Chapter 1740: Chapter 1733: Why Are You Here Again?

She felt that he was someone she could entrust herself to.

That’s why she allowed Zhuo Junli to break into her room and take her body before they were even married.

He was the Wenqu Star descended to earth, an unfathomable man whom no one could understand.

But sharing a bed with him every day, Yun Sijin felt she still couldn’t see through him.

The complex emotions in Yun Sijin’s eyes were as clear as day to Zhuo Junli.

He stroked Yun Sijin’s waist, lowered his head to rest against her forehead, and said softly, "Don’t worry, everything is under control. Ling’er will be fine, and your cousin... he will be fine too."

Zhuo Junli laughed lightly, making a joke with her.

Yun Sijin, however, stomped on his foot fiercely and then shut the door to her room.

Late at night, no matter how many nice words Zhuo Junli said outside the door, Yun Sijin did not let him into the room to sleep.

Poor Zhuo Junli, whose bright mind was like a pearl but, in terms of physical strength, dared not intrude into madam’s room and was forced to sleep in the study.

Lu Estate.

Lu Mian carried a lamp up to the loft, having sent away Leng Muling’s maidservant, leaving her alone here. Even though he sent a doctor over and provided food, Leng Muling was severely injured.

He thought to himself that this woman probably wouldn’t endure for long, and she would eventually have to beg him for mercy.

But when he pushed the door open, he found a slender figure in blue, curiously gazing at the moon outside the window.

The indifference in Lu Mian’s eyes instantly turned to gloom, and an evil thought even arose.

He wanted to strangle Leng Muling.𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Leng Muling had been locked up for several days, and as soon as she heard footsteps coming upstairs, she knew Lu Mian had arrived.

She turned her head, glanced at him coldly, then continued watching her moon.

"You can still sit up, indicating I wasn’t ruthless enough a few days ago."

Lu Mian squinted slightly, his eyes emitting cold beams.

Leng Muling’s head was still wrapped in thick gauze; her gaze icy as she looked at Lu Mian without fear, "You can just try hurting me again!

If you don’t manage to kill me, you will have to pay the price!

If I muster enough strength to send out a message, my uncle will accuse you, and you’ll lose your position! Then we’ll see how you stir up trouble in the royal court."

"You wish." Lu Mian sneered coldly.

He glanced at the medicine and food on the table, a natural sense of admiration for Leng Muling rose within him.

That stubborn young girl, her frame was small, but her spirit was unyielding.

Yet she was too inexperienced to find any flaw in Lu Mian to help her uncle against him!

As soon as Lu Mian left, a shadowy figure gracefully leaped into Leng Muling’s loft.

When Leng Muling saw him, her heart skipped a beat.

But she quickly pressed against her chest, turned her face, burying half of it in the embroidered pillow.

Mo Qi gently and silently brought her better medicine and food from the Prime Minister’s Estate.

He set up a small table and laid out the items one by one before Leng Muling.

Leng Muling’s voice trembled, "You... why have you come again?"

Wasn’t the agreement that they wouldn’t see each other again?

"It’s Prime Minister Zhuo."

Mo Qi’s Adam’s apple rolled, and he said in a low voice, "He sent me to protect you. He said... this is the safest way. If Lu Mian wants to harm you, I’ll take you directly back to the Prime Minister’s Estate."

No matter how Lu Mian and Zhuo Junli fought, for Leng Muling, he was willing to do anything to prevent her from being hurt.

"But you..."

Leng Muling bit her lip, difficult to speak, inwardly cursing her uncle hundreds of times!

Of all people, why did he send Mo Qi to protect her?
