Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Time to Awaken

So, that’s why she stood up for Song Muyu, because they’re friends, because Song Muyu had once been good to her, right?

Looking at Qiao Rui, Pei Liyan nodded. "Your principles aren’t wrong."

"So, do you still think I was wrong at the Pei Family now?" she laughed and retorted.

Pei Liyan nodded. "To be honest, if you hadn’t done that, you wouldn’t have caught my attention."

Qiao Rui was speechless, looked at him, and said, "As expected, people just love to bring trouble on themselves!"

Slap!

She got a slap on the bottom.

"Ah, don’t hit me, I was wrong." Qiao Rui immediately pleaded for mercy.

Pei Liyan wasn’t really angry, it was just that her words left him helplessly speechless.

This girl always managed to rile him up.

Pei Liyan lowered his head and kissed her once, then asked, "I’ll send someone to escort you back with He Zheng and He Lan, how about that?"

Qiao Rui thought about it and didn’t refuse.

"Alright, with He Lan accompanying me along the way, it shouldn’t be too boring."

"Leave now?"

"This afternoon," Qiao Rui said. "I want to sleep first and then leave."

"Okay." He nodded. "Go to sleep, I’ll head out."

"You’re going out?" she asked, noticing his eyes were bloodshot. "Aren’t you resting?"

"No time to rest." Pei Liyan said in a deep voice, "You go sleep."

"Okay."

Once Pei Liyan left, Qiao Rui went to catch up on sleep.

Pei Liyan arranged to meet with Song Xun.

When they met, Song Xun’s disheveled appearance made Pei Liyan slightly startled. "Song bro, hang in there."

Song Xun smiled bitterly and said, "It’s okay, I won’t stay down."

Pei Liyan nodded. "Do you have a plan?"

"I do." Song Xun nodded, meeting Pei Liyan’s eyes, and said softly, "But I don’t want to use it."

Pei Liyan looked at him knowingly, understanding his meaning. "You mean to let things unfold on their own first?"

Song Xun nodded. "The Song Family should go through this hardship."

Pei Liyan pondered for a moment, then said, "I also advise Song bro not to act rashly."

Song Xun was taken aback and looked at him, "Have you discovered something?"

Pei Liyan smiled without saying a word.

Song Xun was shocked. "You really found something?"

Pei Liyan nodded. "I don’t have concrete evidence yet, but let’s say it involves your sister?"

Song Xun was stunned, "Muyu is planning against the Song Family?"

"No!" Pei Liyan shook his head. "She’s not aware of it."

Song Xun suddenly realized. "That friend of hers, Ruirui?"

Pei Liyan nodded.

Song Xun felt a slight unease, looking at Pei Liyan. "Why go to such lengths for Muyu, what’s Miss Rui’s background?"

Pei Liyan smiled without answering.

"Pei bro, you should know her, right?" Song Xun slightly frowned, looking at Pei Liyan. "Don’t you know her background either?"

Pei Liyan shook his head. "Truly don’t know her origin, but she’s not ordinary. Additionally, I think she’s just trying to help Miss Song vent, after all, Miss Song went through severe physical trauma."

Mentioning this, Song Xun’s eyes darkened. "Everything’s my fault."

"Song bro, don’t blame yourself too much," Pei Liyan advised. "The outcomes of choices are always two-fold."

Song Xun smiled bitterly. "Does Muyu know?"

"By now, she probably knows," Pei Liyan said.

Song Xun leaned back, his gaze distant, looking afar, "In that case, if she didn’t act, I would."

Pei Liyan knew this was Song Xun’s plan.

His wings hadn’t fully matured, he wasn’t capable of controlling the Song Family, and naturally couldn’t oppose his parents.

If not marrying into the Shen Family, the one affected would be Song Muyu.

Song Xun compromised to protect Song Muyu, but in Song Muyu’s unknowing eyes, it might have been misunderstood.

