After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Chapter 426: Tao is ruthless but also full of affection (8)

Since returning from Prince Duan Ning's Mansion, Su Yinyue had spent a few very comfortable days. The masters of the Su family did not dare to appear in front of her. She no longer had to go to school or learn rules. She practiced every day.

However, she still didn't want to stay in the Su Mansion. If she wasn't at the critical moment of breaking through the fifth level of Qi Refining, she would have gone back to the manor directly.

Unexpectedly, trouble came again one day. Someone sent an official matchmaker to propose marriage, and the person proposed was Su Yinyue.

The Su family was shocked. They thought it was someone from the Lu family who came to propose marriage. However, logically, even if they wanted to propose marriage, they should have revealed it in advance. How could it be so sudden?

In view of the witchcraft-like methods Su Yinyue had witnessed a few days ago, Old Master Su was thinking about how to refuse tactfully. Unexpectedly, the matchmaker said that she was asking Li Mu, the third master of Prince Duanning's Mansion, to marry Su Yinyue, the fourth lady of your family.

The Su family members were stunned at the time. The eldest lady carefully confirmed: "Are you sent by Prince Duan Ning's Mansion to propose marriage?"

"Of course, Madam Su, the status of Prince Duanning's Mansion is such a great thing! The fourth young lady of your family has won the favor of Princess Duanning and married into the palace. Maybe she will become the Crown Prince's Consort in the future..." said the matchmaker with a smile on her face.

She originally thought that the Su family would agree without hesitation, but she didn't expect that the Su family members present looked gloomy.

Su Yinxue and Su Yinhua, who were watching from the side, couldn't help but show a bit of jealousy on their faces. They both didn't expect that Su Yinyue really married into a rich family. If they had saved Li Mu that day, would this marriage have fallen on them?

However, when Su Yinyue walked into the main hall, both of them hid in the corner in fear, with their heads down, not daring to show any dissatisfaction to the person in front of them.

"What's the matter with calling me here?" Su Yinyue looked around at everyone and frowned slightly.

"Yinyue, this is Matchmaker Wang. She's here on behalf of Prince Duanning's Mansion to propose to the Su family. She wants to marry you..." Old Master Su said with a flattering smile.

Su Yinyue raised her eyebrows and looked at the matchmaker: "Li Mu wants to marry me?"

The matchmaker just felt that the atmosphere in the Su family was very weird. Aren't marriages decided by the elders? Why would they need to seek the opinions of the younger generation?

But she still nodded and answered Su Yinyue's words with a smile: "...The fourth young lady is indeed a stunning beauty. No wonder she caught the princess's eye. Her appearance and temperament are a perfect match for the third master..."

Although the Su family really wanted to agree to this marriage, they did not dare to make the decision for Su Yinyue at the moment. Su Yinyue was silent for a while, neither refusing nor agreeing.

That night, Su Yinyue quietly left the Su Mansion alone and came to Li Mu's residence in the Prince Duanning's Mansion.

Li Mu was sitting alone by the window in the room, holding a book in his hands, but his head was looking at the bright moon hanging high outside the window, his face was dazed, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Su Yinyue appeared in front of him silently, looked him over, and said, "Li Mu."

Hearing this, Li Mu came back to his senses. He looked at Su Yinyue, with some ambiguous meaning in his eyes, but his expression did not show the slightest surprise.

"You came to me to ask why I proposed to you?"

Su Yinyue paused in her heart and said, "That's right, we only met once. The Su family is not well-off, so why did they choose me?"

Su Yinyue could see that Princess Duan Ning favored those young ladies from aristocratic families, but in the end she asked her to marry her for her son. That could only be because she saved him. "I saved you just because I'm a doctor. I would have saved you even if you were an ordinary person. I don't need you to repay me with marriage."

Li Mu glanced at her steadily, and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "My legs are crippled, and I have no intention of getting married, but my mother will definitely find a wife for me, so I will naturally choose someone I like. As for family background, I don't care."

"Don't you want to marry me?"

"No." Su Yinyue said directly without any hesitation, "If you hadn't sent someone to propose marriage today, I would have left the capital in a few days. I don't want my life to be trapped in this small backyard. I hope to travel around the world and practice medicine to save people. Besides... I already have someone I like. If I want to get married, I want to marry the person I like."

Li Mu felt a little depressed after hearing her words. He smiled bitterly, then pretended not to care and asked tentatively, "Who do you like?"

Su Yinyue did not say An Jueran's name, but suddenly changed the subject and said, "However, I can agree to marry you."

Li Mu was stunned and looked at her.

"I am a doctor. I can pretend to marry you. After the wedding, I will treat your legs. When your legs are healed, I will leave the capital. At that time, you can use the reason of your wife's death to cover up my departure..."

