So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Mujia, side hall.

Mu Zhian changed his clothes and came to the clean and elegant hall, where he met the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan City.

Different from the daytime, when she visited the Mu family tonight, she wore a white double-breasted dress that fit her personality. The long skirt with a waist outline outlined her plump breasts and slender waist. Under the skirt, she wore a pair of plain-colored shorts. Compact boots.

Her hair was simply pulled up with a hosta, and some black silk hanging down to rest on her delicate face, adding a bit of three-dimensionality to her like a mixed-race beauty.

She was holding a cup of tea just brought by the maid in both hands, looking at the tea with her eyes lowered absentmindedly, and even Mu Zhian didn't notice that she had entered the hall.

Mu Zhian sat calmly on the chair next to Bai Ruoxi, poured a cup of tea and made tea quietly while admiring the beauty's dazed look.

After a while, Bai Ruoxi finally woke up from her daze, turned her head slightly to look to her side, opened her mouth slightly, and said in surprise:

"Master Mu, when did you come?"

After saying that, he quickly bowed his head and apologized: "Sorry, I was thinking about other things just now and didn't notice you coming over."

Mu Zhian shook his head and smiled gently: "It's okay, I don't mind this little thing."

After a pause, Mu Zhian changed his tone and said, "Rather than this, I'm a little curious. It's raining so heavily tonight. Why did Miss Bai come to my Mu's house so late at night?"

You know, it's already past Hai hour... If converted to modern time, it would be after 11 o'clock in the evening.

Usually at this point, it was already time to fall asleep, but Bai Ruoxi did not hesitate to visit the Mu family late at night in the heavy rain. It would be strange if nothing happened.

Bai Ruoxi's expression was stagnant, her mouth slightly opened several times, and then she slowly closed it.

She gently pinched the fabric at the edge of her skirt with her delicate hands, her eyes filled with confusion.

There was an eerie silence in the hall.

Mu Zhian gave Bai Ruoxi a strange look, calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip, breaking the silence and said: "Miss Bai, if nothing happens, I will ask my servant to take you back."

As he said that, he was about to get up.

Bai Ruoxi felt anxious in her heart and hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold the back of Mu Zhian's hand and said, "Master Mu, Ruoxi does have something to ask for."

Mu Zhian sighed softly: "If it's not a matter about the Bai family, everything else is easy to discuss."

Bai Ruoxi stiffened slightly and looked at Mu Zhian with complicated eyes.

Originally, according to Bai Ruoxi's original idea, in order to pursue her, Mu Zhian should take the initiative to solve the Bai family's troubles.

After all, this is the best opportunity to increase your favorability. When Miss Bai encounters trouble and is troubled, the eldest son of the Mu family descends like a magic weapon from the sky, solves the trouble, and brings the beauty home... This is a perfect script. .

But who would have thought that Mu Zhian would change in just one day.

He no longer cares so much about the "goddess" he pursued in the past.

Bai Ruoxi didn't know whether Mu Zhian didn't care about her anymore, or was just waiting for her to take the initiative... But she had no choice now.

At present, the Bai family has been pushed to the edge of the cliff by the Gongsun family and the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce. No matter what Mu Zhian thinks, the only thing she can do is to ask for his help... to ask this playboy who she secretly despised in the past.

Boom!

A sound of thunder sounded outside the house in the hall, and a gust of cold wind penetrated into the house, blowing out the candles in the hall.

Mu Zhian was about to get up and light the candles, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a delicate hand gently placed on the back of his hand.

The cool and soft touch made him startled for a moment, and he subconsciously turned his head to look.

The lightning flashed at exactly this moment, lighting up Bai Ruoxi's delicate and flawless face.

She gently unbuttoned the two buttons on the front of her collar, gently held one of Mu Zhian's hands with both hands, her eyes filled with charm, and said softly:

"During the day, Master Mu said that he needs to be able to impress his own interests...is this answer enough now?"

"..."

Mu Zhian fell into a brief daze.

He thought about Bai Ruoxi's various reactions after being rejected by him, but this step he took was a bit beyond his expectation...

Bai Ruoxi is a very arrogant beauty. If there are three places in Tianxuan City to enter the Liangyi Sect, then Bai Ruoxi's talent will definitely occupy one of them.

There have always been many people pursuing Bai Ruoxi. This woman is the dream lover of most teenagers in Tianxuan City.

Mu Zhian frowned slightly, gently squeezed Bai Ruoxi's palm, coughed slightly, and said, "Miss Bai, I'm not that kind of person."

Bai Ruoxi bit her lip lightly and glanced at Mu Zhian secretly, her beautiful eyes filled with mist, but she did not break away from Mu Zhian's hand.

After all, such preparations have already been made.

But, is he going to do it in the lobby...

Bai Ruoxi's cheeks gradually turned red, and she felt a little resistant and helpless.

