 Bai Ruoxi sat on a chair in the side hall, and the tea on the table had already gone cold.
 She frowned and pursed her lips, looking absent-minded.
 This was no wonder, after all, Mu Zhian had said before that he would give him two or three days to think about it, and now two full days had passed. The longer the time dragged on, the greater the loss of the Bai family. Today, under the pressure of her mother, she had to come to visit the Mu family again.
 A servant walked into the hall and respectfully called out: "Miss Bai."
 Bai Ruoxi raised her eyes slightly, and saw that Mu Zhian was not with the servant. She was inevitably disappointed and whispered: "Is Master Mu not free now?"
 The servant said respectfully: "Master Mu went to the Jiaofangsi, and asked you to wait for him in the teahouse opposite."
 "Jiaofangsi...?" Bai Ruoxi repeated the name and frowned inadvertently.
 She was a little confused by Mu Zhian's actions.
 Generally speaking, who would go to the Jiaofangsi and tell a woman so openly?
 Unless the other party did not consider that woman as a love object at all.
 But this is impossible...
 There must be some reason.
 Bai Ruoxi is an extremely intelligent woman, and she also thinks she is a great beauty.
 This is not narcissism, but just a fact.
 In the entire Tianxuan City, there is indeed no second woman more beautiful than Bai Ruoxi.
 Those with similar looks do not have big breasts, and those with the same big breasts are not as beautiful as her.
 Although Mu Zhian's current performance does not seem to have much interest in her, it is absolutely impossible to say that he does not like her at all.
 He probably went to the Jiaofangsi for something... But what exactly did he go to the Jiaofangsi for?
 Bai Ruoxi quickly came to her senses, politely thanked the attendant, and left with the umbrella borrowed from the Mu family last night.
 ...
 Jiaofangsi
 Mu Zhian lazily leaned on the soft couch, and the courtesan Yang Yanyan, who was wearing half-covered clothes, gently massaged his shoulders and said softly: "Young Master, you haven't come to the Jiaofangsi these days, but you have a new love outside?"
 In Tianxuan City, people from all over the world would take the initiative to avoid Mu Zhian and avoid any contact with him, but only places like the Jiaofangsi and the brothels would not do so.
 On the contrary, they welcomed Mu Zhian.
 On the one hand, Mu Zhian's facial features were quite handsome, and it was often pleasant to chat with him. On the other hand, sometimes when he was excited, he would give some tips.
 In Tianxuan City, there were not many rich young men who could spend money lavishly and give tips at any time, and Mu Zhian happened to be one of them.
 Mu Zhian smiled, gently patted the slender white back of the beauty's hand, and said: "There are matters to be dealt with in the family these days, so it is really inconvenient to come out and play."
 Yang Yanyan's eyes flickered slightly, and then she smiled softly: "So that's the case, it's really hard for Master Mu."
 Although she didn't believe that this playboy could handle the affairs of the Mu family, since the other party said so, she naturally couldn't spoil it, and would follow Mu Zhian's words.
 Mu Zhian obviously saw that Yang Yanyan didn't believe it, but just smiled and didn't explain.
 While enjoying Yang Yanyan's massage on his shoulders, he picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea, and chatted with the courtesan for a few words.
 Then he suddenly asked casually: "By the way, has Gongsun Zan come in the past few days?"
 Yang Yanyan was startled, kneading Mu Zhian's shoulders, looking up and recalling, and whispered: "I saw him last night, but it was not me who received him."
 These courtesans of the Jiaofang Division generally sell their art but not their bodies, and Yang Yanyan is the same. Unless she is particularly pleasing to the eye or the other party gives too much to make her heart move, she will generally go back after the performance.
 "Has he not come today?" Mu Zhian asked.
 Yang Yanyan shook her head gently: "I'm not sure about this... Why did Mr. Mu suddenly ask this?"
 As she said, there was a little more curiosity in her eyes when she looked at Mu Zhian.
 Although Gongsun Zan's clan is also powerful, unlike Mu Zhian, in fact, most people, including the courtesans of the Jiaofang Division, don't like him very much.
 On the one hand, it is because Gongsun Zan has done a lot of bad things on weekdays, which is disgusting, and on the other hand... it is because Gongsun Zan is not very good-looking.
 Mu Zhian gently patted the courtesan's buttocks and said with a smile: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
 The courtesan twisted her body and said "hate" in a soft voice, but did not push away Mu Zhian's palm.
 Then, she hesitated, and suddenly lowered her voice and said:
 "Speaking of which, I heard someone who served Master Gongsun say something yesterday."
