Chapter 4: Retreating the Sword

"Young Master." Ren San walked in and said respectfully.

"You're here. Since you're here, come out for a walk with me." Mu Chen glanced at Ren San and said lightly.

"Yes, young master." Ren San responded decisively.

Mu Chen looked at Ren San for a few times. Ren San was not good-looking and was a bit dull, but he was obedient enough and his strength was also quite good.

Qi Si saw Mu Chen and Ren San coming out and immediately went to greet them. When Mu Chen saw Qi Si, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"Young Master, where are you going?" Qi Si caught up and asked.

"What? Do I have to report to you where I go?" Mu Chen said impatiently.

Qi Si's expression changed and he said, "I'm just worried about your safety, young master."

Mu Chen looked at Qi Si and said, "You're worried about my safety. If I were to be in danger, what could you do to help me?"

According to the original owner's memory, whenever the original owner fought with others, Qi Si would always feint a few moves and then hide aside to watch the fun. It was thanks to the original owner's strong brain nerves that he never noticed it.

Ren San glanced at Qi Si indifferently and followed Mu Chen out.

Several servants saw this scene and looked at Qi Si with some mockery, some pity, and some gloating.

Ren San looked at Mu Chen and said, "Master, where are we going?"

"Go to the Hu family's weapons shop and return this sword." Mu Chen said.

Ren San looked at Mu Chen and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, "Refund? This is not like your style, young master!"

Mu Chen smiled indifferently and said, "Are they all poor?" People with poor backgrounds have low aspirations!

"Master Mu, you are here. I wonder what you need?" The owner of Hu's Arms Shop came forward immediately when he saw Mu Chen.

Mu Chen took out the Jade Water Sword, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "I'm here to return it."

The shopkeeper's expression changed and he said, "What's the matter, Master Mu? Are you dissatisfied with this sword?"

Mu Chen smiled and said, "I can't give it away, so I'll just return it."

"Master Mu, you have to think carefully. The quality of this sword is one in a hundred. If you return it, 10% of the Yuanshi will be deducted. Next time you want to buy it, it will be more than the last price." The shopkeeper reminded Mu Chen.

Mu Chen smiled and said, "Let's return it. I thought this sword was good before, but now, for some reason, it doesn't look right to me."

The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay then."

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Mu Chen?" Chen Moran walked over, fanning himself, with Zhuang Yu beside him.

Mu Chen couldn't help but squint his eyes. According to the original text, Mu Chen would be furious because Zhuang Yu returned his sword, and would fight to the death with Zhuang Yu's protector, the second-generation rich man Chen Moran. Unexpectedly, he didn't take the initiative to find these two people, but still met them.

"It's Mr. Chen!" Mu Chen said lightly.

When Zhuang Yu saw Mu Chen, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he hid behind Chen Moran.

When Mu Chen saw the look that flashed across Zhuang Yu's eyes, a hint of a sneer rose in his heart.

On the one hand, Zhuang Yu enjoyed Mu Chen's devotion to him, but on the other hand, he hated Mu Chen, a good-for-nothing second-generation rich kid who acted like a whore and still wanted to be a virtuous woman.

When Zhuang Yu saw Mu Chen's eyes move away from him, a strange feeling surged in his heart.

"Mr. Mu, what are you doing here? You want to buy a sword again? That's not right! I heard that you are short of money recently. Can you still afford a sword?" Chen Moran said with some contempt.

"No, Mr. Mu is here to withdraw his sword." said the shopkeeper.

Chen Moran chuckled, "No way, Mr. Mu, you're so poor that you're going to sell everything you have."

"Yes! I'm already so poor, Mr. Chen, do you want to help me?" Mu Chen said lightly.
