But he noticed that Yan Qianyi’s expression was sowhat downcast.
Yan Qianyi said, "Chu Hua, ask her if she has contacted Xu Zhiqiang."
Yan Chuhua nodded and looked at Mu Huaner to ask the question.
Mu Huaner shook her head and said she hadn’t.
Yan Qianyi then told Yan Chuhua, "Ask her if she knows where Xu Zhiqiang is, and why he left the Mu Family in the first place."
After Yan Chuhua asked, Mu Huaner still shook her head, "I don’t know, he confessed his feelings to years ago, and after I rejected him, he disappeared. I’ve tried to contact him these past few years, but I haven’t been able to reach him."
Yan Chuhua looked at Yan Qianyi, "Qianyi, is there anything else you want to ask?"
"There’s nothing more, let’s leave it at that," Yan Qianyi said somberly.
Mu Huaner, too, knew nothing about Xu Zhiqiang.
Now there were no leads left...
Yan Chuhua ended the hypnosis.
Mu Huaner ca to, and although she didn’t know what she had answered while being hypnotized, she was aware of her own actions.
She looked at Yan Qianyi, "Do you finally believe it wasn’t now?"
"Sorry, I misunderstood you earlier," Yan Qianyi said.
"The one who should be sorry is , I misunderstood Doctor Shu ng before, and that’s why I kept opposing you and Ah Lie being together, even going so far as to try to match him with Ning Nuan. Now I know Ah Lie truly loves you, I won’t do that anymore, and I hope you won’t hold the past against ."
Yan Qianyi nodded slightly, her eyes downcast, without a word.
Now all she could think about was, if not Mu Huaner, then who could it be?
Who could it possibly be!?
Mu Huaner added, "Whether you believe it or not, I sincerely hope things work out well for you and Ah Lie, and that the baby is born safely. You take care, I should be going now."
Yan Qianyi remained silent.
Mu Yunlie stood up to accompany Mu Huaner downstairs.
Yan Chuhua sat down beside Yan Qianyi, "Qianyi, why do you seem unhappy? Teacher Mu’s little aunt isn’t the killer of your mother, shouldn’t you be happy?"
"It is indeed sothing to be happy about, I’m just wondering who else it could be."
Although she had always thought it was Mu Huaner, she also hoped it wasn’t.
After all, Mu Huaner was very important to Ah Lie.
Now, while her heart felt so relief, she also felt incredibly lost.
"Chu Hua," Yan Qianyi whispered, "I know that people with strong willpower, even when under hypnosis, will have a self-protective consciousness and won’t reveal their secrets. Do you think Mu Huaner is that kind of person?"
Yan Chuhua pondered with a frown, "Do you still suspect her?"
"It’s not that, I just want to be sure again."
"When I hypnotized her just now, she didn’t seem like a person with strong willpower. Her answers were probably all true."
Mu Yunlie ca back upstairs and happened to hear Yan Chuhua say this.
Yan Chuhua hurriedly said, "Qianyi, you should rest well, I’ll be leaving now."
Mu Yunlie said, "Deputy Officer Pei is waiting downstairs, he will escort you back to the Royal Palace."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Mu. You guys talk, I’ll co visit Qianyi another day."
After Yan Chuhua left, Mu Yunlie sat down beside Yan Qianyi and, without saying anything, reached out and touched her head.
Yan Qianyi looked at him, "I lost, your judgnt was indeed correct."
"Fool, we don’t need to compete over winning or losing, getting to the truth of the matter is what’s most important. I heard what Yan Chuhua said just now; do you still not trust my little aunt?"
"It’s not that I don’t trust her, it’s just..." Yan Qianyi didn’t know how to describe her feelings at the mont.
"I understand." Mu Yunlie nodded, "My little aunt has been cleared of suspicion, and now you feel aimless, not knowing who the killer is or how to find him, so you feel very lost for the mont, I understand your desire to avenge your mother."
"Yeah." Yan Qianyi leaned her head on Mu Yunlie’s shoulder, suddenly feeling very weary.
Mu Yunlie kissed her forehead, "I will help you investigate this matter, don’t think too much now, just rest well, I’ll take you back to bed to sleep."
"Just let lean on you like this." Yan Qianyi closed her eyes.
Right now, she suddenly felt incredibly fatigued; this position made her feel comfortable, and she didn’t want to move at all.
Mu Yunlie gently spoke to her, chatting sporadically.
Soon, Yan Qianyi fell asleep on his shoulder.
He gently picked her up and placed her on the bed.
While occasionally receiving ssages asking for instructions from his subordinates, he dealt with work while watching over her.
In the following days, Mu Yunlie stayed ho and kept Yan Qianyi company.
Yan Qianyi’s health also improved day by day, occasionally getting out of bed to move around and treat herself with alchemy.
One day, Yan Qianyi spent a long ti in the lab, and Mu Yunlie urged her to go lie down in bed.
She confidently said, "Don’t be so nervous. I’m almost fully recovered now. You’ve been with these past days, go ahead with your work. I’m really fine."
Mu Yunlie was sowhat skeptical, "Are you sure?"
"Of course, I am the Masked Divine Doctor after all. I said I could save the child and I ant it." Yan Qianyi lifted her chin and smiled at Mu Yunlie, "See, isn’t my complexion rosy? I’m looking much better already."
Mu Yunlie held back and gently kissed her cute cheek, comparing her current healthier look to her previous pallor.
Yan Qianyi then said, "Don’t stay ho with today, go help the Commander sort out the Morris Empire’s affairs, so we can get married sooner."
She had noticed that although Mu Yunlie had always been by her side, he would still receive voice calls and occasionally had to send ssages.
She knew he was very busy, only staying ho because he was worried about her.
Mu Yunlie said, "Speaking of the Morris Empire, I just received so good news. Dempsey will be executed tomorrow. Your brother has given the Federation Empire a satisfactory explanation, and the relations between the two empires won’t be affected by Dempsey’s previous actions."
"That’s wonderful!" Yan Qianyi smiled even brighter, eagerly asking, "When is the agreent going to be signed?"
"It will be signed tomorrow. Your brother, to show his sincerity, has revised so content of the agreent. He canceled two concessions that the Federation Empire had made in the initial agreent."
"So, after the new year, my brother and sister-in-law can attend our wedding?"
"Yeah, if you’re not too tired today, I’ll have the designer co over to tailor your wedding dress. We need to hurry."
"Okay, I’m not tired, let’s have the designer co."
"I’ve set the wedding date for the 10th day of the new year, do you have any objections?"
"No objections, whatever you decide is fine."
Seeing Yan Qianyi’s obedient and sweet deanor, Mu Yunlie’s heart lted. He couldn’t resist giving her an early dose of happiness, so he said, "On the day of the wedding, I’ve prepared a huge surprise for you."
