Chapter 429: In This Lifetime, I Have Only Loved You

When it comes to maintaining normal interpersonal relationships, she ought to show some concern and offer a bit of advice.

But between her and Jiang Lijuan, the animosity ran deep—they were sworn enemies. Such words naturally never left her lips.

In fact, a cold thought flitted through her mind—what did life or death have to do with her?

"I still have work to do. I'm leaving now. Aunt Zhou will stay a while longer with the kids and keep you company, alright?"

Mu Wanqing stood up and walked to the bedside. Her expression was calm and gentle as she spoke to the man conversationally.

Wen Zhan knew exactly what she was avoiding. He lifted his arm, grabbed her hand, and lightly held onto her fingers, saying, "With me here, you don't need to be afraid."

"I'm not afraid. It's just… seeing someone who disrupts my energy makes my mood worse. You've never forced me before," Mu Wanqing said with a small smile, her tone still mild and soft.
