Fascinated by another world

Chapter 144 Compromise

It has been 10 days, and there is no news from Ling Yunran. She promised herself on the phone that she will come back in 10 days. Mu Yan stood in front of the window in a daze. The night was as thick as ink. A drop of water fell on the window and slid down. Drops of water on the glass, two drops, three drops...

After a while, the rain gathered into a stream and flowed down the window lattice. The rain outside the window was strong, and there was an eaves to cover her head here, but what about that person, was she confronting someone in a corner somewhere, and the rain wetted her face? All over her body, her hair stuck to her face, her eyes were blurry, the wound was split open, blood flowed out, was washed by the rain, stained the ground red, and flowed into the sewer, those horrible wounds covered her whole body , inflammation after rain infection, pale skin, unbearable pain, or...

Mu Yan shuddered, the coldness that came from her bones, she was withdrawn from her imagination with difficulty and pain, she didn't dare to think about it anymore, as if every time she thought about it, it was like a knife was cutting at the tip of her heart, dripping with blood, trembling all over .

Mu Yan walked downstairs in a daze, looking up at the starry night sky, the cold rain fell on her face and slid down her chin, two lines of warm tears mixed with the rain, "You promised me!! ", Mu Yan whispered, "You told me not to let you go, Ling Yunran, I want you back", Mu Yan shouted to the empty and silent surrounding, "You promised me to come back!! I want you to come back !!",

Except for the sound of the dripping rain, there was no sound in the surroundings. The rain covered the sky and the earth, leaving only a lonely figure standing in the rain, let the rain wet her, looking desolate and lonely,

"You promised to come back to see me!", I don't know whether it was cold or excited, Mu Yan's teeth were clenched, her whole body was trembling uncontrollably, her eyes were bloodshot, and she shouted hoarsely, "Ling Yunran!! You Not keeping promises!!”,

A dazzling light flashed, the sky thundered, and everything trembled, "If you don't come back, I won't let you go..." Mu Yan's voice was drowned in the thunder, "If you don't keep your promise, I won't let you go!" You! Did you hear that?!" Mu Yan's face was washed by the rain, his face was pale and bloodless, and his arms were pale with veins.

"Miss Mu, it's not safe outside, let's go back." The bodyguard behind took an umbrella and ran over to cover the heavy rain above Mu Yan's head. Mu Yan stood motionless, precariously standing in the rain, waiting stubbornly.

After an unknown amount of time, a car stopped in front of him. Mu Yan's eyes flashed brightly, but he saw Uncle Chen approaching in a panic under an umbrella. At the same time, "What's the matter?" Chen Bo asked the bodyguard, but the bodyguard was noncommittal, just vigilantly checking the surroundings for suspicious people.

"Uncle Chen, get in the car." Mu Yan walked towards the car, and the bodyguards followed her to cover her with an umbrella. Uncle Chen put the umbrella behind the car and was drenched in an instant. He got into the car coldly and looked at her. Mu Yan who was sitting in the back, with a stiff face and no expression, asked, "Miss San, where are you going?"

Mu Yan was startled when he heard the words, put his arms around his chest, curled up in a corner, and repeated in a murmur, "Miss San...", the rainwater from her body flowed down the seat, wet the rug, and her eyes were absent-minded , spit out three words that were slightly inaudible, "Return to Mu's house".

Chen Bo was surprised and did not speak for a while, his eyes were puzzled, Mu Yan gradually came back to his senses, and his tone became a little more certain, "Go back to the old house", Chen Bo's lips trembled twice, and finally said nothing, started the car, slowly leave.

On the outskirts of the city is the Mu House, which occupies a large area and has a history of hundreds of years. It has been repaired several times and is built next to the lake. The black hole's big mouth seemed to swallow Mu Yan into it.

The rain was getting lighter, Lao Chen opened the car door, rang the doorbell, and waited at the door. After a while, someone came, looked at Lao Chen in disbelief, whispered a few words to Lao Chen, and poked his neck to look around. , Seeing Mu Yan behind the car, he hurriedly raised his hand to greet him, followed by a few servants holding umbrellas, who were urged to trot in the rain.

The old vermilion door slowly opened, Lao Chen returned to the car, did not start it, but sighed slightly, looked back at Mu Yan, saw that she was not moving, sighed again, stepped on the accelerator and drove in.

When we arrived at the house, there were already many people waiting. Steward Li held an umbrella and bowed and waited. When Mu Yan got out of the car, Steward Li raised the umbrella to her head and said excitedly, "Miss San, you are back!" !", "Miss San!", the people on both sides bowed their heads and shouted, Mu Yan's eyes were a little dull, and he asked in a daze, "Where's grandpa?",

"The old man is resting upstairs, come in first, it's cold outside", butler Li bowed and led Mu Yan to walk in, everything familiar passed before his eyes, stepping on thick carpets, hanging murals, antiques, Elegant and connotative decoration, not exaggerated and luxurious, full of classical charm and the precipitation of time.

