In the small yard behind him, Qu Shanling gazed long at the departing figure of Mu Hanyan, his face old and weary with an added trace of guilt.
"Young Master, I really didn’t an to harm you. Only you could possibly unravel my deathly tribulation, but calculations suggest it might even bring you a life-and-death ordeal. I don’t want to harm you, but I don’t want to die, I really don’t. You’re so powerful; you must be able to solve it, to withstand it. I can’t, I would just drop dead. Young Master, after you survive this tribulation, I’ll definitely treat you to lots of pork legs, so many!
Ah, ’Divine Martial descends, heaven and earth traverse,’ what does that even an?" Qu Shanling murmured to himself, his fingers twisting in his hair, apparently finding a few more white strands.
After bidding farewell to Mu Nan and the others, and leaving Hua Yuezi behind at the Chamber of Comrce to help out, Mu Hanyan returned to the Mu Residence alone, filled with doubts.
"Brother Han Yan, Brother Han Yan." As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Mu Yuying hurrying to et him.
"What’s the matter, Yuying?" Mu Hanyan temporarily set aside his concerns and asked Mu Yuying with a smile.
"Brother Han Yan, can you please send Jiang Yuzhe away?" Mu Yuying looked at Mu Hanyan with a pitiful expression. Jiang Yuzhe had followed her under the guise of a follower and was now shalessly lingering around in the City Lord’s Mansion.
"Did he act inappropriately toward you?" Mu Hanyan asked in jest.
Then she rembered that in addition to her two personal guards, gold dal thugs, and supre henchn, she had acquired yet another follower. But since he was accommodated in the Mu Residence upon their return, she hadn’t seen so much as his shadow.
Had it not been for Mu Yuying’s remark, she would have nearly forgotten about the guy.
"Not at all, don’t talk nonsense, Brother Han Yan. It’s just that guy always following around, appearing and disappearing out of nowhere, popping up now and then to give a fright - he’s driving absolutely crazy," Mu Yuying said with a blush and an air of vexation.
"Oh, that’s no big deal then," Mu Hanyan said nonchalantly.
If she had not misrembered, in the days to co, due to her involvent, the entire Mu Family of Heishi City would suffer a great calamity. Mu Yuying, who had been training abroad, rushed back to her family upon hearing the news and t with misfortune as well.
Towards them, Mu Hanyan had always felt guilty. In this lifeti, she was determined not to let that calamity befall them again. Her taking in Jiang Yuzhe was mainly with this in mind.
So, if possible, she wouldn’t mind Jiang Yuzhe and Mu Yuying getting together, provided of course that they both felt the sa way about each other. At present, Jiang Yuzhe seed genuinely fond of Mu Yuying and didn’t act too improperly. Since Mu Yuying didn’t truly despise Jiang Yuzhe, she didn’t bother to interfere.
"Who says it’s no big deal? You have no idea how annoying that guy is," Mu Yuying responded with increasing urgency, seeing Mu Hanyan’s indifferent deanor.
"Well then, if he ever does do sothing excessive, co tell , and I’ll deal with him appropriately," Mu Hanyan said.
"Alright then," replied Mu Yuying, seeing her firm attitude and speaking helplessly.
"Alright, I’m going back to cultivate now. Co find if you need anything," Mu Hanyan said, waving her hand.
"Yuying, what a coincidence eting you here again, it’s fate," just then, a cheerful voice sounded, and the figure of Jiang Yuzhe materialized in front of them.
"Ah!" Mu Yuying exclaid in shock.
Mu Hanyan was startled too. This sudden appearance was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight. Had her composure not been so resilient, Mu Hanyan would have almost thrown a punch. What kind of ’fate’ was this, anyway? This peculiar pursuit strategy must surely be exclusive to Jiang Yuzhe.
