章節 130: Chapter 130 the warmth of a dream

作者: Joe Mai 機器翻譯作品

Mu Ru lay in the cellar of the basement. She was trembling, not because of fear, but because she felt extremely cold, as if the temperature on her body was gradually decreasing and ultimately freezing her fragile little body.

Because it was too cold, she wasn't able to sleep. Everything around her seemed hazy. She couldn't clearly hear, but she felt like she heard several footsteps. It was also pitch black inside. It made no difference whether she closed or opened her eyes.

Perhaps it was an illusion, or perhaps it was a dream. She kept her eyes closed. The sound of the footsteps seemed to have faded, and there seemed to be something on her body. It was soft and made her feel very comfortable.

She turned around and wrapped her arms around the soft object that lingered near her body. She felt warmer, and her cold and stiff body was finally able to relax.

Perhaps it was because it was not so cold anymore, or perhaps it was because she felt comforted by the object she held in her arms. Gradually, her eyelids became heavy, and she soon fell asleep.

Dongfang Jun soon returne after his exams in Hong Kong. He bought a set of French oil brushes for Mu Ru and was waiting for her to come down, but he never saw her. He waited from noon until evening, but he did not see any sign of Mu Ru. He approached Ah Min, who was watering the plants, and asked, "Where's the first young madam? I haven't seen her for almost a day. Has she gone to school?"

A Min glanced at Dongfang Jun and then looked around. Then, she whispered to him. "Third Young Master, during the past few days when you were not around, something big happened here. Second Young Madam had a miscarriage. It was caused by the concoction that First Young Madam prepared for her. Thus, First Young Madam was suspected of drugging Second Young Madam. She was locked up in the wine cellar by First Young Master. She has been locked up there for more than a day now."

"What?" Dongfang Jun was shocked. He stared at Ah Min and doubtfully asked, "Is this true? What about Second Brother? What about my mother? Is there no one to uphold justice for Mu Ru?"

Ah Min shook her head and sighed. "I don't know how it all happened, really. After all, I'm just a servant. I can't eavesdrop in the hall. You'd better go ask Aunt Gu." Dongfang Jun quickly turned around to look for his mother. Around that time, his mother was not at home. Mother Liu told him that his mother went to the hospital to see Xi Muxue.

Dongfang Yu was not at home either. Dongfang Jun did not think that Dongfang Yu would be of any help in Mu Ru's case. He believed that Dongfang Yu was probably at some woman's place or at the casino. He was a useless, lazy young master.

"Mother Liu, where's the key to the wine cellar?" Dongfang Jun asked. He decided to go to the wine cellar himself. He knew how cold the wine cellar was, and it was impossible to keep oneself warm inside.

"The key to the wine cellar is not with me," Mother Liu said as she shook her head and smiled bitterly. "It is probably with the eldest young master. You'd better ask him about it."

Dongfang Jun walked helplessly towards the entrance of the main house. He was planning on calling his mother to ask about the key, but before he could take out his phone, he saw two cars driving into the courtyard. One was Dongfang Yu's. The other one was his mother's.
