When Cheng Ying was almost completely recovered, Mu Xiao Tian and Yue Qing came. They brought bad news: they had failed to kill Murong Hong. In a moment of crisis, it was Xiao Fu who took the sword for Murong, and Murong Hong escaped. Although they had chased after him for a long time without being able to find his trail again, they could only ask someone to keep an eye on the Murong sisters and see what they were up to. They were worried about Cheng Ying and her, so they came to check up on her.
Hearing this news, Tang Ziyu felt a little relieved. The pervert hadn’t died, and she felt better about that. She wondered if Mu Xiaotian and Yue Qing had been too cruel. Why did they have to kill him?
‘Since Cheng Ying’s injury is no longer a problem, let’s go back to the manor together,’ Mu Xiaotian suggested. Tang Ziyu hesitated for a moment, and then said, ‘I don’t want to go back.’ ‘What?’ Mu Xiaotian and Yue Qing shouted at the same time.
‘I don’t want to go back because I’m nothing at the manor, I can’t do anything there, I’m just a useless parasite. That kind of life is not what I want, I want to stay here and be your second young lady.’
‘You don’t think you’re happy at the manor?’ Mu Xiaotian’s face fell. He was determined to take her with him. ’I can’t say if I’m happy or not, but I don’t feel happy. I know nothing there, I understand nothing, I have to do everything with other people’s approval, and I can’t do martial arts, so I’m just a burden if anything happens.’
‘Whatever you say, I will still take you away. Don’t you like jade? I bought some for you to play with. If you like the jade business, we can do it too.’ ’Mu Xiaotian, do you know what I’m saying? I feel so tired living there, like a prisoner every day. Yes, I am protected, but have you thought about it? I’m either a bird in a cage or a bird that has flown away. Do you think it will come back?’
‘You want to leave me? You think I’m holding you back? I just don’t want you to get hurt!’ “Thank you, but I don’t need that. I just want to be free. Maybe I should have refused Situ’s arrangement from the beginning and not gone back with you.” “What did you say?” Mu Xiaotian was really angry and crushed the teacup in one go. Tang Ziyu was so angry that tears fell down her face and she turned around and walked out.
‘Brother, I think what Miss Tang said also makes sense. The Tang here is really very different from the Tang at the villa! I also feel that the Tang here seems to be a little happier, maybe…’ ’No maybe! She must come with us.’
Yue Qing stood up and said, ‘Big brother, I think it’s not a bad idea to let Ziyu stay here. That way, the Murong family won’t be able to find her, and Ziyu really doesn’t fit in the world of martial arts. We can’t keep an eye on her all the time. Last time, she took Hehuan Powder, and if it was poison, she would have died long ago.’
