Chapter 60


    Yun Muqing sneezed; the bone-chilling coldness made her shiver all over, and she nearly passed


    out several times. But when she thought of why she was here, of poor Chu Feng about to suffer


    revenge at the hands of that maniacal psycho Li Ziyang, a chill ran down her spine and her pretty


    eyes filled with determination once again.


    “Yun Muqing, how could you back down at a moment like this? Chu Feng has helped you so many


    times, so how can you watch him be tortured by that psycho Li Ziyang as revenge? That


    responsibility is yours to bear and yours alone. Even if you can’t cancel the engagement, you must


    beg Grandpa to tell Li Ziyang that Chu Feng must not be involved. Hold on! Just a little bit longer


    and you’ll be able to meet Grandpa! I’m sure of it!” Yun Muqing told herself, remembering the day


    she was banished from this house five years ago and how simr it was to her current situation.


    It had also been raining heavily that day, and the cold was no less harsh. That day, she’d just given


    birth to Duo Duo and knelt outside the Yun manor in absolute grief, begging them to let her feed her


    daughter some milk, to let her innocent daughter live. The heavy rain that day blurred her vision, but


    she could see the true colors of those people perfectly and to this day, she kept that sight within her


    heart.


    “Heh, this is no big deal. If pushes to shove, I’ll just kneel one more time.” Yun Muqing lifted


    her pretty face and fixed her gaze upon the imposing manor, allowing the rain to sting her face as it


    pleased. After all, motherhood toughens even the gentlestdies.


    Amidst the storm battering the Yun Peak Vi, a woman dressed as a servant ran out into the rain


    toward her. “Miss, why are you still standing here? You’re going to catch a cold in this heavy rain.


    Please put on some clothes,” the woman said emphatically, then hastily draped a jacket over Yun


    Muqing’s shoulders.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    She was Yun Muqing’s former nanny, Mrs. Zhao, and she was one of the few people who cared


    about Yun Muqing and Duo Duo in the entire vi. Yun Muqing instinctively held onto the jacket,


    shivering as her ice-cold fingers warmed up. “Thank you, Mrs. Zhao. Has Grandpa agreed to see


    me?” Yun Muqing asked through chattering teeth, her petite face expressed no intention of leaving.


    Mrs. Zhao’s heart hurt for Yun Muqing, and she sighed hesitantly. “Miss, why torture yourself like


    this? You know that once the Master makes up his mind, not even an eight-horse-carriage can take


    it back. You’ll never be able to call off your engagement with the Li family. Please go home, Miss.


    The Master will never see you, and what if something happens to you with this rain? What will Duo


    Duo do? Can you bear to see her lose her mother, after growing up without a father?”


    Mrs. Zhao’s words sent a pang through Yun Muqing’s heart. But then Chu Feng’s determined face


    appeared in her mind, and she doubled down with gritted teeth as she said, “I’d never forgive myself


    if I leave just like this. If Grandpa won’t see me, then I’ll stand here until he does.” Her personal


    grudges should never have been the responsibility of an innocent man like Chu Feng, especially


    when it came to their revenge on her.


    “But...” Mrs. Zhao found herself speechless. She knew what her young mistress was like, how her


    gentle appearance concealed an impossibly big and determined heart. If she didn’t get what she


    wanted, then she’d never give up this easily.


    Mrs. Zhao seemed to hesitate, then she made up her mind and said, “Fine, then I’ll leverage


    whatever dignity I have left and ask the Master if he can see you. After all, I’ve served him for over


    twenty years, and he’s always taken good care of us old servants.”


    Yun Muqing gripped Mrs. Zhao’s hand and thanked her profusely, “Thank you so much, Mrs. Zhao


    —”


    “Don’t mention it, Miss. Back when my useless boy stole the Yun family’s money for gambling, we’d


    have been beaten to death if it weren’t for your kindness and your repayment of our debts.” Mrs.


    Zhao got so touched, she choked up even while she wiped her tears and dashed toward the Yun


    manor.


    It was then, a loud creak was heard...
