Chapter 406 Too Cruel to Him

banquet hall, and in the distance, a woman walked towards him.A black miniskirt paired with a pair of black boots, a black trench coat on the outside, long hair cascading over her shoulders, a cold an...Mùxīng's body still carried the scent of blood.

Extremely pale.

It was enough to make Fu Lingxiao's heart tremble, in a single day, the little girl had bled twice.

He knew what that meant.

Panic spread from his heart, he tried hard to restrain the emotion on the verge of collapse, reached out and pinched her cheek, softly said: "Baby, you must be tired, let's rest for a while."

Mu Xing didn't feel tired at all, but her little uncle just finished acupuncture and needed to rest.

She had just answered "yes" when the man suddenly scooped her up in his arms.

"Uncle, you can't make any drastic movements right now, please let me down!"

Mu Xing spoke urgently.

The man's eyelids drooped slightly, his low voice only uttering a word softly, "Good."

Is it an illusion

Uncle's mouth was clearly curving into a shallow smile, but Mu Xing inexplicably felt a tinge of melancholy.

She looked up at him, bit her lip, and said nothing more.

Fu Lingxiao held Mu Xing and effortlessly walked to the sofa by the window. He sat down, his powerful arms holding her close in his embrace. He leaned his cheek against the top of her head, hugging her tightly.

Feeling the little girl's presence, his anxious heart finally calmed down.

- At the shimmering edge of the pool, Shen Yue stood in the chilly evening wind, lowering his voice to speak into the phone with Yun Tuo: “Yun ge, have you found a way to detoxify yet”

Over the phone, Yunto sighed helplessly. "No."

He was also having a headache. Lord Fu had just called yesterday to inquire about the research progress. Upon learning that there was still no antidote, he had flown into a rage. However, this toxin was truly bizarre. Even after changing several batches of researchers, they were still helpless. He couldn't do anything about it either.

"Little Star, she might... not last much longer."

Shen Yue looked at the gradually darkening sky in the distance, his brown eyes were dim, his voice hoarse, "Yun Ge, what can I do, what should I do..."

That defiant, arrogant, and carefree young master Shen.

Once, Yun Tuo believed that there would never be anyone or anything in this world that he truly cared about. Yet, at this very moment, he appeared lost and helpless.

For him, it was actually Mu Xing, the adorable little one.

Yun Tuo suddenly realized something, and his heart skipped a beat. His tone became stern as he said, "You little rascal, don't mess around. You know how temperamental Master Fu is. Get rid of any inappropriate thoughts you have!"

Hearing the admonitions around him, Shen Yue merely chuckled softly, “Yun Ge, rest assured, I’m perfectly clear-headed. All I want is for her to be well, that’s all.”

"You know what you're doing!"

As for this matter, Yun Tuo could only offer a vague explanation.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Lue returned to the rooftop of the villa.

In the evening, he was lying on the roof, staring at the dark night sky in a daze. A small figure suddenly jumped up, "Brother Shen Lue."

Shen Lue immediately sat up, the tension on his face finally loosening. "Little Star, how did you get here"

"Here are your clothes, I've washed and dried them."

Mùxīng hugged her clothes and walked to Shěnluè's side, sitting down. Seeing that he was only wearing a thin one, she hurriedly put her jacket on him, "It's so cold outside, the wind is so strong on the roof, why don't you put on another jacket Your injury just healed, if you catch a cold, what will you do"

The little girl lightly scolded, the night wind ruffled her hair, like threads teasing people's hearts.

Shen Yue's gaze lingered on her face, and his eyes involuntarily surged with a tide of tenderness. "Before, when I trained with Boss Situ, I often soaked in icy water for twenty or thirty degrees below zero without clothes, so I was already used to it and wouldn't catch a cold that easily."

Mu Xing blinked her big eyes, "You're so amazing, Shen Lue! Tell me about your training before."

"Great!"

Shen Lue was very happy and excitedly began to speak: "During my training in Canglong, I brought along my master, Si Tu. He was infamous for being a sadist and especially loved extreme training."

For example, skydiving, he gave us all parachutes that were faulty. If we couldn't fix them before landing, we'd be dead meat...

Mu Xing crouched down on her knees, resting her chin in her hands and looking at him with rapt attention.

After Shen Yue finished recounting his time in Canglong, he suddenly realized that he had been talking for a long time. He sheepishly scratched his head and said, "Little Star, have I talked too much"

Mu Xing raised her lips into a smile, "No way, Brother Shen Lue said it was very interesting, I liked listening to it."

Those beautiful eyes, their gaze flickering as they spoke, glimmered in the dim light like a river holding stars, reflecting tiny sparks.

Shen Lue was completely flustered under her gaze, his breath and heartbeat racing out of control.

He darted his gaze away, too flustered to know what to say next.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, leaving only the ragged breaths scattered by the night wind.

After a few minutes, the little girl's voice broke the strangely silent atmosphere between them, "Brother Shen Lue."

"Huh" Shen Yue controlled himself from looking at her.

"Shen Luege, you definitely see my situation, I don't have much time left."

Shen Lue's heart understood, but hearing Mu Xing say it out loud made him feel both sad and painful. He immediately interrupted her, not wanting her to continue, "Little Star..."

But Mu Xing interrupted his words again, "Shen Luege, let me finish my sentence."

"I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want to die in front of my uncle. My uncle can't accept it, so I plan to seal his memory during the last injection. The rest is up to you."

Shen Lu's throat trembled, and he said with difficulty, "Little Star, this is too cruel to Master Fu."

"To watch me die with my own eyes, that's true cruelty."

Mu Xing smiled faintly, "Little uncle is still young. I can't use the identity of a dead person to tie up Little uncle's life."

Shen Yue only felt that every word the little girl said was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart deeply, making him suffocate in pain, "Little Star, don't give up on yourself, maybe there's still a way..."

Mu Xing shook her head. "There's no way. My five internal organs are starting to shatter. Even if my master came back, it would be beyond his power to save me. Besides, death, to me, is actually a kind of liberation. From the moment I decided to stay by my uncle's side, I never thought about living too long, so Shen Lue, you don't have to be sad for me."

Also, Uncle is too lonely. Would you please keep him company

Shen Yue's heart was filled with sadness and helplessness. He really wanted to ask Mu Xing why she said those things to him. Wasn't it cruel to him

When he looked up and met her smiling, teary red eyes, he could only feel pain in his heart, unable to utter a single word.

"Just now's conversation, is our secret, Shen Luege brother, I believe in you."

Mu Xing smiled and got up, "Well, it's getting late, I should go."

Shen Yue slowly raised his hand, reaching out to touch Mu Xing's back through the air. He continued until her figure disappeared, then his arm drooped helplessly, and he squeezed his eyes shut in pain...ere loose and messy, with a few strands of hair falling out.He reached out and gently tucked her hair behind her ear, "Misbehaving again, are you Thinking about another kiss from me"You promised me th...
