445 Only He Remembers (Part 2)

Mu Cong’s behavior was eerie. Usually, whenever they dined at Suzhai Pavilion, he would be the happiest.

Su Yanyu also felt that Mu Cong had stomach pain because he didn’t want to eat anything from Suzhai Pavilion. The expression on his face when he ate the porridge today was really horrible. It was as if he was eating sh*t or something worse than sh*t.

Su Yanyu felt a little uneasy. “Mu Cong, tell me the truth. What happened to you?”

Mu Cong had a complicated expression, hesitating whether he should say it or not.

He was afraid that Su Yanyu wouldn’t believe him even if he said. If he didn’t say, Su Yanyu would continue to pester him. Su Yanyu wasn’t a fool and could already tell from his expression that something was wrong.

While Mu Cong was hesitating, Su Yanyu was even more certain. He grabbed Mu Cong’s clothes and said, “Don’t hesitate. I hate being deceived the most. If you don’t tell me, don’t let me see you again.”

Mu Cong quickly said, “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you.”

Only then did Su Yanyu let go of Mu Cong. “Tell me then. I’m listening.”

Mu Cong pursed his lips and was a little conflicted. “Do you really not remember anything? At night, we saw Miss Liu. Can you remember that?”

Su Yanyu was stunned and immediately became a little nervous. “Was Miss Liu there? Did I say anything bad? Did I offend her?”

Last time, he was almost scared to death at the Cloud Breaking Sect’s prayer meeting. In his heart, Liu Sanniang had become the last person in the world he wanted to offend.

The corners of Mu Cong’s mouth twitched. “No, you… you said you wanted to treat Miss Liu to a meal. Do you really not remember?”

Su Yanyu’s expression froze. He felt his hair stand on end and a chill run down his spine. “I… I’ve seen Miss Liu? Why don’t I remember?”

Mu Cong’s face was pale as well. He trembled as he recounted the entire event. He was Su Yanyu’s lackey. In the future, when Su Yanyu inherited the title from his father, he would be the Marquis. If he made contributions in the future, his title would be even higher. With Su Yanyu backing him up, Mu Cong had nothing to be afraid of.

He naturally wouldn’t hide anything from Su Yanyu. After telling him about it, Mu Cong felt better.

Su Yanyu frowned with a trace of fear in his eyes. His hands were trembling. He wiped his face and gulped. “I’m f*cking scared to death.”

Mu Cong shivered as well. “You don’t know how scared I was when I woke up and realized that none of you remembered…”

Later on, when he swallowed down that mouthful of vegetable porridge, he was almost half-dead. Because he knew the truth, he could no longer smell the fragrance of the vegetable porridge. When he ate it, he really felt half-dead.

Su Yanyu glanced at Mu Cong. “How come you can still remember it?”

Logically speaking, it was impossible for that old woman Hui Zhen to let Mu Cong off.

Even when Su Yanyu heard Mu Cong recount it, he could not remember anything at all.

Judging from how happy Li Wei and Cheng Yan were when they ate, they didn’t seem to remember anything either.

Thinking of this, Su Yanyu sympathized with Mu Cong. No wonder he was trembling when the Daoist nun wanted to keep him. He was afraid that he would be killed if he stayed there.

Mu Cong looked at Su Yanyu’s complicated expression and could not help but ask. “What should we do?”

After telling Su Yanyu what had happened, he felt much better and the stomach pain gradually disappeared.

Su Yanyu rubbed his forehead. “Let me think about this carefully. Hui Zhen has provoked Miss Liu. She’s definitely in for some trouble. During this period of time, I won’t go to Suzhai Pavilion again or even go out. As for you, go back home and don’t step out. Be careful. Hui Zhen is not a good person.”

Mu Cong was afraid. “Your Lordship, that Miss Liu is just a little girl. Can she really defeat Huizhen?”

Mu Cong was afraid of losing his life. Suzhai Pavilion was a money tree for Hui Zhen. She definitely wouldn’t tolerate someone like Mu Cong who knew the truth.

Su Yanyu glanced at Mu Cong. “Don’t look down on Miss Liu. Other than her, I’ve never given a damn about anyone else. There are some things that mortals like you and me don’t understand. It has nothing to do with age.”

Mu Cong nodded. “You are right.”

Su Yanyu rarely bothered about anyone. He was born with a very high status. His sister was a favored consort, so be it the princes or princesses of the royal family, they all had to respect him.

Su Yanyu looked at Mu Cong whose expression was no longer so ugly. Su Yanyu said, “Be careful. If anything happens, go look for Miss Liu. She will help you.”

Mu Cong nodded. “Thank you, Your Lordship.”

When they arrived at the Mu mansion, Mu Cong got off the carriage first. Compared to before, he already looked normal.

Su Yanyu waved his hand and instructed the coachman. “Let’s go back.”

Su Yanyu leaned against the carriage and thought about what Mu Cong had said again. He still couldn’t remember, but he wouldn’t eat anything from Suzhai Pavilion again.

The next day, all the regular customers received vegetarian dishes from Suzhai Pavilion.

When the food was placed on the table, the corners of Su Yanyu’s mouth twitched. “The food in Suzhai Pavilion is as expensive as gold. Why did they suddenly send it away so casually?”

Marquis Su glanced at Su Yanyu. “Just eat. Didn’t you always say that Suzhai Pavilionis is the best place in the capital? Why are you talking instead of eating?”

Mrs. Su smiled. “Speaking of which, it’s all thanks to Yanyu that we can get to taste the food. If it weren’t for him being the regular customer, we wouldn’t have had the food delivered to us.”

Marquis Su snorted coldly. “That’s true. He’s using my money to enjoy quite a good life.”

Their chopsticks were already reaching for the vegetarian dishes. Su Yanyu frowned. He knew that there was something wrong with the dishes, but his parents didn’t. He slammed the table anxiously. “You’re not allowed to eat this!”

Marquis Su frowned, and Mrs. Su frowned too.

Su Yanyu explained with a straight face. “Who are we? Why do we need them to give us free food? What do they take us for?! Someone, throw it all away.”