 Mu Zhian raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What is it?"
 The courtesan glanced around, as if she was afraid of being overheard.
 She leaned close to Mu Zhian's ear and whispered: "I heard that Gongsun Zan is going to bring people to confiscate the house today."
 Mu Zhian was thoughtful.
 It is not uncommon to confiscate the house. Tianxuan City is so big, and the Gongsun family, the Mu family, and even the Bai family have a deep relationship with the court. Sometimes some of the affairs of confiscation are also handed over to these three families.
 It is said that all the property after the confiscation will be confiscated, but the three major families will embezzle some every time, which is also within the scope of tacit consent.
 "Whose house did you rob?" Mu Zhian asked.
 Yang Yanyan shook her head slightly: "I don't know about that. Gongsun Zan never said that."
 Mu Zhian said "hmm" slightly and did not ask any more questions.
 Since Gongsun Zan went to confiscate the house today, I can only contact Gongsun Zan later... Mu Zhian thought of this, put down the teacup, and stood up.
 "Master Mu is leaving?" Yang Yanyan was a little surprised.
 Mu Zhian smiled: "I have some things to deal with later, so I will leave for the time being today."
 Although Yang Yanyan repeatedly tried to keep him, Mu Zhian still declined tactfully.
 After leaving the Jiaofangsi, Mu Zhian was about to walk towards the teahouse not far from the Jiaofangsi.
 At this time, he saw a young man of average appearance, about 30 years old, coming towards him. He had thin lips and a pair of triangular eyes that looked a little gloomy. He exuded a rebellious temperament. Just looking at his face, people would be a little discouraged.
 This person was the third young master of the Gongsun family, Gongsun Zan.
 If Mu Zhian is a "bad boy" who follows the route of a boy next door, then Gongsun Zan is a pure "bully". He doesn't care about his appearance. With the power of the Gongsun family, it's not difficult to get anything, so there's no need to disguise himself.
 I guessed right, Gongsun Zan is here... Mu Zhian smiled and said, "Master Gongsun, are you here just now?"
 Gongsun Zan was startled, as if he didn't expect Mu Zhian to take the initiative to greet him.
 Although they both have bad reputations, the two had no intersection in the past.
 Gongsun Zan nodded slightly and smiled, "I haven't seen Master Mu these days. I thought he had turned over a new leaf. Now it seems that Master Mu was probably put in solitary confinement a few days ago?"
 It sounds like a greeting, but in fact there is a bit of sarcasm in the tone.
 This is a matter of course... because Gongsun Zan looks down on Mu Zhian, or is jealous of him.
 Although they were both evil young men with a very bad reputation, Mu Zhian was treated much better in the Jiaofangsi than him. Sometimes some of the courtesans named by Gongsun Zan might not accept him.
 But if it was Mu Zhian, none of the courtesans in the Jiaofangsi had rejected him so far.
 And this was purely because of Mu Zhian's handsome face that easily attracted the love of the imperial sister.
 Before Mu Zhian could speak, Gongsun Zan bowed and said, "I have something to deal with later, so I'll leave first. Master Mu, please do as you please."
 As he said that, he walked around Mu Zhian and walked into the Jiaofangsi. He glanced at Mu Zhian's handsome face and curled his lips in disdain.
 Even if it was the Mu family, the eldest young master of the Mu family was still a waste like him, and could only find a sense of existence in the women of the Jiaofangsi.
 He had the nerve to pursue Bai Ruoxi a few days ago?
 He didn't even think that the arrogant woman would like him?
 "Then I won't bother Master Gongsun."
 Mu Zhian also bowed his hands. Seeing Gongsun Zan curled his lips in disdain before leaving, he just smiled and didn't care.
 After all, he is already like this, why not obey him?
 In the Gongsun family, Gongsun Zan has the lowest status, and even the two younger brothers can instigate him at will.
 And this is purely because Gongsun Zan is already 32 years old this year, but he still doesn't want to make progress, and he is still in the refining essence stage.
 But it is precisely because of this that it is easier to get some information from Gongsun Zan.
 It will be better to have more contact with him later... After all, this kind of person has a very weak inner defense.
 Mu Zhian looked at Gongsun Zan walking into the Jiaofang Division, smiled, and turned to walk into the teahouse opposite.
 Bai Ruoxi was already waiting in a bright teahouse. She was wearing a white low-cut long skirt today, with a little white naked outside, adding a different kind of charm to her.
 Her legs were long and round, and she sat with her knees together. Her snow-white and flawless face was delicate and charming, and she looked very pretty.
