Chapter 539: No Face
Chapter 539: No Face
At this moment, the footsteps of two people outside the door suddenly stopped, followed by the sound of an argument between them.
"Brother Bai! You don't need to say anything! No matter what, she must go! How could you be so foolish? How dare you bring an unidentified person back to the mansion and put her in Yu'er's room? Don't you know what kind of impact this will have on you and me? I have decided, you have to find a way to send her away as soon as possible!"
"Brother! She is Junior Sister's best friend!"
"Haha! A close friend? A close friend who hasn't visited for decades? Junior Sister is her savior! How can she be called a close friend if she hasn't visited for so many years? Besides, you also know what happened last night. If she is really one of the evil women from Blind Mountain, you and I will be implicated! We don't need to risk our future for Junior Sister's so-called 'close friend'!"
"No! Senior Brother! I believe that Miss Mu is definitely not an accomplice of that Blind Mountain Vicious Woman! She is definitely not that kind of person!"
"Junior Brother Bai! You are too naive! As the saying goes, you can never know a person's heart by his appearance! People change! How do you know she is not that kind of person after not seeing her for so many years? Besides, she may not be a good person! At the very least, she is an ungrateful person! Otherwise, why hasn't she come to see Junior Sister once in all these years? Junior Sister saved her life! Now she is injured and comes here again. I think she is just seeking shelter! She has ulterior motives!"
Although the two of them lowered their voices, their voices were clearly transmitted into the room! Hua Qianyu's words stabbed into Mu Chun's heart like a knife! It made her feel ashamed! Although Hua Qianyu's words were a bit harsh, they were reasonable! She couldn't explain it, and she was powerless to explain it! Because no matter how she explained, it would be considered as quibbling!
She wanted to struggle and get up, but she didn't move! She didn't know how to face Hua Qianyu, she just hoped that he would leave as soon as possible! Once he left, she would crawl out of the Hua Mansion even if she had to!
"Big Brother! Can you...at least wait until she can get out of bed before letting her go?"
Bai Yunli is still arguing!
"Humph! Wait until she can get out of bed? You don't even think about it. If she is indeed the accomplice of the Blind Mountain Poisonous Woman, and if the news of her staying in the Hua Mansion gets out, then, can you bear the crime of harboring a suspect? Stop talking nonsense! For the sake of my junior sister, I have done my best by not handing her over! She must not be left in the Hua Mansion!
This woman annoys me, I won't go see her! Hurry up, don't blame me for being rude when the time comes!"
"Big Brother! Big Brother!"
Then the footsteps sounded again. Even though Bai Yunli kept calling out, the footsteps gradually faded away until they disappeared!
Mu Chun knew that Hua Qianyu had left, so he immediately struggled to get out of bed and slowly moved towards the door!
During the whole process, Hua Yu neither stopped nor helped. She just blinked and watched quietly.
The noise in the room finally caught the attention of Bai Yunli, who was standing outside in a daze, and rushed into the room. Seeing Mu Chun got out of bed, he was shocked! It seemed that Mu Chun had already woken up and must have heard the conversation between him and Hua Qianyu. It was obvious that she was going to leave on her own! But it was good this way, he didn't know how to tell her. Now that she heard it herself, it saved him from embarrassment!
But seeing her chest oozing blood again and her pale face covered with sweat, he finally couldn't bear it! He grabbed Muchun's arm and whispered:
"Ms. Mu...Ms. Mu! You...you..."
"Thank you so much, Brother Bai, for your rescue! I'll leave now!"
Mu Chun spoke weakly while trying to push Bai Yunli's hand away.
"Miss Mu! I'm... sorry! Do you have a place to stay in Tianxing City? Where is it? I'll take you there right now!"
Bai Yunli tightly grasped Muchun's arm, unwilling to let go! Muchun felt that he had no strength to walk out of this room, let alone walk out of Hua Mansion! He could only helplessly say:
"Then... then I'll have to trouble Brother Bai... Senior Brother Bai to escort... escort me out of Hua Mansion!"
