Chapter 71: Evil plot
Ever since what happened at the Ma residence, Mu Jingchao stayed quiet at home for a while and no longer made excuses to go out.
Mrs. Mu got embarrassed last time and she felt annoyed when she saw him. She didn't let anyone see her for several days after she came back.
Mu Jingchao finally relaxed. He was afraid that his mother would ask him to meet some Miss Gao. It was not that he was unfilial, but that person was really ugly and he was afraid that it would affect his daughter's appearance.
That day, Mu Jingchao went out for a drink with a group of friends. On the way back, when he walked to the entrance of the alley, he saw a girl squatting there feeding a kitten.
The girl smiled and gently stroked the kitten, saying softly, "Kitten, eat slowly, there is still a lot!"
There was a little maid next to her holding an umbrella for her.
The gentle smile and warm sunshine made Mu Jingchao lose his mind. This is a good girl. A girl should at least be gentle and kind, even if she is not very good-looking. But this girl is very beautiful just looking at her profile. I believe she must be a beauty.
Mu Jingchao didn't dare to be discovered, for fear that people would think he was a hooligan.
He hid in a corner and waited until everyone left before walking to where the girl was feeding the cat.
"Meow meow!"
The kitten saw someone coming and meowed at him.
This is a stray cat. It looks average, with yellow markings and tangled hair.
Mu Jingchao gently touched the cat's head, "That's great, you met a good person!"
The best luck is meeting a kind-hearted person. Looking at the small bowl in front of me, I am afraid that I will feed it many times.
The kitten walked to Mu Jingchao's feet and rubbed his little head against him.
After teasing for a while, Mu Jingchao was about to leave when he suddenly saw an earring dropped not far away.
Mu Jingchao picked up the earrings for some unknown reason and secretly hid them in his purse.
After doing all this, his face turned red. What happened to him? He was like a gangster. It was really stupid.
When he got home, he fled back to his room and lay on the bed playing with his earrings.
The girl's face kept flashing in his mind. What should he do? He seemed to be in love.
In the next few days, Mu Jingchao would go to that alley. The girl went there every day. In order to avoid being discovered, Mu Jingchao thought of many ways.
One day, Mu Jingchao had just walked to the entrance of the alley when he heard a whimpering sound.
He was startled and immediately ran to the corner and looked out.
But he saw the little maid lying on the ground, unconscious, and two men were putting a sack on the girl's head.
The girl struggled with fear on her face, but her mouth was stuffed so she couldn't call for help.
Mu Jingchao was good at martial arts, so he quickly jumped out and said, "Who are you? Let them go!"
The two men were startled and turned around. They saw a thin young man and couldn't help laughing.
"Kid, don't meddle in other people's business, or you'll die without knowing why!"
The man took out a dagger and looked at Mu Jingchao threateningly.
Mu Jingchao couldn't possibly be afraid, he looked at the two of them fiercely, "I'll take care of this matter!"
As he said that, he rushed forward, and the man on the opposite side also rushed forward.
As soon as the two met, they knew that each other was a martial artist.
The man shouted to his companion, "Go!"
The companion did not hesitate, turned around and carried the person away.
Mu Jingchao shouted, "Stop!"
However, he slightly turned sideways towards the dagger that was stabbing at him and ran towards the man's companion.
The three of them were fighting each other, and Mu Jingchao took advantage of an opportunity to immediately protect the girl behind him, preventing the two men from getting close!
Just then, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the entrance of the alley. It was the patrolling soldiers.
Seeing the scene in front of them, they immediately rushed over. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two men quickly fled. An officer walked up to Mu Jingchao and asked, "Master Mu San, are you okay?"
This person knew Mu Jingchao. Mu Jingchao glared at him and said, "There are a lot of gangsters in Beijing recently. You should be more careful. If I hadn't happened to pass by this time, these two girls would have been in danger."
The officers and soldiers on the opposite side nodded in agreement.
Mu Jingchao took off the sack on the girl's head, but did not notice the girl's strange look.
"Are you OK!"
Mu Jingchao took the cloth out of the girl's mouth and saw that she was staring at him blankly. He thought that the girl was scared silly. "Don't worry, the bad guys have been driven away by us. You don't have to be afraid. Don't worry, I will protect you."
The girl finally turned her gaze away from him and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Third Young Master Mu."
Mu Jingchao scratched his hair and chuckled, "You're welcome."
At this time, the girl's maid also woke up, her head still hurting. Seeing the girl, she quickly ran to her and said, "What are you doing? Let my lady go."
There was a pause, and an officer stepped forward to explain to the maid.
The little maid realized that she had wronged the other party and quickly apologized, "Sir, I am so sorry. I was too worried about my young lady. I am so sorry. Which family are you from? We will come to thank you another day!"
Mu Jingchao replied, "I am the third young master of the Mu Mansion, my name is Mu Jingchao, how about I send you back!"
Mu Mansion? The maid's heart skipped a beat and she looked at her mistress behind her. What kind of strange fate was this?
The girl was none other than Miss Gao, the person Mu Jingchao was going on a blind date with. Unfortunately, they never met.
The little maid had a stiff face and didn't know what to say. After all, Mu Jingchao had just saved her young lady, but it was also true that her young lady had been refused a meeting.
Miss Gao stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Master Mu San. If you are still busy, I will ask the officers and soldiers to take me away!"
Mu Jingchao's face was full of regret, but he couldn't shamelessly blame others.
After watching Miss Gao leave, Mu Jingchao paused for a while before leaving.
When Miss Gao went back, Mu Jingchao's figure was all in her mind.
The maidservant beside him kept chattering, "Master Mu San seems to be a good guy. Why did he refuse to meet the young lady? Was it really an accident?"
The curve of Miss Gao's mouth corners dropped a little bit. Yes, the two of them were originally looking at each other, and Miss Gao thought that Mu Jingchao didn't like her, but Mu Jingchao's behavior today didn't seem to be like that, as if he didn't recognize her.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Since the two of us are not destined to be together, we can’t force it. Let’s just be strangers.
I will ask my father to send a gift over tomorrow as a thank you.
When Mu Jingchao was walking back, he was suddenly stopped.
"Old Three, what are you doing here?"
Mu Jingyi looked at his third brother walking and stopping in front of him in a distracted manner, as if he was possessed by a demon.
"Big brother? You're back? Where's the second brother?"
Mu Jingchao said happily, I haven't seen my elder and second brothers for almost a year, I miss them so much.
Mu Jingyi's face changed, "I'm at home. I have something else to do. I'll leave first. Go back quickly."
"Okay, big brother!"
Mu Jingchao didn't notice the different expression on Mu Jingyi's face. His heart was filled with joy at the thought of meeting his second brother.
Mu Jingyi rode his horse as fast as he could towards the palace. He wanted to meet the emperor and his father as soon as possible, and also ask the imperial physician to come over.
That’s right, Mu Jingyang was injured, and seriously injured. An arrow almost hit his heart. Although the arrow was pulled out, it injured his heart meridian and he has not woken up yet.
The imperial physician was prescribing medicine to keep him alive all the way, otherwise he would not have made it to the capital.