 Seeing Mu Zhian, Bai Ruoxi's eyes immediately lit up a little, and she whispered, "Master Mu, sit here."
 She pointed to the seat opposite.
 Mu Zhian smiled and nodded, and then sat next to Bai Ruoxi.
 Bai Ruoxi glanced at Mu Zhian faintly, but did not ask him to stay away.
 After pouring a cup of tea for Mu Zhian, Bai Ruoxi whispered, "Master Mu just went to the Jiaofang Division. There must be something important, right?"
 "Miss Bai is really smart," Mu Zhian smiled, "I went to see Gongsun Zan."
 "The third son of the Gongsun family..." Bai Ruoxi frowned inadvertently.
 After all, the Gongsun family was one of the culprits for the Bai family's current situation. Now that she heard about the Gongsun family, Bai Ruoxi naturally felt a little strange.
 Mu Zhian drank his tea slowly and continued, "Today, I received news from a spy that Gongsun Zan and Ye Yu seem to have some close connections."
 "Ye Yu? How could he be with Gongsun Zan?" Bai Ruoxi was a little unbelievable.
 The relationship between the Ye family and the Bai family is there. Now that the Bai family is in trouble, it's fine if the Ye family doesn't intervene. There shouldn't be any cooperation with the Gongsun family...
 Mu Zhian smiled and said, "Maybe they got the news from somewhere and don't want the Mu family to intervene, so they used Ye Yu to disturb our good thing."
 "Ye Yu was able to find the Mu family two days ago. It should be someone from the Gongsun family who leaked this matter."
 When the word "good thing" was mentioned, Bai Ruoxi seemed to think of something. Her cheeks suddenly became a little red. She secretly glanced at Mu Zhian and whispered, "I'm really sorry about Ye Yu that night."
 Since returning that day, Bai Ruoxi has been a little worried that Mu Zhian would be angry because Ye Yu splashed tea on him, and no longer considered whether to come forward to rescue the Bai family.
 Although Mu Zhian sent an umbrella that night and expressed that he needed to think about it again, no one knew what the other party really thought.
 At this time, Mu Zhian gently held Bai Ruoxi's soft little hand and smiled: "What does Ye Yu's matter have to do with you?"
 Bai Ruoxi's body stiffened slightly, secretly looked at the handsome face, and her eyes were full of complexity.
 Sometimes she couldn't tell whether she didn't resist because she was forced to... or for other reasons?
 This teahouse happened to be located not far from the Jiaofangsi. Often, dignitaries would come to the teahouse after finishing their business and order a pot of hot tea to chat with their colleagues.
 The teahouse where Mu Zhian was located was relatively remote, so there were not many pedestrians passing by.
 He inadvertently glanced at the curtain outside the teahouse. Behind the curtain, it seemed that a figure quietly retreated.
 Mu Zhian's mind moved.
 Someone was eavesdropping...?
 Was it the Gongsun family or the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce?
 No... they shouldn't have the guts to do that. If the Mu family finds out, the consequences will be very serious.
 Is it the mysterious black-robed man who wants Ye Yu...?
 Mu Zhian pondered for a moment, holding Bai Ruoxi's slender hand with one hand, slightly tilted his head, leaned close to her ear, made a gesture as if he was going to kiss the girl's cheek, and whispered something in her ear.
 Bai Ruoxi's eyes flickered slightly, and soon, a faint blush appeared on her face. After a long silence, she whispered:
 "Master Mu is right. His affairs have nothing to do with me."

 Mu Zhian traveled to the world of immortals and became a supporting role destined to be used as a stepping stone by the protagonist. 
 He wanted to make friends with the protagonists who were the chosen ones, but when Mu Zhian looked back, he found that the girls around him were either the protagonist's childhood sweethearts or the protagonist's fiancée. 
 The most incredible thing is that those girls who should have liked the protagonist all liked Mu Zhian, the supporting role. Looking at the beautiful girls around him, Mu Zhian had a bold idea and decided to kill the protagonist and turn over to be the master. 
 After finally leveling several protagonists and getting a lot of resources, he shared many resources with the girls around him in order to improve the strength of the girls. 
 I thought that I would be able to prove my Dao and become an emperor in the future with many resources, and ascend to the immortal world. 
 Until one day, looking at the rolling clouds in the sky and the several empresses who were reborn in the thunderstorm, Mu Zhian's eyes gradually lost their spirit and murmured: "I am so stupid, really... I thought that after killing those chosen ones, I would be the protagonist of the new world and a future immortal-level strongman, but I didn't expect... they were the protagonists."
