Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

At this moment, neither Elder Mu nor Mu Qingchuan noticed that Mu Qingxue had quietly appeared outside the door, and had overheard their entire conversation.

After hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, Elder Mu sighed softly and said, ”I know about this matter, Qingchuan. Don’t tell Qingxue about it. Don’t let her find out, okay?”

”Yes, Grandpa, I understand.”

Mu Qingchuan said very seriously, ”Qingxue asked me about it, but I didn’t tell her. I just said Lu Tianxing is fine.”

Perhaps it was because they were talking about Mu Qingxue, that a trace of fondness appeared on Mu Qingchuan’s previously serious face.

After hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, Elder Mu nodded slightly, ”It’s good you didn’t tell her. That girl is infatuated with that boy from the Lu Family right now. If she finds out he’s injured, she definitely won’t sit still. Who knows what kind of trouble she’ll cause!”

Elder Mu’s voice was full of helplessness. Lu Tianxing was truly the most terrifying genius, advancing from the Heavenly Realm to the Middle-stage Mythical within just a few months, and possessing combat power rivaling the Late Stage of Mythical. Such a person might not be unheard of in the future, but he certainly was unprecedented in the past. If Lu Tianxing were to marry Mu Qingxue, it would definitely be a great boon for the Mu Family.

But the ideal is rich, the reality is skinny.

If Lu Tianxing wasn’t married, it would have been fine. With his status, he would be suitable to marry Mu Qingxue. But the problem is, Lu Tianxing is already married, and he has several women around him. Even if Qingxue was willing to marry him at this point, the Mu Family would not agree.

After all, the Mu Family is a prestigious family in Beijing, and Mu Qingxue is their cherished little princess. If word got out that she was competing for favor with several other women, marrying into someone else’s family as a third party, the Mu Family would lose face completely and become the laughingstock of many, unable to hold their heads high in Beijing.

Right now, Elder Mu’s heart was filled with regret. Back when Mu Qingxue entered the entertainment industry, trying to use her own capabilities to find Lu Tianxing, he should have stopped her. If he had stopped her then, perhaps none of this would have happened.

But now it was too late to say anything, as Mu Qingxue had already deeply plunged into the quagmire of love, unable to extricate herself.

Despite his heartache and regret, there was nothing Elder Mu could do to remedy the situation. He was heartbroken, but there was no way out.

Love, after all, is one of the most mysterious feelings in the world. Once you fall in, it’s difficult to step out.

And there’s no medicine for regret in this world; when you make a mistake, you must pay the price.

Outside, Mu Qingxue’s eyes suddenly turned red. Her mind was in chaos; she never expected Lu Tianxing to be injured. Although Mu Qingchuan didn’t mention how serious his injuries were, Mu Qingxue still felt as if her heart was in her throat, filled with worry.

Worried about how Lu Tianxing was doing now, was there anything wrong with him?

At this moment, Mu Qingxue’s heart was filled only with Lu Tianxing, nothing else. She was desperate to sprout wings and fly to Lu Tianxing’s side, to see how he was doing, and whether his injuries were severe or not...

Unwittingly, Mu Qingxue began to sob softly, her heart twisting with pain.

Inside the room, when Mu Qingchuan and Elder Mu heard the faint sobs, their expressions changed dramatically. Mu Qingchuan quickly stood up from the sofa, and without any hesitation, took large strides towards the outside.

When he saw Mu Qingxue standing there with tears streaming down her cheeks, his expression instantly turned grim.

”Qingxue...”

Mu Qingchuan felt his throat filled with bitterness, never expecting Mu Qingxue to be standing outside, and if he guessed correctly, she had probably overheard the conversation he just had with Elder Mu. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have ended up in this state.

At this moment, Elder Mu slowly walked out from inside, and seeing the tears on Mu Qingxue’s cheek, he sighed softly.

”Why did you lie to me? Tell me, why did you lie to me, why didn’t you tell me the truth?” Mu Qingxue shouted at Mu Qingchuan and Elder Mu.

This morning she had asked Mu Qingchuan about Lu Tianxing. Mu Qingchuan told her Lu Tianxing was fine, but now she found out that Lu Tianxing was injured. How could Mu Qingxue not be angry? If she hadn’t come here today, she would have been kept in the dark like a fool.

”Qingxue, I...”

Mu Qingchuan opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something, but didn’t know what to say.

”Tell me, why?”

Mu Qingxue, with tears streaming down, looked at Mu Qingchuan and said, ”Brother, why did you lie to me, why? Have you forgotten how you promised me before, that no matter what happens to Lu Tianxing, you would tell me? I trusted you so much, I never doubted your words, but why did you end up lying to me?”

”Is this fun for you? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment seeing me fooled by you?”

Mu Qingxue looked at Mu Qingchuan heartbrokenly.

At this moment, Mu Qingxue felt as if she had always been a clown, trusting Mu Qingchuan completely. But now, realizing that Mu Qingchuan had lied to her, she felt as if a knife had been mercilessly plunged into her heart, bleeding profusely with a pain that cut to the core. She never dreamed that her brother, who had cherished her since childhood, would one day deceive her.

”Qingxue, please don’t misunderstand. Brother didn’t intentionally lie to you. I just didn’t want you to worry. I...”

Seeing Mu Qingxue’s current state, Mu Qingchuan felt a bitter taste in his throat, and his heart throbbed with pain.

Mu Qingxue was his sister, a sister he had always cherished since childhood. It could be said that whatever Mu Qingxue wanted, Mu Qingchuan would give. Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, Mu Qingchuan would do anything to build her a ladder to pick them. Whatever Mu Qingxue asked for, he would always grant.

Even this time, despite not liking Lu Tianxing, disliking that his sister was with a playboy, when Mu Qingxue begged him, he still spared no effort to help her, even at the cost of opposing the Mu Family, just hoping Mu Qingxue could be happy.

This shows just how deep Mu Qingchuan’s indulgence for Mu Qingxue ran.

But now seeing Mu Qingxue so heartbroken, Mu Qingchuan felt as if he too shared that pain, realizing he might have truly made a mistake this time.
