Heartbeat of Marriage: The Second Marriage in the Prosperous Age

Chapter 9
"Why, it's just a little blood."

The lukewarm words, with a mocking tone, made Mu Shaoling's eyes colder, but the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

"You think I'll feel guilty for talking like this?"

Mi Sixuan took a sharp breath in her chest, her eyes were no longer free and easy as before, and the corners of her mouth were also closed, struggling to stand up. Although the blood on her hair made her look a little embarrassed, she still stretched out her hands to tidy up. Look at your clothes.

The white dress was stained with blood from her hands, which was shocking.Even though Mu Shaoling had seen too much blood and life and death, looking at the woman in front of him, he still felt a little more scared in his heart.

He grabbed her wrist violently.

"Where are you going."

A bit of impatience was suppressed in the cold voice, as if irritated, Mi Sixuan violently broke away from his hand, turned around and stared at him, and spoke with all her strength.

"I can go wherever I want!"

This is not the first time he has seen her like this. Although there is a bit of surprise on her face, she is more angry. Very well, this woman has not understood her identity and situation until now.

"Where do you want to go? Huh?"

He stretched out his hand to hook her chin, she was still so beautiful, not the awl face that many women deliberately make nowadays, but it was a bit soft.

The disdainful tone made her quiet, and then she let out a breath, and her whole body was tainted with a layer of sadness.

That's right, where else can she go now, her father, brother, and son are all in his hands, so she still has no choice.

Mrs. Zhou took Mu Shaoshan away long ago, but she just sighed silently.

The air was so quiet that people were shocked. The maid holding the medicine box also stopped in her footsteps, hesitated, with embarrassment on her face.She should have left at this time, but Madam was injured and had to be bandaged.

Mu Shaoling glanced at Mi Sixuan helplessly, why did this woman insist on being so stubborn, it was obviously her fault, how could it be so difficult to admit defeat to him.

Looking at the maid not far away, he stretched out his hand to hook it, and the maid quickly lowered her head and walked over quickly with the medicine box in both hands.

"Master."

Mu Shaoling didn't answer, but took the medicine box and waved her away, focusing on bandaging Mi Sixuan's wound.

This woman is really too thin.

Mi Sixuan didn't struggle this time, she was as quiet as a doll, letting him manipulate her, she couldn't feel the occasional pain from the wound.

Sensing her change, the man's hands became more vigorous, his eyes were a little gloomy.

Mi Sixuan was smart, how could she not know what he was thinking, but her heart was in a mess, her body seemed to be drained, and she didn't have any energy to argue with him.

Finally, the bandaging was over, the corners of Mu Shaoling's mouth curved wider and wider, and the eyes he looked at her became more and more focused, but this focus was not affectionate, but sarcasm.

"Why don't you stop acting? Isn't this a good time for me to take pity on you? Or is it that you are only advancing as a retreat, and you want to make me feel more guilty?"

Listening to his words, Mi Sixuan pursed her lips tightly. Does this man have to bully her like this to be happy?
"In the end what you want?"

Mi Sixuan asked calmly, without moving her eyes, she was still staring at the floor, as if she had lost her soul.

Mu Shaoling's face darkened, he turned around and walked to the sofa, and sat down gracefully.

"What are you doing here?"

Mi Sixuan's eyes flashed slightly, and she clenched her hands tightly.This man's condescending appearance made her want to run away. She never wanted to be so embarrassed in front of him.

But thinking of Tongtong, her eyes had to soften, she was not alone now, she knew how much Mi Tongtong was afraid of this man, and she couldn't let their relationship deteriorate any longer.

"I just want to see Shanshan."

Mu Shaoling's eyes were a little more probing, and he stared at her harder, as if he wanted to see through the woman in front of him.If this was a few years ago, he would have believed it unconditionally, but now, he has to guard against this woman.

There was a sudden pain in his heart, and then his face darkened, hidden in the shadows, making it difficult for people to see his thoughts clearly.

"You don't come here again."

The cold words were like a galaxy, separating the two of them.Mi Sixuan clenched her fists and stood in the sunlight coming in from the floor-to-ceiling windows. She had no expression on her face, but her straight back clearly showed silence and sadness.

Mu Shaoshan was her good friend for many years, and she was also responsible for what happened back then. Seeing the once lively girl become like this today, how can she stay out of it and live in peace?

But what the man in front of her said was not something she could resist.

The corner of her mouth curled into a self-mockery, Mi Sixuan raised her head slowly, looked at the man on the sofa with firm eyes, and said softly, "I see."

