Hearing Mu Tong mention Wandong, Li Baiyi's already depressed mood became even more heavy. He shook his head and asked, "Tong'er, I haven't been here for some days, how is your sister?" "
"Okay? What a ghost! In order for our Mu and Li families to get married as soon as possible, my father has been a little tight on my sister for a while. My sister may be anxious. Not only does she refuse to see my father, but she also says that I If dad forces her again, she will commit suicide."
"What, commit suicide? How can that be done?" When Li Baiyi heard this, he immediately became anxious.
Mu Tong said bitterly, "Of course not! But it's not like you don't know about my sister's stubborn temper. Hey, my dad is also very depressed these days!"
"I'm going to see your sister!"
There was a bit of worry in Mu Tong's eyes, and he said, "I'm afraid this is not good, right? Although my sister's attitude towards you has been somewhat softened over the years, if my father forces her like this, she will definitely vent all her anger on you. , If you go there, you will most likely hit a wall!"
Li Baiyi smiled bitterly and said, "Have I encountered too many obstacles with your sister over the years? It can be said that I am used to it."
Seeing Li Baiyi's miserable and helpless expression, Mu Tong couldn't bear it. He shook his head and said, "I really don't know what's wrong with my sister. Why doesn't she know how to cherish such a good man like Brother Li? For a It’s not worth it for a poor, ordinary boy to torture himself and Brother Li! Brother Li, don’t be too sad. If my sister doesn’t want to marry you, then I will!”
Seeing Mu Tong puffing out his cheeks and looking confident, Li Baiyi could only smile bitterly.
Bingxin Pavilion was originally Mu Lian's boudoir, but now it has become Mu Lian's prison. There are Mu family masters guarding all sides, and Mu Lian is strictly forbidden to step out of Bing Xin Pavilion. In the past few years, Li Baiyi would come here whenever he had free time, and he was very familiar with this place.
Before Li Baiyi and Mu Tong approached Bingxin Pavilion, they heard a burst of curses from a distance. Mu Tong's expression suddenly changed, and he said with both heartache and helplessness, "Dad is forcing my sister again!"
Li Baiyi also frowned and quickened his pace!
Mu Lian's father, Mu Yucheng, is also the head of the Mu family. With his high and powerful position, life could have been very comfortable. But God just refused to let him have some leisure time. In the past few years, Mu Yucheng had been extremely annoyed because of Mu Lian's affairs.
"Lian'er, dad just wants to ask you one thing, do you still have me as your dad in your heart?" Mu Yucheng came today to persuade Mu Lian for a long time, but Mu Lian refused to let go. Mu Yucheng finally lost his patience. asked angrily.
"Of course Lian'er has a father in his heart, but does his father have a daughter named Lian'er in his heart?" Mu Lian's voice came from the room, full of sorrow and despair, which made people feel sour in their hearts.
"What did you say? If dad doesn't have you as a daughter in his heart, I will kill you just because you lost the Ming Shen Soul Jade!"
"Then please kill me, dad! If you can't be with the one you love, life would be worse than death!"
"Asshole! At such a young age, do you know what love is? Also, as the eldest daughter of my Mu family, you fell in love with an ordinary boy. This is simply a great shame and humiliation for my Mu family. My father has nothing to do with this marriage. No matter what, I won’t agree to it, you should give up this intention as soon as possible!”
"Then please give up, dad. Even if I die, I, Mu Lian, will not marry into the Li family."
"You... you..." Mu Yucheng was so angry that Mu Lian was shaking all over, and shouted sternly, "I don't understand, how is that ordinary boy better than Bai Yi? What kind of medicine did he give you to make you do this? Is he so stubborn and stubborn? Moreover, you should know that the mortal boy is dead, so you should give up!"
"No! He's not dead, he's still alive, I can feel it!"
"Even if he is still alive, I will cut him into pieces!"
"That's fine! As soon as he dies, I will kill myself. You can separate us while alive, but you can't separate us after death, right?"
"You...you girl, it seems that you have become determined after eating the weight!"
"Dad is right! My daughter has already made up her mind. Even if she dies, she can't destroy my love for Wandong!"
"Okay! If that's the case, then you go and die! But I tell you, even if you die, I will marry your body to the Li family! Whether you are born as a member of the Li family, you must be a member of the Li family when you die. Home ghost!" After roaring, Mu Yucheng took out a short sword from his arms and threw it in front of Mu Lian.
Mu Lian obviously didn't expect that Mu Yucheng would be so cruel. She was stunned and tears flowed from her eyes like a tide. After a moment, Mu Lian let out a sigh, leaned down, and slowly picked up the dagger on the ground.
Looking at the sword blade that kept emitting a frightening cold light, Mu Lian had tears in her eyes and blood in her heart. She murmured, "Xiaodong, it seems that we really have no fate in this life. Lian'er has to take the first step today. But I hope that in the next life, we can continue the unfinished relationship in this life..."
"Sister, no!" Mu Tong was already outside the door. When he heard Mu Lian's murmur, he was shocked. He hurriedly broke the door and rushed in, snatching the dagger from Mu Lian's hand.