The reason for the resistance is that although Mu Zhian is handsome, what he did in the past is really annoying.

The helplessness is that the Bai family is in crisis now, and she has no right to choose.

Bai Ruoxi closed her eyes slightly as if appointed, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slightly raised her almost flawless face. Under the candlelight in the hall, her soft lips had a bit more elastic luster.

Mu Zhian stared at Bai Ruoxi slightly, then sighed softly and let go of Bai Ruoxi's soft, cool and smooth hand.

Bai Ruoxi woke up from the daze just now, raised her head slightly, looked at Mu Zhian's handsome profile, her eyes full of confusion, and whispered: "Master Mu...?"

"Miss Bai, you may have misunderstood what I said," Mu Zhian took a sip of the teacup and sighed: "I said during the day that you should give a value that can impress the Mu family, not a value that can impress me."

This sentence seems to make no difference, but in fact it is very different.

If it were Mu Zhian himself, he would be able to accept Bai Ruoxi or Tongmai Pills. It would be better to say that he would be very happy to have a beautiful woman throw herself into his arms.

But if you want the Mu family to come forward, you can only take out something valuable to trade.

"You are a very beautiful girl."

Mu Zhian looked at the girl's smooth face. This face was so perfect that people suspected it was created by God, but at this time there was a trace of sadness in her beautiful eyes. If ordinary people saw it, they would probably feel pity.

"Girls are charming because of their modesty and elegance. Miss Bai was so charming because of her temperament."

"So you should take better care of yourself."

Mu Zhian reached across the table, pushed her hair behind her ears, and then gently patted her shoulder.

"As for the Bai family...this matter is not something you can handle with your current ability, give up."

Bai Ruoxi was stunned.

I was...rejected?

She had never thought that the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan City would throw herself into the arms of a man, but was rejected...and the other party was the famous lecher in Tianxuan City.

This is simply a joke, a ridiculous joke!

If it gets out, no one will believe that Mu Zhian would actually reject the eldest lady of the Bai family.

Mu Zhian glanced at the maid Wei Mengrou who had stood in the shadow at the door at some point, and said calmly: "Sister Mengrou, please send Miss Bai back."

As he spoke, he blinked at Wei Mengrou again, as if to say: Do you think I behaved like a gentleman just now?

The slender Wei Mengrou stood at the door of the hall with a sword on her back, and her half-long hair draped over her shoulders seemed to add a bit of heroic spirit to her.

After taking a look at this gentle and handsome boy, and noticing his eyes that said "How did you see me behave just now", Wei Mengrou curled her lips in disdain and moved her eyes away from him.

In response, Mu Zhian just smiled and didn't care.

There was nothing he could do about it. The image of the bully Mu Zhian was too deeply rooted in people's hearts before, and it was unlikely that he would change his image in a short period of time. However, if he could persist, he should be able to change his image of a bully in the maid's mind.

Wei Mengrou looked at Bai Ruoxi and said calmly, "Miss Bai, come with me."

Bai Ruoxi was still in a trance. When she heard Wei Mengrou's voice, she stood up and walked slowly towards the door.

After walking three or two steps, her footsteps paused slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she turned her head to look at the young man behind her and whispered, "Master Mu, is there really no other way?"

The tone of voice seemed to have lost the contempt for Mu Zhian during the day, and her eyes were even more complicated.

This young man really changed overnight. Originally, according to her guess, Mu Zhian's target should be her... But now it seems that she was just being sentimental.

Seeing that Mu Zhian did not answer, Bai Ruoxi's smile became even more sad.

Without the help of the Mu family, this time, the Bai family might have a hard time getting through the difficult times.

She bowed politely to Mu Zhian and turned away.

At this time, Mu Zhian suddenly said: "I need to think about this matter again."

This matter involves the Gongsun family and the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce. If you rashly intervene, even if both parties will stop obediently, they will still be dissatisfied afterwards.

But it is impossible to really let the Bai family be suppressed. If such a large family is swallowed up by the Gongsun family and the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce, who knows if they will dare to target the Mu family next time?

Bai Ruoxi was slightly startled, and then a trace of joy flashed across his eyes, and he said: "...Thank you."

Mu Zhian waved his hand.

Bai Ruoxi understood in his heart and turned around to leave.

At this time, there was a faint noise outside.

"Let me in quickly, Ruoxi is in danger now!"

When he heard the high-pitched voice of the young man outside, Mu Zhian seemed to realize something, turned his head to look at Bai Ruoxi, and said with a smile: "It seems that your childhood sweetheart has come to save you."

Bai Ruoxi's childhood sweetheart is naturally the Ye family's former genius boy, but now a waste, Ye Yu.

Ye Yu, the 'protagonist', has appeared so early, am I about to trigger the face-slapping plot...Mu Zhian took a sip of the teacup and teased himself in his heart.

He turned his head to look outside the hall, and for some reason, he felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart.
