Mu Xiaotian opened the door, and Cheng Ying stood outside it. Tang Ziyu took two steps back in shock, “How is this possible? How?” Her tears flowed again in an instant. Cheng Ying opened his arms, and Tang Ziyu immediately ran into his embrace.
It turned out that Cheng Ying had indeed been hit in the heart and collapsed to the ground, but he was not dead. However, in case Murong Hong came back to take revenge, the fourth brother came up with the idea of holding a funeral for him. Since there was no dead person, only a coffin, Tang Ziyu was not allowed in. And Lan Xiangying, out of jealousy, deliberately exaggerated the facts to let Tang Ziyu give up.
When the injured Cheng Yingcai tried to go out to rescue his brothers, he found that they had been sent back. The two people who were sent back were both in a dying state, so he quickly went to save them first. After their bodies had recovered, they wanted to go to Murong Manor again to rescue Tang Ziyu, but they learned a piece of news from the Murong family: Tang Ziyu had already left with Murong Hong.
This news hit all three of them hard, especially Yue Qing. Seeing the pain in his eldest and second eldest brothers’ faces, Cheng Ying knew that Tang Ziyu must have loved them dearly to have volunteered to go to Murong Manor and die. But she couldn’t have felt that deeply for him, especially since she had already considered herself dead. So he tried his best to hide his hurt and pain, acting as usual, but inside he often felt that Tang Ziyu didn’t love him as much as she loved his brothers.
Tang Ziyu, who was lying on Cheng Ying, was howling and crying, and all the thoughts she had had for Cheng Ying over the past few days came pouring out. In order to harden her resolve, she stopped eating and drinking, just so that she would not cry uncontrollably at the mere thought of Cheng Ying, because that would not do against Murong Hong.
Now, she could finally cry without restraint, without having to suppress herself any longer. So she cried harder and harder, and she even forgot about her own physical condition. As a result, she didn’t catch her breath in time and her body slipped downward.
Cheng Ying embraced her, and then quickly breathed in some air into her mouth, while Mu Xiaotian also quickly transferred some of his internal strength to her, so that she could exhale. As soon as she could breathe again, she immediately embraced Cheng Ying like an octopus, for fear that he would disappear.
Cheng Ying hugged her, unable to hold back her tears. Tang Ziyu did love him, otherwise she would not be so sad, and all his previous suspicions about her were wrong! His heart suddenly felt lighter, and he also hugged Ziyu tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
Looking at the two people hugging together, Mu Xiaotian frowned. He thought of someone, someone who was sitting in the corner of the courtyard at the moment, someone who had not reacted even though he had heard such a loud noise – Yue Qing.
Yue Qing had been sitting by the wall next to Tang Ziyu’s former room for a long time. These days, he just sat there, lost in thought. Sometimes he would suddenly say a few words to Mu Xiaotian, but Mu soon realised that he was just talking to himself.
“I thought that with Ziyu, I wouldn’t be afraid of being perfect or imperfect. Now she’s gone, she must have seen me like that. She must hate me.’
‘She used her life to save mine, but I wish she hadn’t. Then I could have come back and seen her.‘
’Why did she go with Murong Hong? Was it because he was a good fighter? Or did he threaten her?’
No matter what Mu Xiaotian said to him, he refused to answer. He repeated the same sentence every day, which was very worrying. The doctor said he had lost his mind. There is no cure. Yes, he really has lost his heart. Unless his heart comes back, there really is no way. And Tang Ziyu is his heart.
‘Ziyu, come here and take a look at Yue Qing.’ Cheng Ying hugged her and brought her to the corner. Yue Qing, who was sitting there, seemed carefree and leisurely, but it was soon discovered that his eyes were completely unfocused, and no one could appear in his eyes.
