Chapter 680: Chapter 448 Such News (Second Update)_1

Yes, he absolutely would not.

Hearing this, Mu Lin chuckled lightly.

How could her master, such a good-natured man, do such a thing? He must have been schemed against by someone; it was a pity that she had just been born at that time, otherwise she would have certainly sought revenge for him.

Observing the expression on Mu Lin’s face, the doubts in Tang Qishan’s heart deepened.

For some reason, he felt that Mu Lin appeared different today, as if she had gained something and concurrently lost something else.

From the simple smile on Mu Lin’s face, for the first time, Tang Qishan seemed to see the most genuine and pure smile on her face.

Why was she like this?

"Miss Mu." He mumbled, as if there was a question about to escape his lips, but under Mu Lin’s gaze, he didn’t know what he wanted to ask. The words seemed stuck in his throat.

Mu Lin looked at him, faintly acknowledging his words with a simple response.

Just then, Tang’s mother, Shen Wei, came out from the kitchen. Seeing Mu Lin, her face was filled with a gentle and loving smile. In her hands, she carried a tray of prepared fruit which she placed in front of Mu Lin. Sitting down next to her, it was as if she hadn’t felt the strange atmosphere between the two just moments before.

Her thoughts were probably not focused on such trivial matters.

"Linlin, come, eat some fruit." Saying so, she directly picked up a piece of watermelon with a fork and handed it to Mu Lin. Her enthusiasm was so overwhelming that Mu Lin was a little taken aback. After all, she wasn’t that acquainted with Shen Wei; this was only their second meeting.

However, to Shen Wei, it was different.

To Shen Wei, Mu Lin was not only her lifesaver but also her good friend’s future daughter-in-law. Now that she was alone in C Province, it was rare for her to visit. How could she not take good care of her? She also had to ensure Mu Lin stayed for lunch. She had to help supplement her nutrition.

Also, the last time, she had been busy talking with Muqing and hadn’t had a chance to properly thank her lifesaver. Today was a rare opportunity to do so.

Additionally, she heard that Mu Lin hadn’t taken any fees for the diagnosis and treatment; what a good child.

"Thank you." Mu Lin was unaware of Shen Wei’s thoughts; she merely thanked her before reaching out to accept the fruit. She suddenly realized that the woman sitting next to her was very similar to Gu Muqing. They were indeed friends.

Tang Qishan laughed from the sidelines, feeling a bit helpless. In this family, it seemed like he was the only one who was slightly apprehensive towards Mu Lin; it was not that he disliked her, it was just that her status was a little difficult for him to handle. At least, he could not match the enthusiasm his wife and son showed when they saw Mu Lin, especially his wife.

Even if he was overjoyed; it might have something to do with him being a man.

Tang Qishan really liked Mu Lin, there was no question about it.

As for Mu Lin, if she were her old self, she might have instinctively avoided or even repelled them, but now she was starting to get used to it; to some things in this world, getting accustomed was the best approach.

Considering Shen Wei’s enthusiasm, Mu Lin ended up eating several pieces of fruit.

Finally, after swallowing the last piece of fruit, Mu Lin put the fork back on the plate and then looked at Tang Qishan, "Uncle Tang, why do you think your elder brother would absolutely not do that thing?" She wanted to know his reasoning.

Hearing this, Tang Qishan chuckled, "Because, she was the woman he loved the most, how could he possibly hurt her child." He had once seen the anguish on his elder brother’s face when he found out she was pregnant, however, that child belonged to the woman he loved even if the child wasn’t his, he was still happy for her.

Even if he had to endure the greatest pain.

The moment she married, Tang Qichuan had already decided that in this life, he would only act as her protector; even if she saw nothing, he didn’t expect subsequent events to occur so quickly.

And that one incident completely shattered everything.

Beloved Woman!

Hearing this, a series of clichéd TV drama scenes inexplicably appeared in Mu Lin’s mind.

Could it be that her master and her mother, whom she had never met, once had such a relationship? Or perhaps her master and mother had been together in the past.

Mu Lin suddenly remembered that Mu Jue had often looked at her with deep sorrow and pain in his eyes; she didn’t understand back then, but maybe now she could give herself an answer.