Song Xun did not explain, deepening the misunderstanding.

Now, seeing Song Muyu’s miscarriage, she must have already resolved to sever ties with Song Xun.

"In that case, I should thank Miss Rui." Song Xun said again. "Pei bro, can you get in touch with her?"

Pei Liyan shook his head. "Don’t disturb her, she knows her limits."

Song Xun’s eyes flickered, "Have you talked to her, Pei bro?"

"I’ll tell you later."

Song Xun was taken aback, meeting Pei Liyan’s profound gaze, he nodded. "I won’t move the Song Family for now, Pei bro, you should return to Qingcheng."

Initially Pei Liyan was worried, but seeing that he had a strategy, he felt more at ease.

"Then I’ll head back tomorrow."

"Okay."

In the RV back to Qingcheng.

Song Muyu lay pale-faced in the backseat, Qi Yun driving, accompanied by Jiang Jinfeng.

Shortly after getting on the highway, Song Muyu received a call from Mrs. Song.

"You’re discharged?"

"Yes," Song Muyu said calmly. "Mom, do you have something to say?"

"You think I have nothing to say?" Mrs. Song said coldly. "With the Song Family like this, how can I stay calm?"

Song Muyu remained silent.

"Where are you?" Mrs. Song questioned. "Come home and recuperate after being discharged, heal your body before making plans."

"I’ll take care of my health," Song Muyu, having previously understood Mrs. Song’s intention to arrange a marriage for her, had now likely guessed Mrs. Song’s meaning. She’s not someone who gives up on her ideas easily.

She decided on something, she’d never give up until she achieved it.

It seemed the words Pei Liyan said to her at the hospital were in vain.

"I’m asking you where you are!" Mrs. Song repeated. "Come back to recover immediately."

"No need, Mom. I’ll handle it myself. I’m not going home!" Song Muyu’s voice was very calm.

Previously, with expectations, she still held hope, thinking of it as a warm place.

As long as there was a shred of warmth, she wouldn’t give up.

Now, that warmth was gone.

She had also given up, no longer clinging to the extravagant hope of seeking warmth.

"You’re not listening to me anymore?" Mrs. Song said coldly. "Muyu, are you trying to take advantage of our misfortune?"

"Mom, please don’t incite me." Song Muyu said very calmly, "I am very clear about your intentions, wanting me to go back for a marriage alliance."

Jiang Jinfeng and Qi Yun were both stunned, seeing Song Muyu, pale-faced, answering the call, their dislike for Mrs. Song sharply rising, feeling even more sympathy for Song Muyu.

"Since you know, you should understand, the Song Family needs you now."

"Mom, in this state of mine, I’m not as valuable as you think to contribute to a marriage alliance for the Song Family, and once the other party knows my frail condition, they might retaliate against the Song Family in a fit of anger, and the Song Family would be in an even worse situation."

"So you’re saying you disagree?"

"Yes." Song Muyu said directly, "I don’t agree to the marriage alliance, please give up this idea!"

"Aren’t you afraid the Shen Family will find out about your little secret?"

"Mom, Shen Shuyi already knows, you don’t have to threaten me," Song Muyu said. "Ever since I miscarried, my heart has already died. I don’t want to bring up past events again, you’re my mom, always will be, but if you want to control my life, I’m sorry, I can’t do that."

"What did you say? Shuyi knows?" Mrs. Song was stunned, no wonder the house was smashed like that.

So that’s why.

Mrs. Song gritted her teeth. "Song Muyu, I really regret it, why did I adopt you?"

The pain clutched at Song Muyu’s heart, almost making it hard to breathe, but she still managed a laugh, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "So, Mom, don’t be angry because of me, it’s not worth it."

"Hmph, are you really determined not to care about us anymore?"

"Mom, as long as Muyu has a meal to eat, you won’t go without. As for the rest, I’m sorry." Song Muyu finished speaking and hung up.
