Well, it seems I don't know how to be polite!!! Mu Huan smiled, but inside he wanted to punch someone. Who is this old lady? Doesn't she know that her face is wrinkled when she smiles?
Mu Huan was helpless. "Master is not here, please do as you please!" Mu Huan was so angry that he didn't even want to call the girl. He was just being polite. He still didn't know what the relationship between her and Master was, so it wouldn't be a good idea to rashly tear it apart.
But, had he always come in casually like this before? Was she really saying this, or was she just trying to piss her off?
The master had said before that she still had a lot to learn. Could it be that after she learned all that, she would become like this? She suddenly didn't want to learn anymore... Anyway, a strong intuition in her heart told her that she didn't want to become like this woman.
Mu Huan shook his head. No, he couldn't think about it anymore. The more he thought about it, the more wrong it seemed. He returned to his calligraphy practice table, ready to continue the task his master had assigned him before he left. The master had said that if he completed the task, he would get a roast chicken.
Mu Huan worked hard on her calligraphy, not caring what Xi Ling was doing. But Mu Huan ignored her, and Xi Ling wanted to come closer.
"Little disciple, the way you write this word is wrong!" Xi Ling came over and pointed at the word "Ci" that Mu Huan had just written.
Xi Ling still had a strong connection with this word. She remembered being completely captivated by this man the first time she met him. Returning to her mansion, she frantically wrote his name over and over again.
However, it was rumored that he was difficult to approach. So she didn't dare to get close to him, fearing that he would dislike her. But then, when he went out to fight against the demons, she had the opportunity to get close to him.
She had a connection with the Demon King, and had tricked him into injuring Liang Ci. She took advantage of the situation to save Liang Ci, naturally becoming his savior. Although he remained as cold as ever, he treated her better than others.
Thinking of this, Xi Ling's lips curled up into a gentle smile. No one could take Liang Ci away from her. She had put so much effort into softening his heart, so how could she let others reap the benefits?
Xi Ling glanced at Mu Huan. She was just an unknown, silly girl. Why would she compete with her? Liang Ci liked well-educated and sensible women. This little disciple didn't seem to meet Liang Ci's standards at all. So, she could rest assured!
As for why Liang Ci wanted to accept her as his apprentice, it might have just been a spur of the moment decision.
"Little disciple?" Mu Huan didn't want to talk. Who was her disciple? She was quite good at being polite. "Is she familiar with you?" Or was she taking advantage of her ignorance to pretend to be the master's confidante and the hostess of this place?
She may not know other things, but given her master's wooden personality, how could he possibly like this kind of woman?
Mu Huan pretended not to hear Xi Ling's "instructions" and continued writing. This was what her master taught her, so it had to be right! Even if it was wrong, no! She wouldn't admit it.
——
"Master!" Mu Huan's eyes lit up when she heard the footsteps. She put down her pen and ran out, throwing herself heavily into Liang Ci's arms. She wanted to be petty, because she didn't like other women coveting her master.
So, Xi Ling was initially pleasantly surprised to see Liang Ci return. But after seeing Mu Huan hug Liang Ci, her expression suddenly darkened. Is this something a master and disciple could do? An intimate hug—was it that Liang Ci didn't understand, or was he just letting it go?
"Liang, Liang Ci, you're back!" But as a god who had seen so many ups and downs, his expression quickly regained its composure.
"Why are you here?" Liang Ci frowned. It seemed that some people in the God Clan had really ignored his words recently. Was it possible that anyone could just walk in here casually?
Xi Ling's smiling expression just stood there, neither smiling nor not smiling.
"I, I just said that you just came back from the ghost tribe, so I wanted to come and see you."
"No, I don't entertain outsiders here." Liang Ci's attitude was very firm. It seemed that he could not return here in the future. He just wanted to have some peace and quiet, but he had only been back for two days and people had already broken his peace.
Xi Ling's face paled instantly, and she stumbled back. She had always known this, that he had always been cold and heartless. She should have known this long ago. She had only thought that after that incident, his attitude towards her would change. But he only cared about repaying the favor quickly; nothing else had changed.
"Well, then I'll go first!" Liang Ci didn't like women who liked to make trouble, so she had to leave now. Even if she ended up in a mess, it was better than being hated by him.
Just like that, the woman who had given Mu Huan such a headache that he didn't know what to do was actually taken away by her master with just a few words... All right! After all, the old ones are the wisest. Mu Huan secretly gave his master a thumbs up!
"Master, what delicious food did you bring back for me today?" Mu Huan looked left and right, and found that Liang Ci actually came back empty-handed! ! ! Does that mean she will go hungry today?
"Master, stop joking with me. You wouldn't come back empty-handed, would you?" Mu Huan was originally happy, but his mood suddenly became depressed.
"Roast chicken, is it more important than being your teacher? Huh?" Liang Ci raised an eyebrow. She was so excited just now, her eyes were shining when she looked at him. It turned out that she was greedy for the roast chicken he brought back! Liang Ci felt a little jealous. He was so open and sincere to her, but the only thing on his mind was roast chicken!!!
You have no conscience!
Mu Huan rubbed her head awkwardly. She wasn't looking forward to the roast chicken, but was she looking forward to the return of this wooden-faced person? It wasn't like she was mentally ill... Although she admitted that her master's face was quite good-looking, she still didn't like seeing him so stern all day long.
But how could she speak the truth so blatantly? If she said this, she would probably never have any roast chicken to eat again.
After a long thought, he finally composed himself. "How could that be? Master is so wise and powerful, he's like a god to me! I look forward to being with him every moment of every day."
After saying that, he nodded again to show his sincerity!
"Master, you are a god!" Liang Ci chuckled. This seemed to be the first time Mu Huan saw him smile. Master really had a face that would make women jealous!
"Master, as a god, you are not allowed to spoil things like this." Mu Huan curled his lips. Life without roast chicken was really too sad!
Mu Huan lowered his head, feeling a little unhappy!
Liang Ci was helpless and sighed softly. Did he find an apprentice or an ancestor?
"Do you want to eat?"
Mu Huan sniffed. What a rich aroma! Suddenly looking up, she saw her master Gaoling Zhihua holding a roast chicken wrapped in lotus leaves, which did not suit his temperament at all.
"Master, I love you so much!" Mu Huan snatched the roast chicken and held it to her nose, sniffing it with satisfaction. It was still the same old smell. She wanted to take back the disrespectful words she had just said to her master in her heart.
