Chapter 999: Chapter 999 - You Like Long Muyan

Qin Shu walked into the warehouse. It was no different from the last time she was here. The only difference was that there was an extra bed and quilt.

At this moment, Long Muyan was sitting at the head of the bed. His hands were still tied behind his back, but his clothes had been changed, and he was no longer wearing rags.

His head drooped weakly. His back was pressed against the wall behind him. Almost all the weight of his body was pressed against it.

“How are you, Long Muyan?” Qin Shu strode over and sat down on the edge of the bed. She first checked his injuries.

When she lifted his clothes, she saw layers of white gauze wrapped around his body. She could also smell the strong smell of disinfectant.

Long Muyan noticed that his clothes were lifted up, and he subconsciously moved aside.

“Don’t move. It won’t be good if you pull on the wound.” Qin Shu reminded him and put down the hem of his clothes. Long Muyan didn’t move again. He raised his head to look at Qin Shu. His dark eyes reflected her figure, but he didn’t say a word.

Qin Shu felt a little unfair over his circumstance. “The Long Clan is really ruthless. It’s fine that they had punished you according to the family rules, but they still locked you here.”

Long Muyan only listened and did not reply.

Qin Shu continued, “I’ve already seen that Long Xiao. She’s very similar to someone I used to know. I’m guessing that it’s very likely to be her. However, I don’t have any evidence now. I’ll wait for the news from Hao Ze.”

Long Muyan continued to listen and did not speak.

Qin Shu was already used to Long Muyan’s silence. She suddenly thought of something and asked him, “Do you have a photo or portrait of your aunt?”

Long Muyan shook his head.

Qin Shu nodded to show understanding. “That’s understandable. Your aunt ran away from home when she was sixteen. You were only two or three years old. You won’t remember anything or anyone.”

At this moment, Long Muyan suddenly said, “Grandpa…”

Just as Long Muyan opened his mouth to speak, Qin Shu heard footsteps. She suddenly reached out to cover his mouth, blocking his unfinished sentence.

Long Muyan shut his mouth tightly and stared at Qin Shu.

Qin Shu made a silent gesture before she moved her hand away.

Outside the window, Long Xiao walked over quietly and stuck her head out to look inside the warehouse. She saw Qin Se sitting on the bed. The two of them seemed to be just chatting

“You don’t say anything all day long. If you’re wrong, admit it. Isn’t being locked here torture?” Qin Shu sighed helplessly as she spoke.

Long Muyan lowered his head and didn’t speak anymore.

Qin Shu continued, “Miss Long is a beautiful and kind person. She’s also a pretty decent person. I’ll go out later and plead with her to let you out.”

A trace of doubt flashed in Long Xiao’s eyes.

Qin Shu stared at Long Muyan for quite a while. He lowered his head slightly, and his long bangs covered most of his facial features. His nose bridge was high and straight, and his eyes were dark. Even if he lowered his eyes, she could still see his dark eyebags under his long eyelashes.

Although she had seen his facial features the last time, she had not been able to see them clearly.

She suddenly reached out her hand and reached for his forehead, lifting up his bangs. Long Muyan suddenly raised his head. It made him a little unaccustomed when his bangs were suddenly lifted up.

Long Muyan’s raised head allowed her to see his face clearly. His facial features were very well defined, his brows and eyes were deep, and his skin was very pale. He looked a little like a mixed-blood.

The ink-colored flower mark on his right cheek looked a little like… she could not recall it at the moment.

Because he did not like having his bangs lifted and others staring at him, Long Muyan’s dark eyes shifted uncomfortably from side to side. In the end, he simply lowered his eyes.

The more she looked at him, the more familiar he felt.

“You’re quite handsome. It’ll be better if you trim your bangs. It’ll also be much better if you talk more often.”

Long Muyan raised his eyes again with doubt.

Knowing that there were still people outside the warehouse, she didn’t say much. “You stay here. I’ll go find Miss Long and let you out as soon as possible.”

Outside the warehouse, Long Xiao turned around and left with a doubtful mind.

Qin Shu also walked out of the warehouse at the same time. She turned around and took a glance. The two guards closed the heavy warehouse, making a rather loud noise.

She retracted her gaze and walked away.

Qin Shu went straight to Poria cocos. Long Xiao was still lying on the armchair reading a book when she entered. There was a pot of tea on the coffee table, and the top of the cup was emitting wisps of steam. The fragrance of the tea permeated the air. There was an incense burner on the cabinet not far behind her, and a faint aroma drifted out.

“Miss Long seems to be very relaxed.” She walked over and sat down on the chair opposite her.

Long Xiao smiled faintly. She put down the book in her hand and raised her eyes to ask her, “You’re back, Miss Qin. How is my brother?”

“What’s good about being locked in the warehouse? I’ve said so much, but he hasn’t said a single word. It feels like talking to a wall.” Qin Shu smiled somewhat helplessly.

Long Xiao said, “Miss Qin still dares to talk to my brother. I don’t even dare to talk to him.”

“He just closed himself off from the world and doesn’t allow anyone in, so you would think he’s very closed-off.”

“Miss Qin understands my brother very well.”

“I’ve only read articles that have similar autistic tendencies.”

Qin Shu glanced at Long Xiao. “Miss Long, can you help Long Muyan plead for forgiveness? He won’t say a word with his personality, and he won’t admit his mistakes. After all, he’s the eldest grandson of the Long Clan. The Leader of Long Clan will definitely feel sorry for him if he’s locked up there.”

“Could it be that Miss Qin has taken a liking to my brother?” Long Xiao covered her mouth and laughed after she said that. Qin Shu was stunned for a moment before she laughed out loud as well. She made use of her misunderstanding and answered ambiguously, “Long Muyan is rather nice, apart from the fact he doesn’t speak.”

Swert

“That means you like him, right?” Long Xiao smiled and lifted the fox fur blanket on her leg. “Then I’ll look for Grandfather to plead for him.”

Qin Shu did not explain herself. She only said, “Thank you, Miss Long.” As she watched Long Xiao walk out gracefully, her way of speaking was slightly different from Yan Shuang’s. However, from the fact that she was brought back from the sea by Yang Jin and his father, she could confirm that Long Xiao was Yan Shuang. After returning to her room, she received a call from Hao Ze.

“I’ve sent someone to North Star. The Yan family has a daughter named Yan Shuang. She fell into the river two months ago and went missing. Until now, she has not been found. The Head of the Yan family could not take the blow and was hospitalized. I’ve seen Yan Shuang’s photo. She’s very similar to long Xiao. You knew about this before, didn’t you?”

Hao Ze emphasized the last sentence.

“Yes, I was just confused before. Now, I can confirm that Long Xiao is Yan Shuang.”

Hao Ze frowned when he heard that. “I understand.”

Qin Shu wanted to say something else, but Hao Ze hung up the phone.

She felt that Hao Ze was very concerned about this matter.

In the evening, Tao’er, the maid taking care of Long Xiao, sent a message. “Miss Qin, Young Master Yan has been sent back to the Heavy Wood Courtyard.”

Qin Shu felt that it was a little unbelievable when she heard this. It had only been less than two hours, and Long Xiao was already able to persuade Long Size. She had also found some relevant information about Long Size.

Long Size had married two wives in his lifetime. The first wife was a political marriage and passed away shortly after giving birth to his eldest son.

The second, his most beloved wife, gave birth to two sons and a daughter but died from blood loss while giving birth to the youngest daughter.
