Seeing Mu Feng running headlong into the alley, Mu Jingfeng suddenly understood something.
It turns out that Mu Feng had been harboring such thoughts all along. For so many years, he really thought it was because of his duty. He never expected that there would be such a connection.
Mu Qingyun watched Mu Feng go inside before turning her gaze to Mu Jingfeng, a smile playing on her lips. "The people around you seem to have ulterior motives."
Mu Jingfeng's expression was not good. He glanced in the direction Mu Feng had left, thought for a moment, and then turned around and left. "Come back with me. Your identification has been issued."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun raised an eyebrow but still followed.
Back in the palace, Mu Jingfeng didn't say a word, but simply picked up a small magnetic card that had just been delivered from the table and handed it over.
"What are your thoughts?" she asked with interest, stroking the magnetic card.
"Mu Feng is a good person. Xue Yao won't suffer if she's with him," Mu Jingfeng replied calmly, responding to her question.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyun smiled and said, "Okay."
“She’s married now, she won’t be in the palace anymore, can you please stop?” Mu Jingfeng thought for a moment, his tone still carrying a hint of pleading.
“I can stop, but I demand an apology from her, a sincere one. I'll choose the place and time.” She looked at Mu Jingfeng and said slowly, her tone leaving no room for argument.
As expected, Mu Jingfeng fell silent after hearing her words, and after a long while, he spoke again: "It's not an easy thing."
"That's your problem." Mu Qingyun put away the small magnetic card in her hand and turned to leave.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
The housekeeper strode in, looking anxious, but when he noticed she was still there, he hesitated and didn't dare to continue.
"Speak quickly." Mu Jingfeng frowned, quite impatient with the butler's stammering.
“His Highness and Mu Feng are both seriously injured. His Highness keeps calling your name. The doctor thinks you should go and see him.” The butler said, glancing at her cautiously.
Upon hearing this, Mu Jingfeng glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, then left after saying an apology.
Mu Qingyun wasn't too sad, as this was something she had expected.
After watching Mu Jingfeng leave, she stood up and turned to leave as well.
"Your Highness..."
The housekeeper watched her leave, then glanced in the direction Mu Jingfeng had gone, and sighed helplessly.
The father and daughter always parted on bad terms for various reasons, and it was unclear whether it was fate or something else.
...
Mu Qingyun hailed a taxi and went straight to the registration office.
I glanced at the time; it was still plenty of time.
I should have come later.
She randomly picked a coffee shop and sat down to wait.
Outside, all was calm and still, so she quietly looked at the coffee on the table.
When she was quiet, it was easy for her mind to wander. Suddenly, she thought of something.
What would happen if the original owner really did travel to her world because of this?
Reflecting on the situation of that era, although men were superior to women, her status was not low. Even when her younger brother took over, she was still second only to the emperor and above all others.
After thinking about things for a while, the clock struck midnight, and it was already evening.
She was sitting in a spot that offered a clear view of the registration office entrance, but despite the constant flow of people, she never spotted Su Qiluo.
Time flew by, and she checked the time; it was already 8:30. But at the registration desk, she couldn't even see Su Qiluo's shadow.
Unable to wait any longer, she took out the communicator from her sleeve, but after dialing for a long time, she only heard a busy signal.
Unable to connect.
Could it be that they suddenly changed their minds?
That shouldn't be the case. He was the one who brought it up first. Even if he suddenly changed his mind, he should have told her.
She took out the small magnetic card from the storage bag, held it in her hand and looked at it carefully. She then looked up at the entrance of the registration office. It was almost nine o'clock, but Su Qiluo still hadn't arrived.
She frowned, left the coffee shop, and walked to the registration desk.
I watched as couples walked in with smiles on their faces, and then came out a short while later, each holding two small red certificates.
"bite--"
It's nine o'clock.
She fiddled with the vines on her wrist while dialing her communicator.
9:50.
She moved her legs, which had become stiff from standing, and stared at the clock on the wall in silence for a long time.
The registration desk door opened, and a woman came out carrying a bottle of water.
"Little girl, are you still going in?"
The woman smiled at her and handed her the water, saying, "It's unopened. I specially got it for you from the greenhouse; it's hot."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun smiled in response, raised her hand to take the water from the woman's hand, and warmed her cold hands.
"Thank you, I'm waiting for someone."
She took a sip of water and asked, "Is it almost closing time?"
"Hmm, I see you've been waiting for a long time. Why don't you go home first, have a heart-to-heart talk with your parents, and then make a decision?" The woman spoke gently. "Or perhaps something has happened to your boyfriend?"
Mu Qingyun nodded. "I also think he must have run into some trouble. It's okay, I'll wait a little longer."
Hearing this, the woman hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did you drive here?"
"No."
The woman frowned. "It's almost ten o'clock. It's really dangerous for a girl to wait here alone at night."
As she spoke, she turned her head and looked around. "I'll be off work in ten minutes. Why don't you wait for me to finish get off work, and I'll drive you home?"
The woman looked at her with worry in her eyes. Although she was wearing a mask, it was the middle of the night, and she could easily be targeted by bad people.
"No need, you should go home first." Mu Qingyun smiled and took off the mask she was wearing.
Her face was very distinctive. After the woman saw her face clearly, the look of shock on her face lingered for a long time. "You are..."
"Mm." Mu Qingyun nodded.
"Look at me, what are you worrying about? With your strength, Your Highness, who would dare to do anything to you?" the woman said awkwardly. She really was worrying too much.
"No, thank you for your kindness," she replied softly. She was very grateful to the woman. Many people passing by cast curious glances at her, but no one came up to her to offer a word of concern.
"Well, if I may ask a question, please don't find me annoying," the woman asked tentatively. Seeing that there was no particular annoyance on her face, she then asked with relief, "Are you waiting for General Su?"
"Um."
“Then he must have been held up by something. General Su does have a lot of things to do.” The woman immediately defended Su Qiluo. “He can come tomorrow too. Our registration office is open from nine in the morning to ten at night every day.”
Mu Qingyun took another sip of water. "Okay, save me a table for 9 pm tomorrow."
