It might be a problem if Qingyan remained in the Mu family. Suyi would never want to see him again if Qingyan was here.

Mu Ling rubbed his temples, a headache threatening to overpower him. "If Qingyan hadn't been so kind to me, maybe I could have been ruthless enough to kick her out."

He already knew that it was Suyi who had to risk her life and save him when he was injured back then.

But Qingyan

She had also saved him once!

And she was always considerate of his feelings in every aspect.

What made him different from an animal if he kicked Qingyan out?

Mu Ling did not realize that he was already in the backyard. He lifted his eyes and saw a pale, bleak face.

Qingyan was not as good-looking as Suyi, and over the years, the wrinkles had already spread from the corners of her eyes.

After going through many ups and downs, her appearance had changed a lot. A pain suddenly stabbed at Mu Ling's heart as his gaze fell on Chen Qingyan, who was busy sewing. "Qingyan," he called in a small voice, guilt needling him.

Every time he was faced with Suyi's cold face, he would have a thought to send Qingyan away as an exchange for Suyi's smile.

But he had forgotten

He forgot about what Qingyan had given to him.

He forgot that moment When she had blocked his death's path with her petite body.

"I'm sorry, Qingyan. I'm sorry" He rushed forward and tightly hugged the woman in front of her.

Chen Qingyan's body stiffened. She lowered her eyes and asked, "Brother Ling, are you not angry anymore?"

These days, even though Mu Ling rarely came to visit her, she had noticed that his attitude was not as gentle as before. Maybe it was because of the incident that had happened back then that had made him a bit colder to her

He did not drive her away because he was indebted to her.

There were some things that Chen Qingyan had clearly understood, but she did not say it out loud.

"I was angry. I was furious when you have almost harmed my father and made me misunderstood Suyi. But when I think again I know you did it for Father's wellbeing. I misunderstood Suyi, and it was my own fault, not you. I saw you bringing me the tea and water, and I thought that Suyi was not there, so it had caused a misunderstanding.

"I was annoyed when you secretly took away so many spirit herbs, betraying my trust in you and dragging the Mu family down. I was even more furious as you pretended to commit suicide to get my forgiveness when you didn't dare to do it.

"But you also said that you had used those spirit herbs to exchange with the medicine for the old master, even though that almost killed him You pretended to kill yourself, but you didn't dare to do it for real, and that's normal. If I were you, I wouldn't have dared to hurt myself too. You care too much for me, so you don't want to leave me, and you have used such methods just to be forgiven

"It's been a year. I've been angry with you for a year. I can see that you are genuinely remorseful throughout this year. Your body is covered in cuts and bruises, and you talk about your mistakes over and over again. In the end, I I can't bear to ignore you for my whole life."

Chen Qingyan's lips curved upward in a faintly mocking smile that was almost invisible to him.

In one year, she had sacrificed a lot for Mu Ling's forgiveness

And she had almost died in the Mu family several times.

She was betting!

Betting on Mu Ling's heart!

As expected, Mu Ling could not bear to let her die. He pulled her back from the edge of the death over and over again.

She had won the bet!

Of course, she was not like before, willing to die just to prove her sincerity. This time, she told Mu Ling if shedding some blood would make her guilty heart feel better, she would take any torture and punishment for the rest of her life.
