Why is it that none of the old servants and maids that she's familiar with are left?
Shen Jinglin disappointedly shakes his head, "I don't know. Ever since you disappeared, father has been looking for your whereabouts, starting from the Su family's fire, one city after another, one country after another. "
"But there's been no news, until a year ago, father suddenly said that he seemed to have a clue about your disappearance, and wanted to investigate."
"But after several months, there was no news from father. When he appeared again, he was lying in a pool of blood all over his body. After waking up, he's always had this deranged appearance."
Muyan stares blankly, and only after a long while does she say: "Father … has been looking for me?"
"Yes!" Shen Jinglin looks at Muyan guiltily, "Yanyan, father and I have always felt very sorry for you. At that time, we clearly knew that Su Yuexiang wasn't good to you, but we left you to gain experience on our own. When we came back, we found out that they had sent you to the Su family, and … you were even pregnant with a child … "
"At that time, father and I tried our best to bring you back, but Su Yuexiang obstructed us in every possible way. I had no choice but to sneak into the Su family's territory to look for you, but who knew that you'd already disappeared."
"After you disappeared, father often drank to drown his sorrows. When he was drunk, he kept shouting that he was sorry to his sworn brother, sorry to his benefactor, and that he didn't take good care of his only daughter."
Shen Jinglin holds Muyan's hand, his voice choked with sobs: "Yanyan, can you forgive father? He's not a good father, but all these years, he really regretted that he didn't take good care of you. "
Muyan has a complicated expression as she looks at the unconscious Shen father on the bed. After a long time, she whispers: "Muyan still hasn't repaid father's kindness in raising me, how could I forgive him?"
"Brother, then how did your leg get injured?"
Shen Jinglin stares blankly, then the emotions in his eyes slowly tumble. Embarrassment, humiliation, pain, unwillingness, one by one, surge up.
Finally, he closes his eyes and hisses: "Yanyan, brother, please don't ask. We can't provoke that person, we … really can't. Just let it go, okay? "
Muyan still wants to say more, but she sees Shen Jinglin's despair and pain on the verge of collapse.
She swallows back the words on the tip of her tongue, "Okay, brother, don't be sad, I won't ask. But don't worry, I will definitely cure your leg. "
Shen Jinglin slowly calmed down, "Does Father really need seven days to wake up?"
When Mu Yan heard this, she chuckled, "Of course not, father was poisoned. Even if the poison entered his lungs, as long as the antidote was appropriate, he would be able to wake up immediately."
"Then you said … seven days?"
"Haha, if I didn't say seven days, how could those two foxes show their tails?"
Saying that, she mischievously winked at Shen Jinglin, "Brother, six days later, little sister will treat you to a good show, how about it?"
= = =
Six days later.
When the Lu family's wedding procession arrives in a grandiose manner, Muyan and Shen Jinglin are in the room looking after the Shen father.
Hearing the heaven-shaking sound of the suona and gongs outside, Shen Jinglin asked in surprise, "What's going on?"
Muyan looks outside with a smile that isn't a smile, "It's probably the Lu family's wedding procession."
"The Lu family is welcoming the bride??!" Shen Jinglin's eyes widened in shock, "When did our Shen family become related to the Lu family?"
Without waiting for Mu Yan to answer, the door of the room is pushed open with a bang.
