Chapter 881: The Mu Family Came to Visit V

His gaze fell onto the young man who was standing on the surface of the water. His eyes darkened and there seemed to be an indescribable secret in his eyes.

In the pavilion.

Little Qing Han raised her little head. She looked up at Suyi innocently.

"Grandma Suyi, how did Father know that Mother is here? Mother didn't want him to know and that's why she didn't tell her."

Suyi was stunned.

Why would Nan Xian know about her whereabouts when Feng Ruqing did not tell him herself?

"Qing Han, you don't have to ask anymore. I know now."

Feng Ruqing closed her eyes slowly. She opened her eyes after a while.

No wonder...

No wonder she slept so soundly when she was at Fengyun Manor.

But what Nan Xian didn't know was that she was still aware of her surroundings even when in deep sleep.

Feng Ruqing thought that she had felt that way because she missed Nan Xian deeply.

But, it seemed not to be the truth after much consideration.

Was the state preceptor following her?

Suyi seemed baffled. She did not know what had happened.

"Qing'er..."

"Suyi!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice interrupted Suyi.

She became tense and cold. Her coldness was filled with a feeling of distancing herself from the rest of the world.

"Suyi, are you back? Really?"

It was evening now.

There was only the sound of the night breeze in the manor.

Mu Ling's gaze fell on Suyi. He seemed delighted and excited.

Unknowingly, Suyi felt that his excitement was faked. It was disgusting.

"You're the young manor master of the Mu family. How could you intrude upon us without asking for our permission?" Suyi laughed coldly. Then, she got up.

Feng Ruqing seemed calm. She got up slowly and held Suyi's cold hand.

Feng Ruqing knew that Suyi would surely be troubled by the Mu family if she ever came back to Tian Shen Manor.

That was why she did not want Suyi to be a part of this.

But still, the Mu family came in the end!

"Suyi, why didn't you inform me about your return?" Mu Ling frowned slightly. "If you had told me, I would have ordered someone to go and fetch you."

Suyi tilted her head and looked at Mu Ling calmly. "Are you satisfied with the concubine I have sent you? If you're not, I don't mind sending you more concubines. Oh, that's right. I have forgotten about that. You're infertile now."

Mu Ling's face darkened. He clenched his fists tightly. "You're really the one who has done that, Suyi! You were not like that in the past. When did you become so cruel?"

Mu Ling went to meet Suyi because he wanted to talk with her calmly. But, what Suyi had said hurt him. The excitement on his face disappeared completely.

"Suyi, don't forget that you're the young lady of the Mu family!" Mu Ling was infuriated. "What good does it bring you even if you did that?"

Suyi smiled calmly. "Don't you want to continue pretending here?"

"You..." Mu Ling was outrageous. "Suyi, why don't you learn from Qingyan. You have always claimed that Qingyan cannot be compared to you. But, she has been managing the entire Mu family in an orderly manner. The entire household praises her. Did any of the elders or servants praise you when you were there before? They were filled with complaints."

Suyi clenched her fists tightly. Her face paled.

The old master had always been weak since the beginning. Therefore, he had given Suyi the right to manage the entire Mu family.
