Time Travel and Love

Chapter 541 Returning home

"Promise, promise, you're hurting me! Let me go first! Um..." Chu Qingmeng patted his hand to make him loosen his strength.

When Mo Liujin heard that she agreed to him, he let go of her hand, but it was only to turn her over and hold her in his arms again, and then kiss her directly.

Unlike his usual kisses, he seemed eager and fearful. Chu Qingmeng sensed something was wrong, her sixth sense growing stronger. She bit him, and only then was she able to break free and breathe.

Mo Liujin picked her up and sat her on the couch, gently stroking her back, "Qingmeng...my mother..."

Chu Qingmeng raised his head and looked at him with some confusion, "Do you want Quan Si to go and take a look at her?"

Mo Liujin shook his head, looking at Chu Qingmeng with guilt, "She... threatened to kill me and force me to marry Song Wanwan... I... I wanted to agree verbally and send her to Lao Liu, but my mother insisted that my aunt send her to the mansion to settle down... I... I'm sorry..."

Chu Qingmeng was stunned. Mo Liujin couldn't have another heir, and Concubine Liu was forcing a concubine in. What other purpose did this serve besides disgusting her? It was obvious that if she had a hard time, she wouldn't have an easy time either.

But marriage is like a spring. Sometimes if you take a step back, you have to take the second and third steps back.

Her mind was in a mess, and she only heard her own voice, which was surprisingly calm. "What would you do if Aunt Liu threatened to kill you and make you sleep with her?"

"No, no, Qingmeng, believe me!" Chu Qingmeng's calmness made Mo Liujin extremely flustered. He hugged her tightly in his arms and frantically explained and promised, "No matter how much my mother forces me in the future, I will never touch her again. At worst, I will threaten her with my own life. Believe me! Qingmeng, Qingmeng..."

"Again?" A woman's intuition and sixth sense can always accurately capture the loopholes in a man's words.

Mo Liujin's body stiffened, he lowered his eyes and didn't dare to explain, he just held her tightly.

He acquiesced.

Chu Qingmeng felt the blood run cold. He weakly raised his hands to cup Mo Liujin's face, trying to find a hint of a joke on his face.

But her face only showed guilt, remorse, and uneasiness, but not what she wanted.

Mo Liujin didn't dare to look her in the eye. He had no recollection of what happened last night. The woman slept with him all night wearing only a bellyband and underwear, and the bloodstains on the bed proved what he had done last night.

"It's so cold..." Chu Qingmeng suddenly put down the hands that were holding his face and hugged his arms tightly.

Mo Liujin was shocked to realize that the pair of small hands that had been holding his face had lost all warmth and were frighteningly cold. He quickly grabbed her hands and wrapped them in his own to warm them, but his hands were also cold.

He hurriedly unbuttoned his clothes and wrapped her whole body against his chest, anxiously explaining everything that happened last night, "Qingmeng, now that she's in the mansion, you can torture her as you please, even kill her. You can beat me, scold me, or even kill me, but please don't leave me, I beg you..."

Chu Qingmeng was completely at a loss, with only one thought in his mind: "I'm so cold, why am I so cold..."

She stayed in Mo Liujin's arms for a whole hour to keep warm, but she didn't feel a trace of warmth.

Quan Si came and could feel the coolness of Chu Qingmeng's arm through the handkerchief. For a long time, his brows were locked together.

"Are you okay?" Chu Qingmeng trembled as he retracted his hand and placed it on Mo Liujin's chest for warmth. "Really, it's so cold..."

Quan Si didn't say anything, picked up the medicine box and walked out silently.

Shuang Cheng and his companions had been standing outside the door and heard everything that happened in the room.

"What's wrong?" Feiying grabbed Quan Si, feeling anxious. His master was a man of great temper, willing to die in glory rather than live in disgrace. What had happened?!

Quan Si sighed, said nothing, pulled Feiying's hand away and walked out.

Jiu Ye's health has never been good. If he takes good care of himself and relies on elixirs to prolong his life, he can only live for two years. Now the symptoms of heartbreak are obvious, and his pulse is chaotic and disordered. Even with elixirs to prolong his life, he won't last much longer.

It seems that it was he who caused Aunt Liu to die a little later.

Chu Qingmeng didn't know how long she stayed in his arms. She only heard herself say, "Let's go back to the mansion. Go pick her up and settle her down."

Seeing that she didn't cry or make a fuss, Mo Liujin felt very sad. He wrapped her up tightly, held her in his arms, and returned home.

Leng Feng sent someone to pick up Song Wanwan, but he didn't expect that she had already gone to the General's Mansion with Liu Die. It turned out that the two of them saw that Mo Liujin had no intention of picking them up, and were afraid that he would really deny it, so they rushed to the General's Mansion.

When Mo Liujin returned, Uncle Fu was just about to send someone out. In the carriage, Chu Qingmeng insisted on walking on her own, not wanting him to hold her.

He and Chunhe could only help her get out of the carriage. Song Wanwan and the other two were very smart. They deliberately made a lot of noise and announced it loudly, thinking that only by going through the clear road could they avoid dying quietly in the backyard.

Chu Qingmeng held onto the hot water bottle, and put back on the silver mink coat she'd worn during the coldest times. But she still couldn't stop shivering. Passing by the mansion's gate, she pushed Mo Liujin's hand away, not even sparing him a glance, and walked straight in.

Mo Liujin's hand froze in mid-air. She was still there, but her heart no longer wanted him.
