"Mu-Han-Yan!!!" Miss Zhao Si's furious voice soared into the sky, shocking everyone on the street. Her face was extremely ferocious. She wanted to kill Mu Han-Yan right now, to chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs.
Unfortunately, this cannot be done. At least not now.
"Hey? Miss Zhao Si, you need to be more careful about your gentle and delicate image. You have been pretending to be a virtuous woman for so long, don't let your efforts go to waste at this moment." Mu Hanyan hurriedly reminded her with a kind look.
Miss Zhao Si's ferocious expression suddenly froze. There were still quite a few people on the street. She couldn't ruin the image she had worked so hard to cultivate. She absolutely couldn't ruin it. Miss Zhao Si frantically thought of a plan to salvage it.
Mu Hanyan ignored the petrified Miss Zhao Si and walked away with her graceful demeanor. As she walked further away, she could hear Miss Zhao Si's heartbroken sobs. Oh my god, this woman is really a tough one. Look at her, she's already trying to save her image so quickly. I wonder how many people fell for her trick.
It doesn't matter, there's still a long way to go. I collected some interest today, and also exposed the Zhou family's hidden power. Overall, I made a profit today!
…
Mu Hanyan and Zirong returned to the City Lord's Mansion and waited for more than an hour, but Huayue still didn't come back.
"Nothing will happen to him, right?" Zirong asked worriedly as the sky grew darker.
"Probably not," Mu Hanyan said. She still had confidence in Hua Yue's abilities. Even without the recent strength gains, with his exceptional talent, he shouldn't have any trouble holding back Miss Zhao Si's guards.
Unless he wants to fight to the death with the other party, the outcome is hard to predict.
Thinking of this, Mu Hanyan felt a little worried.
Zirong was very sensitive and noticed the worry in her eyes, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Yue appeared at the gate of the yard.
His body was covered in blood, and wounds of varying depths were visible under his torn clothes. His steps were slightly staggering, but his back was still as straight as a gun.
"Why did it take so long?" Mu Hanyan asked with a frown.
"On a whim, I chatted with him for a while longer." Hua Yue said, his words a little playfully. This was what Mu Hanyan taught him, but his expression was still calm and composed, which felt a little weird.
"Don't try so hard next time." Mu Hanyan frowned and said.
"Yes, I'll go heal my wounds first." Hua Yue replied indifferently, turned around and was about to leave.
"Remember one thing, I chose you because I hope that one day in the future you can become my trustworthy partners, not to send you to die meaninglessly." Mu Hanyan said again.
Huayue paused slightly and continued to move forward.
Mu Hanyan didn't notice that a faint smile appeared on his expressionless face.
Zirong raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression unchanged, and said to Mu Hanyan, "I'll go see him."
"Well, have a good rest today, no need to come over. Take a look at his injuries, if they are serious, let him rest for a few days." Mu Hanyan reminded.
"Yes." Zirong agreed and turned to go to where he and Huayue lived.
Zirong and Huayue are different from other ordinary guards in the City Lord's Mansion. They have separate residences next to Mu Hanyan's courtyard.
