“Sister,” Xiao Mu Anxiao didn’t want to die. She wanted to live. “I truly believe you, I truly… think you and my brother can… talk things through. My brother is definitely not… that bad.”
Of all her relatives, only Mu Xi treated Xiao Mu Anxiao well. That was why, at this moment, she wouldn’t believe Mu Xi was that kind of person even if it meant death!
“Believe what about me? Believe I won’t kill you? Or believe I… was sent by your brother? Or…” the girl said, then began to laugh maniacally. “You think he would spare me.”
“I…” Xiao Mu Anxiao hesitated, her gaze fixed on the girl’s deranged state, fear creeping in.
“Don’t say anything else. I see it now, you are,” the girl declared, reaching out and grabbing Xiao Mu Anxiao’s arm. “You won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. It seems, only in your dying struggle will you understand that what I’m saying is the truth.” With that, she yanked Xiao Mu Anxiao towards her.
Immediately, Xiao Mu Anxiao stumbled and crashed into the girl.
The girl still held Xiao Mu Anxiao’s arm tightly. “Your brother said that after you drink this poison, you’ll die in agony. Your brother also said…”
“Brother wouldn’t do that, you’re lying to me.”
“I’m lying to you?” the girl scoffed. “You’ve been lying to me all along. Everything I’m saying now is the truth. If I’ve uttered a single lie, may lightning strike me dead.”
“…” Xiao Mu Anxiao trembled all over, unable to muster any strength. She said, “Sister, between you and my brother…”
“No one in the Mu family is good. Your brother is about to marry his benefactor, and your life is meant to be taken by that benefactor. It was also that woman who made your brother try to appease you. Don’t you think about it? Your brother has never given you a kind look since you were born. Now he’s suddenly being nice to you,” the girl said, one hand restraining Xiao Mu Anxiao’s arm while the other held a black bottle. “And you don’t find it strange at all.”
For ten years, Mu Xi had indeed never looked directly at Xiao Mu Anxiao. But recently, for some reason… Mu Xi had suddenly appeared.
At first, Xiao Mu Anxiao remained wary of Mu Xi. However, after several interactions with him, she found him to be a good brother. From that moment on, she chose to trust him wholeheartedly.
But, after hearing the girl’s words, she couldn’t help but recall the figure who had just left in a hurry, and hesitation set in.
Subsequently, after replaying the girl’s words in her mind, she asked, “Sister, that person… is he really my brother?”
The girl replied, “Whether he is or not, it’s no longer important. Think about it,” she glanced at the bottle’s opening. “If I save you, you’ll surely turn against me in the future. So, you die.” With that, she pushed Xiao Mu Anxiao into a corner, then forcefully stepped on her foot, and raised her hand to grip Xiao Mu Anxiao’s cheek.
Xiao Mu Anxiao cried out, “Let me go, let me go, don’t kill me, I believe you, I believe brother is not a good person, I believe you, believe…” Before she could finish, her eyes widened as she saw the approaching black bottle, and she clamped her mouth shut tightly.
“Too late,” the girl said, giving Xiao Mu Anxiao’s foot another hard stomp. Xiao Mu Anxiao cried out in pain, her mouth opening. The girl then swiftly thrust the bottle’s opening into Xiao Mu Anxiao’s mouth.
The next second, bitterness spread through her mouth. Xiao Mu Anxiao swallowed the poison uncontrollably. Tears also streamed down her face uncontrollably. All strength had left her body after the struggle.
Outside.
Mu Anxiao tightly gripped Feng Qishi’s hand, clearly hearing the sounds of struggle and swallowing poison from inside. She lowered her head, tears falling onto Feng Qishi’s face one by one.
Following the sound, Feng Qishi’s fingers twitched slightly. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the tearful Mu Anxiao. He frowned, then raised his other hand to gently touch Mu Anxiao’s face and said, “Mu silly, I won’t die, don’t…”
“I know you won’t die,” Mu Anxiao said, tears still falling. “I’m crying for myself.” With that, she released Feng Qishi’s hand.
Feng Qishi asked, “You died?” He sat up.
The wolf demon stood at the door with his arms crossed, frowning. “There’s no sound anymore.” He then turned to look at Mu Anxiao. “You died.”
“I…” Mu Anxiao uttered a single syllable. She lowered her head, pondered for a moment, then quickly raised her face. At that moment, a blue light reappeared.
Seeing this, she widened her eyes. “Shen lunatic, it’s you.”
Hearing this, Feng Qishi quickly followed Mu Anxiao’s gaze upwards, then looked down at his own glowing blue hands. He said, “Why don’t I have this memory?”
“Perhaps it’s because of your reincarnation,” Mu Anxiao guessed.
Feng Qishi shook his head slightly, staggered to his feet, and looked up at the approaching blue light. He instinctively stepped back a few paces and said, “All my memories are here, except this part. This shows,” he said, “I’ve also lost my memory.”
“You really know how to stir up trouble,” Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi, then turned back to Shen Yan, who was slowly approaching. She was startled. “It really is him.”
“Who are you?”
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao’s body stiffened. She looked down and realized she had already materialized. Then, she helplessly looked up at Shen Yan, who was still looking straight ahead. She let out a dry laugh. Before she could speak, he said again, “You saw what you shouldn’t have seen.”
“…” Mu Anxiao frowned.
Feng Qishi quickly said, “Quickly go invisible. He’s going to erase your memory.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Anxiao inadvertently looked at Shen Yan’s slowly raising hand. She quickly stepped back, snapped her fingers, and became invisible.
“Quite swift,” the wolf demon remarked, arms crossed.
Lin Yan said, “This is Master’s former…” He looked at Shen Yan, who was clearly much calmer than he was now, with surprise. “He’s truly steady.”
“Disciple, what do you mean by that?” Feng Qishi said, unconvinced, and glanced at Shen Yan, who had lowered his hand.
Lin Yan replied, “Master, you are him, and he is you. If I praise him, it’s equivalent to praising you. Why are you so agitated?” He smiled at Feng Qishi.
Feng Qishi rolled his eyes at Lin Yan and shifted his gaze back to Shen Yan. “I really was quite calm back then.”
At the same time, Mu Anxiao, with tears in her eyes, looked at the Shen Yan of that time and murmured, “I’m sorry.”
Hearing this, Feng Qishi’s eyes darkened. “Why are you apologizing to me? I’ve already forgiven you.”
“I wasn’t talking to you,” Mu Anxiao tilted her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Shen Yan looked to both sides, said nothing further, and walked to the door. He waved his hand, and the door swung open forcefully.
Inside.
The girl thought it was the wind and continued to retreat without concern. She looked down at Xiao Mu Anxiao, who was lying on the ground, her body convulsing, unable to make any sound, and said with a wicked smile, “Your brother told you to…”
“To attack a child, you’re not a good person either.”