"Tong'er?" Mu Lian was stunned for a moment.
Everyone in the Mu family was afraid of Mu Yucheng, but Mu Tong was not afraid. At this moment, he turned around and glared at him angrily, and said in an unconcealed way, "Dad, sister is your biological daughter, how could you be like this?" Are you so cruel that you want to force her to commit suicide?"
"I... I..." Did Mu Yucheng really want to force Mu Lian to commit suicide? It was just to scare her, but she didn't expect that Mu Lian actually took it seriously and really wanted to commit suicide without hesitation. She pushed Mu Yucheng directly against the wall. At this time, she faced Mu Tong's questioning. , I don’t even know where to start if I want to explain.
And his annoyance, in Mu Tong's eyes, immediately turned into nothing. He threw the dagger out of the room, turned around and held Mu Lian's hand and said, "Sister, dad is old and confused, don't pay attention." he!"
"Tong'er, have you ever said that about your father?" Mu Yucheng pretended to be angry with a straight face. Looking at this posture, if he doesn't say anything, I'm afraid that his father will become even less dignified in front of Mu Tong.
Who knows, Mu Tong simply ignored his words, snorted coldly, and asked directly, "Do you treat your own daughter like this? You can't force your own daughter to commit suicide!"
"I... Okay, I don't care!" Mu Yu was speechless and angry, he simply shouted angrily, threw up his sleeves and walked out.
After walking out of the room, Mu Yucheng realized that Li Baiyi was also here. Facing Li Baiyi, Mu Yucheng really didn't know what to say. She shook her head at him with a wry smile, and said without embarrassment, "My dear nephew, you are here."
Li Baiyi hurriedly bowed down and chanted, "Li Baiyi pays homage to the master of the family."
Mu Yucheng personally helped him up and said bitterly, "What's wrong with the head of the house? I'd rather hear you call me daddy, but this girl Lian'er... Hey! My dear nephew, I'm afraid I need you to help me a little bit more." Great! Okay, you can talk to Lian'er again, I have official business, so I'm leaving now!"
After saying this, Mu Yucheng hurriedly walked away.
Li Baiyi looked at Mu Yucheng's back, feeling helpless in his heart. He couldn't tell that he wanted to disappoint Mu Yucheng. After adjusting his clothes, taking a long breath, Li Baiyi stepped into the room.
Mu Lian was currently being comforted by Mu Tong, sobbing. As soon as she saw Li Baiyi, she immediately turned her head away, wiped away her tears, showed a cold expression, and said, "Li Baiyi, I have already told you Now that you've made it clear, why are you still pushing me so hard? Are you willing to let it go only if I commit suicide?"
Worried about Li Baiyi's embarrassment, Mu Tong quickly smoothed things over and said, "Sister, Brother Li is here specifically to see you. Don't be like this!"
"Hmph! Who cares about him coming to see me? If he hadn't come, dad wouldn't have pushed me so hard!"
Mu Lian couldn't do anything to Mu Yucheng, but she vented all her anger on Li Baiyi. Mu Tong tried to persuade him but couldn't, so he had to smile apologetically at Li Baiyi.
If it had been before, Li Baiyi would have been particularly angry and depressed, but this time, everything seemed to have changed. Li Baiyi was not at all angry or depressed in his heart, but looking at Mu Lian's haggard and sad face, his heart ached.
I wonder if his mood changed after meeting Wandong. Many questions that I had always been unable to figure out seemed to suddenly come to light at this moment. To be honest, this made Li Baiyi feel a lot more relaxed.
"Tong'er, please go out first. I have a few words to say to your sister." Li Baiyi rushed back to Mu Tong.
"What kind of whispers are you going to throw me out?" Mu Tong said dissatisfied.
Li Baiyi smiled and said, "Obey, you will go out for a while."
Mu Tong reluctantly said, stood up, and walked out of the room with three turns.
After closing the door, Li Baiyi's eyes full of love fell on Mu Lian.
Mu Lian didn't appreciate it. She frowned and said with a frosty face, "If you have anything else to say to me, tell me quickly. Leave immediately after you finish speaking. I don't want to see you!"
Li Baiyi took a long breath and asked quietly, "Lian'er, tell me the truth. If there was no Wandong among us, would you choose me?"
"No!" Mu Lian answered straightforwardly without any hesitation.
This answer obviously made Li Baiyi a little unacceptable, and he asked anxiously, "But why is this?"
Mu Lian looked up at Li Baiyi and said, "Li Baiyi, do you think Wandong is the only obstacle between us? You are so confused! You don't even think about it. When I decided to escape from the marriage and go to the small world of the mortal world, I I didn’t know Wandong at all. It was only later that we fell in love and got together.”
Li Baiyi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't. There was a trace of disappointment and frustration on his face.
When Mu Lian saw this, she let out a sigh and said, "Li Baiyi, do you still remember that we had a very good relationship when we were children? I would always pester you and play with you. But I was going to You regard him as his biological brother, that is a relationship between brother and sister, not love! "
"So that's it..." Li Baiyi shook his head, with an extremely bitter smile on his face. (To be continued)
