Mu Xianning sighed inwardly. She knew that Qiu Taijun was sincerely good to her. But she could not tolerate being abandoned or betrayed.
Facing the old lady's eager and contrite gaze, Mu Xianning finally softened her heart and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I don't take it to heart."
"Yes, mother, Ning'er is not that kind of child, otherwise why would she still be thinking about Fei'er at this critical moment? Now that Fei'er has become the queen-to-be, the first person to thank is Ning'er." Yue Ting's voice mentioned this.
This thing is a bit exciting. My daughter can be where she is today, thanks to Mu Xianning.
"Yes, yes. Fei'er, although Ning'er is your sister, you should say thank you to your sister."
After hearing this, Yue Feier's face suddenly froze.
Why are there so many fools in this family? Have they forgotten? King Luo Xia was just pushed over by Mu Xianning when she didn’t want him! Since she didn’t want him, why should she, Yue Feier, thank her?
She was so unwilling to give in. Her mood, which had been gloomy during the day, became even more depressed. But she still smiled and pretended to be polite to Mu Xianning, "Thank you, Ning'er."
Mu Xianning clearly saw the reluctance in Yue Feier's eyes, but she pretended not to see it and just nodded and said, it doesn't matter.
"That's good. Just shake hands and make peace, and don't make any unpleasantness because of the regent." At this moment, Qiu Taijun laughed happily again. The depression caused by Qingya just now was gone.
"Mom, let me take you in to rest." Yue Ting stood up and helped Qiu Taijun.
Qiu Taijun nodded, patted Mu Xianning's hand again, and then reluctantly left.
Mu Xianning looked at the departing old figure of Qiu Taijun, and couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in her heart. How long can such an old man live? There is no need for her to remember her revenge.
Thinking of this, she ignored Yue Feier and Luo Ting and walked away.
In the lobby, Yue Feier suddenly dropped the tea cup in front of her to the ground.
It shattered to pieces on the ground. Luo Ting on the side was immediately startled, and a trace of surprise flashed across her beautiful face, "Daughter, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay!" After saying that, Yue Feier ignored Luo Ting and left the lobby angrily.
Being yelled at by her daughter inexplicably, Luo Ting turned around and shouted at the maids around her, "What are you looking at! Why don't you hurry up and clean it up!"
The maids immediately started packing their things carefully. It wasn't until Luo Ting left that the whole hall became quiet.
The night was extremely quiet, and Mu Xianning's room was filled with smoke. The red gauze was fluttering slightly, as if there was something stirring in the whole room.
In the huge bathing pool, there was a silver-haired girl, her smooth back shining with an alluring luster under the beating of the golden candlelight.
The girl closed her eyes and stood in the middle of the pool. Her skin was a little red, exuding a faint mist. The temperature in the room was getting higher and higher. Finally, it was so high that the water where Mu Xianning was sitting in the pool started to roll, and then it turned clear.
The pool water began to gradually turn gray, and finally, as if some toxin had been discharged, it completely turned black.
After a long time, Mu Xianning opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. A hot breath came out of her mouth. This showed how high her temperature was.
Mu Xianning glanced at the color in the pool and couldn't help but wonder. Ever since she came back from the ancient tomb, she would dye the pool water black every night while practicing.
