Chapter 448: Freedom
"No need. Since she has decided to investigate, she should know what she is facing."
Nie Xiu is an extremely calm person. He knows that Tu Ran's situation this time is different from the last time in Building No. 7.
That time we were ambushed and the incident happened suddenly.
This time, Tu Ran took the initiative to look for clues, which shows that she was mentally prepared.
If that's the case, why should he meddle in other people's business?
"Then Dr. Tu can't be in danger, right?"
"The person behind Li Min is..." Xiao Jie didn't finish his words, but both the master and the servant obviously knew some inside information.
"It doesn't matter, let's see how she takes revenge."
Of course Nie Xiu knew that the man behind Li Min was a lunatic.
If it was the ninth inning, maybe it could be handled easily.
What’s interesting is that Tu Ran is not a member of the metaphysics circle at all.
She is just a young Chinese medicine practitioner who has not yet graduated.
And she obviously knew what she was going to face, because she and Mu Wanjun had experienced the incident with Huang Xiaoxu before, as well as the strange and bizarre incident of Old Man Sun being injured in his dream.
It's interesting that she knows everything but has to deal with that person with her bare hands.
"Miss Tu, you don't think that her three magic weapons can deal with that madman..."
Xiao Jie subconsciously has a lot of good feelings towards Tu Ran because he thinks Dr. Tu can save his master.
So I don't want Tu Ran to make any mistakes.
Tu Ran asked Mu Wanjun to get three things, and this matter has become very confidential.
No one should know except the two of them.
But Nie Xiu is different.
It was easy for him to find out what secrets of this world he wanted to know.
The three things Tu Ran bought were indeed not bad.
But he didn't think he could deal with that madman...
But it is precisely because of the unknown that it is more interesting.
"Let's just watch the show."
"Will Dr. Tu be in danger?" Xiao Jie was still worried.
"She won't. She is very smart and has a strong life." Nie Xiu said with certainty.
On the other side, a private restaurant in Xiangcheng.
Lu Zhiang and Mu Wanjun sat on the same side, facing Mu Beichuan, who was wearing a new Chinese style modified Hanfu.
He has an outstanding appearance to begin with, and his outfit today is a bit special, which makes him have an extraordinary temperament.
"Brother, why are you in Xiangcheng again?"
"Is there nothing left for you to miss in the group?"
"Hasn't the family given you any more tasks?"
"Are you free enough to travel around?"
Mu Wanjun actually has a good relationship with her eldest brother, but her eldest brother doesn't want her to associate with Tu Ran.
He even wanted to take her back to the family by force, so she didn't like her elder brother showing up at this moment.
Mu Beichuan glanced at his sister, expressionless, "Looking for you is also one of the family missions."
"Ahem, it's not like I won't go back with you."
"You know, I'm in love with...that Lu Zhiang."
"His career is in Xiangcheng, and my studies are also in Xiangcheng. I have no reason to go back." In order to appear more realistic, Mu Wanjun even awkwardly and stiffly took Lu Zhiang's arm.
Lu Zhiang looked calm and looked at the two siblings quietly.
"I've told the family about you two."
"Ah? What did my family say?" Mu Wanjun blinked her big eyes, looking curious.
"My family is asking when you will get married?"
"Will the wedding be in Xiangcheng, or back in southern Sichuan?"
"Cough cough cough..." After the eldest brother said this, Mu Wanjun burst into coughing.
"Isn't this a little too fast?" Mu Wanjun picked up the teacup in confusion to calm herself down.
Mu Beichuan simply ignored his sister and looked directly at Lu Zhiang.
"You and my sister, are you serious?"
Seeing that Lu Zhiang didn't say anything, Mu Wanjun quickly pinched him secretly, trying to get him to cooperate with her.
Lu Zhiang then said slowly, "Yes."
"You're also surprised. That's what my family meant at the beginning."
"Why didn't you just agree to it..."
"I was young at the time." Lu Zhiang lied without blushing.
"What do you think about the fact that my family wants you to get married as soon as possible?" Mu Beichuan acted like a brother-in-law and kept putting pressure on him.
"I'm fine with it. I'll listen to Wanjun."
This kid is also smart, passing the buck at the critical moment.
Mu Wanjun immediately smiled and said, "Brother, go back and tell your family first, there's no rush."
“I haven’t graduated yet.”
"How can anyone get married before graduating? That's outrageous."
"Even if we get married, we have to wait until I graduate, right?"
Mu Wanjun used her studies as an excuse, but Mu Beichuan shook his head, "You still have a year to graduate, but Grandma said that next year is not a good time to get married."
"Then maybe next year?"
"Next year is too long, I'm afraid the night will be long and full of dreams."
"What the hell, big brother, can you please stop being crazy? It's not like I can't get married, why are my family suddenly urging me to get married? It's really weird."
Mu Beichuan glanced at his sister with complicated eyes, then looked at Lu Zhiang, "My family still hopes that you two will get married as soon as possible. If you have any requirements for the dowry, you can ask for it."
After Mu Beichuan finished speaking, the three of them fell silent...
We both recalled an old story.
The reason why Lu Zhiang went to southern Sichuan and asked for help from the Mu family was that he really had something to ask for.
The condition offered by the Mu family back then was to marry the daughter of the Mu family.
Only then did I help Lu Zhiang solve the problem he raised.
But in the end, that didn't happen.
Now that several years have passed and it is brought up again, I wonder if the dowry Mu Beichuan mentioned is still what Lu Zhiang requested at the beginning. After several years, perhaps things and people have changed.
"Lu Zhiang..." Mu Wanjun was the first to break the silence. She wanted to say something.
"I don't have any requirements for a dowry, but if we get married, you have to give me some time. I need to prepare the wedding room, the wedding ceremony, and make some pre-wedding preparations."
"That's no problem." Mu Beichuan said.
"Brother, can we talk about this later? I'm so hungry, let's eat first."
Mu Wanjun didn't want to get married at all, so she didn't want to mention it at all.
I just deliberately found a different topic.
The meal was tasteless, but the dishes were good.
Perhaps deliberately to cater to the tastes of the brother and sister, Lu Zhiang ordered Sichuan cuisine.
Every dish is very spicy. Logically, Mu Wanjun should like it very much.
But she wasn't in the mood to eat...
Because she had observed her elder brother for a long time and found that he was not joking when he said about getting married.
Maybe it really is what my family meant...
During this time, both of them left the table and went to the bathroom.
It is also an opportunity for the brother and sister to talk alone.
Mu Beichuan lit a cigarette and leaned against the sink, his face still as cold as ice.
"Brother, you are serious and not joking, right?"
"Do you think I'm joking?" he asked back lightly.
"But I'm only a little old, why are my family so anxious?"
"You don't need to ask the reason, you just need to abide by the family rules." Mu Beichuan said word by word.
"But why?"
“I’ve already left for college.”
"I've left the mountains."
"Shouldn't you let me go free?" Mu Wanjun suddenly got angry.
"Freedom? Don't forget, your freedom was earned by another person with his life."
Big brother's words were like a hammer, falling from the sky and hitting Mu Wanjun's heart hard.
Her eyes turned red in an instant...but she was powerless to refute.
