Chapter 778: Chapter 777: How Do You Know He Doesn’t Have You in His Heart?

Long Xinghe stood up and gave Murong Yu a formal bow. "I’ve seen the lady."

Murong Yu smiled. "We are all family here, there is no need for such formalities."

Jiang Tao hurriedly poured her a cup of tea, then stepped aside, silent.

Murong Yu took a seat at the table and looked at Long Xinghe.

Long Xinghe also seated herself with a relaxed grace, devoid of the reticence or pettiness common to young girls.

Indeed, she was a forthright and cheerful young lady.

"Have you met Wuya?"

"Madam, please rest assured, Wuya does not know who I am. Jiang Tao told him I’m an old lady named Jiang, brought back by you to specially prepare his medicine," Long Xinghe replied.

"Good, I understand," Murong Yu nodded, her gaze resting on Long Xinghe’s face, her smile gradually fading.

"There might not be a way..." However, the injury was too severe, disfigured to such an extent, it would be too difficult to restore her former appearance.

"Once Wuya meets Mr. Wu Chenzi, I will leave for Tengbei, so as not to cause any trouble for you, Madam," Long Xinghe said calmly.

Murong Yu raised her eyebrows and then suddenly laughed out loud. "Why do you think I would be bothered or troubled by this?"

Long Xinghe didn’t speak, just looked at her.

Who would want a disfigured monster by their son’s side? Ruined to this extent, impossible to ever heal, she appeared older than Murong Yu herself.

Any woman would wish for such a person to be as far away from her son as possible!

"Heh, most people would indeed think so."

Murong Yu saw right through her thoughts: "However, you can consider that I am not most people."

Long Xinghe looked at her with some surprise.

Murong Yu said, "As for me, I have no great ambitions in this life, other than wishing my son well, and you are the nicest girl I’ve ever seen to my son."

"No one compares to your sincerity and dedication to Wuya, not even Chu Qianli, because in Chu Qianli’s heart, there’s only the King of Xuan."

"Madam, I understand what you mean."

Long Xinghe truly hadn’t expected such open-mindedness from Murong Yu – such a mother-in-law would be desired by all women in the world, no doubt.

It’s just a shame, she couldn’t afford it.

"Madam, I am indeed grateful and moved that you don’t mind my current appearance, but it is impossible for Wuya and I to be together."

"Why?" asked Murong Yu, startled. "Don’t you like him very much?"

"But he doesn’t like me."

"How do you know that? Maybe you are mistaken about your own feelings," Murong Yu regained her smile and said, "How can you be sure that Wuya hasn’t thought of you since your ’departure’?"

Long Xinghe remained silent.

When she was present, Wuya was unwilling to pay her any attention. Why would he think about her after she was gone?

Perhaps her departure was a relief to Feng Wuya.

At least, he wouldn’t have to figure out ways to maintain distance from her.

"Madam, I am truly grateful for your tolerance and acceptance, but please, do not interfere with Wuya and me. It’s impossible for us to be together, and I cannot force him."

Murong Yu wanted to say more, but Long Xinghe was resolute. "Madam, all I wish is to see him safe and sound, and for him to find Mr. Wu Chenzi. Are you asking me to leave earlier than planned?"

"Alright, alright, I won’t speak of it anymore or even mention it. I just hope you can see clearly into Wuya’s heart, he may not be as heartless towards you as you think."

"Madam..."

"Enough, I really won’t say anymore. Someone is coming," Murong Yu turned her head to look at the door.

Jiang Tao and Long Xinghe also focused their attention on the direction of the doorway.

Footsteps were indeed approaching from afar and quickly reached the door.

"Is Old Lady Jiang inside? I’ve brought some snacks for you."

Long Xinghe’s eyes widened in shock.

Wuya?
