“Suyi…” Mu Ling called out sadly.

Suyi paused. “The reminder was not for your sake. I only hate you and Qing Yan in the Mu family! I don’t want the Mu family that was set up so hard by the old master to be ruined. I also don’t want my brother-in-law who has treated me well to get hurt… However, Nan Xian had no affection toward anyone. If you push him too hard, he could do anything.”

She smirked with pride in her eyes.

After all, Nan Xian was her son. She knew his character well.

“By then, don’t expect me to stop him!”

Mu Ling’s face darkened. “Nan Xian wants to destroy the Mu family. I think… he doesn’t have this ability yet.”

Suyi smiled lightly. “You know Nan Xian’s talent the most. How many people have you sent over the past ten years? Those people have witnessed his growth. The Mu family… will be stomped under his feet sooner or later!”

Up until now, Suyi still could not figure out the extent of Nan Xian’s strength. However, she understood that the Mu family would be crushed under his feet sooner or later!

She just hoped that Mu Ling would not ruin the old master’s efforts.

“He is my son!” Mu Ling was so furious. “How dare he does this?”

Suyi smiled ironically. “Nan Xian doesn’t accept you. You will never be his father. Don’t blame me for not warning you. If you don’t want to see bloodshed in Tian Shen Manor and those innocent girls to die under the sword, don’t find him any wife or concubine.”

“…” Mu Ling stopped breathing for a moment. “That Feng Ruqing! Who does she think she is? Furthermore, is she capable of killing those girls in Tian Shen Manor?”

“Qing’er is so gentle and kind. She wouldn’t do such things. I’m talking about Nan Xian…” Suyi looked up. In the breeze, her white clothes were light and picturesque. “My son… I know him better than anyone. He dares to do anything if you pushed him too much!”

Mu Ling had not seen Nan Xian for a long time. Even though he knew that Nan Xian was a little unfriendly now, he could not figure out what Nan Xian’s temperament had become.

Thus, he was silent for a while before he asked. “Then why don’t you stop him?”

Suyi turned back, indifferently. She glanced at Mu Ling’s dark face.

“Nan Xian is not as half-hearted as his biological father. His devotion to Qing’er is whole-hearted. Why should I stop him from protecting her? On the contrary, if he did, I would think that he has done a good job.”

Suyi was married to a bad husband—Mu Ling.

Nevertheless, Suyi had always believed that there would always be someone in this world who would treat her wholeheartedly.

Mu Ling was shocked.

Suyi had changed greatly and become more vicious since she left home.

Besides…

Where did she see Feng Ruqing’s tenderness and gentleness?

Was Suyi blind?

How could Feng Ruqing be kind and gentle? Ridiculous!

“Suyi…”

“Can you leave now?”

Suyi spoke firmly. She was apparently reluctant to continue talking to Mu Ling.

She initially wanted him to get out. However, she still used the word ‘leave’ instead of ‘get out’ due to her status.

“You want to fight me?” Mu Ling’s face darkened. He stared at Suyi’s pretty face in disbelief.

“Yes,” Suyi answered indifferently and walked slowly toward Mu Ling.

Mu Ling took a deep breath. He felt distressed.

“Okay, I’ll leave! Suyi, I thought you would understand my heart after all these years. But in the end, you still don’t repent.”

He had talked nicely and begged her to go back. What else did she want? Not enough trouble yet?

However, Mu Ling could not bear to do anything to Suyi after all. Hence, he could only glance at Suyi sadly. Then, he turned and left.
