Chapter 2154: The Past Life 79
Little Nine was really rude to Mu Yi, and for the first time, he made up his mind that he would not care about her anymore.
Qingluo stood up and looked at Mu Yi coldly.
“Mu Yi, I have given her a chance, but she did not cherish it. I will let her go this time for you. However, if she messes with me again next time… Do not blame me for being merciless!”
Mu Yi quietly sighed in relief, but he still felt guilt.
‘For me…’
Princess Qingluo would not have to suffer all these if it wasn’t for him.
Princess Qingluo had sacrificed so much for him.
Qingluo calmed herself. She did not believe in the emperor’s words, but after all, the emperor was her father.
These years, the emperor’s son-in-law’s manor was not doing very well. If she insisted on going against Little Nine, she was afraid that even her father would restrain her.
Therefore, she gave Little Nine another chance. However, if Little Nine messed with her again, she would not let her go, even if her father stopped her.
Qingluo smiled coldly after hearing Mu Yi’s words.
“No matter how tolerant I am, I still can’t replace that woman in your heart, right?”
Mu Yi froze for a moment, silent.
These years, he did not forget her, and also… Little Nine, whom he had been looking for so long.
But …
The past, after all, was the past…
Mu Yi lowered his gaze and looked at Princess Qingluo.
Twenty years… Qingluo’s face was not the same as before. She had aged a lot, and even her eyes, at some point, were filled with sadness.
From the day he married her, he had to be responsible for her. Even if it was to respect each other, he had to keep her by his side.
“It won’t happen in the future.”
This was the assurance he gave Qingluo.
It was also considered… As the time for him to move on from the past.
Qingluo lowered her gaze and smiled coldly. Only this time, she did not speak more, allowing Mu Yi to come forward and pulled her into his arms…

After meeting Mu Yi, the Ninth Emperor did not have time to shop for a while longer before she ran into Sima Yan.
Sima Yan smiled awkwardly. He had been blocked from seeing Little Nine here a few days, and he finally met her.
However, looking at Little Nine’s gaze, it seemed that she already knew what was on his mind, so he could not help but felt a little embarrassed.
“Maiden Mu, long time no see.”
The Ninth Emperor frowned and looked at Sima Yan smilingly. “We haven’t seen each other for just a few days. So has it been really that long? Did you forget that you ran to my manor and disturbed my rest a few days ago?”
That made Sima Yan even more embarrassed. He cleared his throat and smiled.
“I and Dongfang Yu’s father, once… Were close friends.”
“Oh…”
The Ninth Emperor’s tone was calm. “Then, when the Dongfang family was exterminated, where were you?”
Sima Yan was stunned.
“I went to war that year…”
If he were here back then, even if he could not protect the Dongfang family, he would not have left Dongfang Yu alone.
