Mu Yizi followed Luotuo Zi to Shen Bai's room, frowning as she sat on a stool and looked at the crying Shen Bai beside the bed. There was a white ribbon hanging from the ceiling not far away. It hung unsteadily on the house beam.
Since she was young, Mu Yizi had always been surrounded by rough old masters. He had never met a man who could even shed tears. She had thought that only a little girl would like to wipe away her tears when she had nothing to do.
”Enough, don't cry! [What is a man crying for?] Didn't they already rescue you? Why are you still like this, acting like a woman! ” He was truly annoyed by Shen Bai's crying. In addition to the anger from being woken up, Mu Yurou finally couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted out.
After being yelled at like that, Shen Bai was slightly stunned for a moment. The result was that he cried even harder.
Mu Yizi didn't know what to do. She really didn't know how to tease people. She had always been raised like a man. Right now, the Shen Bai in front of her was like a little girl in a hut at the foot of the mountain crying, making her feel troubled.
”If you cry again, then get the hell out of the Qingfeng Stronghold.” Mu Yizi's patience disappeared even faster than the fireworks in the sky. Furthermore, Shen Bai was not a real girl, and she did not have the mind to try and coax him.
However, her threat really did work. Shen Bai immediately retracted his tears, changing his expression into one of resentment as he looked at Mu Yuesheng silently.
In contrast, Mu Yizi suddenly felt that it would be better to let him grumble and feel comfortable if he stared at her.
”Aiya, okay, what are you trying to do? I saved you from rich Meng. Since the room is not round, you are still innocent. Are you thinking about your so-called eighty-year-old mother? Don't be ridiculous, you don't have any eighty year old mother, do you? ”
Mu Yiran really couldn't stand Shen Bai's resentful gaze, so she could only tell him straight to the point. In any case, this was Fresh Breeze Stronghold, her territory. She didn't believe that a weak scholar like Shen Bai would be able to overturn the heavens.
Shen Bai did not say anything as he awkwardly glanced at Mu Yizi, who was standing beside her.
Mu Yizi waved her hand and said to Moyu, ”Moyu, you can leave first.”
Muddy Son was still surprised that Mu Yizi knew that Shen Bai's old mother was lying. But since she told him to go out, he didn't dare disobey. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and quickly walk out. He even carefully closed the door for them.
”Alright, your son has left. Now you can clearly explain what you really want to do, right?” After the son of a b * tch left, Mu Yurou leaned against the table, supporting her head with her hands as she watched Shen Bai's expression change.
This man was definitely not as simple as he looked. But she liked dealing with smart people.
After the Bandits left, Shen Bai quickly put away his crying expression, as if the one who had been wronged was not him.
”What do you think I want to do?” At this moment, Shen Bai squinted his eyes and leaned against the bed, looking at Mu Yizi with his charming eyes.
Although the phrase 'seductive gaze and silklike appearance' was really inappropriate when applied to a man, who told Shen Baijie to have such a devilish face? It was no wonder that rich Meng was interested in him. Anyone who saw his face would not be able to hold back, right?
”No matter what you want to do, as long as you don't touch the people around me, you can do whatever you want to me.” But don't expect me to wipe your ass. ”This time, I've already offended Lord Meng because of you. Don't even think about the next time.”
Mu Yizi never liked it when others were hanging out with her, unless the person who was hanging out with them was her. She stood up and pointed at Shen Bai while speaking indifferently, but the threat in her eyes was clear. With that, she turned around and prepared to leave.
”Hehe, I'm afraid you've already formed a relationship with rich Meng. How can you blame me for this?” At this moment, he was like a leopard that was closely staring at its prey. Before he caught it, he was merely teasing it in a bored manner.
Mu Yizi's interest was piqued after hearing Shen Bai's words. Hearing the meaning behind those words, not only did Shen Bai know that she changed the appearance of the Qingfeng Stronghold, he also knew that she would usually bully rich Meng.
Generally speaking, the citizens of the Agarwood City only knew that the Qingfeng Stronghold was a place where they stole homes. Only the commoners of the Qingtong Mountain knew that she had changed after taking over the stronghold. Furthermore, she had long ago instructed her brothers to keep their mouths shut about their change in front of the people at the foot of the mountain.
”In the past, I always brought my brothers to 'pay a visit' to rich Meng, and also to receive some gifts from him in return. That was just to build a good relationship with Moneybag Meng. After all, Moneybag Meng was also a big family in Agarwood City, so they could not afford to offend him. But today, I snatched you back, and it was in front of so many people. With Lord Meng's vengeful personality, he might even settle the score with me. Do you think you can blame me for this? ”
Shen Bai and Mu Yiran were acting like they were fighting a primal war. They did not say what their true intentions were, but they were always probing what the other wanted to do. In some ways, the two of them were somewhat alike.
The short silence caused the atmosphere to become inexplicably subtle. Shen Bai laughed out loud, suddenly feeling that something was amiss. He used his sleeves to cover his face with a smile.
”What are you laughing at?” Mu Yizi looked at him, puzzled. She couldn't understand how he could laugh at such a serious time.
The awkwardness of not being exposed was one thing, but there was actually no panic of having his secret discovered? This caused Mu Youzi to feel very frustrated, and even a bit frustrated. Had she guessed wrongly?
”No, nothing. I just didn't expect you to be so much smarter than I thought. ” Shen Bai put his hands down and finally sat up straight, admiringly looking at Mu Yizi who was standing on the same spot.
