Pretty Fool's Live Clearance in Infinite World
Chapter 228 Cloud City 15
"What...what!!" Madam Liu was shocked when she heard the news. Her originally beautiful phoenix eyes were instantly filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Her body swayed violently, like a candle in the wind, about to collapse. At this critical moment, the clever maid who had been waiting by her side quickly stepped forward and supported Madam Liu's fragile body steadily.
"Madam!" the maid called out anxiously, her face full of worry.
"Madam, are you okay?" Upon seeing this, the guests around put down their wine glasses or tea cups, rushed forward, and surrounded Madam Liu, their concern evident in words.
At the same time, the brothers Liu Rongxun and Liu Qingmu, who were standing not far away, quickly stood up and walked towards this side quickly.
"Mother." Liu Rongxun's usually icy voice now held a barely perceptible hint of concern. In contrast, Liu Qingmu seemed much more composed, blending naturally into this drama of loving mother and filial son, his face adorned with just the right amount of worry.
The elegant man frowned tightly, quickened his pace, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Madam Liu. He asked with concern, "Mother! Are you okay?"
However, to everyone's surprise, Madam Liu didn't show any appreciation and forcefully shook off the hand that Liu Qingmu had extended to support her. She simply turned her head indifferently to look at Liu Rongxun and said softly, "I'm fine."
Despite being treated so coldly by his mother, Liu Qingmu showed no sign of dissatisfaction or surprise, as if he was already accustomed to such scenes. He stood quietly beside Madam Liu, silent, his face still maintaining that decent smile.
Lin Qi stood in the middle of the hall, wearing a red veil, his white and tender hands tightly grasping his clothes. He was extremely nervous at the moment.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Madam Liu. Did he just hear the servant say that Master Liu was dead? The young man blinked and asked the system softly in his heart.
[Is this what you mean by saying that this kiss won't happen anyway?]
[Hmm~] The system replied smugly, [Don't worry~ I already told you I won't let you really marry that old man.]
Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He tried his best to reduce his presence and curled up into a ball.
Madam Liu took a deep breath, slowly extended her right hand, and gently stroked her forehead, trying to calm the surging emotions within her. After a long moment, she finally regained some composure.
"Where is the master now?" Madam Liu's majestic voice sounded, and her eyes looked straight at the servant.
"Yes, yes, in the bridal chamber!" the servant said, and quickly lowered his head.
I thought Madam Liu would be angry, but unexpectedly she just glanced at Lin Qi standing beside her, and said to Liu Rongxun beside her with an anxious face: "Go and have a look!"
After hearing this, Liu Rongxun immediately led his men to the bridal chamber. At the same time, a mechanical voice sounded in the minds of all the players.
[Ding—A new dungeon quest is now being released: Find the real murderer of Master Liu.]
In an instant, the movements of several people in the hall obviously stopped, and they looked at Liu Rongxun at the same time.
Lin Qi naturally also heard the task issued by the system. He saw the young man stretched out his hand without hesitation and suddenly lifted the red veil. In an instant, a delicate and snow-white little face was exposed in front of everyone.
That face seemed meticulously carved, her skin as white as snow, so delicate that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it. At that moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the concubine who had just been married into the Liu family.
Lin Qi's beautiful eyes were now covered with a thin layer of mist, as hazy as the mist on the lake in the early morning. His delicate eyebrows were tightly furrowed together, forming a beautiful arc. His long eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings. A trembling sound came out of his slightly opened pink little mouth, and he timidly called out: "Young Master..."
Liu Rongxun, who was walking hurriedly forward, suddenly stopped. He turned around abruptly, and his eyes happened to meet the boy's delicate little face. When he saw the appearance of the little man in front of him clearly, his heart seemed to skip a beat involuntarily.
At this moment, he saw clearly the appearance of the delicate and lovely little guy in front of him. For some reason, an unknown fire surged in his heart.
"Young Master..." The little guy still called him softly in a voice as small as a mosquito, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.
An indescribable smile with an unknown emotion slowly emerged on Liu Rongxun's handsome face. At the same time, the cold aura emanating from his body gradually faded with this smile.
"I...I want to go too..." Lin Qi sobbed and sniffed hard, and crystal tears slid down his delicate cheeks uncontrollably, like pearls falling from a broken string, one after another.
Before Liu Rongxun could say anything, Madam Liu frowned and looked at Lin Qi and said, "Nonsense! What are you going to do?"
Madam Liu's face was solemn, her brows slightly furrowed. She glanced sharply at the servants standing motionless beside her, and shouted in a low and authoritative voice, "What are you all still doing standing here? Hurry and take Madam Lin to the side room and settle her down properly!"
The servants were startled by the lady's sudden scolding and trembled involuntarily. Then they moved quickly as if waking up from a dream and walked quickly towards Lin Qi.
The boy was so frightened that his face turned pale and he quickly ran to Liu Rongxun.
Liu Rongxun, who was standing there, was wearing a well-tailored black suit, which made him look tall and slender and his temperament more extraordinary. His handsome face was like the most perfect work of a master sculptor, with every line just right. Lin Qi was wearing an extremely gorgeous wedding dress and an exquisite wedding crown on her head. She held Liu Rongxun's arms tightly with both hands and refused to let go.
"I... I don't want to! I also want to go see the master and see him off for the last time! Wuuuu..." Lin Qi sobbed and cried intermittently.
Lin Qi thought to himself: There must be a lot of clues at the crime scene, he must follow them!
Liu Rongxun lowered his head to glance at the pitiful little person beside him who was crying bitterly, and the look in his eyes darkened.
He slowly raised his head, looked at Madam Liu with a cold gaze, and said in an emotionless tone, "Let her go with you, mother."
"Rong Xun!" Mrs. Liu was extremely angry. Seeing Lin Qi snuggling up to her eldest son, she always felt strange in her heart.
"It's up to you." Madam Liu didn't think much about it. She said that and followed the servant.
