Chapter 390: I am fearless

Mu Wanjun is not a person who likes to exaggerate. If she says there is trouble, it must be more serious than she says.

But Tu Ran's face remained as calm as ever.

"Tu Tu, are you listening to me?"

"Um."

"Are you scared?"

"To be honest, I don't feel scared."

Mu Wanjun stared at Tu Ran's face in surprise for a long time, and there was really no sign of fear at all.

"You don't believe this? You think what I said is mysterious."

"If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have asked you for some magic tools to ward off evil spirits, and your special glue." Tu Ran continued, "Do you think the height of the glass on my rooftop is high?"

Mu Wanjun looked in the direction of Tu Ran's finger.

"This is Tianyi Pavilion, where all the top dignitaries in Xiangcheng live."

"In this area, it's unlikely that someone would sneak in and lie on the glass to spy on me."

"This feeling of being spied on wasn't just once or twice. It was strange. Every time, I could clearly feel a pair of invisible eyes staring at me, but... as soon as I turned around, I saw nothing. At that moment, I knew this thing might not be human."

"I thought you didn't believe these things, but then I thought about it. You studied Chinese medicine, and how many of us who study Chinese medicine don't believe these things?" Mu Wanjun smiled.

"You asked me if I was afraid. I know I should be, because people are afraid of the unknown. But I don't know why I'm not afraid. Maybe... this isn't my first time encountering this. Ever since the Li Min incident, I've been practically dragged into a world I don't belong in."

"Wanjun, I'm so glad I know you."

"Otherwise, I may not be able to handle these things on my own, but I can't always rely on you, so you need to tell me some solutions, and I will figure it out myself."

"Tu Tu, if I tell you that thing can instantly break your neck and kill you and me, would you believe it?"

"I believe it." Tu Ran nodded.

"I've lived in southern Sichuan for so many years, and I've never seen a transformed monster. But I heard from my grandma that our ancestors had encountered them. Even top experts like us who can cast poison have a narrow escape from those things. So what I just said is not an exaggeration at all."

"I know."

"Are you scared now?"

Tu Ran was silent for a few seconds, then said word by word, "I am fearless."

"From the moment I was born, I knew I would die sooner or later. What's coming will come, and there's no way to avoid it. So, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"Good attitude, I want to learn from you." At this moment, Mu Wanjun probably understood that the reason why she liked her friend Tu Ran so much was probably because she was really a brave, tough, sensible, and knowledgeable girl who knew when to advance and retreat.

She is not materialistic, does not meddle in other people's affairs, is low-key and cautious, and even when facing death, she did not retreat at all.

It is rare for a girl in her early twenties to reach this level and not be a religious person.

"Don't learn from me, I'm just courting death."

"By the way, Wanjun, I want to buy something, but I don't have any connections. Can you help me?"

"what are you looking for?"

Tu Ran leaned close to Mu Wanjun's ear and whispered a few words.

"Ah? You want to buy this?"

"This is indeed a bit difficult, especially since your requirements are quite high. I'll ask someone in my family to find out."

“But the price might be a bit high.”

"The price is fine. I can accept any price."

"That's right, you are Xie Nancheng's wife, so buying a plane is just a matter of minutes." Mu Wanjun joked.

"He is him, I am me, and I don't want to get too involved financially for now."

"You still haven't thought about your future?"

"If you marry into a wealthy family, you will definitely have to have children, but you are still very young, so it's okay to have children later."

Before Tu Ran could answer, the door opened.

Xie Nancheng is back, and he came back quite early today.

"Eh? Miss Mu is here too."

Mu Wanjun nodded as a greeting.

"You came back so early today."

"Well, I have an appointment with Lao Lu to play golf today. Do you want to join us?" Xie Nancheng asked.

"No, no, I have something else to do." Mu Wanjun refused repeatedly.

"By the way, did my wife tell you that I want to introduce Lao Lu to you?"

"Cough cough cough." Mu Wanjun blushed immediately.

Tu Ran wanted to laugh when he saw it.

"Mr. Xie, could you please not be so rude and blunt? You'll scare my friend." Tu Ran glared.

The boss looked innocent, "How can that be considered rude? Is your friend made of paper? Besides, I mentioned this to you before and asked you to tell him about it."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it." Mu Wanjun quickly refused.

"Old Lu is a really nice person, much more focused than A Yao. The main reason is that he hasn't had a relationship in these years. He's been single like me. No, it's not that he hasn't had a relationship before. I think he's had one." Xie Nancheng suddenly thought of something.

Mu Wanjun's interest was immediately piqued. "When did you start dating? Was the ex also from Xiangcheng?"

"It was a long time ago, and we haven't met. But he mentioned it to us when he was drunk one time. He wasn't very clear. The girl was definitely not from Xiangcheng, she seemed to be from the south. It must be a collaboration between the two families, or something. He said something about them kissing and losing their first kiss. Later, when he sobered up, he denied it and refused to say anything even if he was beaten to death."

Mu Wanjun fell silent after hearing this...

"But there must have been no further news soon, because Lao Lu and his family went abroad, and we probably lost contact. After he returned to China, I didn't hear him go to the south to look for her."

Xie Nancheng was talking to himself, and only Tu Ran noticed the subtle change on Mu Wanjun's face.

Unable to hold back any longer, Mu Wanjun pressed on, "Has this been the only one he's dated in all these years?"

"Well, that's the one. He accidentally let it slip when he was drunk, but my brother is definitely a good person. Miss Mu, please consider it."

"No, no, thank you, goodbye."

In order to avoid talking about Lu Zhiang, Mu Wanjun almost ran away.

"Why is she leaving in such a hurry?"

"And you still say you weren't the one who scared me?" Tu Ran crossed his arms across his chest.

"Wife, you're being unfairly accused. I was just trying to be a good match..."

"You don't need to be kind, just take care of yourself first."

"Huh? What's wrong with me? I've been very well behaved recently, okay? My Third Uncle and Jin Yu wanted me to take the blame, but I didn't even give them a chance and just threw it back."

"Yes, you are the best, Mr. Xie. By the way, did you feel that someone was following you these two days?" Tu Ran suddenly thought, if the thing Mu Wanjun was talking about was not coming for the Ginseng King, could it be coming for Xie Nancheng?

"No, what's wrong? Are you being followed?" Xie Nancheng suddenly became nervous, and with his big hands, he pulled Tu Ran tightly into his arms.
