Chapter 845: Feng Ruqing"s Doubt IVTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Moreover, the old master"s birthday was around the corner. No matter what the old master"s health condition was, the birthday celebration must go on as planned. Otherwise, rumors would arise among the people of the Tian Shen Manor.
Currently, Chen Qingyan was busy preparing for the birthday celebration. She had no time for Tan Shuangshuang. Hence, simply no one could stop Tan Shuangshuang from bossing everyone in the backyard of the Mu family around.
The only thing Tan Shuangshuang was dissatisfied with was that Mu Ling had never touched her since she had stepped into the Mu family.
At this time, outside the Mu family"s herb chamber, Tan Shuangshuang paused with the help of a servant. Her hand was stroking her pregnant belly, her eyes were squinting at the guard in front of her.
“I was frightened a few days ago. The physician said that it might affect my baby. Hence, I am here to get some herbs. I am the young manor lady of the Mu family. Am I not allowed to do this?”
Tan Shuangshuang, too, had always been pretended to be gentle and kind to win one"s heart. However, she was smart. Previously, she had done that in front of Liu Yuchen and his father. Currently, she only did that in front of Mu Ling.
As the person before her was merely a guard, she did not even bother pretending and simply wielded her the power of her status.
“No one is allowed to enter the herb chamber without the young manor lady"s command.” The guard"s face was as nonchalant as steel.
As Suyi was not staying in the Mu family at the moment, the young manor lady of the Mu family was Chen Qingyan.
‘It"s Chen Qingyan again! She is just a concubine like me. Why could she command the people of the Mu family while it is as if I am just taking shelter in the Mu family?” Tan Shuangshuang"s eyes darkened.
After Tan Shuangshuang had given birth to Mu Ling"s child, she would definitely step out of this charming middle-aged lady"s shadow!
As men easily get bored in relations.h.i.+ps, Chen Qingyan had been staying with Mu Ling for so many years. Mu Ling must have treated Chen Qingyan as his kin and had gotten used to having her around. Hence, all Tan Shuangshuang needed was time. She could be the master of the Mu family sooner or later.
Tan Shuangshuang had lost to Feng Ruqing back then. She would never lose to anyone else again.
“I"m pregnant with the young manor master"s child. If anything happened to his child, who should bear the consequences?” Tan Shuangshuang narrowed her eyes as she smiled, coldly.
The guard frowned. Even if they held Tan Shuangshuang in disdain, she was indeed pregnant with the Mu Ling"s child. If anything were to happen to Mu Ling"s child, he would definitely kill them.
“Is there any prescription from the physician?” The guarded asked, nonchalantly.
“These are the spirits herbs that I need.” Tan Shuangshuang took out a paper and handed it over to the guard.
The guard did not say anything. He merely took the paper and walked into the herb chamber.
“Here you are.” After a while, the guard took out a box from the herb chamber and put it into Tan Shuangshuang"s hands, coldly.
In a spasm of rapture, Tan Shuangshuang stretched her arms to take over the box. Her heart pounded with excitement.
They were Grade-4 spirit herbs! An ordinary person could hardly obtain them in his whole lifetime.
‘Feng Ruqing never would have thought that I could come so far after leaving Liu Yuchen."
“Haha!” Tan Shuangshuang let out a boisterous laugh, tears streamed down her face.
‘Feng Ruqing, I have the Mu family behind my back. If I give birth to a son, I would be the master of the Mu family! By then, who do you think you are to compete with me?”
Although there were two young masters in the Mu family, Tan Shuangshuang had only met the second young master—Mu Xi. The other one was like a taboo and no one in the Mu family had ever spoken about him.
