Chapter 607 Remarriage
Hu Xin'er couldn't bear to listen to his apology any longer. She staggered a few steps, turned around and ran out, slamming the door.
What she needed was more than just a superficial apology.
After she left, the light in Mu Qing's eyes gradually dimmed.
He lay exhausted on the bed, his mind constantly reminiscing about the past. Those were the most beautiful memories, all of which were the time he spent with Hu Xiner.
Her every frown and smile made him want to spend his entire life chasing her, but who could have thought that a lifetime could be so short?
After an unknown amount of time, the door was pushed open. He hurriedly stood up. When he saw that the person coming in was not Hu Xin'er, his eyes dimmed again: "Yun Jue, you're here?"
Lu Yunjue pretended not to notice the tears on his face and slowly walked to the bedside: "Don't worry, brother, Miss Du is comforting my sister-in-law. She fell asleep after crying."
Mu Qing smiled bitterly and said, "It must be hard for her to be with me."
Lu Yunjue asked bluntly, "Brother, is there anything else you want to tell me privately? If you're interested, spend more time with your sister-in-law these days. Don't always make her sad."
He and Mu Qing are twins, and he understands best what Mu Qing needs at the moment.
Mu Qing sighed and said, "After I die, you must take good care of mother, your sister-in-law, and the others. Xin'er is intelligent, but she's too straightforward. Although she's made a lot of progress recently, she's very impulsive and will do many irrational things when she gets emotional."
He hoped that Lu Yunjue, who was calm and steady, could persuade Hu Xiner not to do anything stupid.
In addition to Hu Xiner's matter, he gave many other instructions, and Lu Yunjue responded to them one by one.
In the end, the two brothers looked at each other in silence.
Mu Qing was still worried: "The Crown Prince is afraid of the forces in Qingzhou City and dares not come in, but you must also be extremely careful."
Lu Yunjue was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Brother, after you die, the Taoist priests and the others will come back without having to look for the Wanxiang Pill. Yin Li will protect my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law still has her true love, so there's nothing to worry about."
Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, then smiled vaguely, "According to what you said, can I leave with peace of mind?"
Lu Yunjue shook his head: "What I mean is, no matter how good our future life is, we would rather live with you through the ups and downs of life. I don't want to see my nephews and nieces calling someone else dad."
He held Mu Qing's hand tightly and said, "Brother, it is a great blessing to be your brother in this life. You will definitely not die."
Unlike his sentimental words, he turned and left without any hesitation after he finished speaking.
Mu Qing stopped him: "You and Miss Du..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.
Lu Yunjue said softly, "Deep love doesn't last long. I can't even protect myself, so how can I drag others down?"
Even though his appearance has returned to normal, the poisonous insect in his body is still a hidden danger.
Mu Qing frowned and said, "We can always find a solution. If you truly like Miss Du, you can tell her about this. Perhaps she would be willing to work with you to find an antidote."
Lu Yunjue was silent for a moment, then asked, "Just like you and your sister-in-law?"
Mu Qing felt a pain in his heart.
At this moment, he completely understood Lu Yunjue's feelings.
If he could do it again, if he knew there would be so many twists and turns on the road ahead, perhaps he would not choose to drag Hu Xiner into the quagmire.
Lu Yunjue left, and soon after, Hu Xiner walked in with swollen eyes.
Mu Qing did not mention remarriage again, and she did not argue with Mu Qing. The two of them just hugged each other tightly.
After a long time, Mu Qing lowered his head, put his ear to her belly, and listened to the baby's movements.
Hu Xin'er whispered, "My husband, I've already written a letter and sent it to the capital. Don't lose heart. There will always be a way. We will definitely find a way."
She added, "I sent a letter last time when Mom was sick. Calculating the date, the reply should be here by now. Maybe Godfather and the others are worried about us and will send someone directly over. Don't give up hope, okay?"
Mu Qing hummed a low "hmm," raised his head, and looked at her intently and unwillingly: "I'll do as you say."
Hu Xiner looked at his familiar eyes and remembered that when they had quarreled in the past, he had said "I'll do as you say" countless times in a doting and helpless manner.
All the past events came back to haunt her heart, and it was not until Mu Qing's cold hand touched her face that she realized her face was covered in tears.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, okay?" Mu Qing said, choking up a little. "Xin'er, the days we're together are the best."
Hu Xiner nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes.
That night, many people in the Lu Mansion were destined to have trouble sleeping.
The next day, the couple was eating in silence when they suddenly heard crying outside.
Hu Xin'er was already upset, and she felt even more unhappy when she heard the crying: "What are you doing?"
Xiao Liu and another maid walked in aggrieved: "Master, Madam."
"What happened?" Hu Xin'er asked. "Didn't the young master tell you two to go buy groceries?"
Mu Qing wanted to cook for her personally in the last days of her life, so she sent her most reliable personal maid out to buy food.
Unexpectedly, although the vegetables were bought, the two girls were crying so hard that the flowers on their heads fell off, and their eyes were bruised and swollen as if they had been punched.
After seeing their miserable appearance, Hu Xiner couldn't say how angry she was. Instead, she felt heartbroken.
The two maids hesitated for a while before stammering, "We went out to buy groceries, but heard the people outside discussing the Lu Mansion, so we followed them over to listen. Unexpectedly..."
After hearing this, the couple frowned.
It turned out that people outside were saying that the eldest son of the Lu family had taken a fancy to his silly and beautiful cousin and wanted to do something indecent!
Moreover, they spoke in a very convincing manner, and the descriptions they used were extremely exaggerated and erotic, as if you were listening to them while lying under the bed.
Jiang Ning half-took off her silk shirt and foolishly allowed the eldest young master to bully her... He was simply shameless and worse than a beast.
"This is outrageous!" Hu Xin'er slammed her chopsticks down when she heard the people outside describe the incident in this way. "How could they make it up like this? Don't they know how important Jiang Ning's reputation is?"
As Xiao Liu spoke, she began to cry again. "We servants were so angry that we went up to him to argue. But who knew they...they actually said we weren't any good either. They even came up to us and flirted with us. During the scuffle, they even punched us!"
"If we hadn't met the disciples of the Du family, we would have been... killed on the street..." Another maid also began to sob.
"What? How dare they be so arrogant?" Hu Xiner was furious.
