Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

”Yes, it’s true. Lu Tianxing is certainly fine.”

Looking at Mu Qingxue’s expectant eyes, Mu Qingchuan gently nodded and said, ”This time, Sima sought me out mainly because of matters related to the Yanhuang Group, which have nothing to do with Lu Tianxing. Don’t overthink it.”

”Okay.”

Mu Qingxue gently nodded and said, ”Brother, is there something you want to tell me today? Is Second Grandpa asking you to persuade me again?”

Lately, Mu Qingxue’s Second Grandpa has been having people persuade her to marry into the Tang Family peacefully and become the Young Mistress Tang, with all the persuaders inevitably being her relatives.

”Do you really think I can persuade you?” Mu Qingchuan said to Mu Qingxue with some helplessness. Upon hearing her brother’s words, Mu Qingxue did not speak, her face revealing a hint of determination. Once she decided on something, no one could change it—not even her closest relatives. She loved Lu Tianxing, devoted and unrepentant in this life, with no one able to stop her.

Seeing Mu Qingxue’s demeanor, Mu Qingchuan sighed heavily in his heart once more. His sister seemed thoroughly captivated by Lu Tianxing, to the point of being hopelessly enchanted.

”Qingxue, since you think I can’t convince you, do you expect me to waste my efforts? Rest assured, I’m not here to persuade you. I came to tell you something...”

At this point, Mu Qingchuan hesitated, unsure if he should tell Mu Qingxue the matter.

Mu Qingxue immediately noticed Mu Qingchuan’s unusual behavior and asked, ”Brother, what’s wrong? Do you have something to say to me? Just tell me! What can’t we, as siblings, share with each other?”

Upon hearing Mu Qingxue’s words, Mu Qingchuan sighed internally and said, ”Qingxue, I recently learned from Sima that Lu Tianxing knows about your arranged marriage to Tang Qingyun, and he asked Sima to pass on his message, saying he will visit the Mu Family soon.”

”Brother, what did you say?”

Listening to Mu Qingchuan, Mu Qingxue trembled slightly, her face immediately revealing anxiety and unease, and she asked urgently, ”Did Tianxing really know? Did he really say that?”

As she spoke, Mu Qingxue’s face showed no attempt to hide her worry and apprehension.

In Mu Qingxue’s heart, she hoped Lu Tianxing wouldn’t misunderstand her because of this, but she similarly didn’t want him to come to Beijing. For Lu Tianxing, Beijing was a den of dragons and tigers; stepping into it meant certain death.

Seeing Mu Qingxue’s complexion, Mu Qingchuan smiled bitterly. How could he not understand the thoughts in Mu Qingxue’s mind? But now, it wasn’t about whether Lu Tianxing would come to Beijing; it was whether the Mu Family would get involved.

With Lu Tianxing’s personality, if he appeared at the Mu Family, he would undoubtedly want to take Mu Qingxue away, but Second Grandpa wouldn’t allow Lu Tianxing to do so. After all, Second Grandpa hoped the Mu Family could ally with the Tang Family, merging like two swords to elevate the Mu Family to new heights, so how could he allow Mu Qingxue to marry an enemy of the world like Lu Tianxing, let alone be his concubine?

Mu Qingchuan took a deep breath and said softly, ”Qingxue, I have no reason to deceive you. Lu Tianxing truly said so, and he will come to Beijing soon.”

Upon hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, Mu Qingxue remained silent, lowering her head slightly. After a while, she said, ”Brother, is there a way to stop him from coming to Beijing?”

In her heart, even though Mu Qingxue eagerly hoped Lu Tianxing would appear in Beijing and take her away, she knew Tang Qingyun was in Beijing, and the Yang Family was in Beijing too. Both forces had a mortal feud with Lu Tianxing and tried every means to destroy him. If Lu Tianxing appeared in Beijing now, it would be akin to a sheep entering a tiger’s den, a straight path to death.

Upon hearing Mu Qingxue’s words, Mu Qingchuan sighed helplessly, ”Qingxue, do you think I can stop Lu Tianxing? Or can we stop him from coming to Beijing?”

As he said this, a faint smile appeared on Mu Qingchuan’s face. Just now, he hadn’t mentioned that it was actually simple to stop Lu Tianxing—Mu Qingxue just needed to call Lu Tianxing and say she was determined to marry Tang Qingyun without being coerced. Only then could Lu Tianxing be stopped from coming to Beijing.

However, Mu Qingchuan could almost imagine that Mu Qingxue would never do such a thing, and doing so would have an even more frightening consequence: Lu Tianxing might come to Beijing regardless, and at that point, only heaven knows what reckless actions he might take.

Upon hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, Mu Qingxue opened her mouth but didn’t know how to speak or advise Lu Tianxing against coming to Beijing.

”Brother.”

Mu Qingxue suddenly raised her head, looked at Mu Qingchuan, and bit her lip, saying, ”Brother, if Tianxing truly comes to Beijing, I hope you can help me—protect him well and make sure he doesn’t get hurt, okay? Brother, I’m begging you.”

Listening to Mu Qingxue’s plea, Mu Qingchuan couldn’t help but say, ”Qingxue, why do this? He already has a wife, a spouse, so why are you still hung up on him? Is Lu Tianxing the only man in the world worthy of your devotion?”

”Brother, you’re right. There are many good men in the world, many deserving of investment, but a person’s heart can only hold one person, and no one else can enter.”

Mu Qingxue looked at Mu Qingchuan, her voice gentle, yet tinged with melancholy: ”I know you mean well, but when mom was alive, she once told me: A woman either doesn’t love at all, or she loves for a lifetime—committed from the start, without regret.”

”Moreover, Tianxing’s imprint is deeply entrenched in my heart, even etched into my bones. Forgetting him is too difficult, far too difficult. Perhaps it will take a lifetime to finally forget him.”

Listening to Mu Qingxue’s words, Mu Qingchuan sighed again. His sister was good in all aspects; her stubborn nature was the only issue. Once she made a decision, even nine bulls couldn’t pull her back.

”Qingxue, why put yourself through this? Is it worth it?” Mu Qingchuan asked, opening his mouth but ending up saying such words.
