Skretil's Ignorance Walker

"Please don't talk yet and let me talk alone, okay?"

Seeing that Mudan was about to have a myocardial infarction, Lu Ren quickly covered Mia's mouth. He couldn't let this misunderstanding continue to get worse.

"Peony, please believe me, I definitely didn't do anything out of line to Sunflower. This was all done by that damn elf Alia."

Just as Lu Ren was racking his brains to explain everything to Mudan, Vera poked her head out from the sofa. She just stared at Lu Ren quietly like a ghost.

"But didn't she faint? And aren't you stronger than her, sister?"

Hearing this, Lu Ren was immediately furious. She gritted her teeth and said:

"It's all that damn quack's fault! He let me let my guard down."

Lu Ren was very scared when he thought about how he was actually knocked unconscious by Alia, but fortunately Alia did not take this opportunity to harm Lu Ren, perhaps because she was also very weak.

"Anyway, you must believe me. Nothing happened between Sunflower and me. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Sunflower."

Seeing the disbelieving eyes and expressions of the people present, Lu Ren had no choice but to ask Sunflower to testify for him. However, Lu Ren discovered that Sunflower and Fafuwei were not present.

"Yeah? Where's the Sunflower Man?"

Just when Lu Ren was puzzled, Mudan suddenly stood up with a gloomy face.

"That... Peony?"

"Don't say any more. I'll go ask Himawari myself."

Mudan did not stay long. She went upstairs alone. Looking at her lonely and swaying back, one could not help but worry that she might fall down suddenly.

After reaching the second floor, Mudan saw Favvie and Sunflower standing in the corridor and talking.

"Sunflower, come here for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Sunflower, who was talking to Favvie, was startled when her sister called her like that. She looked at Peony, whose face was filled with gloom, and hurriedly said goodbye to Favvie, then went into her room with Peony.

"elder sister……"

After closing the door, Sunflower looked at Peony weakly. She didn't know how Peony would view this misunderstanding.

"sunflower……"

Peony also looked at the sunflower, her eyes revealing some sadness, and then she hugged the sunflower as if she wanted to say goodbye to it.

"Sister...what are you doing..."

Even Sunflower was a little surprised as to why Peony suddenly behaved like this. She had thought that Peony might be sad or question her, but she had never expected it to be like this.

"She really didn't do anything to you?"

At this time, Peony asked the key question. After hearing this question, Sunflower hesitated for two seconds before answering:

"Well, it should be that Alia knocked me and Master Lu Ren unconscious last night, and then took the opportunity to escape. When we woke up this morning, both of our clothes were intact."

"Yeah……"

Hearing this answer, Mudan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she immediately changed the subject.

"Then... Sunflower, what do you think of Lord Lu Ren? Do you like her?"

"Eh?! Why are you suddenly saying this..."

When asked this, Sunflower was a little panicked. She didn’t understand why Mudan asked this. Did Lu Ren say something to Mudan?

"Sunflower, calm down and listen to me, okay?"

Only then did Peony let go of Sunflower. She placed her hands on Sunflower's shoulders and said to her earnestly:

"You know, we are living together now, and life is not easy. And Lady Lu Ren is a powerful A-rank adventurer, and she is also a very kind person. If you can stay with her, you will definitely live a good life, at least you don't have to worry about survival anymore."

"..."

Sunflower couldn't believe that these words came out of Peony's mouth. She stood there for a few seconds before she came to her senses.

"But...she already has so many partners, she doesn't like me at all, and...I don't want to leave you, sister. Didn't we agree to live together from now on?"

"Silly boy……"

Mudan smiled bitterly and shook her head. After seeing Sunflower and Lu Ren sleeping together today, she was indeed a little overwhelmed. But now that she has calmed down, Mudan feels that this is a good opportunity.

"You know, Lady Lu Ren is very kind and a good person. As long as you use today's incident to threaten her, she will most likely accept you. As for me, one day, you and I will both start our own families, and we will definitely separate by then, so don't worry about me too much. As long as you can be happy, that's all."

"do not want!"

Sunflower felt very surprised when she heard Mudan's words. She almost yelled at Mudan subconsciously. She had never thought that her usually gentle and considerate sister would say such a thing, asking her to depend on others for survival, even if the object was Lu Ren. Sunflower didn't want to live this kind of life. Living on the charity of others, even if she was rich, what was the point?

"Silly child, don't lose your temper. Think about it carefully. Is there any better opportunity than this?"

After being yelled at by Sunflower for the first time, Mudan seemed a little sad, but she did not stop thinking about it. If Sunflower could really live with Lu Ren, it would definitely be much better than suffering with her now.

"I don't want to... do this... it's too despicable..."

After hearing what Peony said, Sunflower choked up and her tears kept flowing from her eyes. She had never thought that Peony would think like this and say such words.

"What...what do you know?! As long as I can live a beautiful and happy life, what does this matter?!"

After hearing the word "lowly", Mudan also lost her guard. She grabbed Sunflower's shoulders tightly and yelled at her. She just wanted Sunflower to live a good life, but why didn't Sunflower understand her good intentions?

"Woooo..."

This time Sunflower did not continue to argue with Peony. She broke free from Peony's hands and ran out without looking back.

"sunflower!"

Seeing Sunflower running away, Peony wanted to call her to stop her, but how could Sunflower hear what Peony said at this time?

Seeing that she couldn't stop Sunflower, Mudan hurriedly chased after her, but as soon as she went out, she ran into Favvie who was in the corridor.

"Yeah...are you okay?"

After being knocked down, Favvie stood up first, then reached out her hand to help Mudan up, but Mudan was only thinking about Sunflower now. She collapsed on the ground and watched Sunflower run out of the house.

"sunflower……"

After seeing Sunflower run away, Peony sat there in a daze, without moving for a long time, which made Favre very worried.

"Um... Peony, how about you get up first, and we can talk about what happened slowly, okay?"

Looking at Mudan's grief-stricken expression, Favvie didn't know what had happened. She just wanted to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two people in the room in the corridor, but heard nothing.
