The two looked at each other, and Lu Jingzhi coughed, breaking the awkward silence: "I just helped you heal your injuries."
"Yan An was just scared by you, so she kicked you away."
"I'll treat you to a meal and a drink in Luoyun City later. It's my way of making up for it. How do you think?"
The fear in Ye Wu's heart gradually subsided. He looked at Yan An, thought for a moment, and said, "That...that's fine, but I want to eat at a restaurant, and...it has to be the best restaurant."
"Of course no problem, I don't mind this little money." Lu Jingzhi agreed readily.
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door.
Yan An walked to the door, opened it and saw Xu Mucheng walking in with an expressionless face.
"Is Ye Wu here?" Xu Mucheng's voice was cold and serious.
Yan An nodded, indicating that Ye Wu was in the house.
"I have some personal matters I want to discuss with him." Xu Mucheng's eyes fell on Ye Wu lying on the bed.
Lu Jingzhi sat up from the bed and looked at Xu Muqing warily, "President Xu, you don't want to kill him, do you?"
Although Ye Wu deserved a beating, it was just that. If someone wanted to kill him, he would naturally have to protect him. After all, he was a member of the Lu family and his friend.
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Wu on the bed turned pale with fright and almost cried.
"President Xu... President Xu, I have no grudge against you. There's no need to kill me!"
Xu Muqing snorted coldly, his eyes filled with indifference and disdain, then turned to look at Lu Jingzhi beside him, "Don't worry, I will leave a breath for you to treat."
"But this guy took advantage of my apprentice's drunkenness and took advantage of him. Of course I have to teach him a lesson."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi shook his head helplessly, "Ye Wu, you have to learn from me."
"Learn...learn from you?"
"Well, a gentleman like me would never take advantage of someone in distress."
Yan An rolled his eyes at him. He didn't expect him to call himself a "gentleman".
"Okay, there's no point in talking any more. I'm going out first." He stood up and looked at Xu Muqing, "President Xu, please don't hurt his life."
"Well, don't worry."
After getting the answer, he turned around and prepared to leave the room, but at this moment, Ye Wu suddenly reached out and grabbed his right hand tightly.
"Boss, let me go out with you!"
"I don't want to stay in the room."
However, Lu Jingzhi gently shook off his hand, "Didn't you hear? President Xu has something important to discuss with you, so just stay with her and chat."
After saying that, he pulled Yan An out of the room without hesitation and carefully closed the door before leaving.
Only Xu Mucheng and Ye Wu were left in the room, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Ye Wu's face turned extremely pale. He pretended to be calm, picked up the pillow and hugged it tightly to his chest.
After a while, Ye Wu asked cautiously, "Um... President Xu, is Danyu okay now?"
"No, if you hadn't touched her, would she be okay?"
Ye Wu looked innocent, "President Xu... President Xu, I really didn't know it would be like this!"
President Xu clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles making crisp crackling sounds, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
But soon, she regained her composure and said calmly: "It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not."
The next moment, a pig-slaughtering howl rang out in the room, echoing throughout the entire space.
At this time, Lu Jingzhi and Xiaoya, who came rushing over after hearing the noise, were sticking close to the door, listening intently to the movements inside the house.
Yan An sat leisurely on the fence of the ark, admiring the funny scene in front of him with great interest and couldn't help laughing out loud.
About a cup of tea later...
The door of the room finally opened slowly.
Xu Mucheng clapped his hands lightly, his eyes first stayed on Lu Jingzhi for a few seconds, and then glanced over again.
"President Danchen, I have already taught him a lesson on behalf of Danyu." Xu Mucheng said with a smile.
Dan Chen stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "Thank you, President."
"Yes." Xu Muqing turned to look at Lu Jingzhi, "You should go in and treat him. If we delay too long, his life might be in danger."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi glanced into the room curiously, only to see that Ye Wu's face was covered in bruises and swollen like a pig's head.
"Eh!"
"Who is this?" Lu Jingzhi asked in surprise.
Lu Xiaoya came over and carefully observed the person lying on the ground, muttering to herself, "Although he was beaten beyond recognition, I can still vaguely make out this miserable and fat face."
At this time, Ye Wu opened his swollen lips with difficulty and uttered a few words: "I... I... don't dare anymore." As soon as he finished speaking, he fainted completely.
Upon seeing this, Lu Jingzhi immediately released the healing power of the magnolia and enveloped Ye Wu.
Ye Wu's wounds healed quickly and his physical condition improved greatly in an instant.
At this moment, Danyu slowly walked into the room, looked at Ye Wu who had been cured, snorted, and then turned and walked towards Xu Mucheng's room.
Lu Jingzhi withdrew Mulian's healing power and stood up from the bed. "My lady, let's go to the bow of the boat and get some fresh air."
Yan An nodded, "Yeah, I feel a little bored too."
Lu Jingzhi turned to Lu Xiaoya and said, "Xiaoya, please take care of Ye Wu."
Hearing this, Lu Xiaoya frowned, looked at Ye Wu with disdain, and muttered, "Isn't he already well? I'm going back to my room to practice."
"Then your name is Meng Zan."
"Alright."
Then, the three of them left Ye Wu's room.
Lu Jingzhi took Yan An's hand and went to the bow of the boat to get some fresh air.
Yan An leaned on his shoulder, her black hair fluttering in the wind.
"Uh... Madam, last night..."
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Yan An looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
He touched his nose and coughed twice. "Last night, Xu Muqing's other soul said that her sister likes me."
Yan An narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why? You like her too?"
Lu Jingzhi clearly felt that the air around him had become colder.
It's like there's a sword hanging over your neck, and if you say something wrong, your head will fall off.
