Chapter 761: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 761: Capturing and Entering the Palace to Plead for Mercy (2)
Mo Yan didn’t know how Liu Qingqing and Tie Tou had met, but from what Tie Tou had said, the two of them had fallen in love with each other, with one saying “I won’t marry anyone but you” and the other “I won’t marry anyone but you.” Mo Yan couldn’t help but think that if she hadn’t asked Liu Qingqing for help back then, Liu Qingqing might never have left Yanyu Tower, and perhaps she would never have met Tie Tou. Without that connection, the conflict between the Wu family’s mother and son might never have happened.
No one would want a daughter-in-law from a brothel. Aunt Wu’s reluctance wasn’t necessarily because she looked down on Liu Qingqing; it was more likely her concern that Tie Tou, marrying a woman with such a tarnished background, would face constant gossip and rumors that could break them both.
Rather than letting the two of them suffer in the future, it would be better to end things now, preventing a lifetime of regret.
The snowball-like figure in Mo Yan’s consciousness, Xue Tuanzi, who hated seeing its master unhappy, quickly comforted her: “Yan Yan, they were destined to meet. Even without your help, they would have crossed paths. Don’t blame yourself.”
Mo Yan, hearing this, wasn’t quite convinced: “You’re not just saying that to make me feel better, are you?”
Xue Tuanzi, feeling untrusted by its master, became very upset and retorted, “Believe it or not!”
Mo Yan, helpless, entered her space, picking up Xue Tuanzi (confirming that it had a rear end, or not), and sincerely apologized: “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have doubted your words. Please don’t be mad at me.”
Xue Tuanzi’s adult-like voice always made Mo Yan forget that it had the temper of a child.
Xue Tuanzi, feeling satisfied with her apology, cast Mo Yan a proud glance, showing forgiveness.
Seeing Xue Tuanzi's adorable expression, Mo Yan’s fingers itched, and she finally gave in to her inner desire. Amidst Xue Tuanzi’s wary gaze, she gave it a couple of enthusiastic rubs.
Its soft, white, fluffy body, without a hint of fur, was softer than dough, and it felt heavenly under her touch!
“Ah, ah, ah—Stinky Yan Yan, stop it! Stop right now!” Xue Tuanzi shrieked in a high-pitched voice, but there was no real threat in its words.
Mo Yan indulged her hand cravings for a while longer before showing mercy and stopping, leaving Xue Tuanzi blushing from the excessive attention.
Xue Tuanzi was formed from her blood, so it should have been blood-colored. However, it claimed that its form was shaped by virtue, as white as snow, the purest color in the world. Rather than being born from her blood, it was more accurate to say that its virtue gave it a tangible form.
After the playful moment, Mo Yan hurriedly smoothed Xue Tuanzi’s fur to calm it down and distract it. “You said Tie Tou and Liu Qingqing were destined, but does that mean they are destined to be married?”
Xue Tuanzi, fully aware of its master’s thoughts, had originally not wanted to give in so easily. But after being pampered so much, it had grown attached to the attention and honestly responded, “They were destined to meet, but if you hadn’t helped the Wu family escape the Old Mo family, they wouldn’t have gotten married. How could they be destined to be husband and wife?”
Mo Yan suddenly understood, but then sighed dejectedly, “So, it’s still my fault, isn’t it?”
Xue Tuanzi rolled its eyes. “Where did you go wrong? Would you have just stood by and done nothing to help the Wu family because of this?”
Mo Yan froze, then shook her head, feeling both frustrated and enlightened. She had truly overthought it, running in circles. In the end, helping the Wu family escape the Old Mo family was the right thing to do. Whether or not Liu Qingqing had helped, the outcome would have been the same.
After a moment, she asked Xue Tuanzi again, “So, what about now? Can Tie Tou and Liu Qingqing still end up together?”
“They will!” Xue Tuanzi answered without hesitation. “If you hadn’t helped the Wu family escape the Old Mo family, Tie Tou would never have married Liu Qingqing. He would have become disheartened, left home, worked for a courier company, been attacked by bandits, lost his legs, and died poor and lonely. Liu Qingqing would have had a tragic end, dying of depression. All in all, by helping, you saved two lives. Now, do you still feel guilty?”
