Mu Qingcheng's eyes were bloodshot, tears glistening in them. Lin Qiu had been there for her during her most difficult times. Lin Qiu had been by her side when she contemplated suicide. It was Lin Qiu who had helped her through the lowest point of her life. And now, the one who hurt her, the one who lied to her, Mu Qingcheng, was still Lin Qiu!
"..."
Seeing the tears in Mu Qingcheng's eyes, Lin Qiu frowned slightly, his expression seeming to soften. "Qingcheng..."
"You were there for me when I was contemplating suicide. Since you pulled me back from the brink, why are you pushing me down now? You made me afraid of death, and now I desperately want to die!"
Mu Qingcheng's last words were a shout, and as the words fell, tears welled up in her eyes, "Linqiu, how did things turn out like this between you and me?"
"..."
Hearing Mu Qingcheng's question, Lin Qiu's brows furrowed tightly and did not relax.
"Linqiu, I'll just ask you one question: weren't you plotting against me the whole time you were saving me?"
This matter is a knot in Mu Qingcheng's heart. If it is not resolved, she will continue to care about it, and it will grow bigger and bigger like a snowball.
Just as Lin Qiu was about to reply, Shi Youmi walked out of the palace.
After two days of applying medicine, her eyes were able to see some things up close more clearly.
However, she recognized Lin Qiu's scent and knew he was standing outside without even looking. At the same time, she also smelled Mu Qingcheng's scent, which was completely unfamiliar to her.
A hint of doubt flashed in Shi Youmi's eyes. She walked to Lin Qiu's side and asked in a low voice, "Who is this?"
"..."
Lin Qiu was already a little nervous when Shi Youmi suddenly appeared. When Shi Youmi asked Mu Qingcheng a question, Lin Qiu gave Mu Qingcheng a look that signaled her to leave.
However, Mu Qingcheng was already extremely agitated at the moment and couldn't pay any attention to the glances Lin Qiu was giving her.
"Linqiu?"
After not receiving a reply from Lin Qiu for a while, Shi Youmi frowned slightly and asked in confusion.
"He is my friend."
Finally, left with no other choice, Lin Qiu had to answer. He walked up to Mu Qingcheng and hugged her tightly, saying, "She's lost. I'll take her out."
After saying that, Lin Qiu carried Mu Qingcheng away, half dragging and half carrying her, leaving Shi Youmi behind.
Although Shi Youmi felt strange, she could not linger because she could not see Mu Qingcheng's appearance clearly. After hearing Lin Qiu leave with his people, she could only turn around and walk into the palace.
She had to continue applying the medicine today. Each application was an experience so painful she couldn't speak. However, all of this was thanks to Mo Shisheng. When she had the chance, she would definitely tear Mo Shisheng to pieces to vent her hatred!
On the other side, when Mu Qingcheng was forced to leave by Lin Qiu, she was still struggling, but no matter how she struggled, she was no match for Lin Qiu.
Finally, Mu Qingcheng roared angrily, "Linqiu, let go of me! What's our relationship? What right do you have to touch me!"
"..."
Upon hearing Mu Qingcheng's words, Lin Qiu suddenly released his grip. After gently placing Mu Qingcheng on the ground, he took two steps back.
Seeing Linqiu's actions, Mu Qingcheng felt even more distressed. "Linqiu, are you trying to distance yourself from me?"
You're overthinking it.
Lin Qiu spoke calmly, turned and walked in the other direction, then stopped after a few steps. "I saved you simply because I didn't want you to die. I didn't intend to scheme against you at that time."
