Ah Man had made up her mind to leave, but she didn't expect that the Queen had turned around after hearing Murong Kai's voice, and her body also changed direction.
She couldn't help but look in the direction of Murong Kai. He had struggled to stand up and looked like he was about to run towards her.
"Ah Man, come back, I have something to tell you." He looked up and saw Ah Man looking at him. For a moment, he forgot what to do and just stared at Ah Man with a firm attitude.
"Akai, stop messing around. Ah Man is the Jiaoyang Princess of Bei'an. What could possibly happen between the two of you? What can you possibly say to each other?"
Concubine Jin was frightened by her son's behavior. She hurried to try to persuade him, but she felt inexplicably panicked.
Murong Kai glanced at Concubine Jin, and there was a chill in his eyes, which made Concubine Jin's heart tremble.
She still knows too little about her son...
"Ah Man, Ah Kai is a very stubborn kid. If you don't come over, he will really drag his injured leg over to you."
While the Queen was speaking, she was already supporting Murong Kai, with a look of heartache on her face.
Seeing Concubine Jin's wary look, Ah Man really wanted to leave. But when she thought about Murong Kai's legs, she couldn't bear it. So she simply didn't look in Concubine Jin's direction and slowly walked in front of Murong Kai.
The young man struggled to get up on the hospital bed, his face was still pale, but his eyes were as bright as stars in the night sky. Her shadow was reflected in his eyes, giving people the illusion of deep love.
"Mother, Mother, please go out first. I have something to say to Ah Man."
"Child, there is nothing you cannot let your mother know." Concubine Jin was unwilling at first. She was really afraid that Ah Man would bewitch Murong Kai's heart.
"Akai is a smart child. He knows clearly what to do and what not to do." The queen pulled Concubine Jin's sleeve to persuade her, but Concubine Jin was still unwilling and just stared at Murong Kai.
"There are so many things I have done over the years that your mother should know. But, does your mother know everything?" Murong Kai's words suddenly became sharper. When Concubine Jin heard this, her eyes were instantly filled with mist.
"Are you blaming me? Akai, mother..." Concubine Jin wanted to explain in a panic, but before she could finish her words, Murong Kai had already waved his hand.
"I am no longer old enough to be taught by my mother, so please go out."
Murong Kai seemed unable to see the sadness in Concubine Jin's expression. After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Ah Man.
Seeing Concubine Jin being scolded by her son, Ah Man was in a good mood. She watched Concubine Jin leave kindly, then she turned around and asked quietly: "Fortunately, there is nothing wrong between you and me, otherwise, I would really be regarded as a bad woman who instigated discord between you and your son."
Watching Concubine Jin leave with a look of grievance on her face, Ah Man had only this feeling in her heart, obedient, but also very curious.
"She just gave birth to me and never raised me for a day, so I won't let my woman suffer for her."
"You are so heartless."
Ah Man couldn't help but feel sorry for Concubine Jin, but Murong Kai just looked at her with a smile. He couldn't help but straighten out the messy strand of hair on her temples. When he saw that the hairstyle was neat and symmetrical, he nodded with satisfaction.
"A mother is kind and a son is filial. I don't feel my mother's love, so why should I be filial to her?" Murong Kai's words sounded like an answer. He spoke in a serious tone, but it seemed to be true.
"You kept me here just to say this?" Ah Man didn't think it was necessary for him to make his position clear to her. She was not related to him, and their future had nothing to do with each other.
"No." Murong Kai answered seriously, and then continued to ask: "I just want to know, how did you enter the palace?"
Ah Man regretted asking that question just now. Compared with this question, the one who stated his position obviously made her happier.
