Chapter 4671: 5.0423 Could You Bear It?

"Qiao Qiao," Duan Yue called her softly, as if fearing to wake someone from a dream, with a hint of cautiousness.

Qiao Mu turned her head, her eyes clear as she looked at him.

Duan Yue visibly relaxed.

Good, Qiao Qiao didn't seem to be losing control of her emotions. Seeing her tone and state earlier, he had thought she was on the verge of collapse.

He hadn't expected her to adjust so quickly.

Now, her eyes were bright and clear as she looked at him, as if all her previous negative emotions had settled down in an instant.

"Qiao Qiao?"

"I'm fine," Qiao Mu shook her head slightly at him. "Don't worry, I'm okay now."

Duan Yue softly "hmm"-ed, stepping closer to her. "Shall we go out now?"

His gaze fell coldly on Hall Master Mu.

Duan Yue seemed to understand something.

Yes, seeing Hall Master Mu's hysterical state, combined with her words...

Duan Yue keenly guessed that Qiao Qiao hated this woman so much likely because...

She had been persecuted by this woman in her previous life?

Judging by this woman's words, had she truly harmed Qiao Qiao in the previous life?

Although nothing had happened in this life, why did it feel... so chilling to hear?

"Qiao Qiao," Duan Yue stepped closer to her and whispered, "Shall we deal with this uncertain factor?"

Why keep this person alive?

Keep her to bother Qiao Qiao? To make Qiao Qiao recall bad memories every time she saw her?

There's absolutely no need to keep such a person.

"You can't kill me, you can't kill me, you can't kill me!" Mu Qingya turned her head, her hair disheveled, and disregarding how disheveled she was, she lunged, about to pounce at Qiao Mu's feet.

Duan Yue unceremoniously kicked her back into the corner of the wall, admonishing coldly, "Stay away from her."

"What do you know? What do you know?" Mu Qingya shrieked, her emotions breaking down. "What could a favored daughter of heaven like you possibly understand??"

"Can you understand the hardships and difficulties of an ordinary person who has tried countless methods countless times and failed every single time, yet wishes to embark on the path of cultivation?"

"Can you know the helplessness of someone who is unwilling to be ordinary, who wants to bravely move forward, but is constantly driven mad by reality, forced to return to the starting point?"

"You don't understand anything! Nothing at all." Mu Qingya laughed wildly, sharply and satirically. "What right do you have to accuse me? Someone like you, a noble young lady from a prestigious family who has mountains of gold and silver and never worries about food, clothing, or expenses, you don't understand a thing!"

"I don't belong in this godforsaken place at all!"

"I put in all my effort. In the end, I got nothing. That suffering of having nothing, what do you know?!"

"Just like before, I managed the Butterfly Pavilion, the Precious Painting Workshop, the Melancholy Pavilion in the Imperial Capital for so many years, making them thrive... Ha, haha, hahaha! What good was it even if I managed them well? Didn't I have to return everything to you the moment you came back?"

"Just because of that one contract, just because you had land control over them, just because you're the Divine Land Crown Princess, no one could defy your will!"

"All the effort I put in, it all went down the drain, down the drain!"

"If it were you, could you bear it? Could you?"
