"Sect Leader Su, why have you come in person..."
Upon seeing Su Yuewan appear in the main hall, Mu Gan quickly stepped forward and bowed.
He noticed that Su Yuewan seemed to be in a pretty good mood, her beautiful face beaming with happiness, making her even more beautiful.
Bai Hao, standing to the side, seemed—no, he should be said to be clearly very unhappy. His emotions were written all over his face. He covered half of his face, his eyes were wet, and he looked resentful, like a little grieving woman.
"What's wrong with young friend Bai...?"
"He's fine, he just tripped and fell, don't worry about him," Su Yuewan said with a smile.
“Yes, I just tripped and fell, Elder Mu, don’t worry about me…” Bai Hao also said.
Since both of them had emphasized this, Mu Gan didn't press further and instead shifted the topic to the main issue:
"Then you should be more careful, young friend Bai... May I ask what brings Sect Leader Su here in person this time?"
This isn't a party; Su Yuewan's personal presence here means something important has happened, and he dares not be negligent.
"It's nothing. I just came to check on the situation with Mayor Mu," Su Yuewan said, sitting down on a chair nearby.
"Please speak." Mu Gan bowed, as the host. Su Yuewan sat down in the guest seat, while he himself stood to the side without sitting down.
“A demonic beast has indeed appeared around Bailu Town, and it’s not an ordinary one; it’s quite powerful. I will send more disciples to patrol later to ensure that the demonic beast does not threaten the people here, nor does it affect your production and work,” Su Yuewan said calmly.
"Yes, thank you, Sect Master Su." Mu Gan quickly bowed and said.
"Furthermore, now that Bailu Town is cooperating with us, I hope that in the future, if you find any other sects coming to Bailu Town, whether they are first-rate or second-rate sects, you will inform us," Su Yuewan said.
After a slight hesitation, Mu Gan said, "Does that also include... the Divine Sea Sect?"
"include."
"Well... I have a granddaughter who also returned from the Divine Sea Sect. She recently went on patrol with young friend Bai..."
Mu Gan's voice was somewhat hesitant.
Upon hearing Mu Gan mention Mu Lingxue, Su Yuewan's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she said:
"I already know this. If it's a local from Bailu Town returning from another sect, we don't need to say anything. But if it's someone unfamiliar, we should still inform us."
"Yes. If there are any unfamiliar faces, I will inform you immediately," Mu Gan replied.
"Well, that's all. If there are no further objections, I'll take my leave now."
Su Yuewan got up, and Mu Gan quickly saw the two of them out.
Before leaving, Bai Hao suddenly stopped, hesitated for a moment, and then asked Mu Gan in a low voice, "By the way, Elder Mu, Miss Mu should have returned by now, right?"
"She's back! She's back! She even told me about the monster she encountered on the mountain. Thank goodness you saved my granddaughter, young friend Bai!" Mu Gan said excitedly.
"Didn't she say I was a pervert? How come she's saying nice things about me?" Bai Hao muttered.
But now that Mu Lingxue has returned safely, everything is fine. He was worried that Mu Lingxue might not have returned and something might have happened to her on the way, which would have been troublesome.
Everything is fine now, nothing bad has happened.
"Aren't you leaving yet?"
Su Yuewan stopped a short distance away and said somewhat impatiently.
"Coming right away! Coming right away!"
Bai Haoxin dared not provoke her, so he quickly followed.
You should know that the half of his face that he's covering now is completely swollen from when Su Yuewan pulled his ear earlier!
That woman was really ruthless; she almost ripped his ear off!
Anyway, Bai Hao is a little scared now; this woman might make a move.
...
Mu family.
Mu Gan watched Bai Hao and Su Yuewan leave. When he turned around, he saw Mu Lingxue had appeared out of nowhere, half of her body hidden behind a pillar, watching Bai Hao's figure disappear.
"Xiaoxue, why are you only coming out now? Young Friend Bai and Sect Master Su arrived just now, and you didn't even come out to say hello or thank Young Friend Bai," Mu Gan said softly with a hint of reproach.
"Hmph, I'm not going to thank him!"
Thinking of how Bai Hao had hugged her like that earlier, Mu Lingxue felt ashamed and indignant. She snorted coldly and turned around to go back.
Seeing her like this, Mu Gan sighed softly and shook his head...
...
On the way back to Luohai Sect.
Bai Hao followed quietly behind Su Yuewan without uttering a sound.
He's scared now.
As long as Su Yuewan doesn't speak, he will resolutely not speak on his own initiative. He wants to see how Su Yuewan will blame him!
"Why aren't you talking?"
It was unusually quiet, and Su Yuewan felt a little uncomfortable.
Bai Hao: “…”
I don't dare to speak now; I can't even say what I want to say.
You're the boss now, say whatever you want, I have nothing to say.
Bai Hao secretly pursed his lips and said, "I have nothing to say right now."
Seeing his scared look, Su Yuewan laughed.
It seems that pulling his ear earlier did have some effect.
However, seeing Bai Hao's swollen and red ears, Su Yuewan still felt a little guilty. She had acted impulsively and hit him too hard.
You shouldn't have used so much force.
But it was because this guy was constantly talking badly about her that she released all the resentment she had been holding in, and she accidentally went a little too far.
[Damn it, I really can't stay in this sect anymore, I have no choice but to leave.]
[Forget about any oaths of heaven, I'm running away tonight. Go ahead and kill me if you dare!]
[I'd rather be struck dead than put up with this!]
Bai Hao grew angrier the more he thought about it.
Why should I put up with this kind of treatment?!
Don't be offended by this!
Forget about oaths of heaven and being struck by lightning; if you're so capable, just strike him dead.
If all else fails, we can just time travel again!
Damn it!
Upon hearing Bai Hao's inner thoughts, Su Yuewan was taken aback.
The reason she dared to bully and exploit Bai Hao so brazenly was because she was convinced he wouldn't leave.
But now, it seems I've really angered him. What if he really leaves...?
Should we comfort him?
Apologize to him?
Su Yuewan hesitated.
She couldn't bring herself to apologize to Bai Hao.
She had never bowed down to apologize to anyone in her life, let alone since it was Bai Hao's own fault. She had only punished him slightly, so why should she apologize?
impossible!
She won't apologize.
If Bai Hao wants to leave, then let him leave!
Who cares about him!
If you're so capable, then don't come back!
Su Yuewan grew angrier the more she thought about it, and with a cold snort, she quickly flew back towards the direction of the Falling Sea Sect.
Bai Hao found it even stranger that she seemed to be sulking again.
"Is this woman really crazy? She gets angry so easily."
"Could it be that she's going through menopause?"
