Chapter 309
In a sky-grade box, Murong Yuan was waiting with patience. She had informed her family through a secret Murong method. They would send someone there soon.
As expected, she heard a knock on the door. Mo Jianfei opened the door, and she heard him saying, “Uncle.”
“Father!”
Murong Yuan turned her head in surprise. She hadn’t expected her father to come personally.
“Daughter, 3,600 million yuan stones. What did you buy?!”
Murong Xiong greeted Mo Jianfei back casually and walked into the box. He looked helpless, but full of love for his daughter.
“If the elders of the family don’t agree to pay, I’ll have to take it from my personal account.”
“Yuan, you know what he was staring at?” said Mo Jianfei.
Murong Yuan glanced at Master Chu Yun and said, “Leave for a second.”
“You… You want me to leave?”
Mo Jianfei was surprised.
When he stared at Master Chu Yun again, he saw the master was looking at his fiancée’s bottom and legs.
Before Murong Yuan could sense it, he had looked away.
“Damn it!”
He had already nearly lost his temper when his father-in-law had shown his disdain for him earlier. Mo Jianfei couldn’t put up with it anymore. He was going to attack the master.
He was a master, but his strength was another story. Mo Jianfei could sense that the master was weaker than him.
“Young Master Mo, please hold your temper.”
Lin Rong stood in front of Jiang Chen to protect him. He was emitting an energy that wasn’t weak at all.
Then Mo Jianfei suddenly realized where he was. He knew it wouldn’t do him any good to draw his sword out.
“Jianfei, listen to me. Go outside for a second!” said Murong Yuan.
“Okay, okay. I’ll go outside!”
Mo Jianfei gnashed his teeth and left reluctantly.
Murong Yuan looked anxious, but her family’s fate was her first priority, so she looked towards Master Chu Yun with regret.
After Mo Jianfei had left, Jiang Chen said sincerely, “Miss Murong, I meant no offense. It’s just, your beauty is so rarely seen in the Realm of Milky. I was being rude.”
“Eh…”
Murong Yuan was surprised. She actually liked his compliment. She sized the master up and found him handsome and elegant.
“It was Jianfei’s fault.”
Of course, she wouldn’t believe what Mo Jianfei had said. Besides, she knew the way she dressed was eye-catching.
She said gently, playing with her hair, “Master, thank you for the compliment. And master, you’re so young. That’s also rarely seen in the Realm of Nine Heavens.”
“Haha, Miss Murong, you’re so sweet.”
Jiang Chen gestured for her to sit down and poured some liquor for her. He said, “Please sit down. As a professional, if you have any doubts regarding the Heaven Pulse Elixir, Miss Murong, I’ll explain every detail to you.”
Murong Yuan hurried to sit down, although she was hesitant and debated whether to fetch her fiancé or not.
“Steward Lin, please bring us some snacks,” said Jiang Chen.
Like this, only he and Murong Yuan were left in the box. It was easy for those outside to think dirty thoughts.
Murong Yuan felt uneasy. She regretted not bringing the cape with her.
“Weird.”
Lin Rong was confused. As far as he knew, this master wasn’t a womanizer. Why was he acting so different around Murong Yuan?
Not only Lin Rong, but also Mo Jianfei, had noticed the master’s dirty looks.
“Maybe?”
Something occurred to Lin Rong, as if he suddenly understood.
He knew some men had different tastes. They liked beautiful women who had boyfriends. They liked to be the other man in a relationship.
Lin Rong became more certain about it when he recalled how Mo Jianfei had been irritated.
He saw Mo Jianfei walking absentmindedly downstairs in passing. He had assumed the latter was expecting Murong Yuan, but some time had passed, and Mo Jianfei was obviously worried.
When he saw Lin Rong, his expression became especially interesting.
For a moment, Lin Rong thought he saw a green hat on Mo Jianfei’s head.
