His Days are Numbered

"Although you're a little older than he imagined his sister to be, he really likes you. He's afraid you'll dislike him and call him a monster, so he chose to stay in the mountains..."

Mu Jingshan stared at his obedient daughter. "Do you understand what Dad means?"

A single expression of disgust from Gu Qingqing could be fatal for Mu Chengxu now.

Gu Qingqing felt a bit strange inside, but she couldn't help asking, "Does my brother really... like me?"

In her mind, all she could see was Ye Chengxuan's disdain and disgust towards her, wishing to drive her out of the house and never see her again.

Mu Jingshan had heard about what happened to the girl at the Ye family. Seeing her eyes full of doubt and hesitation, he gently placed his hand on her shoulder. "Of course!"

The girl lowered her eyes, her lips twitched slightly, and there was a faint dimple on her still face, appearing and disappearing.

Mu Jingshan breathed a sigh of relief.
