So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

The carriage slowly moved along the street towards the Mu family's mansion with the sound of "knock knock knock".

Mu Zhian leaned in the carriage and turned his head to look at the street outside the window. Raindrops fell lightly from the sky, and countless ripples appeared on the wet ground, like countless lotus flowers blooming.

The whole street was rendered particularly hazy by the drizzle, and the carriage driving in the hazy drizzle and the vendors around formed a picture scroll with ancient beauty.

Bai Ruoxi sat upright in the carriage, slightly tilted her head to look at Mu Zhian, and whispered: "Master Mu, how have you considered it?"

Her voice was as cold as a cold spring, but her peach blossom eyes were charming and moving, with a charm that was a mixture of purity and charm.

However, at this time, the first beauty of Tianxuan City showed enough humility in front of Mu Zhian-although she had always looked down on this dandy boy in the past, at least in terms of attitude, she had done enough work.

Sitting next to Bai Ruoxi was a young man who looked a little thin, with soft black hair and pale skin because he had not been out for many years.

He was dressed very gorgeously, giving people the feeling that he was a nobleman who lived in seclusion.

Oh... to be precise, this young master of the Mu family was indeed a nobleman.

Because the Mu family was one of the most powerful forces in Tianxuan City.

Because of this, Bai Ruoxi was now in this carriage, facing Mu Zhian with such a humble attitude - even though she looked down on him from the bottom of her heart.

"Young Master Mu?"

Seeing that Mu Zhian did not answer, Bai Ruoxi's clear and pleasant voice called out again softly.

Mu Zhian just woke up from the sudden realization just now.

He turned his head slightly to look at Bai Ruoxi, and smiled: "You mean by consideration, let me, or let the Mu family help you out of trouble?"

About half a month ago, the Bai family offended the Dawn Chamber of Commerce because of some trade exchanges.

Soon after that, the Dawn Chamber of Commerce secretly put a lot of obstacles in the way. At first, the Bai family relied on their many years of heritage in Tianxuan City and were not afraid. But later, the Bai family discovered that the Dawn Chamber of Commerce had secretly colluded with the Bai family's hostile forces, the Gongsun family. One was in the open and the other was in the dark. The two forces actually put pressure on the Bai family together.

In less than half a month, the shops operated by the Bai family shrank significantly. If this continued, the Bai family's industry would probably be eroded in less than a month.

But if the Mu family could take action, everything would be solved... Because with the power of the Mu family in Tianxuan City, as long as they opened their mouths, the Dawn Chamber of Commerce and the Gongsun family would obey.

Bai Ruoxi nodded reservedly and said "hmm", looking at Mu Zhian's eyes with a wave of eyes, and whispered: "If Master Mu is willing to help, the Bai family will definitely give you a satisfactory thank-you gift later."

As she said this, she gently grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands, as if she felt a little humiliated for making such a request.

A beautiful woman spoke with such a helpless look and a sweet voice that could make people intoxicated. If a young man who had not experienced much of the world had said so, he would have agreed to it immediately.

Mu Zhian couldn't help but look at Bai Ruoxi twice more.

She was wearing a white palace skirt, her chest proudly supporting the fabric, her hair was simply tied up with a jade hairpin, a strand of hair slipped from the ear and gently rested on her face.

There was a hint of lazy fireworks in her coldness, which was most attractive to men.

I have to admit that this was indeed a beautiful woman, and even Mu Zhian couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

But soon, a faint smile appeared on his face, looking at Bai Ruoxi's face, and said: "What do you mean by a thank you gift? Can you be more specific?"

Bai Ruoxi was startled, obviously not expecting Mu Zhian's answer to be like this.

She looked at Mu Zhian, her mouth slightly opened, but then slowly closed.

What is a satisfactory thank you gift... She didn't know now.

In the final analysis, these words were just like empty promises. Bai Ruoxi, or more precisely, the Bai family, had never considered what the thank-you gift would be.

After all, Mu Zhian liked her.

This reason was enough... at least her mother thought so.

Sure enough...

Seeing Bai Ruoxi fall silent, Mu Zhian chuckled in her heart and said earnestly: "Miss Bai, you have to know that the Mu family is indeed powerful, but it is not a wise move to offend two families at once without getting any benefits."

"After all, if I speak up, it will not represent me personally, but the Mu family."

Bai Ruoxi subconsciously grasped the hem of her palace skirt and secretly glanced at Mu Zhian, her eyes full of complexity.

Is this guy's words just now forcing her to submit...

Mu Zhian had been pursuing Bai Ruoxi a long time ago, but the girl had never agreed.

But she didn't refuse either...

Because Mu Zhian is the young master of the Mu family, she thinks Mu Zhian will be of great use to her in the future.

Now is indeed the time when Mu Zhian can be of great use... But at this time, he rejected me.

Bai Ruoxi smiled sadly and said softly: "I know that my lukewarm attitude towards Master Mu in the past made you unhappy. If you want to reject Ruoxi, Master Mu should just say it directly. Why beat around the bush?"

Mu Zhian sighed: "I am not rejecting you, but if I ask, I need to consider the Mu family. If I help you for no reason, even if I am willing, the Mu family will not be willing."

"Miss Bai, you have to know that I am not in charge of the Mu family alone."

"Master Mu knows that the Bai family is in extreme embarrassment, what else can he give?" Bai Ruoxi raised her moist eyes, her delicate face looked pitiful.

Mu Zhian was startled: "Then shall I leave?"

Bai Ruoxi was silent and looked into Mu Zhian's eyes.

This woman really wanted to prostitute me for nothing... Mu Zhian could see it, so he had to spread his hands and said, ""It seems there's no need to talk. "

Mu Zhian turned around and opened the curtain, turned around and said, "I will ask the driver to take you back home. Miss Bai, please wish yourself well."

Seeing that Mu Zhian was about to leave, Bai Ruoxi's eyes flashed with a trace of anxiety. In panic, she stretched out her hand to hug Mu Zhian's arm, and followed closely with her delicate body.

Mu Zhian turned around and saw Bai Ruoxi looking at him with pitiful eyes, and said in a soft and mesmerizing voice: "What do you want Master Mu to do before he is willing to help? No matter what Ruoxi is asked to do, Ruoxi can do it." promise."

Why do you make me look like a bully who forced a common girl? Also, did she misunderstand me and think I wanted to force her to do something... Mu Zhian looked at the girl's pitiful eyes and lamented in his heart. There was a sound.

Then, he quickly felt relieved again.

On the contrary, it is not surprising that his past identity was misunderstood.

About a few days ago, Mu Zhian traveled through time.

To be precise, Mu Zhian traveled through time a long time ago, but as a child, Mu Zhian's brain capacity could not bear too many memories, and it was only recently that he awakened to the memory of his past life.

As the memories were thrust in and stirred like a tide, Mu Zhian, who was fused with the memories of his previous life, realized how many stupid things he had done in the past.

The eldest son of the Mu family in Tianxuan City was notorious for his evil deeds.

There is no shortage of visits to the Jiaofang Department and Goulan.

A few days ago, I even took a fancy to a beautiful woman whose husband passed away...

Fortunately, the memory was awakened in time. If it were any later, this number would probably be useless...

Mu Zhian looked at the system interface that only he could see, and thought silently.

[Name: Mu Zhian]

[Role Positioning: Supporting Role]

[Achievements: jealous of talents, born as a furnace, friend of villains. 】

Yes, Mu Zhian is positioned as a ‘supporting role’.

In other words, sooner or later, the supporting character will become a stepping stone to the ‘main character’.

To describe it in the words of the game, he is an elite monster, an elite monster used to "upgrade" the protagonist.
