Chapter 540 The Root Lies Within You
Xin’s gaze immediately became sharp!
Her smile carried a knowing ridicule, "You have to admit what I said, don’t you?"
"His mentality indeed has problems, but not in the way you think." Mu Yiliang glanced at her, "I love him, so I’ll find a way to help him. If leaving him could solve the problem, I wouldn’t mind trying. But if I do that now, it would only further agitate him!"
Xin let out a cold laugh, "But the root cause lies with you!"
Mu Yiliang, hearing her tone, couldn’t hold back her anger, "Can you stop acting like you’re playing God? Do you know why my grandfather lived to be eighty? Because he never meddled in other people’s business!"
These past days, worrying about Yan Sijue’s condition, she was already under a lot of pressure. If Xin kept up with her sarcastic remarks, she’d definitely hit her! Anyway, she had Yan Sijue to back her up; she didn’t believe she couldn’t handle her!
Xin smirked sarcastically but finally stopped talking.
Mu Yiliang let out an annoyed grunt. At first, this woman seemed aloof but at least wasn’t offensive, now she’s showing her true colors and is downright asking for a beating!
Not far away, Lan Yueru flashed a smile at Yan Sijue for the first time. The mother and son sat facing each other; Lan Yueru smiled gently as she poured him water and offered him snacks, exuding warmth and kindness.
Yan Sijue looked somewhat surprised, but there was a gleam of excitement in his eyes.
Xin suddenly smiled, "After all, Aunt Lan is his mother. Blood ties are the strongest bond. Yan Sijue can do without others, but he can never do without his mother."
Mu Yiliang nodded perfunctorily, "Yeah, yeah."
This woman was probably going to make another snide remark and Mu Yiliang really couldn’t be bothered with her!
"You keep saying if you leave him, he’ll collapse, but he’s not as fragile as you think." Xin’s haunting voice echoed, "You’re not even willing to try, isn’t it because you feel guilty?"
Ah, this is so annoying!
Mu Yiliang promptly turned around and left!
Seeing her attitude, a hint of anger flashed in Xin’s eyes! She pressed her lips tightly together, not knowing what she was thinking, then suddenly smirked.
Mu Yiliang hid in the reception room.
Fortunately, from here, she could also see the back of Yan Sijue.
You’re not even willing to try, isn’t it because you feel guilty?
Suddenly, Xin’s words echoed in her mind, immediately causing her irritation! Why did she keep such ridiculous words in her mind! Forget them, forget them!
How ridiculous! Why should she feel guilty? The man’s self-torture and misery were because he felt he had hurt her. He loves her so much; if she leaves, how painful would it be for him, does she need to doubt that?
Because he felt he had hurt her...
Because he hurt her...
At that moment, Mu Yiliang suddenly realized the crux of the problem!
So, all his issues and troubles were born out of fear! On one hand, he punishes himself out of guilt, on the other, he deeply fears he’d repeat the same mistakes!
That’s why he refused to touch her, why during the worst times, he wouldn’t even leave the house because he was afraid of implicating her!
Because Qiao Yebai had implicated her back then, and under the man’s suggestive demand, Qiao Yebai had to sever ties with her.
Because Xiao Qi and Jason might involve her, Yan Sijue warned them, forcing them to make choices that aligned with his demands!
Now the person who hurt her has become him...