"Ah", someone whispered behind him, butler Li looked displeased, and saw a puddle of water stains on the carpet from the door to his feet. Put on your clothes so you don't get cold." Mu Yan shook his head and said, "No need." "Miss San's room has been cleaned all the time, and everything in it is there," said Butler Li. Mu Yan was stunned for a moment, pursing his lips and language.

"What's the big fight? Even Steward Li had to go to the door to greet him in person." Wang Qian walked over with Mu Zedong on her arm. After seeing Mu Yan, her face changed slightly. Mu Zedong's eyes were startled for a moment, and then Asked without emotion, "What are you doing here?!", "I remember who said that he would never set foot in Mu's house again?" Wang Qian sneered mockingly, but secretly twisted Mu Zedong and gave him Wink.

"I'm here to see grandpa," Mu Yan said half aloud, "The Mu family has long since disassociated with you." Wang Qian crossed her chest and smiled, beckoning to Mu Zedong to drive her away. Mu Zedong looked her up and down, He said coldly, "The old man was angry with you at the beginning, and his heart disease has been protracted. If you really want to be good for the old man, don't appear in front of him." Mu Yan ignored him and stood stubbornly where he was.

Wang Qian wanted to say something, but Mu Zedong pulled her away, "Why are you pulling me? What is she trying to do here?" Wang Qian kept talking, and Mu Zedong knew Because of Mu Yan's stubborn personality, he didn't bother to talk to her. Anyway, she loves women, and the old man would not allow her to stay in Mu's house.

"Butler Li, go and talk to grandpa, I'm here," Mu Yan said lightly, but Butler Li stood still, Mu Yan looked up at him, butler Li sighed and said, "As soon as the third lady comes, I will tell the old man Said, the old man said, said, I don’t want to see you!”, Mu Yan’s body shook, she turned and walked out, pushed open the door, stepped on the hard ground, knelt down, and said, “I’ll wait here for him to see me until".

"Miss San, you can't bear to kneel here in the rain." Butler Li said worriedly. He watched Mu Yan grow up, so he felt very distressed. She was always pampered since she was a child. No matter how big it was, Mr. Mu never punished him cruelly. How could she have suffered such a thing?

Mu Yan didn't speak, but knelt straight, with firm eyes. Steward Li sighed, and walked upstairs, intending to persuade the old man. Both the grandpa and grandson have the same temper, and they can't be pulled back even if they are stubborn.

This persuasion lasted for two hours, but Mr. Mu did not let go. Mu Yan knelt outside in the cold, his limbs were so stiff that he lost consciousness, trembling uncontrollably, crumbling in the night wind. He rubbed his hands together and looked downstairs frequently. Everyone in the Mu family liked Miss San very much. She was gentle and polite, much better than her two elder brothers.

Butler Li came hurriedly from upstairs, with a happy expression on his face, he helped Mu Yan and said, "The old man asked Miss to go to the study." Mu Yan stood up quickly, his feet were numb, and fell down again. Supporting her, Mu Yan limped upstairs.

The study room was Mu Yan's favorite place to stay when he was a child. There was a faint smell of books in the room, and the bookshelves were full of books. Mr. Mu treasured those books and didn't let others in, except for Mu Yan.

When Mr. Mu was practicing calligraphy, Mu Yan would study the ink obediently. The inkstone exudes a faint fragrance of ink. One old and one young, one sits and writes seriously, and the other stands and reads with interest.

In the same study room, old man Mu covered his chest angrily, pointed at Mu Yan, and sternly told her to get out of Mu's house and never come back.

There was a familiar door in front of him. Mu Yan took a breath and pushed it open. There was dim light in the room, but it was hard to hide the white hair of Mr. Mu who was facing the door. His tall and straight body seemed to shrink a circle. Thin, with a bulging back, his back looks deserted and lonely.

"Grandpa," Mu Yan yelled, his back shook, paused, and turned around. Mu Chengfeng looked at Mu Yan, saw her haggard expression, her eyes were red and swollen like peaches, and said in a firm voice, "Are you willing to come back?",

Mu Yan knelt down, kowtowed three times to Mu Chengfeng respectfully, and said, "Grandpa, I'm back." Seeing Mu Yan's drenched appearance, Mu Chengfeng felt distressed and angry, " See what you've made yourself into?!", Mu Yan looked at Mu Chengfeng's older face than before, his eyes were full of distress, he knelt down, shook his hand, and said, "Don't talk angry",

When Mu Yan got into trouble when he was a child, he would kneel in front of him, rest his head on his lap, and softly say, "Grandpa, don't be angry with Yan Yan." This trick always works, Mu Chengfeng No matter how big the anger is, it will disappear.

Mu Chengfeng held Mu Yan's hand, and his heart softened. Hearing her admitting her mistake, most of his anger disappeared, and he said in a slow tone, "Go back to the room and change clothes first, don't catch a cold, and talk later when you have something to say."

Mu Yan knelt still, the words lingering on her lips, she knew it was not a good time, but she couldn't wait for a moment, she paused, and begged in a low voice, "Grandpa, please save Tang Xin, she is very dangerous".
