Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Stumped by the Question

“Um…” The three elders looked at each other, wondering if it was really okay to be so blunt.

But in the end, they all nodded slightly.

“Then why can’t I like him first, and when he’s gone, move on to someone else?” Mu Lingyun said coolly.

Mu Lingyun’s statement left the three of them dumbfounded.

It seemed that could actually work.

But it seemed somewhat improper.

...

The old man looked at Mu Lingyun and asked seriously, “Are you sure you can move on if the Crown Prince from the Ji family is gone?”

“I’m sure!” Mu Lingyun said offhandedly.

What she was certain of was that she would definitely cure Ji Luochen, not letting him die before her.

Mu Lingyun added in her mind.

The group looked at Mu Lingyun’s lazy, nonchalant demeanor; although it felt strange, they couldn’t quite put their finger on it.

Mu Lingyun knew they were also feeling uneasy, so she smiled and said solemnly, “Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I promise you, if something happens to Ji Luochen, I definitely won’t spiral down or seek death, is that okay?”

Seeing Mu Lingyun like this, they knew she was determined to be with Ji Luochen, so they chose to trust Mu Lingyun in the end.

Thus, the old man sighed and said, “Then it’s up to you, just remember what you said!”

Mu Lingyun looked at the Rong family’s old man and suddenly felt a bit guilty.

She had lied to them.

Although she didn’t know what she would do if she couldn’t save Ji Luochen, she knew that if something truly happened to him, she definitely couldn’t move on.

Just like in her previous life, it had taken her ten years to get over it.

Mr. Rong and Mrs. Mu also compromised, “We are just afraid that if you get stuck and can’t get out, you will be the one who suffers. If you are sure you won’t reach that point, then go ahead and love him.”

Mu Lingyun smiled, “Thank you, Grandpa, thank you, Dad and Mom.”

…And, sorry.

“So can I go tie the person up now?” Rong Shicheng suddenly said.

“Tie people up? Let you tie them up? Let you tie them up! Let you tie them up! You’re still thinking about it? Can’t you think of something else?” Mrs. Mu chided rhythmically, hitting her eldest son on the head three times, “Aren’t you supposed to be at work? Don’t you still want your company?”

Rong Shicheng: …

“I don’t know who forcefully kept me here, saying they wanted to persuade their sister.”

“So did you persuade her? You just added fuel to the fire, useless!” Mrs. Mu finished speaking, then looked at Mu Lingyun, “Sweetheart, are you hungry? You just got off the plane, how about you go take a shower first, and Mom will make you something to eat, then you can eat after your shower.”

Mu Lingyun nodded, she indeed wanted to take a bath, and was indeed hungry.

“What would you like to eat?” Mrs. Mu asked.

“How about noodles?” Mu Lingyun felt that Mrs. Mu’s ability to cook delicious noodles was just too good!

“Alright, go take a bath quickly.”

After sending Mu Lingyun upstairs, Mrs. Mu prepared to make noodles.

The other four people looked eagerly at Mrs. Mu, saying, “We want to eat too.”

“Go on! Haven’t you just eaten? Those who need to work, go to work; those who need to go out on trips, go on trips; I’m not making any for you.” Mrs. Mu said, then went to the kitchen.

After taking a bath, Mu Lingyun saw the message Mrs. Mu had sent her.

Mrs. Mu: Darling daughter, the noodles are ready in the dining room. Hurry up and come down to eat, or they’ll go soggy. I’ve scheduled to have tea with your Aunt Cao, and will be late if I don’t leave now. Remember to eat quickly and then rest well.

A Cloud: Okay, coming down now.
