Qian Manman has never been very close to her non-blood-related nephews, but she couldn't bear to watch the descendants of the Qian family lose their lives. She was anxious and angry for several days because of Qian Haochuan's murder lawsuit. She didn't know whether it was due to the anger or the worsening of the poison, but she was bedridden.

On the second day after receiving the news, Qian Chongguang's condition began to worsen. He had a high fever and coughed up blood.

Yan Muxi knew without asking that Grandpa's illness was caused by excessive worry.

After seeing off Doctor Lin, Jin Chun said worriedly, "The old man is old after all, and his condition can no longer be alleviated, which will shorten his lifespan."

"He's the one who's depressed, what can others do? We can't just pry open his chest and make him feel more at ease!" Yan Muxi's angry and complaining voice was loud enough to be heard in the room.

Someone in the house could indeed hear Qian Chongguang sighing, snatching the half-drunk bitter medicine soup from the servant, and drinking it all in one gulp.

He didn't want to make his granddaughter worry and wanted to get better quickly, but he couldn't control his thoughts and his body suffered as a result.

His granddaughter has had a miserable life. She has never had a few years of leisurely life since she was a child. He really doesn't want to make her unhappy anymore!

Jin Chun stayed in the front yard to take care of things. Yan Muxi was holding his breath and went back to Magnolia Garden alone.

As soon as she entered the room, Yin Xia asked anxiously, "Is the old man feeling better?"

Yan Muxi walked to the round table, picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water. He drank the water in the cup in one breath, and then said unhappily: "What's good about it? It's even worse than a few days ago!"

There were only the master and servant in the room. Yin Xia took the teacup from Yan Muxi's hand and said, "Miss, if you have any plans, you must inform me as soon as possible."

Yan Muxi glanced at her and regained his composure, "What plans can I make? Don't think too much."

Yin Xia could no longer suppress her anger, "Miss, please don't be so stubborn in front of me! I know you better than anyone else. You will never sit back and watch Madam Man and Master Haochuan get into trouble."

Yan Muxi sighed and laughed, "Yinxia, ​​you guessed wrong this time. I have no intention of interfering in Luodu's affairs."

"Really? Are you sure you are not fooling me?" Yin Xia frowned and didn't believe Yan Muxi's words at all.

"Why would I lie to you? I really don't intend to interfere in matters that I shouldn't interfere in, at least not now." Yan Muxi lowered her eyes and suppressed the bitter struggle in her eyes.

Cousin Haochuan started doing business when he was in his teens. He has always been good at seeking profit and avoiding harm. If his life and property are threatened, he will definitely give up everything without hesitation to protect himself.

Now she is involved in a murder lawsuit and the accident is known to everyone. Everything is enough to show that money cannot solve the problem. The news of her fake death has probably been exposed, and Yu Jinzhou is forcing her to show up.

But even if Yu Jinzhou threatened the lives of Qian's family and A'niang, she couldn't just show up and be controlled.

Firstly, she couldn't bear to leave An An and Kang Kang behind and become a caged bird. Secondly, she didn't want to become a burden for someone's climb up.

Yu Wantai has paid such a huge price and has finally climbed halfway up the mountain. She can't let him fall again because of her.

Call her selfish or cold-hearted, she has her own scale in her heart and knows very well who she wants to protect the most.

Yin Xia thought Yan Muxi was just being stubborn, but until May, when she saw that Yan Muxi still didn't take any action, she began to believe that she really intended to sit back and do nothing.

That day, Minghui sent another letter back. Seeing Yinxia looking embarrassed and hesitant, Yan Muxi sighed inwardly, "Another bad news?"

"Young Master Haochuan has been sentenced to beheading, and the execution will be held at Caishikou at the beginning of next month." Yin Xia said truthfully.

Yan Muxi sneered, "Yu Jinzhou's patience is far inferior to that of Emperor Yuan Jing. He can't even wait until the autumn."

Yin Xia thought about it and tried to test it, "Miss, do you think the master will help save Master Haochuan?"

Based on her understanding of her own young lady, she still believed that the young lady could not watch her relatives die and remain indifferent. She must have her own considerations for not interfering casually.

“Maybe!”

Yan Muxi couldn't guess whether Yan Yongchen would help Qian Haochuan. She only hoped that Yan Yongchen's heart was softer than she imagined and that he would save Qian Haochuan's life.

What Yan Muxi didn't expect was that Yan Yongchen did want to save Qian Haochuan, but he wanted to use her to do it.

At midnight, an unexpected guest arrived on the island, Yan Yongchen's personal attendant, Yan Da.

The City Lord's Mansion has several layers of defense, and Yan Da was discovered when he broke into the inner courtyard. Shunzi, Dongyu, Lichun, Jingzhe, and the two guards beside Qian Chongguang, the six people with the highest kung fu skills in all of Hua Island, could barely fight Yan Da to a draw, which shows how advanced his kung fu is.

For fear of disturbing the children, Yan Muxi stopped the competition among the masters in time and invited Yan Da to the main hall of the outer courtyard to talk.

Although they had known each other for twenty years, they were not familiar with each other and there was no need for politeness. Yan Muxi asked directly, "Did your father ask you to come and look for me?"

"Master, please ask the second young lady to return to Luodu." Yan Da obviously went straight to the point.

Yan Muxi was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Can I choose not to reply?"

Yan Da seemed to have expected her to ask this question. "The master said that the second young lady can consider whether to return to Luodu." He paused and continued, "The Li family, the Su family, the Xue family, and even the dog emperor have all received their due retribution. In the current situation, the master can also choose to withdraw and find a paradise to live a few years of leisure."

Yan Muxi didn't understand what Yan Da meant by this for a moment. After thinking for a long time, he opened his eyes wide in surprise, "So, father..."

"That's right, it's just what the Second Miss thought." Yan Da placed a palm-sized white porcelain bottle and a letter on the table. "I have delivered the message. It is up to you to decide what to do next."

When Yan Muxi picked up the letter on the table and was about to read it, Yan Da suddenly turned around and said, "Thank you!"

"Thank me for what?" Yan Muxi asked, then she remembered that Aunt Ming once said that Yuechan and Yan Da had a close relationship, and Yan Da should be thanking her for saving Yuechan.

"It's just a little effort, no need to be polite."

Yan Da turned around and bowed to Yan Muxi, saying thank you. "I'm not being polite. I should thank the Second Miss. I will need your help in the future."

While Yan Muxi was still pondering the intention behind Yan's words, he had already disappeared from the spot.

The next day, when Yuechan brought Yan Murou outside the City Lord's Mansion, she finally understood what Yan meant by his words of helping her in the future.

After Yuechan recovered from her injuries, she left the island. A year later, she came back and brought her daughter Yan Muruo to Hua Island.
