Huayue and Zirong are both affectionate and righteous people. Huayue came to the City Lord's Mansion to take care of his elderly and sick grandmother. Zirong's situation is more complicated. He has a fiancée who was betrothed to him since childhood, but this fiancée later fell seriously ill and needed green bamboo vines as a medicine. And this was needed every year. The fiancée's family was not rich to begin with. They spent a lot of money on her treatment. Later, they could not bear it anymore, so they asked Zirong to take care of her for a while because they had to go out to do something. As a result, he never came back, and the whole family moved away, completely abandoning Zirong's little fiancée. From then on, Zirong never left and did her best to take care of her little fiancée.
Both of them later became famous, but in her previous life, whether at the beginning or later, she had never had any intersection with them.
In this life, she wants these two people to work for her!
She didn't want to let Miss Zhao Si's scheme go so easily. Nor did she want her brother Han Feng or her mother to intervene for her. She wanted to resolve this matter on her own. In her previous life, she had been too soft-hearted, more or less considering Miss Zhao Si's innocence, which ultimately caused trouble for her father. In this life... Mu Hanyan's eyes were cold. She was no longer the foolish, overly kind-hearted dandy. If Miss Zhao Si wanted to use her innocence to scheme against her, it proved that this woman didn't care about innocence at all. So why should she worry about her innocence for others?
Mu Hanyan sneered softly. She had already died once, lost so much, and now she was alive again, reborn from the ashes. She was no longer as ignorant as she was in her previous life, and she would no longer allow herself to be bullied and schemed against like she had at the beginning of her previous life! In this life, whoever dared to bully or insult her, well—just wait, she would let them enjoy her "reward". At this moment, Mu Hanyan's eyes were like a thousand-year-old ice, captivating.
Yue Fanling quickly summoned all the guards from the City Lord's Mansion. Although Mu Ruian was very cold towards Mu Hanyan, he and Yue Fanling were very affectionate and would respond to Yue Fanling's every request. Yue Fanling's own strength and intelligence were also superior, and she was well-known in the city. She was not the kind of idiot who relied on men for survival. In other words, if Mu Ruian was not around, Yue Fanling could easily issue orders on behalf of the City Lord. Therefore, it was not surprising that Yue Fanling was able to summon the entire City Lord's Mansion guards so quickly.
"Hanyan, choose a few of your own to serve as your personal guards," Yue Fanling said happily as she entered the room. Mu Hanyan had always stubbornly followed Mu Hanfeng's lead, doing everything herself. She'd sometimes been caught unawares by the consequences of her lack of skills. Now that Hanyan had finally come to her senses and decided to bring guards, Yue Fanling was naturally delighted. However, she doubted Mu Hanyan's judgment was good, so she planned to wait until Hanyan made her own selection before choosing a few more reliable and capable ones.
Mu Hanyan stood up and followed Yue Fanling slowly into the yard. Looking at the dozens of people standing in the yard, Mu Hanyan knew in her heart that although the people here appeared to be respectful to her, many actually looked down on her.
She smiled inwardly. Yes, during that period of her past life, she had truly been a dandy, willful, impulsive, and easily angered. She always felt that having a father who was the city lord gave her the right to walk all over the city. Although she hadn't done anything evil, she was still unwelcome. Of course, not many of these guards liked her either, but since her father was the city lord, they didn't dare to voice their objections.
