The shopkeeper had tidied the room. Mu Hanyan and the others had been traveling all the way and didn't want to go out for dinner, so the shopkeeper went to the restaurant himself and ordered some food and wine. They had dinner in the small courtyard at the back, and the night breeze was quite pleasant.
"Young Master, Young Master." While I was eating, I saw the shopkeeper running over in a hurry.
"What happened? Is Mo Yanhong back again?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"He hasn't come back, but I just went out for a walk and heard that someone is asking around about your background. They are most likely from the Mo family. Otherwise, you'd better leave quickly. If they come looking for you again, it will be difficult to leave." The shopkeeper said worriedly.
Although he said that he just went out for a stroll, Mu Hanyan knew that he must be worried that Mo Yanhong would not be able to swallow this humiliation and retaliate secretly, so he went to find out the news.
Seeing the shopkeeper's worried and anxious face, Mu Hanyan felt a warmth in her heart.
"It doesn't matter, let him come if he wants." Mu Hanyan said disapprovingly.
Mo Yanhong had left earlier, frightened by Pang Dezong's flight. Once he learned her true origins and heard what Ye Lanxun had said, he would likely be deeply offended. Young men from such aristocratic families valued prestige above all else, and revenge was a sure thing. However, with her strength and the presence of Yan Yuchu, her "high-ranking lackey," she certainly wasn't afraid of him. As for Ye Lanxun, Mu Hanyan truly didn't want him to take action. If he did, everything would be gone.
More importantly, once they left, Mo Yanhong wouldn't be able to find anyone and would definitely take his anger out on the shopkeeper, but Mu Hanyan didn't want to harm him.
"But, I heard that the Mo family in Beijing is a very powerful and wealthy family. I also found out that Mo Yanhong is not only accompanied by these few people. It seems that there is another expert who was sent out by him to do some work. He is not around for the time being. If we wait for that expert to come back, it will be even more difficult to leave." The shopkeeper said with some concern.
While inquiring about Mo Yanhong's movements, he also happened to hear about Mu Hanyan's origins, and found out that he was just a natural loser who was exiled to Black Stone City by the Mu family in the capital. He had been uneducated and a playboy since childhood, and was known as the number one playboy in Black Stone.
He had seen many rumors and was grateful for Mu Hanyan's kindness. Of course, he did not believe Mu Hanyan's reputation as a playboy, but since he was not liked by the clan and was exiled to a remote town like Black Stone City, he probably thought that the reputation of being a waste was true, so he was so worried.
"Then, I can't leave even more." Mu Hanyan said firmly.
If it was just Mo Yanhong and those guards, they would probably consider the reputation of Zhengying Academy and would not make things too difficult for the shopkeeper, or at least give him a way out. However, if there were other masters of the Mo family, Mo Yanhong would be fearless and would be even more ruthless.
In this case, she couldn't leave.
After hearing Mu Hanyan's words, the shopkeeper realized that Mu Hanyan stayed for his sake.
A commoner with no skills is no different from an ant in the eyes of many high-level swordsmen. However, given Mu Hanyan's identity, she is willing to risk her life for an ant like him. For a moment, the shopkeeper was so moved that he burst into tears.
…
It is actually very easy to find out Mu Hanyan's background. As the number one playboy in Black Stone City, his reputation is quite famous.
"What, this Mu Hanyan is Mu Hanyan from Black Stone City!" After hearing the news from the guards, Mo Yanhong's eyes widened suddenly.
