After leaving the balcony, Mu Liuyun slowly walked down the steps, her gaze inadvertently sweeping over her two older sisters standing not far ahead. They were looking at her with worried expressions, their concerned eyes seemingly able to pierce through the depths of her heart.
Mu Liuyun knew in her heart that her expression at this moment was definitely not good, after all, what happened on the balcony just now had made her feel particularly heavy.
"Xiaoyun, what's wrong? You look so pale."
The eldest sister, Lin Hongmei, spoke first, her tone filled with anxiety and concern.
Mu Liuyun shook her head slightly and replied softly, "It's really nothing, big sister, don't worry."
However, his voice sounded somewhat weak.
Lin Hongmei naturally understood her brother's thoughts; she certainly knew what Mu Xiaoxi meant to Mu Liuyun.
Just as the TV screen flashed by, she caught a glimpse of the figure on the screen—it was Mu Xiaoxi.
So, Lin Hongmei tried to comfort her younger brother with gentle words: "Xiaoyun, you really don't need to worry too much about Xiaoxi. Although I haven't met her many times, from the few times I've met her, she seems very independent and has a clear plan for her future. Besides, she's all grown up now and can take care of herself, so you can relax!"
Hearing her elder sister's words, Mu Liuyun couldn't help but smile bitterly to herself.
Indeed, Mu Xiaoxi has grown up now, and sometimes she even treats him, her older brother, like an RPG.
Thinking of this, Mu Liuyun couldn't help but sigh again.
At this moment, the second sister, Lin Fangyi, also stepped forward and chimed in, "That's right, Xiaoyun. Do you remember when Brother Rui mentioned it last time? Even that Lao Mo who has killed countless people, Xiaoxi can handle him with ease. She's very capable, so you don't need to worry too much."
Mu Liuyun was actually quite clear about this.
Long ago, he had vaguely sensed that Mu Xiaoxi's stats seemed somewhat out of place in this world.
In particular, the strength she displayed would probably make her at least a grandmaster in a typical low-level martial arts world.
But after all, she's a girl I watched grow up, and even though she's watched me grow up, I still worry about her.
"I understand, thank you, sisters."
"boss."
Halfway through his sentence, Zhang Rui suddenly walked over with a livid face, deliberately avoiding Lulu's gaze, and came to Lin Hongmei's side, saying in a low voice, "Lin Yaodong is here."
Upon hearing this, Lin Hongmei immediately frowned: "What's that old man doing here?"
"I don't know, but he's the only one."
"Alright, Second Sister, take Lulu and Xiaoyun back to their room. Let me see what's going on."
"Big sister, I'll stay too."
To be honest, in both of Mu Liuyun's lives, the only person he could call an enemy was Lin Yaodong, but he hadn't had much of a chance to have a proper conversation with this enemy.
Today, since he can be sure of his safety at the Lin family villa, he really wants to have a chat with this old man about how he got lost back then.
Seeing the determination in Mu Liuyun's eyes, Lin Hongmei didn't refuse. In any case, Lin Yaodong couldn't cause any trouble in her house.
Soon, the two arrived at the living room. Zhang Rui brought Lin Yaodong in and sat opposite Mu Liuyun and Lin Hongmei. He then stood behind Lin Hongmei, watching Lin Yaodong intently.
Seeing this, Lin Yaodong smiled slightly: "Grandniece, this old man has only missed today, why are you so nervous?"
Lin Hongmei returned a smile, her expression very polite: "Old man, which eye of yours saw me nervous?"
Lin Hongmei's barbed reply startled Lin Yaodong for a moment before he realized what she meant.
Last time, he attacked Mu Liuyun in front of Zhang Rui, which was already a complete breakdown in relations, so there was no need to give him a friendly look.
"Hehe, it's this old man's fault."
What brings you here today?
Lin Hongmei didn't have time to waste with this old man's nonsense and went straight to the point.
Upon hearing Lin Hongmei's question, Lin Yaodong took out the wooden plaque from his pocket and waved it in front of Mu Liuyun: "I'm here today to return this plaque. My little nephew ran off in such a hurry that night that he forgot about it."
As he spoke, he placed the wooden plaque on the table.
"Oh, this must be Mu Liuyun. It was too dark that night to see her clearly, but seeing her today, she really is... well, truly as beautiful as a flower."
Mu Liuyun ignored this low-level provocation, but stared intently at Lin Yaodong and asked, "What exactly did you do back then?"
"It's nothing, I just stole you from the hospital and brought you back to China to threaten my nephew."
Lin Yaodong waved his hand, looking completely innocent.
Then, his eyes turned gloomy in an instant: "You asked me this question, and I also have a question I want to ask you."
"I watched with my own eyes as you and the person who stole you were fed to a bear, and even this sign ended up in the bear's belly. How did you survive, and how did you find this sign?"
