It turns out, they are the protagonists 64

Chapter 64: Crash? How Can I, Mu Zhi’an, Crash?

“This is a bit tricky…”

Mu Zhi’an leaned in the courtyard late at night, looking at the three letters in his hand, falling into a brief contemplation.

First of all, Bai Ruoxi’s invitation absolutely could not be refused again… Although that girl had a heart that could embrace the world, repeatedly challenging her patience was obviously a foolish thing to do.

As for Ye Lingxuan… Based on the girl’s vigilance towards him at that time, this letter was either written by Ye Qian or Ye Qian asked Ye Lingxuan to write it on her behalf.

If placed in modern times, Ye Qian would be the kind of silly and sweet junior who just entered school, getting captivated by a senior’s sweet talk, even developing a good impression or admiration.

And Ye Lingxuan’s background was extremely mysterious. She had probably been used to all kinds of flowery words since childhood and wouldn’t be moved just because Mu Zhi’an sent a snow lotus and said some nice words.

At most, her original extremely poor impression of him would become slightly better.

This invitation was also a rare opportunity for interaction.

Although Mu Zhi’an had no interest in girls without a huge heart, he was still a bit curious about the forces behind Ye Lingxuan.

Because once she passed the sect assessment, when Ye Lingxuan entered the Two Polarities Sect, with her beauty, she would probably quickly attract a large number of suitors.

So the question was, could he refuse Lan Mulian’s invitation…?

She had been shrinking in her “nest” like an ostrich before. This time, she finally took the initiative to want to go somewhere… If he refused her, there might not be such an opportunity to take Senior Sister out in the future.

“This is troublesome…”

Looking at the swaying snow lotuses in the courtyard, Mu Zhi’an sighed faintly.

He had previously given snow lotuses to Bai Ruoxi and others after careful consideration.

Bai Ruoxi had a delicate and cold personality and wouldn’t compete aggressively. Giving her a snow lotus, she wouldn’t deliberately take it out to show off.

Lan Mulian’s personality was also clear and cold. However, compared to Bai Ruoxi, Senior Sister was a reserved and noble person. Although she would occasionally express girlish emotions in her letters, she wouldn’t deliberately mention the snow lotus.

Moreover, the relationship between Senior Sister and him was still very pure now. Although there was a little ambiguity, it was still far from being a romantic relationship.

As for Ye Lingxuan, there was no need to mention her. That girl hadn’t completely changed her opinion of him, so it was even less likely for her to specially mention the snow lotus.

However…

Now all these people wanted to go to the Morning Glory Auction House in two days to bid for liuguang soil and preserve the snow lotus for a long time.

This was a big problem.

He couldn’t refuse any of these people because they were all very high-quality fish. If he refused, the fish might swim out of the pond.

But if he accepted all three people… it seemed a bit too busy to handle.

Even a time management master would have a hard time handling it… Thinking of this, Mu Zhi’an looked at the snow lotuses swaying in the soft moonlight in the pond and couldn’t help but sigh, saying, “Sister Mengrou, why did our Mu family bother to plant snow lotuses?”

Beside him, at some unknown time, the tall and charming Wei Mengrou quietly appeared from the shadows and glanced at him coldly, “Isn’t it because you plucked the snow lotuses in the courtyard and gave them to others that it turned out like this?”

At this point, her usually indifferent tone seemed to have a hint of schadenfreude.

Mu Zhi’an looked up at her, noticing the contemptuous gaze in Sister Maid’s eyes. Instead of getting angry, he revealed a knowing smile.

He imagined Wei Mengrou later being forced to stand in front of him under his orders, holding her skirt with both hands, her eyes glaring at him with a humiliated and contemptuous gaze like a maid…

Tsk tsk, just imagining that scene made one’s heart race.

Wei Mengrou said coldly, “Do you want to get intimate with the snow lotuses in the pond?”

Did she notice that I had some improper thoughts about her…?

Mu Zhi’an was slightly stunned, but he quickly understood.

Indeed, Wei Mengrou had experienced certain things in the past, so after entering the Spirit Refinement realm, she could more clearly sense the malice of others.

However, his feelings towards Wei Mengrou were not malicious.

He was just simply imagining what reaction Sister Maid would have after teasing her.

Although this imagination was not very realistic at the moment.

But in the future, it might not be the case.

Thinking of this, Mu Zhi’an suddenly said, “Sister Mengrou, you say this snow lotus…”

“This snow lotus represents loyalty and purity in love, similar to me?” Wei Mengrou looked at Mu Zhi’an indifferently and asked.

Mu Zhi’an shook his head with a smile and said, “What I mean is, if this snow lotus is plucked, how long will it take to wither?”

In fact, the Mu Manor hadn’t been cultivating snow lotuses for very long, and the previous Mu Zhi’an didn’t pay attention to this thing at all, so naturally, he didn’t know how long it would take for the snow lotus to wither.

Upon hearing this, Wei Mengrou pondered for a moment and said, “At least five days, at most ten days.”

Mu Zhi’an was slightly stunned and said, “Are there any exceptions?”

Wei Mengrou shook her head and said, “At least among the snow lotuses plucked from the Mu Manor, none have withered in less than five days.”

“That’s a bit strange…”

Mu Zhi’an frowned slightly and muttered to himself, “I remember the snow lotus I gave to Senior Sister was a few days ago… I forgot the exact number of days, but it was definitely not more than five days.”

But when he brought the second snow lotus to the inn at that time, the snow lotus in the vase had already withered.

Was it related to the change in environment, or… that snow lotus wasn’t the one he gave to Lan Mulian at all, but an artificial snow lotus cultivated by Yangfeng Inn?

If that were the case, where did the snow lotus he gave to Senior Sister go?

Wei Mengrou said indifferently, “Since you regret it now, you shouldn’t have given so many snow lotuses to other girls in the first place.”

Mu Zhi’an came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and said, “Indeed… In the future, I will only give snow lotuses to Sister Mengrou.”

Wei Mengrou snorted and said indifferently, “I don’t need them.”

She paused and continued, “If you want them, just pick them yourself.”

“The meaning is completely different,” Mu Zhi’an said.

“What do you plan to do now? Accept all four invitations?” Wei Mengrou asked.

Bai Ruoxi, Huang Manting, the Ye sisters, and Lan Mulian, the examiner who came down from the Two Polarities Sect. Although she despised Mu Zhi’an’s multi-threaded operation, she was also curious about how Mu Zhi’an planned to end it now.

“It’s actually very simple. I just need to reject them all,” Mu Zhi’an said with a smile.

“You plan to refuse them all?”

“No need to refuse,” Mu Zhi’an once again expressed contradictory literature.

“Indeed, I can’t solve this problem.”

Mu Zhi’an raised his head to glance at Wei Mengrou, but due to her towering heart, it was difficult to see that exquisite face.

He withdrew his gaze, looked sideways at the snow lotuses in the pond, and said with a smile, “However, I can solve the problem itself.”
