Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C39
As he brought Liang Jingfeng out of the mirror tower, Mu Yizi didn’t say a word to anyone along the way.
If she had been chattering and asking Liang Jingfeng why he had come to such a place, it would have been fine, but the silence made people feel even more uneasy.
From start to finish, Liang Jingfeng had lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong.
In addition, her almond eyes were red, causing people to feel heartache. They couldn’t bear to blame her any further.
After sending Liang Jingfeng to the entrance of the Liang Household, Mu Yiran turned around and said to her, “Go in! Don’t make your brother wait. In the future, don’t go to that kind of place anymore. If you lack money, you can come to the Mu Army’s Residence to look for me. “Also, remember not to bet anymore in the future.”
After she finished speaking, Mu Yiran turned around and left with Shen Bai and Tang Jingyu. She didn’t even spare a glance at Liang Jingfeng.
Liang Jingfeng watched the three of them leave. There was not a single trace of gratitude in his eyes. Instead, his eyes were filled with hatred.
Why was she able to reappear in her life as if she were on top of everything else, and to point fingers whenever she did so?
His fingernails dug into his palm, and his clenched fist dripped blood onto the ground, splattering the hem of his skirt with bits of red plum.
After returning home, Mu Yiran quickly called for Scoundrel, asking him to send a few of his brothers to find out what Mo Xuan did with his “good deeds”.
He hurriedly led his brothers out, but after going out for half a day, he couldn’t find anything.
The only clue he had was that the commoners were already used to Mo Xuan’s evil deeds, and they didn’t dare to talk about it because of his uncle, Ji Wei.
Because of this, Mo Xuan hadn’t been discovered by the emperor even after doing such a terrible thing for so long.
And it was precisely because Ji Wei had the Prime Minister behind him that Mo Xuan felt that not only did he have Ji Wei as his uncle’s backer, he even had the Prime Minister as his backer.
When Mu Yizi heard his report, she gave a cold snort of disdain.
It really was as she had guessed. Ji Wei’s collusion with the Prime Minister had already reached a point where everyone was aware of it.
In addition to the Prime Minister’s position in the court, even the officials following him would not be willing to risk their lives for him.
No wonder His Majesty told her that if she wanted to take down Ji Wei, she needed to gather enough evidence.
As for the matter regarding Liang Jingfeng, it was not enough as a reason to find trouble with Ji Wei.
After all, Liang Jingfeng had voluntarily displayed his name on the tower, so no one had forced her to do so.
Zhou Yu beat up Huang Ji, one was willing to take the hit while the other was willing to take it. What could others say when they were willing to do something?
However, Ji Wei usually did things in the imperial court that was nearly watertight. If Ji Hao really wanted to find out who he was, he would have to rely on this impudent nephew of his.
Mu Yurou’s eyes turned and she immediately came up with a plan. He called Mudskin over and whispered into his ear.
“Boss, can you do that?” Luotuo Zi asked hesitantly.
With a frown on his face, Mu Zhizi was not impatient at all. You don’t care if it works, just do it. If something happens, I’ll have to bear the burden! ”
“Ai!” “Alright!” The scum immediately ran out and disappeared without a trace.
She was sitting on a chair in the front hall and drinking tea without any hurry.
Shen Bai walked in from outside with an exquisite plate of snacks in his hand and placed it on the table beside Mu Youzi.
Mu Yizi did not suspect anything as she picked up a piece and began to eat.
He discovered that the dessert was crisp and refreshing, yet it didn’t feel greasy at all. It was extremely tasty.
Only then did he look at the person who came over and realize that it was a snack sent by Shen Bai.
He quickly sat up straight and properly. When he felt the gaze on the corner of his mouth, he hurriedly wiped it off with his sleeve.
“Have you thought of a way to deal with Mo Xuan?”
Shen Bai lifted the hem of his robe and sat down on an armchair at the side. His movements were smooth and carried a hint of elegance, looking very pleasing to the eyes.
“Reporting to Martial Uncle, I’ve thought of it.”
He didn’t care what kind of plan she came up with. Instead, he cared a lot about that ‘Uncle-Master’.
“Do you have to call me Martial Uncle?” Her beautiful eyebrows creased slightly, matching with her devilish face. It made people want to go up and take an iron and iron that river to flatten it.
Mu Yizi restrained her impulse to step forward and clenched her hands. “What do you want me to call you, Master?”
“You can call me Shen Bai as you used to.” Shen Bai secretly pushed on his sleeve, seeming to be enduring something.
“That doesn’t make sense.” Mu Yurou lowered her head slightly, feeling wronged. Why did he bring it up again? She felt much better. Why did she mention it?
Seeing her current state, Shen Bai was finally unable to hold himself back.
He suddenly stood up and moved towards Mu Yizi with his long legs. He cupped her small face in his hands and leaned forward to kiss her.
Perhaps it was because his movements were too fast, or perhaps it was because his martial arts were too high.
Before Mu Yizi could react, her lips had already been covered.
An icy cold sensation with the fragrance of herbs entered his mouth. The tip of his nose was filled with the smell of that person’s body, which somehow made him feel at ease.
After an unknown period of time, only when Mu Yizi found it difficult to breathe did Shen Bai reluctantly leave her lips.
Shen Bai couldn’t help swallowing his saliva as he looked at her red lips that were ravaged by him. He looked at her watery eyes seriously and said, “You are not allowed to call me martial uncle in the future.”
Mu Yiran stared blankly at his lips as she opened and closed, but she didn’t pay any attention to what he was saying.
Shen Bai was waiting for her reaction after he finished his sentence, only to discover that this little girl was staring at him in a daze.
He thought that she was once again bewitched by his beauty and felt a sense of pride in her heart.
However, she was a bit annoyed that she was still lost in thought at this moment. She couldn’t help but raise her hand and scratch the tip of her small nose.
“Remember?”
Mu Yizi instinctively replied, “Ah? “What?”
Shen Bai sighed and said helplessly, “In the future, you are not allowed to call me Martial Uncle.”
At this moment, Mu Yizi no longer had her wits from before. She could only listen to Shen Bai and blankly nod her head.
Seeing her reaction, Shen Bai was extremely satisfied. He also touched her face before leaving with a smile.
Only after the person in front of him had left for quite a while did Mu Yizi regain her senses. Just now, he had been bewitched by that monster again!
He couldn’t help but think back to that kiss, when Mu Yiran had accidentally touched his lips.
The smell of him still lingered at the tip of her nose, making her blush.
What was he thinking about? He had been bewitched by a kiss. No, it couldn’t be. There must have been too many things going on recently. He felt uneasy! She was going to take a few horse steps to calm down.
