Chapter 1736: Chapter 1729: She Met Mo Qi

Zhuo Junli raised an eyebrow and pointed with the tip of the fan at Lu Mian, “Lord Lu, please put on your clothes first. I can’t stand seeing the wound on your chest.”

When Zhuo Junli saw Lu Mian, he knew he had been too intense in his bedroom activities and was delayed in coming out to meet him.

But the news he received was that Leng Muling had nearly died.

He went back and forth with Lu Mian, who patiently dealt with him, eventually yawning and having someone see him out.

Standing at the gates of the Lu residence, Zhuo Junli’s eyes were extremely dark and brooding.

Inside the carriage outside the Lu residence, Yun Sijin lifted a corner of the curtain and asked with concern, “What’s going on?”

“The message was just a patch of blood, nothing written. I tried to pry, but Lu Mian’s mouth could drive someone mad in the middle of the night.”

Zhuo Junli shook his fan as he got into the carriage.

Today, he wouldn’t be able to see Leng Muling.

Yun Sijin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “Could it be that Lu Mian has harmed Ling’er…”

Zhuo Junli’s brows furrowed deeply, “Perhaps. He is a man and Ling’er’s husband. They must perform the duties of a married couple. If Ling’er does not comply, she would be criticized for lacking virtue.”

It’s natural for a wife to attend to her husband’s bedroom needs.

Back when he sent Leng Muling off to get married, he had subtly warned her not to believe Lu Mian was a true gentleman, who merely promised not to touch her.

But Leng Muling didn’t believe it; she said she wouldn’t marry anyone else, so her purity didn’t matter.

Now it was him and Yun Sijin who were anxious like ants on a hot pan.

“Lu Mian isn’t that careless. He has a cleanliness obsession.”

Yun Sijin unintentionally revealed Lu Mian’s habits.

She was about to retract her words, feeling something was amiss, but Zhuo Junli had already glanced over at her.

Yun Sijin’s lips twitched slightly, “You wouldn’t be upset because of this, would you?”

Zhuo Junli scoffed, “I’m not an idiot. What’s there to be upset about? You’ve known him for ten years, you not knowing his habits would be more surprising.”

Yun Sijin breathed a sigh of relief, knowing Zhuo Junli wasn’t upset about this, and felt somewhat reassured.

However, she understood Lu Mian; she knew tonight Leng Muling likely suffered more than just bleeding from bedroom matters.

Yet she and Zhuo Junli had no grounds to force their way into the Lu residence to see Leng Muling.

The songbird they used for communication would likely be discovered by Lu Mian as well.

Leng Muling was unconscious for three whole days, during which she thought she would never wake again.

But in her daze, it seemed she heard Mo Qi calling her.

“Ling’er… Ling’er, wake up!”

Mo Qi looked at the young lady resting on his knee, and she slowly opened her eyes. He held back tears at the corners of his eyes.

“Ling’er, are you alright?”

Mo Qi’s rich voice startled Leng Muling.

“I… I… What is this…”

What’s going on?

How is Mo Qi here before her eyes?

Didn’t she die?

Leng Muling grasped Mo Qi’s hand and bit it hard.

Mo Qi furrowed his brow slightly, seeing her like this, suspecting she was hungry, “Do you want something to eat? I’ll get you some.”

Mo Qi gently placed her back on the bed, turned, and brought over a small bowl of porridge for her.

It was the golden millet porridge she loved the most from the Leng family; the millet was grown by the Leng family, and only she drank it.

The millet porridge entered her mouth, warm and soft, its grainy texture sliding down her throat, and Leng Muling was shocked to realize—she was not dead! She was even eating the millet porridge Mo Qi brought her!

“Cough… cough!”

Leng Muling almost choked while drinking.
