Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

After Mu Yanxin left, Zhou Shuang bent down to clean up the mess on the back seat. Her expression was too dramatic. "Brother Ye's methods are indeed wild."

Zhou Shuang felt hot all over watching it, and could imagine how intense it was.

Zhou Shuang was on the verge of tears, muttering to herself as she tidied up, "What divine law have I broken?"

Inside the limited-edition presidential suite, Leng Tingye was soaking in a hot spring when Zhou Shuang pushed open the door and entered.

"gone?"

Zhou Shuang looked worried. "He's gone! But he looks terrible; he can barely walk."

"Ok!"

Zhou Shuang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Ye, is Miss Mu really that delicious? You always get to eat so well!"

Leng Tingye glanced at him sideways and stepped out of the hot spring. "Interested?"

"No, no, no!" Zhou Shuang quickly explained, grabbing a bath towel and draping it over Leng Tingye's body.

"No, brother, your wound has reopened?" Zhou Shuang quickly stepped forward to check. The wound, which had already scabbed over, was bleeding. Fortunately, it hadn't come into contact with water.

"Can't you take better care of your health? This is really dangerous!" Zhou Shuang said with a worried expression.

Leng Tingye didn't take it seriously, "What are you yelling about? You won't die!"

Although Zhou Shuang is usually carefree, she is truly loyal to Leng Tingye, otherwise she wouldn't stay by his side.

He re-bandaged Leng Tingye's wound. "By the way, Brother Ye, Miss Mu asked me to pass on a message to you."

Leng Tingye exhaled a smoke ring, "Speak!"

"But……"

Leng Tingye said impatiently, "If you're not going to talk, then shut up."

Zhou Shuang mustered her courage, her voice choked with emotion, and said, "She said this is the last time!"

"Did you take some kind of mute drug?" Leng Tingye cursed.

Zhou Shuang didn't dare to be coy and said loudly, "Miss Mu said this is the last time she'll be with you."

Leng Tingye stood up and kicked Zhou Shuang in the leg, "Get out of here, stop being so indecisive."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I'll leave, I'll leave. I'm the best at leaving." Zhou Shuang said as she backed away.

He closed the door, wondering, "Does Brother Ye actually like Miss Mu?"

He couldn't help but lament his fate, rubbing his leg, "What sins have I committed! Why did I have to become a messenger?"

Just as he was feeling utterly miserable, Lan Shiyan arrived with a group of bodyguards.

"Damn it, one just left and another one comes."

Zhou Shuang straightened up, blocking Lan Shiyan who was forcibly barging in. "Miss Lan, may I ask who you are looking for?"

Lan Shiyan glanced at him disdainfully, "Watchdog, get out of the way."

"What? Who are you calling a dog?" Zhou Shuang jumped up in anger.

Seeing this, the security guard stepped forward and forcibly pulled him aside.

Zhou Shuang had never suffered such humiliation before. Instead of being angry, he laughed and said, "Even a dog is better than a lickspittle."

"You..." Lan Shiyan's face changed color with anger. To be called a sycophant by the eldest daughter of the Lan family was an utter disgrace.

"This dog is disobedient; it needs to be disciplined."

"What do you want to fix?" Leng Tingye's deep, playful voice came from inside the door, and the door slowly opened as he spoke.

Lan Shiyan immediately smiled broadly, "Master Ye, you've finally agreed to see me."

"You embarrassed me in front of so many people today, but I don't blame you. I'm willing to pay any price for you." Lan Shiyan approached step by step, her eyes filled with infatuation.

Leng Tingye lowered his head, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his lips. "Would you even be willing to die?"

Lan Shiyan's expression changed drastically, her eyes filled with sorrow, "Why? I like you so much!"

……

Mu Yanxin forced herself to drive the car back to the Mu family home.

"What happened?" Madam Mu asked when she saw the woman appear before her, half-dead, with no sign of life in her eyes.

"I went in and that's how it is!" Mu Yanxin put her on the sofa.

Looking at her daughter's incredulous expression, Madam Mu murmured, "How could this happen? It's impossible!"

"What's impossible?"

As if she had broken some taboo, Madam Mu said warily, "Is this something you can ask? Just do your job!"

Mu Yanxin lowered her head and said, "Oh!"

Judging from Madam Mu's words, Leng Tingye was probably not lying, and Mu Wanyi had another purpose in approaching Leng Tingye.

As for his purpose, Leng Tingye did not explain clearly. Could it be related to that packet of white powder?

Seeing that Mu Yanxin was still there, Madam Mu asked in a very cold tone, "Aren't you leaving?"

Madam Mu's face was grim. It was best not to provoke her at this time, but she couldn't wait any longer.

She asked timidly, "Can I go see my brother now?"

Madam Mu glared at her angrily, "You've messed things up, and you still want to see your brother? You're really courting death."

“But…” Mu Yanxin was unwilling, suppressing her dissatisfaction, and said, “You said you would agree to let me meet my brother as long as I introduced Wanyi to him.”

"Besides, I said beforehand that Leng Tingye was not someone to be trifled with, it's not like I didn't introduce him!"

Mu Yanxin was not as trusting as usual. She had wanted to see her brother for three years, and she finally had a chance to meet him. To be honest, she was inevitably excited these past two nights.

Now, the intense hope has been extinguished in an instant, and the suppressed anger urgently needs an outlet.

Mu Yanxin could no longer bear it, "How dare you break your promise and tell me not to see my brother!"

Instead of fair treatment, he received a heavy slap on the face. "How dare you speak to me like that!"

"Don't forget who you are. You're not the eldest daughter of the Mu family; you're a stray dog ​​here to atone for your heartless father's sins," Madam Mu reminded her.

She had heard these words countless times over the past three years, locking herself in guilt and letting the Mu family manipulate her.

Now, she really wants to end this puppet-like life without freedom.

She looked directly at Madam Mu for the first time. "Then I'll pay with my life. Kill me and release my brother!"

Rather than living such a painful life, knowing full well where her loved ones are but unable to see them, there's no point in her living.

It's better for one person to live than for both of them to suffer.

"Hehe~" Madam Mu laughed sinisterly, patting her face. "A life for a life, what's your worthless life worth? I won't take your life, I just want you to linger on, so your father can watch over you."

"Neither you nor your brother will live a good life."

Mu Yanxin lost her strength and collapsed to the ground.

Mu Yanxin didn't know how she got out of the Mu family. She cried for a long, long time in the car.

Sometimes, she really wanted to end it all, and countless times she wanted to end her life, but when she thought of her brother, she didn't even have the courage to die.

Madam Mu's words echoed in his ears, "Live well, or I'll make your brother wish he were dead."

"Also, get Leng Changqing to marry you as soon as possible!"

"If you successfully marry into the Leng family, I'll let you meet my brother!"

Every sentence he uttered was about controlling her.

Leng Changqing's call interrupted her grief. She wiped away her tears and answered the call.

"Where the hell have you been? I've called so many times and you haven't answered. Are you dead?"
