The blade turned and did not pierce Lin Qing's heart. In the moment when he did not have time to stop completely, it cut Lin Qing's left chest, and the blood mark continued to the shoulder.
Blood immediately gushed out of the fair skin.
It was in stark contrast to Lin Qing's expression.
Lin Qing did not scream, but just looked at Xu Yuan steadily and said in a very low voice: "Xu Yuan, you don't have another chance."
Xu Yuan felt the blood flowing backwards all over her body, and even her head was numb. She didn't move, and turned her back to Mu Li, not daring to look back.
"No, nothing."
The tip of the dagger was stained with Lin Qing's blood, which slowly flowed down.
One drop, two drops, falling on the white sheets.
Mu Li stood at the door and couldn't see clearly what was happening here, but he could see Xu Yuan's back shaking violently, which was suspicious.
Lin Qing leaned on the bed, looking listless, with half of her head in Mu Li's sight. She didn't react much to Mu Li's voice, and quietly pulled the quilt up to her chin.
Just in time to block the wound.
The blood was still flowing, and the bed sheet under Lin Qing was probably stained red. Her face was already pale, and it was hard to tell what was wrong.
Mu Li caught a glimpse of something in Xu Yuan's hand, which was flashing with some light. He couldn't see it clearly for a moment, so he walked in.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense for a moment.
"What is that?" Mu Li frowned.
He was already feeling uncomfortable, and Chen Qudong's nonsense made his ears hurt.
Xu Yuan wanted to hide the fruit knife, but it was too late.
The footsteps behind me were approaching.
"What did the senior say to you?" Lin Qing suddenly spoke, and Xu Yuan trembled with fear.
Mu Li shifted his attention and looked at Lin Qing with a gloomy face: "What do you want him to say?"
Lin Qing was covered with a quilt, revealing only a haggard face, looking very pitiful. Her body was hidden under the quilt, and she seemed to move slightly.
"Of course I hope he won't say anything that will make you misunderstand me." Lin Qing's tone seemed more relaxed.
It looks like there’s nothing serious going on, Mu Li thought to himself.
Then he felt annoyed again. Why should he worry about this
Walking behind Xu Yuan, Mu Li looked into her hands.
His pupils suddenly tightened.
"You guys are really interested." He spoke in a cold voice, his breath so close to Xu Yuan that Xu Yuan held his breath and dared not breathe.
In Xu Yuan's hand, he was holding the diamond ring on Lin Qing's ring finger on her right hand.
"This is the wedding ring you gave me. Xu Yuan said she wanted to see it, so I showed it to her." Lin Qing explained calmly.
Can anyone take off the wedding ring if they want to see it
Mu Li stared at the ring for a long time with an unhappy look on his face.
"Do you often show your ring to other people?"
Seeing this, Lin Qing stretched out her fair right arm from the quilt, held out her hand and smiled sweetly: "It's only taken off this time. So put it on me now."
Her smile was pure, but a little sickly pale.
Only her smooth white arms were exposed, and her long hair only vaguely hid her shoulders. This posture was like some kind of fatal temptation.
Mu Li raised his eyebrows, but did not move: "You should also consider whether you are qualified."
Lin Qing was not angry and took the ring from Xu Yuan. She had been stabbed in the left chest and could not move easily, so she just took the ring and put her arm back into the quilt without putting it on.
The whole action still seems a lot more awkward.
Mu Li looked at Lin Qing for a long time, unable to tell what was wrong, and turned to look at Xu Yuan.
She was too quiet at the moment, which was not her usual style.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Mu Li grabbed Xu Yuan's arm and noticed that she was trembling.
Although she tried her best to conceal it, the knife really stabbed her.
No matter how good your mental state is, you will become uneasy when encountering such things.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Xu Yuan shook his head.
She tried to calm herself down, then raised her head and looked at Lin Qing.
It just so happened that Lin Qing was also looking at her carefully, and when they did, their eyes met.
"If you feel uncomfortable, go and rest for a while." Mu Li moved closer and pulled Xu Yuan into his arms.
His masculine scent was so steady that Xu Yuan suddenly thought of the scene of stabbing Lin Qing.
Can't leave, all the evidence is here.
So she gritted her teeth and said, "I still want to stay with Lin Qing for a while. I peeled an apple for her but haven't eaten it yet!"
Xu Yuan's tone was deliberately light, but perhaps because it was a bit exaggerated, Mu Li frowned slightly after hearing it.
Following Xu Yuan's words, his gaze moved to the exquisite fruit plate on the bedside, on which was an apple that Xu Yuan had just peeled.
"Lin Qing is not in a convenient position right now, so I cut it into small pieces." Xu Yuan pretended to be calm, smiled and handed the plate to Lin Qing.
After saying that, the smile on his lips suddenly froze.
Now that you’ve cut the apple, where’s the knife
It won't be long before Mu Li finds that there is not even a knife used to peel an apple in the room.
The knife was hidden under Lin Qing's body.
The blood has coagulated and turned dark red as time goes by.
Due to blood loss, Lin Qing's lips became paler.
Mu Li seemed to have noticed this as well.
"You..." Mu Li was about to speak but was interrupted by Lin Qing.
"Mu Li, I'm naked now... Can you go out for a while?" Lin Qing blinked, as if asking.
Mu Li raised his eyebrows and glanced at the collarbone exposed on Lin Qing's right shoulder: "Where are the clothes?"
"I just spilled water on it..." Lin Qing shrank his shoulders with an innocent look.
