The death of his beloved wife made him dote on his youngest daughter even more, pampering her in all ways.

  He had also made it clear that a Long Size’s daughter, they are not allowed to be married off, and neither allowed to marry someone less capable. They could only find someone to marry into the family, and the requirements for the son-in-law were also very high.

  Long Xiao was able to persuade Long Size so easily, which showed how much Long Size doted on this granddaughter of his.

  Otherwise, why would he be so ruthless to his eldest grandson?

  After Tao’er finished reporting the news, she turned around and left.

  Qin Shu looked at Tao’er’s back as she left. She had specially come to notify her, probably because she wanted to see how much she cared about Long Muyan.

  She called Ye Luo to order Chinese food and also asked him to buy some candy.

  Candy was something Qin Shu had to eat every day, especially after Fu Tingyu went missing. She consumed an excessive amount of candies every day, hoping that the person who had prevented her from eating candy would remind her to eat less candy and be careful of getting a toothache.

  Ye Luo was very efficient. An hour later, Qin Shu received a call and went to the door to collect her things.

  Like her, Ye Luo was also in disguise. He stood at the door with a food box and a convenience bag in his hand.

  When Qin Shu took the things, Ye Luo lowered his voice and said, “Madam Fu, I’m being followed.”


  Then, Ye Luo said, “There were no other flavors of candy in the nearby shops. Only pineapple and milk flavored candy were available.”


  “As long as you have them.” Qin Shu also lowered her voice. “Let them follow you. If you have nothing to do, stay in the hotel.”


  “Okay.” Ye Luo answered.

  “If anything happens, send an email.”


  After saying this, Qin Shu carried the two bags and turned around to walk into the Long Manor.

  Ye Luo also turned around and got into the car, driving to the hotel.

  At this time, a figure walked out from the side door. He glanced at Qin Shu, who went in, then looked at Ye Luo, who had already driven away and then hurriedly walked in.

  Poria cocos

  On the dining table, there were all kinds of delicious looking and smelling dishes.

  Long Xiao was elegantly eating her dinner with her chopsticks when she heard the sound of footsteps behind her. Then, she stopped to see the person who came and said, “They didn’t say anything. Miss Qin just took the food and returned.”


  Long Xiao stopped chewing. “With the food?”


  “It’s Chinese food,” the person said.

  “Is she not used to the food here?” “Miss Qin took the food box and went to Heavy Wood Courtyard.”


  Long Xiao slowly chewed the food in her mouth. She was deep in thought. Did Qin Se really like Long Muyan?

  She ordered, “Continue to keep an eye on her.”


  “Okay.” The person silently turned around and left.

  Qin Shu took the food box and walked straight into the Heavy Wood Courtyard. The courtyard was still the same. When she walked into the living room, it was already cleaned up.

  She placed the food box in her hand on the dining table and opened it. She took out the food boxes and placed them on the table one by one. Then, she opened the lid of the food box, and the aroma of rice wafted out from inside.

  She had asked Ye Luo to order some light dishes because Long Muyan was injured.

  She licked her lips. She had not eaten dinner, so she was a little hungry when she saw the food.

  Long Muyan was injured, so he should be in his room.

  She turned around and walked to the door of the room. When she realized that the door was open, she walked straight in and saw Long Muyan sitting on the bed. The clothes on his upper body were completely removed. There were whip marks all over his body, from his shoulders to his slim waist, and blood could be seen everywhere.

  There was also the whip mark on his lower jaw. If it had gone any higher, half of his face would have been disfigured.

  Long Muyan was changing his dressing and did not expect someone to come in suddenly. For a moment, he was stunned and forgot about his hand in the air.

  Long Muyan’s body was full of whip marks. It was impossible for him to change the dressing by himself.

  There was not a single servant in the Heavy Wood Courtyard.

  “Let me help you.” Qin Shu walked over and stood in front of Long Muyan. She looked at the medicine on the bedside table at the side, picked up a cotton swab, dipped it in the medicine, walked to his back, and applied the medicine on the wound with caution.

  Long Muyan’s back stiffened, and he didn’t dare to move. For so many years, he had been doing everything by himself. He felt a little embarrassed and uncomfortable when someone suddenly helped him.

  He didn’t even dare to raise his head, and his back was stiff.

  Sensing Long Muyan’s uneasiness and nervousness, Qin Shu said, “When I was young, my mother went missing unexpectedly. My father married the mistress and brought his illegitimate daughter. From then on, not only did I lose my mother, but also my father; he only cared about the mistress and his illegitimate daughter. He didn’t care about me and would sometimes hit me.”


  Long Muyan moved, and he looked up at Qin Shu.

  Qin Shu continued, “That’s all in the past. He didn’t treat me as a daughter, and I didn’t treat him as a father. I’m doing very well now. Look at me if you don’t believe me.”


  She grinned at him. Although her skin was a little darker, her smile was very bright, and it was even warmer than the sunshine in March. Long Muyan was stunned. He had forgotten that Qin Shu was still applying the medicine for him. The feeling of nervousness and uneasiness was instantly blocked out, and he just listened quietly. “At that time, I had a scar on my face, and it was even worse than yours. I didn’t speak or communicate with others at that time. Being isolated by my classmates was the least of my problems.”


  scar 0

  “Later on, I ignored them completely. She wanted to embarrass me and make me cry, but I had to laugh for them to see. They said that I couldn’t get into a university, but I insisted on going to Imperial College.”


  “When I had nothing to do, I went online, watched movies, and went on a trip. Being happy is very important.”


  As Qin Shu spoke, she bandaged his wound.

  As for his lower jaw, Qin Shu used Boss’s scar-dispelling ointment, and the effect was instant.

  Seeing Long Muyan staring at her, dark eyes full of sympathy, she was a little embarrassed. She said this story not to gain sympathy but to let him know that there is light after darkness.

  “People have to look forward. I have long forgotten the past.” The moment she knew that her mother was not dead, she was relieved. As long as her mother was still alive, it was better than anything.

  Seeing that Long Muyan was still sitting there without moving, she urged, “Alright, put on your clothes and go eat. I’ve asked someone to order Chinese food.” Only then did Long Muyan realize that he was not wearing his clothes. He hurriedly picked up his clothes, put on his coat, and followed Qin Shu out.

  After Qin Shu sat down, she made herself home and picked up her chopsticks to eat.

  Long Muyan glanced at the food in front of him, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and also began to eat slowly.

  Long Muyan stayed in the Heavy Wood Courtyard all year round and did not even walk through the gate of Heavy Wood Courtyard, much less the main gate of the Long Manor.

  Therefore, he had never eaten the food from the outside. Every day, the food was delivered to the courtyard on time.

  “You have injuries on your body, so you can only eat bland food. I don’t knowwhat you like either.”


  Qin Shu ate a few mouthfuls of rice and asked him, “Do you like hotpot? There’s both spicy and non-spicy flavors.”


  Long Muyan nodded.

  Qin Shu saw that he only nodded and didn’t say anything, so she said, “Don’t just nod, you have to speak up. If you speak up, I’ll bring you to eat it next time.”


  Long Muyan opened his mouth and said two words, “I like it.”


  Qin Shu nodded in satisfaction. “Then, when you’ve recovered, I’ll bring you to eat it.”
