C29 (1/2)
For the first time, Mu Yizi did not get angry when she heard this. Instead, she laughed out loud.
Tang Jingyu was startled and stammered as he pointed at her, ”You …” What are you laughing at? ”
Shen Bai, who was at the side, clenched his fist into a fist and coughed twice. Tang Jingyu cautiously looked at Shen Bai and immediately shut his mouth.
It was unknown if Mu Yizi had seen wrongly, but she actually felt that Tang Jingyu seemed to be very afraid of Shen Bai.
Every time, she would find something interesting with Shen Bai. Now that she was in a good mood, she felt that these kinds of days might not be that scary after all.
Even if she didn't come here, who could guarantee that nothing else would disturb her peace?
One step at a time!
”Didn't you ask me why I was laughing? Then I'll tell you, I'm laughing at your arrogance, and relying on your father's background to have no fear. ”If you were in our stronghold, you would have been beaten black and blue by my brothers.”
Mu Youzi placed her hands behind her back and arrogantly said as she walked in front of Tang Jingyu.
However, what she said was indeed the truth. The brothers at the stronghold despised those from wealthy families the most. They were proud because they had some family background.
To put it nicely, he was relying on his power to bully others. To put it bluntly, he was relying on his power.
”You … What right do you have to say that I relied on my father's backing? ” Tang Jingyu was so angry from embarrassment that she no longer cared about Shen Bai's presence. Her hand was already on her waist as she prepared to remove her crossbow.
Mu Yurou glanced at Tang Jingyu's hand without the slightest fear in her eyes. Instead, she intentionally provoked him by continuing, ”Look at your body, which one didn't give you by your father? Including that crossbow at your waist, didn't your father spend money to hire someone to make it for you? ”
”You … You're a bandit, yet you stole everything from someone else. Do you really have the nerve to say that to me? ”Hrmph.” Tang Jingyu disdainfully rolled his eyes at Mu Yizi, as if he felt that he was only on par with her.
Mu Yizi sneered, ”Why don't you go to the Green Tong Mountain and ask about the reputation of my Qingfeng Stronghold? I don't dare to say anything else. However, if you really want to worry about who I snatched away, you can only rely on the rich man who does all sorts of evil deeds. Could it be that you want to tell me that you think I stole the wrong person? ”
Tang Jingyu choked and was speechless. He didn't dare to take the crossbow and do anything to her, so he could only angrily point at her and not say anything.
Although Tang Jingyu choked in anger at Mu Yurou, Shen Bai didn't seem to have the intention of helping him.
Mu Yiran wanted to anger Tang Jingyu on purpose. This way, if she ever decided not to bother with him again, she could use this reason to kick him out.
Unfortunately, with Shen Bai here, Tang Jingyu didn't dare act rashly. This made Mu Youzi feel a little bored.
”Whatever, you little brat, why should I tell you these things?” Let Shen Bai... No, let me take you to find an empty room to stay in first. Today, my body is not feeling well, so don't disturb me. ”
Finished speaking, Mu Yiran turned around and returned to her own courtyard, no longer paying attention to the two people who were standing there with different expressions.
Tang Jingyu looked at Shen Bai with a somewhat embarrassed expression. There was even a trace of fear in his eyes. He didn't know why he had been so scared ever since he was young.
Shen Bai, on the other hand, had a worried expression on his face as he watched her figure gradually disappear into the distance. He pondered whether or not he should go visit Tang Jingyu after he made his arrangements.
”Master Shen, I …” Tang Jingyu's lips moved, but before he could finish, Shen Bai shot him a sharp look, but he no longer dared to say anything.
