A Resolute Denial

"Do you really want to know why?" Mu Ling sneered as he approached Chen Qingyan slowly.
"Do you still remember the incident that happened twenty years ago when the people of the Mu family chased after us and wanted to kill us? You told me that you saved my life by risking yours. Tell me, who had actually risked her life to save mine?"
"Brother Ling, I don't get you. Did someone tell you something? You promised that you will always believe me no matter what happens. Have you forgotten your promise?" Chen Qingyan's face changed slightly. She pursed her lips together.
Mu Ling closed his eyes in agony. He had trusted Chen Qingyan so much and had taken his promise so seriously that he had hurt the lady who loved him most in his entire life.
Slowly, he opened his eyes. His eyes arced in irony.
"I met Mu Qi from the Mu family."
Shuddering, Chen Qingyan clenched her fists tightly.
"Brother Ling, you believe him?"
"Of course not! I met Hai Rong after that. He told me that he took Suyi back from the place where we were faced with danger back then. He saw Suyi lying in a pool of blood, all alone. No one was by her side. Chen Qingyan, do you know what it means? If not for Hai Rong, Suyi might have been killed by spirit beasts." Mu Ling's bloodshot eyes filled up with fury as they locked onto Chen Qingyan. He was searching for an answer from Chen Qingyan's face.
Chen Qingyan quickly regained her composure, the corner of her lips curved into a sinister smile.
"It turns out that you have never trusted me. You would rather believe in Mu Qi and Hai Rong. Hai Rong is so close to Sister Suyi. Do you think he would tell you the truth?"
Mu Ling had never thought that Chen Qingyan would still lie to him at this point in time. The grief and anger on his face grew even more obvious.
"Naturally, I will not trust Hai Rong completely. Hence, I checked with Han Feng when I got home. He told me that Suyi was there back then. As he was not capable of bringing Suyi back, he asked you to look after her. However, you had actually returned home on your own. You have even told him that Suyi was taken away by her old flame. Haha!
"Do you remember what you told me when I came to? You said that Suyi ran away when I was in danger. It was you who had protected me alone! Tell me now, why Suyi was there too. Why?"
As if engulfed in endless agony, Mu Ling shouted at the top of his lungs. It was so painful that he wanted to strangle the lady before him.
Chen Qingyan's body stiffened.
"Brother Ling, everything I did, I did for you... why don't you trust me? Do you really want me to tell you that Sister Suyi had an affair with another man? It was a month long. Do you really think that nothing happened between her and the man who took her away?"
Slap!
Mu Ling raised his hand and gave Chen Qingyan a tight slap across her face.
This time, his slap was harder than before. Chen Qingyan could only feel the pain on her cheek, she could not even feel that her heart was ripped apart.
"That's total nonsense! You must be out of your mind. Hai Rong was the one who took Suyi away. Do you know how old Hai Rong is? That's impossible. If Hai Rong were Suyi's old flame, why did Hai Rong know nothing about Suyi?" Mu Ling sneered.
Chen Qingyan had truly lost her mind just to slander Suyi and get herself out of trouble.
Suddenly, the things that Suyi had said came into Mu Ling's mind. He walked up to Chen Qingyan and grabbed her by her lapel.
"Back then, a servant had nearly killed Nan Xian. Are you the mastermind behind that?"
