There was dead silence next door.
Mu Hanyan understood the feelings of Princess Jinhua next door: "Big brother, I can't respond to what you're saying." Hahahaha, Mu Hanyan laughed inwardly. Feeling relieved, Mu Hanyan's attitude towards Ye Lanxun naturally improved. She began to diligently serve Ye Lanxun food. Soon, Ye Lanxun's bowl was piled high. Ye Lanxun looked at Mu Hanyan's charming smile and began to serve her food as well. The two of them picked up food without paying attention to anyone else.
Zirong and the others looked at each other, their emotions mixed. Jiang Yuzhe bit his chopsticks, looking at the table full of food with a sad look on his face. When would the little tigress pick up some food for him? Humph, I curse these two who are showing off their affection until they eat bugs while eating.
Ye Lanxuan didn't care about the mood or movement of the person next door. He and Mu Hanyan smiled at each other and continued to eat.
There was no movement next door until Mu Hanyan and the others finished eating and walked out of the box, but no one came out of the box next door.
"Hey?" Mu Hanyan was a little puzzled. Princess Jinhua was so strong-willed and thick-skinned that she wouldn't give up so easily. Or was it that Ye Lanxuan had truly hurt her tonight and she needed to recover for a while?
Forget it, it’s none of her business anyway, it’s better if she doesn’t come out, otherwise she will have to say hello hypocritically.
On the way back, Mu Hanyan felt the gossipy gazes of the three lackeys behind her were about to burn through her. However, because of Ye Lanxun's presence, they didn't dare to approach her.
After returning to the courtyard, Ye Lanxun and Mu Hanyan said goodnight and returned to their rooms. The three lackeys hadn't returned yet, staring intently at Mu Hanyan. Mu Hanyan looked at them and wondered, "What's there to understand? Aren't these little bastards just gossiping about who the woman in the next private room at Tianyin Tower was?"
"Okay, go to bed. Eat your fill today and work hard for me tomorrow!" Mu Hanyan waved her hand unhappily and chased the three people away like flies.
"Young Master, can you bear it?" Zirong looked at Mu Hanyan eagerly.
"How can you be so cruel?" Mu Hanyan asked deliberately, looking at Zirong's stupid look.
"How can you bear to see the three of us unable to sleep tonight and not have the energy to work tomorrow?" Zirong said aggrievedly.
"The woman just now is the current Princess Jinhua, okay?" Mu Hanyan said and then saw three pairs of eyes filled with horror and admiration.
Wait, I can understand the horror, but what does this admiration mean?
Mu Hanyan glared at the three of them: "What are you looking at?"
"Young Master, I think the most humiliating thing in Princess Jinhua's life is that she lost to a man in a matter of love." Zirong said in a mean way.
"That's right, I didn't expect our young master to be so charming. Young Master Ye is such a powerful man, but he would rather choose you as a man than Princess Jinhua as a woman." Jiang Yuzhe also sighed.
"Young Master, you must continue to persevere and not lose to the princess." Hua Yue also looked serious.
"We have finally broken through the secular concepts and support you and Young Master Ye. You must not lose to a woman." Zirong clenched his fist and said very seriously.
"Yes, sir, we have high hopes for you." Jiang Yuzhe nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Get out of here--!!!" Mu Hanyan had several black lines on the back of her head. She kicked out, kicking these unreasonable lackeys away, and then went back to the house to rest.
Mu Hanyan slept very soundly that night.
Some people have trouble sleeping, such as Princess Jinhua.
"Asshole! Asshole!" Princess Jinhua threw everything she could reach onto the floor in her chambers, leaving tea utensils and rouge scattered across the floor, creating a utter mess. The maids all lowered their heads, huddled in corners, not daring to speak a word. No one dared to dissuade Princess Jinhua from taking such a risk. One can only imagine how the proud Princess felt at being humiliated by her beloved.
Princess Jinhua finally finished throwing everything she could, and sat down, breathless. Her mood worsened as she looked at the mess on the floor. The image of Ye Lanxun's cold, handsome face surfaced in her mind. Her heart, at that moment, ached. Why, why did you treat her like this? Ye Lanxun, Ye Lanxun, do you know that I only have you in my heart, and there's no room for anyone else? Why would you rather smile at that dandy than even glance at me?
After a long while, Princess Jinhua finally calmed down, but she made up her mind again. She would never give up. One day, Ye Lanxuan would definitely look back and see her.
…
After a dreamless night, Mu Hanyan woke up in the morning, refreshed and ready to start her day's work. Her three lackeys worked tirelessly under her orders, demanding she bring them a delicious snack or else go on strike. This only provoked a beating from Mu Hanyan before she took them out to eat.
In the next few days, the originally quiet courtyard was filled with the crisp sound of metal tinkling from morning to night.
"What is Mu Hanyan doing? She's been ringing the bells for a few days now."
"Don't you know? He brought back a sword-making furnace a few days ago, along with several carts of charcoal. He said he wanted to make swords."
"Uh... sword forging, he can forge swords?"
"Who knows? I think it's just a mess. I took a peek at the things he made. The swords didn't look like swords, the knives didn't look like knives, the axes didn't look like axes, and the sickles didn't look like sickles. None of them looked good."
"Alas, I've heard that the playboy Mu is unlearned and spends all day messing around with all sorts of things. I didn't quite believe it at first, but today I know they were right. A young master from an aristocratic family wouldn't do anything but learn sword-making! Is that what we aristocratic family's children are supposed to do?"
"Forget it, forget it, keep your voice down. Have you forgotten what happened to Mu Chengyang a few days ago? If he wants to make trouble, then let him do it. Even the head of the family didn't say anything. It's not our turn to meddle in his affairs."
The news that the eldest playboy Mu had the urge to learn sword-making spread quickly throughout the Mu Mansion. The servants did not dare to say anything but just covered their mouths and laughed secretly. However, the elders of each family were different. When talking about this matter, they shook their heads secretly and treated it as a complete joke.
"What? You're saying Mu Hanyan is bored and learning sword-making?" Mu Chengyang's eyes widened upon hearing this news. The Third Elder's room was far away from Mu Hanyan's courtyard, so he didn't hear anything.
"Yes, it's simply a fantasy. All the swordsmiths in our Holy Court Continent have been taught by their masters or passed down from generation to generation by their ancestors. All of them have learned swordsmithing since elementary school. He actually wants to learn swordsmithing. Isn't he afraid of being laughed at?" said a horse-faced guard with a grin.
"Did he forge anything?" Mu Chengyang asked.
"A bunch of junk that doesn't look like a knife or a sword. None of them is decent." The horse-faced guard said disdainfully.
