The villain, Xiao Nanliang, caused the female lead excruciating pain.

"Young master...it's impossible..."

An Qing staggered forward, but suddenly her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

She appeared to have fainted from the shock, but in reality...

With a slight shift in perspective, you can see Du Yunyi, hidden in the shadows, giving Su Qi a reassuring gesture through the camera lens.

Tsk tsk tsk, that's why she's called a loving mother, she's so thoughtful.

An Qing's master, Pei Lianshan, also appeared soon after.

Seeing her disciple collapse on the ground, Mu Feier lay on Su Qi's corpse and wailed loudly.

She couldn't help but think of her deceased husband. Feeling empathy for him, she didn't disturb Mu Feier and helped An Qing away.

To prevent things from getting out of hand, Du Yunyi quickly arrived with her people.

"Junior Sister Mu, let's leave Junior Brother Su in their care. They are professionals and will be able to perfectly repair the damage to the body and send Junior Brother Su off with dignity."

Mu Feier remained unmoved, her hand tightly gripping Su Qi's already stiff hand.

"Do you want to watch Junior Brother Su's body rot and stink? He was always very clean, so let him be laid to rest as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Mu Feier reluctantly let go of her hand.

The two people following behind Du Yunyi quickly stepped forward and, without saying a word, began to carry the body away.

"and many more……"

Mu Feier suddenly spoke up.

This made both Du Yunyi on the scene and Su Qi in the practice room tense.

Did she figure something out?

Mu Feier walked forward with heavy steps, covered the body of Su Qi with a white sheet, smoothed out the wrinkles, and then made way for people to carry the body away.

That's it?

The mother and son, who had been on edge, breathed a sigh of relief and then inwardly despised Mu Feier.

The person is dead, why are you still pretending to be a virtuous wife and loving mother?

……

After the two men carried the body away, they cremated it at lightning speed and scattered the ashes.

It wasn't until evening that Mufier, who had been waiting, realized something was wrong.

Looking somewhat haggard, he stumbled into the main hall of the peak and found Du Yunyi.

Where is Su Qi?

"He's already been cremated." Du Yunyi didn't even look up, continuing to handle sect affairs.

Mu Fei'er staggered back two steps in disbelief, her beautiful eyes immediately filled with anger.

"Didn't you say you wanted to repair the damage on his body?"

"It was repaired. It was cremated only after the repairs were completed."

"You... what right did you have to cremate him on your own?" Mu Fei'er's voice was low, as she tried her best to suppress her anger.

"Didn't I say before? This was Junior Brother Su's own request!"

Du Yunyi looked up in surprise, then continued working with her head down.

Mufier's expression froze for a moment, then she took a deep breath.

"Even if it was his own request, why didn't you inform me in advance?"

“If I were to inform you, you would definitely stop me from scattering Junior Brother Su’s ashes.”

"You...you scattered his ashes???"

Mufier felt dizzy and her anger clouded her judgment.

Clang…

The longsword was drawn and slashed down fiercely.

"presumptuous!"

Du Yunyi suddenly leaned forward, raised her hand to gather spiritual power, and struck Mu Feier away with a palm strike, even though she was behind.

Seeing Mu Feier lying on the ground vomiting blood, Sect Leader Du was extremely pleased, but he pretended to be angry.

"Do you even respect me as the sect leader anymore?"

"Why do you..."

"This was also what Junior Brother Su requested himself. Don't you remember? When he was seriously injured before, he said that he was a rootless duckweed when he was born, and he didn't need anyone to remember him after he died."

Mu Feier, who was struggling to stand up, felt all her strength drain away upon hearing these words. She lay helplessly on the ground, staring blankly upwards.

Tears of despair streamed down her face.

"Su Qi, you're so heartless! You won't even leave me this little bit of hope?"

However, Mu Feier quickly understood Su Qi's intention in doing so.

This idiot wants to make her forget everything this way.

This idiot wants to use this method to make her give up completely.

This fool didn't want to become an obstacle to her and Ye Feng being together, so he chose to disappear from her world completely...

"Waaah... Su Qi, why are you doing this to me?"

Seeing Mu Feier lying in front of her, sobbing uncontrollably, Du Yunyi ignored her and returned to her seat to continue her work.

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Feier, exhausted from crying, shakily stood up, her eyes lifeless.

Where did you scatter his ashes?

He told me not to tell you!

Mu Feier's lips trembled as she gave a bitter smile, then she walked out with a slightly hunched back.

Only after confirming that she had gone far away did Du Yunyi raise her head.

"Come out!"

"Phew, we almost got spotted."

Su Qi came out from behind, patting his chest with a look of alarm.

"If you keep hitting it, it'll deflate. Be careful, or the kids will starve to death later."

Du Yunyi glanced at it and teased.

"ah!"

Su Qi was so frightened that he quickly stopped, and it took him three seconds to realize what was happening. His rosy cheeks puffed up with anger.

"Mom, I'll say it again. I! Am! A! Man!"

……

Like a lost soul, Mu Feier wandered back to Qifeng Courtyard. Looking at the threshold of the gate, she recalled how someone had clumsily tripped and fallen flat on their face.

With trembling hands, he tried to touch the illusory figure before him, but the figure shattered and vanished the instant he touched it.

As he walked through the gate, Su Qi's figure appeared and disappeared one by one in the familiar courtyard.

The thought of never seeing that idiot again made her heart ache so much she could hardly breathe.

Mufier hated it so much.

He hated himself for bringing Su Qi to Pingnan City.

If they hadn't met Ye Feng in Pingnan City, there wouldn't have been a rift between them.

She hated herself for not giving Su Qi enough confidence to believe in her choice.

I hate myself for being fickle, always wanting more than I have.

Crossing the courtyard from the gate to their room, a distance of only a few dozen meters, Mu Feier felt as if she had walked through a lifetime.

As she entered the room and looked at the familiar desk, Mu Feier remembered something.

He took out a folded piece of paper from his storage ring and carefully unfolded it.

The peach blossom dream is but an illusion; three years have passed, and autumn has come. If we can one day share a snowfall, then we can consider ourselves to have grown old together.

Tears welled up again and accidentally dripped onto the paper.

Mu Feier tensed up instantly, quickly and carefully laid the paper on the table, took another piece of paper, and wiped away her tears.

Looking at every word on it, she clutched the paper to her chest.

She lost it.

She lost the man who had her all to do.

Mufier, why were you so careless?

I questioned myself in my heart.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a letter on top of the stack of white papers on the table.

There was a piece of paper covering it, but she just removed it, revealing the letter.

With trembling hands, he quickly took the letter.

The cover had several large characters that read, "To be opened by Fei'er."

It's familiar handwriting.

She carefully opened the envelope, took out the letter, and read it word by word.

This was written by Su Qi the night he got drunk, when he was determined to divorce himself.

The letter contains a lot of information, but it only has one main point.

Su Qi advised her not to worry about herself and encouraged her to boldly pursue happiness.

He never explicitly said he loved her, yet every sentence he uttered was inseparable from the theme of loving her…

She... lost the man who was willing to get hurt so that she could be happy.
