Chapter 8 - A Visit Before The Moon Rises

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that she was cleaning up, Qin Muxue couldn't help squatting down and smelling the spilt medicine.

A strong and pungent smell intruded into her nostrils.

How ruthless!

Qin Muxue's face immediately darkened. Just as she had expected, there was indeed something wrong with this medicine.

"In the future, if there is any medicine sent over, throw it out."

"What's wrong?" Seeing Qin Muxue's serious expression, Nanny Zhang asked in confusion, "Is there a problem with this medicine?"

"If I take this medicine, the wounds on my body will never heal!" Ou Yangnian was really cruel. She sent this kind of medicine to quicken blood circulation, which would make it impossible for her wounds to heal completely. After a long time, it would fester and rot!

"Who is it?" Qin Muxue was about to go back to sleep when she immediately noticed that there was someone outside.

It was no exaggeration to say that the top female killer in the world had superhuman senses.

"Sister..." A ten-year-old child poked his head out. He was none other than Qin Lei's only legitimate son, Ou Yangnian's son, Qin Muyu.

Qin Muxue frowned. What was he doing here?

Nanny Zhang hurriedly said, "Young Master? Why are you here?"

Nanny Zhang had no hostility toward this child because he was different from the others. He had never done anything to bully Qin Muxue.

"I..." Qin Muyu stood at the door. He was already frowning at such a young age.

He was here to remind Qin Muxue that there was something wrong with that bowl of medicine. He wanted to tell her not to drink it.

Qin Muyu's education taught him that it was wrong to hurt people.

Therefore, when he overheard that there was something wrong with the bowl of medicine, he secretly followed behind Qin Muxue and planned to find an opportunity to remind her.

However, before he could show up, Qin Muxue had already easily solved all the problems and spilt the medicine.

So Qin Muyu stood at the door with a very complicated expression. If he said it out loud, would she believe it? After all, it was his mother who hurt her. Thinking of this, Qin Muyu actually felt very guilty.

As for Qin Muxue, as an assassin, she was an expert in reading the subtle expressions on people's faces. Not to mention that Qin Muyu was still a child, even if it was an adult who was good at hiding their true emotions, Qin Muxue would still be able to find out the truth through his facial expressions.

Therefore, Qin Muxue quickly understood Qin Muyu's heart. At least, he had no malice and was a little more reserved.

Qin Muyu was only ten years old. He was dressed in white clothes. Although he lowered his head, he still had the air of a noble young master. However, Qin Muyu was keeping quiet now, and Qin Muxue didn't know what to say to him. She didn't know how to deal with an innocent child.

Just as the two of them were staring at each other, Tao Su's voice rang out.

"Miss! Nanny Liu is here!"

Nanny Liu had yet to come in when she started yelling, "Oh, my little sweet! Why are you even here?"

When Nanny Liu saw Qin Muyu, she immediately walked over to him and squatted down to check him all over.

"They didn't bully you,did they? Go back quickly! The Old Madame is looking for you everywhere!"

Qin Muyu lowered his head.

"I heard that Sister was injured, so I came to visit her..."

Qin Muyu looked at Qin Muxue timidly as if he had finally found an excuse.

"Oh dear! This is not where you should be going!" Nanny Liu rolled her eyes at Qin Muxue and her servant. Then, she took Qin Muyu's hand and was about to walk out.

Qin Muxue sneered. What did she think this place was? Did she think she could come and go as she wished?

"Nanny Liu," Qin Muxue said loudly, "Did you come here just to find Qin Muyu?"

Seeing that she had stopped her, Nanny Liu could only turn around and say, "Oh my! Third Miss! If you didn't remind me, I would have forgotten! The Old Madame does have something to say to you!"

The Old Madame referred to Qin Lei's mother.

"It doesn't matter." Qin Muxue smiled.

"After all, Nanny Liu is old. If you forgot it, I can understand.

Does Grandmother have any orders?"

Nanny Liu didn't look very happy. To be humble, she had always called herself old, but she didn't expect that Qin Muxue, that b*tch, would say that directly to her face!

Therefore, she immediately had a bad expression.

"It's the Moon Worship Festival in three days, and there will be a banquet in the Qin mansion. The Old Madame asked me to remind you that you should be ready to attend it. Remember your etiquette!"

The more Nanny Liu looked at Qin Muxue's face, the more she wanted to scold her for being ugly. With her ugly appearance, Qin Muxue still had the nerve to say that she was old! Bah! Even though she was already eighty, she was still a hundred times better-looking than her!

"But Father grounded me. He told me not to leave this place before I got married," said Qin Muxue.

"The Old Master has naturally agreed to Old Madame's orders." Nanny Liu said huffily.

Qin Muxue was not angry. No one in the Qin family had ever respected her. After all, Nanny Liu was one of Old Madame's servants, so she looked down on her even more.

"Sister." Qin Muyu blinked innocently and looked at Qin Muxue.

"In previous years, you didn't attend the banquet for the festival. The banquets were so fun! There were also a lot of delicious food!"

The Moon Worship Festival was actually the Mid-Autumn festival.

"Sister, can you accompany me to see the lanterns this year?" Qin Muyu looked at her expectantly.

"Grandma said that there would be a very big and colourful lantern this year!"

When Nanny Liu heard this, she nearly did a double take. Was Qin Muyu crazy? How could he be hanging around with this b*tch! "Young Master! Let's hurry up and leave!"

Qin Muyu was Qin Lei's only son.
