"What? Why are you asking me if I'm getting married?" Li Muge raised an eyebrow. "Young man, you wouldn't happen to have taken a liking to me, would you!"
"I was just asking." Chang Yan's pupils focused intently when he saw Li Muge.
"As for marriage, I've never been married, but I've already been married twice, and I have a lovely daughter."
"So, little brother, you shouldn't have any expectations of your sister."
"What, two? Where are they now?" Chang Yan's words became increasingly difficult to utter. He couldn't believe that Ye Luo already had a daughter.
No, before he came, he had clearly investigated Ye Luo. Ye Luo clearly had no children, was not married, let alone married.
Was Ye Luo lying to him?
Li Muge lowered his eyes: "I did marry two women, but they were not sincere towards me, so I divorced them."
She spoke frankly and openly; the setback she suffered with Yun Qi was enough to make her never dare to believe in love again.
"So that's how it is!" Changyan breathed a sigh of relief. Since she had divorced two husbands, it proved that Ye Luo was still single.
He didn't mind that Ye Luo had a daughter, but he felt a pang of heartache.
Even someone as powerful as Ye Luo suffers heartbreak; what kind of unforgettable pain must that man have inflicted on her?
Li Muge returned to the Red Mansion and handed Yang Shu's letter to Yi Tong. When Yi Tong saw the letter, his eyes flickered, and even his hands trembled.
"I don't want this, what should I do?" Heterochromia cried.
Li Muge sighed and simply sat down next to Yi Tong to comfort him: "Yi Tong, I know you're afraid that if you don't lock yourself up, you'll become a menace to the world in the future."
"But have you ever thought that Yang Shu's life is only a hundred years? We brought him here so you can keep him company."
"Some things, once missed, are truly missed."
"No, no." Tears streamed down her face. "Girl, you don't understand. I don't want my husband to know I'm a monster."
"If he knew that the woman he had spent every day with was an ugly, even repulsive, monster, he would never be able to accept it."
Li Muge put her hand on Hei Tong's shoulder: "If he truly loves you, he won't care about these things. Besides, he's lovesick so badly right now, I think if you don't see him, he'll definitely die in a few days."
"But you wouldn't say that if you saw my true form," said the man with heterochromia, covering his face.
Li Muge certainly knew what the true form of the heterochromatic eyes looked like: a lump of mud covered with eyes.
It's a bit creepy.
"It doesn't matter, heterochromia. As long as you maintain it well, Yang Shu will never see it."
"The main thing now is for Yang Shu to see you, otherwise Yang Shu will die."
After much persuasion, Hei Tong finally agreed.
When Li Muge and Chang Yan rushed back, Yang Shu was nowhere to be found.
It's as if they simply disappeared.
Those around Yang Shu looked puzzled when he was mentioned: "This Master Yang must have been captured by the River God."
"Yes." A butcher was busy butchering a pig's head, using a sharp cleaver to chop it in half.
"This Master Yang has probably gone mad. He's in dire straits himself, barely able to save himself, yet he dares to interfere with the river god's wedding. I reckon he's already been fed to the river god, and not even a bone fragment can be found."
Li Muge and Chang Yan exchanged a glance, both sensing the seriousness of the matter from each other's eyes.
