After sending off Zhengtong, Mu Mingyu was somewhat unhappy.
"Old Madam, she went so far; why don't we tell my uncle and aunt?"
Mu Qiuniang gently shook her head. "There are some things that I cannot say, and neither can you, as my person."
He was her person? Although Mu Mingyu always thought of himself this way, hearing it directly from her made him secretly happy.
"Then... just let Zhengtong bully you like this?"
They were eager to be worshipped, yet they were bullied by outsiders, which felt somewhat displeasing.
"Before this, I always had Jingshu protect her, to prevent any accidents. Now, she has walked out of our protective circle on her own, who knows what might happen." Mu Qiuniang said calmly.
Mu Mingyu froze for a moment. "The people protecting her, have they been withdrawn?"
Mu Qiuniang shook her head, silent.
There's no need to withdraw; just give the other party an opportunity.
