43 She'll be alright..

When Elder Quin saw Mo Yu Min, he smiled and stood up and waited for Mo Yu Min to sit and gave him tea. Then he seated his self on the opposite side of the table.

There was a long period of silence until Elder Quin started the conversation with a smile. All the while looking at Mu Yu Min who was just drinking his tea silently.

"I heard that the little girl will enter Shénmì..." Elder Quin said but Mo Yu Min did not speak.

"About the same time, a long time ago, I remember when your mother entered the university, she was the same age as the little girl."

There was an indiscernible look on Elder Quin's face while murmuring.

"Your mother... she was one of my best students." Elder Quin sighed and continued ".... I can still remember the conflicts between her and your father..."

"That little girl....." Elder Quin suddenly looked at the window with a smile and continued talking. "She even surpassed all of you just like what's expected of her.."

Looking back at Mo Yu Min, the smile on Elder Quin's lips disappeared and spoke with a serious face... "I heard that it was the twins who took her away?"

While listening to the old man, Mo Yu Min kept on staring at the cup on his hand. He raised his head when he heard Elder Quin's question.

"She'll be alright..."

"Do you really believe that Feng Yun can watch over her?" Elder Quin sneered

"He can manage.."

Elder Quin quickly said.. "Manage? you want him to be like you?".

Mo Yu Min did not answer, Elder Quin can only change the topic. "You people should stop treating her like a baby."

"She hasn't grown up..." Mo Yu Min reasoned.

Elder Quin: "Hasn't grown up? Isn't her height and body obvious? She is already a woman! After a couple of months she's turning 18 not 6 years old!"

Rage began to rise from Elder Quin's heart. When Mo Yu Min did not respond, his voice began to tremble in anger.

"You and that stinky boy really thought that I won't figure out the reason why you sent her away?!"

Mo Yu Min: "I don't know what you are talking about.."

"Why you...." Elder Quin's face began to turn from white to red in anger.

"You plan for her to get married to protect her and yet, you still treat her like a baby?! Are you stupid?"

Mo Yu Min: "She was sent away to grow up.."

"You're still denying?! Your words doesn't make any sense!" Elder Quin is already mad but Mu Yu Min did not answer.

"Are you trying to lie to me?! Is this what you told ShenRu? No wonder he never suspected anything else..."

"I did not lie." After saying those words, Mo Yu Min stood up and walked towards the stairs.

Elder Quin touched his brows like he had a headache coming and was lost in deep thoughts. No one knows what he was thinking about. He only sighed and followed silently behind Mo Yu Min.

On the second floor, after passing through three doors, they entered a room with full of paintings but stopped in front of a huge painting.

Mo Yu Min pushed some bricks around the painting's edge and then a loud "click" was heard.

The wall then parted and opened a narrow path, exposing a stairway going down.

They went down the stairs until they reached its end. The end revealed a room with walls that looked like it was made of jade.

When they stepped in, Butler Chun and Elder Quin stayed by the entrance but Mo Yu Min walked towards the bed that was enclosed with a red screen curtain.
