When good luck comes, heaven and earth will work together for you; when bad luck comes, everyone will desert you.
In a blink of an eye, Qin Yun was at the end of his road.
He could only watch as Mu Liuling took the ring from his hand, and then took his last breath in this cold world...
If he loses the March appointment, he will naturally lose everything.
His eyes widened, his head tilted slightly, and he died...
Qin Yun is dead.
In the decisive battle tonight at the top of the Forbidden City, the winner is Mu Liuling after all. The rumored scene of "Don't bully the poor young man" and the slapping in the face, after all... did not happen.
Perhaps, the things in those biographies have never received any special "treatment" in the present world...
If it didn’t happen, it didn’t happen.
Mu Liuling looked at Qin Yun's corpse, and her whole body relaxed all of a sudden. At that moment, she felt that some kind of shackles on her body were completely broken, but at the same time, she inevitably revealed a trace of confusion in her eyes. All kinds of memories and emotions suddenly surged up like a tide...
…
Mu Niang: "Ling'er, the child of the Qin family and you are childhood sweethearts. Tell me yourself, what is wrong with Qin Yun? You two have been childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship. If you marry him, you will enjoy the rest of your life. What are you worried about?"
Father Mu: "Ling'er, don't be willful! This marriage was arranged by your grandfather. We are marrying up! Why are you hesitating at the last minute? Is it because... you have someone you love?"
…
Mu family.
"Genius! Qin Yun is truly the greatest genius in Tianjue City since ancient times! He is already at the Mingyuan realm at the age of fourteen. We have really found a treasure in this marriage!"
"The old man is very far-sighted and arranged a marriage for her... Wonderful! So wonderful!"
"From today on, all benefits for Liu Ling will be doubled! Also, assign more people to monitor him. No other men are allowed to get close to Liu Ling. Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy!"
“Second!”
“No objection!”
…
Mu family.
"Haha... I'm so happy today. Qin Yun and Liu Ling's engagement party is finally over. This marriage is almost certain!"
"My Mu family will have another strong reinforcement!"
…
Mu family.
"Mom... what does arranged marriage mean? Liu Ling... will she marry that fierce older brother when she grows up?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid! Yun'er is a gentle and polite child. How can she be fierce?"
"But he was in front of me..."
"What does a kid know! Don't you like Yun'er?"
"I... I, Liu Ling doesn't like him... He, he's so fierce, gets angry at the slightest provocation, and even pushed me down, mom, it hurts! I don't want to marry him..."
"Silly child, Qin Yun is a rare genius. The elders of the family all say that he is blessed with good fortune and will become a great man in the future. If you follow him, you will be a superior person in the future. What's wrong with that..."
"But, but... He is a superior person, what does it have to do with me?"
…
Qin family.
Qin Yun: "Mu Liuling, listen carefully. Since we are already engaged, you belong to me, Qin Yun! You must respect me, Qin Yun, in everything! Tomorrow, my second uncle who is on duty in the court will come to the Qin family. You should come with him. I can't just rely on my sister to hold the scene, right? Although you are a thin willow, you can still make up the number!"
"…Okay, what else do you want me to do?"
"Well... Pay attention during the meal. When you see me, you must kneel down and look timidly. You cannot raise your head. You must look up at me the whole time! When I say pour wine, you must pour wine. When I say pat my back, you must pat my back. You must obey my orders. Do you understand? You cannot let Second Uncle think that I have a low status in the Qin family. Do you understand?"
"… "
"Also, you have to change your name, Brother Yun, Husband... You choose it yourself!"
"… "
"Why are you silent? Do you still have respect for others? Slut! You don't listen to me? Come back here!"
…
Mu family.
"Damn it! I never thought Qin Yun would fall to this point... Is this marriage going to..."
"Hey... Liu Ling, what do you mean?"
"...Uncle, elders...Liu Ling feels that no matter what, if we cancel the engagement at this time, it would be like adding insult to injury, which is too unfair...Even if we want to cancel the engagement, we should at least wait for some time...Liu Ling, please have a clear conscience."
"That's true. After all, the Qin family still has power, so it's not appropriate to turn against them. Let's wait and see..."
"… "
…
Qin family.
"Mu Liuling! Who do you think you are? Do you think you are worthy of sympathizing with me?"
In the scene of the memory, Qin Yun's eyes were fierce and his expression was ferocious. He pointed to the sky and the ground with both hands, as if he was invincible.
"Yes, I, Qin Yun, am indeed in trouble now, but it is not the turn of a woman to comfort me! Humph, don't think I don't know what you are thinking - you must be laughing at me, mocking me, thinking that I am pitiful and humble! Do you think I don't know? You are just satisfying your vanity through this reversal!"
"Or maybe, you are just a slut who is taking a gamble, and you are pretending to be so because you want the power of the Qin family? Haha, do you think you can hide this little trick from me?"
"Perhaps you are the one who caused the unexpected change that happened to me! Yes, yes, you have always been at odds with me, so that's it... so that's it!"
"But Mu Liuling, let me tell you, things change over time! Don't look down on young people because they are poor! Don't forget, Mr. Youfang once said that I, Qin Yun, am the son of destiny! Even if I am in trouble for a while, I will eventually have my chance, and I will be like a true dragon that can escape and soar into the sky! When the time comes, I will use facts to tell everyone that I, Qin Yun, am not someone that low-class people like you can sympathize with!"
"When the time comes, this hatred will be repaid a hundredfold!"
…
Mu family.
"Liu Ling! You actually ran away from home? Do you still have the Mu family in your eyes? At the beginning, you were the one who said that it was not appropriate to cancel the engagement, and now you are the one who wants to run away from home! What do you mean?"
"Great Elder, Liu Ling's meaning is very simple... I'm just tired."
The Mu Liuling in my memory was so disheartened and devastated.
"I'm tired..."
"Tired of being the fiancée."
"I am tired of serving as a foil to Qin Yun's halo."
"I'm tired of this marriage where I can't make the decision."
"Tired of everything he did to humiliate me."
"Tired...Stand beside him."
Mu Liuling looked dazed, as if he was asking a question, but also as if he was not asking for an answer at all...
"Why? Why does he think that staying together is natural and that supporting each other is compassion? Why does he feel at ease and yet he uses his sensitive self-esteem to humiliate me?"
"I owe him what he deserves because he died a genius! Elders, Patriarchs, Uncles, answer me! Why did he treat me like this, yet still asked me to 'never leave' and 'support each other through thick and thin'? And why did you still tell me to 'wait till the clouds clear and the moon appears'..."
"Why can't I get tired? Why can't I just walk away?"
After these words fell, the Mu family in the memory was speechless. Finally, it was Mu Hongyi who spoke...
"Let her go! She will regret it someday and come to me crying!"
…
Memories come like the rising tide and go like the receding tide.
Mu Liuling looked at Qin Yun, who had lost his life, and saw that he was unwilling to close his eyes when he died. He murmured in a low voice: "Master, it seems that Liuling will never regret it..."
"because… "
She paused, a warm smile forming on her lips.
"Liu Ling... met the young master."
Mu Liuling murmured this with a faint blush on her face, like a happy little woman who finally found her home...
