Chapter 2039: My Older Sister Died
Mu Ziqi’s instructor told him to stop being so relentless towards his opponents. As long as he won, he should end it peacefully.
Mu Ziqi’s face was ashen and he didn’t speak, ignoring the instructor’s words. There was nothing the instructor could do. After all, this was his proudest student who also had an impressive family background. Mu Ziqi’s grandfather was a pillar of the empire.
“Mu Ziqi, what’s with you?” When Lian Bingmeng found Mu Ziqi, she talked to him with concern.
Mu Ziqi wiped his face and said in an unusually gloomy voice, “My older sister died during the clan training.”
“This…” Lian Bingmeng looked surprised. “How did she die?”
“The people in our family only found her clothes. The corpse had already decayed and been absorbed by the man-eating trees.” Mu Ziqi’s eyes were red. “She was my biological sister.”
Lian Bingmeng comforted Mu Ziqi. She gently said, “A storm may arise from a clear sky; human fortunes are as unpredictable as the weather. Your sister wouldn’t want you to be so heartbroken.”
“My sister was strong and a strong elder associated with our clan even went with her. It’s impossible for her to have died so easily. The family is currently investigating her cause of death.”
“So you guys suspect that there’s another reason behind your sister’s death?” Lian Bingmeng asked. “But how can you confirm that suspicion when there isn’t a corpse?”
“The Mu family has the capacity to investigate.” Mu Ziqi exhaled and looked at the beautiful contours of Lian Bingmeng’s face. “Thank you for comforting me, it’s just hard for me to accept her sudden death”
“It’s alright, we are comrades. Your pain is my pain, we will bear it together.” Lian Bingmeng reached out and patted Mu Ziqi’s shoulder. “You have to cheer up.”
“Thank you.” Mu Ziqi‘s gaze, as he looked at Lian Bingmeng, was filled with love and warmth.
Ning Shu here had prayed not to bump into Mu Ziqi early on. However, in the end, she had to face him in the elimination rounds that narrowed the top 100 to the top 50.
“The next fight—Mu Ziqi vs Yue Shuangshuang.”
Fr*ck.
“Shuangshuang, Mu Ziqi’s sister just passed away. Forgive him if anything happens.”
Ning Shu was about to enter the ring when Lian Bingmeng grabbed Ning Shu and told her such.
Ning Shu: …
Excuse me??
What does that mean?
“So what?” Ning Shu asked.
“Take this.” Lian Bingmeng stuffed a bottle of medicine in Ning Shu’s hand. “Mu Ziqi’s biological big sister recently died. If Mu Ziqi crosses the line with you, you’ll be able to understand, right??”
“You like him, so you can empathize with how much he’s suffering right now.” Lian Bingmeng urged Ning Shu earnestly.
Ning Shu: →_→
What did that even mean? Just because Mu Ziqi’s sister died, she should be his punching bag? Why should Ning Shu care that Mu Ziqi’s big sister died, she wouldn’t care if even his entire family died.
“What if I can’t understand?” Ning Shu looked indifferent, tilting her head and looking at Lian Bingmeng.
Lian Bingmeng was momentarily stunned before she immediately frowned and said, “He’s grieving right now.”
“What does that have to do with me?” Ning Shu irritatedly said. “You know that he’s much stronger than I am, should I be thankful for your medicine? Why don’t you urge him to restrain his emotions instead! Wow, he’s excused from his actions because his big sister just died. “
It wasn’t like anyone owed Mu Ziqi anything. What gave him the right to vent his anger on them?
“Don’t you like him? Why can’t you understand his current mindset? It’s his big sister!” Lian Bingmeng said.
“Exactly, I can’t understand it, I can’t understand it.” Was there something wrong with her brain? What the hell?
“Yue Shuangshuang, enter the arena.” The instructor on stage loudly shouted. Mu Ziqi looked around with a dark expression.
