"Even if something happened, this is the Li family. Yun'er is carrying his child. What else could he do?"
Zhao Ruolan glanced at Qing Muye, who had gone upstairs, nudged Li Fu'an with her elbow, and whispered, "Why don't we take this opportunity to deepen the relationship between the young couple?"
"This..."
Li Fu'an frowned, pouted, and after a moment's thought, nodded, "Hmm, that's a good idea."
Unaware of the thoughts of the two downstairs, Li Yun'er and Qing Muye naturally didn't know.
Qing Muye walked to the bedroom on the second floor and raised his hand to knock, but in the end, he just turned the doorknob and walked in.
"Get out! I told you to get out, can't you hear me?"
As soon as he walked in, Li Yun'er's roar sounded from the bedroom, accompanied by a pillow that was thrown, hitting Qing Muye directly.
Qing Muye waved his hand, throwing the pillow onto the floor.
The bedroom was decorated in a pink princess style, with a heart-shaped princess bed, its canopy hanging from the ceiling to the soft pink carpet. Several stuffed animals were scattered around.
Everything exuded the sweet aura of a pure young girl.
The exquisitely and luxuriously decorated bedroom was not affected by the small fire the previous night. All the furniture in the room had been replaced, and everything was as good as new.
Qing Muye looked at Li Yun'er lying on the bed, wrapped in a thin quilt, her back to the door, lying on her side.
He strode over, looking down at the little woman, his eyes radiating terrifying coldness.
"I told you to get out, can't you..."
Feeling someone entering, Li Yun'er couldn't help but feel angry. She turned her head and shouted again.
But halfway through her words, she suddenly realized that the person standing by the bed was... "Mu... Brother Muye, why... why are you here?"
She suddenly sat up from the bed, her face pale with fright, but she didn't forget to pull the thin quilt around herself.
Her beautiful eyes, nine-tenths similar to Meng Jingwei's, showed panic and fear. But when she truly felt that the person in front of her was Qing Muye, all her unease and fear instantly disappeared.
The next second, she pounced to the bedside, hugged Qing Muye's waist, and burst into tears, "Wuwu... Brother Muye, you're finally here, wuwu..."
Her crying was heartfelt, choked with sobs, hysterical, and pitiable.
But no matter how sadly she cried, Qing Muye's cold heart remained unmoved.
He stood like a statue. Only after the woman in his arms stopped crying did he ask, "Are you done crying?"
Li Yun'er sniffled, bit her red lip, and opened her swollen eyes to look at Qing Muye. She belatedly realized that his expression today was terrifyingly cold.
This...
Was he here to demand an explanation?
"Brother Muye, why... why did you suddenly come today?"
Li Yun'er knew very well that Qing Muye had barely visited Longxi Villa after their engagement. Even though she had urged him repeatedly, he would only come in for a moment and then leave.
Qing Muye's handsome face was etched with bone-chilling coldness. He raised his hand and hooked her chin, "Is there anything you want to tell me, hmm?"
"I... say? I... Brother Muye, I don't know what you mean."
Feeling the overwhelming pressure, Li Yun'er knew that Qing Muye was definitely here to demand an explanation today.
Could it be that Meng Jingwei, that bitch, had revealed everything?
Then what happened yesterday...
No, Brother Muye definitely didn't know what happened yesterday. Otherwise, with his status as the heir of the Qing Corporation, he would never have allowed Meng Jingwei to be so presumptuous.
Li Yun'er guessed that Meng Jingwei must have told Qing Muye about 'intentionally causing a car accident,' but she had definitely not mentioned being kidnapped by Meng Jingwei.
With that, her hanging heart finally settled.
"Don't know, or don't want to say?"
Qing Muye rubbed her chin with his thumb, his obsidian-like eyes fixed on Li Yun'er, and questioned her in a deep voice.
His magnetic voice slowly uttered, like a wooden fish, gently striking her heartstrings, causing her heart to race and her tension to become almost suffocating.
"I... I..."
Li Yun'er nervously swallowed, her hands involuntarily clutching the thin quilt. Her watery eyes were filled with innocence and pity, but her eyes hid unconcealed hatred and anger.
Meng Jingwei!
Meng Jingwei, you bitch, why are you doing this to me?
Isn't it enough to ruin everything I have? Must you make Qing Muye hate me too?!
How can you be so venomous?
"I'm sorry, Brother Muye... I'm sorry..."
Li Yun'er knew she couldn't escape. She closed her eyes powerlessly, letting tears stream from her eyes, and lowered her head in despair, "I was blinded by greed. I knew Meng Jingwei was living with you... living in the Night Serenade apartment, and I... became jealous, so I... impulsively wanted to do that..."
She was smart.
She knew that lying to Qing Muye at this moment would only make him dislike her, so she had to admit it obediently.
After all, even if she didn't say it, Qing Muye could find out everything.
"Brother Muye... I know I was wrong, but I was scared, wuwu... I was afraid I would lose you. I love you, I really love you too much, wuwu..."
She clutched Qing Muye's wrist with both hands, begging pitifully and miserably, like a child about to be abandoned, her eyes full of sorrow and pity.
Her beautiful face was tear-streaked, making her look incredibly moving.
Little did she know that Qing Muye had always been heartless. How could he be moved by a few drops of a woman's tears?
"You could poison your own sister, do you also want to kill me?"
The outside world praised Li Yun'er endlessly, calling her 'a beauty of unparalleled grace, a talented woman of overwhelming charm, peerlessly beautiful, talented and accomplished.' Qing Muye heard the outside world's praise for Li Yun'er almost every day.
But after interacting with her, he realized how hypocritical this woman was, with a venomous heart and devilish cruelty that was outrageous.
"No, no. Brother Muye, I love you. I was just too concerned about you and lost my mind. I'm sorry, wuwu..."
She shook her head like a rattle drum, and finally stood up and knelt on the bed, holding Qing Muye's hand, begging without any pretense, "I was just jealous of Jingwei and it clouded my judgment. However... I regret it now, I really regret it. I swear, I swear I will never touch a hair on her again, wuwu... I will... I will definitely keep my word."
"Do you know why she is living in the Night Serenade apartment?"
Qing Muye stood tall, his eyes full of disgust, and added, "Because she was afraid that you would try to kill her while she slept. That's why she grudgingly agreed to move into the Night Serenade apartment."
As intelligent as he was, he had long known the reason why Meng Jingwei had moved into the Night Serenade apartment, but he had never spoken it out loud.
"I thought you would know when to restrain yourself, but I didn't expect you to be so obstinate. I think this marriage is unnecessary." He uttered a warning.
"No!"
Li Yun'er panicked. She immediately got off the bed, her bare feet stepping on the Persian carpet, and knelt before him again. "Brother Muye, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I know I've disappointed you, but I have our child in my womb. You have to consider our child. She can't... she can't lose her father at such a young age... wuwu..."
