The head of the Mu family

Chapter 191 Awakening

"Young Master Cui, you didn't see wrong, Huai Sheng really moved!"

General Yan! I didn't see wrong!

I didn't read that wrong!

It really was Huaisheng who moved his hand~

Yes, you read that right.

Young Master Cui, can you trust me?

If you trust me, please bring Huaisheng into the room so I can speak with him for a few minutes, okay?

"Of course!"

Qianyan carried the person inside and placed them on the bed, then told everyone to leave.

General Yan sat on the edge of the bed, holding Huai Sheng's hand, while Qian Yan stood to the side.

“Huaisheng, I know you don’t want to wake up. Although I don’t know what you’ve been through, I believe that someone as strong as you would have thought of dying.”

I... I can't even imagine what you've been through.

Since I met you, you have been healing the sick and saving lives, doing your best to help those humble people who have nowhere else to go.

But God is blind and has subjected you to inhuman treatment.

Since you've tried every means to escape, you probably don't want to die in that filthy place.

Do you think that death is liberation?

"Huaizhi and Huailian are still so young, are you really planning to give up on them?"

Huai Sheng's hand twitched again. Yan Ran suppressed her excitement and continued:

"A woman's chastity is never hidden beneath her skirt."

When you seek medical treatment, you never differentiate between courtesans and wealthy women.

It's that evil beast who deserves to die, not us innocent women!

You must wake up, live well, and set an example for Huaizhi!

It's already hard enough for us women to live, but when we encounter injustice, it's the innocent who have to die.

Even if I, Yan Ran, smash the heavens, I will still ask God:

Where is the Way of Heaven?

If this is the way of Heaven, then let us begin by rebelling against this world that defies the will of Heaven!

Two lines of clear tears streamed down Huai Sheng's face as he slowly opened his eyes.

Upon seeing this, Qianyan rushed over, and Yanran placed Huaisheng's hand in his.

Huai Sheng opened his eyes and wept. Qian Yan gently hugged Huai Sheng in her arms and cried tears of joy.

The more she cried, the more uncontrollable it became; all the emotions she had suppressed for so many days suddenly burst forth.

Unable to stop, he kissed Huai Sheng's forehead while calling out:

"Huai Sheng! Huai Sheng!"

...

Unable to speak, Huai Sheng laboriously raised his other hand and wiped away his tears.

Qianyan quickly took Huaisheng's hand in her hands and kissed it repeatedly.

Yan Ran poured a glass of water, and Qian Yan quickly took it, drank it subconsciously, and then fed it to Huai Sheng with her mouth.

Huai Sheng was shocked when he was given a little water, and immediately stopped crying.

She reached out and took Qianyan's hand holding the cup, and slowly drank the water from his hand.

Feeling that she could finally speak, she said in a weak voice:

"Qianyan~ Don't cry~"

General Yan, thank you~

"It's good that you're awake. There's no need for us to thank each other."

If we're really going to be polite, then once you're fully recovered, we'll have to start by going back to what happened over a decade ago and slowly sort it out.

Hearing Yan Ran's cheerful joke, Huai Sheng tugged at the corner of his lips, and Qian Yan gradually stopped crying.

"Qianyan~ It hurts so much, my foot hurts so much~"

"Good locust tree~ I know~ I know~"

It will be fine in a few days.

"Why don't you pinch me, and I'll feel the pain with you~"

"Fool..."

"Master!..."

A group of people rushed in, all of them crying and laughing.

Huai Sheng looked at them and smiled helplessly.

"Why does everyone miss me so much after just a few days?"

"Master! You're joking!"

If you don't wake up, we're all prepared to risk our lives to avenge you.

We are all prepared to go with you.

Uncle Mo, who was quite old, said through tears.

"Don't do anything foolish! Your lives are mine, and no one is allowed to do anything foolish!"

"Master! It's all my fault!

It's all my fault!

It's all my fault for not protecting you properly...

Yuan Su stepped forward, knelt by the bed, and began to cry.

"No, it's all my fault. I am also a son of the Mu family."

Although I didn't win the imperial examination as well as you, the head of the family treats us all the same.

I feel even more sorry for the head of the family...

Rong An also knelt by the bed and cried, and Mu Xi and Mu Xu also wanted to go forward.

Huaisheng quickly stopped them.

"Don't cry, get up..."

When you all cry, I'm in a difficult position.

"They're crying like this, am I supposed to die?"

Huai Sheng took a breath and continued weakly:

"How is this our fault?"

General Yan is right; the one who is wrong is the wicked man, we are all innocent.

The crowd gradually stopped crying.

"Is the head of the family hungry? Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

There are glutinous rice balls for the Lantern Festival, and bird's nest soup has already been prepared.

"Look, Qingxue is so thoughtful."

Speaking of which, Qingxue seems even more beautiful than I've seen her for the past few days!

"Hey~ Master!"

I'll go see what else is good to eat.

With tears still clinging to her cheeks, Qingxue gave a coquettish remark, then turned and left.

"Hey! The head of the family can't eat yet!"

Never mind, I'll go with you then.

Qingchen followed behind and went to the kitchen with Qingxue.

"Sister, my husband just went to work yesterday; he's been on duty every day."

My husband was worried and asked me to stay here and watch over my sister.

"Good girl~"

"You married into our family and came to this remote place; you've suffered so much~"

"Sister~ My husband treats me very well, you're the one who's suffered..."

It's time to say that the perfect person will start to shed tears again.

Seeing this, Yan Ran quickly said:

"Huaisheng just woke up, let her rest quietly, everyone please go out first!"

"Everyone go about your own business. If it's just the two of you serving your master, that's enough."

Everyone knew that General Yan was right, and they left one after another while wiping away their tears.

Qingchen and Qingxue brought in some fish porridge.

"Qianyan, look how thin you've become."

Go and rest for a while, Qingchen and Qingxue are here~

No! No! No!

You're awake. I'll never leave your side again.

"Then sit on the bed and lean against the pillows, and I'll eat while leaning against you."

"Um..."

Qianyan quickly took off her outer garment and carefully sat down in the quilt.

She took two pillows to lean against and gently embraced Huaisheng in her arms.

Huai Sheng leaned against him, feeling limp and powerless.

Qingxue sat on the edge of the bed and slowly fed Huaisheng fish porridge with a spoon.

Huai Sheng drank half a bowl and pushed the bowl to Qian Yan.

"I can't eat anymore, I want to eat later."

Qianyan took the bowl and ate it in a few bites.

"Would you like to eat some more?"

Then come and sleep with me for a while.

"No need to eat, I'll sleep with you for a while~"

Huai Sheng nestled in Qian Yan's arms, found a familiar and comfortable sleeping position, and fell asleep from exhaustion.

Qianyan looked at Huaisheng, whose breathing was shallow, and finally closed her eyes in peace.

When he woke up, the sun was almost setting. As soon as Huai Sheng woke up, he moved slightly, and Qian Yan immediately opened her eyes.

"Huai Sheng!"

"Um..."

Qianyan breathed a sigh of relief. Qingxue heard the noise and brought in the water for washing up.

He said cheerfully:

"Master, please get up!"

Today is the Lantern Festival, it's lively tonight!

Today, we are joined by myself, General Yan, Mu Yuansu, and the head of the family.

"Let's go to town to solve lantern riddles, and I'll win you the biggest lantern to play with."

"Okay~ Hiss~"

Where did we run into?

"Master, be careful, it's all my fault!"

Don't make a fuss~

"Quick, bring me some water. I need to wash up first."

Qianyan quickly put on her outer robe and then carefully dressed Huaisheng.
