"I......"


Mu Lingzhu looked around at the people ridiculing her, she opened her mouth but was at a loss for words, she didn’t know how she should defend herself.


Then, she looked at Mu Yunjin who was sitting quietly on the side, indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with her at all.


As Mu Lingzhu took all this in, she was seething. This whole thing was clearly Mu Yunjin's fault. How could she still have no qualms about it?


Mu Yunjin had already led her Muqin to death, now, she still wouldn't let go of her!


(TL: Actually, it is you who doesn't let go!)


Mu Lingzhu clenched her fist tightly, she’d feel a room full of mocking glares, she didn’t lift her head. In this lifetime, she’d never felt as mortified as she felt now. Looking at the blue-green lake, her heart felt a pang of sadness.


She turned towards Mu Yunjin and gritted her teeth and spoke, "Mu Yunjin, you have caused me this much suffering, I will not let you have a clear conscience all your life."


They saw Mu Lingzhu run outside the ship's cabin, and before anyone could react, they heard a 'splash'.


Outside the cabin, an Imperial bodyguard shouted: "Not good, Mu Cefei jumped into the lake!"


Inside the cabin, everyone heard the shout and scurried outside.


Standing on the side of the boat, Mu Yunjin saw Mu Lingzhu struggle in the water. The Imperial guards at the side were just standing in their place with no intention of jumping into the water.


Mu Yunjin frowned. Chu Qingqiang is very ruthless! If Mu Lingzhu was to really die today, it would only spread that she, Mu Yunjin forced Mu Lingzhu to her death. This kind of reputation, she definitely could not shoulder.


Soon after, another 'splash' was heard. Mu Yunjin had jumped into the lake towards Mu Lingzhu's direction.


On the side of the boat, Rong w.a.n.gfei saw this scene, and exchanged glances with Qin Muyue and Chu Qingqiang.


As Mu Yunjin jumped into the lake, she secretly thought, my fate with water is not simple, I keep jumping into a lake.


By the time Mu Yunjin grabbed Mu Lingzhu, she still had a remnant of consciousness, but looked unwell and seemed to have swallowed some water. That is why when Mu Yunjin came to save her, she didn’t struggle.


With difficulty, Mu Yunjin dragged Mu Lingzhu towards the boat, but it suddenly accelerated, it went towards the center of the lake putting more and more distance between them.


Mu Yunjin looked at everyone standing on the side of the boat, they remained unmoved. She sneered, and channeled her true qi, as she evoked the Xuan Ling Sutra.


A moment later, she sensed her qi gather. She immediately turned her wrist and released a steady stream of true qi from her palm towards Mu Lingzhu. Her half-immersed body hit the surface before she steadily flew to the wooden boat.


The people on the wooden boat saw Mu Lingzhu fly over, they got so scared that they stepped back a few steps. Then they looked at Mu Lingzhu's weak body lying on the deck of the boat.


Rong w.a.n.gfei eyed at Mu Lingzhu lying on the ground with an indiscernible expression then made gestures towards a guard at one side with her eye.


The Imperial bodyguard immediately stepped forward and began to help Mu Lingzhu throw up the lake water she had ingested.


Mu Yunjin saw Mu Lingzhu successfully board the boat, then as she looked at the people who still stood unmoved, her eyes became colder.


Just as she wanted to use qinggong to fly off the lake, a violent wind suddenly engulfed the Ying Guang Lake and the still lake turned into a giant whirlpool.


Mu Yunjin was shocked as she distanced herself from the whirlpool, she obviously felt that this whirlpool was imbued with flowing qi.


This whirlpool is being controlled by someone!


Mu Yunjin saw the whirlpool approaching closer to her. Not good! She wanted to quickly use qinggong to disengage from this situation, but she discovered that she was unable to release her true qi. Seeing that the whirlpool was closing in on her, Mu Yunjin's heart sank and she began to swim forward.


At the same time, a shout was heard from the boat, "It's going to rain, we must go back first!"


(TL: Oh my! This is a blatant attempt to murder!)


Seeing the boat getting further away, Mu Yunjin looked around only to find that this Ying Guang Lake was extremely wide. She was right at the center of the Lake; a moment wasn’t enough to reach the sh.o.r.e!


Thinking up to here, Mu Yunjin was glad that she’d had Zi Xiang remain at the sh.o.r.e, otherwise, it would’ve complicated things.


As she was thinking, the whirlpool pressed on towards Mu Yunjin, and suddenly a big wave of water splashed along with the whirlpool, swallowing her whole body.


......


Mu Yunjin was suddenly sucked towards the bottom of the lake. While still retaining the little consciousness left, she covered her mouth and nose. Her whole body was trapped in the whirlpool rendering her immobile.


Is she really going to die this time?


In the haze, Mu Yunjin felt around her a warm embrace, as she floated little by little towards the light.


(TL: I was thinking of another light but no she is still alive. Darn my imagination! Hahaha)


She didn’t know for how long, but the feeling of choking disappeared. She faintly opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar face.


"Muyue, you have played excessively!"


"Ge, it's not me...."


(TL: Finally showing your true colors Muyue?!)


"Xiaojie, xiaojie, how are you?...."


As Mu Yunjin was surrounded by the voices, her head spun, she groaned as her last streak of consciousness faded away.


......


Liu Huangzifu.


"Reporting to Liu Huangzi, Huangzifei was fortunate to be saved in time. There is no major problem, she should rest and recuperate for a few days." A senior physician stood beside Mu Yunjin taking her pulse, as he cautiously looked at her ashen complexion.