This means that Mu Li will definitely not leave. Xu Yuan couldn't help feeling jealous when he saw Lin Qing's coquettish look.
However, Mu Li was in a trance and didn't notice that he was already walking towards the door.
This scene seems familiar.
He suddenly remembered a scene where Lin Qing finished taking a shower and he was standing at the bathroom door.
At that time, Lin Qing seemed to have said that she was not wearing any clothes.
Mu Li stopped in his tracks and turned back suddenly to question him, only to find that he had already walked out of the room and the door was hastily closed.
There was an extra hint of darkness in his eyes.
The scene that just appeared in my mind, although I can't remember too many details, feels... very warm.
Yes, that's the feeling.
Including the decoration of this house, and seeing Lin Qing's slightly coquettish expression just now...
These were things he had never felt before.
Is that why he is so resistant
"I haven't finished what I want to say yet." Chen Qudong was a little slow before coming over from the study.
Mu Li rubbed his temple and pointed to the stairs: "No need to see you off."
"The person Lin Qing likes is me." Chen Qudong's tone was the same as before, which made Mu Li annoyed.
"So?" Mu Li crossed his arms.
"Please be merciful and let Lin Qing go. She is just an ordinary woman who needs ordinary happiness. You can't give her that." In the end, it still comes down to this.
Mu Li gestured to him to stop: "It's not that I won't let her go, Mr. Chen, you've seen it too, it's Lin Qing who's pestering me now."
That's true.
This time, Chen Qudong was determined to get Lin Qing out of this situation. He made up his mind, "Lin Qing and I have been together before. Only I can give her the happiness she wants."
He emphasized the three words "together", which obviously have a deeper meaning.
Mu Li’s brows turned cold.
"Mr. Chen, do you know that you are responsible for every word you say?"
Chen Qudong clenched his fists: "I know!"
Mu Li's lips curled up into a cold smile: "If what you said is true, I will make you report to the King of Hell before you can give that woman happiness."
"So what?" Chen Qudong trembled at Mu Li's intimidating aura, and insisted, "Nothing you say can hide the fact that Lin Qing and I are in love with each other! Now as long as you drive her away, she will never disturb your life again!"
Perhaps because Chen Qudong's tone was too genuine, Mu Li's face became even gloomier.
Have Lin Qing and Chen Qudong been together before
How is it like being together
Adoration? Hug? Kiss? Or... sex
Mu Li suddenly couldn't breathe. He couldn't imagine what Lin Qing looked like in someone else's arms.
Even if it was a woman he hated to the extreme, as long as she was on his household register, he would not allow anyone else to touch her!
Chen Qudong thought that Mu Li would let go after hearing this, but he saw Mu Li winking at somewhere behind him.
When he turned around, Mu Li's subordinates appeared here at some point and escorted Chen Qudong out the door.
Chen Qudong pounded on the door hard, but Wensi did not move.
If I had known earlier, I would have said it more harshly. He wouldn’t believe it, and Mu Li would have pushed Lin Qing away!
"Why are you helping me?" Xu Yuan looked suspicious in front of the bed.
Lin Qing changed into clean clothes, wiped off the blood on his body with the help of Xu Yuan, and treated the wound a little.
"Do you need a reason?" Lin Qing said with his arms exposed. The diamond ring on his right ring finger was very eye-catching.
"Yes." Xu Yuan's lips moved, and now they had a red color.
She returned to her normal expression and became wary of Lin Qing.
Just now, when Mu Li walked behind her and was about to see the blood-stained fruit knife, Lin Qing endured the pain, took the knife away and hid it under the quilt.
If it was one second later, Mu Li would definitely find out.
Lin Qing originally had the opportunity to tell the truth, and he could even shout for help the moment Mu Li opened his mouth.
Xu Yuan was completely confused about this.
"Okay, then I'll tell you." Lin Qing leaned against the head of the bed, the quilt moved to her waist, her upper body looked very thin, her lips opened and closed, her voice was as light as a wing, "The only thing I feel sorry for you for is that you broke your leg while trying to help me in my junior year, so now, you stab me and we're even."
Lin Qing's words awakened Xu Yuan's memory.
In her vague impression, it seemed that such an incident really happened, but Xu Yuan could no longer remember the details.
None of this matters anymore.
What is important is that—
"Xu Yuan, we owed each other nothing from the beginning. Don't use those words to disgust me again."
This knife should be regarded as the one she suffered for the friendship we had in the past.
Because of my lack of perspective, I wasted the sisterhood I had built over the past few years.
No matter how deep the sisterly love is, it can't resist the arrogance of a man.
After all, there was no way they could reach an agreement.
Xu Yuan sneered and looked at Lin Qing: "Since you want to do this, well, Lin Qing, let's see who can go the whole way!"
Xu Yuan's eyes were fierce, but Lin Qing's were as clear as water.
"I will definitely accompany you." Lin Qing opened his lips slightly, a little tired, "I am a little tired, please ask Miss Xu to leave first."
Xu Yuan took one last look at the fruit knife that had been washed clean of the blood stains and placed on the bedside table, then raised his face and left proudly.
When I opened the door, Mu Li was standing at the door.
Xu Yuan's eyes softened instantly: "Li, I feel a little tight in my chest, would you like to go for a walk with me?"
She pressed against Mu Li's chest, panting and trying to push Mu Li down the stairs.
Mu Li stopped and looked down at her: "You go down first."
It is an unquestionable decision.
