Chapter 811: Keep Out V
Moreover, Grandmaster Hai Rong hated anyone who did anything by misusing his name the most.
Therefore, there was no exception for Huan’er to be forgiven even though she was his disciple.
Making Huan’er Hai Rong’s disciple was merely adding another protection to her, as this would prevent others from looking down on the Mu family.
However…
That would not bring any benefit to the Mu family!
“Hmph!”
Mu Ling harrumphed coldly as his eyes darkened. He stroked his sleeves and walked toward the moonlight.
Before he left, he turned and looked at the brightly lit/dazzling chief manor as his eyes were deeply filled with grudges.
***
“Xiao Qing, what happened?”
Somewhere inside the chief manor.
Luo Li turned her head and looked at the young girl who stood beside her. Her eyes seemed blanked.
Feng Ruqing drew her eyes back from the main door as the corners of her lips lifted slightly. “Nothing, I have just watched a drama.” She shook her head.
“Oh.”
Luo Li said nothing more as her face brightened into a broad smile.
Suddenly, she noticed Feng Ruqing was staring at something. She followed her line of vision and saw a young man standing in the moonlight not far away.
The young man was tall, handsome, and his eyes were gentle. Just like the melting snow, his face seemed cold, but also at the same time, exuded a sense of the warmth of sunlight.
“Qingqing——”
As usual, with a warm smile on his face, the young man’s voice was bright and clear as the person who stood in front of him was the suns.h.i.+ne in his heart that had driven all his gloomy feelings away.
“Chen’er, you’re here too?”
“Yeah…”
‘I’m here because I know you would be here too.’
“Chen’er…”
A soft and gentle voice came from behind Qin Chen.
Qin Chen’s warm smile completely faded as soon as he heard the voice.
An obvious impatience and coldness dawned on his face as he frowned a little.
Qin Fei’er slowly approached Qin Chen with the support of her servant. With a light smile, she turned to look at Luo Li with her bright eyes.
“Li’er, you’re here, too?”
Luo Li humphed and did not bother to pay attention to Qin Fei’er.
Qin Fei’er’s face stiffened as she seemed to be forcing a smile on the corners of her lips.
She then turned to look at Feng Ruqing again, “Lady, I didn’t expect to meet you again that soon. You had left in a hurry when we were in Heaven-i last time, and I hadn’t even had the time to learn your name. I’m Qin Fei’er— Luo Li’s best friend and Qin Chen’s elder sister.”
She seemed to be declaring her higher status even though her voice was still gentle.
After all, Luo Li had always been trusting her after all those years.
Would their feelings for each other fade away that easily?
Luo Li was just slightly p.i.s.sed off that they would make up after a while.
“Qin Fei’er, enough!” Luo Li looked cold. “You keep on saying that I’m your best friend, but have you ever treat me like your friend? All these years, you’ve been nagging at me as if you’re the senior. For all the wrongs I’ve suffered because of you, is it not enough? Xiao Qing’s right, a true friend will never let you have a chip on your shoulder. You don’t deserve to be my friend.”
Suddenly, Qin Fei’er’s face paled as she stared at Luo Li in shock.
She felt she was staggering as she could not stand on her feet properly.
“Li’er, did you just say that… I haven’t been treating you like a friend?” Qin Fei’er closed her eyes as the agony got more and more intense.
If she had not treated Li’er as her friend, she would not have asked Li’er to be tolerant of the others.
No matter what dispute had Luo Li got into, she would only ask Luo Li to concede…
That was because she understood that Luo Li would never get mad at her. In contrast, Luo Li would act differently to others. She was afraid that their friends.h.i.+p would end if she could not even maintain their friends.h.i.+p superficially.
