Chapter 2 Returned
"Young Master." Qi Si walked in with his head lowered and called out.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, glanced at Qi Si unkindly, and said impatiently, "Didn't I tell you to stop bothering me?"
Mu Chen lowered his head. According to the original book, Mu Chen's mother died young. His father, Mu Yuanfeng, was an alchemist who often retreated to refine his elixirs. Although he loved Mu Chen, Mu Yuanfeng had little time to care for him. Whenever Mu Chen got into trouble, Mu Yuanfeng would always come out to clean up the mess for the original owner.
Qi Si showed an awkward expression and said cautiously, "Of course I remember what the young master said, but Young Master Zhuang Yu is here."
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, looked at Qi Si, and said, "He's here? What's he doing here?"
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Although Qi Si behaved respectfully, Mu Chen knew that this man was not as kind to him as he seemed on the surface, because this man was Mu Chen's uncle Mu Yuanhang, a thorn in Mu Chen's side.
According to memory, Mu Chen was very obedient when he was a child, and he had a good talent for alchemy. However, since he was old enough to understand, this guy had been smuggling all kinds of toys to Mu Chen. After all, Mu Chen was young and unstable, and he soon became addicted to eating, drinking and having fun, wasting a lot of time.
Mu Chen was somewhat in awe of Mu Yuanfeng, and Mu Yuanhang was willing to cover for Mu Chen. Therefore, Mu Chen lived a life of eating, drinking, and having fun, like a fish in water.
Although Mu Yuanfeng found that Mu Chen was a little obsessed with pleasure, after disciplining him several times, Mu Chen still did the same. Over time, he could only let it go.
Qi Si glanced at Mu Chen and said, "Master Zhuang Yu, I'm here to return the Jade Water Sword. He said that no reward should be given without merit."
"Where are the others?" Mu Chen asked.
"He's gone." Qi Si said.
"Where is the sword?" Mu Chen asked.
Muchen rolled his eyes in his heart. According to the setting in the book, Zhuang Yu was a handsome man with noble character who was indifferent to worldly affairs. There was no reason for such a handsome man to accept things from Muchen, a second-generation rich man.
Muchen scoffed at this. You have to know that Zhuang Yu himself has limited talent, and the only reason he can be so successful is because he has a group of flower-guarding messengers who will do anything for him. Although this guy confiscated Muchen's Green Water Sword, he has collected a lot of other people's things.
Mu Chen felt that Zhuang Yu refused to accept Mu Chen's gift because, first, that was pretentious, and second, that he looked down on it. Mu Chen spent five hundred Yuan stones to buy the Green Water Sword, but in fact, he was cheated because the sword was only worth fifty Yuan stones at most.
Mu Chen felt that if he directly gave Zhuang Yu 500 yuan stones, Zhuang Yu might be more likely to accept it.
Qi Si's heart trembled, he glanced at Mu Chen and said, "It's with me."
Muchen had a bad temper and would not take back the things he gave away, so Qi Si took it upon himself to hide the sword, thinking that if Zhuang Yu refused to accept it and Muchen didn't mention it for fear of embarrassment, he could just steal the sword.
"With you? What do you want to do? Keep it for yourself?" Mu Chen said with unfriendly eyes.
Qi Si knelt down and said, "Master, how dare I? I'm afraid you'll feel bad when you see that sword."
Mu Chen snorted lightly and said, "It's uncomfortable, why should I feel uncomfortable? Bring me the sword."
Qi Si nodded and replied, "Yes!"
Muchen took a deep breath. According to the original text, Muchen would be furious because Zhuang Yu returned his sword, and would fight to the death with Zhuang Yu's protector, the second-generation rich man Chen Moran. The two would fight fiercely, and both Muchen and Zhuang Yu would be seriously injured. His father would also have a rift with the Chen family because of this.
