grave: "Junior Sister... has suffered a spiritual injury..."

Mu Wanqing's heart skipped a beat: "Grandpa Mu, is Mother... still awake?"

"Hmm..." Mu Shenyi responded lightly, and finalized a treatment plan with Mo Qingyang. However, it was only a temporary measure to suppress the symptoms, and the worst outcome would be that Mo Qingcheng would become an idiot.

The two knew the truth but did not tell a third person. Shangguan Yichen closed his eyes, pondering whether he could find another way to save his mother.

Mu Wanqing, quick-witted and clever, noticed that Shangguan Yichen was in a bad mood. She tugged at his sleeve and smiled, "Big brother, don't do anything foolish. Mother will wake up soon..."

Shangguan Yichen's lips moved as he stared intently at Mu Wanqing, wanting to tell her not to get involved and cause trouble, but he swallowed the words back. After a long while, he nodded.

Mu Wanqing and Shangguan Yunxi exchanged a glance. Had their older brother stopped listening or had he simply not taken it to heart?

That's unpredictable.

Not daring to cause any trouble, Mu Wanqing instructed Shangguan Yunxi to keep a close eye on her elder brother before she and Mo Qingyang plunged into the alchemy room.

Despite his exhaustion, Shangguan Yichen stood motionless in the room, refusing to leave.

Mu Wanqing couldn't stand it any longer and reminded him, "Big brother, if you don't go back, who will cover for me tonight?"

"..." Shangguan Yichen forced a bitter smile, glanced back at Mo Qingcheng, and turned to leave...
