Capítulo 9: Chapter 9; What are you thinking about?
"We are sorry, Third Master Mu; it's due to our negligence that she was out there late at night." Mu Shuang went down onto her knees kowtowing! For the very first time, she was afraid of her brother, she knew he was principled and ruthless but hadn't thought he wouldn't have any familiarity with her after being siblings for some years.
The man in front of her was so cold and those eyes were gazing at her as some garbage he was unfamiliar with.
"We apologize..." The other family members also went down onto their knees apologizing; no matter what they said or explained, it wouldn't exonerate them from all this mess.
"Mommy, Daddy... You don't have to be so skeptical! Uncle Mu is just worried about my health! I'm sure he is a reasonable person." She weakly spoke up, followed by a series of coughs indicating how sick and weak she was with all the cold weather.
They glared at her with hatred and she could feel it with her eyes closed.
Hearing her coughing, he tightened the blanket around her to keep her warm.
"Let's go, you can sleep somewhere else! I can't let you spend one more night in such kind of a room." And that was the fact, he wasn't going to let her sleep there.
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about rooms; there's a guest room on the first floor; it's big and has a huge bed that can fit the two of us perfectly fine without squeezing ourselves! What do you think? It's so late, and I feel so sleepy, and you also need to rest!" She innocently spoke up as those warm and seductive eyes gazed into his eyes.
She knew his flight had been postponed because of how idle he was accompanying her.
Third Master Mu turned around and gazed into those innocent bubbly eyes.
Did she suggest they sleep in one room? Wasn't she conscious of the fact that he was a man and she was a young girl, but then again, he wouldn't leave her alone here in this mansion to be eaten by these wolves.
"Zhou Yuxi! How can you carelessly say that? How can you sleep with your Uncle?" Mu Shuang was infuriated to no end; this girl's presence was just trouble and a never-ending one.
"Mommy? What are you thinking about? I love and respect Uncle so much! He treats me like a baby! Don't try to corrupt him!" She weakly spoke up, refuting her mother's claim, looking just like the baby she was. Her Uncle loved and adored her, why would she insinuate something like that?
Mu Shuang felt like vomiting and fainting! What did she mean by a baby? She was eighteen years old already and headed nineteen; how could she not be conscious of her body? She was a growing girl for God's sake.
"Zhou Yuxi, if you sleep with your Uncle Mu, what would happen if a word got out there? Your chastity and Mu Yunchen's dignity would be soiled or compromised! How would you be married in the future?" Zhou Xiajong couldn't keep quiet any longer. With all the pain, she needed to stop these two from getting closer.
"You are the ones thinking too much! I'm just a little girl! How can you even think like that? Uncle Mu, do you think I'm at fault? It's okay if you want to sleep in another room!" She spoke up with an aggrieved voice while her eyes innocently watered.
"They are the ones thinking too much! Let's go, I'll put you to bed!" He got up with her in his arms and trudged forward towards the foot of the stairs before climbing up to the First floor.
With Zhou Yuxi directing him, they got over to the said guest room, it was huge and cozy! Actually, it was Mu Shuang's spare room.
