Time Travel and Love

Mo Liuyuan was horrified, raising his palm to swat Chu Qingmeng away, who rushed forward to cover Mu Lingxue's bleeding wound. Mo Liujin was also genuinely startled and quickly flew to catch Chu Qingmeng. Chu Qingmeng hadn't expected Mo Liuyuan to attack her, and was caught off guard by the palm wind, instantly spitting out a mouthful of blood. Mo Liujin hugged Chu Qingmeng and looked at Mo Liuyuan warily, only to see him frantically trying to revive Mu Lingxue. The two Mu brothers even glared at Chu Qingmeng fiercely, as if they wanted to eat him. Chu Qingmeng felt as if his chest was exploding. After a moment of calming down, he endured the pain and jokingly said, "Mo Liuyuan, should I say you're blind? Or should I say you're deeply loyal?"

That one sentence silenced the hatred of several people. Mo Liuyuan looked up at Chu Qingmeng. Chu Qingmeng leaned weakly in Mo Liujin's arms and said sarcastically, "I really admire your ability to hug a man and cry your heart out. I think I need to question your sexual orientation."

At this point, even if Mo Liuyuan was dumb, he could still understand the meaning behind Chu Qingmeng's words. Chu Qingmeng glanced at 'Mu Lingxue''s' face. Mo Liuyuan understood and touched 'her' face for a while, then tore off a human skin mask with force. Chu Qingmeng saw that he had finally seen through him, and closed his eyes weakly. He forced himself to explain, "You three are Lingxue's closest people, but you were so concerned about her that you rescued her so smoothly. Don't you think there's something wrong?" Chu Qingmeng, catching his breath, continued, "His gait, no matter how much he imitates it, still reveals the shadow of a man's gait. His Adam's apple may be small, but it's still so obvious when he speaks. You three are like that blind man, asking about the imposter's well-being."

"Just based on these?" Ling Xiao asked in shock, "What if your judgment is wrong?"

Chu Qingmeng rolled her eyes at him, took a pill, and continued, "I told him about Wang Defa, but he didn't understand what I meant. I then asked him, 'How much sorrow can one have?' He couldn't answer. The most important thing is that Mu Lingxue never calls me Sister Qingmeng, just like I would never call her Sister Lingxue."

Ling Xiao was silent. This sick beauty had such a sharp eyesight. And what happened just now, he didn't dare to recall it!

After taking the medicine, Chu Qingmeng felt the exploding sensation in her chest not subside at all, but instead intensified. Unable to suppress the pain, she spat out another large mouthful of blood. Mo Liujin picked her up and walked towards the room, while Feiying had already gone to call the palace doctor.

The next morning, Chu Qingmeng slowly awoke. She opened her eyes to find a room full of people. Mu Lingxue, already dressed, was standing by her bedside. Chu Qingmeng opened her mouth to speak, but after a single syllable, she closed it in pain. She looked at Mo Liuyuan and slowly raised her middle finger. Mo Liuyuan's guilt was palpable. Mu Lingxue, who was about to cry, was amused by her gesture and laughed. Everyone looked at Mu Lingxue, puzzled. She smiled at Mo Liuyuan and said, "Qingmeng is scolding you."

Chu Qingmeng gestured for Mo Liujin to help her up. Mo Liujin considerately placed a cushion for her before helping her lean on it. Chunhe tactfully handed her a notebook and a specially made charcoal pencil. Chu Qingmeng took them and drew a picture of an angry child, showing it to Mo Liuyuan. She then wrote, "I need compensation!!!"

Everyone laughed and said goodbye after a while. After a day and night of hard work, everyone was exhausted. After everyone left, Chu Qingmeng looked at Mo Liujin with a face full of resentment and wrote, "Ah Jin, I always say that you Mos are unlucky for me. I couldn't leave the house in winter after you two accidentally injured me. Now, with another person, I can't leave the house at all. If you keep unlucky for me, I won't want you anymore."

Mo Liujin looked at her with heartache, and didn't dare to hug her. He could only comfort her in a low voice. He also regretted in his heart why he didn't realize earlier that his second brother was going to take action.

Chu Qingmeng later learned that Mu Lingxue was really lucky that night. When she gave up the main road and ran towards the small road, she happened to run into Mo Liujue who was out of the city on business. In the end, it was Mo Liujue who sent her back. After arriving home, she learned that her two brothers were at Princess An Ning's Mansion. Mo Liujue sent her to Chu Qingmeng before leaving the city again.

New Year's Day arrived in a flash. This was Mu Lingxue's first time celebrating the Lunar New Year in the capital. Due to events in the capital, the three siblings were unable to return home, so the family reunited in the capital. They arrived on the 29th. After learning of Mu Lingxue's plight, and learning of all that Chu Qingmeng had done for her, the family was horrified and determined to come and celebrate the Lunar New Year with Chu Qingmeng. Chu Qingmeng, however, couldn't even get out of bed, spending her days in confinement. With the first day approaching, she lamented that Mo Liujin might not be able to come to the capital this year, and she would likely be alone. She didn't bother to dress up for the holiday, as she couldn't leave the house anyway. She sent the servants off to celebrate the Lunar New Year, leaving only Feiying and Feiling by her side. They were also orphans, raised in the Dark Guard Battalion, without any family. Chu Qingmeng lay in bed, staring blankly at Feiying and Feiling, who sat on the beams, leaning against either side, either side, without a word. Chu Qingmeng picked up a piece of paper and pen and wrote, "Why don't you two share some gossip for me?" Then he crumpled it up and threw it at Feiying.
