The luster that had finally been stained in the eyes faded instantly after seeing the person coming.

"Grandma, where's Xinxin?" He asked.

Mrs. Mu walked up to him and sat down, and said: "Xinxin is in the old house, I told her not to come to the hospital to disturb you."

"I said, I want to see her."

His face was instantly covered with anger: "Grandma, is she going with Ah Chen? Isn't she?"

"Really no, grandma didn't lie to you, she is really in the old house."

Afraid that he would get excited, Mrs. Mu patted the back of his hand and said, "Grandma met her just now and asked her if she wanted to marry you."

"marry?"

Mu Jinnian frowned: "Who said I'm going to get married?"

"Didn't you yourself always want to marry her?"

"My legs are not good, how can I get married?"

Mu Jinnian shook his head, and said to himself: "No, Xinxin will definitely dislike me. I can't marry her now."

"But I want to see her, and I want to see her now."

"Jinnian, I'll come to see you after I let her rest, can you bear with it?"

Mu Jinnian stopped talking.

Seeing his almost morbid sense of dependence, Mrs. Mu's heart ached like a twist.

Mrs. Mu was worried about whether he had a mental problem, and she asked the doctor in charge, and the doctor said that he was not mentally ill, but purely psychological.

He couldn't leave Shen Xin psychologically.

But Shen Xin was not that easy to arrange, and there was nothing she could do to him for a while.

"Jinnian, Shen Xin is actually not that good, she..."

Knowing that it was difficult, Mrs. Mu still tried to persuade him.

As a result, she was only halfway through when Mu Jinnian interrupted her and said, "I don't know if Shen Xin is doing well, I just know that I won't see her, and I feel very panicked."

"..."

Mrs. Mu and Sister Jun looked at each other and shut up.

It seems that the doctor is right, he is a mental illness.

Mrs. Mu left the ward and came to the dean's office.

The dean saw that her expression was not right, so he hurriedly said: "Madam, the young master's legs..."

"I think Jinnian's mental problems are more serious now." Mrs. Mu interrupted him, "Will Dean Zhang see a doctor?"

Dean Zhang was dumbfounded by her question, and then said cautiously: "Old Madam, I think Eldest Young Master is quite calm."

"That's because I lied to him that Miss Shen is resting in the old house."

Mrs. Mu said helplessly, "Dean Zhang, arrange a psychiatrist for him."

Dean Zhang repeatedly said hello.

And the psychiatrist was called in immediately.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the psychiatrist opened his mouth, Mu Jinnian discovered his purpose.

Mu Jinnian broke out in anger for the first time after the fall and threw the psychiatrist out.

...

The night gradually deepened.

The temperature inside the ancestral hall gradually cooled down, Shen Xin sat in the corner and rubbed her arms with both hands.

Since she was locked in at noon, she has neither eaten nor drank water.

It would make her shiver again.

Mrs. Mu doesn't really intend to subdue her in this way, does she?

How long should we lock her up?

I don't know how Mu Jinnian is doing now, whether he will collapse after knowing that his leg can't be healed.

She longed to see him, if only out of caring.

Just as she was thinking wildly, a voice behind her suddenly made her scalp tingle.

There are mice!

She screamed in fright and stood up from the corner, watching a few mice slip past her.

She has been afraid of mice since she was a child.

She rushed to the door and slapped the door panel while screaming: "Is there anyone? Open the door! Open the door and let me out!"

It was quiet outside the door, without a trace of movement.

Although the mouse was so frightened by her, it quickly hid itself, but she was still trembling with fear.

She leaned against the door and looked at the dark ancestral hall in front of her.

There was not only the figure of the mouse in her mind, but also what Sister Jun said to her at noon today.

Back then, a suitor of Mu Xijinnian was imprisoned here and buried underground.

No, she doesn't believe it.

She shook her head, trying to force these horrible images out of her mind.

But before she could calm down, the mouse's cry appeared again.

She even felt something crawl over her feet.

It's a mouse!

"Help! Help!"

At this moment, she was so frightened that she didn't even have the strength to knock on the door, her legs gave way and she fell to the ground.

Apart from calling for help, she didn't know what else to do.

Finally, there were hurried footsteps approaching outside the door.

The thick red door was also pushed open the next moment.

The light from outside shone in, just covering her body, reflecting the tears in her eyes very clearly.

She stopped crying, and looked at the man standing against the light in front of her with tears.

It's still him.

Every time when she was about to despair, he would appear suddenly.

So how could she agree to Mrs. Mu's request to hurt him?

Without too many words, the man stepped forward, bent down, picked her up from the ground, and hugged her into his arms.

"Sorry, I'm late."

He stroked her hair distressedly and said, "I searched for many places, and finally found here."

Shen Xin suddenly cried out with a 'wow'.

While crying, he said, "There are mice! Mu Xichen, you have mice in your house!"

Mu Xichen was a little helpless.

There's nothing scary about rats.

Shouldn't she be afraid of death?Why are you afraid of that harmless mouse?

"Don't be afraid, I will take you out of here."

He looked down at her little face covered with tears and said, "Don't cry yet."

Shen Xin really stopped crying.

Looking at him, I feel very at ease in my heart, and I am no longer afraid.

It was just less than two seconds after she felt at ease, she felt even more frightened.

Mu Xichen came here secretly to save her. Mrs. Mu would kill him when she found out, right?
