Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Li Wenyu suddenly looked at Xiao Se and said in a gloomy voice: "Xiao Se, go and prepare the carriage, we will send Miss Qin back home."

Xiao Se took the order and went there immediately.

Xiao Tao was left standing there, thinking more and more that something was wrong. What they had just heard was of great importance. After thinking it over again and again, she mustered up her courage and suddenly knelt down: "Your Highness, what the young lady said just now was all drunken talk, please don't take it seriously."

Li Wenyu said, "Drunk talk? Do you think your young lady was just drunken talk? Are you really unaware? Do you know what the consequences would be if she said this in front of outsiders and was heard by others?"

There was no emotion in her words, and Xiao Tao became even more frightened. She prostrated herself on the ground and dared not look up: "I beg Your Highness to let my young lady go. She has been living a very hard life. Only the general truly has good things for her. The young lady has no other ideas." She kowtowed hard as she spoke.

It was quiet for a long time. Li Wenyu showed no emotion. After a long silence, he stood up and carried Mu Chu down the mountain.

He turned around and said to Xiao Tao: "Get up. I will remember your loyalty to the master and take good care of your young lady. I won't tell anyone."

Xiaotao got up and followed behind him.

Walking down the mountain, Xiao Se had already prepared a carriage and was waiting for him on the mountainside.

Li Wenyu carried Mu Chu into the carriage, and Xiao Tao followed behind.

In the carriage, Li Wenyu looked at Mu Chu with her eyes closed, his eyes full of tenderness. He reached out to wipe away the tears that slipped from the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "Silly girl, I will make your wish come true."

After sending Mu Chu to Qin's residence, Wang Xing and Nanny Sang came out to pick her up. Xiao Tao asked Wang Xing: "Where is the young master? Why didn't he come out to pick up the young lady? Is he angry with the young lady?"

Wang Xing shook his head, not knowing what to say. Seeing this, Nanny Sang continued, "Xiao Tao, how could the young master be angry with the young lady? He just had something to do and he told me to take good care of the young lady before he left."

Xiao Tao replied: "I'm glad you're not angry. Please help me, Madam Sang, to take care of the young lady."

Aunt Sang seemed to be very pleased and said with a smile: "These are what I should do."

After they cleaned up Mu Chu, Xiao Tao gave him some sobering soup and let him go to sleep.

After a while, Qin Yuanyi came over in a hurry. Before Xiaotao could greet him, Qin Yuanyi asked her, "How is Chu'er?"

Xiao Tao lowered her head and replied: "She is still sleeping soundly. I can't wake her up. She drank too much."

Qin Yuanyi went in and sat beside the bed, and told Xiaotao: "Xiaotao, you go out first and close the door."

Xiao Tao hesitated for a moment, but turned around and went out to close the door.

After Xiaotao went out, Qin Yuanyi looked at Mu Chu lying on the bed, staring at her, his voice low and hoarse, as heavy as a rock, as if he had been suppressed for a long time: "Chu'er, I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings, I just wanted to protect you, I, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

In his dream, Mu Chu heard Qin Yuanyi's voice, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously, his eyelashes moved slightly, and he made a soft sound: "Please let me stay by your side, please don't leave me."

Qin Yuanyi knew that she was talking drunkenly, but when he heard her say this, his heart seemed to stop beating and he said in a trembling voice: "Okay, I will never leave you."

Mu Chu seemed to have heard it, and his frown slowly relaxed, replaced by a faint smile.

Qin Yuanyi looked at her in a daze. It seemed that he really had to take this step. He could no longer retreat unscathed.

When Mu Chu woke up in the morning, the first thing that caught her eye was Qin Yuanyi's profile. She thought she was dreaming, so she closed her eyes and opened them again before she was sure it was really him.

After what happened yesterday, after calming down for a day, I felt that I might have been a little too excited. Not to mention that I only had a one-sided crush on him, even if he liked me, as long as I lived in this body for one day, he was just my uncle, so what?

So I was conflicted about how to face what happened yesterday. I was too impulsive at that time. When I heard that he was not my uncle, I couldn't suppress my excitement. I wondered if he had some different feelings for me.
