Li Mu was already preparing to go back to his room to sleep. When he heard Liu Hanyan's words, he suddenly became excited and said quickly: "What did you say..."
Liu Hanyan glanced at him and said, "When women speak, men should not interrupt."
Deep in Li Qing's eyes, a trace of nervousness and panic flashed, but after she and Liu Hanyan's eyes met, that trace of panic gradually turned into calmness and indifference.
She remembered what Li Si said before leaving Yangqiu County.
Li Si said that in relationships, it is always easier to take a step back than to take a step forward. If you take a step back now and regret it later, you have to take more than just one step forward. By the time she regrets it, someone will have already walked in front of her.
She actually regretted it, but it was too late because someone really walked in front of her.
Li Qing looked at Liu Hanyan and said calmly: "Yes, I have liked him since a long time ago, but don't worry, senior sister, I won't argue with you. I will leave here tomorrow morning."
She wanted to deny it against her will, but this time she denied it, and she would never have the chance to say it out again.
Li Mu looked at Li Qing with an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Liu Hanyan sighed softly and said: "Actually, I am the one who should leave. This is your home originally. The person he liked at the beginning was also you. I just took advantage of it..."
Li Qing shook his head and said: "This is my own choice, and I should bear the consequences myself. The person who has always been with him is you. This is no longer my home. Its owner is you. I hope you can get married forever."
We are of the same mind and grow old together."
Liu Hanyan asked: "What about you?"
Li Qing thought for a moment and said, "Will I stay in Baiyun Mountain? To repay the sect's kindness."
Liu Hanyan was silent for a moment and said: "The person you should repay the most is not the sect? It's someone..."
Li Mu looked at Liu Hanyan and couldn't figure out her routine for a while.
Li Qing nodded and said, "If you need me to do anything, I won't refuse."
Liu Hanyan looked at her and said, "Then I'll pledge myself to you."
Li Qing looked at her with a stunned expression.
Li Mu looked at her? Dumbfounded.
Li Qing came back to his senses and said in disbelief: "You, what are you talking about?"
Liu Hanyan looked melancholy, and her tone was a little helpless. She continued: "Although I don't want to share my husband with anyone else, but if this person is you, it's not unacceptable. After all, you are in front of me. A man can never forget the first person he likes in his life.
A woman who is with me and others always thinks about an outsider in her heart. Why not let him think about his sisters? Anyway, you are not the first one? You are not the only one either..."
Li Qing's lips moved? His thoughts were completely confused.
Liu Hanyan looked at Li Qing and said, "Of course? You can also refuse, so that I won't feel any guilt towards you? It's not that I robbed your husband, but you didn't want it, and you didn't want it twice. From now on,
Don’t go around telling people that I, Liu Hanyan, am unethical..."
After Li Qing came back to his senses, his pale face turned red now, and he whispered: "Here, give me a little time..."
After saying that, she quickly turned around and hurriedly walked into her room.
Li Mu looked at Liu Hanyan in front of him and opened his mouth. Liu Hanyan glanced at him and said, "I'll give you half an hour at most, and then come to my room."
Watching her turn and leave, Li Mu was stunned for a long time, and finally twisted his thigh to confirm that what just happened was not a dream.
If this is not a dream, then happiness comes too suddenly.
After regaining consciousness, he walked slowly to the door of Li Qing's room. Her door was not closed. Li Mu walked in and saw her sitting on the edge of the bed with her head bowed.
Li Mu didn't say anything, he just silently walked to sit next to her.
The two sat in silence for a while. After a while, Li Qing slowly rested her head on Li Mu's shoulder. This was the closest she had been to him since they met Li Mu.
Li Qing said softly: "Actually, when I was at Zongzheng Temple, I wanted to rely on you like this."
Li Mu put his arms around her shoulders and said, "You can rely on me for the rest of your life..."
Li Qing didn't speak anymore, and leaned quietly for a while, then said: "Go to Senior Sister, she needs you more than me now."
