He had too many enemies. If he and she were both injured, the consequences would be disastrous...

"Girl, what do you want in exchange for saving my son?"

The lord suppressed the rage in his heart and asked.

"I said, I have no obligation to save him, nor do I want to save him."

As if she didn't notice the depression in the lord's heart, Mu Ruyue's voice was neither cold nor hot, but it was like a heavy stone falling into the lord's heart...

The lord's body trembled slightly, and he closed his eyes slightly. After a long time, he opened his eyes, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Girl, if you are willing to save my son, I am willing to hand over the position of lord to you."

What about the lord's position?

If I lose this only child and cannot inherit the family line, I might as well give up this position...

Anyway, with his ability, he can be successful wherever he goes.

Hearing this, Mu Ruyue's expression finally changed.

Her eyes were deep and dark, staring intently at the lord's pale face.

"I can take the position of lord if I want it. I don't need you to hand it to me!"

Her voice was unusually firm, yet it exuded a power that made it impossible not to believe...

The lord's face was ashen. He suppressed his rage and asked word by word, "You also said that with your strength, you don't need me to give you away, but why did you bring up my son's physical condition? I think you must have some needs for doing this. As long as you are willing to save my son, then... I can agree to any request you make."

Mu Ruyue smiled, and that smile on her beautiful face was so touching...

"The Lord is indeed a smart man. I do have my own requests!"

At this point, she paused and said, "I want your lordship, but it's not given by you. I got it by my own strength. However, I won't kill you, because I still need your help with something..."

Hearing this, the lord breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she had something to ask for, he would be qualified to negotiate with her.

"Girl, tell me. I will agree to whatever you ask for."

Mu Ruyue's eyes flickered a few times, and she smiled silently: "I want you to be loyal to me!"

In fact, she had her own reasons for doing so.

She had no shortage of strong people, but if she had just taken over the Lord's Mansion, there would definitely be many people who would not accept it. More importantly, she knew nothing about the situation in the Lord's Mansion...

Therefore, she lacked someone who could manage the lord's mansion for her.

And the former lord must be the best candidate.

The lord's expression changed completely: "You want me to be your subordinate?"

"good!"

Mu Ruyue nodded: "This is the only condition for me to agree to save him. You can choose to refuse. Of course, if you refuse, he will no longer be able to carry on the family line for your Lan family."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

“Daddy!”

Hearing this, Lan Yi couldn't help but scream.

He glared at Mu Ruyue fiercely, then turned to look at the lord: "Daddy, don't listen to her. I would rather not be able to pass on the Lan family's bloodline than obey this evil woman!"

The lord did not speak, but there was a hint of deep thought between his brows.

After a long while, he looked up at Mu Ruyue and said, "You want to subdue me, aren't you afraid that I will bite you back?"

Mu Ruyue had a faint smile on her lips: "Since I dare to accept you, I am sure that I can't let you betray me?"
