Chapter 1065: Chapter 1057: A Proud Smile

“What are you standing there for? Grab her, don’t let her escape.” Mu Feng pushed the security guard beside him and shouted angrily. With Mu Feng’s ire sparked, the guards had no choice but to brace themselves and charge towards Qianxi.

A throng of security guards lunged at Qianxi, but everyone suddenly saw darkness, and in the next moment, they found themselves sitting on the ground. Meanwhile, Qianxi’s steps toward the door didn’t pause for a second, leaving them helpless but to watch the determined footsteps with no means to intervene.

Mu Feng, watching Qianxi’s silhouette leave, stomped his feet in anger at his spot. The butler beside him, worried that Mu Feng might vent his anger on him, kept his head down and stayed silent.

Glancing at Xiao Wushuang, who was unconscious and limp like a puddle of mud in the room, Mu Feng sighed heavily. He was not currently focused on Xiao Wushuang being beaten to such a state, but rather, who would treat Muyun’s illness in the future.

“Master, what should we do now?” After a while, the butler asked. In response, Mu Feng glanced at Xiao Wushuang, shook his head, and said, “Find a doctor first.” With that, he turned and left.

Hearing Mu Feng’s order, the butler hurriedly nodded, approached Xiao Wushuang, and lifted him onto the bed. Seeing Xiao Wushuang’s pitiful state, the butler couldn’t help but gasp. Wasn’t Qianxi too ruthless with her attack?

After a turbulent night, Muyun awoke the next noon, with his body aching all over. Struggling to get out of bed, Muyun dragged his weary body outside the room.

“Young master Muyun, you’re awake?” As Muyun stepped out the door, he saw Xiao Yifei, who greeted him politely. In response, Muyun quickly returned the courtesy, calling out “Mr. Xiao”. Knowing that Xiao Yifei had awakened him, Muyun’s attitude towards Xiao Yifei was much improved, even respectful.

After exchanging greetings, neither knew what to say next, making the atmosphere awkward. Just then, Old Hua approached. Seeing Muyun awake, he politely inquired, with Muyun responding in kind.

Faced with this old man, an inexplicable reverence arose in Muyun’s heart, causing him to quietly speculate as to the identity of the person before him.

“Xiao Yifei, do you think Qianxi will be discovered?” Old Hua sighed, voicing his concern. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei also frowned. If Qianxi was discovered while still at the Muyun family, what could happen?

Old Hua asking thus clearly showed his worry for Qianxi. Regardless of what Qianxi had done before, this granddaughter was still his own; saying he wasn’t worried was certainly false. Xiao Yifei gently shook his head, not knowing what would happen if Qianxi was discovered.

“Old master, don’t worry too much. Given Qianxi’s identity, I believe not many people would be able to do anything to her,” Xiao Yifei comforted Old Hua hurriedly. Hearing Xiao Yifei’s reassurance, Old Hua nodded. Indeed, with Qianxi’s identity, Mu Feng probably wouldn’t dare do much.

Thinking this way, Old Hua relaxed considerably. However, Muyun, listening to their conversation, was somewhat confused. “What do you mean? Why is Miss Qianxi at my home?” Muyun asked, voicing his confusion.

Hearing Muyun’s question, Xiao Yifei turned his gaze back to him and said with a smile, “How do you think we brought you here?”

Upon hearing this, Muyun pondered for a while, looking around the surroundings, realizing he was no longer in the original place. Only then did he recall Xiao Yifei’s words and understand.

Seeing this, Xiao Yifei recounted in detail how they brought Muyun here. After listening to Xiao Yifei’s explanation, Muyun nodded slowly, saying apologetically, “Mr. Xiao, sorry for the trouble you’ve gone through.”

Xiao Yifei waved his hand, stating that it was not Muyun’s fault but entirely Xiao Wushuang’s issue. Muyun fully agreed with that, thinking that if not for Xiao Wushuang, he wouldn’t have fainted, and Xiao Yifei wouldn’t have been wronged. Then, Xiao Yifei and the others wouldn’t have had to go to such great lengths. Thinking about Xiao Wushuang’s despicable act made Muyun’s expression sour.

Seeing Muyun’s expression, Xiao Yifei patted him on the shoulder, sighed, and said, “Alright, once your health is mostly recovered, everything will come to light.”

Hearing this, Muyun nodded heavily, clearly harboring much anger toward Xiao Wushuang.

“Mr. Xiao, about my illness?” Muyun seemed to suddenly recall something and asked. Hearing Muyun’s question, Xiao Yifei nodded thoughtfully, saying, “For your illness, I currently have no solution.”

Upon hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, Muyun felt somewhat disappointed. He didn’t expect that even Xiao Yifei, someone capable of waking him, was unable to help, he thought.

However, the next moment, Xiao Yifei revealed the reason, “I need the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle.” Xiao Yifei said, looking seriously at Muyun. Upon hearing this reason, Muyun suddenly understood. It wasn’t that Xiao Yifei was incapable of handling his illness but that there were conditions involved—a condition Muyun could satisfy.

“Are you saying that with the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, my illness can be cured?” Muyun asked excitedly. Hearing Muyun’s exclamation, Xiao Yifei nodded. At this point, Old Hua couldn’t hold back from praising Xiao Yifei.

“You see, insisting on trusting that Xiao Wushuang at first. Our Xiao Yifei is the true heir of the Xiao family, skillful in medicine with instant cures.” As he spoke, Old Hua couldn’t help but show a proud smile.

Listening to Old Hua’s praise, Xiao Yifei felt slightly embarrassed, but Muyun on the side nodded in firm agreement. Seeing Muyun nodding, Old Hua laughed heartily, while Xiao Yifei offered an awkward smile to Muyun.

Meanwhile, Xiao Wushuang lay on the bed, uncertain of life, while the City Lord Mu, accompanied by several doctors, stood by.

“How is it?” Mu Feng asked bluntly, his face cold. The person, frowning, slowly said, “Mr. Xiao now has both internal and external injuries that damage the tendons and bones. Such injuries will linger for the rest of his life.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Feng’s face darkened slightly. After a moment, with a cold expression, he asked, “Can he wake up?” In response, the doctor nodded.

“Wake him first then,” Mu Feng said helplessly, then turned and left the room. The remaining people followed Mu Feng’s orders and began treating Xiao Wushuang. Seeing Xiao Wushuang’s condition, the doctors gasped, as injuries like this were unprecedented in their careers.

Countless internal injuries marred the body, and worse yet, the facial cartilage had been so battered that it was unrecognizable. It could be said that Xiao Wushuang’s face could never return to its original state. The crowd exchanged shocked glances, unaware that all these injuries were inflicted by a single woman.

After tending to Xiao Wushuang’s injuries, the group left the room.

At this time, Muyun was discussing his illness with Xiao Yifei. When he mentioned that the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle was with Xiao Wushuang, Xiao Yifei helplessly nodded, showing that Muyun initially trusted Xiao Wushuang unconditionally.
