Ling Qiuyun has received news that Lin Zai is visiting the Liu family.
He looked at Chen Fei with a heavy expression, "Lin Zai has always hated the Liu family. Why do you think she went out of her way and took the initiative to step into the Liu family's door?"
Chen Fei shook his head, how did he know such a thing?
There was contempt in Ling Qiuyun's eyes. Apart from his strong martial arts skills, this man had no other redeeming qualities.
"Lin Zai came here specifically to inquire about your situation." He said calmly.
Chen Fei's eyes widened, "Inquire about me?"
"That's right! Zheng Zhen must have told Yin Tianxing about you and Minglan, and Yin Tianxing told Lin Zai about it. Your scar is so eye-catching, and the assailant carries the Liu family token. , they will naturally suspect you immediately!"
I see!
Chen Fei suddenly realized, but hadn't Minglan repeatedly reminded Zheng Zhen to keep it secret? Why would she reveal such an important matter to Yin Tianxing?
But it's no wonder that Zheng Zhen values Yin Tianxing, and since she appears at the scene again, Yin Tianxing will definitely ask why. Even if she doesn't want to say it, under Yin Tianxing's repeated questioning, it makes sense that she finally tells it all. Can be forgiven.
Chen Fei knew that Zheng Zhen was jealous of Lin Zai, so the girl might still be able to take advantage of her, but he had no intention of telling Ling Qiuyun this idea.
He has to worry about everything he does. If he continues to tolerate it for a long time, when will he achieve his goal?
"You must be careful and don't go back to Liu's house in the near future!"
"Yeah!" Chen Fei responded casually.
He has said this countless times, and Chen Fei is too lazy to listen to it anymore.
The person he was loyal to was the Ninth Prince, not Ling Qiuyun.
Who is he? Why are you bossing yourself around?
It would be great if the Ninth Prince was here, he would definitely not be as timid as this guy.
"By the way, Chen Fei, is Liu Yao very prejudiced against Yin Tianxun?" Ling Qiuyun suddenly asked.
"Yes, Yin Tianxun and Lin Zai are very close, which makes Liu Yao very unhappy!"
Speaking of which, this was the Ninth Prince's plan. Liu Yao's actions that day caused Miss Wu Yin to be injured. In order to punish the Liu family, the Ninth Prince specifically asked himself to provoke Liu Yao and find an opportunity to arrange the assassination.
Liu Yao didn't know anything about this.
The Ninth Prince was brave and resourceful, and Chen Fei truly respected him, but the boy in front of him was a different story.
Ling Qiuyun didn't know that Chen Fei was already dissatisfied with him. His eyes were deep and an idea suddenly popped into his heart.
This Liu Yao may be able to be used.
"I'll go out first!"
He didn't want to be alone with Chen Fei, so he left immediately after saying what he wanted to say.
Chen Fei was the only one left in the room. He sat down and began to have his own plans in mind.

Ling Qiuyun frowned.
In addition to the Liu family, Lin Zai also made a special trip to visit his mother.
His mood was very complicated. Whether it was Li Ao, Lin Ran or Lin Zai, they all cared about themselves and their mother from the bottom of their hearts.
There was one thing that Ling Qiuyun didn't tell Chen Fei just now, and that was that the reason why Lin Zai went to Liu's house was partly for him and his mother.
Ling Qiuyun was greatly touched, but they had different paths and could not conspire against each other. They were destined not to be on the same road in this life.
Ling Qiuyun also placed his hope on Li Ao, but this person was too pedantic, so he turned to cooperate with Rong Guo.
They won't change, and neither will they. This is a fact that no one can change.
Li Ao, Lin Ran, Lin Zai, and Cheng Mu were all top-notch talents, but they were willing to stick to the old rules, which made Ling Qiuyun extremely disdainful.
Cheng Mu doesn't believe that he can build a paradise on earth in the Western Territory. This is his prejudice. Sooner or later, he will impress Cheng Mu and make him feel ashamed of what he has said.
He didn't do anything wrong, it was those who were at the top who were wrong.
Cheng Mu's death made Ling Qiuyun miserable, but he tried his best to suppress it. Moreover, Cheng Mu would not be the only victim. More people would lose their lives in the future. Although these people may be good people, but But he doesn't allow anyone to hinder his plan!
Everyone will die, and they may meet again in another world in the future, and then they will know that only what they do is truly beneficial to the West.
In fact, Ling Qiuyun was not as indifferent as Chen Fei thought. He was also very anxious. There was not much time left for him. He had to find a breakthrough as soon as possible and conquer the Western Region in one go.
But now that Yin Tianxing is here, if he is careless at all, the opponent may seize the opportunity to counterattack.
Ling Qiuyun's face became even more gloomy. He suddenly thought of his mother and wondered how she was doing now.
Mom is in poor health, and without him around to take care of her, she should be fine, right?
But Ling Qiuyun soon rejected this idea, because Li Ao's family would definitely help him take care of his mother.
