Chapter 198 Lianyun City (2)
With a backhand, she slapped the little maid in the face. Mu Wanqing felt unsatisfied and wanted to slap her a few more times.
Lan Xichen hurriedly stopped him and said, “Miss!!”
Mu Wanqing pulled back her hand that was held by Lan Xichen, feeling a little aggrieved, and said, "What's wrong? Isn't it okay for me to teach my own servants a lesson?"
Lan Xichen didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, a dignified middle-aged man walked in and asked as he walked in: "What happened to my dear daughter? Why are you making so much noise?"
Mu Wanqing immediately ran to the middle-aged man with grievance, and said coquettishly: "Xiaoyu, that damn girl, pushed me on the swing and almost made me fall"
Then he secretly glanced at Lan Xichen, but in the end he didn’t report him...
Mu Yi casually ordered: "Then just beat him to death..."
As soon as he finished speaking, several guards went to catch the little fish kneeling on the ground...
“Wait a minute,” Lan Xichen hurriedly stopped her, “This little girl didn’t mean it, why would she take her life?”
Mu Yi then noticed the person standing next to his daughter, who looked like a banished immortal...
Finally, Mu Yi learned from his daughter's shy words that Lan Xichen had saved his daughter...
Mu Yi also guessed from Lan Xichen's attire and his demeanor that he was a direct disciple of the Cloud Recesses, but he didn't know his specific identity...
Out of respect for immortals, Mu Yi sincerely invited Lan Xichen to stay...
Lan Xichen was also happy to see this happen, so he readily agreed...
So Lan Xichen stayed in the guest room of the City Lord's Mansion, and had more time to interact with Mu Wanqing...
During their interactions, Lan Xichen discovered that Mu Wanqing indeed shared many of the same hobbies as Jiang Cheng, even liking to stretch out her hands to catch the rain when it rained.
Mu Wanqing likes to keep dogs, and... the names she gives to her dogs are all... very memorable...
Hua Fei (Lan Xichen asked, Mu Wanqing said: "Because she is very beautiful, I think she is gorgeous, so she is called Hua Fei")
Xiao Ai (Mu Wanqing: "He looks very cute, doesn't he? But he is too small, so we call him Xiao Ai")
Mu Wanqing is usually lively and cute, and she is not so arrogant in front of Lan Xichen...
Even a little shy...
But for some reason, he always beat or scolded Xiaoyu, the maidservant beside him...
this day
Mu Wanqing accidentally dropped a petal into the cake that Xiaoyu brought.
He was furious with the little fish and whipped it hard with a whip...
Fortunately, Lan Xichen arrived in time and protected Xiaoyu from harm. Seeing this, Mu Wanqing threw away the whip and ran back to her room crying miserably. No matter how Mu Yi and Lan Xichen tried to coax her out of the door, she would not come out...
Finally, Lan Xichen personally cooked the lotus root and pork ribs soup and asked the maid to bring it in...
Mu Wanqing originally wanted to smash the soup, but when she heard that it was made by Lan Xichen himself, she immediately drank it awkwardly.
Mu Wanqing's eyes were red like a little rabbit. She drank the soup with sobs and said stubbornly:
"Hmph... burp, don't think a bowl of soup can get me off my feet... slurp, it tastes really good... hehe..." He laughed secretly while drinking the soup...
When Lan Xichen saw Mu Wanqing like this, his heart softened...
Seeing her red and swollen eyes again, he felt a little reluctant, so he did not disturb Mu Wanqing who was drinking soup proudly, and turned away to make medicine for Mu Wanqing to reduce the swelling...
When Lan Xichen gave the medicine to Mu Wanqing in the afternoon
After applying the medicine, Mu Wanqing turned back into the chattering little girl who loved to hang around Lan Xichen...
January has passed
Lan Xichen also stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for a month. Every day when he had nothing to do, he would come to see Mu Wanqing.
Actually, I came to see the little fish beside Mu Wanqing...
In fact, the first time Lan Xichen saw Mu Wanqing again, he was sure that Mu Wanqing was not Jiang Cheng...
In Lan Xichen's eyes, Mu Wanqing has too many flaws...
A person who has Jiang Cheng's shadow everywhere. I can't bear to hurt him, but I can't like him either...
What Jiang Cheng felt sorry for was Xiaoyu, who had been silently following Mu Wanqing and had been hurt by her...
She didn’t seem to have any trace of Jiang Cheng, but Lan Xichen felt that she was Jiang Cheng…
Every time he saw Xiaoyu suffering, Lan Xichen couldn't help but feel distressed, and he would subconsciously protect her every time. No matter how many times he made Mu Wanqing cry, Lan Xichen always wanted to protect her...
But Lan Xichen discovered that if he protected Mu Wanqing too much, she would become even more ruthless, so he could only pretend not to care every time...
Lan Xichen didn’t know the immortal’s methods, so he could only protect Xiaoyu secretly… He was afraid that if he showed that he cared about Xiaoyu, the immortal would use some tricks.
So Lan Xichen had been pretending to be deceived by Mu Wanqing...
As long as the three-month period is up, Lan Xichen can take Jiang Cheng back and protect him under his wings...
Because Lan Xichen no longer believed that Jiang Cheng was strong...
No matter how strong he is... no matter how strong he is... if it weren't for my poor protection, Jiang Cheng and I wouldn't be in this situation now...
On this day, Lan Xichen was invited by the city lord to go out and relax. He thought Mu Wanqing would go and bring Xiaoyu with her, so Lan Xichen readily agreed...
Unexpectedly, Mu Wanqing caught a cold, so neither she nor Xiaoyu went...
Lan Xichen smiled the whole time but his eyes were cold as he spent the whole day with the city lord...
The city lord also caught a cold when he came back, and he complained bitterly:
"I should have known not to go out with this future son-in-law. Is he a piece of ice? I'll freeze to death if I get close to him. I've caught a cold!"
Lan Xichen was a little panicked after not seeing Xiaoyu for a day. That night, Lan Xichen quietly climbed over the wall to see Xiaoyu again...
Unexpected yet reasonable...
Xiaoyu's body was covered with whip marks, and she knelt in the courtyard...
There was another little maidservant in front of Xiaoyu, secretly stuffing steamed buns into her arms...
The little maidservant said: "Sister Xiaoyu, you can eat. I have already eaten... Brother Qiangzi will secretly prepare a special meal for me, so you don't have to worry about me..."
The little maid continued to complain: "Young lady is too cruel. She beat you and punished you by not allowing you to eat just because the medicine is bitter. Medicine is bitter, not because you boiled it..."
Xiaoyu quickly covered the maid's mouth and whispered, "Shh! Don't say these words in front of others in the future, or you will suffer the consequences..."
The little maid muttered, "I know..."
Finally, the little maid reluctantly left, and Lan Xichen hurriedly gave the medicine to Xiaoyu...
Second day
Somehow, Mu Wanqing accidentally missed a step while going down the stairs and broke both of her arms...
Mu Wanqing, who broke both her hands, became even more irritable, but she couldn't hit anyone with her own hands, so she always spoke harshly to Xiaoyu...
Then she suddenly developed a sore in her throat and couldn't speak...
Then Xiaoyu had a rare few days without anyone scolding him or her...
It's a pity that the good times did not last long...
A stormy night...
Xiaoyu ran to Lan Xichen's window with her clothes in disarray. She wanted to knock on the door but didn't dare. In the end, she could only squat there and cry...
