1140. Chapter 1140 Rejection (I)
Hearing this, Mu Lingshi suddenly tightened the teacup in her hand, thought for a moment, and then shook her head, "No, big brother, I know that you are worrying about me and the entire Mu family. In the final analysis, we owe you too much. These things have nothing to do with you. Sometimes, I am thinking, what should I do if there is no big brother?"
Mu Lingshi's voice was a little bitter.
"Why say these stupid things? We are brothers and sisters. If I don't protect you, who else can I protect? I don't deny that I have always felt guilty about you and Lingtian over the years. Mistakes are mistakes, and the damage caused can never be made up, just like grandma's sudden death, which did not give us any chance to make up for it."
Mu Yuchen said in a low voice, with a faint sense of regret in his eyes.
"I'm glad that you never blamed me."
"Brother, you just have a strong sense of responsibility. You can't be blamed for these things. We failed you first. When we were young, you gave us so much care and consideration. We all saw it. Our parents treated the three of us better than you. I often told Ah Mo that I shouldn't feel any regrets. What other children have, we don't have?"
Mu Lingshi was deeply touched by these things. He took a breath and sighed, "Brother, some things can actually transcend real blood ties, not only love, but also family affection. I feel lucky to be able to grow up in the Mu family. I am grateful that I didn't fall and didn't become twisted because of this. Thank you for the waves of positive energy you brought me, which made me look at the world optimistically and calmly in such a situation."
"Lingshi, you have changed a lot in the past two years. I feel that you are really grown up now, and no longer the little girl who needs the protection of your brother."
Listening to what Mu Lingshi said, Mu Yuchen's handsome face also showed some relieved smiles.
Listening to this, Mu Lingshi immediately chuckled, "I have grown up a long time ago, big brother! I know that everyone has had a hard time these years, all of which revolve around the things about my mother and Lingtian. These things are said to be in the past, but in fact everyone remembers them in their hearts, and they have become a scar in their hearts, and they will be turned out at any time and bleed again, just like grandma."
Speaking of this, Mu Lingshi took a breath, suddenly raised her eyes, silently stared at Mu Yuchen's handsome face, slowly reached out and held Mu Yuchen's big hand hanging by his side, "Big brother, these nightmares should also be gone. I believe you will have this feeling. After grandma left, our hearts were empty. These days I often think that maybe we can think about it in another way."
Mu Yuchen raised his eyes and looked at Mu Lingshi quietly, waiting for her next words.
"Ling Tian may not have left with guilt towards you. Although there is a gap between Ling Tian and Big Brother, I don't think he is a bad person by nature. What Qi Feng said to you doesn't have to be true or false. In short, Ling Tian owes you. At this point, Big Brother, please forgive him in your heart. I believe that his spirit in heaven will also hope to get your forgiveness."
"How do you know that he hopes to get my forgiveness, rather than resenting me for being merciless and causing him to lose his life? Ling Shi, guilt comes from the heart. Everything has a cause and an effect. I am the cause, and Ling Tian bears the result. I admit that I have been haunted by nightmares about these things for many years. It was not until your sister-in-law got married that the situation gradually improved. Turn."
Mu Yuchen silently withdrew his hand, turned his body, and looked at the high sky and flowing clouds outside--
"I have been looking for an excuse to let myself go, Lingshi, my brother is not as strong as you think, and the obsession in my heart is looking for a gap to vent, so that the fragile self can be relieved. These feelings, you may not necessarily understand, until you stop asking why, and stop persuading me to let go. "
"In the past, I might not be able to let go, but now, at least I can face it calmly. "
This is the first time that Mu Yuchen has revealed his deepest feelings in front of them so deeply. The fact that he has been unwilling to face, he can now treat it calmly.
"If one day Gu Qihao asks you to forgive him, what will you do?"
Mu Yuchen suddenly changed the topic, looking straight at Mu Lingshi with a deep gaze.
This question made Mu Lingshi stiffen instantly, but after just thinking for a moment, she shook her head directly, "It's okay, it's good like this, I don't need another father, after all, I am also a person who holds grudges. If I have to forgive him and accept him like this, then what have I become? Mother, Lingtian, and grandma, what are they?"
Mu Lingshi laughed, "A person with such deep sins as him does not deserve to be forgiven."
"He did this for three reasons. First, for the Gu family's property. Second, for Delis. The person he loves is Delis. Perhaps this has never changed. To him, aunt is just a..., third, because he wants to protect you."
No matter what, Mu Yuchen still felt that it was necessary to tell Mu Lingshi this news.
"It doesn't matter, big brother, these are not important. Since I knew that Gu Qihao was my father, everything has become unimportant. No matter how things will turn out in the future, I will always be Mu Lingshi, and I will always protect the Mu family."
Mu Lingshi's tone was so decisive that Mu Yuchen could only smile and nod, "I understand."
"Brother--"
At this moment, Mu Lingshi fell into Mu Yuchen's arms a little fragile--
"Thank you for your protection. This is the luckiest thing that Amo and I have ever experienced in our lives!"
Mu Yuchen smiled and said nothing, but raised his hand slightly and patted Mu Lingshi's shoulder...
…
Xi Xiaye didn't expect that she would run into Qi Feng again.
In the afternoon, next to the escalator on the edge of Nanjiang River.
Mu Yuchen had asked Vice President Zhang Lan to send him drawings before. He happened to be having dinner with a partner nearby, so he came over to take a look. He didn't expect to be here. It looked like he was here to inspect the construction site.
The Nanjiang No. 2 Project is located in the large area past the No. 1 Project that Shengshi Group is responsible for.
Standing on the escalator here, you can clearly see the situation over there.
Qi Feng seemed quite surprised to see Xi Xiaye, but there was a gentle smile on his handsome face, like a spring breeze...
