After saying these words, Lin Qiu strode away without pausing or looking back at Mu Qingcheng, who was left behind.
Did you never think of plotting against her?
It has to be said that Lin Qiu's words comforted Mu Qingcheng. A faint smile bloomed on her lips, and the question that had been troubling her heart finally received a satisfactory answer.

Another day passed in the blink of an eye. When the news of Ming Beiya's arrival reached Mo Shisheng's ears, she looked at him with an expression of understanding, as if she had already guessed that Ming Beiya would come, and was not too surprised.
When Lingxue and Mu Qingcheng learned that Ming Beiya was coming to see Mo Shisheng, the two stood on the same side and resolutely refused to let Mo Shisheng see him.
"Shi Sheng! Did you hear what I said?"
When Lingxue emphasized this to Mo Shisheng for the third time, her tone became somewhat urgent, "He's not the Ming Beiya you know anymore. Seeing him again is pointless, isn't it?"
"..."
However, Lingxue's repeated emphasis only earned her a lazy glance from Mo Shisheng, and then nothing more.
"Xiao Jiu, are you deliberately making us anxious?"
Mu Qingcheng frowned slightly, a rare seriousness appearing on her face. Her gaze was fixed on Mo Shisheng. "Lingxue is right. Ming Beiya doesn't even remember you anymore. Why do you still want to see him?"
"..."
Finally, after Mu Qingcheng and Ling Xue's persistent efforts, Mo Shisheng spoke softly, "Didn't you notice that Qingluan didn't try to persuade me?"
"she……"
Lingxue was about to say something when she suddenly stopped and didn't continue.
Hearing Mo Shisheng's words, Mu Qingcheng glanced at Qingluan but didn't say anything. Instead, she turned her gaze back to Mo Shisheng, waiting for her to continue.
"Do you all think that Qingluan is Ming Beiya's person, which is why she won't stop me?"
Mo Shisheng raised an eyebrow, her gaze shifting between Ling Xue and Mu Qingcheng. "Is that so?"
"..."
Indeed, that was Lingxue's initial thought, but she had seen Qingluan's feelings for Mo Shisheng, so she stopped herself when she was about to speak and did not continue.
Seeing that Lingxue did not answer, Mo Shisheng continued, "It is inevitable that Ming Beiya will come, but this time it is because of Qingluan. I want to keep Qingluan by my side, and Ming Beiya will definitely come to ask for her."
"I'm afraid his heart isn't with Qingluan at all, but with someone else."
Lingxue pouted slightly, "Shisheng, I still don't want you to see that Ming Beiya. He's really gone too far."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Mo Shisheng simply smiled faintly and did not continue the conversation. Instead, she raised her hand to rub her temples and said, "He should be here soon."
"A little wine!!"
"Shi Sheng!!"
"Alright, you two, I've explained why I absolutely had to see him, so please stop trying to stop me."
Mo Shisheng glanced at Ling Xue and Mu Qingcheng with a faint smile in his eyes.
Deep down, she had her own selfish motives. Her thirty days were dwindling, and she didn't know if she could make it to that day, or even what she would become on that day. The Bei Ya within her was right: if she continued to hesitate, all the people closest to her would be implicated…
