Mu Tingting truly wanted to help Mu Ruyue?
No!
At the moment when Mu Yixue swung her hand to hit Mu Ruyue, she noticed two people walking into the courtyard. One of them was her lover, Ye Tianfeng, while the other was an elder with an immortal aura.
Seeing Ye Tianfeng's respectful demeanor, she could faintly guess the elder's identity.
"Sister Ting'er!" Mu Yixue's eyes were filled with grievance and tears, "Sister Ting'er, you actually scold me and refuse to recognize me for this waste. What is so good about this waste? You are so good to her, and she has never appreciated it. She even always insults you as an adopted daughter, unworthy to stay in the Mu Family."
"Xue'er, no matter what, we are family. Family should be harmonious. Your methods should be reserved for outsiders."
Mu Tingting furrowed her delicate brows, clearly displeased with Mu Yixue's words.
"Moreover, she is not wrong. I am just an adopted daughter without the Mu family's bloodline."
From beginning to end, Mu Ruyue merely stood with her arms crossed, watching the drama unfold.
Mu Tingting was indeed a good actress, allowing her to savor the drama, but...
Mu Ruyue slightly narrowed her eyes. She had ignored their provocations time and again because she never took them seriously. However, even if she didn't take them seriously, it didn't mean she would tolerate them.
"I think you all got something wrong. A man like Ye Tianfeng, even if presented to me, I wouldn't spare him a glance. Moreover, my father heard in the Golden Throne Hall that it wasn't the Royal Family that annulled the marriage; it was me, Mu Ruyue, who didn't want to marry a man full of germs. So, Mu Tingting, congratulations on picking up my discarded trash. I heard there are two concubines in the Prince Mansion and possibly more in the future. By then, you'll be covered in germs too. Oh, by the way, I wonder if Ye Tianfeng has a fetish for bedding two women in one night. I'm really looking forward to seeing your expression when you catch your husband in bed with another woman."
Whoosh!
Mu Tingting's face immediately turned pale, her delicate body swaying like a fragile boat in the wind.
She loved Ye Tianfeng, loved him very much. Now, just thinking about her beloved man lying in bed with another woman made her heartache so much that she wished she could die immediately.
If she truly witnessed such a scene in the future, she wondered if she would have the courage to live on.
Mu Qing's face changed dramatically. He was just about to explode in anger when a shout came from behind Mu Ruyue, full of uncontrollable rage.
"Mu Ruyue, what did you say!"
As Ye Tianfeng spoke, he had already embraced Mu Tingting's frail body, his deep eyes filled with pity, "Ting'er, don't listen to her nonsense. How could I have such a fetish?"
"Princely Heir," Mu Tingting held tightly onto Ye Tianfeng's hand, her eyes brimming with tears, "in the future, will you allow other women into the mansion? Will you do those things with them? Will you let them bear your children?"
Ye Tianfeng was stunned, pressing his thin lips tightly, not knowing how to respond.
Gradually, the hope in Mu Tingting's eyes dimmed, and tears flowed down her tender cheeks.
He claimed to love her, yet while loving her, he also boarded the ship with other women. Is this what love is?
Love is selfish. She wasn't willing to share the man she loved with anyone else.
The feeling of sharing with others made her feel as if countless swords were piercing through her body.
"Ting'er, don't worry. I will always treat you well," Ye Tianfeng tightly held her frail body in his embrace, "you will always be my most beloved woman."
But, will he really treat her well for a lifetime?
What she wanted was for him to belong only to her for a lifetime.