Mu Chun didn't say yes or no, but just vaguely asked me to send her out of Hua Mansion. That means she has no place to stay in Tianxing City! With Mu Chun's current condition, if I send her out, even if she doesn't die, she will fall into the hands of other city guards!
You know, Tianxing City is currently searching the entire city. If she falls into the hands of other city guards, even if she is not an accomplice of the Blind Mountain Poison Woman, she will probably not be able to survive! After all, so many city guards have died, and if they can't find the Blind Mountain Poison Woman, they have to find someone to take the blame! Because this is related to the face of the City Lord's Mansion! What's more, Mu Chun is seriously injured and she is a woman, so she is the most suitable person to take the blame!
But now that the eldest brother has made a decision, he dare not disobey! He didn't know what to do for a moment, so he could only support Muchun and walk towards the door!
At this moment, Hua Yu suddenly shouted:
"Uncle Master! Wait a minute! I'm going to find my father!"
Bai Yunli couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this! If anyone could persuade Hua Qianyu now, it would probably be Hua Yu! Hua Yu lost her mother when she was young, so Hua Qianyu doted on her! He was afraid that she would be wronged, and he would try his best to meet her requests.
However, Mu Chun shook his head and said:
"Thank you very much, Miss Hua! But...but I...I must..."
"Aunt! Yu'er wants to hear you tell me about my mother, but they... they won't tell me anything! Please, stay and tell me, okay? Yu'er begs you!"
Without waiting for Mu Chun to answer, the little girl said to Bai Yunli:
"Uncle Master! Help Auntie lie down quickly and wait for me to come back!"
After saying that, he rushed out the door!
Mu Chun didn't think that a child's words would have any impact on Hua Qianyu. Of course, she also felt that she had no face to stay here. Seeing Hua Yu leave, she said to Bai Yunli:
"Bai... Senior Brother Bai! Let's go!"
Bai Yunli would never believe that Mu Chun was the accomplice of the Blind Mountain Poisonous Woman! Of course, even if Mu Chun was the accomplice of the Blind Mountain Poisonous Woman, for the sake of his dead junior sister, he would try his best to rescue her! Although he was also a little angry that Mu Chun had not visited his junior sister for so many years, he believed that she must have a reason!
When the junior sister was alive, she had mentioned her in front of him more than once. She said how good she was, how pitiful she was! He also missed her so much, and wanted to take good care of her! He believed in the junior sister's vision and would not make a mistake! If he sent her out of the house now, how would the junior sister look at him? That's right! It's hard to disobey the orders of the senior brother, but now that Yu'er has come forward, isn't there room for maneuver?
In fact, if Hua Yu hadn't said that, he had planned to stay with Mu Chun and help take care of the little sister! If he really encountered other city guards searching, then the worst that could happen was that he would risk his life! He believed that if the little sister was still alive, she would definitely support his approach!
However, now that there is a possibility for her to stay in Hua Mansion to recuperate, they naturally don't need to take risks! He understands Mu Chun's feelings at this moment. Anyone with a sense of shame, after hearing what Hua Qianyu said, can't continue to stay in Hua Mansion! But with Mu Chun's current condition, going out is tantamount to committing suicide! Therefore, he will not agree to Mu Chun's request. He immediately said to Mu Chun sincerely:
"Ms. Mu! I understand how you feel! But can you please wait for a moment until Yu'er comes back?"
In fact, Mu Chun didn't want to stay any longer! Firstly, Hua Qianyu's words made her feel ashamed, and she felt ashamed to stay in the Hua Mansion. Secondly, she was afraid of implicating Bai Yunli. Since Hua Qianyu had already issued an order to expel her, would he revoke the order because of a child's request? Letting a child go to him to plead for him would probably increase his disgust! What would he think? He must have believed that Hua Yu was instigated by himself and Bai Yunli! It would be fine for herself, anyway, Hua Qianyu had a prejudice against her. But this would inevitably implicate Bai Yunli!
Of course, she didn't think a child could convince Hua Qianyu. Even if Hua Qianyu agreed to let her stay, how could she have the face to stay? Therefore, she should leave immediately no matter what!
