The old man and the old lady of the Mu family originally owed Duan Si, but she had disregarded Mu Ci's life and death several times, which made them very disappointed in her. Considering that she was a simple person, they were more forgiving of her.
Lin Jun became the most powerful third party in the city, a recognized, openly existing third party with her own identity and social status.
Even in the business world, no one dares to look down on her.
She was even once a role model for all the women in the city - they believed that a woman should live as freely and boldly as Lin Jun.
But Lin Jun cannot be copied. Although someone may have her talent, appearance, ability and temperament, he or she may not have the same good fortune as her.
Thanks to her mother, Mu Yao has lived like any other rich girl since she was a child.
She was the illegitimate daughter of a concubine, but unlike those illegitimate daughters who were bullied by their own children, none of the Mu family's own children dared to show any disrespect to Mu Yao, because she was the savior of the old lady of the Mu family.
This alone allows her to walk sideways among her peers.
Besides, her two half-brothers did not suppress or exclude her.
Mu Ci was raised by his grandparents and was close to his grandmother, so he was naturally sincerely grateful to Mu Yao. As for Mu En, Lin Jun took care of him in business, so he naturally had nothing to say.
After hearing the entire story, Zhou Shuo couldn't help but sigh softly. "Everything makes so much sense, yet it's so frustrating. Everyone envies Mu Yao, but Mu Yao, on the surface, appears to be a well-behaved girl, but on the inside, she's incredibly twisted. From the very beginning, I felt like there was something amiss with her."
Mu Ci smiled bitterly and said, "How can there be a normal child born in a family like ours? It's the same for Mu En and me."
Zhou Shuo felt sorry for him. "When you don't want to work anymore, we can go back to where I grew up. It's a beautiful place with green mountains and clear waters, and it will be good for your health."
Mu Ci smiled and asked her, "Will you support me?"
Zhou Shuo nodded repeatedly and said seriously, "Of course! During the years when my master and senior brothers were away from home, I raised myself. It's just one more thing, so raising you is not a problem at all."
Mu Ci smiled dotingly, "Okay, then it's settled. When all these things are settled, we'll return to the mountains and become a pair of immortal lovers. Let our children grow up in the mountains and forests like you, free and happy."
Zhou Shuo became happy. For her, this was how the future should be.
Anya had just woken up from her sleep and was leaning against the headboard, staring out the window in a daze.
She turned around when she heard a knock on the door.
Zhou Shuo pushed the door open and walked in. When Anya saw her, a smile immediately appeared on her face, but when she saw Mu Ci, the smile disappeared.
"How do you feel today?" Zhou Shuo smiled and took Anya's hand to check her pulse.
Mu Ci sat down on the sofa. He could feel Anya's resistance to him, so he always kept a safe distance from her.
Anya's eyes always avoided him when he looked over.
They are still not sure how much Anya remembers and how much she knows about what happened back then, but from Anya's attitude towards Mu Ci, it can be seen that she does not regard Mu Ci as Mu Guo, she can tell the difference.
"You've recovered well, keep it up! If the food doesn't suit your taste, tell Xiaobai and she will adjust it for you. You can't not eat. If you don't eat, you won't have the strength to fight the disease! You have to be obedient, okay?" Zhou Shuo talked to her like a child while massaging her legs.
"I'll be obedient." Anya suddenly grabbed Zhou Shuo's hand.
Zhou Shuo was stunned for a moment, then nodded in surprise, "Okay, it's good that you're obedient. You're very good. Do you want some candy?"
Zhou Shuo took out two fruit candies from his pocket, peeled one and put it to her lips.
Anya put it in her mouth and said vaguely: "Sweet——"
She reached out to Zhou Shuo for another one.
Zhou Shuo clenched his fist and said with a smile, "Only give it to me after I finish eating. Eating too much candy will cause cavities."
"Take it back to Lin Jun." Anya reached out and tried to pry Zhou Shuo's fist open, wanting the candy.
This was the first time she mentioned Lin Jun.
Zhou Shuo dodged her hand, grabbed her and asked, "Who is Lin Jun?"
Anya was a little anxious and tried to grab Zhou Shuo's hand, "Lin Jun is a good child. She is sick. Give her some candy and she will behave well."
Zhou Shuo stopped and spread out his palm. Anya quickly grabbed the candy in her hand.
After thinking for a moment, she smiled at Zhou Shuo and said, "Thank you!"
Zhou Shuo also smiled at her, "What's wrong with Lin Jun? Do you want me to help take a look?"
Anya hesitated for a moment and sighed softly, "She has a blood disease, aplastic anemia. I have already transplanted my bone marrow to her. She is very weak and needs to be taken good care of."
Zhou Shuo stood up in surprise and turned to look at Mu Ci, who also looked shocked.
——Lin Jun actually also suffered from this disease?
Lin Jun's bone marrow was given by Anya?
"She is a poor child. My sister asked me to take good care of her. I can't just ignore her. For her, I had to deceive Mu Guo and accept the money from the Mu family to leave him. I am sorry for Mu Guo and our child." Anya suddenly hugged her knees and burst into tears.
Zhou Shuo and Mu Ci looked at each other.
Zhou Shuo stepped forward and gently placed his hand on Anya's head. "Don't be sad. The most important thing for you now is to take care of your body. Only when your body is healthy can you take care of others, right?"
Anya stopped crying.
Xiaobai knocked on the door and came in, holding a tray with millet porridge and two side dishes. Seeing Zhou Shuo and Mu Ci were there, he smiled and said, "Madam, it's time for dinner. Are you hungry?"
When Anya saw the food, her eyes lit up and she smiled at Xiaobai in a flattering way: "I'm hungry. I'll eat well. Can you please not hit me?"
Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhou Shuo in panic, and said helplessly: "Madam, I, I didn't hit her?"
Zhou Shuo took the tray from Xiao Bai and said softly, "She probably wasn't talking about you. Don't take it to heart. She's not thinking clearly right now."
Xiaobai was comforted but still a little worried and looked at Anya.
Anya smiled at her, and that smile made Xiaobai shudder.
"Madam, what's wrong with Auntie today? She seems a little bit off." She whispered to Zhou Shuo.
Zhou Shuo also turned around to look at Anya, smiled at her, pointed at Xiaobai and asked her, "She hit you, didn't she?"
Anya nodded.
Zhou Shuo said again: "Then, let's kill her, okay?"
Xiaobai was startled by Zhou Shuo's calm tone and was about to cry.
Anya thought for a moment and asked, "Aren't you going to use her blood for the experiment? She's so young, how suitable is she?"
