Mu Huan was enjoying his meal. It had been a long time since he had eaten so happily.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Your Excellency requests an audience."
Yes, the Lord Jun mentioned by the servants is none other than Jun Jingli, the man Arya had described as having "abandoned" Mu Huan for the princess. I heard he was the top scholar in the Southern You Kingdom this year, and had been chosen by the king to be his consort. It was a true story of rising to prominence.
"No!" Mu Yuntian regretted what he said. He knew how much his daughter liked this unfaithful man. He looked at Mu Huan cautiously, afraid that she would be angry and make trouble with him again.
As a result, Mu Huan didn't listen to their conversation at all. He just focused on eating his own food, and he was eating happily.
Mu Yuntian felt that no matter what, he still had to say something to Mu Huan, "My girl, Jun Jingli is here, do you still want to see him?" Although there was a hint of disappointment in his tone, after all, he was just like himself, a lovesick person.
"Him? Why do I have to see him?" Seriously, he disturbed her meal. She didn't care about Mu Huan before, but she really didn't want to see him now. He dragged her into this for no reason. She was furious.
"No?" Has his daughter finally come to her senses? Mu Yuntian was a little surprised, but mostly happy and satisfied. It's all right if you think it through, it's all right if you think it through!
"Go and tell him that my daughter is not someone who can be seen by just anyone. No!" Mu Yuntian said this with more confidence.
Jun Jingli is such an ungrateful person. Mu Huan gave him money so that he could take the national exam smoothly, but he quarreled with his family for him several times and even betrayed Mu Huan in the end.
"Respectfully!" The servant obeyed the order and went down the hall to persuade Jun Jingli to leave.
"My girl, have you really thought it through this time? You really won't care about that person anymore, right?" That person was still Jun Jingli, but Mu Yuntian didn't even want to mention his name now.
Although his daughter couldn't cultivate, she was the only legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was proficient in everything from women's clothing and crafts to music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. How could she not be worthy of that poor boy? The more Mu Yuntian thought about it, the angrier he became. How could people nowadays become so superficial?
"Dad, I want to rest." Yes, it was true that Mu Huan wanted to sleep after eating.
"Go, go. You've been outside for so long and suffered so much. Go and rest quickly!" Mu Yuntian almost wanted to watch Mu Huan fall asleep.
"Hmm!" In fact, Mu Huan just wanted to think about this series of strange things that happened alone. It couldn't be such a coincidence! There must be someone behind it, but she couldn't jump to conclusions about who it was.
"My daughter!" Mu Yuntian suddenly called Mu Huan.
"What's wrong, Dad?" Mu Huan turned around and looked at Mu Yuntian.
"It doesn't matter if you can't practice. I will protect my daughter. I don't think anyone dares to say a word." He is domineering, strong and protective, just like the old man in reality.
"I understand, Dad!" Mu Huan held back the tears that were about to flow.
Returning to the room, she found the furnishings there were exactly the same as her own. Mu Huan was shocked, thinking that the person behind this must have known her intimately, and it was terrifying!
His fingers tapped the tabletop, making a series of clattering sounds. Who was behind this? What was their purpose? Facing this world, which was no different from reality, Mu Huan felt a little lost.
"Exactly the same?" Mu Huan stood up suddenly. "No, there's one more person!" Jun Jingli, how could he suddenly appear? And in the guise of someone he had loved before, what on earth had happened?
"Headache!" Mu Huan rubbed her head. She had used up too much energy in the past two days and was so tired that she wanted to sleep! So she collapsed at the table.
The window was opened, and a cool breeze blew in. It wasn't cold, but it made Mu Huan curl up into a ball.
"Huan'er!" There was a sense of repression and restraint in the voice. The voice was low and hoarse. It was Liang Ci.
In reality, Liang Ci had been following Mu Huan since she left the small bamboo house. However, this wasn't the normal world; that person was always watching. Unable to expose Mu Huan to danger, Liang Ci could only speak harshly to her and ask her to leave on her own.
Gently touching the tips of Mu Huan's hair, a thousand years later, he, who had left his original body, finally saw this girl again, the unattainable girl in his life, the fate and the only warmth he wanted to hold on to desperately.
Ever since Hun Dun was born, he's been alone. No one taught him how to love, much less how to be loved. Thinking back to how he felt about Mu Huan before, he only regretted it. Sometimes, understanding comes too late. That's why, in the end, he didn't catch on!
"Hmm?" Mu Huan hummed softly in her dream! "Beautiful Master!" she murmured.
Liang Ci chuckled softly, but kept silent. Perhaps this was the calamity he was destined to endure, unavoidable, with nowhere to hide. He didn't want to hide, he only wanted this one person, to hold on to this forever.
Bending down, he gently kissed the ends of her hair with reverence. This was his most cherished little girl! "Grow up quickly!" At least she would be able to protect herself when he was not around.
He picked up Mu Huan and gently placed her on the bed. He tucked the quilt in for her because she liked to kick the quilt when she slept.
Leave, close the window, as if he had never been there.
Mu Huan turned over and slept soundly all night without any dreams.
"Miss!" Erya called out from outside the door. The young lady said that she didn't like anyone entering her room without permission.
"Hmm~" Mu Huan struggled to sit up. His voice was a little soft as he just stood up. "It's dawn so soon! Come in!"
After getting permission, Erya came in with a basin for washing her face. While wringing the cloth, she turned back to look at Mu Huan who was still sitting stupidly on the bed. "Miss, it's time to clean up!"
"Coming!" He casually put on his shoes, walked over and wiped his face, and instantly became much more sober.
"What kind of clothes do you want to wear today, young lady? Erya will bring it to you." After saying that, Erya began to mutter to herself again, "Today is the king's birthday. Young lady will accompany the prime minister to the palace, so she must dress beautifully!"
"Enter the palace?" A confrontation so soon? Well, we couldn't lose in this first encounter, at least we had to show our full strength. Although we didn't know who the enemy was yet, Mu Huan hung his head, feeling a little defeated!
"Miss, how about this red one?" Erya took out a very eye-catching red dress.
Mu Huan took it and held it in her hand. Isn't this the one she was wearing in the painting? Thinking of the painting, Mu Huan suddenly became a little angry. That man was simply going to piss her off to death.
She gritted her teeth, her hands unconsciously kneading the wide-sleeved red dress in her hands. Erya, watching from the side, was also terrified. Isn't this the young lady's favorite dress? Why did she feel like she was seeing an enemy this time?
"Miss..." Erya couldn't help but speak, trying to prevent Mu Huan from ruining the skirt. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to remake it, and by then it would be too late.
"Oh!" Realizing her own gaffe, Mu Huan came to her senses, "Erya, you go out first, I'll do it myself!" She didn't like having someone help her change clothes.