Although it was the desired result, Mu Shaoling felt bored in his heart.I don't know if it's because of the indifferent tone of the woman in front of me, or because of her embarrassed appearance.

Aunt Zhou comforted Mu Shaoshan, walked out slowly, and stood in front of Mu Shaoling with a respectful expression.

"Master, Miss is fine."

The man's eyes were deep and gloomy, and he didn't answer, he just stood up and strode away.

Mi Sixuan still stood in the same posture, as if thinking about something, her eyes were empty.Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Mrs. Zhou retreated silently.These two people looked at the appearance of a man and a woman, and they became husband and wife, but their relationship was like an enemy.

When Mu Shaoling gained power, Mi Sixuan was already married to Xi Zixiao, so few people knew about their relationship.

The man who walked to the door felt the silence behind him, stopped abruptly, and saw the woman who was secretly lost in thought, his brows were tightly frowned, why, he was wronged by him, did he start to miss that little son of the Xi family?
"Not leaving yet?"

The woman standing with her back to the sun is like an angel lost in the world, but in the eyes of a man, this kind of loneliness is only dazzling.Back then he loved her so badly, but now, when he saw her, all he could think of was her heartlessness and indifference back then, which was the pain that almost drove him to a dead end.

Feeling his gaze, the woman straightened her back even more. After all these years, this man's voice is still so magnetic, but his words are not as gentle as before, but bitingly cold.

"Walk."

With a simple word, Mi Sixuan raised her legs and walked out. When Mu Shaoling passed by, neither of them raised or lowered their heads. They felt the warmth from each other indifferently, and passed by in a flash.

The car stopped in front of the villa, and the sun was about to set. Mu Shaoling got out of the car and slammed the door, and strode into the villa. Mi Sixuan was stunned for a while before getting out of the car quietly.The expressions on the faces of the servants around did not change at all. No matter what the master did, they had no chance to intervene, as long as they did their own things well.

Mi Tongtong sat quietly on the sofa. He didn't see his mommy yesterday, and he didn't see him again today. Could it be that that weird sorceress not only took away his daddy, but also his mommy?
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy my heart became, and the circles of my eyes turned red.The confinement wife who was arranged by Mu Shaoling to take care of him was shocked when she saw him about to cry.

Although Mu Shaoling won't give them good looks, but the rewards are very considerable, she doesn't want to lose such a job.And this kid is very well-behaved and very attractive.

"Little master, what's the matter?"

Mi Tongtong was aggrieved at first, but at this time someone cared, he turned his face away and burst into tears, crying intermittently, "I want Mommy, where did you take my Mommy?"

When Mu Shaoling came in, he heard such shouts. Although it was a bit noisy, it still softened his heart.If this child didn't belong to that woman, if it wasn't evidence of her betraying him, he would like this child very much.But all assumptions cannot change the facts.

A cold look came over, as if expressing his displeasure, Yue Yue felt this look, raised her head to look over, and instantly felt a chill down her back, this man is not easy to mess with.But Mi Tongtong seemed to be against her, usually very obedient, no matter how coaxed she was today, she didn't stop crying.

Finally, Mu Shaoling frowned, raised his legs and walked towards them.Mi Sixuan walked behind, and before entering the door, she heard the cry of a child, and immediately her eyes were filled with panic.Isn't this crying sound belonged to her son? What's wrong?
She ran in in a panic, and saw Mu Shaoling walking towards Mi Tongtong's back at a glance, and the panic in her eyes grew a little more.What this child represents to him, no one knows better than her. Two days ago, she was worried that this man would do something excessive. Could it become a reality now?

no!She must protect her son!
"Tongtong!"

A sharp voice pierced the hall, and the crying stopped abruptly. Everyone looked at the woman who had just entered the door in surprise. They didn't know why she was so emotional. The panic and trembling in her voice were so obvious, and even a little of despair.

Mi Tongtong looked at her figure, his big eyes blinked and his eyelashes were still trembling with tears, which made people feel very distressed.

"Mummy!"

Stepping forward, he happily ran towards Mi Sixuan, with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth.The woman quickly knelt down to catch the running villain, for fear of bumping him.Children are wonderful, they are so easy to satisfy, all emotions are so simple.

The face of someone who was ignored by these two people became very ugly. Others didn't understand Mi Sixuan's panic just now, but he understood very well that in this woman's heart, he would really do something to children. .

"Why, this is showing the love between mother and child? It's just that I haven't seen you for a day."
