Chapter 393: An Indistinct Unease
Yan Sijue gently chuckled and leaned down to kiss her, "Alright, I won’t say anything more. But you mustn’t be sad anymore."
She huffed and continued to push him away, "Let Xiao Qi come in."
He raised an eyebrow and helplessly obliged.
Soon, Xiao Qi came in, clicking her tongue in wonder, "Yan Sijue is getting better at comforting people."
At this moment, Mu Yiliang’s face was filled with anger, looking much more vibrant than the pale and haggard appearance from the previous days. Her demeanor indicated that Ye Moran’s death and the child-related matters hadn’t cast a shadow over her.
Mu Yiliang forced a smile, then seemed somewhat dazed.
"What’s wrong?" Xiao Qi sat down by the bedside, a bit worried.
Mu Yiliang slightly frowned and hesitantly asked, "In the past two days...has anything else happened?"
Xiao Qi thought for a moment, "Not that I know of? Is something off?"
"I feel... like Si Jue seems a bit off..." Mu Yiliang’s smile was slightly bitter, "I can’t pinpoint what’s wrong, but... there’s just something strange."
Xiao Qi slapped her thigh, "Don’t say that! I also feel something! That day after you fell asleep, he suddenly asked me some strange questions!"
Xiao Qi recounted the conversation with Yan Sijue to Mu Yiliang, still puzzled by its meaning, "What do you think he’s trying to do?"
Mu Yiliang remained silent for a long time, then shook her head, "This incident must have hurt him deeply, I can tell... However, he recovered so quickly, acting as if nothing happened, it makes me uneasy."
Perhaps this is the intuition between couples, she understood Yan Sijue, and the day she first woke up, his behavior indicated that his heart was not without barriers, but so quickly he seemed unaffected.
Could it be just because of a promise she made?
"Maybe he just doesn’t want you to be sad again?" Xiao Qi comforted, "Perhaps it’s only that you’re being too sensitive, and even if there’s really something off with him, there’s no doubt about his feelings for you."
Mu Yiliang hoped it was just her overthinking, but there was still a lingering unease in her heart.
"During this time, if he does anything, remember to tell me immediately." Mu Yiliang said, letting out a deep sigh.
Xiao Qi nodded, "Don’t worry, I’ll help keep an eye on him. He’s been by your side almost all the time lately, seems like he’s not doing anything else."
Xiao Qi spoke with a touch of emotion, "Mu, I can see it, this man truly loves you. Those two days you were in a coma, he hardly blinked, as if afraid you’d disappear the moment he closed his eyes."
Mu Yiliang felt a pang in her heart, recalling that scene made her heart ache.
"I always make him worry, time and again..." she smiled bitterly, "And this time, even though he was the most pained and guilt-ridden, he was afraid I’d be upset and didn’t show anything."
Xiao Qi was silent for a moment, then held her hand, "Mu, don’t think like that. Everything he does for you is willing from his heart. Fortunately, this time, it ended without danger, and the child... was bound to be lost sooner or later, Ye Moran had it coming! So, don’t blame yourself, if you truly feel sorry for him, then take care of yourself, love him well. Yan Sijue couldn’t bear to blame you."
Mu Yiliang finally showed a smile and nodded gently.
Xiao Qi saw this, sighing inwardly. She thought Mu didn’t care anymore, but she realized that, like Yan Sijue, Mu was pretending to be unaffected so as not to worry the other.