Chu Li's calm countenance rested on the pale and unconscious woman on the bed, his cold face turned towards Zi Xiang. "What happened today?"


Zi Xiang frightened by his frostiness knelt and cried, "Today, xiaojie did not take nubi along on the boat and merely stayed on the sh.o.r.e. But saw Si Xiaojie suddenly jump into the water and soon after xiaojie also jumped down. Then those people returned to the sh.o.r.e with the boat but did not see xiaojie. Then finally, the Qin family's shaoye saved xiaojie....."


"Ding Xian, go investigate." Chu Li wrinkled his brows, he uttered the words with an unprecedented ice-cold killing intent.


When Ding Xian went out, Shen Momo by the bed was circling around, "How could this happen? A perfectly fine person, just going to appreciate the lake but ended up falling into the lake again."


"Shen Momo, you didn't know, those people actually left xiaojie behind, saying it is going to rain and the lake is not tranquil, and they returned first and went about to find someone to save xiaojie......"


"This..." Shen Momo wanted to say something but hesitated. She stole a glance at Chu Li who was on the edge of flying into rage, not daring to continue.


(TL: I really thought it should be Zi Xiang hesitating. But raws said it was Shen Momo.)


"You go out first." Chu Li ordered.


Shen Momo and Zi Xiang glanced at each other before obeying.


In the room, it was suddenly just Chu Li and Mu Yunjin.


..........


Chu Li's face was very grave as he stood beside Mu Yunjin's bed. This was the first time he’d seen this ‘foxy’ and noisy woman, deathly pale as she laid on the bed. His heart held a hard to explain feeling.


"Ke, ke, ke......"


After who knows for how long, the sounds of cough ruffled the serenity of the room.


Mu Yunjin slowly woke up, her throat felt as if on fire, with misty eyes she stretched out her hand and wrinkled her brows, "Zi Xiang, water."


A moment later, a cup of warm water was stuffed into her hand.


Mu Yunjin propped her body to sit up, then she drank the cup of water before dazedly kneading her temples. "Zi Xiang, when did I come back?"


"One shichen* ago."


(TL: shichen* is like saying one hour but I think the one hour we know is two hours for them because their 12 periods of time consist of 2 hours per period. Am I making sense?)


"En." Mu Yunjin acknowledged, then, just as she was preparing to lie back and sleep, she suddenly quivered. When she looked to her side, she was surprised to see the person beside her bed.


"Why are you here?"


When Chu Li heard her energetic voice, he couldn't help a sigh. Where is the weak and feeble woman from earlier? This woman is really something.


"Who do you wish were here?" Chu Li asked. Seeing that she was fine, his heart secretly relaxed.


Mu Yunjin twitched the corners of her mouth. She recalled that before she lost consciousness there was an unfamiliar man who saved her.


Afterwards, it seemed that she’d heard Qin Muyue call him Ge. Could it be that the one who saved her was Qin Munan?


(TL: Is he the one!? Is he supposed to be our second ML!? From the Qin family of all families?! Author-nim is this a joke??)


As she was thinking, there was a knock on the door.


"Your Highness." Ding Xian's voice came from the other side.


"Come in."


Ding Xian pushed the door open and entered. Seeing Mu Yunjin was awake, he immediately felt relieved and smiled, "Huangzifei, it's good that you are alright, you did not see His Highness’ worried......"


Ding Xian swallowed the rest of his words when he saw the serious and cold eyes on him. He immediately closed his mouth and embarra.s.sedly smiled.


"Your Highness, we already found out everything." Ding Xian stopped smiling and approached Chu Li to whisper.


Subsequently, he meticulously relayed the events that unfolded at Ying Guang Lake.


Mu Yunjin was leaning on the headboard, listening to Ding Xian's narrative. When the events from Ying Guang Lake came back to life before her eyes, they turned frigid.


Rong w.a.n.gfei, Chu Qingqiang, Qin Muyue... Among the trio is also the one who manipulated the whirlpool that almost killed her.


Is she, Mu Yunjin easy to bully? The future is long, just you wait!


When Ding Xian finished his report, he tactfully retreated. The room was quiet again.


"Are you going to vent anger for me?" After a long time, Mu Yunjin broke the silence, her eyes revealed a trace of amus.e.m.e.nt as she smiled at Chu Li.


Chu Li saw the dramatic change in her demeanor that turned faster than flipping a book. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, as he looked at her questioningly, "Do you hope for benhuangzi to vent anger on your behalf?"


"Forget it, don't meddle. I will settle this myself." Mu Yunjin's eyes held an arctic killing intent.


Chu Li placed his hands over Mu Yunjin's shoulder, his eyebrows furrowed, seemingly displeased at Mu Yunjin's murderous aura, "What do you want to do? Benhuangzi will help you."


"Why are you being nice to me?" Mu Yunjin bit her lip, and slightly raised an eyebrow.


"You are under benhuangzi's name, one of my people. Today's matter, it isn’t just your matter anymore." Chu Li replied.


When Mu Yunjin heard those words, she was suddenly elated. She perked up and looked at Chu Li's deep eyes, "Today's matter, half of it was Chu Qingqiang's provocation. I’d made a private agreement with her, each keeps to their own boundaries. Apparently, she’s forgotten. If that is the case, then I shall personally destroy her. I will let her know that I, Mu Yunjin am not someone she can bully!"
