Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C24
Even though he was immersed in the fine wine and delicious food, Mu Yurou still noticed Shen Bai’s actions. He could not help but ask in a low voice, “What happened? Are you not feeling well? ”
Upon hearing her words, Shen Bai’s heart warmed.
“It’s fine. It’s just that I was reading too late and I didn’t get a good rest yesterday.” Shen Bai knew in his heart that Mu Youzi wanted to take this opportunity to find out what happened to Lu Jingyin. How could he ruin her plans?
“Yes.” Although she said that, in Mu Yizi’s heart, she was already planning on leaving.
It was a pity that the heavens were not fulfilling his wish. At this time, Lu Hanyin began to reorganize his thoughts.
“Brother Shen by General Mu’s side has great talent. He is indeed a rare talent! I wonder if Brother Shen has any intention of joining the imperial court as an official? I happen to have some connections, I can recommend you, Brother Shen. ”
He walked over silently with a cup in his hand, whispering between the two of them.
Although he wanted to introduce Shen Baijin as an official, he chose to speak between the two of them. It was obvious that he wanted Mu Yurou to hear about it, but she didn’t know what Lu Jingyin’s motive was.
Shen Bai glanced at Mu Yizi, who had a strange expression on her face, and pursed his lips into a smile without saying anything.
“What is it? Brother Shen is unwilling? ” Lu Jingyin raised his brows, standing behind the two of them with a wine glass in his hand, seemingly a little unwilling.
Shen Bai turned his head to look at the person beside him, his face filled with deep emotion. For me, there are people who don’t want to trade for a thousand taels of gold. What’s more, just a mere official position? ”
Mu Yizi’s face turned red from his stare. It was unknown if it was because she was drunk or because her words warmed her heart.
Lu Shuiyin glanced at Mu Yizi beside him, then looked at Shen Bai. He smiled and said: “If that’s the case, then I won’t force you.”
With that, Lu Jingyin turned and left. Before leaving, he reminded Yun Che, “However, if Brother Shen changes his mind, you can come to the Tide Sound Pavilion to find me at any time. I am ready at any time! ”
After Lu Qianyin left, Mu Yiran turned her head to look into Shen Bai’s eyes and asked in an extremely serious tone, “Shen Bai, do you know who I am?”
Hearing her question, Shen Bai was stunned, he did not know why she would suddenly ask such a question.
“Do I have to know?”
With a slight frown, it formed a simple square character. Even so, it did not affect that person’s elegance. In her heart, Mu Yiran sighed: “Alas, the heavens are kind to me. Even my frown looks so nice.”
“If you don’t know who I am, then don’t say anything that would make others misunderstand. In my eyes, emotions have never been child’s play. ”
It was with great difficulty that Mu Yizi mustered the courage to speak to Shen Bai about this.
She was afraid that one day, she would really be seduced by Shen Bai’s deep emotions again and again. However, if she were to fall into his seduction, if he were to say that he was joking around and leave, what would happen to her?
Shen Bai stared at her, his mind full of thoughts.
After an unknown period of time, Shen Bai moved his lips, hesitated for a moment and said: “In my eyes, there is never any such thing as child’s play. It doesn’t matter who you are. “Millions of beauties, I only wish you’d be by yourself.”
It was as if in that instant, only the two of them existed in this world. No matter how noisy the environment was, they could only look at each other.
“Forget it, I’m tired. “Go back!”
Mu Yizi felt her nose turn sour, and quickly turned her head, hoping to hide. Since she didn’t know where Lu Jingyin had gone, she could only tell her that she had to leave early if she told him that she wasn’t feeling well.
Seeing this, Shen Bai could only leave as well. He knew that the little girl had a lot of things hidden in her heart. He did not beg her to tell him everything right now. But he believed that one day she would be willing to open her heart to him.
As soon as she walked through the main entrance of the Mu Residence, Mu Youzi discovered that there was something wrong with the manor.
Logically speaking, if this was a normal situation, the scum would have already come over to welcome him upon seeing his return. But now, why was it that he was nowhere to be seen today?
At the same time, he noticed that something was wrong. He looked at Mu Yurou in tacit understanding before walking into the courtyard with light footsteps.
Only now did he realize that in the backyard, a Mudskin was being stepped on by a vaguely familiar old man, and was currently wailing in pain.
“Master!”
Upon seeing the elder, Shen Bai hastened his footsteps and walked over. He stood by the side of the old man with his head lowered in silence.
The old man coldly snorted as he glanced at him, and said with a strange tone, “I thought you had forgotten the important matter!”
Mu Yizi unhurriedly ignored the old man and Shen Bai, returning to her room to retrieve the silver spear that was placed on a shelf.
The red tassels fluttered in the wind, but the silver tip of the spear shone with a chilling light under the sunlight.
Mu Yizi walked in front of the old man, not a shred of fear in her eyes. She raised her silver spear and pointed it at the old man, saying coldly, “Let him go!”
The old man didn’t even bat an eyelid. He only gave a snort before turning his head to scold Shen Bai.
“You stinking brat, you indulge yourself in the mundane world every day! Is that what I taught you? ”
Shen Bai didn’t refute his words. Instead, he lowered his head even more. He was like a child who had done something wrong. “Master, I’m sorry!”
Mu Yiran saw that the old man had completely ignored her, so she simply stabbed the silver spear at him.
Unexpectedly, the old man seemed to have already known what she was going to do, he slightly tilted his head and dodged it. Mu Yiran hadn’t even touched a hair of the old man before she had forcibly pierced through his hair.
With the addition of the silver spear’s inertia, Mu Youzi leaned towards the old man. Luckily, even if she adjusted the direction of the silver spear, the handle of the spear would fall down and she would be thrown backwards.
The butt of the gun flew across the ground, producing sparks.
With much difficulty, Mu Yizi managed to support her body before she quickly launched her next round of attack. She wanted to see how fast this old fellow was.
The old man stomped his foot on the ground and kicked the toad to the side.
Seeing this, Shen Bai hurriedly helped Mu Yazi up, and the two of them watched the battle between the old man and Mu Yizi.
Although it seemed as if the two were evenly matched, the old man was actually dodging Mu Yu Zi’s attack.
“Old man, why are you like your disciple, only knowing how to dodge and not know how to attack? Is it possible that what you have taught your disciple is how to become a qualified turtle to hide its head? ”
The more she couldn’t attack him, the angrier Mu Yizi became. Her hand movements also sped up again and again, but the more she panicked, the more her aim was off.
In the end, he could not bear the passage of time and his body’s energy consumption sped up. Before long, Mu Yizi’s forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
Feeling that it was about time, the elder took out a jade flute from his sleeve. Mu Yizi’s wrist, arm, shoulder, neck, and other parts of her body were knocked down.
After a few moments, Mu Yizi’s hand lost its strength and she threw the silver spear to the ground. She lost all her strength as well, but because of the stubbornness in her bones, she was still able to prop herself up and she knelt on one knee.