Mom, don’t worry, your son won’t keep you waiting for too long.
Ling Qiuyun said silently in his heart.
After everything is accomplished, my mother will definitely smile with relief and satisfaction when she sees her achievements!
He really didn't want to see his mother crying in tears day and night anymore!

Xiao Muzhou came back much earlier than Jin Rong expected.
She didn't ask why, but asked softly: "Have you had dinner?"
"not yet!"
"I'll let them prepare the meal right now!"
Xiao Muzhou took her hand and said a little tiredly: "I'm not hungry yet, Jinrong, please talk to me!"
Jin Rong nodded slightly.
Seeing Mu Zhou's face full of worries, she couldn't help but start to feel worried.
Could something very bad have happened?
Jinrong suppressed his inner uneasiness and asked softly: "Would you like tea?"
"Um!"
Xiao Muzhou took the tea cup from Jin Rong. He looked at her intently and suddenly asked, "Aren't you curious about what happened?"
Jin Rong smiled slightly, "Of course I'm curious!"
"Then why don't you ask me?"
"If you want to say it, you will naturally tell me. If you don't want to say it, no matter how much I ask, it will be useless!"
For some reason, Xiao Muzhou was a little unhappy after hearing this, "Why are you always so calm, or do you mean you don't care about me at all?"
Jinrong didn't know what was going on with Mu Zhou. She stared at Mu Zhou and replied seriously: "Of course I care about you, but I know that everyone has things in their heart that they don't want to tell others. If it's just to satisfy their own curiosity, My heart forces others to uncover their scars, which makes me feel bad!"
The expression on Xiao Muzhou's face softened slightly, and he confirmed again: "Jin Rong, do you really care about me?"
"That's natural, Mu Zhou. You and I have been together for so many years. I believe you must care about me, right?" Jin Rong blinked and asked.
"That's right!"
"But I know this feeling is not as good as your friendship for the princess!"
Xiao Muzhou's shoulders trembled suddenly.
He felt even more upset, and his face became gloomy, "You mean your feelings for me are not as good as your feelings for your sweetheart?"
Jin Rong did not escape, she said calmly: "That's not what I meant, but it seems right to say so. Mu Zhou, you have family affection and friendship for me, but you just don't have love, right?"
Xiao Muzhou didn't know how to answer for a moment.
He and Jinrong cherish each other and he never wants to lose Jinrong, but he dare not admit the truest thoughts deep in his heart.
Because he was afraid of making another woman cry.
Xiao Muzhou could not forget the look of Ah Xin holding back tears.
She was always so strong and never cried easily in front of anyone. Even if it was the person she trusted the most, Ah Xin was unwilling to show any vulnerability.
Because of this, Xiao Muzhou tried his best to suppress his feelings for Jin Rong.
But sometimes, the more restrained you are, the harder it is to restrain yourself.
because,
When he was sad, Jin Rong was by his side.
When he felt lonely due to illness, Jin Rong was the one who took care of him and wanted to comfort him.
When he felt depressed and downcast, Jin Rong was the one who kept encouraging himself and giving himself strength again.
...
How could he pretend that none of this happened?
Xiao Muzhou fell into confusion. Jinrong couldn't bear to see Muzhou like this, so he advised: "Although I don't know what happened specifically, I think you should stop forcing yourself. If there are some things that you really don't want to face, then occasionally There’s nothing wrong with escaping for a while!”
escape?
He has been avoiding his feelings for Jin Rong, but is this escape really meaningful?
"Jin Rong, have you ever had a similar situation?" Xiao Muzhou said at a loss.
"Of course! Humans are not gods. Naturally, there will be all kinds of things that we can't figure out or are unwilling to face. For example, the reason why I came to Rong Kingdom is just a kind of escape?"
Xiao Muzhou's heart trembled, "But you still can't forget him in the end!"
"Yes, but the experience in Rongguo is also a precious memory for me! So I think that instead of trying to get into trouble, it is better to put aside these things that bother me for the time being. In many cases, there is really no need to force myself. There must be an answer!”
"Um!"
Everyone has their own way of solving problems, but other people's ways of solving problems may not really apply to them.
"Mu Zhou, I don't want you to put so much pressure on yourself!"
"okay, I get it!"
Jinrong has a magical power that can temporarily calm his nervous heart.
Moreover, Jin Rong takes care of his daily life. If she leaves him, Xiao Muzhou really doesn't know how to continue living.
"If that man wants to see you, will you go back to the Western Region for him?" he asked anxiously.
"meeting!"
Xiao Muzhou's face turned pale and his breathing became rapid.
"Mu Zhou, if something happens to the princess and I at the same time, your first choice must be to save the princess, right?"
Jinrong was very sure, but she didn't feel unhappy about it.
Xiao Muzhou suddenly felt powerless.
She was right. In that case, what qualifications did he have to ask Jin Rong to put himself first?
"Jinrong, can I ask you a favor?"
After talking for so long, he almost forgot the most important thing.