Li Mu nodded slightly and said, "I'll watch you rest."
Li Qing lay on the bed, covered himself with a quilt, looked at Li Mu and said, "Go."
Li Mu walked out of her room and closed the door for her. Li Qing, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened her beautiful eyes and said softly: "Mom, dad, have you seen that Qing'er has someone to rely on..."
"
…
Li Mu walked into Liu Hanyan's room. Liu Hanyan sat on the bedside without raising his head and asked, "She agreed?"
Li Mu didn't answer, walked to her and asked: "Why did you..."
Liu Hanyan said angrily: "If I don't ask her, why don't I wait for you to ask her? By then, I will still be angry, so why don't I ask myself?"
Li Mudao: "I mean, why did you suddenly do this?"
Liu Hanyan looked at him and said: "It's not sudden. From the day she appeared in Shendu, I have been thinking about it. Your feelings for her are not comparable to mine. What if you run away with her one day?"
,what should I do?"
Li Mu said angrily: "What are you talking about? You are the wife I am marrying. How could I run away with someone else?"
Liu Hanyan asked: "So, if you were asked to choose between me and her, who would you choose?"
Li Mu thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Can I want them all...Hey, don't bite..."
After a long time, Liu Hanyan leaned in Li Mu's arms and said: "Anyway, we already have Wanwan and Xiaobai. One more of her is not more, and one less of her is not less. If it were anyone else, she would never want to enter the Li family's door, but
Who told her to be Li Qing..."
She buried her head in Li Mu's chest and said, "Let me tell you, I have helped you marry Li Qing. You can't abandon me for any reason in the future, any..."
As she spoke, her voice became quieter, and the calmness and confidence she had when facing Li Qing had disappeared.
The clothes on Li Mu's chest were wet with her tears.
Only now did Li Mu understand what she was worried about these days.
The experience of being abandoned by her parents when she was a child has left her with trauma that has not been erased to this day.
Li Mu hugged her tightly and said seriously: "I will never abandon you, never..."
…
Changle Palace.
Zhou Wu reviewed a few memorials and suddenly raised her head and asked, "Where's Li Mu? Didn't he go to Shangshu Province today? I didn't see him in the morning."
Master Mei said: "It seems that I really didn't see him today."
Zhou Wu thought for a while, put down her pen, and said: "I don't go to court for no reason. Let me see what he is doing."
She flicked her fingers and a picture appeared in front of her eyes.
In the picture, it seems to be a certain street in Shendu. The street is full of people. On the left and right sides of Li Mu, there is a beautiful woman. He is holding the left one for a while, and the right one for a while...
Master Mei looked at the scene in front of him and said in shock: "Isn't that woman the daughter of Master Li Yi? He and Li Mu..."
Zhou Wu snorted and said: "I knew that their relationship was not that simple. He goes to Zongzheng Temple every day, more frequently than Changle Palace. I used to give him palace maids but he didn't want them. I thought he was not a womanizer.
Now it seems that all men in the world are the same..."
Master Mei said awkwardly: "He is so good, so naturally there are more people who like him, and there is nothing wrong with the things that you and I agree on..."
Zhou Wu waved her hand to disperse the scene, feeling a little irritated.
Li Mu has another wife, which means that he will come to Changle Palace less often.
This was only the first day, and he didn't even go to court...
The streets of Shendu.
The common people looked at the three figures in front of them and whispered.
"Isn't that Master Xiao Li?"
"Who is he with?"
"The one on Mr. Li's left is Mrs. Li, and the one on the right seems to be Mr. Li Yi's daughter. Why did Mr. Li hold her hand?"
"No need to ask. Mr. Xiao Li reversed Mr. Li Yi's case and rescued Miss Li from prison. She was so moved that she agreed with her body. It's normal..."
"This is also a good story. It could be turned into a play. They are a talented man and a beautiful woman, and they look like a perfect match..."
"No wonder Mr. Li said he would not let Mr. Li die. That's what he meant."
