"Your Highness, I was ignorant before, but now I understand that only you truly love me, and I am willing..."
Mu Yazhi tried to tug at Wei Xu's sleeve with a charming voice, but before she could even touch it, Wei Xu frowned and dodged to the side.
Wei Xu's face no longer held any trace of the infatuation he once had for Mu Yazhi. Now, he only regretted that he hadn't seen through Mu Yazhi's true colors sooner.
“Miss Mu, there’s no need to humiliate yourself by saying these things against your conscience. I have changed my mind now and I hope that Miss Mu will stop bothering me.”
Wei Xu even had a hint of disgust in his eyes. If he hadn't been recommended for an official position today and hadn't come to thank Mu Chenshuang, he wouldn't have expected to meet Mu Yazhi and even get entangled with her.
Wei Xu felt a pang of regret and emotion. He had been deceived by Mu Yazhi and had been sincere towards her, only to be discarded like trash. Now, Mu Yazhi was trying to win him back with sweet words and flattery.
Thinking of this, Wei Xu looked at Mu Yazhi with disdain. He simply did not believe that Mu Yazhi would suddenly change and fall in love with him. He was probably up to some ulterior motive and wanted to take advantage of him.
Not wanting to be bothered by Mu Yazhi, Wei Xu was about to turn and leave when he suddenly looked up and saw Mu Chenshuang standing not far away. He was slightly taken aback and quickly walked towards her.
Seeing this, Mu Chenshuang, who was standing not far away, also walked towards the two. Since all martial artists were from the country of Erli, she had naturally heard their conversation clearly.
"Master, please don't misunderstand." Wei Xu hurriedly explained, as if afraid that Mu Chenshuang would misunderstand that he was infatuated with Mu Yazhi again, "Today I filled a vacancy for a sixth-rank official, and I will go to the outskirts of the capital to take up my post in three days."
"I came here specifically to thank you, Master. This is a gift my father specially prepared for you, Master, to express his gratitude for your dedicated guidance and mentorship over the past few days," Wei Xu said calmly.
Seeing that he had become more composed and his eyes had brightened after these days of experience, Mu Chenshuang noticed that he seemed to have found a goal to strive for.
Seeing Wei Xu's transformation, Mu Chenshuang felt genuinely gratified and happy for him.
Mu Chenshuang generously accepted the gift from the Prince of Wei's mansion, and earnestly instructed, "This is a good thing. You have no experience as an official before. Although the position of a sixth-rank official is small, it is a good opportunity and experience for you."
“After you go to the outskirts of Beijing, you should do more research, visit people, investigate their conditions, and truly do things for them. You may encounter many difficulties, but I hope you can stick to your original intention.” Mu Chenshuang looked at Wei Xu with a deep gaze. These words were a warning and admonition to him.
Fortunately, Wei Xu understood her words and immediately bowed respectfully, saying, "Master, rest assured, I will definitely remember your teachings."
After he finished speaking, seeing that Mu Chenshuang nodded, he took his leave without even glancing at Mu Yazhi.
Standing to the side, Mu Yazhi looked slightly embarrassed. She watched Wei Xuzhen leave without any mercy, feeling anxious and angry. She couldn't hide it on her face and could only glare angrily at Mu Chenshuang.
She didn't believe that Mu Chenshuang could stay as glamorous as she was now. She was waiting for Mu Chenshuang to be exposed for her misdeeds, but she didn't know the principle that everyone prospers or suffers together, and she was even more unaware that the Jingbian Marquis's mansion was currently in a precarious situation.
