Chapter 82 - 82 He Can Stand Up
Mu Ci shook his head gently. “So, even my temper is controlled?”
Bei Shuo nodded reluctantly. “Brother, you’ve suffered all these years.”
Mu Ci didn’t look sad. Instead, he looked relieved. “Thank you for letting me know the truth. Otherwise, I always thought it was my own problem.”
!!
Bei Shuo held Mu Ci’s hand and remained silent.
Mu Ci reached out with her other hand and stroked Bei Shuo’s hair. “I’m sorry for making you suffer. If I were stronger, I would have taught him a lesson tonight.”
Bei Shuo smiled bitterly. “If he’s pretending to be drunk, he must have realized that your legs can walk. This is different from your plan. You should think about how to explain it to him.”
Mu Ci said calmly, “What’s there to explain? My legs can walk. At most, they’ll be even more wary of me. Sooner or later, that day will come.”
Bei Shuo sighed softly. Mu Ci must have his own plans. Everything must have been messed up.
“Bei Shuo, do you think Mu En is pretending to be drunk?” Mu Ci asked carefully.
After all, Bei Shuo was very unhappy when she thought about it.
Thankfully, Bei Shuo was a girl with a strong heart.
Bei Shuo shook her head gently. “I’m not sure, but I can smell the fragrance of the Snow Pill on him. He… might have been influenced by the Snow Pill. At night, he has an uncontrollable desire for women. I’m afraid he can’t control this. He knows who I am, but he still indulges himself. On one hand, he can’t control it. On the other hand, I don’t know if he’s deliberately provoking me. Brother, perhaps I’m overthinking. He’s your biological brother…”
Mu Ci looked up and smiled self-deprecatingly. “In this family, everyone is related to each other, but it’s also this group of people who harm each other. Even my biological parents don’t like me. What else can I hope for?”
Bei Shuo was speechless.
Mu Ci leaned against the pillow and said calmly, “It’s raining outside. There will be a good show tomorrow morning. Let’s sleep early. You didn’t rest well last night.”
Bei Shuo didn’t understand what Mu Ci meant, but she didn’t ask. She was indeed very tired and needed a good rest.
Mu Ci patted the pillow beside her. “Come and accompany me for a while. I can’t sleep well without you by my side.”
The happiest thing for Bei Shuo was that Mu Ci needed her. Hence, she happily fell asleep beside Mu Ci and forgot about Second Senior Brother’s warning.
Mu Ci’s expression was solemn and calm as he looked at Bei Shuo’s peaceful sleeping face.
The next morning, Bei Shuo was sleeping soundly when he heard Mu Ci call out to her. “Girl, do you want to get up and watch the show?”
Bei Shuo pushed him away and muttered, “No. I’m not awake yet.”
Mu Ci chuckled and kissed her on the cheek. “Okay, go to sleep. I’ll go out and take a look.”
Bei Shuo responded with an “mm” and instinctively covered her face with her hand.
Mu Ci pried her little hands away and couldn’t help but kiss her pink lips lightly. This was “stealing her fragrance”.
Bei Shuo pouted and pushed him away. She turned around and continued to sleep.
Mu Ci was in a good mood. This little girl needed to be slowly guided.
He was not in a hurry. On one hand, he was dealing with those who wanted his life. On the other hand, he was teaching this little girl how to fall in love. On one end was water and on the other end was flames. It was enough to mediate his mentality.
He tucked Bei Shuo in and got off the bed.
The servants in the house were all up, looking shocked and terrified.
Mu Chen also walked out with Old Jiang’s help.
Mu Ci came out with a walking stick. Mu Chen was shocked. “You, how did you—”
Mu Ci looked at Mu Chen and smiled. He handed the walking stick to Liu Ming and stood up. He opened her arms and said, “Grandpa, I can stand up now. I can even walk a few steps. Bei Shuo’s medical skills are amazing.”
Mu Chen stared at Mu Ci for a few seconds before finally revealing a pleasantly surprised expression. “Is this true?”
He reached out to hug Mu Ci and whispered in his ear, “It’s your mother and brother. What’s wrong with you?”
Mu Ci also whispered into Mu Chen’s ear, “Grandpa, just be surprised. The other plans won’t change.”
When the hug between the grandfather and grandson ended, Mu Chen looked at the tall Mu Ci and was extremely excited.
This scene stupefied Duan Si, who had arrived in anger, and Mu En, who was kneeling on the ground and having a fever.
Mu En came to confirm how Mu Ci appeared last night and why he wasn’t in a wheelchair. He didn’t expect Mu Ci to appear in front of him just like that.
