Mu Yong’s eyes lit up as he gritted his teeth tightly.
“Young Manor Master, Young Master Nan Xian did not pet the black dragon. He took it away because a lady wanted the black dragon. He did it to win the lady’s heart.”
“What did you just say? That doomed young rebel took the black dragon away because of a lady? Qingyan is my wife. She is also Nan Xian’s aunt. He has actually disregarded Qingyan because of a lady? He can’t even tell who is more important?” Mu Ling’s cold eyes pierced into Mu Yong’s. His face darkened a few shades.
If Nan Xian took the black dragon away for his own benefits despite the fact that Mu Ling would get mad, he would have never come up to this extent. It was fine if Nan Xian had crippled Han Feng’s cultivation because of a lady as Han Feng was just a secret guard. However, Qingyan was his aunt!
Mu Ling did not care if Nan Xian disliked Qingyan. He also knew that Nan Xian would stop him from getting the black dragon if Nan Xian knew that it was meant for Qingyan. However, he could never sit back when Nan Xian disregarded Qingyan’s health because of a lady.
Mu Ling would never interfere with the conflict between Nan Xian and Mu Xi. Otherwise, he would not warn Mu Xi not to mess with Feng Ruqing. Mu Ling felt that it was absolutely fine if Nan Xian only cared about Suyi and had left the Mu family for years. Nan Xian even gave Qingyan the cold shoulder. However, Nan Xian must not put Qingyan into trouble just because of a lady.
“Mu Ling… don’t blame Xian’er. Since I am not Sister Suyi, it is natural that Xian’er doesn’t care about me. After all, he is Sister Suyi’s son. He only needs to care about Sister Suyi.” Chen Qingyan held onto Mu Ling’s hand as she smiled wryly. Her face was drained of color.
Seeing Chen Qingyan’s hands were shivering but still pretending to be strong, Mu Ling’s heart was broken.
“Qingyan, Nan Xian is my son, and you are my wife. Hence, he must respect you. It’s fine if Suyi is the person he cares about the most. But you must be the second person he cares for. Not to mention that he did this to you because of a lady, he can’t even make sarcastic remarks when talking to you.”
Mu Ling knew that Nan Xian had held grudges against the Mu family for years. Hence, he did not stop Nan Xian for being so cold to everyone in the Mu family.
However, this time, Mu Ling would never allow Nan Xian to do this. Since Nan Xian was Mu Ling’s son, he must learn to respect his wife.
“Brother Ling, you know Xian’er very well. You want him to come back to the Mu family, don’t you? You can’t be too strict with him. Don’t worry about me. The Mu family is more important. Don’t go against him.” Chen Qingyan smiled as she shook her head.
Originally, Mu Ling was burning with rage. However, after listening to Qingyan, he gradually regained his composure.
“Qingyan, you have sacrificed a lot for the Mu family. It must be very hard for you…” Mu Ling tightened his grip on Qingyan’s hands.
Chen Qingyan lowered her eyes and buried her head into Mu Ling’s embrace bashfully. The corner of her lips curved into a faint smile.
“That’s nothing. You are the person I love the most and my eternal salvation. Moreover, Sister Suyi is so in love with you. It is only natural that she holds grudges against me… I feel so bad for both of you. It’s all because of me. So, I will treat Xian’er better.” Chen Qingyan raised her head. Her eyes were filled with helplessness and grievances.
“However, Xian’er has never given me any chance. I really hope that both of them will come back to the Mu family so that I can make up to them.”
