My Foolish Husband Turned Out to Have a Hidden Identity Too

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: An Old Acquaintance Returns (Part 2)

“So you’re saying, I’m making trouble out of nothing, fabricating things out of thin air?” Madam Sheng Yue sneered, “The Qin Family is insignificant. I allow you to live, and you live; I order you to die, and who can survive?”

It was just a simple sentence, yet Madam Sheng Yue exuded a domineering aura, her noble demeanor unmistakable.

Qin Luo, thinking of the terror Madam Sheng Yue had instilled, fell to the ground with a thump, “Madam, please spare our lives, we didn’t know she was your adopted daughter, please spare us.”

“Spare you? I’ve already spared you once, there’s no need to forgive you a second time,” Madam Sheng Yue coldly glanced at the Qin Family, holding Xiao Qingqing by one hand and grabbing Mu Ruyue with the other as she turned to speak, “Qingqing, Yue’er, let’s go. I will send someone to deal with the Xiao Family later.”

With just those words from Madam Sheng Yue, the Xiao Family’s doom was sealed…

Qin Feifei’s legs gave out, and she collapsed to the ground. She had hoped to return to the Qin Family and arrange for Mu Ruyue’s assassination and seize the Phoenix Tripod, but her plan was thwarted before it could even begin.

“Ah, I can’t accept this!”

However, no matter how she wailed, no one paid her any attention…

“Qingqing, you must remember, when dealing with matters, always eradicate the roots. Just now, I saw that Qin woman’s murderous intent towards your sister Yue, so when you encounter such people, strike first and never let them go. Although this Qin Feifei is a minor character and can’t stir up much trouble, it’s better to take action early to prevent future problems,” Madam Sheng Yue instructed Xiao Qingqing as they walked.

Xiao Qingqing nodded her head in partial understanding, her confused expression incredibly adorable.

Hearing Madam Sheng Yue’s words, Mu Ruyue shook her head with a smile. How many in this world truly wished her dead? Even the Mu Family would probably prefer her dead.

“Yue’er, now that you are my daughter, let’s stay at the Ziyun Inn. I still have some matters to attend to here, and it will give us mother and daughter some time to bond,” Madam Sheng Yue turned her head and gently smiled, holding Mu Ruyue’s hand.

“That sounds good,” Mu Ruyue nodded, “My master will be coming to the Alchemy Conference in a few days, so I need to stay in this area too.”

As she spoke, Mu Ruyue looked up at the blue sky, wondering what Ye Wuchen was doing now, whether he was being bullied or perhaps thinking of her as well.

That night.

The night was silent.

Mu Ruyue faintly heard a familiar voice…

“Wife, wife…”

Mu Ruyue suddenly opened her eyes, and instantly a familiar face appeared before her. The man was smiling at her with twinkling eyes, as clear and pure as ever.

“Wuchen, how are you here?”

“I missed you, wife,” Wuchen smiled warmly, his handsome face displaying a slightly devilish charm, “You must have been thinking of me too, right?”

“Wuchen, um…”

Mu Ruyue’s words were still in her throat when they were blocked by those beautifully shaped thin lips. Ye Wuchen gently licked her lips, and that delightful sensation made his smile even more attractive.

“Wife, go to sleep. I’ll always be by your side,” he said.

His words were like a spell, making Mu Ruyue’s eyelids grow heavier. She couldn’t keep them open any longer and slowly closed her eyes in the young man’s arms…

When the morning light entered the room, Mu Ruyue finally opened her eyes. She remembered everything from last night and rubbed her aching forehead, “Was that a dream?”
