Chapter 60 Past Kindness
Mu Ling went downstairs to get some food and walked back to the room. When Zi Yu saw him coming in, he turned his head and refused to look at him. Mu Ling put the things on the head of the bed and reached out to grab Zi Yu's hand: "Zi Yu, let's eat something."
Ziyu turned his head away and snorted coldly:
"Don't eat."
Seeing Ziyu's stubborn temper, Mu Ling felt helpless and said in a pissy manner:
"If you don't eat, I'll get you to eat."
As soon as he spoke, Mu Ling was stunned. He had said this to Ziyu a long time ago.
Mu Ling remembered that he was an ordinary secret guard at that time, doing thankless work every day and having to endure the scolding of his superiors. That time, Mu Ling was sent out by the leader to track an official. But that official was too difficult, and Mu Ling finally returned to the Taifu Mansion with the last bit of strength.
Later, he was sentenced to three days in prison by the leader for not completing his mission, and ordered other secret guards not to send him anything. Just as he was hungry, he pressed his chest against his back, Zi Yu appeared in front of him like a savior.
Zi Yu held two steamed buns in his hand and stuffed them into Mu Ling's arms: "Eat quickly." Zi Yu and Mu Ling both lived in the same room, but they were not very familiar with each other. At most, they just met and said hello. But what moved Mu Ling was that when he was punished, the one who gave him food would be Zi Yu.
Mu Ling ate the two steamed buns voraciously and said:
"Thanks."
"No." Ziyu's cheeks were a little red, and he waved his hand and said:
"No, you have a good meal, I'll leave first."
He came to give Mu Ling secretly, and it would be bad if others discovered it. Because of these two steamed buns, Mu Ling and Zi Yu became friends. It was time for Mu Ling to be promoted to the leader, and that day happened to be the day when Zi Yu's mother passed away. Zi Yu did not see her mother for the last time because of the mission, and he heard the news after he came back.
Zi Yu fainted on the spot, and when he woke up, he sat on the bed like a wooden man.
"Ziyu, I've had a meal." "No." Ziyu was in a bad mood and spoke coldly. Mu Ling was a little angry when she saw Ziyu like this:
"If you don't eat, you'll get it." He always treats Ziyu as his brother, so he speaks a little insanity: "If you don't eat, you'll get it." As he said that, he poured the food into Ziyu's mouth. Ziyu was so drunk that he had a little cough, but he still ate the food. Ziyu was about to scold Mu Ling, but then he heard Mu Ling say:
"If you don't eat, your body will collapse. If you collapse, your mother will be sad. And I will be sad."
"You." Ziyu, "You." Ziyu was choked by this sentence and could not find a reason to refute for a while. He had to look at him in disappointment.
Seeing Ziyu's smile becoming deeper and deeper, Mu Ling shook the porridge in front of him:
"So, do you want me to feed you or do you eat it yourself?" Mu Ling is a man after all, and his strength is still very strong. Do you want to let him drink porridge?
Zi Yu said, "I'll eat it myself." As he said that, he picked up the spoon and slowly started to make porridge. When Mu Ling saw Zi Yu like this, the big stone in his heart fell to the ground. He sat next to him and watched him eat, and he left the room until he finished eating. Zi Yu said, "Your temper has not changed after so many years."
"It's not so easy to change." Mu Ling sat next to Zi Yu, untied his acupoints, and watched him eat. "You really want to stay here?" Zi Yu looked at Mu Ling while eating, with her eyebrows and eyes full of inquiries. He and Mu Ling both came from the same teacher, and his martial arts skills were no worse than him. But he insisted on staying here, partly because he was worried about Mu Ling.
"Yes." Mu Ling nodded with a firm expression, his face full of determination.
Seeing that Mu Ling had decided, Zi Yu couldn't help but say:
"Since you insist on doing this, I'll go back first."