"So...you married me because you wanted to cure my leg disease?"

Su Yinyue nodded: "Of course it's also for the Su family."

After all, the Su family raised her, so she could naturally leave after rejecting Prince Duanning's Mansion. However, the Su family still had to stay in the capital. If they offended Prince Duanning's Mansion, the Su family would not have an easy life.

"What do you think of this proposal?" Su Yinyue felt that as long as Li Mu was not stupid, he would not refuse.

Sure enough, Li Mu agreed without much thought. He did not ask why Su Yinyue was so confident that she could cure his leg disease. He just smiled and invited her to sit down and have a cup of tea with him.

Su Yinyue always felt that the eyes of the people in front of her were very strange, and sometimes it was as if they were looking at an old friend through her.

On the second day after Su Yinyue returned to the Su Mansion, the matchmaker came to her door again, and this time she accepted the offer directly.

The Su family was very surprised, but they were more happy. Although this marriage was not what they had expected, in the eyes of outsiders, Su Yinyue was also a member of the Su family. If Su Yinyue married into Prince Duanning's Mansion, they would be climbing up the ladder of the Prince Duanning's Mansion.

A month later, Su Yinyue, wearing a red wedding dress and supported by Xiaohong, walked into the Prince Duanning's Mansion...

Li Mu had a disease in his legs and could not ride a horse to welcome his bride. He came to the main hall of the wedding hall, sat in a wheelchair, and looked at Su Yinyue who was walking towards him step by step.

At this moment, the bustling sounds around him seemed to fade away. His eyes were filled with inexplicable starlight as he stared blankly at the person in front of him...

Once upon a time, he seemed to be waiting for someone with such joy and anticipation!

"Worship heaven and earth."

"Two thanks to the high hall."

"Husband and wife bow to each other."

At this moment, he kind of hoped that this illusion could last a little longer...

Half a year later, Li Mu's leg disease was cured under Su Yinyue's treatment and he could walk freely. Of course, ordinary medical skills could not cure it. Su Yinyue used the magic of Mulberry Tree to treat him.

"Today is the Lantern Festival, why don't we go see the lanterns together." After dinner, Li Mu invited Su Yinyue to go out.

Su Yinyue hesitated for a moment and said, "I am now seriously ill and bedridden. If I go out, will it be..."

"We won't go to crowded places, just wear your veil."

Su Yinyue thought that she would have to say goodbye to the person in front of her in a few days. Over the past few days, she also regarded Li Mu as a friend, so she no longer refused.

The two of them admired the lanterns along the way and came to a quiet river. Li Mu bought a lotus lantern and handed it to the person in front of him, saying with a smile: "I see other women holding lanterns to make wishes, why don't you make a wish and put it in the river."

Su Yinyue smiled slightly, took the lantern, wrote the eight words: "Prosperous and peaceful times, peace and safety." Then she squatted down and put it into the river.

"Are you leaving?" Li Mu asked.

Su Yinyue was stunned by his sudden question, then nodded and said, "I was just about to tell you, I will be leaving in a few days, then you can directly announce to the public that I have passed away, and the Su family will also say the same."

"...Can you stay for me?" Li Mu stared at her without blinking, his eyes deep.

Su Yinyue was silent for a moment, shook her head, and was about to say something when Li Mu leaned over and kissed her...

Just as it was about to touch her lips, a sword light came "whoosh" at her...

"Be careful!" Su Yinyue quickly pushed away the person opposite her.

The sword light brushed past Li Mu's shoulder and blood splattered on his face.

"An Jueran!" Su Yinyue noticed the person coming and her face was full of surprise, "Why are you here?"

When she saw that Li Mu was injured, she frowned slightly, stood between the two of them, and said, "An Jueran, Li Mu is my friend, please don't hurt him."

An Jueran's face was cold. When he thought of the scene he had just seen, the spiritual power in his body instantly became chaotic and ran wildly throughout his body. Red light flashed in his eyes.

"The real culprit has appeared!" Li Mu said this inexplicably.

"What are you talking about?" Su Yinyue looked at Li Mu in confusion.

But before Li Mu could open his mouth, An Jueran teleported in front of Su Yinyue, took her hand and was about to leave without saying a word.

Li Mu's face revealed the hostility that he had been hiding in front of Su Yinyue. He rushed forward to stop the two from leaving. An Jueran held Su Yinyue's arm with one hand and waved his sleeve with the other hand, throwing Li Mu directly to an open space not far away...

Li Mu spat out a large mouthful of blood and passed out.

"An Jueran, don't!" Su Yinyue wanted to stop him, but was held in place by him.

An Jueran glanced at the unconscious Li Mu, then grabbed Su Yinyue's waist and flew away...
